Now onto the story
Chapter 12 - what the hell happen last nigh
The day in Berk started like any other typical day, the birds were singing and the soft sound of the waves touching the sand was the perfect melody to go with them.
The clouds were almost inexistent and the sky was as blue as well the sky ...
But in the middle of this so well prepared melody a group of friends were about to have a rough wake up call...
"WERE THE FUCK ARE WE?!" came the loud voice of Elf
His loud voice combined with the powerful hangover he and the rest of the gang was now suffering was not a good mix.
" Fuck do you have to be so loud !" Whispered angry Shadow
" Sorry " whispered back Elf " But were the hell are we ?"
" Where do you think genius wears at the beach" answer Mira while slapping her boyfriend in the head
" Hey I know that ! I meant in what beach exactly!"
" Oh then in that case... Oi does anyone know where the fuck we are ?" Asked Mira
There we a lot of groans and ' No' as her answer
" Well Hiccup is the know it all so somebody wake him up please" said Mira
Lara rubbed her eyes before saying " I Think its best if we don't do that "
" Why not ?" Asked her boyfriend Shadow
" Cause one he got pretty drunk last night and we all know how he gets in the morning after..." To that everyone shivered, an hangover Hiccup was not a happy sight " Plus As is currently using him as her personal pillow"
When Lara finished her sentence all the group looked at Hiccup. Just like Lara had said, Astrid was using the guy as her pillow, resting her head on his shoulder and hugging his torso. Their legs were also next to each other and Hiccup had his arms around Astrid waist.
Not a second after seeing the view, all the girls pulled their phones out. The sound of pictures being taken was what fill the atmosphere for at least ten minutes.
" That's should do" said Valerie
" Yup memories and blackmail pictures, my favorite kind of photos" smirked Rina
The guys all shook theirs heads at the clear thought that was running through their girlfriends minds. Finally Tank decided to voice their options " You guys are going to play match maker aren't you?"
" DAMN RIGHT WE ARE" yelled the girls forgetting who was still asleep
The noise of course woke up Hiccup, by a miracle Astrid remained asleep. Hearing his friends talk about playing match maker with him and Astrid, made Hiccup think.
Yeah he had feelings for Astrid that much was obvious, but he didn't feel like he could really make a move. Mostly cause he still thought he wasn't enough but also cause he remember the promise he made three years ago.
FLASHBACK
Snotlout and the twins had just once again beat Hiccup to the ground. But what made this time different from the others was the why it had happen.
You see their chemistry teacher had paired up Hiccup and Astrid together, but for some reason Astrid was one class that day and so the teacher had asked Hiccup to give the information to the girl after school.
The younger Hiccup couldn't believe is luck, a sense of hope and longing started to grow on his heart as he thought of all the time he and Astrid would have together. Maybe just maybe life wasn't so bad after all.
Well... All of those happy thoughts were brought to a stop the moment he got out of the classroom.
Snotlout had grabbed him a punched him all the while threatening him to beat him up much worse if he even dared to look at Astrid.
" A skinny dumb and stupid Fucker like you doesn't deserve to even look at Astrid !" Snotlout had scream at him while delivering yet another kick and punch
After all was done, Hiccup stood alone behind the school crying and silently asking why did he deserve all of what happened in his life. After pondering in his grief, young Hiccup had reach a conclusion. 'What I want its to far from my hands. I will always be a disgrace and that's something no girl should have by her side' he thought
That day Hiccup had promise himself to stop wanting what was impossible for him to have... And that was finding someone who loved him for who he was and who let him love her as much as he could"
That day Hiccup had said goodbye to love
END OF FLASHBACK
With that memory in mind Hiccup said to his friends " You will stop with those stupid ideas of getting me and Astrid together" he was being careful to not talk to loud
" They are not stupid you guys are perfect for each other" Said Mira arguing
Getting of Astrid's hold and releasing his own on the girl all the while somehow keeping her from waking up, Hiccup stood tall and with a serious poker face. " I don't care what you think. This is my life and I'm the one who commands it"
" Hiccup we know you don't like to get attached..." Started to say Elf
" But Nothing! I don't mess with your lifes the least you can do is the same"
" We just want to make you happy" said Rina
" Then let things stay how they are ! I don't need your help! I may be the youngest but I'm still an adult stop treating me like a child!" The last part Hiccup turned to Mira and the girl could only look down hurt by his words
Getting angry at the situation but also at the way his words were leaving his mouth Hiccup said " We are at the beach next to the university, it only takes twenty minutes by car to get there, I can see all of our bikes and cars from here" looking at Astrid and then at Shadow " Please take her to her dorm when she wakes up"
" Why can't you do it" quietly asked Shadow
" I'm going for a walk"
" A walk in the sand ?" Lara asked spreading knowing the answer
" Not really " Not giving more information Hiccup just started to walk towards his bike.
The others knew that it was best to just let him go, something had cleary upset Hiccup his friends just didn't knew what exactly.
After awhile Astrid woke up and feeling the absence of Hiccup asked where was the boy.
It was Mira who answer her " He just went to clear his head"
" But why?"
"I don't really know Astrid" said Mira letting out a sigh
Realizing things were turning to a sad place Astrid tried to change the topic " Hmm can you guys tell me how did we end up on the beach"
The others knew what she was doing but let it happen mostly because they too weren't feeling up to talk about Hiccup.
" Well lad that's the beauty of Horn's cooking, you never really know if its good or not cause it come with parcial amnesia on the side" Tried to Joke Elf
That made all of them let out a chuckle. Horns just let out a angry " uph!" Before starting to mumble about " Ungrateful bastards and lads"
Astrid was graceful for the fact that her plan worked but at the same time couldn't help but ask "So you guys never remember what happens?"
This time it was scorpion who decided to answer, with a wicked smirk he said "Well you see usually we have some photos or even videos if we are lucky, that our past dunk of their asses selves made. So if I where you I started to pray"
"How so ?" asked astrid lifting an eyebrow
"Well if tradition happened, and I can assure you it did, this group and now you too made some stupid yet epic stuff last night. So if I'm not wrong someone put that shit online. I just hope your friends are not very social active"
"ah… oh…" were the only sounds that left Astrid mid for a while, then… " SHIT I'm screwed !"
Her outburst was not very well received among the rest of the gang.
Rina with a suspicious look asked " Are you embarrassed of us or something?"
Realizing what her freak out could meant for the gang Astrid was quick to answer " No! Of course not. It's just that I promise Hiccup I wouldn't try to make him see or talk to my friends… But if someone recognizes Hiccup on the photos, they will want to meet him"
After a while Rina said " Okay I can understand that... But why does Hiccup not want to meet them?"
" Well I don't think we..." Before Astrid could say that they shouldn't talk about that without Hiccup Tank said
" We should all go to the tattoo shop to talk, its past midday and even though we said we were closed in the morning we didn't say nothing about the afternoon"
" Yeah you are right plus we can talk better there" said Elf
In almost a blink of an eye Astrid saw herself inside the tattoo shop with a MacDonald's chicken burger menu in her hand.
The rest of the gang minus Hiccup were all seated in the various chairs all with MacDonald's food in their hands.
After like ten minutes Mira broke the awkward silence. " So Astrid can you tell us why doesn't Hiccup want to meet your Friends?"
" Well you see I don't think I should say something with Hiccup here"
" I can understand your thinking but you need to remember that we know Hiccup better than you, we know his problems and his past so we have the right to know this" Said Mira
" If it makes you feel better you haven't posted nothing on your social network accounts" German said
" How do you know that?" Asked Astrid
" I have my ways" said German with a wicked smirk
" I don't think I want to know" mumble Astrid
" You are right about that... Now tell us" Said a now irritated Mira
Deciding they had a point and that they just wanted what was best for Hiccup, Astrid said " Well my Friends, Snotlout, Ruffnut, Tuffnut and Fishlegs are people who have done some wrong to Hiccup in the past"
Shadow started to think before snapping his fingers " I know Snotlout! He is Hiccup's cousin isn't he?"
" Yeah he is, but he and Hiccup never get along" said Astrid remembering all the times she watched Snotlout beat Hiccup.
"That's an understatement... He was one of Hiccup's bullies wasn't he" said shadow once again thinking
" Yeah he was, the twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut were also in the mix, mostly because they followed Snot everywhere"
" Well I can understand those three than, but what about Fishlegs?" Asked Mira
" Fish was actually Hiccup's friend once, but then he started to hang out with the twins and after a while we the rest of us... I guess in the middle he stopped hanging out with Hiccup" said Astrid Feeling almost like scum
" I see so he abandoned Hiccup" said Mira
" In a way yes" said Astrid
" He doesn't want for you to bet he bridge, he wants them to say sorry and to make amends by their own hands" Said Elf giving a squeeze on Mira's shoulder
" Yeah... And I can now understand the why" Said Astrid
" As just know that we feel like you really like Hiccup, but if you try to hurt my brother I will make your life a living Hell" threaten Mira with a serious face
Gulping Astrid said " I got it. And I wouldn't even dream of it, I have made a lot of mistakes regarding my friendship with Henry, but I'm trying to make up for it"
" That's all I could ask" Said Mira
Before anyone could say more a voice was heard " Well Now that you are all finish with the interrogation. I need to get Astrid Home"
" How long were you standing there Hiccup ?" Asked Shadow
" Long enough" Simply said Hiccup
Putting a hand on Hiccup's shoulder Scorpion said " Are you feeling better? Let out all of your frustrations out?"
" Not really my dad call me and I had to go home for a while"
" Man that sucks" Said the twins at the same time
" Yeah but I will manage" said Hiccup smirking. Turning to Astrid he said " Are you ready to go?"
" Yes but how did you know I was here"
" Instinct I guess"
" Okay than lets go" said Astrid" Bye everyone!"
" Bye As Hic" " See you guys" " Don't fuck without protection" were the answer
Hiccup just laughed before flicking them all of.
Grabbing Astrid hand when they were outside Hiccup pushed her against his chest before leaning down and whispering in her ear " And just so you know, I never know you could Twerk. Gotta say after last night you have made me a believer"
And its done ! Hope you like it, and once again sorry for the delay but I can't control the weather nor the fact that my word died on me
