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."
