Snotlout sighed nervously, foot tapping rapidly as he glanced around, hoping, hoping, hoping for Ruffnut to appear in the Great Hall soon. The sound of the Great Hall's doors caused Snotlout to look up from the special thing he was planning to give to Ruffnut.

His face fell. It was just Fishlegs, most likely here to grab some late night snacks or something. Snotlout sighed exaggeratedly, so much so that Fishlegs leapt in the air with a high pitched scream. Snotlout snickered quietly as he smacked his palm to his forehead in exasperation.

"Don't scare me like that!" Fishlegs snapped as he shakily walked over to Snotlout, an expression of mild anger on his face.

"Then stop being a wimp Fishlegs," Fishlegs growled at this, "and you wonder why Ruffnut only likes me." Fishlegs' face flushed red as he stared daggers into Snotlout, who ignored him entirely.

Fishlegs gave up after a while, knowing that what Snotlout said was true…in sorts… "Well 'night Snotlout. Don't forget that your father wants you to help Stoick tomorrow."

"Ugh… Don't remind me," Snotlout said, a sigh of anger escaping his lips as he thought of how his father had bitched to him over and over again about getting in the good graces of his uncle yada yada yada. It seriously pissed him off sometimes.

Snotlout heard Fishlegs open the Great Hall doors and just as Fishlegs was about to leave him seemed to remember something. "Hey. Snotlout. What's with the drawing?" Fishlegs voice dripped with that same obnoxious, infuriating, curious, know-it-all tone that Snotlout hated, so, so, much.

"None of your business, Fish," Snotlout snapped, sending Fishlegs an icy glare that clearly stated for him to back the hell off. Fishlegs held his hands up in surrender as he backed out the doors of the Great Hall, muttering obscene words.

Snotlout suddenly perked up when he heard Fishlegs's voice squeak up, "Oh… Woops. Sorry Ruffnut! I didn't see you- OW! What was that for!" Snotlout smiled as he heard Ruffnut say something, to quiet for Snotlout to discern, but nonetheless caused him to smile uncontrollably.

There was a little bit more arguing from the entrance of the Great Hall, to which Snotlout just keot smiling about, then finally he heard the door slam shut so hard the table wobbled.

Snotlout moved his drawing to his side, purposely covering it as he .scooted over on the bench for Ruffnut to sit next to him.

As Ruffnut sat next to him she cast him a curious glance. "My brother told me you wanted me to come here. Why?" Ruffnut's eyes flickered over his face, but she seemed to notice nothing suspicious and with a small smile she scooted closer to him, hands reaching for his hair, and slowly, playfully she began braiding his hair.

Snotlout winced as Ruffnut pulled at his hair a little rougher than he thought truly necessary but then again, he never was one to fully enjoy it when Ruffnut would braid his hair. It was so...unviking-like for him, but if it made her happy then whatever.

"Ruff…" Snotlout pleaded as his girlfriend pulled his hair so hard that she drug him backwards into her chest. He looked up into her eyes, those beautiful sky-blue eyes that Snotlout could swear he could stare at forever and lose his soul inside them.

Ruffnut smiled at him mischievously, as she placed a hand on his chin, slowly twisting him to face her and with a smile, one of the kinds that she only ever showed him, she gently kissed him on the mouth.

Snotlout's eyes widened in shock, his body tensing rigidly as he stared at Ruffnut, but slowly, happily he returned the favor to Ruffnut, kissing her slowly, which was very unusual for him to do. After a awhile the two broke apart, Ruffnut with a gleeful smile on her face and Snotlout with an equally shocked expression still clouding his eyes.

"Now, my little munchkin. Why did you call me here?" Ruffnut said, a slightly more serious expression on her face this time.

"Uh… I wanted to give you this," Snotlout said sheepishly as he handed Ruffnut the drawing he had been working on for almost five hours that day.

Ruffnut slowly took it from him, a bewildered expression on her face as she took in the drawing, and all the effort put into it.

"This is… I don't have the words for it, sweetie… It's-" Ruffnut didn't finish her sentence and instead looked down at her boyfriend and swiftly, demandingly, she wrapped him in a hug. Snotlout's body shook from shock as he stared at Ruffnut's arms wrapped around his frame, hugging him so tenderly it sort of actually freaked him out.

"Uhm… Ruff…" Ruffnut unlooped her arms around Snotlout as he watched her nervously. "So you like it?"

Ruffnut scoffed, at which Snotlout's heart fell immediately, "Like it? I love it, babe! I know drawing isn't your strongest suit but that's perfect really!" Snotlout's eyes widened in surprised happiness as Ruffnut picked up his sketch and slowly looked over it again.

"See. Look here Snotty. You put so much detail into Barf. How though? I mean you are so busy these days what with your father's demands and stuff… Where did you ever find time to do this?" Ruffnut said as she gazed at the drawing of her looking into Barf's eyes, both dragon and herself with a happy, soulful look to their eyes.

Snotlout shrugged sheepishly. "I uh… Snuck out whenever I wasn't busy and went to my room to draw that. It took me five hours and I kept screwing up… I'm such an idiot, Ruff. I'm so sorry. I KNOW I messed you up in the picture… I'm not good at drawing, especially not humans."

Ruffnut punched Snotlout in the arm gently, shooting him an exasperated look. "Snotlout stop. I love it. OK? I don't care if it's not perfect, it's amazing either way. You are such a kind, thoughtful person Snotty. I don't care what you say. You don't need to be perfect, you don't need to be chief, or even second in command. I just want this version of you. The happy, adorable, amazingly sweet guy that you are. Gods was I right in picking you Snotty."

Ruffnut brushed Snotlout's hair away from his face as she sighed happily. "You are the best."

Snotlout only smiled, a deep, beautiful smile unlike any he had smiled for years.

"Thank you Ruff… But I think you are the most amazing person out there. No person, no woman ever, could be better than you."

I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH I FREAKING NEEDED THIS OH MY GODS.
