Hiccups P.O.V

I walked away slowly careful not to scare him, I turned and walked in the direction of my house and heard footsteps behind me, I thought it was Toothless so turned round quickly. It was the Skrill his eyes wide and next to him Toothless, Toothless had the babies in his bag again.

"Hey guys" I said softly. The Skrill (help I need his name) slowly crept up to me and nudged my arm, I put my arm on his head and stroked him.

"You're a lot friendlier than I thought you were" I admitted. He pushed me over to Toothless and nuzzled Toothless' saddle.

"Do you like it?" I asked and in return I got a slow nod. I walked over to the saddle and sat on it, I examined it to see if it was still ok. I then kicked Toothless' side gently and he leaped into the air, it felt so good to feel the wind against me making my hair go wild. Suddenly Toothless started playing up he swerved side to side and the up and down.

"Easy bud what are you doing?" I asked, I knew he was just playing though. He smoothed out and I relaxed letting go of his saddle just sitting there, he zoomed upwards making me fall back out of the saddle.

TOOTHLESS!" I yelled hoping he would come to my aid. Just then I saw a flash of... Purple? And I was caught I turned around and realised I was on the back of the Skrill.

"Woah, thanks" I said carefully patting his side. Toothless flew next to us and I knew exactly what was going on.

"Oh so you played up so he could catch me?" I asked they both nodded as if it were nothing to worry about.

"Haha so you just wanted to be ridden?" I asked the Skrill. He nodded and dived down, I leaned forward making it more aerodynamic, he finally landed outside my house on Berk. I got off and patted them both, I knew I could now trust him, I just could.

"I know what I'm going to do tonight" I said grinning a big cheesy grin.

Later that night

I Sketched out a saddle while looking at the Skrill, he was eating out of the automatic feeders. I had finally finished the design and started measuring out the Skrill, I would scratch a certain place and hope would fall around looking so relaxed.

I gathered strong leather of different types and then metal, this saddle was made so that I could ride him with my peg leg.

"What ye be doin'" asked Gobber squeezing through the small door and into my workshop.

"Making a saddle" I stated.

"For Toothless?" He asked raising a bushy eyebrow.

"No" I said.

"Who for then?"

"For the Skrill" I said. There was silence for a moment.

"HICCUP YOUR CRAZY!" He shouted.

"No no no no, I'm not crazy, earlier he wanted me to ride him so long story short I actually got on his back" I said arguing my point.

"Ok just don't say I didn't warn ye when ye end up his lunch" he said sarcastically. He walked off and I gathered some metals. I worked for hours and hours until dawn it was perfect. (Sorry for the short chapter just thought you deserved at least one chappy)
