Morning meant new promises for Jack, and more torment for Hiccup. Hiccup let himself into Jack's house as quiet as a mouse, and went into his room. Jack was sleeping peacefully. Hiccup smiled gently, and walked over to the sleeping boy. He placed a feather-light kiss on Jack's forehead, and Jack smiled in his sleep.

Hiccup turned around, and if he had a heart, it would have skipped a beat. Jack had a dresser that had a mirror on top of it. What Hiccup saw, though, mortified him.

"Cute choice, Hic. –Toothless" was what a piece of paper read, that was taped to the mirror. Hiccup snatched it and stuffed it into his jacket pocket. He was starting to get more and more annoyed with his brother by the second. He walked over to Jack and ruffled his hair.

"Jack?" Hiccup said, shaking his shoulder. "Jack, it's time to wake up." He hated the feeling of acting like a mother, but it had to be done.

"Hiccup…?" Jack asked sleepily, a smile forming on his lips. "Waddaya doin' here so early?"

"Getting you up for school, idiot," Hiccup said lovingly.

"Shit…" Jack groaned, throwing himself back down on his bed. "Don't make me Hiccup…" Jack whined. Hiccup laughed, as he moved Jack around so he could stand him up.

"Get ready for school, you goof," Hiccup said good-naturedly.

Pretty soon, the pair were off to school. Classes went by as normal, Hiccup waiting for Jack, but the day seemed off. Hiccup was tense. Was Toothless stalking him? What was up with his ex-brother, anyway?

"Hey, Hic, are you okay?" Jack asked nervously, biting his bottom lip. "You seem a bit out of it today…"

"I'm fine," Hiccup replied easily. Jack raised his eyebrow. "No, seriously, I am. I'm not… sick again, if that's what you mean." Hiccup said, referring to his thirst for blood. Jack sighed.

"Good," Jack said, slipping his hand into his boyfriend's. "Are you sure you aren't telling me something?" Jack asked as he was ushered to his next class.

"Uh… my brother paid me a visit," Hiccup said, struggling to keep his face straight and his voice uncaring.

"You have a brother?" Jack asked, surprised. Well, this was the first he heard about this.

"Yeah, we sorta disowned each other like… two hundred years ago, give or take a few." Hiccup said. Jack pulled him to a halt, making a scene.

"So you aren't the only one with family issues, huh?" Jack said. He had problems with his own family; his uncle never at home, his parents death at a young age, his sister… Jack knew it was better to talk about these things. They gave you room to heal. But somehow he doubted that talking would patch up a wound that had two hundred years to fester.

"Tell me," Jack said, squeezing Hiccup's hand.

"I'll uh… tell you later," Hiccup said uncomfortably. He didn't want Jack to know about Toothless, but he knew his little dork; Jack was as stubborn as a mule, and always got his way… especially when it came to Hiccup, he was a sucker for those crystal blue eyes. But if you asked him, Hiccup would deny everything while Jack just laughed.

Jack sighed, planning to hold Hiccup to his word, and they trudged Jack the rest of the way to his class. Just as Jack was reaching for the classroom door, Hiccup pinned him to the wall and kissed him passionately. Jack didn't refuse until he needed oxygen, and by that exact moment, the bell rang.

"See ya after class, Snowflake," Hiccup purred. He pressed a chaste kiss on Jack forehead and let go of him, walking away briskly to get to his own class. Dazed and blushing like an idiot, Jack walked inside his classroom. No one asked why he was a second late.

Hiccup let out an unnecessary sigh. He wanted to let Jack know how much he cared before anything bad happened to either of them… if anything bad happened to either of them, Hiccup corrected. As long as Jack wasn't harmed, Hiccup would do what Toothless wanted without question.

"Hello, brother," someone drawled from a mid-morning shadow. Hiccup whipped around, spotting Toothless in the dark.

"What are you doing here?" Hiccup asked indifferently.

"Just checking up on my little brother, who's doing the right thing and getting an education! HA!" Toothless said, the last part of his sentence warped by a faux-innocent voice.

"Whatever, at least I'm smarter than you ever will be," Hiccup quipped. Toothless glared, his fangs flashing dangerously. Hiccup just chuckled; those things couldn't leave a dent in him. "What do you want? Seriously, this time?" Hiccup asked.

"I want you to come back, Hamish," Toothless said solemnly, using Hiccup's long-forgotten birth name. "I want us to fix what we broke all those years ago. I want us to be family again."

"I may be all that you have left, Timothy, but that doesn't mean that it's the same for me," Hiccup replied smoothly, dragging Toothless' birth name into the mix just to get even.

"What if I was all that you had left? What about then?" Toothless said, his fangs flashing again in an unearthly evil smile. Hiccup's expression hardened, his hands balling into fists.

"That's never going to happen," Hiccup growled, feeling his fangs peek out from his gums. "Not while I'm here, it's not."

"Getting angry, I see," Toothless said. "Come with me, little brother, and a single hair on your lover's head wouldn't be harmed."

"Fuck off, Timothy," Hiccup spat, speeding off back to Jack classroom. He would wait there for a thousand years just to see Jack walk out that door okay.

Toothless just smiled. They say love is stronger than death… He could prove that theory wrong. Once Jack has a little 'accident,' Hiccup would have nothing to live for, and be crawling back to Toothless. And then Red Death would be happy. Red Death could get what he wants. Red Death could have his army. All Toothless had to do was wait… it was easy for him now, though; Toothless spent one hundred years waiting for Hiccup to fall in love with one of the mortals he fought so hard to protect, a couple days was nothing to him.

oh geez... I realized how bad of a chapter ending this was. im so sorry. I hope you all love it though! Please review (flames accepted)
