When hiccup got closer to the group the chatter felt more or less silent as the kid stopped speaking to the teen in order to look at the dragon rider. To hiccup surprise the stranger made no move to hide when he saw him.
"-Okay kid, jigs up. What's happening here? he started meanwhile Toothless got closer to the group.
-Nothiiiiing... said a brunette denying as always, like they always did when he came. Hiccup gave her an unimpressed look before continuing.
-Your new friend isn't even hiding. I know your secret no need to lie. How and when did this start?" He asked will pointing at the teen who wasn't paying any attention to him but had started trowing snowball playfully at toothless.
The kids looked at him with big surprised eye. Okay hiccup get it that no one found out about it until now but the couldn't be that surprise that he could see a boy that isn't even hiding. They looked at each other then at him still pointing in the direction of the teen. Who seemed to realise something wasn't right since he stopped playing with the dragon and was now looking at him. Hiccup sighted, this was going to be long.
"- Hey, no one is in trouble, but i espect an explenation. Your parent wont be happy when they find out you have been hanging out with a stranger. " he said with a stern look. If it continued like this he was just going to take the young boy to warm up before asking for a correct explenation. Like how the boy manage to get to the island without being noticed by anyone or if he was alone and more than anything how the hell was he still standing will behing clearly unwell because of the cold.
Then it was as if something switch on withing the children's brain because one of them started running to the teen with an ecstatic smile screaming: "Jack, Jack, he can see you!"
Hiccup didn't understand what that was about but now he was surrounded the kids who had huge smile while the teen (also surrounded) had a strange look on his face.
(PS: here i imagine that this story happend somewhere before the secound movie, and Jack is or at least look younger than hiccup. I wont ship them and if i can i will had merinda and rapunzel later on. I also want to say that because eglish is not my first language a lot of the name expecially from the httyd movies are different wich make the writting somewhat difficult)
