34 Present Meets the Past
POV Hiccup
Gosh, the phone is ringing and it's just 7am. My hand reaches to my bedside table and I get hold of my phone that's ringing the tune from Alien movie.
It's Emma's number so I decided to respond. "Morning," I mumbled and finished with a yawn. "Sorry to call you this early but I'm worried and since you made up with my brother.. Could we meet? Grab ice cream or something like that?" She spoke and I could hear the worry in her voice.
I rubbed my temples, "Yeah. Just give me two hours and I will come and get you. Coffee would be good at this hour?" I laughed.
"Sorry," Emma said again.
"Hey, no worries. I would have gotten up soon anyway," I said and started to sit.
"Okay, see you soon," she laughed a bit and I smiled. "Yup, see ya Ems," I said and we ended up the call.
I stretched out and then sent a good morning message to Merida. I grinned when I read her response, 'It's freaking 7:30am?!?! ... Anyway, good morning to you too and when the night comes, be sure that you're home when I come to wish you good night. -Merida.'
"Geez Mer," I muttered and my cheeks flushed. I typed back, 'Yup. See you in the evening, Hulk. Hiccs.'
My phone beeped and I got a response, 'You're dead.'
It made me laugh and I typed back before going to shower. 'Normally kisses won't kill ;P.'
'Haha -_-'.'That response of hers was too much and I laughed while going to shower.
I got dressed and checked my emails. Nothing new and I glance at the time. I really need to go and get Emma.
POV Emma
The beat of the music has always made me feel like I could see again. It's like every sound is a vibrant color, going around me and giving me joy. Again I'm alone in my home. Jack is hanging a lot with that radio channel's Toothiana.
I sigh and try to relax while listening to music. Suddenly door bell rang and I look for the remote control in my lap. When I found it my fingers are touching the surface, first I look for the button that is high in the right corner. Then I slide my finger to left and when it touches the fourth button I move my finger up. I press the button and the music stops.
I turn my chair around and I roll forward. I know this house really well, each crack and creek in every room, from the smell of roses I know that the doorway is just couple rolls of my wheels away. We have roses near the doorway of our living room.
The cold breeze in my skin tells me that the front door is close me, the wind gets slightly inside from the door and I feel it. The handle is about in the same height as my face and I find it quickly after I have found where the trims are of the doorway.
I unlock the door and I hear how someone shifts their bodys balance. "Hello Hiccs," I said before he could speak. "Ah, you know that it's me always," he says as he walks in when I rolled backwards.
"Well you said that you would be here right about now," I smiled and press my wrist watch. It tells me the time, '8:55am.' Then I laughed, "And your steps have their own ring to it." I heard him chuckle.
"You ready to go?" Hiccup asks and I hear him walking to closet. "Sure," I said and I hear the sound of jackets brushing against each other and then I feel the softness on my shoulders. I lift my hands and Hiccup helps me put on my coat.
"Let me push you," he says and takes my wheelchair's handles. "Would you give my bag? It's in--," I started. "On the table," Hiccup laughs and I feel pressure in my lap when he places the bag on there.
"Thank you ," I said. He pushes me towards the van and helps me inside. He locks my wheelchair on place and goes to driver seat. I hear the humming of computers, I still wonder why they have computers inside a van.
"So how are you with Peter?" Hiccup asks when he starts up the car. "We're great, he is really sweet. I almost feel like I can do anything with him if I believe enough. Like fly," I chuckled and I heard Hiccup laughing.
"That's sweet. I'm happy for you Ems," he tells me and we're leaving the drive way. He puts on some music and I listen to the melody and lyrics.
"Hiccup," I started out and then he drove to a yard and stopped the car. "Yeah, I know that you wanted to speak of something. Just let me get you out first and lets go to cafeteria," he says and I hear him opening up the van door and jumping out.
Soon the sliding door opens up and I hear Hiccup climbing in. He unlocks the ropes and then goes to back of the van. He opens up the backdoor and uses the lift to get me out.
"So what' troubling your pretty head?" Hiccup says gently and get's us inside the cafeteria.
"My brother," I said quietly.
"Well, that's not new. He gives trouble to everyone," Hiccup laughed. He pushed me against a table and I feel the wooden edges of the table against my hands. "What's the problem?" Hiccup asked.
Soon I heard quick steps of a waitress wearing high heels. She was scribbling something to her notebook. I mouthed later to Hiccup and then the waitress came to us.
"Could I get you anything?" The waitress asked and I ordered some hot chocolate and a croissant. Hiccup decided to have a coffee and sandwich.
"Now then, what's on your mind?" Hiccup asked. I sighed deeply and I play with my fingers.
"So, I think that Jack is in love," I sighed. Hiccup chuckled and I felt a bit annoyed, "Yeah? What's the harm on that?"
"With the Toothiana from radio," I groaned.
"Mmm.. You're wrong with that one," Hiccup said quietly and my heart skipped a beat.
"HE has other girl? Again?" I gulped. This isn't the Jack that I know.
"Nope, the one he has always loved. He is doing some work with Toothiana. You could say that.. umm.. some sort of acting stuff," Hiccup laughed nervously.
"Like hidden camera?" I asked.
"Uh, yeah, something like that," Hiccup said nervously.
"What's up with that someone he has always loved thing?" I questioned.
Hiccup coughed a bit since he had taken a sip of the mug that the waitress brought to him couple minutes ago.
"H-he is with Elsa again, in secret so don't tell him that you know. Please?" Hiccup pleaded. I bit my lower lip and I reached for my hot chocolate.
"Bit to your left," Hiccup said like it was nothing. Then I found the mug and my hand runs on the surface of the mug, I dip my finger into the drink and it was cool enough. Then I drink some.
"Please?" Hiccup pleaded again and I sighed. "Okay but I wish that he stops that stupid act soon, it's making me annoyed and some people around town," I told to him and he immediately sighed his relief.
"I know but it's still a bit difficult," Hiccup told me.
"Sometimes I think that you two hide something from me," I spoke to Hiccup.
"Haha, that's easy since your blind. You have no idea what kind of stuff is in Jack's bedroom," Hiccup laughed warmly.
I gasped, "That's gross Hiccup!"
"I know right," he chuckled and we both laughed. We spoke about random stuff afterwards. Well mostly I was interrogating him about his relationship with Merida and he returned the favor.
When we finished eating I smiled. "What's so nice?" Hiccup laughed. "It's nice having some time with you since you're not avoiding me because of my brother," I told him and I leaned to my hands.
"Umm.. I never stopped being your friend silly," Hiccup laughed and sounded bit insulted. "I know," I told him.
POV Elsa
Last night was my second night in my own apartment. I decided to let Anna live with her new husband at peace. It just went too awkward around the apartment in the past few months anyway.
It's already evening and I know that Jack will be checking out my latest message at the art gallery soon. We have been throwing ideas of how we could be together again. They are hilarious at some points.
The feeling is almost funny when you realize that the thing that comforts you most is when you dress yourself on your boyfriends old hoodie, pull your legs against your chest and read a book that you both would enjoy while you nest on the couch. Oh, and eat ice cream. Many jars filled with chocolate ice cream. Of course some love songs about missing someone and a picture of him make you feel even more lonely.
I placed the third empty jar of Ben and Jerry's Phish Food ice cream to the floor. I'll clean up later. I'm reading the book called "the Hobbit" and now I place it on the table. I decide to have a small break. I lean back and close my eyes and pull the hood over my head. I hum to myself. "It still smells like you," I whispered.
Then my phone beeped and I rose up and went to get it from the kitchen. My apartment is small, it has only a small kitchen where there's room for only small breakfast table for two. The bedroom has room for double bed and bedside tables and for a small wardrobe. My living room has three bookshelves filled with books, then there's the couch, coffee table and television. My bathroom has a shower and toilet, it's a bit crowded but I can handle it.
I see that the message was from Pitch. "So you have a job for me, after all this time," I said bitterly and I typed a response that I would be there soon. Hopefully I can get some info about their future actions and we can catch them all. Now I should get ready as fast as I can.
Quickly I went to change my clothes. I had already got my pants off and I was about to pull the hoodie off when I noticed the picture of Jack on my bedside table. My cheeks blushed and I turned the picture away from me. The intense look of his is making my heart beat faster and I just can't get undressed in front of a picture. He is making me go crazy even though he is not here.
When I was dressed I folded the hoodie on top of my bed and turned off the lights. I used public traffic to get to Pitch's relocated hideout. He has been really tense lately but honestly if it wouldn't be like that I would think him more than a stupid. He would be a total moron.
Punzie is spending some time with her boyfriend. She has been rebelling against Gothel for some time which is great. She told me that Flynn took her to see the lights which she has been talking of for years.
The feeling that I got when I arrived to the hideout was odd, as if something is wrong. "Hello?" I called when I moved forward in the abandoned dog food factory.
"Nice that you arrived honey," Pitch said and I see how the lights turn on. "Of course, you haven't contacted me in a while. I figured that you have a job for me?" I tried to sound as brave as I could, like nothing is wrong.
I notice how two of his loyal followers are standing behind of me. There's Scar and Tai Lung. I don't know which I'm scared more. Scar who has a scar over his left eye, he has long brown hair and green eyes. He is slender and not so powerful but his intelligence gets most of people follow him. His name, Scar, doesn't come from his own scar but from the knuckles that have lion claws. He uses them to torture people.
And Tai Lung? Well he isn't any nicer type of person, he is bald but he wears snow leopard printed clothes. He is muscular and the master of Kung Fu. He can kill you with one hit.
"Pitch?" I questioned. He walks closer to me and grabs my wrist. "Did you miss me hon?" He grins and smells my hair. I'm holding my breath and try to keep calm.
"Of course," I said blankly. "So you don't mind if I?" He hums and I feel how he is pushing his hand inside my shirt. "You're moving too soon, I'm not ready to take that step," I said and pushed his hand away.
He chuckles and starts to walk around me. "Are you sure?" He shouts to me and I flinched.
"Come here Yzma," Pitch ordered and I narrowed my eyebrows. Then I see a familiar looking woman coming towards us from shadows.
"Do I know you from somewhere?" I whispered and then I remembered. "Wait! Y-you were in Agraba?" I gulped. The woman laughs and Pitch places his hand on the womans shoulder.
"Yes, she is our connection in that place. Don't you remember? She told me interesting things about your little visit to Agraba," Pitch grins deviously.
"N-no," I whispered and took a step back. I wanted to flee. Then I bumped into Tai Lung and he grabbed me from my shoulders.
"W-what's the meaning of this," I whispered.
"You've been naughty," Pitch laughed and patted my cheek.
"My Yzma here was ordered to follow you around. Then drug you and that annoying Snowflake Burglar, Jack, then torture him but.. it started being interesting and I found out that there might be something better to use to hurt him," Pitch chuckled.
"Show it to her," Pitch hissed to Yzma who nodded and pulled out few pictures. She handed them to me.
"Y-you followed us," I whispered. I saw pictures of Jack and me, going into hotel. My cheeks blushed when I saw some more pictures.
"Lies, all lies of you not being ready," Pitch shouted as he grabbed the pictures from my hand. I yelped because of the sudden reaction of his. The last picture which I saw was one where Jack was embracing me in the hotel room from behind, opening up my dress and kissing my neck.
I breathed heavily and clenched my hands into fists. "I just like him more than you," I hissed to Pitch. " I wish that you would be gone forever!" I yelled.
Pitch forces me against him and kisses my neck. I gasped and then kicked him into his groin. Scar and Tai Lung chuckled a bit as Pitch whimpered.
"You'll regret that," Pitch said coldly and snapped his fingers. I feel how Tai Lung and Scar grab me. "You drugged us! How dare you!" I cried. Now I know why I can't remember anything from the rest of that night. Yzma, I remember her now. I've seen a couple of pictures of her. She works in the satellite group of the Nightmares in Agraba. She's specialized in poisons, drugs and other nasty stuff.
Pitch is breathing in deeply, "You know what will hurt that worthless piece of shit more? " He growled.
"What? Don't you dare touch him or--," I screamed to him and I tried to get loose.
"Him? Oh no.. hurting you hurts him the most," Pitch laughed and my eyes widen.
"Take her and do whatever you please but.. don't end it too short, have some fun like someone would say," Pitch chuckled and I the thugs are dragging me away.
"No! Let me go! Let me go!" I shouted and tried to get loose. They were too strong but I managed to kick Scar when we went into yard area.
"Agh! You'll regret that!" Scar shouted and nodded Tai Lung. Tai Lung throws me to ground and then he kicks me,it hits directly to my head and I lose my consciousness.
A/N
How was the chappie my dear readers? I sure got some shivers going up on my spine.
Just to let you know. The character of Emma of this book means a lot to me. One of my closest friends is on a wheelchair and I'm used to help her out in various stuff. It's like I'm Hiccup sometimes and Ems is her.
And the vision loss of Emma? Well I have a poor sight, I'm not blind but I can't see without glasses. It's annoying when you have to touch things to find out stuff. Like one time I was at a hotel and I placed my glasses on a dark table. Well.. I couldn't find them after shower, the table was huge and I was like Velma from Scooby Doo when I used my hands to search the table.. and then they fell to floor and I had to continue my search from dark floor *thumbs up*.
GUESS WHAT!
I have my OTP hanging in my Christmas tree! *dances*
