Hey everyone! ^_^ As promised, here is the second chapter! This one I had to rewrite a few times, and do a LOT of editing!
Chapter 2
We managed to burst into the classroom just before the tardy bell rang.
"Mr. Haddock, and Mr.….Oh, you're the new student aren't you? Well, stay up here so you can introduce yourself to the class. Hiccup, don't be late again, or I will have to send you to detention. Again." Mrs. Valhalla, the health teacher, said.
I shrugged. Toothless smiled at me before going and standing in front of her desk. I grinned back, and started walking back to my seat, which was in the very back, with two empty seats by it. People tried to sit as far away from me as they could…as usual. As I walked by Shawn and Addyson, Shawn's foot shot out into the aisle, and I tripped, twisting my ankle somehow on the way down, and face planting onto the floor. Snickers filled the room, and naturally, Mrs. Valhalla pretended as though nothing had even happened. Toothless glared at Shawn before sending a concerned look my way. I waved at him to say I was fine, I pulled myself to my feet, and limped to my seat.
"So, young man, why don't you tell us about yourself?" Mrs. Valhalla asked.
Toothless rolled his eyes and sighed. "My name is Talos Miyako. Nice to meet you." With that he trudged to the seat next to me, ignoring Ms. Valhalla's protests that he wasn't finished. When he sat next to me, a few of the kids who had not been there this morning and hadn't heard about it yet, gasped. I held in a laugh as Mrs. Valhalla began the lesson. I winced when I saw what she had written up on the board. I leaned over and whispered to Toothless.
"You showed up at the worst time in health class…the dreaded… Sex Ed!"
He shuddered. "Aww man… I already went through this at my last school!" He whined.
I snickered at the pained look on his face as Mrs. Valhalla continued droning on; taking no heed of the fact that NO ONE was listening to her.
An eraser suddenly pegged me in the back of the head. I heard some snickers and giggles; no doubt it was the twins this time. I ignored it, even as the next few came my way. Where in the name of Freya did they get all these erasers?
Toothless didn't notice until a few started being aimed at him. He too ignored the erasers, but I noticed how his eye would twitch every time one hit him. Uh oh… Just before the next one hit him; he suddenly whirled around, grabbed it, and pegged it back at Trevor, hitting him square in the eye, while releasing a vicious sounding growl.
"OH I am hurt! I am very much hurt!" Trevor cried.
"Quiet down back there!" Mrs. Valhalla snarled.
We all nodded and waited for her to turn back around. Once the lesson had continued, Trevor leaned forward and hissed. "I didn't appreciate being hit in the eye you stupid little twerp."
"Oh crap…" I thought to myself.
Toothless turned and looked Trevor in the eye. "Yeah, and I don't appreciate being hit with erasers."
Trevor sneered. "Oh really? Well, I guess you won't like being hit by FIST either then, now will you?"
Shawn and Regan sniggered quietly.
Toothless scoffed. "Ha, like a shrimp like you could take me down!"
I mentally facepalmed. 'That dumbass, is he trying to get killed?'
Shawn and Trevor shared a look. Shawn grinned. "After school, the alley behind the school. Don't chicken out, or tomorrow… we'll find you? Got it?"
Toothless sneered, and he narrowed his bright green eyes at them. "Got it."
At that, the bell rang, and I quickly pulled Toothless out of the classroom.
"What is the matter with you?" I shrieked, pulling at my hair. "You're going to get KILLED!"
He grinned. "I doubt it. Idiots like that are all about strength. As long as you're faster, you're good to go!"
I shook my head at him. "Whatever. Look, I'll try to help, since their gonna gang up on you… I'm not the…best fighter, but I'll try, okay?"
He gave me a doubtful glance. "Hiccup, Your only gonna get hu-"
I cut him off. "I'm gonna help you, and you can't change my mind, alright?"
Toothless nodded.
I sighed, not looking forward to after school. "Well anyway, here's our 3rd period, Woodshop. The teachers name is Mr. Belchson, but we just call him Gobber. Oh, and, watch out, he's a hugger…"
We stepped into the workshop, and I was instantly picked up into the air, and crushed my 300 pounds or so of Gobber.
"Hiccup! Haven't seen you in a while!" He laughed.
"It's o-only been tw-two days!" I gasped "G-Gobber. Need. Air!"
"Oh, right, sorry 'bout that!" He chortled, and then noticed Toothless standing by me.
"Ah, you must be our new student! Well, you name doesn't matter right now, anyway, what're you doin hangin out with Hiccup? How much did he pay you?"
Toothless laughed, and I slapped my forehead.
"Gobber! Go…teach something!" I yelped.
He grinned and ruffled my hair before walking off.
As the bell rang, I trudged over to my seat, trying to smooth my hair back down, with Toothless following closely behind.
We plopped down, and watched for an HOUR AND A HALF as Gobber demonstrated hot NOT to use power tools. After that, we ate lunch under the bleachers, where only the few nerds and such ate. 5th period was English with Mr. Terrore. We spent the whole period passing notes, joking about Mr. Terrore's eyes. I mean, come on, the poor guys eyes bug out so much, if you where to whack him the back of the head, I wouldn't be surprised if they popped out of his head!
7th period was our free period, so we hid in the back of the library, Toothless sleeping in the corner, while I tried to make 'battle strategies'. I honestly loved my A Days, cause I had all of my easy classes. B days I had Algebra, P.E., English, and Biology.
The bell rang, and I woke Toothless up. It was time for the dreaded fight.
We walked into the entrance to the alley and I realized two things…one; there was 3 of them…and 2 of us. Second, I realized… I was SO screwed.
A fourth person suddenly appeared behind us, and picked me up by the hood of my jacket.
"HEY!" I protested, squirming around, as Toothless stood his ground, and glared at the idiot holding me.
"Hey Shawn, he brought Worthless with him!"
I froze. 'Oh shit…I recognized that voice… He was sent to Juvie on a daily basis, and was best friend with Shawn and the Twins. His name was Greg, but people started calling him Red Death after he was rumored to have killed someone.'
Shawn, Trevor, and Regan started laughing. Toothless saw his chance, and quickly darted forward, and sent a right hook to Trevor's' cheek. He hissed in pain, and Regan and Trevor quickly attempted to hit him. Shawn sauntered over to Greg and me, an evil smirk on his face.
"Hey Greg, what should we do with shrimpy here?"
I responded by spitting on Shawn's forehead. He growled in anger, and told Greg to drop me. He threw me to the ground, and Shawn quickly hauled me up. I heard the twins cursing as Toothless grabbed Trevor and threw him into his sister. Shawn brought my attention back to him when he punched me in the stomach. The air whooshed out of me, as Shawn threw me back to the ground. I began to get up, but Greg kicked me in the side of my head. I cried out in pain.
Toothless looked to me, worry evident in his eyes. "Hiccup!" He started to run over to me, but Regan, still on the ground, grabbed his ankle, sending him crashing to the ground. I saw the blood begin to stream from his chin. Shawn suddenly Stomped on my hand.
"Look at me! WE are the ones you should be worried about."
He put more pressure onto my hand while Greg kicked me in the head. I cried out once more, and curled up into a ball. I heard Trevor yelp as Toothless kicked him the wall, and heard Regan hit the ground a few seconds later. She didn't move again, so she must've been knocked out. I feebly attempted to get to my feet and punch Greg, only for him to grab my fist, and then throw me into the wall. Trevor hit the ground on the other side of the alley just as I slammed into the hard brick. I didn't see Toothless though. Greg grabbed me by the neck and raised me up the wall and began squeezing my neck. I started coughing and clawing at his hands. He was about to punch me in the face, when Shawn hit the wall next to us and hit the ground. Greg, panicking because he didn't know where Toothless went, dropped me and ran off. Slumped against the wall, I began breathing deeply, trying to get enough air into my lungs. I saw Toothless run towards me from the corner of my eye.
He kneeled down by me. "Come on, let's get you patched up."
He picked me up, and started walking to his house. I looked up at him, and thought 'His hair…looks so soft…and his eyes are beautiful…' My gaze drifted to his lips. 'I wonder what they feel like...' I shook the thoughts out of my head, and realized I had spaced out longer than I thought. He was walking up the walkway of his house. He gently put me down on my feet, unlocked the door, and began helping me up the stairs to his room. As I limped through the doorway, I noticed how darkly colored his room was, and all the metal and rock posters on the walls. He sat me down on his bed and opened up a first aid kit he had pulled out from a drawer by his bed.
He smiled at me. "You fool, you shouldn't have come with me today."
I glared at him. "What is that supposed to mean? I distracted Shawn and Greg so you could take on the twins first!" 'And I didn't want YOU to get hurt…' I thought.
He brushed his thumb over my cheek, making me shiver.
"But you got hurt in the process." He whispered, slowly leaning forward.
"It's okay, I'm used to being beat up" I muttered, my eyes lowering to rest on his lips.
"Heh…" He chuckled.
'Alright, enough messing around' I thought, and with that, I grabbed his collar, and firmly pressed my lips to his. I felt him smile against my lips, and one hand came around to rest on my back, pressing me closer, the other coming up to tangle in my hair.
'I don't care that he's a boy…I-I think I love him…' I thought as my eyes drifted closed, and looped my arms around his neck. We broke for air, and he smirked at me, making me blush. He laughed at my blush before pulling me in for another kiss.
X) I LOVED writing that kiss scene! Haha, my dad read it over my shoulder and I had no idea! XD He got all weirded out! Anyway, don't worry, this story isn't over yet!
