Jack

"What do you want?" I called out to Astrid as she began walking away, "For you to leave me alone," I nodded at her and she walked away. Hiccup got out of his seat and wandered off after her leaving Kerri and Phoenix and the others were just sat there staring at me wide-eyed. I sighed and stomped away the other direction out the lunch hall. I didn't know what I was feeling right now, hate, anger, relief, I wasn't sure with myself.

"Hey Jack!" I turn around to see Elsa coming down the hallway. "Oh hey Elsa," she places her hand on my shoulder and asks "Are you okay?" I just nod because the real reason is I'm not okay. I can't do this anymore. I can't take it. "Jack there's something wrong I can see it in your eyes," I glance at her and shake my head "No really I'm fine don't worry about me," I shrugged her hand off my shoulder because comfort was not what I needed right now.

"Hey Jack!" I turn around to see Roxy and Merida racing down the hall towards us. I knew what was coming and I didn't want to face it not now and not ever. I spun around quickly and ran away from all three of them. "JACK!!" I heard them all call in unison. I didn't turn back I kept going and going. I cut the corner and began to slow down my pace. I made it to my dorm and slammed the door shut. I jumped into the corner of my bed and broke down.

Tears began raining out my eyes. I clutched my pillow tightly and dug my head in deep. No one knows why I'm like this because they don't know the true story. I heard shouting down the hallway. It sounded like Elsa, Roxy and Merida but also other voices. I believe it was Hiccup, Astrid and Kerri. "It's your fault now he ran away from us because of you!" Oh great here we go again.

"Hey where you going?" I heard Elsa shout down the hall. That's when my door knocked. I ignored it. But it came again. I still ignored it. The door creaked open. "Jack..." They had this slight whisper to their voice. I peeked out through the pillow and looked toward the door to see Astrid standing in the doorway. "Oh hey," I whispered to her. I rubbed my eyes so she couldn't see that I was crying. I never cry so that would show I'm weak. Which I am not!

"Jack look I'm sorry if I upset you?" she said and came and sat on the other side of my bed. "Look you did the same to me and I cried but I didn't-," I cut her off "Astrid I'm not crying over that," she looked at me confused. "Oh then what Jack you can tell me I am a very good secret keeper," she told me. I gave her a weak smile. "You wouldn't understand?" she sighed but wrapped her arms around me and hugged me in close.

"Why are you doing this?" I cried into her shoulder. "Because I forgive you," she whispered and ran her fingers through my hair to calm me down. I started to calm down and rest my body against her. "Jack just talk to me whenever okay," I sniffled and just nodded. I can't tell her because she can never know. I made a promise and I intend to keep that promise no matter what it takes. I have no family so I need to make this count and make things right.

Even if that does mean I need to take sacrifices. Even if they are the wrong choice.

I made this a special chapter so you can see another plot in the story hope you enjoyed.
