My version of their very first things... enjoy!

Their first real kiss is kind of accidental. Well, it starts with a little accident. They're flying back from Dragon Island after checking some new nests and they want to stop by the cove on the way back and just before landing Toothless unintentionally cuts in front of Stormfly, who suddenly stops in the air and Astrid falls from her back. The fall is not a big one, roughly 10 feet but she ends up in a muddy puddle, face first.

After a much safer landing Hiccup rushes to her and there's nothing wrong with the girl, she's just absolutely furious, raging with anger. She immediately starts to punch him really hard but she looks kind of hilarious with all the wet smudge on her face and her ever growing wrath.

Hiccup cannot help and his quiet chortle quickly turns into a loud laugh, maddening the fierce girl even more. The hitting becomes even harder, actually really painful and she is cursing, calling Hiccup all sorts of nasty names.

The boy wants to end all his sufferings but instead of fighting back – well, Astrid is a girl after all and it wouldn't be nice – he grabs her shoulders hard and brings her close enough so he can press his eager lips on her filthy mouth.

This comes as a huge surprise and she forgets to resist and unintentionally opens her mouth and let's the guy's hungry tongue inside. After 10 seconds of the most amazing feeling she has ever felt up to this point in her life, she remembers that she is actually quite angry, pushes away the lust fueled lad and gives him the biggest slap of his and her life.

His ears are still ringing when she actually jumps on him making them fall into the tall grass and her lips are all over his and an a seemingly endless make-out session starts because even though what he did was an utterly rude and outrageous thing, she is head over heels for him, and now their carefully guarded kiss monster is finally out of it's cage.

Hiccup enjoys the situation but at some point he thinks that it'd be wiser to stop this maelstrom of smooches because he doesn't want Astrid to feel just how happy his manhood is about having a hot girl all over him. But before he could nicely move her away from his telltale privates she bites his sensitive lower lip really really hard.

The bite draws blood from his lip and makes his eyes water, but he doesn't mind it at all, it's so Astrid and he likes her as she is. But she is a few steps away now, quickly jumps on her Nadder's back and leaves him without saying good bye. His sore lip aches for days but whenever he licks the bruise, he remembers how he got it and it makes him grin every time.

They meet at training the next day and somehow he's confident enough to think that they will be the last ones to leave. He feels a bit cheated when she leaves with the others and starts to check the locks of the cages when suddenly she is right behind him and when he turns to face her she softly places her fingers on his bruised lip. He gives a little peck on his index finger, barely noticeable. She stands on tiptoes now, because he is slightly taller than her and she places her hand on his nape and brings him closer for a less lustful more gentle third kiss, which is quickly followed buy a fourth and a fifth one. Hiccup's lip is on fire but he doesn't mind it at all because being this up close and personal with Astrid Hofferson worth all the pain in the world.

This kissing thing quickly becomes a habit and they grab every opportunity to practice.

It's also quite an exciting thing because even though they never actually discuss it, neither of them is ready to share their newly found passion with the world. So they sneak and hide and no one but their dragons are the witnesses to their quickly budding love.

Even though both of them are quite careful, Hiccup is the one who almost gives away their secret. He gives out a muffled laugh when Ruffnut teases Astrid about being a 'kiss virgin' but when Astrid looks at him with narrow, angry eyes he somehow manages to turn the laugh into a clumsy cough.

Ruff seems suspicious at first but Snotlout appears and she runs to him to give a totally disgusting sloppy kiss on his mouth, because they're engaged now and disturbingly enough they are really into PDA. Astrid steps closer to Hiccup and punches him on the upper arm, not really hard, because she never hits him hard anymore and when she drops her hand down, Hiccup touches her wrist softly.

They lock eyes and if Snot and Ruff aren't occupied with licking each other's face off, they'd absolutely notice the fire burning between their friends.

Hiccup wishes he could say something but his lips are sealed.

They have to depart at this point because there's going to be a spring celebration in the Meade Hall and the girls agreed to help with the decorations. Hiccup knows that his father really takes pride in these gatherings and they are really important for him, so he feels ashamed that it hasn't even started yet and he's already thinking about how he can sneak out with Astrid when no one notices...

The celebration is turns out to be really great and even though Hiccup rather have a party of two, he actually quite enjoys himself up until the point when he can't have a decent conversation with anyone because the Berkians are just too wasted. Well, he and Astrid are just a little bit tipsy but he hasn't talked to her yet because he wants to save the best chat for last, preferably in private.

They sit next to each other but she's busy chatting with Ruff's mom and he's talking to Fishlegs. Suddenly and totally unexpectedly Astrid grabs his thigh under the table which makes him jump and he clumsily spills his mead all over Fishlegs. Astrid looks at him with seemingly worried eyes and says something about him probably being a little bit too drunk to stay.

He refuses the accusation but when Astrid insists on walking him home he finally understands what she means. He even starts to behave a little drunk and stumbles over a couple of things and people on their way out. Astrid shakes her head seeing his really bad acting attempts, but smiles when Hiccup makes the 'confused Hiccup' face at the doorway and pushes him out.

When they're out of sight, she grabs his hand whistles to her dragon. Stormfly appears from seemingly nowhere and she jumps on her and Hiccup quickly follows the girl, quite amused by the fact that she was too planning on getting away from the party with him well in advance.

They go to a view point of Berk and they hide under a large silvery leafed tree. It's a full Moon so everything is very bright and for long minutes he only cups her face and just looks into those eyes that reflect the orangey planet up above them. For granted, he is a little bit tipsy but he cannot tear his eyes away from her face and almost says something very serious, much sooner than he should say it.

Luckily, he bites his lip and never says a word instead he starts to move his thumb over Astrid's lips. It's kind of ticklish but it's okay because the girl is sort of petrified - for the first time in her life she thinks that Hiccup is so painfully handsome and she wants to scan his face as long as possible, memorizing all his freckles and features, so when he is not around and she closes her eyes, thinking about him, she could recall his face as clearly as possible.

Hiccup stops ghosting her mouth with his thumb and puts his hand on her waist moving a little bit closer to her. They start to kiss and this time it feels different. It has a depth. A meaning. And it totally feels awesome. Astrid feels awesome, he thinks happily and an utterly bold idea comes into his mind. Normally he wouldn't be brave enough to try it, but he had enough mead tonight and it makes him a lot more self-confident. Yeah, that, plus he remembers ogling her erm... chestal regions all day during training. It's not something he's proud of but he's a man and it's not his fault that his eyes are sometimes glued to her boobs, especially since he noticed that they got bigger in the past half year... The worst case is when the training involves some jumping and... Gods, they're bouncing in front of his curious eyes.

So he feels that he has to touch them, now or never, even if it means getting a severe beat up. But he cannot resist the temptation, so his fingers start to snake up slowly and softly. When he timidly reaches the points of interest, he feels that Astrid's tongue stops in his mouth and he's almost on the verge of a heart attack expecting some hard blows and two broken wrists but after two seconds, the girl continues the kiss and it seems she is cool with his explorations...

When roughly an hour and several more kisses and touches later he gets to bed, he cannot stop smiling. Actually, he giggles like some teenage girl and wishes to brag about feeling Astrid Hofferson's tatas, but of course he'd never do that, because he respects her very much.

And probably he is already in love with her a little bit.

Okay, guys, don't hesitate and tell me whaddya think. :-)
