Chapter 7: The Date
Merida's POV
I sat on the bed. I was absolutely terrified. I've been wanting to be with Hiccup for the longest time, and now it's coming true.
I heard a knock on the door. Rapunzel peeked her head in.
"Merida, you going to be late for your date!" She said as she walked in.
"Rapunzel, I can't."
"Why?" She said, looking at me curiously.
"I've been dreaming about this for such a long time. What if it isn't everything I thought it was?"
Rapunzel sat down next to me. "I was exactly where you are now. I had dreamed my entire life to see the floating lanterns on my birthday. And when I finally did. It was everything I did dream of. So yes it will be."
"And if it is?"
"Well as Eugene said, that's the good part. You get to find a new dream."
That made me feel so much better. I hugged her.
"Thank you, for making my dream come true.

Hiccup's POV
Jack and I were setting up the picnic that Merida and I were going to have.
"Hiccup, are you sure about this?" He asked.
"I'm sure. Astrid would want me to move on."
"Well ok."
I set down the last piece of food down.
"Ok, all done."
Toothless came bouncing over to me.
"Ok bud, let's go get her."
"Good luck, Hiccup." Jack shouted as I flew away
...
Merida's POV
I waited outside of the base. I knew he was coming.
Just then Toothless landed in front of me.
"Hi Hiccup." I said.
"Hop on." He said.
I ran over to him. He helped me up onto Toothless.
I wrapped my arms around him.
"Hang on."
Toothless flew into the sky. The cool breeze felt amazing. We flew over to the far side of the island. There was a beautiful candlelight dinner waiting.
Toothless landed. Hiccup got off and helped me off.
"You ok?" He asked.
"Yeah I am."
...
We sat and ate and talked. The night was beautiful. The moon was shining down.
I got up and walks out to the sea. I heard Hiccup get up and walk over to me.
"Merida, can I ask? Have you ever been in love before?"
"In Love? No, but rumors fly and you don't know where to start. Specially when it concerns a person's heart. I've heard tales that could set my heart a glow. I just wish I knew if the things I heard are so."
They say that falling in love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And with a moon up above it's wonderful
It's wonderful, so they tell me
I can't recall who said it
I know I've never read it
I only know they tell me that love is grand
And
The thing that's known as romance is wonderful
Wonderful, In ev'ry way,
So they say.
Hiccup turned me around and began to sing to me.
Rumors fly and they often leave a doubt
But you've come to the right place to find out
Everything that you've heard is really so
I've been there once or twice and I should know
You'll find that falling in love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And with a moon up above, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, as they tell you
You leave your house some morning
And without any warning
You're stopping people shouting that love is grand
And
He then began to wrap his arms around me.
To hold a man in your arms is wonderful
Wonderful, in ev'ry way
I should say!
I just stood there in his arms for what seemed like forever.
I then let go and looked up at him. He leaned in and our lips met.
I became dazed. The feeling of being kissed was amazing.
He deepened the kiss. It felt even more amazing.
He pulled back. I just stop there dazed.
"You're right." I whispered. "It is wonderful."
Well, this is getting good.
Let me know what you think
