Joining Ryker on the shore, Ann did not see Viggo anywhere. "Hey, where is..." Ann asked as Ryker pointed at where Viggo was before he would speak up. "He is not feeling well. You better be careful." "I know, I know. Like I don't know my own husband. I'll talk to him." She walked over to where Ryker told her he would be.
Sitting on a log, Viggo stared down the ocean and didn't notice Ann walking up to him. "You okay, baby?" She asked as she stepped closer. He looked at her and gestured her to sit down next to him. "I'm so glad you made it." He held his forehead against hers, lips just two centimetres away from each other. "It was no problem at all to lose those muttonheads." She went in for the kiss first. Viggo held her tight to his body and even got her onto his lap. He needed her now.
Taking her time for him, they cuddled and she would comfort him. Hiccup had lived another day. The plan once again failed in killing him. Viggo knew time was slowly running out and his partners were defeated one by one. Upon that, the midnight sun was soon to come back. And that was a time Ann didn't look forward to.
She always struggled with the lack of sleep she gets in those two long, unforgiving and hallucinating weeks. She had seen almost anything on her own island on what can happen to a man's mind. Short of temper, people that just don't shut up when they're asked to, mood swings, paranoia and so much more. It drove her crazy when people kept on talking around her head. Especially when she wanted time for herself.
"Viggo. There is something I need to tell you about the midnight sun. I just can't stand the fact of not sleeping for too long. I'm getting headaches and get very short tempered because of it." Ann broke the silence after a few minutes.
"That's totally fine, my dear. Everyone has his perks with this period of the year. It's a shame I wasn't with you last year, but I will give you all the space you need. I will also look for a place where you can sleep in total darkness." He held her against his chest, supporting his head on hers. "You're always so sweet." She whispered to her. "Only for you, my beautiful blossom." Viggo kissed her forehead as he still held her close to his heart. They soon made their way back to the island.
Two days went by with no sleep in the first week of the midnight sun and Ann was already very agitated to everything and everyone. The headache what had developed in the last forty-eight hours made her stumble on her feet and frustrated easily about the slightest thing.
"Hey baby, easy now. You're rushing things too much lately." Viggo had a hold on her as she was trying to get free. "Keep your hands off me! You're only trying to hurt me for your own goods." She screamed as she resisted to his will.
"No, I'm not. We're married and there is nothing I would do to harm you. Unbelievable that this headache is bringing you to such insane ideas already. And that after just two days. You really need to rest already." Viggo struggled to keep her in tone and bring her to some place calmer. Even Ryker had to help him to get her to a cave in the other side of the island, there where the sun couldn't reach. Holding her tight against him and Ryker holding her down, they waited until her eyes finally fell shut. "Easy now, sis. We do this for your own good." Ryker said as she squirmed under his grip.
After some intense struggles to get her calm, Ann finally gave in to her exhaustion and fell asleep on Viggo's chest. "That was something I've never seen from her." Ryker panted actually from the effort he had to put into it. "Yeah, she does need her rest. We need to keep her here when asleep in these weeks and find an underground place where she can stay to rest." Viggo looked at her with the same love her always had for her.
Waking up after a few good hours, Ann felt better immediately. The headache had calmed down and decreased to a low sting every now and then. "I'm sorry I have been so..." Ann tried to apologize, but Viggo silenced her as he kissed her lips. "Don't be. You can't do anything about it. The headache was driving you nuts and that resulted in that behaviour." Viggo lifted her chin to kiss her soft lips once again. He rested his head on hers to show her that he didn't care about what effects she would have in this time of year.
