I own nothing
A few hours later, Hiccup was forced to wake because of a coughing fit. Once the coughing fit stopped and he settled down, Hiccup looked around for Toothless. He couldn't find him.
"Toothless," he called.
The dragon didn't come when he called like usual. Hiccup began to get a little nervous.
"D-D-Dad?" Hiccup called, pulling the warm furs closer to him. "T-T-Toothless?"
Still no response. Getting more nervous, Hiccup got out bed, pulling a blanket fur over himself, and left his room to find his dad and Toothless.
"Dad," he called, going downstairs, coughing a little. "Toothless."
He looked around and didn't see them. He pulled the blanket fur closer and coughed some more. Hiccup was about to call again when Stoick and Toothless entered through the front door.
"Hiccup," said Stoick in surprise as Toothless ran up to his rider, nudging in greeting. "What are you doing out of bed?"
Hiccup didn't answer. He was too busy petting Toothless.
"Why are you out of bed, Hiccup?" Stoick asked again, crossing his arms.
Hiccup turned and saw his father's stern posture. Gulping, he pulled the blanket fur close.
"I woke up and couldn't find you or Toothless so I came downstairs," said Hiccup, looking at the floor.
Then, he began to cough, the blanket falling off his shoulders. Stoick rushed over to his coughing son and began to pat his back. Once the coughing subsided, Stoick picked up the blanket and draped it back over Hiccup's shoulders. Then, he placed a hand on his son's forehead.
"Still pretty warm," he muttered. "Come on now, back to bed."
"Can't I stay down here with you?" Hiccup protested before coughing.
Stoick shook his head and gently pushed Hiccup towards the stairs. Hiccup tried to stop but his father saw it coming and picked up his son bridal style.
"Dad!" Hiccup cried in surprised, coughing once more.
Stoick took Hiccup upstairs, put him in bed and covered him up with the blanket furs.
"I'll get you your medicine and soup," said Stoick, leaving for said items.
Toothless cooed at Hiccup, trying to make him feel better. Hiccup smiled at the attempt. Soon, Stoick was back and had him drink his medicine. Then, he fed Hiccup his soup. Well, tried to.
"Dad," said Hiccup, moving his head away from the spoon. "I'm still not hungry."
Stoick frowned deeply at this. Hiccup only ate 3 bites of soup; his appetite not improving at all. He sighed and placed the soup off to the side.
"Ok," said Stoick, getting up from the spot he was sitting in. "But you need your rest."
"I know," said Hiccup, rolling his eyes.
Stoick picked up the cold wet cloth, wrung it out and placed it on his 18 year old's forehead. He gave Hiccup's shoulder a slight squeeze.
"Sleep well son," said Stoick before going towards the door.
"Good night dad," said Hiccup tiredly, closing his eyes.
He was asleep instantly. Toothless laid his head on Hiccup's stomach and closed his eyes too.
"Watch over him," Stoick ordered the dragon.
He heard Toothless make a 'hmm' noise, indicating that he heard him, as he walked downstairs. He sat in a chair in front of the fire, thinking about Hiccup and his fever. He sighed, making a decision.
"I'll send for the healer tomorrow," Stoick muttered to himself. "Hopefully she'll know what to do."
