Ch. 14: Romantic Flight

(3rd Person POV)

The next afternoon Toothless and Windchaser awoke to the sound of shouting. They raised their heads and listened to the bickering.

"Hiccup, you can't just run from your problems! You have to face them!" Shelen was yelling.

"ME? I'm running from my problems? What about you? You have been running from your problems for years! You would never talk to anyone and you always spent your time in the woods!" Hiccup shouted back. There was a pause then the two humans entered the cove. Hiccup was carrying a fish basket. Shelen wasn't carrying anything. Hiccup then began to call for Toothless. The male dragon was about to go to his rider but was stopped by Windchaser. She shook her head and he nodded in understanding.

"Hiccup, this is different!" Shelen argued, "I'm not the next chief! I'm not supposed to be a hero! You are!"

"Well in case you haven't noticed I can't kill dragons! Alright? And I sure doubt you could either!"

"Well fine then! Go ahead and be a coward! In fact fly away, get away from here if you want to! I'm not stopping you!" Shelen shouted and walked out of the cove. Toothless went to Hiccup and looked up at his master questioningly.

Hiccup sighed and swung his leg over the saddle then sat down. Toothless spread his wings.

"We'll be back, and Shelen will too." Toothless told Windchaser. The dragoness nodded and the male took to the air. He scanned the ground for the human girl. She couldn't have gotten far on foot.

He suddenly spotted her. She was about to jump off a log and Toothless dove. Hiccup was too lost in his thoughts to notice until he heard a suprised yelp. The dragon rider looked down and saw dangling booted feet bellow. Toothless flew to a tree and set Shelen down where she sat on the flimsy branch.

"Hiccup?" She looked at him in confusion, "I thought you wanted me to leave!"

"Well, Toothless has other plans." He muttered. Toothless looked at her with concern.

"Well why are you here?" Shelen questioned.

"Because-" Hiccup began but Toothless had motioned with his head for Shelen to get on. She cautiously mounted the Night Fury and Toothless grinned with malichious myschief. He crouched into a leaping stance then took to the air at rapid speed.

"Ah! Toothless?" Hiccup cried as the dragon sped upward. Shelen began to fall backward but managed to hold on.

"Hook your belt to the other loop!" Hiccup instructed. The other rider quickly took the hook on her belt and latched it to the other ring on Toothless' saddle. She then hugged Hiccup from behind for something to hold onto. The dragon then began to dive into the water. Shelen screamed and Hiccup scolded. The dragon rose back up and began to spin.

"Toothless stop!" Hiccup begged.

"Not until you two make up!" Toothless declared silently.

"Alright fine! Why did you come after me! I thought you wanted me to leave you!" Shelen demanded.

"No! I don't want you to leave me!" Hiccup burst out.

"What?"

Toothless slowed down and glided slowly over the water.

"I-Im sorry..." Hiccup sighed, "I don't want you to leave. Not really. You're the only person that hadn't turned away." Hiccup explained. Shelen was speachless and Toothless smiled. He then climbed into the sky slowly. Entering a world of briliant colors and wispy cloud vapor.

Shelen stared in awe. She had seen clouds on flights but never ones like this. She held her arm up and felt the cool damp vapor on her finger tips. She wanted to laugh at the joy of flying like this. It was peacful and...romantic.

Romantic? Yes that was exactly what it was. But toward Hiccup? Why not? He's kind, funny, and smart. But also gentle and brave. Well not brave as in jump into a sea of dragons brave but, he had courage no other Viking had shown. He had befriended a dragon. He had ridden a dragon. Hiccup was brave. He was a tamer and a healer.

"This is amazing." Shelen sighed as she rested her head on his shoulder. "He's amazing." She pat Toothless on the side of his neck. The dragon looked back at them with a smile.
