This is for the lovely .3 for making my day with that lovely review!

Soo yeah...

Head between ya knees people, this might hurt.

Hiccup woke back up slowly, almost sluggishly. His hearing came back first, then feeling. Sight didn't come back as quickly, and it may have something to do with the fact the archer didn't attempt to open his eyes, but Hiccup didn't care. His whole body hurt. His arm was throbbing, his head was throbbing, and his chest felt as if there was a great pressure on it. Finally opening his eyes, Hiccup looked toward his arm to figure out why it felt tighter that normal.

He raised his hand to gingerly touch his head, feeling another bandage. Sitting up slowly, Hiccup looked around the small clearing he was lying in. To his surprised, a bunch of furs covered him, leaving him feeling pleasantly warm, yet still rather groggy. He looked to his left, sleepily taking in the gentle frost over the rocks, before he looked right. A floating boy didn't register in his head until he looked away, and then did a double take, jumping backwards away from him, and banging his already sore head on a rock. The floating boy, who had incredible bright blue eyes, laughed, and Hiccup glared.

"Why would you do that?!" Hiccup asked, hands holding his head.

The other's bare feet touched the rock beside the archer, and a cold hand touched Hiccup's head, the coldness seemingly calming his pounding headache.

"Sorry, I didn't know you'd react that way." The boy replies with a grin, causing Hiccup to roll his eyes and scowl slightly. "You're not from around here are you? You're supposed to stop before you hit the wall."

Hiccup blinked at the other before raising an eyebrow.

"I can't fly so that's a wee bit difficult." Hiccup rolled his eyes sarcastically, slightly amused.

The other's grin grows wider, white teeth seemingly sparkling at the archer, taunting him, at his own crooked teeth.

"So first off, who are you?" Hiccup frowned.

The hand disappeared from Hiccup's head, and the white haired male stood up before twirling a shepherd's staff in his hand.

"The name is Frost. Jack Frost. I'll be your tour guide and sidekick in the world known as Season's Spirits!" Hiccup blinks as Jack bows and looks over the edge of the ledge he was on, the drop below him making him gulp when a flash of white causes him to look around. He turned back to Jack who looks at him sheepishly. "Think you're good to move, short stack?"

Hiccup scoffed at the name.

"Short stack?! I'm not that short!"

Jack smiled and stood up properly, his white tunic rustling, as brown clad legs seemed to suddenly be so much longer.

"Oh uh…how tall are you?" Hiccup asked.

Jack smirked.

"5'9 you?" Jack answered, and laughed as Hiccup scowled.

"5'4. Fine, you're taller."

A grin took form on Jack's face, and a pale hand extended forward to help Hiccup up. The Archer stumbled to his feet, and Jack tapped his staff on the frost covered wall.

"Welcome to my humble abode."

Hiccup's vibrant green eyes wandered over the large cavern, as the wall seemed to disintegrate. His gaze came to a rest on a small section, that was fairly hidden from view with old rags, that had been sown together to form some kind of curtain. Hiccup looked back toward the other male who grinned, and jumped over to a pile of snow, resting on it. A patch of moonlight filtered in through a gap in the ceiling, and illuminated Jack's white hair. Hiccup gulped, as a strange feeling wormed it's way into his chest, and he frowned when he heard a sizzling to his left. A small, doorway-like opening was just about visible, and Jack smiled, pushing himself up off the 'couch' to walk to Hiccup.

"Curious?"

Jack's voice caused Hiccup to jump slightly and blush. The auburn haired archer nodded, and turned away as the flash of white happened again, his head snapping back to Jack.

"What is that?"

Jack's eyes widened at the question and he rubbed the back of his head. Hiccup could see the sadness in the others eyes, and shook his head.

"Never mind, what's through here?" The archer stepped through the doorway tentatively, blinking as a wave of heat passed over him. He walked forward, hearing Jack following him, following the path of the heat. The smaller hall suddenly opened up to a room, that glowed and Hiccup looks around, a pit of what looked like lava, sat central in the room, a ring of rock like a shone almost.

Hiccup walked as close to the lava as he dared, and looked into it, eyes widening when something seemed to move in it. The sound of a groan and something hitting the floor tore his attention away, and he turned to see Jack sprawled out, sweat pouring down his face, with his pale skin flushed an unhealthy red.

"Jack?!" Hiccup darted over, placing a hand on the white haired man's cheek, wincing at the warmth. Hiccup's tanned arms slipped under the other man's legs, and torso, picking him up with difficulty. Despite struggling, Hiccup managed, and headed back to the other room.

The cold air hit Hiccup, and soothed his rosy cheeks- he hadn't realised how warm he'd gotten. He gently laid Jack on the 'couch', before looking for a cup, or a bowl. Spotting something silver in the corner by the curtained off section, Hiccup went and picked it up, noticing a make-shift bed from a few blankets, a rock, and a bundle of clothes. Hiccup's heart clenched, and he scooped up some snow, melting it in the hallway, before moving to Jack's still form. The red of his cheeks had lessened, but he still looked uncomfortable. Hiccup gently raised the metal cup to press against pale lips, when, right before him, Jack seemed to disappear suddenly, his body became lines and Hiccup's eyes widened.

Had Jack just... Glitched?

Shaking his head, he pressed the cup to Jack's lips again once he'd stopped glitching, and the white haired male stirred, the cool water slipping down his throat, before a cough pulled him from his unconsciousness. Bleary eyes looked around, before they landed on Hiccup's worried green ones and a tired smile was given.

"Sorry abou-"

"You glitched."

Jack froze when Hiccup spoke, his expression unreadable as he sat up, and wiped his hands over his face and through his hair.

"You.." A snort from Hiccup made Jack wince. "You bzzted"

The white haired male blinked, and looked at the archer, blue eyes searching green for signs of rejection or ridicule.

"Yeah well…better than sounding like a kitten." Jack muttered, a small smile tugging at the edge of his mouth, and Hiccup's mouth opened.

"A ki- a kitten!" The mock anger pushed Jack over the edge, and a grin was back. "I'll have you know that I just saved your pasty ass." Jack raised an eyebrow, and his teeth latched onto his bottom lip.

"And what a fine ass you saved freckles"

The blush that appeared on Hiccup's face made Jack laugh, causing Hiccup to smile softly. Sitting beside Jack on the couch, Hiccup looked at the metal cup in his hands, his elbows on his knees, Jack mimicking the pose. Both had sobered up, Jack feeling better yet still rather tired.

"So... Why did you...y'know…"

"Glitch?" Jack offered, and Hiccup nodded.

The white haired man sighed, and looked toward the doorway- his staff still leant against the wall where he'd placed it before following Hiccup.

"I don't know, I've always done it. The others won't talk to me, the big 4 won't help me and our 'great and merciful king' won't see me."

Hiccup watched Jack's face as he spoke, sadness coating Frost's face. Jack sighed and put his head in his hands, palms pressing into his eyes, as Hiccup put an arm around his shoulders, Hiccup's warmth giving the cold male goose bumps.

"Jack, how long have you been like this?"

Jack's pale hands slipped from his face and thumbs started picking at loose skin from calluses.

"5 years today."

Hiccup sighed- he'd been in Battle of Berk for 5 years today, the isolation seemingly similar yet so very different.

"Maybe if we go to the king's castle he'll listen."

Jack smiled and looked at Hiccup.

"You don't have to do this Hiccup. The only way to get into the castle is to gather the 4 gems. One for each season." Jack stood, and swayed for a second, before he walked over to the bed, and started searching for something. Hiccup watched, catching himself staring at Jack's 'fine ass.

A secret he'd been hiding since the start for his preference of partner so to speak. His thoughts were so scattered he didn't realise Jack had sat beside him again, not until a cold, almost translucent crystal was placed in his hands.

"What's this?" The archer asked, and Jack smiled.

"The first piece of the puzzle." Jack answered.

Hiccup looked at Jack and smiled.

"Well! That makes it easier."

Jack smiled, and watched the other's face as he studied the crystal, his green tunic complimenting his tanned skin and emerald eyes, and Jack suddenly found himself content. For the first time…he didn't feel so alone anymore.
