Why Me? (Older Hiccup and Reader)

Chapter 60

Your POV

"Okay, its getting late, everyone let's just go to bed and discuss the rest of this tomorrow alright." I order. Everyone nods and heads towards their hut. I walk with Hiccup back to his hut. 

"Hiccup, do you want me to stay with you or do you need some alone time to think?" I ask him.

"Uh, I need to be alone right now if you don't mind." He says. 

"Okay, I'll see you in the morning okay." I say kissing his cheek. I start to walk out the hut until I remember something.

"Oh and Hiccup." I start to say. He turns towards me.

"Don't stay up, you need your sleep, just sleep on it." I say with a smile, He smiles back and nods. I walk out of the hut and head towards mine so I can sleep. 

Hiccup's POV

After (y/n) left, I started to think about the riddle I knew I can't just sleep on it.

"Oh, dad, I wish you was here right now." I say out loud. Toothless comes over to me and starts to croon. 

"I know bud. You go on to bed I'll be fine." I say to him. He looks at me for a second then heads over to his spot and goes to sleep. I grab my family's history book from my chest and start to go through it. I have two copies of this, one here and one back home. I look through it and see if I can find this 'king' who was overthrown and his son took over with the total opposite 'ideas' than his father. 

I go back all the way to the second generation of the Haddocks to find that Jarkus Haddock had been overthrown. For his ideas of dragons being friends. The village turned against him and look toward his son. His son was Smitus Haddock. Smitus had the total opposite idea of dragons. Or so they thought. I think back on the riddle. It had said that a chief with the heart of a chief and the soul of a dragon can find this 'Palace' it talks about. 

So, if the riddle says that the 'king' who was overthrown helped those 'creatures of the shadows' and his son thought the same, but had to hid it to keep their secret. Then that means the son had to keep the secret until someone else came into a new generation of Haddock to change the village's mind. 

I look over at Toothless and see he's sound asleep. 

'Heart of a Chief, Soul of a Dragon.' 

*yawn*. I guess I better go to bed. I don't want (y/n) to find out that I stayed up a little more than I should have. 

I went to bed and went to sleep the moment my head hit the pillow. 

Next Morning

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" I jerk awake from my sleep. I heard a scream. I run out to the edge of my hut to see that its just Snoutlout. Hookfang had set his butt on fire again. I groan and head back over to my desk. I put my armor on and feed Toothless who was rudely awaken as well. 

*A Speed Stinger Call*

"Speed Stingers. Come on bud let's see where it came from." I say. He gobbles the rest of his fish down and we take off. We fly a little further until we come upon a Alpha Speed Stinger. It's got a gash in it's side. To the side I see another Speed Stinger, but its not moving. When we land beside the Speed Stinger I see the Alpha's pack was watching us. That dead Speed Stinger must have challenged the Alpha. I slowly approach the Speed Stinger. With my hand raised. I look at him and he looks at me. That's when I realize it's the Speed Stinger we helped few years back. I stroke his snout and the pack comes out. I lift him up and put him of the back of Toothless. I hope on and Toothless croons at the Speed Stingers, they all croon back and we start to fly low so that the others can follow. 

When we are back at Dragon's Edge I see the gang all huddled up at the Dome and everyone was talking all at once to (y/n). She tried to just them up just gave up. She gave (d/n) signal and (d/n) roared. Everyone shut up then. 

I smile when I saw that she smiled at her success. I signal all the Speed Stingers to hide and same goes with Toothless. 

"Guys, I don't know where Hiccup went alright. I may be his girlfriend, but I'm certainly not his babysitter. He's a grown man who can do what he wants, I can't stop him from exploring and besides he must have went off to where that Speed Stinger call must have been is my bet." She stated. 

"Then what do we do?" Astrid asks. Everyone starts to talk again and (y/n) just ponders. 

"Fishlegs." She goes to say. But everyone is talking to loud. I see she gets irritated. 

"FISHLEGS!!!" She shouts. Everyone looks at her especially Fishlegs.

"What did the sound of the Speed Stinger sound like? Did it sound hurt or...." She questioned.

"Oh, yes, it did actually." He answer. 

"Okay, knowing Hiccup, he would have went after it." I smile knowing she was right.

"Fishlegs, you and Astrid start getting medical attention ready for when he gets back. The twins can go get water. Snoutlout, your with me, let's go see if Hiccup needs help." She orders.

"Okay, sweet cheeks lets do this this." Snoutlout says in a flirty tone. 

"In your dreams Snoutlout, I will not hesitate to put you to sleep." She threatens.

"I'd like to see try." He taunts. Then (y/n) jabs him in the neck at a certain nerve that made him fall asleep. 

"Hookfang take care of that thing. Me and (d/n) will look for Hiccup on our own." She orders. 

I decide to show myself then.

"Looking for me?" I say. She jumps and barely misses my face with a punch. I look at her like she's crazy and she lets out a sigh.

"Gods Hiccup where have you been?" She exclaims.

"After a hurt Speed Stinger. You betted right by the way." I say. Realization hit her hard by her face expression.

"You was here the entire time!!" She exclaims.

"Yes, and you are a great leader." I say kissing her forehead. 

I walk over to Fishlegs huts with he Speed Stinger on Toothless's back with (y/n) holding my hand.

"I hate you right now." She says. I can tell she's holding back a smile.

"You love me." I say kissing her cheek.
