I have doubled-checked and I think my grammar is alright, but of course if you have your own opinions then please fill free to tell me...enjoy!
All hiccup could hear was a beeping sound, repeating over and over.
It was annoying to say the least but then his ears began picking up more vibrations.
What are these noises?
Hiccup wanted to open his eyelids but discovered he couldn't. His memories were fuzzy and why his body would not respond he didn't understand.
Why can't I move?
Why I am I like this?
What happened to me?
Then he heard it, a voice swirling around his body repeating only one name.
"Hiccup"
Whose voice is that?
And where have I heard it before?
"Hiccup wake up, please don't leave me"
I know that voice, it's Hicca!
But why is she crying?
Hiccup felt an urge in his body feeling the movement. His body was reacting!
My sister is she alright?
Has someone hurt her?
"I know you can hear me Hiccup please brother"
Come on body listen to her and wake up!
The bright emerald eyes of Hiccup had startled Hicca who clutched her chest.
His breathing panting when an electrical shock passed through his body.
"Doctor, Hiccup has come around!"
With his breathing under control, he saw a black-haired doctor possibly around his thirty's coming towards him.
"Hello, how are you feeling?" Hiccup wince when the doctor shined a light in his sunken eyes.
"My body is sore and it's hard to keep my eyes open" He could feel the scratching against his throat from being unused.
"Ah I'm afraid you will feel like this for a while but we will give you medication to help with the pain". The doctor wrote on his clip board taking notes.
"As for now I advised you to get some more sleep. I'll be back to check on you both later".
Hiccup saw he was wearing a light blue gown with an IV in his right forearm and felt the uncomfortable tube that went up his nose, an oxygen tube. A blue cast that covered his whole left arm only seeing the tip of his fingers and his bottom half covered by a blanket.
"Are you sure you are ok?" she said genuinely.
Hiccup could see his sister wearing a pink gown instead of blue and her casts being red. Her eyes were sunken as well.
Hiccup nodded "I'm fine, just worry about yourself.
She snorted at the remark. "Hiccup you are more injured than I am. So of course I'm going to worry"
He laughing softly at his stubborn sister, they were both alike in many ways.
Then he heard the door opening, a man walked in.
"Hicca I bought some food maybe we-"He paused.
The man walking in was Stoick who saw his son leaning against the pillow, his eyes stunned yet amazed that their father was here.
He could only feel dishearten, because his daughter had the same expression.
"Hiccup" his speeches were usually so bold and boisterous but today it was low and dispirited.
Hiccup watched his father come round the other side of the bed so he could also see Hicca.
"Son"
A brush of a hand swept Hiccup's brown soft hair away from his face then landing on the boy's cheek.
"You had me worried there for a second, but I believed that you would open your eyes eventually".
The sincerity, heartfelt feeling his father was giving him left Hiccup dumbstruck. His mouth trying to speak but no words could express the emotions in his heart.
He had always wanted the love and affection from his father. Although he wished a car accident wasn't something he had in mind, but either way his father was here.
It was then his father mention something strange.
"I'm glad the surgery went well".
Surgery, what surgery?
Stoick saw Hiccup raise his eyebrow in confusion. And then saw his daughter's frantic face.
"Oh" all he could say.
"Surgery, what do you mean?". Hiccup could feel something was missing, it never noticed before but now he felt like a part of him was lost. The sensation in his left leg was gone!
Quickly he pulled back the covers and just choked when seeing half of his leg had vanished leaving an empty space.
"My-my" Hiccup's mind turned negative at the things he couldn't do anymore.
How can I walk around with only one leg?
I can even walk again!
Will I be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life!
Stoick pulled the quilt back over the stump when he saw Hiccup panic-stricken. Gently he grabbed Hiccup's face rubbing his thumb across smoothly.
"Hiccup, son you have to calm down"
"But my leg it's -"
"I know son but I need you to trust me. We will get through this!".
Hiccup let his body loosen, the anxiety leaving his body. He fell back against the pillow his eyes struggling to stay open.
The warm lips on the forehead sent the boy into a peaceful sleep.
Stoick smiled looking a second longer at his still son before getting up going to Hicca.
"Dad, did you mean that?"
Stoick raised an eyebrow the bag of food he bought now on the side table.
Hicca's eyes held trust and promise "about us getting through this?"
Taking her hand and kissing her forehead was the answer.
The family was progressing slowly taking one step at a time.
