Dagur sped through the streets on his motorbike, breaking multiple laws all at once. He was briefly aware of drivers yelling profanities at him, but he really didn't care right now. Something was wrong with Hicca, and he was determined to get to her as soon as possible.
She had called him at 7 in the morning, ridiculously early in Dagur's opinion. He'd answered with a yawn, his sleepy words coming out as a strange mix of 'Hello?', 'What's going on?' and 'Who is this?'
But Hicca's voice had come across shaky and very quiet, "H-Hi, Dagur. S-Sorry to wake you."
Straight away Dagur's instincts forced him into a more awake state, even though it was unbelievably early, Hicca didn't sound tired.
She sounded upset.
So, at 7:10 in the morning, Dagur was speeding down the roads on his motorbike.
As soon as he spotted the Haddock house, he skidded to a fault in the drive way, kicked down the stand, and raced towards the front door while ripping off his helmet. Thankfully, Stoick's car wasn't in the drive way, he must be working the early shift at the police station.
Normally he would use his usual entrance of Hicca's bedroom, but something told him the front door would be better this time. He hurriedly knocked on the door and took a second to catch his breath, his foot tapping impatiently during the mere seconds it took for Hicca to answer the door.
When Hicca finally opened the door, Dagur lunged forward and swooped her up in a hug, lifting her a good foot off the ground.
"D-Dagur!" Hicca squeaked as she was hugged tightly and lifted off the ground. "W-What are you doing here so early?"
"I rushed over when I got your call," Dagur explained as he gently put her down. "Are you okay, did something happen?"
Dagur's worry only grew as Hicca looked away nervously. "Let's sit down, I need to talk to you."
She took his larger hand in his and led him into the living room. They sat down on the large sofa, neither saying anything for the moment. Dagur was waiting anxiously for her to speak, while Hicca struggled to find the right words.
Eventually, Dagur couldn't take the silence any longer. "So... What did you want to talk about?" His head already spinning with possibilities.
"Well..." She started quietly. "You... You know how I wasn't feeling well last week?"
Dagur nodded, the same day Fishlegs had found out about them, the poor girl had been throwing up and feeling really tired all day.
"Well... Yesterday... I... I was supposed to... um..." Hicca looked up at Dagur's blank face and gave a sigh. "What I'm trying to say is... I'm late."
"Late?"
"Yeah, late."
"Late for what?"
Hicca gave another sigh, "Dagur... I was supposed to start my period yesterday... And I didn't."
Another few minutes of silence passed, Dagur's face remained blank, then a frown slowly started to form.
"Wait... That's not normal, is it?" Hicca shook her head. "So... Does that mean...?"
Hicca looked down at her hands, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a small white stick. Dagur soon recognised it as a pregnancy test he'd seen advertised on TV. Hicca held it up for him to see the small purple cross at one end.
Dagur's eyes flickered between Hicca and the positive test, "You... You're... Pregnant?"
Hicca nodded silently.
The two sat there for long while, just thinking.
Hicca was pregnant. Pregnant. With child, bun in the oven, pregnant. Dagur's eyes flickered to Hicca's stomach. His baby was in there, tiny Dagur, a little monster.
They really should have been more careful. Hicca was on the pill, so the thought of protection had never really crossed Dagur's mind. Of course they'd used a condom the first few times, but once they started getting a little more... adventurous, they started to forget. They had been too lost in the moment, too caught up in the euphoria and excitement, they just didn't think about it.
And now that was coming to bite them on the ass.
They weren't ready for a child. They were both still in school, with jobs and studies to worry about, no way they could raise a child as well. Dagur glanced over at the auburn haired girl beside him, it would be even worse for her. Hicca would have to carry a baby inside of her for 9 months, she'd have to deal with all the whispers and weird looks as her stomach grew. Not to mention the pain and stress as the baby grew, and the actual birth.
And oh god, what would Stoick say!?
He really would kill Dagur now. The large man would no doubt be livid at the thought of Dagur defiling his little girl. He could just arrest Dagur and send him to prison for some kind of made up charge. Given the power Stoick had in the police force, he could do just that with no questions asked.
Dagur looked over at Hicca again. She sat next to him, one hand gripping with the test while the other idle fiddled with the material of her T-shirt, she looked down at the floor while her long hair hid her face from view. But even if he could see her face, he had no doubt her expression would be full of worry and fear.
He took a deep breath. He was the father of that baby, he had to man-up and make a decision.
Dagur suddenly stood from the sofa and straightened his jacket, a serious look on his face. Before Hicca could ask anything, he walked out of the living room and out the house, shutting the front door behind him.
Hicca just sat the in surprise for a moment, it was fine if Dagur needed some fresh air, she couldn't blame him. But something didn't feel right. Hicca's worry suddenly sky-rocketed when she heard the sound of a motorbike start up.
She race over to the front door and yanked it open, just in time to see Dagur racing off down the street, leaving skid-marks in his wake.
Her heart was pounding as she watched him go, too stunned to move from her spot at the front door.
He'd left.
Dagur has just... left.
She started breathing harder as her heart started to break apart, her legs gave way as it shattered into pieces. She didn't even try to hold back tears , she just sat in the open door way and wept. The man she loved, the one who had promised to support and love her no matter what, had abandoned her.
She didn't move for a while, her legs still feeling too weak to support her. But as the neighbours started to emerge from their homes, she hurried back inside, she didn't want to risk anyone seeing her. She shut the door and slowly staggered up the stairs to her room, her steps slowing more and more until she collapsed on the bed, exhaustion taking over as she curled in on herself.
At some point, Toothless, the black cat, crept into her room and curled up against her back. But she was too far gone to notice, she just lay there and fell into a fitful sleep, her cheeks still damp from tears.
A few hours later, she was awoken by a large hand on her shoulder. She blinked to clear her vision and tilted her head up to look at the clock. It was already 5 in the afternoon, and her father was home early.
"Hicca, are you alright? Your eyes are all red," Stoick asked with concern as he leaned over her, one strong hand on her shoulder.
Instead of answering, Hicca just gave in to tears again, her heart still split in two and still painful. She quickly sat up and wrapped her arms around her father, burying her face into his chest and letting tears fall again. Stoick's mind ran wild from concern to full on worry, Hicca was not the kind of person who just broke down for no reason. But now, she was truly crying like she had lost something precious.
Stoick wrapped his large arms around her, holding her close and encompassing her completely. He shushed her gently, like he used to do when she was a baby, thankfully it still worked, and her crying slowly settled. "Hicca, please, tell me what's wrong."
Hicca pulled back and wiped her eyes, a few more tears and hiccups slipping out. "I-I'm sorry... I-I didn't think this would happen... I thought..." More tears started to flow as Hicca stuttered through her words.
But Stoick sat patiently and rubbed her back calmingly, "What are you apologising for?"
Hicca took another deep breath, it had been hard enough to tell Dagur, now she had to tell her dad, this wouldn't be easy. "Um... dad... you know how last week, I really wasn't feeling well? I was throwing up and feeling really tired." Stoick nodded slowly, giving Hicca time to get her words right. "Well... I didn't... yesterday, something wasn't right. So this morning... I took a pregnancy test."
Stoick's whole body tensed up, Hicca could feel her father's hand stop moving on her back. She couldn't say anything else, and didn't dare move, there was no telling what her father would do or say.
But eventually, Stoick took a deep breath and turned Hicca to face him. "I'm guessing that boy, Dagur, is the father?"
Hicca nodded.
"And this wasn't planned."
Hicca's shoulders slumped as she nodded again.
"Have you told him yet?"
At that question, Hicca felt another wave of sadness was over her again. She started crying again, and fell into her father's embrace as he held her a stroked her back.
She was so thankful that her father hadn't reacted badly, he hadn't flown into a rage or disowned her. But who would he react when he found out Dagur had just left her? She really didn't know.
But she did have to tell him. Amongst chokes and hiccups, she told him what had happened that morning. How she had taken the test and called Dagur, he'd come over and they'd talked, and then how Dagur had left without saying a word. Stoick's grip on her tightened, he was understandably furious that Dagur had hurt his little girl in such a despicable way.
But he had to remain calm for Hicca, his anger could wait while she needed the support.
Once her cries had settled again, he gently pulled her back and spoke as softly as he could. "Sweetheart, do you have any more of those pregnancy tests?" She nodded while wiping away tears. "Go take a few more tests just to be sure. I'll make you something to drink, and then we can talk about what you want to do, okay?"
Hicca nodded with a sniff, finally starting to calm down. The two strode from the bed and walked out of the room, Toothless trailing behind Hicca as she went to the bathroom, while Stoick went down stair to make her some tea. He, on the other hand, was going to need something much stronger. Just wait until he got his hands on that boy.
But no sooner had her stepped down stairs did the sound of a motorbike reach his ears, and it was getting closer. Stoick slowly turned towards the door, he squared his shoulders and cracked his knuckles. After what he had done, Dagur dared to show his face again so soon. Stoick briefly glanced to his police issue fire arm, but then decided against it. His bare fists would do the trick.
He waited as the motorbike sounds came closer and closer to the house, until they were right outside. Then he yanked open the front door and stormed over to Dagur. The teen male had his back turned as he pulled out a couple of plastic bags from the back of his bike, so the sudden large hand on his shoulder and booming voice in his ear took him completely by surprise.
"You've got a lot of nerve showing your face here, boy!" The large man roared at him, his face red with anger, and knuckles white from clenching so tightly.
For once, Dagur actually felt a small shiver of fear race up his spine. "S-Stoick? You're back early."
Instead of answering, Stoick gripped both of his forearms tightly, and picked him right off the ground. It must have been a very peculiar sight for any of their neighbours.
"Hey! Put me down! I can walk by myself!" Dagur struggled while still gripping the two carrier bags tightly.
But Stoick carried him with ease, regardless of his struggling. He walked into the house and dropped Dagur onto the hardwood floor without a second thought, then he turned a locked the front door behind him. He turned back to looked down at Dagur with murderous eyes
"Do you have any idea of the damage you caused!? The pain you've brought to my daughter!?" He growled as he folded his arms over her chest.
A guilty look crossed Dagur's face as he picked himself off the floor, "Yeah, I know. I didn't mean to get her pregnant, we just weren't thinking."
Stoick gave a grumble under his breath, Dagur expected to start seeing smoke any second now. "I'm not just talking about her being pregnant. What I'm really furious at, is the way you just walked out and left her here. You're the father of her child, and you're not leaving here until you agree to take responsibility. However, I don't want you sticking around a second longer if you're just going to hurt her again, but at the very least you're going to pay for anything and everything she needs during the pregnancy. If I had my way you'd spend the remainder of your life apologizing and trying to make it up to her for your actions."
"Whoa! Whoa! Hold on!" Dagur was finally able to cut in with a shout. "What makes you think I just walked out and left her?"
"Because that's exactly what you did!" Stoick yelled back.
"Dagur?"
The two males turned in surprise to find Hicca standing at the bottom of the stairs, Toothless cycling around her heals, and an unsure look on her face.
As soon as Dagur's eyes landed on the auburn haired girl, his face lit up in a huge grin. "Hey, Hicca!" He rushed over to her with a smile, but as he drew closer, Hicca took a step back.
"Dagur... What are you doing back here?"
Dagur stopped and looked at her in surprise, "What? Of course I'm back. I said I would be."
"No, you didn't." Hicca's voice shook slightly as she tried to glare at him. "You didn't say anything, you just left."
After a few seconds, Dagur's eyes slowly widened, a look of dread creeping onto his features. "Oh... Uh, oh... That's explains a few things..."
Hicca frowned and glanced over Dagur's shoulder, throwing her father a questioning look, but he just returned with a small shrug. Neither of them knew what to think.
Suddenly, Dagur shot forward and wrapped his arms tightly around Hicca, holding her as tightly as he could, as if he was afraid she was going to disappear from right in front of him. "I'm so sorry..." He said with a shaky voice. Hicca had never heard him sound like that before, without his confident tone, Dagur didn't sound like himself.
"I never meant to make you think that. When you told me... I was just so surprised, excited, and... I guess scared too. I forgot to actually say something... I-I meant to say I'd be right back, I thought I told you where I was going, but I think my brain just got too overwhelmed to actually say the words out loud."
Dagur gently pulled back to look at Hicca, her eyes were wide and shiny, as if she was going to start crying all over again. "I'm so sorry I'm made you feel this way. I never want to leave you, and I definitely never want to make you upset. I'm so, so sorry, Hicca."
Finally, Hicca able to give a small smile, she leaned forward and pressed her forehead to his. "I forgive you. I should have known you wouldn't just leave like that, you're too brave to run away." Dagur gave a small chuckle, he leaned back and pressed a small kiss to Hicca's forehead. "So... where did you go?" She asked quietly.
"Oh, that's right!" Dagur suddenly jumped back. He lifted up the two plastic bags he'd been carrying, "I got these for you."
Hicca took one of the bags and looked inside. Both bags were filled with boxes of medicine, books pamphlets, even some packs of diapers and baby bottles.
"Dagur, what is all this?" Hicca asked in surprise.
The dark haired male rubbed the back of his head nervously. "It took me a while to find everything. I went to the mall and started buying all the baby stuff I could think of, eventually one of the girls who worked there saw me struggling and offered to help. She told me about all these vitamins that'll help the baby, and there's some medicine for you to help the pain. I also found these pamphlets about what we need to do during the 9 months and what we should look out for, there's also loads of websites we can look at. Oh, I also found this book called '101 pregnancy dishes', apparently there's a lot of stuff you can't eat and drink while preg-"
Dagur was cut off from his rambling when Hicca threw her arms around him, standing on tip toes with her face buried in his shoulder.
"Dagur... I'm not pregnant."
The two males both looked at her with wide eyes.
"I took a few more tests, and they all came out negative. I think the first one was just a false-positive."
Hicca pulled back and looked at Dagur, her expression seemed... almost guilty. After all the trouble that had happened today, it turned out to be all for nothing.
Dagur was silent for a moment. "Oh... But... weren't you supposed to start your... you know what... yesterday?"
The shorter girl gave a small giggle at Dagur's inability to say the word 'period' without blushing. "It turns out my new birth control is causing a bit of trouble in my cycle. I'm sorry for all the trouble."
He returned the small laugh and took her smaller hand in his, "It wasn't any trouble. If... When... We have a child someday, I want to do everything I can to help. "
Hicca stood up on her tip toes again and planted a small kiss to the tip of Dagur's nose, "I love you."
"I love you too," Dagur leaned down to give her a peck on the forehead again.
The two turned at the sound of a gruff voice clearing, they'd almost forgotten Stoick was still standing behind them. He stood awkwardly for a moment before speaking, "Um, Dagur... Sorry about the... um, you know."
"You mean the yelling, picking me up off the ground, and carrying me inside?" Dagur asked.
"Yes... that." Stoick gave a nod before excusing himself to the kitchen. Leaving Dagur and Hicca to hug and hold each other in the hallway.
The End.
