A/N: Okay, I can't really come up with any ideas for my other story, so I'm just going to work on this one for a while.

And, there are a few spots that have narrator insertions. So if you don't like it, well, too bad. I won't change it.

…

His arms were comfortable around her waist. His chest was warm against her back. His lips were ticklish against her neck.

Astrid smiled. There weren't a lot of moments like this. Earlier this afternoon, she took Athena and Hiccup took Toothless, and they flew around the island; racing, fishing, or just having fun. By sunset, they flew to a cliff and their dragons napped while the teenagers sat next to each other watching the sun dip down the horizon, leaving pink and orange clouds. The wind blew softly, and the waves crashed below, creating Berk's natural lullaby.

When the sun disappeared, Hiccup managed to get Astrid into a small waltz. Though reluctant at first, she had fun dancing with him. He was surprisingly good at it, you know, with his prosthetic leg and whatnot. When she asked how he got so good at dancing, he said that he used to travel with his dad on trading ships and a woman taught him when he was younger. The thought of a smaller Hiccup fumbling to waltz with an older lady made Astrid chuckle.

After the dancing, Astrid walked toward the edge of the cliff to face the ocean and watch the waves. Quietly, Hiccup walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Thus, explaining the first three sentences of this chapter.

"What's it like out there?" Astrid asked suddenly.

"What do you mean?" Hiccup asked, confused.

Astrid rested her arms on Hiccup's. "What's it like…to travel to different places? I've been stuck on this hunk of stone all my life; I don't know what other places are like."

Astrid looked up at Hiccup with sad eyes. All her life, she'd heard stories of Vikings and sailors going around the world on ship. For years she has been fascinated with places she'd never been to, and that's a lot. But, she'd never tell anybody. Secretly, she'd go to Berk's library to look at books about different places. The librarian told Astrid that he wouldn't tell anyone that she had been sneaking in there, and she had been grateful. She wouldn't tell anybody because, well, reading isn't very Viking-like. Reading the Dragon Manual was different. Before, it told you strengths and weaknesses about the giant reptiles. That had been useful. But reading about different tribes, islands, and countries? Not so much.

I, the narrator, noticed two critical things.

One:

Astrid reads?

And two:

Berk has a library?

Let's get back to the story, please.

Hiccup let go of her and sat down next to the spot they were standing. He patted the ground beside him, motioning her to sit down as well. Astrid, who was a bit annoyed at Hiccup for letting go of her, sat in between his legs.

He smiled. "Well, it's really tiring at first. You know, sailing everywhere? You have to maintain the sails, fish when you run out of food, and try not to get seasick. Also, the bathrooms are pret-ty disgusting."

Astrid laughed, then leaned in closer to Hiccup's body. It was getting colder, but Hiccup always seemed to be warm. He put his arms around her.

"But," he continued, "Once you get to your destination, it's well worth the wait. You know the saying, 'It's the journey, not the destination'? For me, it was different. Since I was a little screw-up back then – not saying I'm not a screw-up now – the journey there was kinda hectic. Every time I go somewhere now, it's always exciting. You get to meet new people, see new sights, taste new foods, learn new cultures. It's really…fun, actually. I've always liked to go with my dad on trading ships."

When Astrid looked up, she saw that Hiccup had a faraway look in his eyes. 'He must really miss traveling,' she thought.

"When was the last time you traveled?" she asked.

"Two years ago," Hiccup answered. "I was twelve, and dad, Gobber, and I – just the three of us – sailed down south…west, I think. Came across this island with an interesting tribe…" he trailed off.

"What do you mean by interesting?" Astrid asked, curious.

"…well," Hiccup started, "It was an all-women tribe."

Astrid's eyes widened. "Really?"

"Really."

"Did you meet anyone…new?"

"No."

Astrid sighed with relief.

"I met up with an old friend."

Her face perked up to look at Hiccup.

"…who?" she managed to choke out.

"I met her when I was eleven. We both got captured by Romans and went to a Roman fort called Fort Sinister."

"Whoa…" Astrid muttered.

"I know right?" he said. "I saw my old enemy there, too. He teamed up with Rome's Fat Consul."

Astrid smiled. "And who may your old enemy be?"

"Well, at first, I didn't know it was him at first. He went as the Roman Prefect, whatever that means. His real name is Alvin the Treacherous. It's really hard to kill him. I wonder if he's alive to this day."

Astrid snuggled into Hiccup's embrace.

Wow. Didn't know she had it in her to do that.

Hiccup continued. "After a few weeks there was a huge Roman celebration. What did they call it? Saturn's day Saturday, I think. Then, they took us to a Roman amphitheater. There were storms everyday for the past few weeks, so the place was flooded. The girl and I were sent off on a ship into the amphitheater, right after they had a show concerning dragons – Sidewinders and Flashfangs. Soon, the water in the amphitheater was filled with hundreds – maybe thousands – of Sharkworms. It was then that my dad, Gobber, and most of the all-women tribe – by the way, they're called the Bog-Burglars – sailed into the amphitheater to save the two of us. They succeeded, but Alvin almost managed to get on board one of the ships. Unfortunately for him, the girl and I bashed on his hands – err, hand and hook – and he let go and fell into the Sharkworm-infested waters."

"Interesting," she said. "Two questions: How come nobody on Berk has ever heard of you getting kidnapped by Romans? And, you've tried to kill a man before? Didn't know you were that type of guy."

"For the first question: The reason is because my dad told me and the girl not to tell anyone what happened, for certain reasons that he did not explain. As for the second, well, the girl and I have been meeting at random times going on adventures and such. A few times, Alvin was there to make things worse, so we just tried to get rid of him. But, to be fair, he was really hard to kill!" He threw his hands up in the air in an annoyed manner.

"That's nice," Astrid said, grabbing his arms and putting them on her waist. She closed her eyes and rested her head on Hiccup's shoulders.

As Astrid drifted off to sleep, Hiccup started thinking about all his adventures that he had years ago. And maybe, just maybe, he'll take Toothless, Astrid, and the rest of his friends traveling to different places he has been to, and places he hasn't.

He kissed Astrid lovingly on the forehead.

But, for now, he'll just stay cozy with his beautiful girlfriend, since he just loves her so much.

A/N: Yeah, yeah, I know this is shorter than the previous chapters, but I couldn't come up with better ideas. And as for how Hiccup and the girl got saved (in case you didn't notice, this was Camicazi from the books), I just totally made that up on the spot.

P.S. Okay, people aren't giving me any flippin' ideas, and if you guys don't give me any ideas soon, I'll have to put off this story for a while so I can work on my other one. I don't care anymore whether it's in a review or PM, just give me ideas! And I'm not trying to be mean when doing this, it's just that if I don't get ideas for this story, I'll have more time for my other one.

P.P.S. If you do give me an idea, please make it something after the movie. Anything before or during it is just a little…awkward for me to write and not fluffy enough. I'm sorry.
