Berk was completely dark, the entire village was asleep and the only notable sounds were the snores Vikings and the squawk of the nocturnal dragons. The newly reconstructed Great Hall was finally quieting down as men and women exited after a long, tedious meeting that lasted far too long. I was stirred from a deep sleep by Hiccups body melting onto mine. I nuzzled his neck, sighing in deep content. "What took you so long?" the tip of my nose traces his collar bone followed by the tip of my tongue.
"Sorry," Hiccup moaned under his breathe "Vikings are unbelievably stubborn." I smiled lazily and knotting my fingers into the small braids at his neck. His knee nudged between my legs, baring most of his weight down onto me, he had thrown off most of his shirt at some point before entering the bed, and his body heat seeped through the thin fabric of my camisole. My breasts pressed into him so tightly he could probably count the beats of my heart.
"It's a good thing you're not one." A dazed chuckle left him, making my fringe and eyelashes flutter. His voice, although saturated with sleep, dropped low and gruff.
"Then what am I?" His hands dug into my waist and under my shoulder blade up to cradle my neck. I lightly sucked at the pressure point on his shoulder with such contentment I ached.
"Hiccup." And I bit down just hard enough to elicit a hiss and bruise. "Mine." I marked him, laving my tongue over the sensitive skin before biting down again, drunk on my own need. Hiccup lowered his mouth to the center of my neck, scraping his teeth along it, teasing me with his capability to leave his mark. Just as the pressure mounted his tongue took precedence and he sucked the spot harshly. He never bit me, never left a mark.
"Mine" He growled, teasing with his teach again. I arched up into him so that every centimeter between us was closed, chest to chest, hips to hips. I hummed in agreement with him, it was our claim to one another. Hiccups body settled over me with delicious pressure and heat, I drowned in him like it was the sweetest release. Sleep was taking control again even as I clung to this, hooking my knee around his leg that pressed into my thigh. I fell asleep to his hum, a tune he had started singing to me within the past few months. Every once in a while a word would be dropped
"If you hmm hmm your heart." Hiccup drowsily trailed off. I don't know when I fell asleep, but no sleep was sweeter than this.
