Love Is...
This story's quote was brought to you by DayLightDove. Thanks Dove!
When the world and everyone in it turns you away and shuns you for who you are, I'll be here with my arms open for you.
Kura smiled as she read out the next quote, "When the world and everyone in it turns you away and shuns you for who you are, I'll be here with my arms open for you..."
"...and they NEVER listen to me! Not even now, and we're DEAD!" Hiccup ranted to the newest Seasonal Spirit. A young colonial boy by the name of Jack Frost. He stood up and began to, and this has become a habit, to mimick some of his fellow Autumn Spirits, namely his friends and family. "'Son. You were the pride of Berk! You are the reason we all should have been in Valhalla. But no. Your talent is TOO worthy of the Gods, so now we are stuck here!'"
Jack let out a laugh. He had only been alive for a few days. Well...correction, he'd only been a SPIRIT for a few days.
When he woke up, he was afraid. But then, the moon shone down on him, and his fear left him. But it quickly returned, when he went to that little town, and had people walk right through him.
For days, he just wandered around. Aimlessly. Searching for anyone who could see him. Hear him. HOLD him.
Hiccup smiled at the young sprite's laughter.
He for one, had gone through centuries with a broken heart, Astrid telling him long ago, that it just wasn't meant to be. She wanted a normal life, and it was stripped from her, and she blacked it all on him.
"So," Hiccup said in his normal voice, "what's your story?"
Jack looked up at him, "M-my what?"
"Story."
"I...I don't have one. I just...woke up on my lake to the moonlight, went to this town nearby, and...everyone walked through me..."
"I'm sorry," Hiccup said softly, "you didn't know."
Jack looked at him and slid closer. "Know what?"
Hiccup looked into his large, icy, orbs. He saw a child like innocence in them.
"You..." he hesitated, "you need to have believers, in order to be seen. Usually, it's always gonna be children...but they...they forget when they grow up...and...it hurts sometimes, but then, someone else starts to believe..."
Jack nodded and slid closer to Hiccup.
Hiccup smiled as the young spirit stood up, "I'm gonna search for my believers."
Jack waved and jumped into the air.
Hiccup sighed, 'I believe in you.'
Hiccup walked around, smiling at the celebration.
300 years.
It had been 300 years since he met him.
The young Winter Prince.
Jack Frost.
The celebration?
Jack had become a Guardian after 300 years, of feeling alone and unwanted.
It was something Hiccup himself wanted.
"Hey Hiccup," Jack smiled, a young boy walking over with him."Jamie, this is Hiccup...the guy I told you about."
Jamie, as the boy was called, smiled and held a hand in front of Hiccup.
"Y-you believe in me?" Hiccup asked.
Jamie rolled his eyes, "I'll believe anything right about now."
Hiccup smiled and shook hands with the ten year old.
He turned back to Jack, "Congratulations Jack."
Jack smiled and Jamie backed away, looking at the two elder boys with a knowing look.
Jack waved to him.
"I can't believe this..." Jack laughed.
"Me either," Hiccup said.
"Hiccup?"
"Hm?"
"I know something's wrong."
Hiccup sighed. He looked at Jack. "I was...I tried to win Astrid over again. Nothing. I'm such a loser for holding onto any hope that she still loved me."
Jack opened up his arms.
Hiccup stared at him oddly.
"My arms will always be open for you, Hiccup." Jack smiled, a violet blush filling his cheeks.
Hiccup smiled softly and embraced him, "And I'll always be there, when you need someone to believe in you."
Jack's eyes widened, and he looked at Hiccup before quickly pecking him on the lips.
But as quick as it was, Hiccup didn't want it to be over.
So, he pulled Jack in for another, ignoring the whoops of their fellow Seasonal Spirits.
Kura smiled, "Anyone want to try the quote?"
Tooth lifted her hand.
"Toothiana?"
"Well..." Tooth smiled, "I think, it's trying to say...that there'll always be someone out there, who will hold us in our time of need. They will listen to us. To them...it won't matter who we are, because, with them, we can be ourselves. They won't judge us. They won't push us away. They'll always be there."
Sakura nodded. "I'm starving, anyone up for lunch?"
The others smiled and got up.
Kura ran off, book in hand, and led them into a courtyard. A large, water like, dome covered it.
"Sit. Yami, mind getting us some food while I look for the nex-"
"Can I look for one?" Emma asked.
Kura shrugged and handed it over. "The ones we read are marked with a red heart."
Emma nodded and began her search. As she did, Sakura brought over some food and drinks.
"FOUND ONE!"
She handed the book to Kura, who nodded and slipped a bookmark in it.
Right now, it was lunch time.
