Hiccup sat, waiting on his bed. He heard the door shut and moments later the water started. He could hear the pipes carrying water to the bathroom, even from his room. He'd always been able to hear the water. The sound of the water running through the pipes used to put Hiccup to sleep at his old house. He hadn't been able to hear that sound since he'd moved out and lived alone.
He thought about the future, he couldn't help feeling slightly anxious. He didn't know what would happen or if they'd even get along. Toothless seemed friendly enough, though Hiccup couldn't help wondering why he and his family fought. Was he a trouble maker? Did he do something against the law? Or something worse?
He seemed nice enough though. Hiccup just couldn't seem to put his finger on it. He thought he knew, that he could tell what it was, he just couldn't identify it. But maybe not. Toothless did promise Hiccup that he'd tell him later. Hiccup hoped that it wasn't going to be a problem, whatever it was. He had a good feeling about Toothless though, like it was right to let him stay.
Hiccup looked over at his night stand. The clock read '11:07' p.m. Hiccup yawned again, stretching his arms above his head. His eyelids felt heavy, but he knew he might have trouble sleeping. Since someone was right next door. Such a different feeling, having someone in the house with him. Someone that he didn't know all too well yet. It would probably keep him up wondering and worrying.
He really wanted Toothless to be comfortable with him. He seemed to be very quiet at the moment. Like he was frightened of Hiccup. Well he was bound to have nerves. Heavens know Hiccup had quite a few. But then again he did say that he just needed to warm up to things. Then he was sure to come around. Hopefully they'd be friends soon.
Suddenly Hiccup had an idea, he smirked proudly at the plan, 'I'll make him breakfast!' Hiccup exclaimed in thought, 'I can get up early and make him pancakes and bacon! I wonder if he likes blueberry pancakes? Or chocolate chip? I guess I can make both really…'
Hiccup when on and on about his plan to impress Toothless with making breakfast for him. He hoped it would help them start off on the right foot. He really wanted to have everything work out. Hiccup usually wasn't so enthusiastic about things like this, but he was willing to do whatever it took to not mess anything up. He was confident in himself though.
A couple minutes of sitting on his bed and planning went by before he heard a knock at the door.
Hiccup looked up.
"Hiccup?"
"I'm done in there, you can take your shower now," Toothless said from the other side of the wooden door.
"Oh, okay. Are you going to bed?" Hiccup asked, starting to get up and out of bed to walk towards the door.
"Yeah if you don't mind…" Toothless mumbled quietly.
"Oh yeah that's fine! See ya in the morning?" Hiccup wondered, stopping in front of the door. he didn't open it though, he wasn't' sure if Toothless was decent.
Toothless smiled and chuckled, "Of course! 'Night Hiccup…"
The auburn haired boy smirked at Toothless' answer, "'Night Toothless…"
He waited for Toothless' bedroom door to close before he went to take a shower. He went into his dresser and pulled out a white A-shirt and pajama pants. He usually wore boxers to bed or even nothing at all sometimes, but obviously he couldn't do that with a roommate in the house. And that was too bad because the summers were hot.
Hiccup opened his door, walked out into the very dark hallway, and into the bathroom. He sut the door and locked it, flipping on the switch, he noticed that the mirror was still fogged up from Toothless.
He leaned over to the tub-shower and started the faucets. Once the temperature was to his liking, he pulled down on the bottom side of the faucet that made the shower nozzle begun to spray the water. Then he stripped out of his day clothes and put them on the counter for him to pick up later and stepped into the shower…
Hiccup finished washing himself and was about to wash his hair when he looked to the side of the tub. Toothless had set his shampoo and soap on the ledge of the white bath. He remembered the smell that greeted him when he first met Toothless. He did want to know how he possessed such an attractive aroma.
'Maybe it's his soap…' Hiccup asked himself. He reached over and picked up the black haired boy's shampoo. The name had worn off, but it seemed to be something of a sport nature. He flipped the cap open and smelled the soap. It smelled mint like, almost like eucalyptus. Not at all the smell like the one that Toothless had. Hiccup put the shampoo back and picked up the next bottle, which was old spice body wash. He wondered if it was weird that he was smelling Toothless' shower gel. But he brushed off the thought. How would he know? He flipped the cap and took a sniff. It smelled like regular old spice, nothing special. Not what he was looking for.
"Huh…" Hiccup grunted. Still not able to find where the smell came from.
Hiccup finished washing up and shut off the water. He stepped out, dried off, and slipped into his night clothes. Then he brushed his teeth and fixed his hair with his hands, matting it down so it didn't stick up everywhere. He flipped the switch to shut off the lights, then unlocked and opened the door.
Dirty clothes in hand, he made his way to his bedroom. He opened his door and set the clothes on the floor by his bed. He shut the door and jumped into bed, rushing to fall asleep so he could awake early tomorrow…
Sorry if it's a little boring. It'll pick up pace soon. I also apologize if any characters seem out of character. I'm trying my hardest. Review and Critique if you could, otherwise, see you in the next chapter.
