Chapter 2.

On the island.

Hiccup woke up, Astrid's head was snuggling against his chest, it had been her first proper sleep in a week. He was suddenly reminded of last night, he felt a smile creep over his face. He tried to get up without waking her, but just as he got her head off his chest and gently placed it on a pillow, she yawned. She opened her eye's.

"morning," she smiled, kissing him on the lips.

"morning," he smiled, kissing her on the forehead before getting up, and slipping on his pants.

Astrid watched him with a goofy smile, relieved were both to know they could be themselves with each other. They went to the kitchen, where hiccup made them breakfast. They went out to the fields (when wondering where they get stuff remember I said hiccup had planned to run away since he and toothless had their first flight) and plucked any ripe items to take back and put in their pantry. When they got back they made some bread together, having a little fun( food fight) making it, then had lunch. Afterwards they went to see their dragons, both of which knew about the previous night's incident, having done a little spying with the other dragons, for all of the island's dragon's had hoped for hiccup and Astrid to be together to raise a little island where people and dragons coexisted in peace.

"hey bud," said hiccup, as their dragons' sniffed him and her carefully, the two blushed. Did their dragons' know? They took a flight to a hill and went dragon-sledding. Everything was fine till hiccup noticed an avalanche behind them, he yelled to her and she flew, but….. as hiccup tried to work the gears, he realized they were frozen.

"hiccup, what are you doing?, we need to get out of here!" she screamed, watching hiccup climb onto toothless' tail and fiddle with his prosthetic, but then she realized.

She and stormfly raced over to hiccup, one hand on toothless' tail, the other hand holding Astrid's hand. They reached a crevice and toppled in, unconscious.

On berk one week ago.

"back so soon?" Gobber asked, helping his dismayed friend out of the boat.

"we found em' on an island, it was charred and dead, don't know why they'd choose it. Hiccup was unconscious, looked dead ta me for some reason, can you believe it! Running away with a girl, then almost dying, it's like he's trying to ruin the young lass' life."

"yeh never know, he might've had ta protect 'er, besides it's like her letter said, she ran way with him of her own free accord, she obviously loves him and true love can never be a burden,"

"psshaw, a girl like that being in love with hiccup, let alone as in love as you're suggesting. As if."

"so why did she run away with him then?"

"probably to avoid killin draguns,"

"but why did she, a girl who obsessed with killing the beasts, say hiccup changed her mind?"

and that got Stoick thinking.

Back to the island

The two woke up in the darkness.

"hiccup?"

"Astrid?"
"Hiccup I'm freezing."

"I know come here."

And they snuggled together. Then. (blast of blue fire)

"Toothless?"

(blast of yellow fire)

"Stormfly?"

then the ice above them melted, they saw light.

"we're going to get out of here," said Astrid.

Then noticing they were cuddled together they shared a long deep kiss. They headed back to the hut where they got their clothes and headed out to the springs to have a warm shower.

Back on berk.

Snotlout was sitting in his room, coming up with a plan,

One day I'll find you haddock, and when I do I'll kill you and your precious dragon and take Astrid as mine.
