I own nothing
Hiccup was petting Toothless when his bedroom door opened to reveal his friends, Astrid and Fishlegs. He smiled weakly at them.
"Hey guys," he greeted before coughing a little.
Astrid went over to him, concern on her face.
"I guess flying did a number on you," she said, touching his cheek. "You were fine the last time I saw you."
"Resting is always the cure," piped up Fishlegs.
Astrid frowned.
"Fishlegs is right. You should've been home, sleeping," said Astrid, taking the cloth and re-wetting it. "What were you thinking?"
Hiccup sighed and shrugged as Astrid dabbed his face with the cloth.
"I don't know," said Hiccup. "I just wanted to fly. It gets boring being in bed all day."
"I know, I know," said Astrid, placing the cold cloth on her boyfriend's forehead. "But you must..."
"...Stay in bed and rest," Hiccup finished, rolling his eyes. "Dad already drilled that into my head so I'll save you the trouble in saying that."
Astrid sighed and rolled her eyes as well. They were quiet for a moment before Hiccup decided brake the ice.
"Astrid," said Hiccup.
"Hmm?" she asked, placing a hand on her boyfriend's cheek.
Hiccup lifted up a hand, grabbing her own and gave it a squeeze.
"Thank you for taking care of me," he told her. "Both of you."
Astrid and Fishlegs smiled at that.
"Your welcome Hiccup," said Fishlegs.
Toothless nudged Hiccup's hand, wanting him to pet him.
"Thank you too bud," said the 18 year old with a laugh while scratching Toothless' head.
Of course, the laughter caused Hiccup to have a coughing fit. The fit didn't last too long but long enough for his friends to look at him with worry.
"It's fine," said Hiccup, seeing the looks and waving them off. "Just a little cough."
Still concerned, Astrid stood up and made her way towards the door.
"Well, we'll leave you to rest," said Astrid.
"We'll be downstairs if you need..." Fishlegs started before he was interrupted.
"Wait!" Hiccup said quickly.
His friends stopped.
"I...I want you to stay," he continued, embarrassedly. "I want some more company."
Astrid and Fishlegs smiled. They came back in and they talked to Hiccup about all sorts of things. From dragons to training to improvements to the saddles. Some time passed when Hiccup yawned a little and Fishlegs saw.
"We better let you rest," he said, going towards the door.
"Yeah," said Astrid, going towards the door as well. "We'll be downstairs if you need us."
Hiccup nodded.
"Ok, I'll see you both later."
"Sleep well, Hiccup," said Astrid before leaving.
Hiccup stared at the door for a moment before turning to Toothless.
"Let's go to sleep bud," said Hiccup.
He closed his eyes and felt Toothless place his head on his stomach before falling asleep.
