Hiccup let out a sigh as he peered up to the sky again. But the starry sky held nothing new, much to the viking's disappointment. Toothless let out a coo of worry, seeing how upset his rider was.
"He promised he'd be back already…. I hope nothing happened to him." Hiccup voiced his worry, eyes scanning the sky again. The dragon's mouth clamped down onto the viking's shirt, tugging at him to bring him into the warm house. "J-just a little bit longer bud. I just want to make sure he gets here."
Toothless let out a snort, deciding to give Hiccup a few more minutes before pulling the stubborn viking in. But they didn't have to wait longer before Jack landed in front of them.
"Jack, you're alright." Hiccup let out a sigh of relief. He quickly wrapped his arms around the winter spirit, pressing his forehead into the crook of Jack's neck.
"Have you been waiting outside this whole time?" Jack asked, looking worried.
"No...not really."
Jack could tell Hiccup was not being truthful by how Toothless let out another snort of frustration, glaring at the viking. "Come on, you crazy viking. Lets get you inside and warmed up."
Hiccup soon found himself in a thick blanket, sitting on Jack's lap while the spirit sat on Stoick's chair. A fire roared merrily in the fireplace, courtesy of Toothless, who was munching on a few fish. A treat for having to deal with Hiccup.
"You're ridiculous Hiccup," Jack smiled softly, "You know I was coming back."
"I wanted to make sure." Hiccup smiled back. He reached out and pressed his lips against Jack's, the spirit returning the affection without question.
"I'll always come back Hiccup." Jack comforted, pulling back slightly to speak, their lips brushing together.
"Just come back faster next time, alright?" The viking whispered, pulling Jack back in.
Toothless rolled his eyes and rested in front of the fireplace as Jack and Hiccup made up for lost time.
