11 Complicated Lives
POV Jack
The bathroom mirror was foggy after I had taken a warm shower. I wipe the mirror clean and I look at my reflection. A week later the bruises are still showing but the cut on my side has started to heal up nicely. Before going to bedroom I tighten the towel around my waist and I sigh.
I haven't been able to do much for few days except resting. I ruffle my hair dry with smaller towel just before my phone started to ring. "Yeah," I responded to Hiccup. "So are you feeling any better?" He sounded amused. "Haha, really funny. And for the hundredth time, this time I wasn't beaten up by a girl," I groaned and Hiccup was laughing uncontrollably. "S-sorry Jack, you and her are just so amusing couple," Hiccup chuckled.
"We are NOT a couple Hiccs!" I yelled angrily and he was still laughing. ""I will hang up, bye," I said while grinning deviously. "Wait!" He yelled just before I managed to turn off the call. "Jack?" Hiccup asks. "Yeah, still here," I responded when I sit down to my bed.
"Awesome! Hey, I got contact from our friend Flynn Rider. He is back at the town again. So.. poker game this evening?" Hiccups excited voice caused me to laugh. "Sure, come to my home at nine. I will finish reading to Emma by then," I told to him. "Alright, see you. I will give a call to Flynn," Hiccup said.
"Bye Jack!" Hiccup ended the call and I placed my phone to table. I took my blue hoodie and brown pants from closet. After getting dressed I walked downstairs. There was already breakfast served and Emma was sitting at the table.
Emma smiled when I pulled the chair out and sat in it. "Morning Jack," she said happily. "Why are you so happy today?" I laughed when I took a piece of toasted bread. "I was just wondering if that girl could come to visit us some day?" Emma sounded hopeful.
I was munching my bread, "What girl?" I said when I started to read the newspaper. "The one with nice voice. I think that she was here a week ago to check our dry food closet," Emma sounded amused. I almost choked to a piece of bread which I was just chewing.
"I don't have her number!" I said quickly. In fact I really don't have her number. "Well if you see her you should ask her to visit." I sighed, "Fine. Now just eat." I see from corner of my eye how Emma is grinning way too happily.
POV Rapunzel
This morning I ate fast the muffins that I did for breakfast yesterday. Today was Elsa's day off so I can to my computer without big interruptions. Well, Gothel sometimes comes to brush my hair but I don't care about that too much.
Quickly I went back to my space to my computer. I opened Wattpad immediately after my computer was opened. "Whoa, this many new votes and comments! Oh gosh, even my private message box is exploding," I gasped. First I shall go through my private messages. One username popped out especially. That person is my favorite Snowflake Blizzard shipper and writer!
"THIS IS AWESOME!" I squealed when I opened the message from her. I read the message aloud, "Hey! I really love your story about Snowflake Blizzard. Could we be friends? =)"
Quickly I responded to SnowflakeBlizzard "Of course we can!" . Soon I got a response, the chat went on for hours and I lost track of time. We even started planning a fan meeting for all the Snowflake Blizzard shippers. It will be awesome! SnowflakeBlizzard had to leave and I looked outside. The weather was nice looking so I decided to head for town.
Gothel was a bit hesitating like always when it comes to letting me out. Pitch told her to shut up and I got away. Even though it is March the weather is still fresh and crisp. I decided to go to a park where it is like in winter wonderland. The frost is decorating the trees with ice crystals and the sun is shining. It is beautiful afternoon.
Beautiful but bit cold, I think when I have to rub my shoulders to get warmer. There is a man selling warm juice from stand so I head there. "One warm juice please," I smile to the man. "That will be one dollar miss," the man smiles to me and I start to dig through my pockets.
"My treat," someone says from behind of me and I glance over my shoulder. I see a tall muscular man. His hair and eyes are brown and he has short beard. He gives the juice selling man two dollars and buys a drink to himself too. I walk next to him, "Thank you." I smile to him and he smiles back. "No problem, miss?" He chuckles.
"My name is Rapunzel but you can call me Punzie," I giggle and he smiles. "Nice to meet you Punzie. My name is Flynn," we shake hands and he goes to bench which he clears out from snow. "Do you live here?" He asks me before sipping some juice. "Kind of, yes.. You?" I said while my fingers brushed the edges of the cup. "Nope. I travel around, I am in business here." He winks his eye.
Flynn is actually nice considering the conversation which we had. He left after his friend called but he gave me his number and I gave him mine. I wish to see him again, hear about the things he has experienced while traveling. We could have fun together, have adventures but I don't know if Gothel will let me.
Again I am back at the warehouse, the secret base of the Nightmares. I go to my sort of room, sat on the same chair which I have sat many times. Gothel comes to my room, takes my silver brush and sits behind of me. "How was your day sweetheart?" She asks from me and starts to comb my hair. "Same as other days," I sigh. I won't let her know about my writer life or who I met today. It would mean trouble. "Good," she chuckles. "Now, sing," Gothel orders me and I start to sing like I do every day.
Flower, gleam and glow
Let your power shine
Make the clock reverse
Bring back what once was mine
Heal what has been hurt
Change the Fates' design
Save what has been lost
Bring back what once was mine
What once was mine
POV Hiccup
After ending the call with Jack I immediately phoned Flynn who promised to be in time. We get to know him shortly after we started doing crimes, I found out his criminal records from police database and we sort of blackmailed him to tell his secret hints to us. Now we are friends and play poker sometimes.
Sitting behind of my computers screen without doing anything isn't the usual me. I groan because of frustration and I grab my phone. "Where is her number," I whisper while searching through the saved numbers. "Ha! Found it," I say happily when it is already calling for Merida.
"Merida DunBroch," I hear her responding. "Umm.. I was wondering if you would want to hang out for while? I got nothing to do for few hours and I had fun with you last time," I say to her while I am nervously playing with a pen. "Sure, pick me up and we could go to cafeteria?" She says and I try not to show her how excited I am.
"Great! See you in half an hour?" I say cheerfully. "Sounds alright, see ya," she giggles and closes the call. Quickly I get ready and run to my car. Merida was already waiting for me, her hair was loose and curly red. She was dressed in sport type clothes in green.
She came inside my car, "Hey!" She smiled while clipping her belt. "Umm.. hey," I said and my cheeks blushed. We drove to city centre and we went to cafeteria. We both choose to drink regular coffee. Her fingers were restlessly tapping her coffee cup.
"Something wrong?" I asked from her and she glanced at me. She sighed, "Well.. I have problems with my mom. She wants me to be girly and attend to parties to socialize. I am not that type of girl." Merida frowned and placed her hands on table. "You can be whatever you want?" I whispered and placed my hand over hers. She pulled her hand back, "Thanks."
We drink our coffee in silence. "What type of things interest you?" I managed to spit out. "I like archery and horseriding," she laughed. "Nice! I am really good with computers and I read," I smiled to her and then her eyes lit out. "What you read? My friend made me read some stuff and it is actually good!" Merida gasped and jumped up. The coffee cup almost fell.
"W-well.. some fanfiction about Snowflake Burglar," I blushed and tried to look away. "ME TOO!" Merida squealed. Then she looked at the clock, "Umm.. I need to catch the buss and go to my horse's stable. See you some other time?" She gave her hand and I took it. She had a strong grip when we shook hands. "I hope that you're coming to fan meeting of Snowflake Burglar shippers on Sunday?" She winked her eye. "Uh, if I have time I will," I said while rubbing my neck. "Cool! Bye!" Merida left the cafeteria.
I look at the clock and I see that it isn't evening yet. Anyway I decide to pick up Flynn already. I give him a call and he responds quickly, "Hey Hiccup!" Flynn says while laughing. I hear that someone is with him. "Is that a girl laughing?" I say while teasing. "Uh, yeah," Flynn mumbles.
"I know that we still have few hours before poker game but would you want to come to my place already? I really could use your opinions about couple of gigs we have been thinking of." I said the rest with quiet voice so the people in the cafeteria wouldn't pay so much attention.
Now Flynn seems to be talking to that girl but soon I notice him talking to phone again. "Yup, it is alright.. I got her number now!" Flynn laughs cheerfully and we agreed on meeting place. I am picking him up from town hall.
We managed to do lots of information sharing with Flynn. He has been a thief all of his life so me and Jack are quite new to the business. "Jack is with his sister again?" Flynn asked when we reached Jack's houses front door. "Yeah but it is about nine so then he is free," I said and knocked the door. A servant opened and greeted us. Suddenly I heard running steps, "Thank you!" Jack laughed to his servant when he placed his hand over the servants shoulder. "You may go home now," Jack smiled and the servant nodded to him.
"I never get used to your place!" Flynn said to Jack while looking the insides of the mansion. "Yeah, it is a bit big," Jack sighed. "Well, room for growing family," Flynn winked his eye and caused Jack to turn red. "You haven't been reading fanfics, have you?" I laughed to Flynn who, for my surprise, nodded. Jack groaned and turned around, walking fast to living room.
I shrug my shoulders to laughing Flynn and we both follow Jack. "So, where is this Mrs. Snowflake Burglar.. White Blizzard?" Flynn teases Jack who was now dealing the cards. "We are not together Flynn," Jack hissed to him and Flynn chuckled. "You should read those fanfics.. they are hilarious and make you two fit well together," Flynn leaned his chin on his hands.
"No way," Jack said quickly. "She is way too sassy," Jack said and was now making three piles from the playing cards. Jack took a sip from his drink and spit it out when Flynn spoke, "So are you .. Jack." Jack was coughing, "I am not sassy!" Flynn rolled his eyes, "Well.. cocky then.. but have you ever dated anyone?" Flynn smiled to Jack.
Jack sighed, "No but it definitely won't be her. She is trouble." Jack ended the card dealing and handed us our cards. "Have you even kissed anyone?" Flynn sighed and Jack's cheeks turned to crimson red. "YOU HAVE! Haha!" Flynn seemed satisfied. "It meant nothing, it was for distraction," Jack mumbled.
Flynn was sitting next to Jack and now he pushed Jack from his shoulder. "C'mon! It must have felt nice at least, first kiss? huh?" Flynn grinned mischievously. "Uh.. Flynn.. I suggest that you stop now," I said while glancing at Jack who already pouted angrily. "S-sure?" Flynn mumbled.
I lean closer to Flynn, "He had to kiss White Blizzard and ended up being slapped." I whisper to Flynn. "Hiccup," Jack said angrily and I cleared my throat. "SO! How about some poker?" I tried to change the subject. "Sure," Flynn laughed and Jack frowned while staring at his cards.
Playing poker with Jack isn't easy. His poker face might be bad but he tricks us all the time. He might pretend to having it rough but in the end he beats us with full hand. This evening wasn't any different and soon Jack had won all the money.
"YES! The poker master got you again!" Jack jumped up and crossed his arms while grinning deviously. "Yup, now you have enough money from your winnings to pay from the hints I will give you," Flynn laughed while he wiped the coins to his bag. Jack sighed, "Yeah.. what information do you have?"
"Well.. Robin Hood told me that on Sundays there is money transfer from bank called Prince John which fools people and takes their money. Here is the information needed to plan the robbery," Flynn gave Jack the papers and he immediately gave them to me. "Hiccup does the thinking in here," Jack smiled.
Suddenly we heard the doorbell ringing and Jack went to door. "Who could it be at midnight.. Emma might wake up," Jack mumbled to himself while pulling the door open. My eyes widened when I saw the person. "W-white Blizzard?" Jack gasped and I pulled Flynn to hide with me behind the living room door.
"Is there someone with you," White Blizzard asked. "N-no," Jack said and I decided that it was our time to leave. I pushed Flynn out from the window and I left right after him.
POV Elsa
Jack is standing in front of me, his cheeks are red and he furiously stuffs his hands inside to his hoodie's pocket. "Why are you here?" He glares at me and turns around. "Uh, check up?" I say quickly and I pull his hoodie's end. He gasps and jumps back, "What?"
"This!" I say and pull his hoodie up. "Heck no!" He snaps and pulls his hoodie back down. "I need to check how the wound is healing," I lie to him and he rolls his eyes. "In my room then," he sighs and suggests me to follow.
In his room he pulls his hoodie off and sits on bed. "Well?" He says and pouts. I inhale deeply and go to him, his skin feels cool when I take the bandages off. "So... how does it look?" He whispers and I examine it. "Well.. It is alright, I can take the stitches out," I say to him.
"Fine.. but I doubt that you would come here for just to take out stitches?" He said and stared at me. "Uh.. well.. my sister," I whisper and I am blushing more. "Yeah?" He sounded curious and I lift my head up.
"She wants you to come to dinner tomorrow.. She thinks that I am together with Jackson Overland. So, would you please come? Until I can figure out a way to get her to believe that we 'broke up'," I sigh and Jack stares me for a moment without emotion. Then he starts to laugh and I punch him to his stomach, "Not funny! I will not be gentle when I remove your stitches if you don't stop this instant," I glared at him while he still chuckled.
"S-sorry, this is too amusing. Me dating you? Ha! Are you speaking of a nightmare?" He grins and I start to take off the stitches. "Uh.. but I guess that I could help you out since I kinda caused that situation," Jack whispers and I look at him into his eyes. "What's my girlfriend's name?" He smirks deviously and I gasp for air.
"NOT TELLING!" I gulped and removed rest of the stitches. "Fine then, Blizz," Jack hums while I took out the last stitches. "You're totally wrong if you think that you're better thief than I am," I said to him quickly and he laughed. "I am way better than you are Blizz, you will see," he sighed, "you will see me getting serious next time. Then nothing stops me."
Suddenly he goes quiet. "Uh.. listen..," he looks at me and his cheeks turn red. "Thanks for helping me out last time," he smiles and I glance at the clock. It is already 1am. "When shall I come to your sister's place tomorrow? What should I wear?" He grinned and started to burst out questions. "I need to know something about yourself so your sister won't suspect our relationship. What is your favorite color ---," rest of Jack's words muffled.
My lips were now tightly against his, he was holding his breath. His eyes got blurry and soon he closed them, his shaking hand went behind of my neck. I tried to back up to get lose, I just tried to make him shut up with something unexpected. Little did I expect that he would start kissing me back. He nipped my lower lip which caused an electricity kind of wave go through me. My legs went numb and I fell to bed with him.
When I fell our lips broke apart, we both were panting and looking each other into eyes. I stood up quickly and I brushed my hair away from my face. "W-what was that for?" Jack sat up on the bed again and his eyes tried not to look at me. "Ha! I managed to distract you!" My voice was awfully high. "You sure did," Jack chuckled until his expression became serious.
I glared at him, "I am still way better than you and much more better kisser." I slapped my hand over my mouth. Kisser? I freaking kissed him? Jack smirked, "You're good but not as good as me. My second kiss in my life and I already got a girl falling for me." Jack laughed and I turned red. He barely managed to dodge my slap which I aimed to his face.
He was holding my wrist and laughing, "Nice try Blizz." I shake his hand off from mine and I walk to his door. "Your wound is alright. See you tomorrow at 7pm at my sister's home. Don't be late and make up something to insult me with so I can 'break up' with you in front of her," I said while standing on the doorway. "Sure," he said and winked his eye.
I closed the door behind of me but then I remembered something. I opened the door quickly and said things really fast. "Just to let you know, my favorite song is 'Why don't you love me'--," I gave Jack an angry glare since he might shout out something funny on his mind. I sighed, "My favorite color is blue and.. we met in library where I helped you out since you were too stupid to find books." I stare at him and when I was almost out from the room he yelled after me, "You read?"
I stopped moving and after few moments I said quietly, "Yeah." He was silent for moment after until he finally spoke, "Cool." Then he laughs, "My favorite color is also blue and I like a lot of songs. See you tomorrow, I will break your heart." I slammed the door shut and I walked on the corridor angrily. The steps to downstairs I half run down.
On the car I just sat for a moment. My heart was beating in a strange way, the strong feeling towards him is like a pain. I really hate him and that mischievous smirk of his. I hate him and his brown and white hair. Everything in him is so.. so.. annoying. The image of him fills my mind and I hit my head with my fist, "Stop thinking of him Elsa! You're just messing up your head!" I groaned to myself.
BEEP . BEEP.
I got a message from Pitch. 'There is a job on Sunday.' I read the message. Ah, at least I have something else on my mind now. I drove back to home and Anna was already waiting for me. "You know that it is 2am and you should be sleeping?" I smiled to Anna who giggled. "Well you went to see your boyfriend, I was just curious to see if you're staying the night," Anna winked her eye and crossed her arms. My cheeks were burning up, "Uh.. of course I wouldn't stay."
Anna grinned deviously, "Why didn't you just call him?" I groaned, "I had umm.. his wallet so I wanted to give it back." Actually I didn't have his wallet, I just don't want to call him. He doesn't know anything else from me besides my secret identity, the place where I currently live and my sister. My name and other personal information is none of his business.
My sister was yawning, "Well. I will go to sleep now. You could figure out what I will bring from store and cook for our double date for dinner." Anna said while going to her bedroom. I sighed, now I even have to cook for that moron. Like he would even appreciate the effort. Hopefully he does something so bad that Anna will hate him and I can dump him. Well, dump him in Anna's mind since she is the only one who thinks that I am dating him.
