You and Hiccup had finally gotten some time away. He'd offered a picnic on the beach to start to make up for everything that had happened. While you'd told him that he didn't have to keep feeling bad about it, there was no way you were going to turn his offer down.
So now, here you were. You were on the beach, side by side. It was just how you wanted it. Nobody else, just the two of you. You cuddled closer to him as he wrapped an arm around you. You sighed happily, enjoying his embrace.
"Finally, some alone time." Hiccup said to you. You nodded in agreement.
"No distractions, no interr-" Just as you were saying that, you heard a shout.
"Incoming!" You both looked up and dodged out of the way in shock and surprise.
"Oh, for Thor's sakes, what are you guys-!?" Hiccup cut off as he looked at the Twins who had quite literally crashed the picnic.
"Nope, not long enough." Ruff said to her brother.
"What about width?"
"Sorry, bro. Width and length, both too small."
"Oh, come on! What do we have to do to be the greatest around here?"
"All right, all right, will somebody please fill me in?" Hiccup asked as you both walked over.
"Well, you see, every dragon but ours has a talent. Something special that makes them famous." Tuff began.
"Hookfang's the hottest, Meatlug makes Gronckle Iron, Nightshade is the best at running, swimming, and climbing, and Stormfly's the fastest, but only when she eats chicken."
"Which still counts, even if it's only a technicality. And Toothless.. Ha. Come on. He's the cutest, obviously. Like a little puppy. Right, T? You feel me?" You giggled. Well, while I still think Nightshade is adorable, he has a point with Toothless being cute. "What about Barf and Belch? What makes them special? You know, famous?"
"They're the gassiest?" You offered, not really sure yourself.
"They have two heads?" Hiccup said next.
"Oh, come on! You're better than that." Tuff complained at the title.
"They have....two heads?" Hiccup didn't have any other ideas apparently.
"So, my oh-so-challenged friend, we're gonna set a record." Ruff told him.
"A record exclusively for the Zippleback."
"Like longest skidmark."
"Didn't really make the cut on that one, did you?" You asked.
"Your negativity will not deter us, (Y/n)." The hopped back on Barf and Belch. "Most consecutive barrel rolls in one flight. Go!" They tried it, but they fell off and their dragon crashed right on top of them.
"Ugh. What a rough one..." Ruff said from underneath the dragon. You and Hiccup were about to go help them when Fishlegs came.
"Hiccup, Terror Mail from Stoick." You both looked at each other.
"I guess the picnic will have to wait." You sighed, smiling a little. You had come to expect this more often than not.
"Yeah. I'm sorry. I promise that, as soon as I deal with this, we'll have our time together again." You smiled as you both hurried after Fishlegs to the Clubhouse. After you had all read the letter, Hiccup pulled out his map and you all got down to bussiness.
"This is where my dad found the Dragon Eye lens."
"And he wants you and (Y/n) to come alone. Doesn't that seem kind of weird?" Fishlegs stated. Just then, Snotlout and the twins came in.
