Dragons: The New Chief

Chapter 31: A Little Sweat and Blood

The next morning, the morning after, the newlyweds still slept while the terrible terrors screeched at the top of their lungs. The couple lay on the bed in the dark, musky smelling room. Hiccup laid on his back with his mouth agape, one arm slung around Astrid's bare back, who was laying on her stomach on top of Hiccup with her head laid on his chest and her arms up by his head. Everything in the room was still, the furs that lay from Astrid's mid-back down were unmoving, the candles that had burned through the night were burnt out, the newlyweds clothes lay strewn across the floor and the hatch was firmly locked in place.

With another yell from the terrors, Hiccup snorted softly and stirred a bit. He opened his eyes and gazed around the room quietly, seeing his clothes scattered around the room. Somehow his shirt managed to hang itself from one of the beams. He was confused and unsure of the situation, until he heard a soft hum from the woman on top of him.

Hiccup looked down to see his divine beauty lying on his chest. Her hair was sprawled over her back and down to the bed, her mouth was closed, yet a trickle of drool had made it's way down to Hiccups bare chest. He didn't mind though. With his right hand, he gently moved her blonde hair out of her face. That's when partial reality hit him. He squirmed a bit, confirming that he was, indeed, stark naked. The chief had no recollection of yesterday, just powerful and sensational feelings. His eyes trailed down to the girl, the girl who he realized had no top on, the girl who had her bare chest pressed to his body.

Hiccup's eyes widened as he quickly took a peek under the furs, revealing that his fiancee was in the nude as well. The young man began to panic, until he gazed down at his left hand and saw the twisted silver ring...the one that his wife put on his finger yesterday. The memories came flooding back to Hiccup. They had married yesterday, drank and ate, asked for the Gods blessings and then...this.

Astrid pulled her left hand to her face, involuntarily rubbing her nose in her sleep. The ring that was on her hand caught Hiccup's attention as well. He couldn't believe the time had gone by so quickly, it seemed like only yesterday that he had proposed, but no, yesterday was they day that they were wed and finalized their marriage.

"Hiccup." Astrid groaned.

The chief closed his eyes again, pretending to be asleep.

The blonde viking blinked her eyes open and gazed up at her husband. He looked to be fast asleep, his auburn hair flopped in front of his eyes. She smiled and touched her bottom lip with a finger, thinking about yesterday and the events of last night, which set flutters up her stomach again. Unlike Hiccup, she remembered every single detail, his touches, his taste, her butterflies, and her pain. Although it was agonizing at first, she had held her tongue until the sensations became pleasurable, by then she was sure the whole village could hear. Her cheeks flooded with warmth at the thought, but she didn't care; she loved Hiccup and they had shown each other that love with the final act.

Astrid's finger made her way to her mouth as she began to bite on her nail. She heard a stifled sneeze and looked up to Hiccup. A smile crossed her face.

"I know you're awake." She said, pulling her body up and along Hiccup's.

The top of her bum peeked out from the furs, sliding into Hiccups hand. He gave a slight squeeze, making Astrid squeal. Hiccup chuckled and opened his eyes. They stared into each others orbs, just savoring the love that became apparent in them.

Astrid slithered her hand up to his face and pressed her index finger to his plump lips before hooking it around his bottom lip. "Good morning." She said softly.

Hiccup smiled widely. "Good morning." He said in his sexy morning voice. "Are you alright?"

Astrid nodded, setting her chin on his chest. "A little sweat and blood never hurt anyone."
