A nudge to his ribs had  Hiccup jerk awake. His eyes flew open and for a second he found himself  confused as to where he was. A gentle breeze rustled through the leaves  of the tree he was in and he shivered, wrapping his arms around his body  to find that his tunic was missing. A distressed sound drew to his ear,  followed by another bump into his ribs and Hiccup turned around. Right.  This was Lilly, she saved him and now he was sleeping in her nest. A  small smile tugged at his lips as he recalled the wonderful day he spent  with her but it quickly faltered as he watched her tremble and whimper,  the occasional "No..." slipping past her lips.

Hiccup's heart sank at  seeing her like this, so unlike the happy, carefree girl he had met only  hours ago. Whatever she was dreaming of must surely be a nightmare.  Should he wake her? Worrying his lower lip, he reached out to touch her  shoulder.

"Shh, hey it's alright. It's just a dream." He whispered, shaking her gently.

Slowly Lilly's eyes  opened, she blinked, closed them and blinked again. "Wh-what...Hiccup?"  She breathed out, confused and Hiccup could see her try to calm her  breathing.

"You were crying out...did you have a bad dream?"

Lilly sat up, shaking  her head. "I...I don't know...it..." She paused, bit her lower lip, her  eyes brimming. "I don't hurt dragons..." Her jaw worked tightly around  the words and Hiccup watched her tremble. He shook his head, inched  closer to her.

"I never thought you  would. You should try to go back to sleep. Come here." He wrapped one  arm around her back and pulled Lilly down with him so that her head came  to rest on his chest. The intimacy of their position sent a pleasant  tingle through his body and he was thankful for the darkness, that way  Lilly wouldn't see him blush. She felt warm and soft and Hiccup could  smell the sea on her mixed with the scent of the many flowers that grew  on the  island and something else that he couldn't place - that was just  Lilly. His fingers rubbed over her arm of their own accord and he heard  Lilly whisper into the darkness. "Thank you."

Eventually the both of them drifted back to sleep.

At sunrise, Hiccup woke  again, this time not shivering but rather the opposite. Lilly's body  rested snugly against his own, her backside pressed right against his  crotch while his arm was still wrapped around her middle, touching her  bare skin as his tunic must have slid upwards during sleep. Heat curled  down his spine as his body came to attention at the proximity of her and  he quickly drew his hand away from her as if he got burned. Lilly made a  small sound in her sleep that sounded suspiciously close to Hiccup  and said youth had to bite his lower lip to keep himself from letting  out a groan at the sound of it. Fuck, this was bad. Nothing  worse than her waking up to find him in this condition. How should he  even explain?

Deciding that he needed  to be dunked in cold water, Hiccup pushed himself up slowly, cautious  not to make any noise while climbing down the tree.

Toothless raised his  head as Hiccup's foot touched the ground. He and Shadow were sleeping  below the tree, cuddled together and Hiccup couldn't help but smile at  the sight. Toothless made a questioning sound and Hiccup shrugged,  mouthing "I need a bath." The Night Fury tilted his head but didn't  bother to follow his rider as he made his way over to the small lake in  the middle of the clearing.

Hiccup hurried to strip  out of his pants before he carefully stepped into the water, trying his  best to hold onto the smooth rocks that surrounded the lake. He left his  prosthetic on this time, he didn't want to trip and draw Lilly's  attention to him. He submerged himself waist deep into the water and  looked down.

"Oh, come on..." He had  hoped that his erection would die upon touching the cool water but that  was not the case. His brain was too busy providing him with pictures of  Lilly, how warm her body felt against his, how single drops of water  trailed down her bare chest. If anything this pictures invaded his  brain, shutting out all other thoughts. It wouldn't go away on its own.

Hiccup bit his lip,  trying to hold in a groan as he touched himself. His head fell back  against the smooth rock and he closed his eyes, imagining what it would  feel like to touch her breasts and what sounds she would make at that.  He stroked himself harder, letting out a moan that he hadn't meant to.

Oh gods, what if Lilly woke up to find him like this?

He flushed but somehow  that thought only heightened his arousal and Hiccup panted out hard  breaths as he kept pumping himself fervently. It didn't take long until  he came and he whined with it, biting into the knuckles of his other  hand to hold in a moan of Lilly's name. Sweat dripped from his brow as  he sat there panting, waiting for his body to calm down before he  cleaned himself up and stepped out of the lake to get dressed. At least  he felt relaxed now.

It didn't last long though.

He was just pulling his pants back up when he heard Lilly call out for him.

"Hiccup! Hiccup?!" There  was a thud, the sound of footsteps coming closer and in the next moment  Lilly was rushing up to him. Her hair was tousled and her eyes wide.  Hiccup frowned as he moved to meet her halfway.

"Lilly, what's up?"

She glanced around nervously. "People... riding on dragons....they soon will find the island. You have to go, now."

"What, but why?" Hiccup  stared at her in shock for a moment. "If those people are riding dragons  then it must be my friends. I thought you would like to come with me?  And... and how do you know they're coming anyway? You were asleep..."

"Jali." She whispered, a sad look on her face "I would love to come but Shadow says it's not safe - no more people."

"But..."

A thump sounded from the  distant shore, cutting Hiccup off before he could form a sentence and  soon enough he could make out the sound of footsteps coming closer and  voices calling out his name.

Lilly's eyes widened and  she looked panicked, she spun around and rushed into the forest. Shadow  followed her in an instant, leaving a very puzzled looking Toothless  behind. He made a confused sound as he jumped to Hiccup's side.

"Lilly wait!" Hiccup  cried out, about to jump on Toothless' back and head after Lilly when he  heard his name being called right behind him.

"Hiccup! You're alive!"

He turned around to see Astrid was running up to him. Feeling nervous, he scratched the back of his neck.

"Oh... hi Astrid, uh hi  guys." He gave a slight wave but ended up groaning in pain, when he was  suddenly punched into his ribs. "Ouch! Whoa, Astrid, what was that for?" 

The blonde's face was  red with fury, her nostrils flaring. "What were you thinking? Did you  really believe you could sneak from the edge without telling anyone of  us? And then you got the nerves to not show up for two days!? We were  worried sick! And here you are perfect safe and sound on an island and  have built yourself a little camp! Are you serious Hiccup?!"

"Yeah sneaking off to  vacation in paradise without telling us, not cool Hiccup, uh uh, not  cool." Tuffnut was shaking his head slightly, his arms crossed in front  of his chest.

"But this place really  is awesome, look at this!" Ruffnut was picking up the big seashell Lilly  used as a cup, before smashing it on her brothers head. Tuffnut cried  out and Ruffnut snickered.

"Oh, I could get used to  this place." Snotlout exclaimed, taking in the surroundings. "You seem  to enjoy yourself here, huh Hiccup? Did we interrupt your plans for  another day off?"

"Wait! What? No guys,  you don't understand." Hiccup raised his arms in defense. "Toothless and  I went on a recon flight, but got shot down by dragon hunters when we  tried to save a Scauldron. We almost drowned... but there was a  girl...she rescued me and..." He tried to explain, but Snotlout cut him  off. 

"You think we believe  that? A girl just showed up out of nowhere in the big blue ocean, oh  yeah right Hiccup was saved by a little mermaid." He snorted, his arms  crossed tightly around his chest.

"Oh Thor! It's not like  that, she is ... different. You have to meet her and you'll understand."  Hiccup pinched at the bridge of his nose in frustration.

"Saying we believe you, where is the girl now?" said Astrid.

Hiccup sighed heavily. "She ran off into the forest... she was scared of you coming to her island."

"Well I guess we have to find her then."
