Hiccup woke up at 12pm, quite later than his usual awakenings. Due to what happened yesterday, Hiccup was brought home with a comforting Gobber who swore to give a good beating to Toothless, to which Hiccup begs him not to. Being the loving uncle he is, Gobber respects Hiccup's wishes, along with a few grumbles while sharpening the blade that's attached to his handless arm...
His father must have left for work already and, having Gobber know Hiccup needs some alone time, he left to his blacksmith shop to finish the request.
For a moment, Hiccup just wants to hug his Toothy and cry himself to sleep…
…Until that blasted communication device starts ringing.
Hiccup didn't bother to listen to the ringtone to know who it is. Instead, he grabs his phone, a Samsung Note 2 that he got for his birthday from Gobber, off the bed counter, swipe through the screen on 'call', not looking at the ID.
"Hello?"
"Ah, so your ringtone for me is 'Criminal' by Britney Spears, huh?" Hiccup's eyes suddenly open at the size of a baseball.
"TOOTHLESS?! AH!" He fell off the bed and landed on the ground, groaning in pain when his back hit the floor.
"Hicca? Hicca, are you okay?! What happened?!" Hearing Toothless's panicked voice; Hiccup groans and puts the phone next to his ear.
"I'm fine, Toothless…Just a bit shocked." If Hiccup could look at Toothless right now, he can see a doubting look from him.
"Are you sure?" Hiccup chuckles softly and sits up.
"I'm fine, Tooth. Really! So what's with the sudden call?" Hiccup got up and heads off to his drawer, taking out the clothes he's going to wear.
"I want to remind you we have a date today. Remember?"
Hiccup froze with his hands picking up his shirt in midair and the phone between his shoulder and head.
"Great…another day as Hicca."
"Hello? Hicca, you there?" Hiccup blinks and places his shirt on the bed, picking up his phone from his shoulder.
"Yeah! Sorry…I was just picking my clothes for today."
A deep silence comes from the other line. Hiccup raises a brow at the silence. Toothless is never this quiet around Hicca…
"Are you wearing any black undergarments?"
Hiccup's cheeks flare bright red and he holds the phone in both hands, facing at the screen. "WHY IN THE WORLD ARE YOU ASKING SUCH A PERVERT QUESTION?!" Hiccup stares at the phone in embarrassment, hearing chuckles from the other line.
"Sorry! Sorry! I can't help but imagine you changing into something black. It kinda tur-"
"Please do not finish that sentence." Hiccup blushes even more, covering his eyes with his hand.
"Haha! Alright, alright. Remember, 2pm, Art Museum." Hiccup looks at the outfit he left on the bed. A brown ponytail wig, a black shirt and a white skirt that can reach till his knees.
"Yeah. I got it."
"Hicca?"
"Hm?"
"…I love you." Hiccup stops in his track and before he can say anything, the line went dead. Hiccup stares at himself in the mirror…He can see it now.
His male half broken inside and showing the deep hurt and sadness he received from yesterday…
While the other half, his female counterpart half, is smiling with glee…
"…No, Toothless…You only love Hicca…" Hiccup sighs and places his phone on the drawer, stepping into the bathroom for a quick cold shower to wash away the ache inside him…
~With Toothless~
As Toothless stares at the phone, a black Samsung Note 3, he's holding with his right hand stroking a brown rabbit, an 18 year old-looking boy walks into the living room. His glowing gold eyes looks at his brother, rubbing a towel on his wet, red hair as a few drop of water drips onto the boy's naked chest.
"Hey, Toothless, you seen my phone? I can't find it anywhere…" Noticing his brother's thoughtful expression, Hookfang raises a brow. "Oi, little Tooth, you hear me?" Toothless growls at the nickname and glares at his brother.
"What now, Hookfang?" Hookfang stares at the phone, then at his brother and then back at the phone.
"What happened? Did a fan girl say something about finding out your dirty secret?" Toothless blushingly growls at his brother again, putting his phone into the pocket of his jeans.
"It's nothing like that. And you said you would never bring it up again!" The little rabbit raises its ears, noticing the little banter between the brothers.
"Which one? The stalking fan girls or your secret?" Hookfang grins mischievously, causing Toothless to grow more irritated.
"Cut it out!" But before Toothless can remove his rabbit from his lap to attack Hookfang, a busty 18 year old with flowing blue long hair and strange bright yellow eyes come into the room.
"Guys, enough! I can barely hear myself think! Honestly, this is why I prefer girls…" Hookfang stares at her with slight annoyance.
"Seriously, Stormfly, why don't you find guys interesting?" Stormfly glares at her younger brother.
"Why don't you find girls interesting?" Hookfang lets out a huff of annoyance. It was no secret that Hookfang, the fiery hot high school student, is gay and Stormfly, the hot, sexy college student, is a lesbian.
"Touché…" Stormfly sighs and runs her perfectly manicured fingers through her hair. "Anyways, what's going on here?" Hookfang chuckles and points his point to Toothless.
"Lover boy here was being a lovesick puppy." Stormfly's eyes widen.
"Again!? That's the third time this week! Who is it, Toothless? What's her name? What's her age?"
"And is she a he?" Stormfly glares at Hookfang, who just smirks cockily. Toothless sighs and picks up his little rabbit, getting up before walking towards to his room while listening to Stormfly and Hookfang arguing what gender his date would be.
"Do you think they'll ever stop?" He only got a stare and a twitch on the nose. They look at each other in quite silence before Toothless laughs lightly. "What am I saying? This is Stormfly and Hookfang we're talking about!" He sighs and shakes his head softly, the rabbit in his arm nuzzling his chest. Toothless smiles and scratches the back of the rabbit's ear.
"I bet it's a girl!"
"It's a guy! I know he would go to MY side!"
"You moronic idiot!"
"You cow-chested hag!"
"Man stalker!"
"Girl molester!"
Toothless chuckles at the playful batter between his older siblings and pats the brown fur. A pair of beautiful emerald-colored eyes looks at him, reminding Toothless's lover's eyes…
"You sure are the cutest rabbit in the world, aren't you? You are! Yes you are!" He coos as he tickles the little bunny, causing it to squirm in his arms.
"I know!" Toothless froze at the exclaiming shout from his sister…
And from the tone of it, it's not good.
"Let's invite his little date here! Tonight!" Toothless groans and facepalms while cradling the rabbit in his other arm.
"Oh shit…"
~With Hiccup~
He is a hustler, he's no good at all
He is a loser, he's a bum
(Bum, bum, bum)
He lies, he bluffs he's unreliable
He is a sucker with a gun
(Gun, gun, gun)
I know you told me I should stay away
I know you said he's just a dog astray
He is a bad boy with a tainted heart
And even I know this ain't smart
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy.
"Hello?" Hiccup asks with a blush across his cheeks. After he finished his shower, he was in time for the last verse of the song and, having Toothless hearing it, he can feel his body heating up in minutes! He should really change his ringtone next time…
"Um…Hicca…I got something to tell you…" Hiccup suddenly feels worry in his chest. A voice full of nervousness and uncertainty.
Toothless doesn't do that unless there's something important.
"What? What is it? What happened?" Hiccup suddenly asks, clutching on the phone. "Toothless, are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
"Um…it's not that…change of plans…" Hiccup raises a brow at the statement. Does that mean…?
"Are you…cancelling the date?" Hiccup asks quietly and quite sadly. Toothless starts to panic.
"N-No! Well, not exactly but it's not my idea! M-My family…they…" Toothless bits his lower lip, darting a look at his grinning siblings who are sitting on a couch in front of him.
"Your family?" Hiccup suddenly asks, surprised. He never heard Toothless talking about his family…
"Yeah…well, more like my older siblings…my parents are on an oversea trip…but…well…do you think you can…"
"Yeah?" Hiccup asks quietly, his brows furrow. Toothless gulps quietly and says as softly as he could.
"Do you think you can come to my place and meet them?"
…
…
…
…Huh?
"W-What?" Hiccup suddenly becomes confuse. Toothless's family? Something he never thought of meeting?
Oh Thor…
"Hicca, you there? Oh shit. You guys, I told you she-"
"T-Toothless, I would love to meet them…" Hiccup suddenly blushes at how he sounds. Toothless stares at his phone before answering.
"You would?"
"You don't want me to?"
"No no no! Not like that! I-I mean…my siblings are quite…unique. If you really don't want to, I get it. You don't have to lie, you know." Hiccup frowns a bit at the response and puts a hand on his hip, almost like nagging Toothless in person.
"Why would I lie? I wouldn't mind meeting your siblings. After all, I'm sure they're part of the reason why you're you, right? Besides…" Hiccup suddenly blushes softly and mutters. "I love the person you are…no matter what…besides…" Hiccup hesitated for a moment. The next part is gonna be something that could be near impossible…"One day…we might get married so…if it's your family I'm going to meet, then I'm counting them as my family too, okay?"
…
…
…
"Um…Hello?" Hiccup suddenly raises a brow at the silence. "Toothless? Hello?"
THUD!
"H-Hey, what happened?!" Hiccup suddenly stares at the phone, wondering what that sound was.
"HAHAHAHA! TOOTHLESS FAINTED! HAHAHA!" A male voice came into the phone before a feminine one takes places.
"Be quiet, Hookfang!" There were some shuffling sounds before the voice came back. "Hello? You must be Hicca, Toothless's girlfriend, am I right?" Somehow, that one word is being said quite loudly and that caused something grumbling in the background.
"Um…yeah, and you must be-"
"Ekkk! A girl! Toothless, you really got a good catch! Oh wait, he's still passed out…Well, the dinner starts at 7pm so don't be late! Ciao!"
And then the line went dead. Hiccup suddenly feels his whole face heating up and he lays back down on the bed on his back, groaning in embarrassment.
"This is going to be a long day…"
If only Hiccup knew how long of a day he's gonna have.
With the still large scar Hiccup got from yesterday's encounter in his heart, he still continues his act! But when Hiccup is going to meet the family, what is he going to do then?
