Chapter 5

The sun was rising on berk, but everyone seems too ignore it, well.. Not everyone. A small viking lad and a small viking girl is awakened by the rays of the sun seeping into the windows of the room and grazing their eyes ever so faintly. Just kidding.. The sun didn't wake the two up, a big black toothless dragon did. Toothless giddily raises his head, for it was a new day which means another day where he can fly with his bestfriend, he moves his body especially the part where hiccup was sleeping on and stood up. Hiccup moves to the side trying to still grasp the moving tail he so comfortably used as a body pillow. Hiccup misses his target and ends up sliding to the floor, toothless lets out a small huff, for waking his bestfriend up was always a tedious task in the morning, he had to thump his whole house just to get him on his feet.. But with heather it was a different story as soon as she heard the noise they were making she sits up and lets out a morning yawn to greet the day and apparently toothless..

Heather: (yawn) ooh hey.. Morning toothless

Toothless flashes another gum smile her way, but changes his view to his rider soundly sleeping..

Heather: (giggle) what's the matter boy? having trouble getting him up?

Toothless: (nods)

Heather: so Hiccup's a heavy sleeper huh?

Toothless: (nods)

Heather: hold on.. let me try something..

Heather gently approaches hiccup, carefully making her way to his face, making sure he was still sound asleep before she did what she was thinking. Toothless on the other hand smiles at heather and tilts his head to the side, a sign of confusion and curiosity towards her movements...

Heather: hiccup? It's sunrise.. Time to get uup..

Hiccup: uh.. K.. Jus.. 5 minuts..

Heather was infront of hiccups face she can clearly feel the warmth of hiccups breath, see all of his freckles, even the faint scar above his jaw line was completely visible. She takes an inch closer and then pinches his nose cutting off air flow to his sinuses. It takes a few seconds before hiccup snorts and wakes up in an out of breath manner, panting in surprise

Hiccup: (panting) wha? Huh?

Heather: (laugh) mornin hiccup

Hiccup: uh? Mornin.. Wh-why would you do that?

Heather: hm? Do what?

Hiccup: you know.. That thing with my nose?

Heather: oh that.. that's just something my mom did to wake me up.. (Laughs)

Hiccup: ook, did your mom laugh at you too.. or am I an exception?..

Heather: yup, she always does, especially after seeing my face.. (Laugh) I can finally see why (laugh)

Hiccup: so your family enjoys choking people.. Not really the most friendly bonding activity buut hey, at least you're not killing dragons anymore..

Heather: no, trust me it's a lot funnier when your not on the receiving end

Hiccup: yeah, I'm not sure choking people for a wake up call is such a good idea.. Especially for vikings.. You know sharp axes, big fists, soft face..

Heather: you're not choking them, you're just squeezing their noses real tight so they couldn't breath for a while.. It's fun trust me

Hiccup: that kinda sounds like choking to me.. Maybe I'll stick with a peaceful good morning instead

Heather: suit yourself, you don't know what you're missing (giggle)

Hiccup: I think I'll survive (maybe on astrid..)

Toothless attacks hiccup from his sleeping stance, licking his face several times before hiccup finally gets him off

Hiccup: augh, ok ok.. good to see you to bud..

Heather: (laughs) he looks excited..

Hiccup: ok bud settle down, (laugh) he just wants to go for a flight that's all.. Not now bud we have to help heather first..

Toothless whimpers and looks at hiccup then heather

Heather: why not?

Hiccup: huh?

Heather: I can wait (smile)

Hiccup: really?

Heather: besides I wouldn't want toothless pouting all day.. (Pats toothlesses head)

Toothless flashes a gum smile at hiccup

Hiccup: that's great! Thanks heather! Let's go bud

Hiccup latches on to toothless without even putting on his riding gear first and jumps off of the window, heather after seeing hiccup take off from the window, rushes to its side trying to catch a glimpse of the dragon but she was too late there wasn't a trace of the night fury left in the sky. She just sighs in disappointment..

Heather: hmph those two really are a perfect match..

Hiccup: uh thanks..

Heather upon hearing a reply, searches for the speaker

Hiccup: up here

Toothless: auurrh!

Heather: hiccup!? I thought you already left?

Hiccup: nah

Heather: what are you doing up there?

Hiccup: what're You doing Down there?

Heather: huh?

Hiccup: what're you waiting for? Hop on

Heather: you want me.. to join you?

Hiccup: no, I want you to jump off the window and fall, ofcourse I want you to join us.. I can't just leave you here all alone now (smiles)

Heather smiles and jumps off the window, toothless catches her on his back right behind hiccup

Heather: thanks hiccup (smiles)

Hiccup: hm? Don't thank me.. it was toothlesses idea

Toothless: auurrh!

Heather: thank you toothless

Toothless: auurrh!

Hiccup: and he says the ride costs 1 cod per hour, so better pay up (laughs)

Toothless: aauurrrh!

Heather: (laugh) well, aren't you a greedy dragon (pats toothlesses head)

They flew around berk, hiccup felt the need to take heather on another tour around berk. If she really was going to live there in the future, she should know the ins and outs of the whole island, the roads and landmarks even the secret passage's if she was ever lost or in danger. The flight went on smoothly they past the docks, ravens point, the cove, backboulder beach, Odin's foot, dragonscale point, iceberg mountain.. It took them only an hour to circle berk, but that also meant they were an hour late for dragon training, heather's dragon training..

Hiccup: hey, uuh.. Heather.. Um.. Do you need toothless to um.. slow down?

Heather: hm? No, not really..

Hiccup: oh ok.. Cause you're kinda.. Holding on too tight..

Heather: huh? Oh! Sorry I jus-aaw (let's go)

Heather let's go too fast and too strong causing her to stumble dangerously off toothlesses side, but just as she was getting close to the edge hiccup pulls her arms towards him causing her chest to hit his back rather forcefully..

Hiccup: woah, you ok there?

Heather realizes her position, (she was as close as astrid was on their first romantic flight) and slowly lets go of Hiccup's side creating much needed space between them..

Heather: (awkward cough) I'm good, thanks

Hiccup: that was close (wipes off sweat from forehead)

Heather: sorry a-about that (awkward laugh) I guess I'm still not used to dragon riding just yet..

Hiccup: (awkward laugh) you're not that bad at it.. I mean you handled stormfly pretty well..

Heather: don't remind me.. my back's still a little sore from Astrid's throw (laugh)

Hiccup: well, you did sorta steal her dragon soo..

Heather: I know, I'm not saying I didn't deserve it..

Hiccup: I'm kidding (laugh) don't take it too personally, that's just how astrid is with everyone (laugh)

Heather: even you?

Hiccup: especially me (laugh)

Heather: really? (Laugh)

Hiccup: trust me.. My day isn't complete without astrid punching my arm at least once (laugh)

Heather: really, she hits you that often?

Hiccup: yeah, and for the weirdest reasons!

Heather: (laugh) like what..

Hiccup: well, there was that time when she punched me for "kidnapping her" but-

Heather: she kinda has the right to punch you if you- You kidnapped her!?

Hiccup: (awkward laugh) uh yeah, it's a long story.. (Tells her the story)

Heather: wow.. A lot really happened between you two huh? (Looks at hiccup)

Hiccup: yeah.. (Smile)

Heather: You two must be really close by now?..

Hiccup: I guess so..

Heather: close enough to be a couple? (Laugh)

Hiccup: (coughing then awkward laugh) wh-what!? Me and a-astrid that's crazy, w-why would she e-even-

Heather: so you two aren't-

Hiccup: No! Uhh, I mean.. Well, she's a close friend.. Really close friend..

Heather: and you don't like her?

Hiccup: (coughs again) Wh-what? What kind of-

Heather: so you do like her? (Laugh)

Hiccup: of course I l-like her, she's my friend.. (Looks at the sky in different directions)

Heather: I meant Like her, like her.. (Smiles)

Hiccup: uuh.. (Looks at toothless "save me")

Toothless: aauurgh!

Hiccup: toothless! What was that bud?.. Oh you're absolutely right (awkward laugh)

Heather: Is that a yes or a no?

Hiccup: it's a "I don't know" (awkward laugh) besides don't you wanna hear what toothless said.. (Awkward laugh)

Heather: (sigh) fine hiccup, (laugh) what did he say?

Hiccup: (phew I owe you one bud..) Uuh he said we should get back.. Aaand.. Start yourr- (thinking)

Heather: dragon trai-

Hiccup: Dragon training! Yes! dragon training.. Dragon training! Oh Gods, I completely forgot about it, what time is it?

Heather: I don't kno-

Hiccup: Oh God's, I'm soo dead..

Heather: is something wrong? Why are you acting all-

Hiccup: Astrid's gonna have my head for sure, let's go bud..

Heather: hicc-aaaw!

Toothless dashes with great speed towards the direction of the academy leaving heather at a frenzied state, sure she's getting used to toothlesses flying but not his full speed, nope..

Heather: HICCUP W-WAIT!

Hiccup: sorry heather, just hold on for a little while..

Heather takes hiccups words to heart and held on for dear life for if she didn't she'd surely be swept off by the great winds toothless wings were creating..
