so now the world can never get me on my level (Hogwarts AU for

[The school was abuzz with gossip. People wondering how he'd done it, wondering if something was wrong with the cup or the headmaster for letting a teenager Hiccup's size into the tournament. He might have had a growth spurt over the summer that he'd spent in the muggle world with Jack, but he was still Hiccup. Even his fellow champions - a boy from Durmstrang named Dagur and a girl from Beauxbatons named Elsa - had looked at him oddly when he'd entered the room where the champions were being gathered for the rundown.
Hiccup's birthday was late February, meaning he was a year older than most of his peers in the sixth grade. Snotlout had already cornered him demanding how he'd stolen his moment of glory and a warm, heartfelt letter from his father saying how confused but proud he was of him had already sent Hiccup's mind reeling. He was sure that somewhere in the castle, students were placing bets on him being the first out of the first competition.
Not to mention the yule ball. Hiccup ran a hand through his hair as he tugged on his satchel, flashing a brief smile towards a girl wishing him good luck. He'd be expected to take a date, he couldn't just show up as a bachelor. He'd have to take Jack, even though he was sure neither of them were ready to come out of the closet, and in front of the school no less. A girl wasn't an option - he'd be entirely uncomfortable.
Giving a small sigh, he adjusted his satchel and continued on to the place he'd told Jack he would meet him at.]
