Hey guys! Some people where saying I should do some more one shots for HTTYD so, I've decided to start this, just some random one shots about life in Berk after The Battle with Green Death. I'll be updating pretty randomly, basically whenever an idea pops in my head. This one's kind of short but I hope you like it!
Toothless watched Hiccup lazily as he worked on one of his many projects. Normally he'd be trying to get Hiccup to go out and fly with him, but the fire was so warm and he just was feeling lazy. Most other dragons preferred to go out and play with the other dragons when there riders where to busy to fly, but not Toothless, he wasn't must of a social dragon.
Most dragons enjoyed people and dragon's company alike, but Toothless wasn't much like the other dragons, the only company he liked was that of Hiccup and his mate Astrid and of course her dragon Cloud, well sometimes. He didn't mind Cloud as much as the other dragons because all they seemed to want to do was take his Hiccup away.
After the battle with Green Death, dragons started flocking to Berk and making it there home, hoping to never have to return to that horrible island again. Toothless didn't mind them coming to Berk, no, that wasn't the problem. The problem was that many of the dragons wanted Hiccup to be the one to ride them. They would always rush over to him and follow him around hoping to be able to become his new dragon. A particularly bold Nightmare even tried to pick Hiccup up and fly off with him, and Toothless did not like that one bit.
The worst part was, Hiccup wasn't particularly angry, he scolded the dragon and such, but he still continued to help the other dragons find riders. He took care of them; he scratched them in that one special spot and kept company with them. The other dragons get to spend more time with his Hiccup then he even did, and it upset him, a lot. But at the same time, he knew Hiccup would always come back, he'd only ever willingly ride Toothless, and no other dragon got the privilege! And no human had the right to ride Toothless, only his Hiccup could do that. Hiccup belonged to Toothless and Toothless only, end of story.
But, if Toothless was honest with himself, most of the time, it seemed like Toothless belonged to Hiccup. Sure, Toothless could make Hiccup abandon his work and go flying, but that was only if Hiccup really wanted to go. No, Toothless was putty in his Viking but not Vikings hands, and he found that he really didn't mind. There was once a time where he would have laughed at the thought, metaphorically speaking, of being someone's pet. But, with his Hiccup, he was more then a pet, he was a companion, a friend, and Toothless found he liked that even better then being a solitary beast.
Despite all of that though, he still preferred to either be alone or with his Hiccup. He couldn't stand the other dragons company, to him they seemed like simple minded animals, they were happy with a few fish and a scratch behind there ears. Sure, Toothless didn't mind those things, but he didn't cave into Hiccups demands by just those things! He was smarter then those mindless dragons!
"Hey buddy" Hiccup greeted Toothless, interrupting Toothless's musings, "bet you're getting bored just sitting there." He then bent over and scratched Toothless right behind hid ear in that perfect spot. Well, Toothless only submitted when he really wanted to, it was really nice to be scratched back there. Toothless let out an approving growl.
"Yea…it does get pretty dull here…I'm sure no one would miss us if we took a little ride. What do you think?" Toothless was on his feet and out the door quick as lighting, Hiccup limping behind him. Hiccup threw of his apron and grabbed his harness, and soon they where soaring. Toothless didn't particularly like the company of most people, but he will always love being with his Hiccup, no exceptions.
