BrawlerGamer - don't despair, there's a couple of epilogue chapters.
FuntasticMe - we shall see! I hope it's a full season I can get a pizza and just waste away binge watching RTTE.

-HTTYD-
"I hate sleeping alone."
"Me too. You make such cute sounds when you sleep."
"Never mention that again Haddock."
Now they were more openly together, goodnight texts were often replaced with goodnight phone calls. That was a perk.
The downside was it was much harder to be alone - Astrid's mother was often hovering for info on the boyfriend, and the only time they could find in the week was if Hiccup didn't go volunteering. They took that time, but it always meant merciless teasing from Valka the next day about them being like randy teens always hiding away.
"Fine. You still want me to come over tomorrow?"
"Yep. You're meeting my mother, then we're escaping to your house."
"As milady commands."
"Idiot. Love you."
"Love you too Astrid. Sweet dreams."
"Night."
They hung up, and Astrid made sure to send a quick text detailing less-than-sweet things Hiccup should dream about. His response about it being difficult to sleep with an erection made Astrid feel pangs of lust and loneliness. She wanted his hold around her, wanted to feel their bare skin as they were intimate and again as they fell asleep together. One more day...
She couldn't wait for term to be over - when Hiccup no longer worked for the college and they already had plans for her to spend most of a week with both Hiccup and Valka before her boyfriend started his new dream job.
Hiccup was as excited as Astrid, because the first thing he wanted to do was take her out - nothing special, but once he wasn't her teacher they didn't have to hide a thing. Not that they hid much now - once they were off college campus, all bets were off. They openly kissed and hugged at the Nature Centre, and Hiccup was about to come over and meet her mother.
Then there was Hiccup's father - who had invited the couple over. Hiccup had been adamant Astrid didn't have to if she didn't want to, but since she had been the one to insist he try and patch things up with his father, the least she could do was agree. That was next week, and mildly terrifying to think about. Astrid was like, the size of one of Stoick's arms.
She woke up clutching her pillow as though it could serve as a Hiccup replacement to cuddle, wondering when she had become such a sap for simple things like that. She never had before, even when she thought she was in love. Hel, while Hiccup hadn't changed Astrid, he had certainly brought out a new depth of feeling in her, peeling back a layer of her soul to find his place in it.
Gods, romance was turning her into a bad poet.
Dressing for college, she packed her overnight stuff for Hiccup's and left the bag on her bed to grab later, then strolled down the stairs to find her mother in the kitchen, bacon merrily burning on the stove. Rescuing the breakfast, Astrid sat down to eat while her mom finished some paperwork, then looked up at her.
"Today's the day I meet your boyfriend isn't it?"
"Yep. Remember you can't tell anyone about him yet, college is over in a couple of months and it makes no sense to just out it now."
She nodded at Astrid, finally noticing the food and setting into it hungrily. Washing her bacon down with some coffee, she felt marginally more alert by the time Heather was at her door for the day.
"Morning Heather."
"Morning second mother. You ready girlfriend?"
"Just need to put on shoes."
Her mother hugged her on her way out, promising to behave when Hiccup came over... Astrid would believe that when she saw it.
"So he's meeting your mom today?"
"Yeah. Considering last time she saw him, it was when she had interrupted us potentially having sex for the first time up against my kitchen wall."
Heather cringed and laughed, starting up her car and pulling out along the way.
"We gotta stop off by the pharmacy."
"Why?"
"Because I'm staying at Hiccup's tonight, I'm out of condoms and it's unfair to always assume he's remembered."
"I'm sorry I asked."
Deciding to go one further, Astrid successfully traumatised her best friend by buying lube as well as condoms, umming and ahhing about whether flavoured lube would make oral better until Heather put her hands over her ears and the pharmacist gave them a dirty look.
"I'm going to regret this... what did you need lube for?"
Grinning to herself, Astrid wanted to go into excruciating detail about pegging, but that wasn't fair to Hiccup - especially since they hadn't done that yet.
"Because I said we could try anal. This is essential gear."
"Yep. I was right. I regret it."
Giggling, Astrid threw Heather a chocolate bar from the pharmacy bag and hummed to herself as sweet flavour spread over her tongue. She had a text from Hiccup waiting, lamenting that he couldn't finish early on a Friday like her.
"I'll make it up to you when you get to my place."
"How's that?"
"Well, you'll be wearing your leathers so... pretty much any way you want."
"Great, thanks to that image now I've got a class in five and an erection."
"You're welcome! Oh, I bought lube today."
Heather looked over curiously when Astrid started laughing, then realised she probably didn't want to know and focused on the road again. Justin was waiting by the car park for her, greeting Astrid politely and smiling soppily when Heather kissed him in greeting. They were too cute!
"Astrid, that's not funny. I don't have time to go deal with this."
"It's kinda funny. I promise to make it worth your while. Until then, maybe you should picture your conception."
"... Disturbing, but effective."
Yeah, Astrid had realised how disturbing it was almost the minute she sent it. At least he wasn't pitching a tent in those sinfully tight jeans of his. Mmm, that was a pleasant thought...
"Astrid! Stop daydreaming, we have class."
"Ruining all my fun. Let's go."
College dragged by painfully slow, anticipation building every hour as they exchanged texts... well, sexts, between classes and Astrid was dangerously close to needing to get off just to last until Hiccup came over without going crazy.
"I'm going to Justin's, so Hiccup can use my parking space. And that is not a euphemism."
"You're a doll Heather. Have you two done the deed yet?"
"No, but there was... touching last night."
"No wonder you were in such a good mood this morning."
Heather flushed lightly, finished fussing with her hair in Astrid's hallway mirror and blew her a kiss before skipping down the steps outside to her car. Needing to distract herself, Astrid hopped in the shower and tried to ignore the insistent throb in her groin, knowing it was well worth waiting for Hiccup to come take care of it. She debated putting on some cute underwear, but remembered its average shelf life when Hiccup was undressing her. He probably wouldn't even notice as he went for her bare skin.
"Finally! Just putting my riding gear on, then I'm on my way."
"Use Heather's parking spot, she's gone to Justin's and said you can."
"Thanks. See you soon beautiful."
There went her knees again. She wondered if he would ever stop being able to make her weak. Probably not, the irresistible dork.
Her front door was barely closed behind him before their lips clashed, need pouring out of them both as they kissed. Hiccup nuzzled her nose and feathered kisses across her cheeks, basking in being with her again as he often seemed to.
"Hey you."
"Hey yourself."
"How long until your mom gets home?"
Astrid craned her head to check the kitchen clock, then her mothers schedule.
"About an hour and a half."
"Good. Because there's something I've been dying to do."
"Oh?"
Hiccup's eyes darkened as he raked them down her body, hunger writ across his features.
"Strip, then up against that wall."
Astrid had to bite back a whimper, already wet at his demanding tone as she undressed for him right there in her kitchen. He unfastened his bottoms and palmed his cock as he watched her, Astrid shivering under his scrutiny as she got down to her underwear. He watched expectantly, reaching into his jacket and pulling out a condom packet to put on. Remembering that time when he had her pressed against the wall before, Astrid shuddered as she turned and faced the wall, waiting.
She was naked in her kitchen. The front door was locked, but... Heather or her mother could potentially walk in and be separated by only one door from seeing Astrid practically in heat while Hiccup was fully dressed. He approached slowly, biting at her shoulders and smirking into her skin when Astrid arched and moaned.
"You have no idea how much you test my self-control."
"How about you-uuu" her voice caught as he reached to press a finger inside her, checking she was wet enough to take him "don't control yourself?"
Hiccup growled, reaching to squeeze her breast roughly then grabbing hold of her hips and she felt his sheathed cock probe her entrance. She pushed back, begging him to fill her.
"Tell me you want this."
"Gods, I want this. I need it. Need you to fuck me."
Shame and dignity were long gone as Astrid pleaded and begged, beyond caring so long as he got inside her. She heard his breath catch, heard his gloves go back on before leather-clad fingers gripped her hips. Astrid was very glad Hiccup was happy to indulge her kink of his riding gear. He always felt bigger from behind, stretching her open a little more and it took her breath away.
Gasping for air, she quaked in his hold and felt the little sparks of pleasant pain where his fingers would leave delicious little bruises. Hiccup pressed his forehead between her shoulder blades, little hot puffs of air condensing on her bare skin, a contrast to where cold leather gave her goosebumps.
"C'mon Hiccup, need you..."
Her breathless plea did the trick, his hips finally moving and the feeling was sublime. Hiccup pulled her down a little further, more bent at the waist with a hand on her lower back to hold her in place as he fucked her. Astrid cried out at the brutally perfect angle, sending waves of pleasure through her whole body and her legs shook beneath her. Hiccup's hand on her hip clamped tighter to support her, pain melding seamlessly into the pleasure as she moaned his name.
"Again."
Fuck, she loved it when he growled.
"Hiccup..."
His hips stilled for a second and Astrid whined in frustration, pushing back but Hiccup stilled her, pulled out completely and it was horribly unfair. He stumbled back, eyes wide and dilated as he smirked before turning for the stairs.
"Coming?"
Would have been if you hadn't stopped!
Astrid picked her clothes up and tossed them in the laundry basket so her mother wouldn't be suspicious, then habitually held her boobs in place as she hastened to follow Hiccup up the stairs to her room. He was laid on her bed with that smirk still in place, jacket unzipped but otherwise as dressed as she left him.
"I got tired of doing all the work. Your turn."
Astrid didn't waste a second, climbing up on his slim hips and sinking down his cock the second he held it in position for her. Oh, it felt good to have him back where he belonged, filling her beautifully. Leaning back slightly to shift the angle, Astrid ignored the burn in her thighs from trying to stay upright downstairs and lifted herself, dropping down and oh yes, that was what she needed.
"Gods Astrid... so good."
His head was thrown back, muscle cords of his neck standing out as he moaned and cursed while Astrid rode him though he obviously made a heroic effort to keep his eyes open to watch her. Hiccup made her feel the absolute peak of desirable, staring up at her like he had never seen a more appealing sight in his life and it was a heady feeling.
Despite his complaint about doing all the work, Hiccup couldn't stay idle and reached for her hips, helping guide her motions and thrusting up to meet her. Astrid felt her body coil tight, the sensations closing in around her until her body could take no more and she clenched on his cock. Waves of pleasure kept going, over and over until Astrid thought she would lose her mind.
Eventually the white heat began to ebb away, Hiccup's muttered curses somewhere in there telling her he had found his release too and slowly brought her back to earth.
Or was that the bed? Close enough.
"Damnit."
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Blinking haze from her eyes, Astrid looked to where Hiccup indicated her developing bruises. She smiled at them, still basking in the afterglow of her lax muscles.
"I've told you before, I like them. I'm pale, I bruise easy."
Hiccup frowned, taking off his jacket and cleaning himself up before crawling back onto the bed and kissing Astrid soundly. His eyes didn't waste chances to gaze upon Astrid's naked body, practically worshipping her with those emerald orbs of his.
"It's against all my natural instincts to hurt you."
Astrid started working at getting him naked, t-shirt coming off agreeably before she went for his bottoms.
"Hiccup, there's a huge difference between sadistically causing me pain and giving me a couple of bruises during some fantastic rough sex, ok? You just have to trust that I wouldn't just stand there and take it if all I was getting was pain."
He rolled over and kissed her again, making it clear he wanted to cool the flames with something softer and slower. Astrid was a little sore after he'd fucked her good already but still welcomed it, loving the soft whimpers against her neck and the teasing, whisper-light caresses of his fingers over her skin. The ache faded the longer he took her slow, leaving only pleasure she felt right down to her bones that washed over her in a slow tide, the climax leaving her soft and pliant on the bed as Hiccup gasped his own pleasure. He disappeared from on top of her, but then he was re-appearing next to her and Astrid burrowed into his arms happily.
"Feel better now?"
"Much. I love you."
"Mmm, love you too."
Astrid's phone buzzed as an alarm - her mother would be home soon. Astrid had had a sneaking suspicion they would get a little sidetracked.
"Does that mean we have to get dressed?"
"You could meet my mom naked if you want, but you'll catch a chill when we leave."
By the time the mother-Hofferson returned, Hiccup and Astrid were both (trying to appear at least) innocently sat drinking coffee and eating peanut butter sandwiches. Hiccup's leather jacket was slung over the back of his stool, taking some of the bulk off his narrow upper body.
"Hey mom. Mom, this is Hiccup. Hiccup, meet my mother Ingrid Hofferson."
Hiccup slid from his stool and held out his hand a little awkwardly, but her mom took it.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Hofferson."
"Hiccup? That's an-"
"It's a ridiculous name, don't worry, I know. Hiccup Haddock the third at your service."
Astrid glared at Hiccup - she liked his name.
"So.. Astrid tells me you're her teacher?"
"Uh, yeah. I am. But not for much longer, I'm just finishing out the term."
"And you think it appropriate to be dating one of your students?"
Astrid wanted to throw something at her mother. They'd had this conversation already!
"One of my students? No. But Astrid is no ordinary student. I love her."
If anyone saw Astrid looking a little gooey and brought it up, she would cause pain. Her mother held his gaze for a minute longer, then broke out into a smile and threw her arms around a slightly confused Hiccup.
"I'm yanking your chain lad, I've never seen Astrid this happy. You're fine here."
"Oh-h-h. Ok. Thank you."
"Haddock... you're Stoick's lad?"
"That's right."
"Well, you didn't get much from him. He's much more rugged and ooooh all that-"
"Mom! Stop that immediately before I have to bleach my brain."
Hiccup was lost for words as he watched Astrid's mother basically drool over his dad, unsure what to do.
"I uh, I take more after my mother."
Hiccup mumbled, but Astrid had had quite enough.
"And on that note, we're leaving before you scare him off for good. You can meet him when your hormones are under control."
Astrid grabbed her overnight bag and her boyfriend, carting both outside away from the mad woman inside. She would have felt more guilty, but Astrid knew her mother had a date that night and hadn't told her yet. She really hoped it wasn't with Stoick though.
"Please take me away from my mother."
"Should we have left so soon?"
"Yeah, she would have started getting antsy any minute because she's got a date."
"Who with?"
"No clue, but I know the signs of sneaking around remember?"
Hiccup blinked, handed her a helmet and placed his on. Astrid shoved her overnight bag in his bikes saddlebag, then climbed up behind him and grabbed hold of her boyfriend. The bike roared to life beneath them, a rush every time as she remembered the first ride - the same night as their first kiss.
Valka and Toothless were both lazing on the grass outside the house when they got there, enjoying the late evening sunshine.
"Hey Valka! Hello cutiepie."
"Evening kids."
Hiccup took off his helmet and ducked to kiss his mothers hair, hugging her in greeting.
"Hey mom. Hey big fella! You want to order chinese tonight? Or I can make up a pasta thing."
"Whichever you want son."
He rolled his eyes at her, still grinning.
"Not helpful. Astrid?"
"Pasta. I'll help."
"The lady has spoken. Off you go."
They changed into pyjamas and put Order Of The Phoenix on, having had Goblet Of Fire on when Astrid came over for dinner (and sex) in the week. Hearty bowls of pasta bake in laps, they settled in for the film and Astrid again marvelled at how easily she could slot in to another families night.
"Good gods what is that woman wearing?"
Valka was perplexed by Umbridge's outfits, all pink and fluffy. Astrid's phone buzzed, 'mother' flashing up on the screen and the text made Astrid choke on her pasta, Hiccup similarly troubled when she showed him the message.
"The neighbours said in future, can you keep it down? They were eating dinner in the kitchen at the time!"
"Oh that's awful! I'll never show my face there again."
Valka, only knowing half the conversation, looked confused.
"What's that son?"
"Nothing mom!"
Astrid chuckled, then shoved another forkful of pasta in her mouth. She would have to thank her mother for the amusement.
Hiccup grimaced as his leg was prodded, shifting uncomfortably in his hospital gown - why did he have to wear it? His leg wasn't even in the gown. It was being measured by a tiny Polish man in a nurses uniform.
"Well doc?"
"Any new symptoms?"
"Nope. Usual stiffness in the morning, and it aches if I work too hard or stand too still but the medicated balm still does the job. Please tell me I don't need more surgery, I'm starting a new job soon."
"I don't think we can say never, but you're alright for now. I want you back in six months instead of a year though, to check on this particularly thick section. It's bigger than last year."
"Great. Send me a date."
If his scar was still stretching, that meant it could get deeper and that meant it could need releasing again - more surgery. He couldn't do much about it, short of stay horizontal for a month and have someone rub scar treatment into it twice a day... Astrid would probably volunteer but Hiccup would go mad with boredom.
Standing up to redress again, the doctor and nurse could be heard chuckling - Hiccup was used to dressing in front of the medical staff, as they had been treating him since he was a child.
"Has anything else changed for you Hiccup?"
His voice shook with suppressed laughter. Hiccup, bemused, turned back while fastening his jeans.
"What do you mean?"
"Girlfriend? Boyfriend?"
"Yes? I have a girlfriend. Why?"
"Your back is looking a little... angry."
"Oh."
Hiccup remembered the exact occasion, feeling Astrid's short nails clawing at his back as she threw her head back and cried out her pleasure...
He needed to stop thinking about that before he was sporting an erection in the hospital room.
"Well, I'm... very happy for you. You're free to go. Call me if you have any trouble with your leg."
They were still snickering to themselves as he left, getting outside to go catch the bus (the doctors always told him off for wearing his leathers). He called his mother to update her about his leg, as she knew he baulked at having any more surgery on the leg that had troubled him ever since he jumped out of a window thinking he could fly.
"How did it go?"
"Pretty sure I'll need more ops in the future, but he cleared me for six months and wants me back in to check then."
"That's good. What are you doing with your day now?"
"I need to go pick up Astrid's birthday gifts, so I may as well do it now since I have the day off work."
"How long do you have left there?"
"Two weeks. Can't wait to be honest."
"Is that because of Astrid?"
"And my new job. But... yeah, mostly Astrid."
He could hear her smiling on the other end of the phone.
"You're so happy Hiccup. I love to see it."
They ended the call on smiles, and Astrid's gift was his next stop - he got her the leathers he'd drawn her in custom made, because while he had given her his old jacket, Hiccup always worried about her behind him on it. Plus... Hiccup was awful at gift giving. Astrid was practical, she didn't need anything and - from overhearing Heather ask the day before - Astrid's answer to "what do you want for your birthday" was "nothing."
Thankfully, she loved them. And Hiccup couldn't deny that seeing the blue-gold leather cup her breasts was hot. They sat neatly along every curve, and he started to understand why Astrid liked his so much.
"They are surprisingly comfortable."
"You think anyone would wear them if they weren't? I'm just happy you'll be safe now."
"Like I would ever let go of you."
She smiled, pretty pout curling up as she slid free of the leathers, then continued taking off her clothes and Hiccup shook himself, trying to process how he was lucky enough to have such a beautiful girl wanting him so fervently.
Finally, finally, Hiccup's job was coming to an end. Dragon Wheels were thrilled - they'd already had him in for measuring and now Hiccup proudly owned a new set of overalls with the dragon-on-wheels logo emblazoned across the back and H.H on the front.
"Ye sure about this Haddock?"
"Well I start a new job in a week, so I better be."
"Oh? Where ya going?"
Hiccup grinned as he signed the termination of his contract with the college, opening the spot up for his replacement.
"Dragon Wheels hired me to design and build bikes."
"Well, I can't argue with that, gods know that's where you belong."
Glad that he had never had to bring up the relationship with Astrid, Hiccup left the college campus a free man and piled his few personal effects into his saddlebag. He would miss his colleagues, but Hiccup was so excited for the upcoming phase of his life he almost felt like bursting.
Astrid was already at the Nature Centre with his mom, playing with Cloudjumper and just generally being the most beautiful woman Hiccup had ever seen. She fell into his arms easily, kissing him freely.
"All done?"
"All done. So we're finishing at six, going home to shower and dress and I'm taking you out because I can. I even made mom dinner in advance so she can just reheat it."
Astrid smiled up at him, lit up under the sun like the first time he'd seen her stealing his heart. Now she was in his arms, and he was free to proclaim her as his girlfriend with no repercussions. Even Dagur had stopped miming murder on sight of him.
They left at six... but got a little waylaid between showering and dressing, where Astrid stole his towel and started touching him. Eventually, they got on their way out - Astrid in her new leather jacket and making Hiccup's heart pound. They pulled up outside the club, checked in helmets and jackets and Astrid sipped her beer.
Hiccup felt a sense of dejavu, except now they were out for the freedom, not the anonymity. They weren't lying to anyone about where they were. He remembered that night, the anticipation building as they looked at each other, the feeling of her body against his when they danced.
Astrid seemed to feel it too, grabbing hold of her gangly awkward boyfriend and dragging him out in to the mass of bodies in the centre. The little minx wasted little time in making Hiccup's leather bottoms far too tight, pressing and rubbing against his body with her own, ghosting her fingers up under his shirt and dipping into his waistband. He was fairly certain Astrid moaned when he pressed his cock against her cute little ass, showing her how she tormented him so.
The next song to come on wasn't necessarily slower, but it ran deeper and slowed their bodies into a dance that wasn't exclusively foreplay.
Here we are to find something
Here we are to make a move
And I just need a little bit
I just need a little bit love
You just need a little bit love
It seemed oddly fitting, descriptive of how they were finally embarking on an adult, non-secretive relationship.
I don't need a crown on my head,
Or a plan how to grow old
But I just need a little bit
I just need a little bit love
You just need a little bit love
Hiccup had never really felt special. Not until Astrid fell in love with him, because that was special.
And it makes me crazy
How I need you baby
No I can't escape it
Cause I just need a little bit love
Just need a little bit
I just need a little bit love
Just need a little bit
The faster beat brought Astrid back against him, kissing him so thoroughly Hiccup forgot to breathe.
Can you see the bright horizon
Come with me to somewhere new
Cause I just need a little bit
I just need a little bit love
You just need a little bit love
He almost forgot how dark his world had been all those years, before Astrid turned up with her personal sunshine and turned the last few months into pure happiness.
And it makes me crazy
How I need you baby
No I can't escape it
Cause I just need a little bit love
Just need a little bit
I just need a little bit love
Just need a little bit
Only you, and you alone
Only you, can make me whole
Take my heart, my heart belongs to you
Those lines repeated, the intense look the two dhared telling that it rang true for them both. Hiccup had never really understood the concept of "oh, that's our song" because he just never had time for music, but now it was thrumming inside him and Hiccup knew he was totally looking up the song when they got back to an internet connection
I just need a little bit love
Just need a little bit
"Take me home."
Astrid whispered against his neck, somehow perfectly audible over the music.
"Why?"
Her coy smirk made him twitch, her hand on his ass squeezing.
"I just need a little bit love."
-HTTYD-
This was later than usual, but that's because I was out doing adult stuff like paying rent and going shopping. I had 3,500 words of this written last night, but couldn't get back on it until about 5pm my time. So... Enjoy!
I presently have three epilogue chapters planned, that might change if I get a good idea (or a good request). The first epilogue is almost entirely porn! (surprising right?)
I'm going to reiterate again - I don't usually write Hiccstrid, when I'm done with this story I'll move back to my requests pile, which currently has Valcup, Hicret and Eretstrid in it. I write what I'm asked for. If you want more future Hiccstrid, send me some good prompts and don't make an ass of yourself writing homophobic nonsense on your bisexual authors work.
Otherwise, enjoy the rest of this!
