Chapterrrrr! So glad you all liked the last one. So many questions about Stoic!

I do not own How to Train Your Dragon.

Enjoy!

Hiccup had been really down ever since the argument with his dad. Toothless and I tried to cheer him up but it was hard. He pretended we were helping but I could see we really weren't.

It was the next race on Sunday and I hoped that would lift up his spirits a little. After I'd been annoyed at Hiccup not telling me about his last race, he'd gotten me tickets for this one. Good tickets. VIP tickets. Not the kind where you get the front row. The kind where you have a private viewing room. This particular track has a room with a glass wall that's so close to the track, you're practically on the race course. The room is kind of like an obstacle. It has the best view of the race you could possibly get.

I could see the starting line and watched as Hiccup double checked Toothless tail and sadle. I watched him mount and double check his suit and helmet. I watched the countdown and watched as all the riders raced off. It was great at first. Until I heard someone behind me.

"Astrid?" I turned around to see Scott. Of all people!

"Scott?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Watching the race," I said wondering how he could get any dumber.

"Right, I meant the VIP room." I desperately tried to think of a reason why I was here that wouldn't bring up any questions.

"I know a guy," was the best I could come up with. I felt like testing the thickness of the glass with my head. "What about you?" I asked before he could say anything else.

"My uncle is one of the commentators. Cool huh? I could get you in here any time you want." He wiggled his eyebrows and made what could have been a kind offer very uncomfortable.

"I'm good, thanks," I said turning back to watch Hiccup. Watching on TV was one thing, but actually being there was amazing. I didn't realise how much the didn't show on camera. I could see the looks on their faces as the pulled in front of a competitor or when someone over took them. Either pride or shame.

The experience would have been amazing had Scott not been there. He kept trying to hit on me. Emphasis on trying. Even if I didn't have a boyfriend, it still wouldn't be working. Self centred prick. I was so glad I hadn't listened to the advice of the girls on the team or I would have gone out with that months ago.

I looked down at Hiccup as he pulled ahead. He only had one lap left to win. He just kept picking up speed and then he was over the line and the croud was on their feet and screaming his name. Well, Night Rider's name. I was so proud of him and I just wanted to kiss him. So I decided I would. Scott was too busy gawking by the window that he didn't notice me slip away. I made my way down to the track and to the area closed off for the riders, their dragons and anyone else on their team.

I got to the gate and was about to step through when a big man dressed in all black with a grim expression on asked me for my pass. I showed him the VIP pass hoping that would work but apparently that was only for the VIP room. I called out to Rider and when I caught his attention he signalled to the man to let me in, who was then one of the nicest guys I had ever met.

I made my way over to Hiccup and Toothless, the dragon pushing his head into my hands. I gave him a quick scratch behind the ear before turning to Rider.

"Big win," I said with a smile. He laughed and nodded still messing around with Toothless gear. "Did beating their asses make you feel better?"

"What makes you think I felt bad?" he asked, his voice slightly muffled from the helmet.

"You've been moping around since your dad left. We both noticed. Did winning make you feel better?" I smiled while Toothless looked up expectantly.

"Almost," he said thoughtfully. "But to make it a hundred percent better, I need a little something from you." I laughed and stepped forwards, opening up the front of his helmet just enough so that I could see his mouth. I leant up and kissed him, long and sweet. A few wolf whistles went off around us before I pulled back, peering into the mask and looking at his forest green eyes.

"How about now?"

"Definitely better."

So? What do you think? I know there wasn't so much about the actual race itself but this is a sort of important chapter for the story. Please, just trust the idea in my head.

To everone who keeps asking about what's going to happen in future chapters, I want you to know that I really appreciate the reviews you send and I'm really glad you enjoy the story but I shan't reveal anything. You have to just wait and see. Please still send me your thoughts on what you think will happen, cause I enjoy reading them, seeing who's right and who's wrong, but just know you won't find out until revealed in the story.

The Whisperer of Death: Like I just said, whether you're right or wrong I won't tell, maybe yes...maybe no... Who knows? *evil grin* But keep sending your thoughts. I'm glad to read them.

ShadowSpirit020: Stoic doesn't view racing as a sport therefore Hiccup is afraid to tell him in case he disapproves and makes him give it up.

TigerHollow: Sorry! Next time I have a short chapter I'll try to update twice in one week. Deal? Nice idea by the way!

Miti-sweets: Thanks. To be honest I probably could write more often but then I find a new story to read and get distracted... I'm really good at getting distracted. *laughs awkwardly*

PheonixWillowsRox88: Maybe you have... I'm trying to keep this light but I have an idea for another for that's a little darker but I won't be doing that for a while. It's only an idea and I'm trying to focus on one fix at a time.

Grandtheftfandom: Glad I could make you laugh! About the characters, they're not mine so use them if you like. Though I do like the Hiccup from your fix. He's pretty badass.

Jeptwin: Tadaaaaa! Hope you liked it!

Pancitagamer: There is a whole load of fluff coming! I hope you liked it!

thedeathwidow: Yes. No. No. Yes. Could be either one really. Just have to wait and see. *grins evily from behind computer screen*

SpeedRacer175: Who knows? *winks*

alejg: No te preocupas. No voy a dejarlo.

Shadow 4146: I felt like it wouldn't be Hiccup and Toothless if Toothless had both tail fins. That's what makes them so amazing!

MrAnderslversen: Thanks again! Hope you liked this one too!

Reptil: Why do people keep asking me this!?

Theimissinglink: I don't know. Or do I? *evil laugh*
