"Why Won't You Help Me"

As soon as Hiccup left the academy, Thuggory bolted as fast as he could away from that place. He screwed it. He was a dead man. He needed to find Hiccup and make him answer a simple question…

Why was he so calm about everything?! Wasn't he so adamant in breaking him and Heather off? Why the sudden change?! He needed to know but first he must find him. That was when he heard a distinct roar from the distance. He looked up and he finally saw the person he was looking for. Actually, he saw the dragon of that person he was looking for.

Toothless was currently soaring through the sky, doing cartwheels, summersaults, spinning and other tricks him and Hiccup made up. Toothless missed these days. He felt sad that his partner most of the time ignored him. He understood that Hiccup had responsibilities but that didn't give the boy an excuse for not making time for him.

Hiccup once again felt like he was on the top of the world, a place where no one could best him. A sanctuary of sorts.

"Hiccup!"

And then his temporary sanctuary was broken. Hiccup groaned as he turned Toothless towards the voice that was calling him. Thuggory was riding his dragon, Thughead. It still astounded Hiccup that Thuggory took the baby Red Death with him.

"Thuggory…" Hiccup said, his voice void from emotion

"Hiccup…"

"I know why you're here…"

"If you do then why…"

Hiccup glared coldly at Thuggory "Because why should I help the person currently hurting my sister?" he asked coldly "Why should I waste my time trying to convince those two girls to not hurt you when you already did in the first place?"

"It wasn't on purpose!" Thuggory snapped

"Wasn't on purpose?!" Hiccup snapped back "You promised my sister that you would marry her! You promised that you wouldn't hurt her! I even gave you my consent against my better judgment! Instead, what did you do? You had sex with your previous girlfriend!"

"We never broke up!"

"Oh now that makes perfect sense!" Hiccup mustered with as much sarcasm as he could "You thought that just because you two never broke up you could away with fucking with Cami?! Fuck you Thug!" Hiccup never swore but he was already so pissed with his supposed best friend.

Thuggory sighed and lowered his head "I'm sorry, ok? I never meant for any of this to happen…"

Hiccup narrowed his eyes "You think apologizing is going to fix things? You think just because you feel bad makes them forgive you?" Hiccup turned Toothless around so Thuggory was behind him "No it does not… It isn't that easy… Because of what you did, nothing will ever be the same again" he gave Thuggory a pained look "Because of what you did, you just ruined two peoples' trust with each other" he said before flying off

Thuggory gazed at Hiccup as he flew away. After a minute, he sighed and looked down

"I know…" he said to himself as he flew to the opposite direction.

-Few hours later-

Astrid was getting worried, it was already an hour past noon and she still couldn't find Hiccup. She looked everywhere in the village. She was now riding Blindspot above the forest. There was only one place she knew that she could possibly find Hiccup in.

She was right. She found Hiccup in the cove. The same cove where they befriended Toothless. The same cove where Hiccup confessed his feelings for her.

As she landed Blindspot next to Toothless, she saw that Hiccup was currently doodling on the dirt. She walked towards him and peered at his drawing. His drawing was too obvious, even Snotlout could guess what it was, probably. Hiccup was doodling himself while strangling someone, who Astrid "guessed" was Thuggory, using a stick much like the one he used to draw Toothless before.

She sat next to him and rested her head on his shoulder which he didn't mind.

"Hey…" Astrid mumbled

"Hey…"

"What are you doodling?"

Hiccup shrugged without moving the shoulder where Astrid was situated "Me thinking of ways how to maim Thuggory without actually killing him…"

Astrid snorted "Wow… that escalated quickly…"

"Since you're not asking why I'm doing this, I'm guessing that you already knew what happened?" Astrid got his full attention

Astrid nodded "There's one thing I'm curious about though, according to Heather and Cami, you were calm about it… In fact, they said you were too calm. Like you expected that to happen."

Hiccup sighed as he threw the stick he was holding "In a way…"

"What do you mean?"

"I didn't want to voice this but I knew the moment Thug and Cami met on that boat a few days ago something would happen." He gazed at Toothless and Blindspot while they were having a conversation of their own and Toothless was… rubbing his head… against Blindspot's?

Hiccup shook his head and turned his gaze towards Astrid "Is it just me or Toothless and Blindspot… cuddling?"

"Uhmm…" Astrid tilted her head "I guess so… but they aren't the same species… how is that going to work?" she looked at Hiccup for answers "Well?"

"What? Why are you asking me?"

"You're the dragon expert"

Hiccup scoffed, clearly trying to ignore the two dragons so that they could keep their privacy

"What about you? You're just as knowledgeable as me about dragons!"

"When it comes to battle tactics and how they attack. You, on the other hand, are more knowledgeable when it comes to relationships"

"Technically its dragon AND human relationship so you get the idea."

Astrid sighed "We're getting off topic, what do you mean that something would happen between them? How did you know that they still had feelings for each other?"

"Because whenever there were meetings among Berk, Meathead and Bog-Burglars, Cami would purposely flirt with Thuggory to make him uncomfortable, this was before they had a relationship of course. Things change about three years ago. Not only did Cami stop flirting with him, she also seemed to get jealous when other girls tried to flirt with him."

"What do you mean tried? Was he that unapproachable?"

Hiccup snorted "He was like a male version of you, before we became close at least. Before, Thug only cared about training and fighting. He never had friends in their village. The only reason why he was friends with me and Cami was because of our parents."

"Hey!" Astrid puffed out her cheeks "I was not like that! I became friends with Ruffnut, remember?"

Hiccup shrugged "Well besides that at least. What I'm trying to say was that Thuggory was pretty dense when dealing with girls so when some of them flirted with him, he just presumed that they were there to annoy him."

"Just like you?" Astrid asked while she snuggled closer to Hiccup

"Yea-wait! I was… am not dense!" he defended

"Yeah sure… I gave you so much hints and you only grew a pair two years ago"

Hiccup groaned "Give me a break! I was still having insecurities that time! How in the world would I know that you felt the same way?"

"Uhmm… I don't know… by asking?" she deadpanned

"Well I…" Hiccup blinked as he registered what she just said "Wait, are you telling me that all I had to do was ask and you would tell me?"

Astrid shrugged once again "Hey, I'm a straightforward kind of girl. No point in hiding something so obvious"

Hiccup sighed as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Even to this day, he STILL didn't understand girls…

-Later that evening-

Thuggory entered his room inside his ship tiredly. He was spending most of the day trying to run from the two women he had feelings for. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't pick on over the other.

Camicazi, the girl he had/have a relationship with that became complicated when she suddenly disappeared. It was quite obvious that his feelings for her never diminished. Forelonged, yes, but never gone.

Then there was Heather, the girl he met almost two weeks ago. Sure he rushed things when he promised that he would marry her but he never regretted in saying it. He just felt that they had a connection with each other.

He sighed as he slumped his way to his bed. When he was on the foot of the bed, he fell back on his bed and gazed at the ceiling. He was so tired that he didn't notice two figures positioning themselves at either side of him and wrapped themselves on each of his arms.

Thuggory felt the warmth from the two sources and instantly fell asleep while the two figures were glaring daggers at each other.

AN: Well… Thuggory sure got his work cut out for him… Enjoy and Review!
