Chapter 1.

(Skip to after Astrid and Hiccup's romantic flight)

The note was on his desk, he was ready to go, to leave berk. Forever. When he got to the cove he found toothless awake, a dark figure next to him.

"W-w-what are you doing here?" he asked, startled.

"Oh hiccup, I just knew you'd do this, that and I chose a convenient time to get a glass of water, so what are you doing," she said.

He sighed, "Isn't it obvious, Astrid? I'm running away with toothless."

"Oh no you're not," she said.

"look Astrid, I know what you're thinking, how can I just back down, cower and run away, guess what Astrid, I'm not brave, I just know that as soon as I see that dragon I'm gonna freeze, I'll probably look into his eyes, and then I just won't be able to do it, trust me, it's better this way,"

"I guess, but you're still not going," he looked ready to argue, but she quickly cut in, "without me," she finished.

"what, Astrid that's crazy, that's insane, besides it'll be too dangerous, no, this is something we," he gestured to toothless, "need to do alone."

"seriously, you're lecturing me about danger, besides, if I do stay I'll have to kill the monstrous nightmare, and I'm sorry hiccup, but I can't do that."

"urrgh, fine, but you're going to need supplies too, and may I ask what you're parents will think of this,"

"I wrote a note and packed supplies," she said gesturing towards her rucksack, "I'll be fine."

He sighed, "hop on," he said reluctantly.

She smiled triumphantly.

Eventually after a 4 hour flight, they saw a beautiful island surrounded by rocks, when they got there they found it uninhabited, except for the animals. There were sheep and other animals, they also saw a few dragons, 6 nadders, 4 monstrous nightmares and a few others. Upon landing, the dragons all rushed forward to greet hiccup.

"let me guess, you've already been here, planned it, and trained the dragons here," she said.

He smiled and nodded. "Astrid, this is your dragon," he said pointing out a beautiful blue nadder.

"she's beautiful, hmm I think I'll call her Stormfly," said Astrid

hiccup then showed her a small house he'd made, it had a living room, a kitchen, an outhouse and a bedroom.

"it's all so amazing, so you," she said to hiccup.

"umm thanks," he said, a bit of red reaching his cheeks, causing her to giggle.

They went to the bedroom, there was only one bed, this caused both of them to blush slightly.

"um, you take the bed, I can just sleep in toothless' wings," he said, indicating the large reptile sleeping on the slab of rock opposite the bed, wings outstretched as if waiting for him, "I'll just make a new room tomorrow."

"umm, okay, umm thanks hiccup," she said.

Then she leaned over, unexpectedly and kissed him on the lips, it lasted for about a minute, then they broke away, with very red cheeks.

"umm, yeah so we should get to sleep," he said, trying desperately to make the situation less awkward.

"yeah, yeah sounds good," she mumbled, and they went to sleep.

Back on berk.

It had been 8 hours since the teens left, everyone in the village woke, including the teen's parents. As the went to check on their kids, the both noticed notes. Hiccup's read:

Dear dad,

I am sorry to inform that I have run away. I must find my own way for I cannot slay an innocent beast, and I am proud to say that, for if I could've I would've killed toothless, my best friend and night fury, a long time ago when the mangler (my bola cannon) caught him. While spending time with toothless I realized my device left him flightless, me returning his ability to fly through the tail fin design I made him is what jumpstarted our friendship. I have learned over time that dragons are not the demons we think they are, we don't have to kill them, we can train them. During our friendship toothless showed me the way, he re-lit my fire and gave me a new purpose.

farewell,

hiccup

Astrid's note read:

Dear mother an father,

I am sorry to say I have run away. I shall be leaving either with hiccup, or in the unlikely chance he wins a fight and says I cannot come, a dragon. Yesterday, after training, I followed hiccup to the cove and upon discovering toothless(his dragon) I gave him a chance to explain. He took me on a flight, I fell in love with him and realized killing dragons is wrong, I cannot do it.

Goodbye,

Astrid.

Astrid's parents met Stoick and Gobber in the great hall, after a heated conversation they agreed that they would find the two and deal with them the way all traitors were dealt with. Blood eagle. Gobber felt really scared when he heard those words, hiccup was like a son to him and he did not want to see him blood eagled no matter what, he also had a slight soft spot for Astrid, since she was hiccup's crush and it turned out she loved him too, so he did not want to see her blood eagled either, and what about the night fury, hiccup's best friend, the one who was there for him when no one else was, he couldn't bare to see a creature so caring with it's head chopped off. But for now he was going to have to hide his feelings, ' besides' he thought, 'if hiccup learned how to train dragons and trained more than one of them the chances of him being caught are unlikely'. And that relieved him, but now he was also going to have to find a new apprentice, and 1st place student.

It was announced at breakfast what the two had done. Snotlout was beside himself with fury, he was going to find them, kidnap Astrid, have her fall in love with him, then kill hiccup.

Back on the island.

The two had just woken up, and had breakfast, hiccup was working on a new room. At around 3pm he told Astrid he was heading over to the forge to work on some things.

"you built a forge?" she asked.

"yeah," he said.

Astrid smiled, she couldn't help it hiccup was just sooo cute, she was falling in love.

The next day they decided to go to the beach, to cool off some nerves. When they got there hiccup was in his trunks and Astrid was in her swimming costume. She couldn't help but notice the tiny bit's of muscle hiccup had, they made him look less of a fishbone and more of a really cute figure, they suited him so well. They dived in and started swimming, hiccup was looking a bit sad.

"hey hiccup, why are you sad," Astrid asked when they got out.

"I don't know," he murmured.

"hiccup, please, you can tell me anything," she said looking into his eyes.

He sighed, "it's just the dragon's, I wish I could help them, but I don't know how."

"oh please, I know you, you totally have a plan," Astrid said putting her arms around her.

"well, I was thinking," he sighed, "maybe if toothless and I were to go to dragon island we could defeat the queen."

"all on your own, hiccup are you sure about this?"

"trust me we'll be fine, I promise."

"okay, fine, but do know that if you die, I will personally bring you back to life and kill you myself" she sighed defeated.

"trust me, I give you full permission."

"so what's the plan?"

"I made a catapult and a boat, if we take them to the island we could lure the queen out, toothless and I can take it from there, but first…"

"what?"

"I think it's time we take our dragon's out flying."

"right on,"

so they saddled up their dragons and took them out. Astrid's heart nearly stopped on a few of hiccup and toothless' tricks, but all in all it was pretty fun, and as it turned out Astrid was a pretty good flier. They got home, had dinner and went to bed.

The next day…

On berk.

Stoick, Glenda and Sven met at the docks. Today they were setting sail with a group of hooligan warriors, all set out for revenge against two of the most promising dragon fighters betrayed the village and sided with the great fire breathing reptiles. The teens had finished dragon training and were aiding the adults in finding the two teens and showing them what happened to traitors on berk. Just then they spotted the sail of a ship a good 50-60 miles ahead of ahead of them, Stoick took out a spyglass that Gobber( who was staying behind in case of attacks) had forged from hiccup's designs, of course Stoick did not know that. Recognizing it as a foreign sail not belonging to any island he knew of he looked down, there were four figures and what looked like weapons sailing towards the fog, he noticed two of the shapes were dragons, one black and one blue, and two of the shapes were humans, one with what looked like blonde hair, and one with what looked like auburn hair. Realizing immediately what this was he told the rest of the crew and they set sail after them.

On hiccup's ship. Hiccups pov.

We were a few minutes sailing distance from dragon island. Crash, we landed. We got off and put the catapults in position, then we fired. We hit, and hit till the mountain cracked open. In a hurry all the dragons flew away as fast as possible, then. Thud. Thud. The queen. She was even bigger than I imagined, at least 2 berks tall and 1 berk wide. I got on toothless and we started the battle, taking it to the sky, in the clouds, where she couldn't see, we blasted at her wings, trying to weaken them, but she sent fire everywhere, we did a dive to the island, she was on our tail, she opened her mouth, we turned around and shot fire, setting the gasses alight inside of her, she exploded, the last thing I remember was trying to get out of the inferno, a bulldozer-like tail hitting me, then darkness.

The battle. Astrid's pov.

I watched as the queen exploded, it was almost too good to be true, but then I heard a scream, I saw hiccup falling into the fire. I dropped.

The battle toothless' point of view.

We were almost there, it was too cruel. Immediately I felt something was wrong, I turned around and saw hiccup falling, I flew as fast as my wings could carry me, then clasp, I had him, I closed my wings encasing every part of him. It was going to be alright.

Viewers pov.

Astrid made her way to toothless, sobbing. Where is he she thought as she fell by the night fury, crying so hard it was a wonder she was still alive, then. Toothless opened his wings and there was hiccup. In a coma but alive, completely unhurt except for a few gashes across his face, but hey, it's not like he was missing a limb right? She took him from toothless' wing and held him close, sobbing on him, the night fury sheltered them under his wing, stormfly came in, it was a shame to see her rider so sad and the one who trained her look so dead, even though she knew he was just in a coma, she could hear his faint heartbeat. But then.

"SQUACK!" screeched stormfly as the hooligan boats were about to dock.

Astrid pulled her head away and ran to the boat at the other side of the island as Stoick, Glenda and Sven got off board.

"there!" yelled Stoick as he watched the four disappear behind the mountain.

The four jumped on the boat and set sail, Astrid desperately working the oars, but it was no use, the hooligans had numbers, it was easier for them. Astrid grabbed hiccup and jumped on stormfly, toothless started gliding along the water, Astrid, hiccup and stormfly took off just in time to hear a crash. Astrid turned around and saw Stoick, Glenda and Sven yelling at them. Then they noticed a limp hiccup in Astrid's arms.

Snotlout yelled out to her, "I will find you, my love, I shall break the curse that abomination has put on you, see he is dead, if you stay with me you'll at least have someone who can fight, come back my love," he said the dead part with joy.

"never Snotlout, I'm under no curse, I love hiccup and I will till the day I die, he is not dead, and when he wakes up, beautiful as ever, I fully intend on telling him that and spending the rest of my life with him," yelled a furious Astrid.

The people who heard gasped in shock, most had believed that hiccup had either forged her handwriting and kidnapped her, or threatened to kill her if she had not written it, and by most I mean everyone except Stoick, Glenda, Sven and Gobber, but when Astrid revealed she had done it of her own accord they all knew that she was as much a traitor as him. A dumb-founded Snotlout stood on the deck of hiccups' ship, MURDER was his thought towards hiccup, REVENGE was his thought towards Astrid, he was going to find them, kill him, and mate her, and those were his final thought's as the company of 4 disappeared through the clouds.

Back on the island.

Astrid lay hiccup down, she looked him over, some parts of his clothing were red, she removed his shirt and pants, after bandaging any injuries she could find, she turned him over and bandaged those injuries. It was nothing too critical, like a severed limb, but there were a few deep gashes and patches from where skin had blown off during the explosion. When she was done she placed a cover over him, toothless came to check up on them, when she saw him she fell on him crying. He crooned, doing his best to comfort him. During the week he was unconscious she barely got any sleep, refusing to leave his side, wanting to be there always to tend wounds, feed him(swallowing is a reflex), be there when he woke up, give him sponge baths (respectful of his privacy so don't get any ideas :P) and so on. At last as a week had passed she thought she heard something that sounded rather like 'Astrid'. At first she thought it was her lack of sleep finally getting the better of her, but then. She felt her hand(clutching hiccup's) move. She looked up and saw him sitting. Wow she thought I must be dreaming.

"hiccup?" she said getting up

"Astrid?"

"oh hiccup," she sobbed going down and hugging him tightly, burying her tear-stained face into his shoulder.

"shhh, shhh, don't cry I'm here," he whispered trying to soothe her.

She jumped on him in tight embrace, then slipped under the covers, unwilling to let go, and kissed him deeply, making him blush.

"umm, Astrid," he said nervously

"Mmmmhhhhhmmmm,"

"I'm naked,"

"and?"

"and, I'm naked"

"so, I saw you when I was healing you,"

"but-"

"look hiccup, would this make you feel better?" she asked removing her clothing then lying back down to a furiously flushing hiccup and cuddling him.

"Astrid, we can't we're not even married yet," he tried.

"hiccup, we're living together, alone, on a deserted island, I don't think we need to be married," she said rolling her eyes as she lay on top spreading her legs.

"fine," hiccup sighed knowing when he was losing, and giving into his feelings as she kissed him again, sliding her tongue out of her mouth and gaining access to his, their tongues battling for dominance.

He traced along her body with his hands as she ran her fingers through his hair, making him moan. She started rubbing her self on him, increasing his erection, then got up, grabbed his shaft, and sat on him, the two screamed. But the pain soon died away and was replaced by pleasure, she beckoned for him to move, he started bucking into her, causing them to both moan in pleasure. She leaned forward, her arms on either side of his head for support. He started licking at her nipples, causing her to moan even more, this was it she had reached her climax, she moaned his name and came, and fell on him, this triggered his climax, he moaned and came.

"sorry," he said

"about what?"

"about that," he gestured to the mess

"what's to be sorry about?, I was hoping for this"

"you were?"

"yeah, it's like two weeks till my period,"

"WHAT!"

"relax,"

"how can I, I could've gotten you pregnant,"

"so?"

"what do you mean so?"

"hiccup, if there is ANYONE I want to carry's baby, it's yours, no, ours, I've been in love with you since I was six,"

"wait, what?"

"ever since I was six I couldn't stop thinking about you, I'd have dreams where it was just me and you, and we were laughing, I put those down as friendly dreams cause that's what they were, then your mom died and you sort of isolated yourself, but the dreams continued, I started seeing us together a lot, kissing, cuddling, things like that, but by the time I was 13 the dreams got a little more intimate….."

"wait, you were in love with me,"

"yeah," she said flicking his head playfully, "why do you think I always asked you to fix, or sharpen my sword, you always looked so cute in the forge, or why I never talked to you, I always got kinda tongue-tied," she was playing with his hair.

"why me?"

"cause, your: cute, funny, smart and your own person," she said snuggling into his arm, her arm wrapped over his chest, she gave a yawn.

She fell asleep, he kissed her on her forehead, then so did he.

if you're wondering y hiccups leg isn't missing, we'll think about it. She's alone with hiccup and has to worry about his coma. Isn't that enough. To add the pressure of a missing leg to their lives is too cruel, and I couldn't do that to them
