AN: This One-Shot was an idea from Poke Tekken Critic. She gave me this idea as we were talking the other day and she gave it to me as a challenge. And of course, I accepted. So. Enjoy! Warning: Abuse, denial, death, and fighting between friends. ~
The school bell rang and Jack sprinted out of the classroom. He had to get to the apartment he and his boyfriend were sharing and fix things up before said boyfriend got home. Or else, he was gonna get it. "Jack!" Someone called as they ran up to him. Jack turned and smiled as he saw the familiar auburn haired, emerald eyed, freckled frame of Hamish 'Hiccup' Alexander Haddock III.
Jack and Hiccup had been friends ever since they were in third grade, and they always had each others back. Jack remembered when Hiccup tried to ask Astrid Hofferson to the school dance in middle school and how hurt he was when she laughed in his face. He also remembered how dramatic Hiccup was when he told him that he was dating the gruesome Peter 'Pitch' Black. Hiccup had told him many times that Peter wasn't any good for the white haired male. Yet, did he listen? No. And the result? Well. Jack didn't really want to talk about it. It would cause him more trouble. Especially if he told Hiccup.
"How are you?" Hiccup questioned as they walked through the halls. Jack had already packed his things (By permission of course). "I'm fine," Jack replied, lying to the other male. "I was wondering, if you wanted to go see a movie this weekend," Hiccup stated as they reached his locker. "Can't," Jack replied as he thought up an excuse. Hiccup raised and eyebrow,"What's your excuse this time?" Jack's eyes narrowed,"What do you mean by that Haddock?" "I mean," Hiccup explained,"That you always have an excuse to not come and hang out. What's it this time?" "I gotta get home and do home work," Jack replied, obviously lying. It was Friday. And the teachers were nice enough to not give the students home work for the weekend. Seeing as the next week was Summer vacation.
"Jack," Hiccup turned to face his friend,"I haven't hung out with you, for five months. Can't Peter just give you one day to hang out with a friend?" Jack looked at the ground. "No," He answered as he felt tears come to his eyes,"I have to go." He then ran from the hall not even acknowledging Hiccup's calls for him to wait. He just kept running. He didn't stop till he got to his apartment.
(AN: Sorry if I make you upset in any way, shape or form.)
Jack got home that afternoon and the first thing to greet him was a punch in the stomach. Sending him to hit his back on the wall with a loud THUD! "You're late Jack," yellow teeth sneered as sharp icy breath hit the blue eyed boy's pale skin,"You were due home five minutes ago!" Jack was panting. And Pitch didn't like it when he didn't answer. Jack's reward? A forceful punch, square in the jaw. Much to Pitch's own amusement, tears swelled into his 'victims' icy blue eyes.
Jack knew what was to happen next. Yet he was to blind to do anything about it. "What were you doing Jack?" Pitch questioned mockingly quiet. His voice then seeming to shout,"Were you with that swine you call a friend?!" "Don't call Hiccup a pig!" Jack yelled in defense. Earning himself the unlucky fortune of a bloody nose. Pitch got close to Jack's ear. Jack could practically feel him smirking. There was a small, tiny moment of blissful silence. Then Pitch whispered to Jack, the smirk still glued on the older males lips,"Go to your closet and pray." It was a small simple command. And Jack knew it wasn't the time to answer. Yet, stubbornness got the best of him. "No," he half whispered, half whimpered. That made Pitch's anger boil.
He tightened the other male's arms behind his back. Rewarding him a scream from the victim of this brutal torture. It was to late to hold back the tears. Because that one scream, earned Jack a rough kick in his back. Which he was sure broke 3-4 of his ribs. Then multiple kicks in his groin. He was on his hands and knees as he felt Pitch strip him of his jacket and his blue shirt. Revealing blameless skin that had healed from their wounds months ago. To bad that the scarlet color of blood was to travel over the pale skin once more. After a quick and soft run over of the skin with his hands, Pitch took off his belt.
"No," Jack whimpered,"Please Peter. No-" CRACK! A large, skinny streak of blood, painted the white canvas of Jack's back, the color of pure scarlet. "THIS WILL TEACH YOU!" Pitch shouted as he continued to make his canvas with the stainful color of scarlet,"YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCK!" Jack heard the belt being thrown aside. Then he groaned in pain as two fists slammed into his left shoulder. Then he was forced to face his boyfriend. A mocking like kiss placed onto his forehead. Then, the unfortunate force of Pitch's heel, gaining presence with Jack's mouth. The minute he spit out the blood that formed in his mouth. Was the minute Jack entered the soothing presence of the darkness that was his unconsciousness.
When he woke up, he saw that he was on the couch and a note was stuck to the TV. 'Went to visit my cousin Seraphine. I'll be back by the end of the week. And I expect the place to be spotless. - Pitch,' it said. Jack sighed with relief. He could spend the week with Hiccup. Jack pulled out his phone and found three texts unread in his inbox. Two from Hiccup and one from Pitch. Pitch sent his text two days ago and Hiccup had sent both his texts three days ago. Had he really been asleep for that long?
He then looked at Pitch's text. 'Seraphine insists I stay in Europe with her. The place is your hell to deal with. See you never you fuck.'
Hiccup's two texts. 1. 'Hey, um. You wanna come over? Or is Peter holding you against your own damn will?' 2. 'Hey, you haven't replied. Are you okay? I'll come over later to check on you. P.s. I want you to meet someone.' Jack was confused as to who Hiccup wanted him to meet, yet if Hiccup was friends with this someone, Jack could get used to them.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Jack tried to get up, but the throbbing pain in his back said otherwise. Jack looked for a way to open the door from sitting down. No luck. The door was unlocked. Probably cause of Pitch. "It's open," Jack called, seeing that the doorknob was being turned slowly and hesitantly. He smiled weakly as he saw Hiccup and another boy come into the room. At least he wasn't alone.
"Hey Jack," The auburn haired boy said as he walked into the living room with the other kid close behind. This kid was a lot taller the Hiccup. Looked older too. He looked like he could attend college with the right attire. His jet black hair brushing near his eyes. His acid green eyes staring down at the limp, white haired male as if giving him a waning. Hiccup cleared his throat. "Jack," He then said,"This is Terrence Fury. Terrence, that's Jack." "Jack," Terrence repeated,"As in Jack 'Frost'?" Hiccup nodded.
"You're dating Peter Black, right?" Terrence questioned facing Jack. "Not anymore," Jack replied. "What happened?" Hiccup questioned sitting at the end of Jack's legs. He sighed,"Pitch broke up with me a couple days ago. I didn't notice till now." There was a moment of silence. "You wanna go do something with us?" Terrence questioned as he placed his hands on Hiccup's shoulders. Jack looked at the two with innocent eyes then nodded. "Just give me a few minutes to get ready," He requested earning nods from his friends.
Terrence then left the room into the hall of the building. Hiccup placed a soft hand on Jack's legs and the older male tried not to wince. "You okay?" Hiccup questioned as their eyes met. Jack nodded. Hiccup then smiled as he got up and joined Terrence in the hall.
"Is he okay?" Terrence questioned, putting his hands in his pockets. Hiccup sighed,"I can tell he's hiding something Toothless. I can see it in his eyes." Terrence sighed as he and his boyfriend leaned against the wall. Silence falling between them.
The next few days passed like a blur. One minute, Hiccup's at the top with both his best friend and his boyfriend with him. The next. Hiccup was at the bottom, sitting in the waiting room of the hospital, waiting for news that his boyfriend was alright. Jack did this. He didn't mean to. It just. Happened.
The friends had a fight two days before. And Hiccup hadn't been able to sleep ever since.
Hiccup and Terrence came over that Monday of Summer vacation to see Jack. The white haired teen had been acting strange for months and Hiccup thought that it would be the right time to ask why. Well, it wasn't.
"Jack," He had said,"Why is it that you never wanna hang out?" Jack didn't answer. He was to scared as to what Hiccup would've said or done to him. He knew he could trust Hiccup. It was just. That Jack had hid this for months and to suddenly talk about it seemed. Unnatural. As if it seemed stupid to tell his best friend about what stood between their plans to hang out. Hiccup and Terrence left the apartment just as Jack picked up the phone that started ringing like murder. All seemed to be calm as the closed the door. Then, yelling could be heard from inside the apartment. Though, it seemed that the white haired male inside was yelling to himself. Then they heard five words that stuck out, clear as a bell in their ears.
Peter.
Abuse.
Forced.
Inside.
Hiccup.
Something bad was going on and they were going to find out. Yet when they came back with lunch three hours later, Terrence just couldn't keep his self control. "What is it your not telling us?!" He yelled, gripping onto Jack's shoulders. Jack screamed with how hard Terrence's nails were against his bruised skin. With that, Terrence ripped Jack's shirt off Jack's back. Hiccup, watching the whole thing, gasped with disbelief. Bruises lined the back of Jack's shoulders and down his back. Marks of what were whip lines, lined around the bruises against his back. It was to horrifying for Hiccup to see.
"Jack," He said, tears slowly coming to his eyes,"Did Pitch do this to you?" Jack glared and reached for his shirt, but Terrence pulled it away,"Answer the question, Frost." Jack shook his head,"No-" "Liar!" Hiccup screamed. Both His boyfriend and his best friend jumped at the sudden out burst. "Don't act like I can't figure it out!" He said, tears swelling in his eyes,"Don't act like this isn't anything to worry about!"
"Hiccup-"
"No!" He interrupted,"Now I see why you couldn't hang out. Peter was beating the shit out of you and you did nothing about it!" Terrence's eyes widened at the sound of Hiccup cursing. It was almost foreign. "You think I could?!" Jack shot back,"He was gonna do worse things if I told anyone!" "What Jack?" Hiccup questioned, obviously pissed,"What was he gonna-" "He threatened me that if I told anyone," Jack said,"That. He was gonna rape you." Hiccup backed away. The thought of him being harassed, sexually, was horrifying for all three males that were present in the room.
"I think we've heard enough," Terrence spoke up after the moment of silence. He then stood up to leave. "No, Toothless," Hiccup said grabbing his wrist,"Let stay for a little longer." "No, Hamish," Terrence replied,"I'm not gonna stay here at the thought of that bastard getting to you." "So your just gonna walk out?" Hiccup questioned, slightly panicked. "I'll call you later, okay?" Hiccup nodded and Terrence was about to enter the hall, when Jack called,"You selfish bastard." "What?" Terrence questioned, glaring down at Jack.
"He just wants you to stay for a little longer," Jack remarked,"And you have the fucking nerve, get up and leave. How selfish can you get?!" "I'm just looking out for him," Terrence replied. "Oh please," Jack said,"I may not know how you got like this, but I know your strategy." "We know nothing about each other," Terrence commented. "But I know what you do," Jack said,"You paid prostitute." "Shut up!" Terrence growled. Hiccup looked at him. An expression of fear, confusion, and regret was clearly visible on his face. "Girls pay you to have your dick in their mouths and shoved up their asses," Jack said,"And you know damn right it's true."
That did it.
"Shut the fuck up!" Terrence said, his eyes glowing with rage. He then threw his fist in Jack's direction. Hiccup, being his own stubborn self, got in the middle of the interaction and earned himself a broken rib. "Hiccup!" Jack screamed, kneeling down beside him. Terrence's expression grew soft. He glanced at his hand, then back at Hiccup and Jack. He turned and went to leave when he felt a sharp pain in his back. "How dare you do that to him?!" Jack demanded, his knuckles red and sore from the punch he gave the taller teen. "It's not like I was aiming for him," Terrence muttered,"He got in the way."
Jack then grabbed Terrence's arm and twisted it behind his back. Earning a low scream as a reply. He then threw the other teen to the ground, Terrence's head hitting the hardwood floor. Jack then stood over him, staring down with murder in his eyes. He stepped onto the older teen's wrists. The weight he placed onto them earned a scream that seemed to have come from the back of the others throat. Then Jack started kicking the other teen in the face. He couldn't even hear the screams that Hiccup was throwing at him. Simply telling him to stop. He was just to pissed that the black haired, acid green eyed bastard had the nerve to punch HIS best friend.
Hiccup then grabbed Jack and threw him off the teen that laid there on the floor. Almost ever part of his face, covered with the scarlet color that was his blood. Hiccup then called for an ambulance and the next thing both teens knew, was that they were in the waiting room of the hospital.
Hiccup was just so nervous. What was gonna happen to Terrence? How was this the outcome of a simple visit? Hiccup had never seen so much anger in Jack's eyes before. In fact, he couldn't remember the last time Jack ever flared like that towards someone else. "Mr. Haddock," The doctor suddenly called. Hiccup looked at her and walked over as the doctor closed the door behind herself. "Is he gonna be ok?" Hiccup then questioned. The doctor shook her head and handed her a piece of paper. Hiccup's eyes widened as he read the paper.
"Hiccup," It said,"If your reading this, I want you to do me a favor. Stay with Jack. I'm sorry that I acted so selfishly. I'm sorry that I never told you about the whole 'Paid Prostitute' thing. But since I'm no longer here I might as well wish that you be with Jack. You've known him most of your life and I know how you feel towards him. I want you to be happy, Hamish. And if that means knowing your with someone else, I'm fine with that. Go live your life with someone that makes you happy. I wish you a long lasting life, Hamish. And I'll see you at the golden gates of Heaven. ~ Terrence Nathaniel Fury."
The two old friends didn't speak to each other for, at least a month. It was the middle of July that they actually spoke to each other after the incident. Jack had went over to Hiccup's house to apologize for his outburst and for his rude behavior. Hiccup lead him inside and made some green tea for himself.
"I am really sorry Hic," Jack said as the two males sat on the black leather couch,"I didn't mean for that to happen." "It's ok, Jack," Hiccup replied, taking a sip of his drink,"He would've, in a way, broken up with me sooner or later." Jack then turned to the auburn haired male with a confused look,"What?" "I knew he was earning money from girls," Hiccup explained,"I just didn't want to believe it. And it just confirmed its self as you two were fighting about the situation."
"I'm still sorry," Jack said. "I know," Hiccup replied, placing his drink on the table beside him. "How can I make it up to you?" Jack then questioned, facing the younger teen. "Well," Hiccup answered,"I don't know." "Come on, Haddock!" Jack complained,"There must be something you want me to do for you." Hiccup smirked as he placed a quick peck onto Jack's cheek. "How about you take me out to dinner some time?" "That works," Jack said,"One condition."
"What?"
"You kiss me the right way next time."
With that, the two started doing dares and bets for each other. And as fate would have it, they became boyfriends. Not giving a damn about what others said about them. Because all they cared about, was each other. ~
AN: Done. Basically, what I had to do, was take the pairing I hate the most, a pairing that I'm ok with and my OTP, and use them in a fanfic. I have nothing against PitchXJack, or ToothlessXHiccup, those are the pairings that aren't my favorites. So, review on what u all think and I'll see u all l8ters!
