AN: Whoa guys, 100 reviews?! You guys are amazing, really. I know I say this a lot, but I truly mean it. I love you guys, you are all amazing.

So, if I plotted out the chapters right.. This may be over at 20 chapters. Which, I know wasn't as long as my last multi-chapter. But I've got more planned for HiJack, and I may do a voting on what to do next. Plus there's still Apocalypse, which I really need to work on the next chapter for.


Tangled Up With Cupid

Chapter Eleven; Avoidance


Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, and if there was one thing Hiccup hated about going to school, single, around Valentine's Day is the way everyone puts their relationships on display like it's some fucking show. No one wants to watch you make out, no one cares where your boyfriend is taking you, and if someone wants to buy a ticket to the school dance then they'll go buy one. They don't need flyers taped everywhere to remind them over and over.

Okay, so Hiccup really isn't that happy go lucky about Valentines. But, he's sure other single people knows how he feels right about now. Especially, when it seems Astrid is actually falling for Snotlout's advances.

Or, that Hiccup can't look Jack in the eyes anymore. Whenever he see's the white haired teen, all he can remember is the way his lips felt on his. How honestly, all Hiccup wants to do is take his hand and ask him to kiss him again. But he shouldn't be feeling like that, he should want to feel that way towards Astrid.

His head is just all so messed up and all he really wants to do is crawl into a dark hole. He can hardly pay attention to classes, and he's already ripped the same pink flyer off his locker. If someone is trying to hint that they want to go to the dance with him, all their really doing is pissing him off further.

He's never hated a Monday so much in his life.

And Hiccup isn't the only one who's getting tired of the day. Jack wasn't able to sleep at all the night before, his mind rolling back to the kiss he's shared with Hiccup. He's kissed many girls, even one boy in the past. But never, never, has he felt like that for someone. It's a strong, confusing feeling. Something he's never felt before.

But he has no idea what that feeling is. It's like, a warmth fills him when he thinks about the freckled boy. And he feels like there's just.. a bunch of tiny wings, fluttering around in his stomach. And then all he wants to do is kiss Hiccup again.

Flynn is taking notice to the way his friends are acting. They can't look each other in the face, their words to each other are short, with a lot of awkward pauses. There's something. Something off about the two, and he feels like he's missed something important.

"Is something wrong with Jack and Hiccup?" He questions Rapunzel during lunch.

He first looks to the table Jack is sitting at, eyeing how Jack is just pushing his food about on his tray. It seems his friends have noticed his weird mood, Ana leaning over to place her hand on his shoulder, eyebrow raised as she questions him.

Then, Flynn looks over to Hiccup. His jaw is clenched, and Flynn's curious if he's pissed about how close Astrid and Snotlout are sitting, or if it's something else. Raising an eyebrow, Rapunzel follows her boyfriends gaze. She can see that Hiccup does seem upset, and Jack doesn't seem far off. Turning her head, she meets concerned brown eyes.

"Yeah, kind of." She answers.

Nodding, Flynn's glad she see's it as well. "What do you think it is?"

Tapping her fingers on the table, Rapunzel tries to think. It could be the fight between Elsa and Anna? Anna told her all about it, so she may have told Jack about Elsa's reaction. And Rapunzel's only pinpointing the Astrid thing as Hiccup's issue. But, it really could be anything bothering the two of them. Pursing her lips, she shrugs.

"Could be anything." She says.

Their both caught off guard when Hiccup stands, and his friends are just as surprised, all of them watching him. He walks swiftly from the table, and Flynn catches how Jack looks over at him.

Yeah, some things definitely going on.

. . . .

Jack goes straight home after school and as soon as he walks into the house, just wants to crawl into his bed and sleep the week away. He drops his backpack by the front door, telling himself he'll get it before his parents come home. Emma won't be home with her after school activities, so it leaves the house all to himself for a few hours.

Grabbing a snack from the kitchen, he plops himself onto the couch. Even though he turns the TV on, he finds himself not wanting it. Rather, he's thinking about everything that's happened today.

Why is he avoiding Hiccup? It was a kiss, it wasn't like they had sex or anything. But maybe Hiccup didn't feel comfortable with it, maybe he was worried that Jack would start assuming they were dating because they kissed. Which, sounds kind of dumb. But, it's plausible, right? It could explain why Hiccup won't even look him in the face.

But, maybe he's being a little self-centered that it's about him. He saw how angry Hiccup seemed during lunch, maybe something has just been bothering him all day.

'That could explain it.'

Chip held between his teeth, Jack pulls his phone out of his pocket. He debates on texting Hiccup, and at first isn't sure. He doesn't want to be seen as some clingy, jealous girlfriend. But fuck it, their friends, friends are allowed to be concerned about friends. So, he texts the freckled teen a simple hey, before moving to place his phone on the side table.

Until it vibrates in his hand. That was fast.

Hey Jack!

Nevermind, it's not Hiccup. Anna's been texting him since the date, complaining even more on Sunday about her sister. Seems a fight happened between the siblings, Elsa unhappy with Anna 'dating' Jack.

He never asked her to be his girlfriend, they've only had one date. But all of a sudden she's up his ass, asking when she'll next see him or how she has dreams about him. His texts have lately been limited to one words, but she doesn't seem to think that it's anything bad. She just goes off about different things, and half the time he can't pay attention.

Tempted to ignore her text, his conscious fights him. He's just too nice to ignore a person, which is why he's having such a problem with Hiccup avoiding him. Because he hated feeling invisible in the past, and he won't feel that way again.

Sending a text back to Anna, he only hopes she believes that he's going to take a nap and not start spamming him with more text messages. She's a nice girl, really, she is. But he just can't find himself to not get annoyed with how often she texts him. And he's pretty sure she has yet to take any hints that he's just not that interested in her romantically. They had one date, it was alright. But there just wasn't any sparks flying, fireworks blooming feelings.

At least, there weren't for him. But he's heard otherwise from her.

Rolling onto his stomach, he presses his face into one of the couch cushions. And while he tries not to think about Hiccup, his mind is wandering back to how the other boy had stormed out of the cafeteria and that was the last anyone had seen of him. Maybe he was sick and went to leave early? That could explain why he left like that.

But it just doesn't explain why he was avoiding Jack. But really, why is Jack so annoyed with this? They've never really talked much in the past, but well.. He's sure he felt something after that kiss.

He's got to talk to Anna though, has to inform her that there just isn't anything between the two of them. Rolling back onto his back, his hand searches for where he dropped his phone onto the floor. Picking it up, he see's that Anna's sent him two messages. One's an okay, while the other one is 'dream about me!'

And it's clear, that he's got to end whatever this is between the two of them.

We need to talk, he sends her. Before requesting if he can go over to her house. He can't avoid her like Hiccup is avoiding him, he needs to let her know that he just doesn't see her as a girlfriend. He wants to just be friends with her.


I apologize that this chapter is really short.. But it will be longer in the next, promise.

TheShadows2523 - I'm glad to see you've caught this one while it's still going! And I'm glad to see you're enjoying it.

Aangelik - Oh, I know. I ended up working on this chapter very late into the week because I was very distracted with Tumblr. But I mean, I'm a little fine with it. I'm finally getting out of my awkward shy phase and talking to people in the fandom.

Kitty.0 - The title for last chapter could be seen for both Anna and HiJack. Elsa is upset with Anna because she barely knows him, while Hiccup and Jack don't really know each other that well either. They have mutual friends, but it's only recent that they're hanging out and getting to know each other. So in a way, they barely know each other and yet they're already developing feelings.
