10; Endless Love
With one week to go until the wedding of Hiccup Haddock and Astrid Hofferson, the entire village was in a hustle to get things ready for the big day. Food preparations, decorations, ceremony proceedings, attire, guest list, and so much more. On top of wedding plans, Hiccup was still doing dragon training with the nine new riders teaching them everything he knew and learned over the last ten years. Astrid as he expected excelled in training, she was already flying in perfect form having mastered training, bonding, hand signals, dragon calls, foods, habitat, rescues, formations, and basic dragon facts exceeding just Deadly Nadder. Aside from Astrid learning to fly so had Gobber, Stoick, Fishlegs, Spitelout, Audun, and even Snotlout. The twins hadn't quite mastered working together and giving their dragon the same command but they were getting closer.
After more discussion, Stoick left it to Hiccup's decision of which chief's to invite to the wedding. It was tradition and couldn't not be done however both Heather's, and Camicazi's old tribes would have to come if that were the case. And Heather was an heir, so was Camicazi and they'd be recognized right away when seen. Stoick didn't want any ways and Hiccup didn't want any either with how perfect life had been since his arrival back to Berk. Hiccup knew there was only one choice, he had to tell them about the dragon riding. They trusted the Dragon Conqueror, and that is who Hiccup was. The man who could stop raids and lessen them. Hiccup decision: invite the tribe chiefs, offspring, and wives only to keep the guest list down. If these people called on the Dragon Conqueror for help and Hiccup was the Dragon Conqueror then surely they'd have to at least hear him out or so he hoped. Stoick was leaving this entire meeting to Hiccup, also he wanted to see how Hiccup handled himself if he were chief which is pretty much what Stoick named him for the day. Acting chief, meaning Hiccup was in charge.
Hiccup stood in the Great Hall as Stoick, Spitelout, Gobber, and Audun on Hiccup's order began to lead the chief's in while wives and children were sent to their stay areas for the week. Some chiefs didn't have wives though so heirs that were over 16 and older were permitted to stay for the meeting and of course second in commands as well. When chiefs arrived in the hall and saw Hiccup they actually didn't know who he was at first but it came out after everyone was seated and Stoick began the meeting. "Welcome, all of you to Berk. I thank you all for coming on such short notice but at the request of my son," Stoick paused as already people began to whisper to one another, "There is some business to take care of. So I'll now step aside and give the floor to my only son, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third." Stoick moved aside taking his seat.
"Before anyone asks, yes...I was the one who ran away ten years ago. I know my father made his way around asking if anyone had seen me for a year and no one ever did. There is a reason for that and it is the sole reason you were all asked to come aside from my wedding to Astrid Hofferson. I'll ask that you hold your questions until after I finish." Hiccup said firmly, hesitantly the others nodded. Hiccup took a breath as Stoick handed him his mask, Hiccup put it over his head and the room instantly gasped in shock. "I'm the Dragon Conqueror."
"Its been...YOU!?" Dagur yelled standing now.
"I wasn't finished. If it hadn't been for me, all of you would still be suffering detrimental level raids...I wore the mask so no one would know who I was. When I left Berk ten years ago, I left with a mission...To bring peace to the world. A world where there was no more fighting, no more bloodshed, no more war. Not just between Vikings...But between Vikings and dragons too." Hiccup explained.
"That is impossible, a hopeless dream." Stated Madguts.
"If it is as impossible as you state then how is it I can stop raids, lessen them from their normal over 50 to now a mere 15. In case you are unaware that is a 35 dragon difference that aren't destroying your villages anymore and making life a lot easier for everyone involved and this is not something can deny, can you?" Hiccup retorted after pulling off the mask and putting it on the table in front of him. The chiefs or chieftess's couldn't disagree with him as they just stayed quiet and looked at him again. Hiccup could tell which tribes were there: Berserkers, Bog Burglars, Murderous, Visithugs, Meatheads, Peaceables, Outcasts, Trapper, Hunters, and Hysterics. A lot of people were about to be against him but he didn't care, if he could show them the truth just maybe they would see what Berk did, what his other riders did.
"You believe peace is possible but you're defeating dragons yourself." Alvin of the Outcasts says.
"I don't defeat them, I send them off so they aren't hurt. I keep the peace on both sides, since I started interfering in raids...How much food has been taken from your islands? How many injuries? Deaths whether be human or dragon? Come on, be honest with yourselves now." Hiccup asked.
"None..." Dagur, Alvin, Bertha, Madguts, and Mogadon answered now as the rest just put their heads down in agreement.
"I side with both. Why should there be bloodshed and hate when there is another way? I found the other way and I will show you all if you give your word to stop killing dragons...I also have all of Berk supporting me too. What would you say if I showed you a better way? A way where dragons work with you instead of against you?" Hiccup offered calmly, this got their attention now. "Follow me." Hiccup replied, they all got up to follow outside as Hiccup walked a little ahead of them and his team following closely. Hiccup lifted Inferno-his double headed weapon that had a flame sword and the other side breathed Zippleback gas, then sparked it, and attached the chain to the clip as he began spinning it around over his head while it let off a ringing sound. A moment later he heard Toothless's roar before slamming the sword down in the ground just as the Night Fury leapt out of the trees and bounded towards Hiccup happily. Following him was Flarebeam, Waveblast, Ember, and Windshear. Before the chief or chieftess's of the other tribes could say a word, Hiccup jumped on Toothless's back while the riders got on their dragons. "What if I told you that you could be dragon riders?" Hiccup finished his sentence.
"This is...madness! You're riding them!" Madguts protested quickly preparing to pull his weapon but Toothless shot a blast near their feet.
"And they are fiercely loyal to their riders when a threat is made so I'd watch it if I were you..." Hiccup stated. Madguts stood down. "Look around you!" Hiccup ordered, as they all did they saw it swarming with dragons but not a one was attacking they were helping other Vikings or just lounging about on perches. "This is the true nature of dragons when you stop fighting them and understand that they are the same as you. Just creatures of Odin who want to survive and live in peace. These dragons, any dragon when shown kindness, respect, and understanding will be this docile. They can be your allies, your guards, your...friends. Isn't this," He motioned around them, "Better than innocent blood spilt?" Hiccup asked them.
"Listen to him, he knows what he's talking about...He trained a Night Fury for Thor's sake." Stilsta added, at this a lot of the chief's or chieftess's were in awe and agreed.
"This can be the future. One will peace for all." Hiccup smiled. After some silence of them all looking at one another, some mumbling and whispering they faced Hiccup.
"I will say one thing is for sure...The day your birth was announced, no one thought you'd survive but your father said you'd survive and become the strongest of them all. A chief among chiefs who would change this world..." Said Alvin now. "And was he ever right. The Outcasts are behind you, lad." The rest of the tribes with the exception of the Trappers and Hunters agreed too.
"You better just agree too because with everyone allying themselves with dragons...You are all out of a job." Gobber chuckled as his dragon came beside him now. Realizing the old blacksmith was right, the heads of both Tribes nodded agreeing. Toothless lifted his head and shot a blast of victory in the sky as the others laughed, Hiccup dismounted from Toothless just as Astrid rushed out tackling him to the ground with a barrage of kisses.
"You did it! You did it, Hiccup!" Astrid exclaimed.
"Be careful there lassie, don't wanna break 'im before the wedding or yew'll be getting hitched at his bedside." Mogadon chuckled as did the others. Astrid let Hiccup up but he took her by surprise when he wrapped his hands around her waist and kissed her deeply before them all. Astrid blushed when the hooting and hollering started but neither of them cared.
"Now all that's left to do is get married." Hiccup said after breaking the kiss.
"Five more days...I can't wait." Astrid replied. And Hiccup really couldn't, in just five days...Astrid would be his wife, and Soren's adopted mother. What could be better? Nothing, nothing at all.
(5 Days Later)
All treaties had been signed, every tribe would ally themselves with one another and with dragons. Hiccup taught them to bond, and fly all in about a 3 day course which sucked but he only taught the chief or chieftess's. Then would leave it to them to train the rest of their Tribes when they returned. Camicazi and Heather were returning to their Tribes, Stilsta and Eret were staying on Berk, of course so was Soren. Hiccup couldn't believe he started all this ten years ago and now it had become a huge thing for the entire Archipelago. But none of that mattered right now, all that he cared about was that in about 30 minutes, Astrid and him would be saying their vows and becoming husband and wife.
Hiccup and Astrid were holding their wedding outside, at the forest entrance. It was momentous to them, it was the spot they parted ten years ago and now it was the place they'd join their lives together as one. Stoick was heading the ceremony, Ruffnut was Astrid's maid of honor while Soren was Hiccup's best man. Toothless had a very special part to play after the vows were said. But no one knew about any of that just yet. Hiccup was wearing simple clothes, an old look for him but it meant a lot to him. His old green tunic, brown belt, dark brown pants, and boots. The only thing that changed was a brown fur cloak replaced Hiccup's brown vest and on his shoulders were of course his black shoulder protectors with the right one being his the strike class symbol: a Night Fury. He could believe this day had finally come, it was getting so close and he wasn't even nervous. He was sure of his choice, and he knew Astrid was too.
(30 Minutes Later)
Hiccup stood in his place, the left of his father while Soren stood left to Hiccup and Toothless beside Soren. Everyone was standing as the musical styling Vikings began to play a soft tune when Astrid appeared at the isle way with her father on her left to guide her down. Hiccup couldn't believe how beautiful she was: wearing a sleeveless, simple white dress with furs on around the neckline going around the back of her neck. Her hair was braided down her back with blue flowers braided in. Astrid held a bouquet of blue, yellow, and white flowers in her right hand as her left was linked to her father's arm. She was even wearing the simple shoes that Hiccup made for her, flats that revealed her ankles and part of her feet but not the toes and heels. Hiccup just couldn't get over how amazing she looked right now.
Audun began to lead Astrid down the isle towards Hiccup, slow steps until they were standing in front of one another. Audun kissed Astrid's cheek and placed her hand in Hiccup's. "I won't tell you to take care of her because I know you'd sooner die than let anything happen to her...So I'll just wish you both the best and all the happiness this life has to offer." Audun told them.
"Thank you sir." Hiccup bowed his head as Astrid nodded to him. Audun went to sit down beside his wife as Hiccup only stared into Astrid's eyes lovingly. "You look...amazing, Astrid." He whispered.
"So do you, Hiccup..." Astrid blushed as Stoick cleared his throat.
"You two can admire one another all ya want later, after yer married so lets get it started. I'm not getting any younger and I'd like to live to see the day my only son gets married." Stoick chuckled a bit.
"Oh hush, Dad..." Hiccup smiled but nodded. "I'm ready, are you Mi'lady?" Hiccup asked Astrid now.
"I've been ready for a long time." Astrid replied. Stoick nodded smiling as he looked out to everyone.
"Today we bare witness to an moment I never thought I'd ever get to see. My only son marrying the love of his life. Today we all stand before Odin to watch these two be joined in marriage and pray they be blessed for the rest of their days. Hiccup and Astrid understand that marriage is a never ending circle of trust, communication, loyalty, strength, courage, happiness, sadness, understanding, and love. The vows you speak today, can only be broken in the halls of Valhalla. With this understand, will you proceed to enter the circle of marriage?" Stoick asks.
"Yes." Both answered.
"Take one each others hands and face one another." Stoick said, Astrid turned and handed Ruffnut her bouquet as they took one another's hands staring into one the others eyes.
"Do you Astrid Hofferson, take Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third to be your wedded husband? To cherish and honor. Through times the times of sad and happiness, for richer or poorer, through sickness and in health, to protect and defend. To love and call your very own. To share all you are with body, heart, and soul. Will you be his, as he will be yours to have and to hold until death do you part?" Stoick asked as Astrid smiled.
"I will." Astrid answered gently.
"Do you Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, take Astrid Hofferson to be your wedded wife? To cherish and honor. Through times the times of sad and happiness, for richer or poorer, through sickness and in health, to protect and defend. To love and call your very own. To share all you are with body, heart, and soul. Will you be hers, as she will be yours to have and to hold until death do you part?" Stoick asked as Hiccup smiled.
"I will." Hiccup replied.
"Now for the rings." Stoick said as Soren handed the rings over, obviously something Hiccup crafted along with the necklace Astrid wore now, presented to her shortly after the engagement. It was simple too, a silver chain and what dangled from it was the the design of a Nadder on a gold pendant. On the back were their initials: HHHIII & AH. Their rings were just simple bands, one thin and one thick. Stoick handed the thick to Astrid, and the thin to Hiccup. "Repeat after me lass while you place the ring on Hiccup's finger: With this ring, I marry you and bind my life to yours. It is a symbol of my eternal love. My everlasting friendship. And the promise of all my tomorrows. As this ring encircles your finger, know that my love encircles your heart forevermore."
"With this ring, I marry you and bind my life to yours. It is a symbol of my eternal love. My everlasting friendship. And the promise of all my tomorrows. As this ring encircles your finger, know that my love encircles your heart forevermore." Astrid repeated sliding the ring on Hiccup's left hand ring finger. Hiccup took Astrid's hand in his as he placed the ring at the tip of her finger.
"Hiccup, repe-" Stoick began but Hiccup already started.
"With this ring, I marry you and bind my life to yours. It is a symbol of my eternal love. My everlasting friendship. And the promise of all my tomorrows. As this ring encircles your finger, know that my love encircles your heart forevermore." Hiccup stated sliding the ring on her finger and intertwining their fingers together as he leaned in to kiss her.
"With the vows and rings exchanged, their promises are to be sealed with a kiss. With the power vested in me as chief of Berk and the blessing of Odin above...I pronounce you husband and wife..." Stoick said quickly, "Now you may kiss your bride." In that moment Hiccup chuckled, so did Astrid and Stoick was suddenly afraid. They separated and whistled for their dragons, Astrid hopped on Stormfly while Hiccup climbed on Toothless while both took to the sky above flying in a circle. Stormfly used her fire to almost make a heart while Toothless shot a blast in the middle that lit it right up like fireworks. Hiccup flew upside down while Astrid remained normal and the two shared a passionate kiss from that position. Stoick only face-palmed, only Hiccup and Astrid would plan something so...nontraditional together and not tell anyone. The crowd was shocked but then just began cheering as the two broke apart and landed beside one another smiling.
From that moment, the day slipped into night with one hell of a party that everyone was enjoying. There was dancing, laughing, eating, a lot of drinking but all around happiness to anyone there. But as the time ticked away, Astrid and Hiccup were ready to just be alone together as husband and wife. "Time to sneak away?" Astrid asked him, he grinned nodded as the two slipped outside and made a break for the cove off Raven Point. This was there plan, they weren't going to spend the night in their new home no. They were going to spend it in the cove together, consummating their marriage. Both giggled like idiots racing through the forest, Hiccup leading and holding her hand as they reached the cove only 20 minutes later. Hiccup helped her down inside where everything was set up already.
A fire ring with wood, bedrolls, blankets, pillows just enough for them even a change of clothes for the next morning. Hiccup managed to sneak some snacks into a small basket, mead too. Oh it was going to be a good night for them. "Well here we are Mrs. Haddock...What do you want to do first? Drink, snack, swim?" Hiccup asked smiling. Astrid linked her fingers to his staring up into his eyes.
"I want you." Astrid told him gently, Hiccup knew what she was getting at of course. She wanted them to make love, before anything else that is what she wanted and he couldn't blame her. This day was a long time coming and now it was finally over. They were married and only one thing left to do for them to make it official and the best night ever. Consummate it their marriage. Hiccup smiled as he cupped her cheek, stroking it softly before leaning in and capturing her lips with his in a deep kiss.
{Lemon Below}
The heat between them only grew with the more kisses they shared. It hadn't taken either of them long to strip down to practically nothing. Hiccup had already taken Astrid's hair down from its braid, and removed her kransen. Astrid in her breast wrappings and underwear while Hiccup was only his his underpants. Hiccup's kisses on her skin became fiercer when they reached her neck making her gasp out at the feeling, her hands reached around to grip his back to try and keep from moaning out loudly but she couldn't. The moan escaped her lips and it only made Hiccup smile, "Don't hold back babe..." Hiccup told her as his hands moved to her bindings to untie and remove them from her body, while he did this she was admiring his incredibly built body. Ten years was definitely good to him. Hiccup's hands moved to Astrid's breasts and massaged them lightly, she bit her lower lip but still moaned out in pleasure.
To further the pleasure Hiccup lowered his mouth to the right breasts and began to tease it with his tongue and mouth, Astrid's moans grew louder as she clutched his shoulders drawing him in more. After a few minutes of this, he switched to the left breast and did the same. Astrid couldn't believe how amazing it felt, Hiccup was so firm but gentle too with her body which had never been touched by man since she had been saving herself for Hiccup, for this very moment where she could give herself to him fully. Now that he was back, and they were married...Nothing was holding them back from showing one another how much love they held for the other. Hiccup's kisses trailed lower down the center of her body to her underwear, he glanced up at her to make sure he could continue first and she nodded shyly to him.
Hiccup pulled the garments off her legs and tossed them Thor only knew where but Astrid didn't care, nothing else mattered right now but just them. Hiccup placed a soft kiss on each of her thighs then one right in the middle on her lower regions which sent shivers through her body but she smiled nevertheless and let him keep going. Hiccup's tongue ran up and down the folds, then he used used his thumbs to separate them as his pleasurable torture continued on. It only drove Astrid wild, her moans becoming louder and erratic as was her breathing in all this. "Oh Gods yes, Hiccup..." Astrid panted softly. Hiccup tongue carefully rolled around his wife's sensitive pink nub, this drove Astrid's hands to move to Hiccup's head as if pleading him to keep going but also the impulse to pull away before she lost it with pleasure. Hiccup took the hint to stop, he didn't want it to be over too quickly after all.
Astrid panted heavily now as she smiled at him, her cheeks flushed from the intensity between them, Hiccup removed his underpants and crawled over her, capturing her lips again. "You ready, Astrid?" Hiccup asked her.
"Not...yet...I want to try something first..." Astrid said as Hiccup blinked but nodded to her, she used her hand to push him back a bit so she could sit up and back on her knees while Hiccup was on his knees entirely, his length at her face. Astrid reached for the hardened appendage on her husband, she glanced up at him and he only nodded to her to go ahead if she wanted too. Astrid smiled a bit as she wrapped her hand around it slowly and began to move her hand back and forth along it, Hiccup groaned at the feeling. Astrid assuming she was doing good now moved her mouth closer and licked the tip before bringing some of his length in her mouth and sucking on him.
"Gah...Astrid..." He moaned. Astrid kept it up a while until she felt him pull her away. "I want you...now..." Hiccup panted, understanding Astrid laid back on the bed roll as Hiccup placed himself back between her legs and over her. He lifted her legs and spread them as he positioned himself at her entrance. "This might hurt a little..." Hiccup warned.
"Its okay...My mom warned me." Astrid nodded, Hiccup began to push himself within her core slowly of course. Astrid tensed at the feeling trying to stay calm and relaxed. Hiccup continued seeing no notion from her to stop so he pushed past her maiden barrier and entered her fully. Astrid cringed at first but took a few breaths and was okay, she smiled at him then a nod to go ahead. Hiccup's thrusts started slow and even, waiting for his wife's commands to do anything more than that. "Ah, Hiccup...It feels good..." She moaned out with her hands on his forearms.
"Gods it does..." Hiccup groaned in pleasure, he felt Astrid wrap her legs around his waist.
"You can...go faster, Hiccup...Its okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." Astrid told him, with his orders per say he began to pick up speed and with that came harder force but Astrid didn't seem to mind at all. She was actually moaning louder, begging for more practically. It came to a point about 20 minutes in that there was no more holding back, Hiccup was slamming into her hard and fast and she loved it all. "Hiccup! Gods, I love you!" Astrid cried out in pleasure.
"I love...you too, Astrid...!" Hiccup moaned. Neither of them could be happier right now, making love to one another in the serene state of the forest. Nothing was better and they didn't just stop at the one position or finishing together once. They kept going, as long as both of them could handle it, they kept going. Astrid riding on top of Hiccup, him taking her from behind, in the water, against the cove wall, and finally back to the first position with Hiccup over her. They'd left the hall when it was about 12:30 in the morning, judging by the moon's position now it was closer to four in the morning. But both couldn't go more, they were tired and needed sleep. They went another five minutes before Hiccup and Astrid both came again and collapsed beside one another panting hard. Hiccup's back was covered in scratches from Astrid, some even bleeding but he didn't care. This night had been too perfect.
After Hiccup softened, his withdrew himself from her hot core and laid beside her while she laid in his arms. Hiccup pulled the blanket over them. They shared another kiss before sleep took them both.
{Lemon End}
The next morning came quickly, both didn't want to get up but they had too. They cleaned up, dressed then made their way back to the village. As soon as they exited the forest smiling, they saw Stoick. As well as her parents, her new adopted son, and well just about everyone who was at the wedding the night before staring at them. Even their dragons. Astrid's hair was down, out of it's braid and the kransen she'd wore for just about 24 years was gone. It was an old tradition, a woman until she was married was to keep her controlled and the kransen on to be removed by her husband only after the woman was married and consummated her marriage. Hiccup carried the kransen in his right hand while his left held Astrid's.
"You all seriously haven't just been sitting there waiting for us to get back, have you?" Hiccup asked.
"No..." Hiccup and Astrid sighed in relief, "We took turns." Their eyes widened now.
"Are flipping kidding me?" Astrid screeched.
"You weren't supposta just leave on your own..." Stoick informed.
"Since when do I need permission to leave and make love to my wife, on our WEDDING night!" Hiccup growled.
"We tried to stop them, Dad..." Soren mumbled.
"I don't blame you son. I'm glad someone has some respect...Well we're back so can we back off now?" Hiccup asked.
"How do we know you really did it?" Snotlout asked, Hiccup froze and glared at him as the others backed off quickly. Hiccup let go of Astrid's hand as he removed his shirt and turned around revealing his still healing, scratched up back.
"Says the marks on my back from her nails digging into my skin because we made love for four hours last night. This is your only warning, shut your mouth or I will shut it for you. Permanently. Clear?" Hiccup asked, Snotlout nodded quickly as Hiccup put his shirt back on and climbed on Toothless's back. He pulled Astrid up with him and the two took off towards the sky.
"So what is next for us babe?" Astrid asked holding on to his waist while they enjoyed the early morning sky ahead of them.
"Who knows. The sky is the limit. Its endless, Astrid...Just like our love for one another. Its an endless love in an endless sky. It doesn't matter where we go, or what we do as long as we have each other. I love you, Astrid Haddock." Hiccup smiled.
"I love you too, Hiccup Haddock." Astid smiled back as they shared a passionate kiss with one another. He was right, it didn't matter anymore because they had one another. No distance could keep them apart, it never had and never would. No one could stand between them, and Hiccup made sure of that. All they had when their feelings for one another began, was a promise to return. A promise of hope held onto for ten long years. The promise that was honored and kept. And now it was the promise of forevermore. It was just like Hiccup said, eventually the world would be at peace with one another and with dragons one day. That day was today. The dream of yesterday was the reality of today. Now there was nothing left but an endless sky for an endless love to venture in with peace and happiness for all of their tomorrows together.
{Authors Note; Well this is officially the shortest story I've ever written but it was never meant to be long. A promise of one day returning, one day being together forever, one day seeing the truth, one day there would be peace. And in ten years, Hiccup made that day a reality and got the girl. So this is the end of "One Day". I hope you all enjoyed it and there will be a new story up soon! Thank you as always for the support and I'll see ya again with a new adventure! -Nightstar Fury.}
