Astrid's POV
After dinner me and Hiccup get on our dragons and fly to a nearby island.

"Would you like to sit on the beach and watch the sunset or up on the hill and watch the sunset."

"Hill."

"Then right this way m'lady."

We get settled on the hill and watch the sun go down. At some point Hiccup uses the oldest trick in the book by yawning and then putting his arm around me. My first instinct was to pull away but instead I move closer to him.

We continue watching the sky as it turns yellow, then pink, then purple and finally black.

By the time we get back to the edge it is really late so we quietly sneak into the clubhouse to get something to eat. When we entered instead of finding it completely empty we find everyone sitting at the table talking about us not realizing we were there.

"So much for that snack," I whisper to Hiccup.

"Goodnight m'lady," he said and then we went back to our huts.
