There was a tap on the window it was promptly followed by more taps, like tiny little feet were walking all over the glass, stomping and trying to get inside. The taps turned into large raindrops, they hit the window and flowed down until they hit the ledge, forming a small pool at the base, which slowly begun to grow in size. Rapunzel yawned and listened to the endless patter of rain against the window, sleep was still clawing at her eyes and everything felt fuzzy and dark, she yawned again turning to look out to the cold light of morning. Although the air outside her blanket and quilt was cool, it seemed more inviting than the stifling and sweaty heat of the bed, so she got up, carelessly throwing the bed covers against the wall. She shivered, suddenly wanting to get back into the warmth of the bed. Taking a few steps forward she turned to glance in the direction of her sleeping friend Merida, she hid a small giggle. The girl was snoring quietly, her violin perched on the bed side table leaning dangerously over the edge, Rapunzel crept over and -careful not wake her - moved the instrument to a safer location on the floor, she took one last glance before exiting the room.
She stepped into the kitchen and found Hiccup already awake, he seemed to be trying to turn the heating on but looked confused with the controls, she walked over smiling as he noticed her. "Morning, heating's not working." He said still fiddling with the wires in the device. "Why don't we light the fire instead?" She replied indicating towards the wood burner in the centre of the room. Hiccup nodded and walked towards it bringing out a match box as he did so, Rapunzel shivered again and made her way to the cooker, she turned the handle sighed as a warm heat erupted filling the air with a gassy comfort. Rapunzel turned the flame to a higher setting before going to the fridge and getting four eggs from the rack, shutting to door to avoid another shiver. Both Jack and Merida could be heard in the hall, both complaining about the cold rainy morning, she laid the eggs on plates and set them on the table, Hiccup had lit the fire and was warming his hands she walked over and sat next to him. "Rain sucks." He commented looking out the window rather than the fire, Rapunzel held her hands out and grinned as warmth spread through her fingers and up her arms. "Maybe we could have an inside day till the rain calms down." She suggested.
The rain did not cool down till the afternoon, during the morning the four had played endless games of cards, which mostly involved gambling games Hiccup and Merida had picked up while touring the states, by the end Jack and Merida were shouting at each other for cheating, apparently Jack had peaked at Merida's cards and Merida had taken revenge by ripping one of his cards in two and spoiling the game. Rapunzel sat quietly while Merida and Jack argued and Hiccup tried to voice reason, which only seemed to make the matter worse, she stared out the window and watched as the grey clouds faded into a pale blue sky. The rain slowed to a halt then stopped entirely. Rapunzel frowned and walked to the door, she opened it and breathed in the fresh air, almost forgetting that the argument was still going on behind her. "Guys." She said, frowning as no one responded. "Hey guys look at this." Rapunzel tried louder as the argument continued, annoyed, she walked over and stood between Jack and Merida, both to their surprise. "The. Rain. Has. Stopped." She said loudly with a hint of anger in her voice. She moved out of the way as a landslide made of Merida, Jack and Hiccup charged to the door, all grinning madly at the joy of the fresh air, the past few moments were suddenly forgotten, then Hiccup came up with an idea. "Hey, if we hurry we can still make it to the fireworks display tonight?"
There was a flurry of changing clothes and packing bags in the next few minutes, Rapunzel ended up wearing a blue crop top with skinny jeans and her converse, while Merida stayed in a large comfy dark green jumper and leggings, she looked both cute and causal, which suited her. Merida also carried a small rucksack filled with chocolate and money for more chocolate, despite Rapunzel's advice to save money for more important things. The two gathered their rucksacks and met Hiccup and Jack in the kitchen. The four left and made way for the town.
They made it to the centre in good time, the market was light with bright glowing lights which warmed the atmosphere, already people were out and the streets were full. Rapunzel had a hard time staying with the rest of the group and in the end she was walking with Jack, she tried not to look at him and instead looked around her surroundings. They walked for awhile not close enough to look like a couple but far enough apart to look like friends, Jack spoke first. "Hey, you wanna go somewhere quieter? I know a great place where we can watch the fireworks." Rapunzel allowed herself to be dragged out of the square and up a grassy bank overlooking the town, Jack flopped onto grass and had propped himself up on his elbows so he could watch the festival. Rapunzel sat more carefully next to him and stared at Jack in a new light, the warm glow of the bonfire light up his cheeks and forehead, highlighting his cheekbones and lips. She blushed and stared at the fire, regretting every thought and instead thought about how sad Elsa would be if she saw them.
"Why are you so quiet?" Jack asked still looked towards the light with a pleasant look on his face. "Why do you always argue with Merry? I don't really know." She retorted. Jack laughed and sat up suddenly with a bright smile and brought out a phone, Rapunzel, instantly curious leaned to get a peak and saw he was loading music. "What are you doing?" She questioned and got a grin back as a response, 'Show me what I'm looking for' started playing and Jack had stood up. Still grinned he held out a hand, more polite than anything else, Rapunzel took it in wonder and gasped as Jack started slow dancing. "Jack, you know it's impossible to slow dance to this tune?" Jack laughed and held her by the waist, his eyes seemed to dance, like the bonfire had spread and set them alight to the tune. Rapunzel wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled back at him not really wanting the song to stop. Jack leant in and placed his forehead on hers so their noses rubbed against each other. Rapunzel only smiled up at him. "You know I only dated Elsa because I wanted to get your attention." He seemed to whisper, Rapunzel started and leant back pausing mid-move.
"What kind of idea was that? You probably broke her poor heart." Rapunzel said shocked at his bemused expression. "Oh no, Elsa knew I liked you, it was her idea you see, worked with her sister." Jack laughed and pulled her into a turn, she stopped him to his surprise, clearly this wasn't what he had planned. "So you think that would just work? Oh my crap Jack that was an awful idea!" Jack tried a wink only annoying Rapunzel further. "It worked though? Didn't it?" Rapunzel pushed him away from her, suddenly feeling sick at the idea she was ever interested in him. "Rapunzel?" Jack now looked worried rather than his usual cheerful self. "You thought that if you dated some other girl you would make me jealous enough to date you as soon as you 'broke up' Jack that's just stupid!" Rapunzel felt tears prick her eyes. "Rapunzel please." Jack took a step forwards and she took more back. "Stay away from me!" She suddenly felt bad for saying that, he looked hurt, well more like he had been stabbed in the heart. " Look, Jack I have liked you for 5 fucking years. Why couldn't you just ask me? Why do you always have to make things so messed up?" She was shouting through tears, which annoyed her and made her cry more. "Oh I don't know? Maybe it was because you were always surrounded in friends, I couldn't just walk up to you and ask you out." He yelled back however the look of hurt remained on his face. "You could Jack, I wanted you to for so god dam long, but now your too late, I am done chasing you." She yelled in bitter tears, Rapunzel turned as the fireworks started, transforming Jack into a shadow against the colourful light, she ran back down the hill and didn't try to stop running.
I don't really know if it was short or what but I hoped you liked it!
