Why Me? (Older Hiccup and Reader)

Chapter 78

Your POV

On my way home I saw Heather with that guy from the little dance. Looks like she finally took my advice and talked to him. I smiled at the scene when I also saw Snoutlout with the girl he danced with as well. I'm glad they actually found someone. I wonder when Tuff will find someone though. 

As I'm walking, Helga stops me.

"Oh, (y/n). I have something for you." She says. I walk over with curiosity.

"Here, Val told me you wasn't you know......eating," She whispered the last part. Yeah, I got really depressed I didn't eat. I r really should eat more.

"So I made you this." She says holding out one of her delicious cakes. And it was (favorite cake flavor). 

"Oh, thank you Helga." I say smiling to her. She smiles back at me and tells me to run off back home to get some rest and eat the cake. I walk home with the cake in my hands. Helga had put it in a nice wooden box so pests won't get to it. 

When I reach my home I see that (d/n) beat me too it. I set the cake on the table and went up to my room. I took off all my armor and changed into some more comfortable. Out of the corner of my eye I see a note on the table along with my Inferno. I though I had lost it when I left it on that Berserker ship while trying to help Hiccup. I walk over and pick up the note for it to read;

Dear (y/n), 

I found this on the commanding Berserker ship. I knew you hadn't done the adjustments you need just yet, so I done them for you. 

Hope your alright lassy. Hiccup is going to need someone like you by his side.

-Gobber

I'll have to thank him when I see him. I pick up the sword to see it's a bit lighter than usual, but more manageable for a person my size. The crystal blade attached was dealt with care and sharpened. 

I set the sword back down and head off to my bed. The moment my head hit the pillow, I'm out. 

Hiccup's POV

Mom is currently changing my bandages. She said I might be able to walk around for a bit, but not to do anything to drastic. I can't put on my usual armor, so I just have to go out with my normal shirt nd pants with a oversized fur cloak. Dagur had to attack at the worst possible time, cause it's just a month before Snoggle Tog and Berk is behind on decorations, food, and Trader Johann is a week late for trading. Heather had told me he got caught up in his last village.

Mom helped me put the cloak on as Toothless let me lean up against him for support. 

As we walk out of the house, a sudden wind hits me and causes me to shivers and hold the cloak tighter against my body with my free hand. 

As I walk by, I'm greeted with many 'hellos' and 'glad your feeling better' and lots of others. 

As I continue to watch, I see the village working faster than usual to get everything ready for Snoggle Tog. 

"No, (y/n) said to put all the food in the grand hall and to preserve the meats in salt and sugar!" I hear a villager say.

'(y/n) said what?' 

"Snoutlout you've got it all wrong! (y/n) said to put those decorations in the grand hall, not out here!" I hear Astrid shout.

'Was (y/n) taking over the village while I was unconscious?' 

Me and Toothless made our way to Gobber's. 

"Ah, Hiccup, glad your out n' bout." Goober greets.

"Thanks Gobber. Hey, has (y/n) been taking care of the village while I was unconscious?" I ask.

"Oh, yea, with the help of your mother of course, but I feel that your mother let her make most of the decisions. Although I'm not complaining. You've got yourself a nice lass there lad." Goober states. 

'So she was taking care of the village.' 

"Thank you Gobber." I say. I exit his shop and just continue to walk around the village. 

As we're walking I see (d/n) bounding over to us. 

"Hey there (d/n). Is (y/n) resting like I told her?"

She nods her head and starts to lick Toothless on the side of his face. 

Well, at least she's resting. I hope she's eating too. 

She really worries me when she does things like this. 

TIME SKIP

After walking around the village, I headed back home and retreated back to my bedroom. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a note on my desk. I slowly make my way over there to find it to read;

Hiccup, 

While you was unconscious, just a few moments before you woke up, I found a weird journal hidden in your floor board. It had the Haddock insignia on it, so I'll let you look into it. 

-Love, (y/n).

I did what the little map she had drawn on the map asked and retrieved the so called journal. It looked generations old, and indeed have the Haddock insignia on the front of it.

What exactly did you find (y/n)?
