"The way he treated the cat; he treated her like a person"
"Because she's his only family," that was the last thing that came out from his mouth before he went to sleep followed by his brother.
Astrid didn't question again as she doesn't want to get into a touchy subject. Now she knew why RJ went angry when she was about to kick Yuki. She was harming his only family.
Chapter 10
Despite all the tips RJ gave her, she still couldn't beat the Night Fury brothers, especially the younger one. She did once beat Toothless, only once. But with Hiccup, that happen when only pigs fly, she had to admit.
They raced up and down the hidden hill behind RJ's house and Astrid underestimated his 'backyard'. She did use it as her training ground and warm-ups. They took a rest at noon that day but not everyone did. Hiccup was still training on his own at the training ground.
"Isn't he tired with all that training and racing?" Astrid asked, earning a snort from Toothless.
"With all the excitement running through his veins, it'll be awhile," he stated as he sipped up the ice lemonade made by RJ.
"Beside," RJ continued, pausing from sipping his personal blend of tea. "He still pursuing his ultimate goal," Astrid raised her curious eyebrows.
"What's his ultimate goal?" Toothless froze as RJ put down his tea. He sighed before he answered.
"Do you know about the legendary White Charger?" Astrid thought for a moment before she answered.
"From what I heard, White Charger was a racer that died long time ago, some where on the early seventies. He drove a white 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona that was built for extreme speed until to the point where he crossed the finishing line more than an hour before other racers ever showed. They said that he died before he even got a chance to race in the final in his time. So he didn't die peacefully and his soul wandered around the streets, showing up only during finals, ten years ago. Three years after his appearance, he suddenly went disappeared. The only thing he left was the legend and a roar of his engine"
"Yes, him," said RJ while he watched the Stingray shot passed by. "Well, White Charger was Henry's ultimate goal," that earned a shock from Astrid. Toothless then took over the story.
"When White Charger was still on the street, he was never been beaten, even by me. So that sparked his interest about the White Charger. Even at the very young age, his determination – and stubbornness – was very strong that I was willingly to help him to fulfill his goal. He still held onto his goal even after White Charger disappearance"
"At the age of ten, Hank brought him to the scrap yard, looking for a vehicle since they agreed on starting from scratch. Henry's eyes caught the Stingray, despite Hank insisted on choosing the Supra instead. As time went on, they began to rebuild the Stingray. If I didn't intervene months ago, the Stingray wouldn't be finish in the next five years"
"At the age of fifteen, I began to teach him some driving skills and it nearly got both of us killed. But I wouldn't be surprise since he and I are brothers. He was a quick learner, very quick I might say. Months ago I decided to bring him here since my teaching was horrible and I was sure that RJ was interested in his goal"
"I did actually"
"And now, looked at him; still training for perfection, even after the White Charger disappearance," Toothless shook his head. "The stubbornness in him is similar like our father. He still wouldn't believe that story about the White Charger and one day, he said, he will race with him"
"That's… an interesting story," muttered Astrid as she didn't notice the Stingray drifted around the bent. Then she remembered she spotted something when she first arrived. "Hey, um… RJ, can I ask you something?"
"You already did but fire away"
"What's in the garage?" RJ noticeably stiffened. His hold on the mug of his tea tightened white grip knuckles. His eyes became distant over a memory, swelling up with tears. Suddenly, Yuki jumped on to his lap, balancing one paw on his shoulder and licked his cheek in comfort, bringing him back to reality. He released a shaky breath before he replied.
"One thing that I don't want history repeat itself," he said as he put down his tea and held Yuki closed who purred deeply in comfort.
Not long after that, the Stingray drifted into their view and stopped in front of them, giving them the final roar before went to sleep as Hiccup stepped out, sweating but light on his feet.
"Wow, I'm tired as hell"
"If you've been training around the backyard for more than seven hours then that's normal," replied sarcastically Astrid as she rolled her eyes.
"Hey, sarcasms only work best on me"
"Well, how about a lunch at a restaurant. Everything's on me," RJ said with a smile and a hand on Yuki's fur. The other three looked at him with hopeful eyes.
"Really?" asked Toothless.
"Sure, why not?" the three fist-pumped the air.
RJ insisted on leaving the Stingray behind so that Hiccup won't have any suspicions so he joined his brother in his Skyline while RJ with Astrid in her 370Z. Their vehicles did catch some eyes but none were threatening. Luckily cops weren't around.
When the five arrived at a certain restaurant, the waiter couldn't do anything other than quivered in fear when he said to RJ that Yuki weren't allowed. Even the restaurant manager shrunk in fear on the look. At last, the five at inside the restaurant with Yuki sat up on RJ's lap with her front paws on the table, attracting attentions from everyone by her cuteness.
During at their lunch that afternoon, Astrid couldn't help herself but stared at Hiccup who sat in front of her as she ate. It was the first time she saw him smiling genuinely without sarcasms or anything. He even laughed and that sounded music to her ears, she doesn't know why.
She can't help herself but noticed how handsome he had got over the years. He was among the best students in Berk High School and now he was the best racer on the street that not even his brother could beat him. His mad driving skills made him more attractive.
And his current clothing didn't help her from avoiding the thoughts. He was wearing full black tight leather from neck to toes except for the green undershirt under his unbuttoned black tight leather jacket with a red skull logo on his right shoulder.
When he got up from his seat to go to the toilet, she couldn't help herself but stared at his ass that fit perfectly with black tight leather trousers that. She wondered how firm his ass was. She was a little disappointed that his ass disappeared from her sight.
She was oblivious from the snickers came from Toothless and RJ's twitching lips, along with Yuki curious gaze.
Astrid was dating with Scotty because of his big reputation and she didn't love him, after all. In fact, she hated him. Now, since he was beaten by Hiccup, he lost his reputation and was now called a coward since he ran away after the race with his cousin.
Her eyes were now on Hiccup since he was now the best racer on the street. She was looking forward for a relationship with him. But Hiccup seemed to be the person who would be in a relationship not because of their status but because of who they are. So he will definitely reject her when she asked him. Does she like him? Well-
"Wow, she was so lost in thoughts, she doesn't even realize that her hair is now soaked wet by the glass of water I poured onto it. What was she thinking anyway?"
"Oh, she's probably thinking how hot your younger brother is. Looks like Henry will be marry before you do, Hank"
"And she still didn't heard you said that"
"Probably thinking about the color of the eyes of her children"
"Well, for me, she's probably thinking about the wedding night," still lost in her thought, a blush appeared on her face, somehow confirming Toothless' guess.
