- The Plaza, New Berk.
A feast was thrown with various foods for humans and dragons alike, and a bonfire was blasting hot in the center of the plaza as the Berkians had drinks after some buildings had been finished today. The next big project is repairing The Great Hall. Hiccup sat next to his fiancée at the private table before her parents, discussing 'the move in'.
"I will teach her all the Chieftain's work, and I promise I will not disgrace your daughter.".
"We know you will, Hiccup, we trust you." Astrid's mother smiled.
"Yeah, we're sorry about our daughter's stubbornness." Astrid's father chuckled.
"Dad!" Astrid pouted.
"To the future family." Astrid's father raised his mug.
"To the future family!" Hiccup, and the Hoffersons smashed their tankards, and celebrated their next step.
Then there were roars in the air, and shouts of merry Vikings. The family turned to look, what's going on? Hiccup thought as he got off the chair, and approached the crowd.
"Hiccup! Your dragon is evil! He's breaking Hookfang's record!" Snotlout walked away with a grumpy face.
"Yes! New record!" Hiccup could hear Tuffnut's voice coming from the middle.
This can't be good, Hiccup thought as he pushed himself in through the crowd, and found Toothless at the 7th tankard of Dragon's Mead.
"Toothless! What are you doing!?" Rushing in to take the tankard away, "You shouldn't be drinking!".
Toothless rolled his eyes, and massaged the Thought-Speaking's spot that now they call "Telepathy."
*I'm an adult, Hiccup! I'm 21! Stop acting like I'm a baby!* Toothless roared as the other dragons cheered, and some vikings went into shock.
"Toothless could talk?" whispers were heard among the Vikings, "Care to explain how?' Tuffnut asked as Hiccup's eyes remained on his best friend.
"He'll be fine, Hiccup," Astrid placed a hand on his shoulder, "It's just dragon nip, sage fruit, and honey.".
"And Gothi already confirmed that it won't harm dragons," Gobber added, "He'll be just a bit crazy, depending on how much he'll drink.".
*I'm not drinking!* Toothless cried at them, *I'm drowning my sorrow!*.
And then the dragon went to sleep right after the 10th tankard. Astrid, and Gobber helped Hiccup take Toothless back to his tent.
"Thank you, guys. I'm sorry about the mess."
"Don't worry! Reminded me of my first heartbreak." Gobber laughed as he left.
"See you tomorrow." Astrid told Hiccup after she gave him a kiss.
- Hiccup's Tent, New Berk.
Toothless groaned at the sunlight that rested on his face, Hiccup quickly brought in a bucket of water after his best friend finally opened his eyes.
"Are you alright, bud?" He asked after the bucket was empty.
Toothless let out a sad coo, and held Hiccup close with his forelegs. Hiccup rubbed his best friend's back.
"Do you wanna talk about it, bud? I can't help, but I can listen if you want me to.".
Toothless massaged his telepathy's spot.
*I messed it up, Hiccup. I tried, and it only made her even more scared.* Toothless said gently, *I went for a fly to clear my head after she left, but after I saw those dancing lights, her face haunt me. I don't think I could ever go to the places we used to go to anymore.*
"It's ok, bud." Hiccup patted his best friend, "It will get better, but if it won't, you'll still have me… and Astrid, Stormfly, Fishleg, Meatlug, Fishmeat, Ruff, and Tuff, Barf and Belch, even Snotlout, and Hookfang!" he reassured, "Everyone will be here for you, ok? You're not alone, Toothless.".
Toothless nodded, and held his best friend, rubbing away his tears.
*I think I won't build the Love Nest anymore.* Toothless said with determination, *I planned to have it built by the beach where I courted her, because she'd prefer being away from everyone, but I wanna build a nest that is really mine. I'll still use your design, but can I change it a bit?*.
"Sure, bud!" Hiccup smiled, "It's your house.", he added, "Talking about houses. Astrid, and I decided to move in together, our house will be on the high part of this Island, so it would be easier to see everything that is going on here. This tent will be gone today."
Toothless nodded, *I'm happy for you both. I think I'll have my nest by a cliff for when the other dragon comes, feel free to visit after it's done*.
"Sure, bud.".
Hiccup stood up, and prepared to put the auto-tail fin on Toothless.
*I won't fly today.* Toothless stopped him, *I wanna try something.*
"Sure," Hiccup replied, "I'll leave it with Gobber though, just in case.".
Hiccup, and Toothless leave the tent together.
"Have to go do the chief stuff now." Hiccup groaned, "See ya!" he smiled as they went separate ways.
- The Royal Nest, Hinn Faldi Heimur.
Luna tried mimicking Toothless drawing on dirt, and then brushed it off with a huff. What am I even doing? She asked herself.
*Thinking about him, dear?* Her mother, Viska asked.
*No.* She denied.
*If he was that bad, then why chose him in the first place?* Her sister asked.
That question froze her, Luna turned to the stick she just used for drawing.
*He was odd, had a very dry sense of humor, and recklessly stupid, but at the same time loyal, brave, and understanding.* Luna replied, *He's not the first male who tried to court me, but the first one who's being himself to me.*.
*And where do you think he learned that from?* her father, Einn asked.
*Human.* she sighed, not wanting to admit it.
*Then they can't be that bad, right?* Einn asked, *We're all our own souls, but at the same time, spirits of things around us.*.
'Drawing is my hobby, and I learned that from Hiccup. I could do sharp turns, and that's because Valka helped me. I am their alpha, because they trust in me, both humans, and the dragons here. Everyone made me who I am'.
*I know it can be scary, you're still new to everything out there.* Her sister picked up a saddle, *Life here is easy, you have everything you need, but there's more to the world than just Hinn Faldi Heimur, Luna.*
Luna watched her sister fly away with the saddle.
*What if it cost me my flight?*.
*And what if it won't?* Einn asked back, *I've never met them, but maybe they just have weird ways of expressing love.*.
*It's his first time showing you around. Maybe he's just nervous, and ended up picking bad options. Why not spend a day there, and see what their days are actually like?* Viska suggested.
*I'll think about it.* Luna replied, and went out for a fly.
Einn walked up to Viska, and laid his head onto hers. They looked down at their intertwined tail, and smiled. One of the tails was incomplete, but their hearts are.
- The Docks, New Berk.
Toothless got up from the water after he finished his lunch, passing a few ships, and fishermen as he walked up a wooden walkway that led up to the cliff. The Night Fury gazed out toward the horizon. This is the perfect place for his nest, but it's also a sacred place to him. He turned around, and entered the village not far away from the plaza, decided to leave it as it is.
'Wanna Talk With Your Dragon?
- Find the telepathic spot in the middle of their head.
- Rub in a circle!
Warning: Telepathy could tire them out.'
The wooden signs were scattered around everywhere as the Vikings, and dragons won't stop chatting through their day.
*Hello Toothless, how are you?* Meatlug greeted with Fishmeat on her back.
*Good, where is Fishlegs?* He asked.
*Planting Blue Oleander at the safer side.* Meatlug answered.
They walked around, and then came to a large empty spot of the village. This is perfect! He thought as he looked at the view, and copied Hiccup's drawing on the dirt with his claw.
*You wanna build your nest here?* Meatlug asked, and Toothless nodded, *Awesome, Fishlegs, and I live over there.* Meatlug turned to look at her house.
It's a dome structure with a design that mimics the appearance of a Gronckle Dragon.
*I think I wanna keep mine simple.* Toothless look at his design, *Gonna do the floor first.*.
*Good! We'll help.* Meatlug, and Fishmeat smiled.
*Me too!* Stormfly landed before them.
Toothless began digging a large square in the dirt as Stormfly went out to find woods. They charred the wood, and then spread it down the hole, creating a wooden floor. Meatlug returns with a large flat Gronckle Iron, and Hookfang arrives with coals in his forelegs. The floor and bed are done, next is the large part… the wall.
*So what will you use for the wall?* Hookfang asked.
*Just rocks, rock with saliva*.
BOOM!
*Thank you, Thor!* Toothless greeted the rain, *Damp saliva would work excellent under the rain!*.
*It's ok, Toothless, we can continue it tomorrow.* Stormfly chuckled.
*Yeah, let's go have dinner.* Meatlug suggested.
Toothless, Stormfly, Hookfang, Meatlug, and Fishmeat left the unfinished nest to find cover, unaware of the Light Fury that were watching them.
Viska = Wisdom
Einn = One
Nothing hurts like first heartbreak, even if it weren't that bad, let's be real, we all overreact when we're inexperience xD I remember locking myself in the room, and refuse to go to any places I went to with my Ex, I was 15 then xD
I'm not a love guru, but from my experience, it's not a good idea to isolate yourself, and avoid it. If you feel hurt, seek help, or at least find something positive to distract yourself with.
PS. What was your first heartbreak like? Feel free to share your experience.
