The candle flickered as Hiccup exhaled. His eyes were fixated at the papers laying on the desk, in front of him.

It wasn't really something important but, the sooner he finished it, the sooner he would get a break. His eyes drifted from the letters on the paper, up his hand and they settled on the golden ring on his finger.

A small smile formed on his lips and he breathed out a quiet laugh. The charcoal pencil slid it of his hands and landed on the wood with a faint sound.

Hiccup turned his head around to look at the blonde young woman laying in his bed, - their bed - sleeping soundly.

He stood up as quietly as he possibly could and slowly made his way over to the bed.

Sitting down on the edge of it, he looked at her. The blanket was covering her legs and just above her waist and she wore a small smile on her lips.

Hiccup smiled and leaned down, softly pressing his lips against her temple. Astrid stirred and awoke but she didn't open her eyes. "Hiccup, come on, lay down with me..." She said, her voice soft.

Hiccup pulled away and looked at her. She opened her eyes and looked at him. "I will. Just, let me blow out that candle and get this shirt off," He said before raising his hand and running his hand through her hair as he leaned down to press a kiss to her lips.

Astrid raised one of her hands and placed it on the side of his neck, her nails softly scratching his skin.

Hiccup pulled away and stood up slowly. He walked over to the desk and blew out the candle before making his way back to the bed and walking around it.

He usually slept on the left side so Astrid got the right side of the bed, the desk facing her way.

Hiccup sat down on the edge of the bed and leaned down, starting to unclasp the hooks on his metal leg. After finally getting it off, he left it on the floor below the bed before he reached for the edge of his shirt.

Astrid turned towards him and smiled, her hand reaching out and trailing over the skin that got exposed from the second he pulled down his shirt.

Without caring at that moment, he left the shirt on the floor too.

He felt Astrid's hand rake over his back and her nails carefully scratching him as she made her way back down.

Sensing that he was about to move, she pulled her hand back and allowed him to do so.

Hiccup swung his legs onto the bed and laid down, covering himself too before turning towards his wife and smiling.

Astrid scooted closet to him and she snuggled into his chest, her hand laying just over his heart. She moved her head the slightest and pressed at kiss to the side of his chest, just under his collar.

He hummed and looked at her, as if asking if she wanted to kiss him with the look in his eyes. Astrid laughed quietly and leaned up, pressing her lips against his. Hiccup placed his free hand on her arm and slowly pushed her down into the bed, his tongue licking her lips.

She let him in and her tongue met his before her back got pressed into the bed and Hiccup leaning over her. She shifted so that his legs were between hers and she hooked one of her legs with his, her left hand on the small of his back.

Her right arm was wrapped around his shoulders and her hand was tangled into his hair.

Hiccup pulled away and looked at her, a big smile on his face.

"Babe?" Astrid asked, her voice, soft. "Yes?" He asked and pulled back, trailing a kiss or two down her jaw and on her neck. "Aren't we going on a honeymoon? You need the time to relax from all the work."

Hiccup pulled away, seriousness plastered onto his face. "Astrid, I don't need a honeymoon. As long as you're here, beside me, I'll be perfectly fine. But, if you want a honeymoon, we can do that," He said.

"Really?"

"Yes. Anything for you, my darling."

Astrid laughed softly and slid her hand up and down his back, stroking the freckled skin. "Thank you, Hiccup. I just want you to rest. Take it easy for a couple of days. You need it."

He smiled. "Yeah, you're right. Maybe I do need a rest..." He confessed. Astrid hummed, content at him confessing to her that she was right. However, what came next shocked her. "But? I can never rest while having this gorgeous, amazing, smart, sexy young Viking warrior around me all day," He said, his voice, low.

"I...uh, I- what?"

He laughed and leaned down, pressing his lips against hers. She kissed back, still a little surprised.

Before he had a chance to do anything, his knee gave out and he collapsed on top of her, knocking the sheer breath out of her.

Astrid coughed before breaking out in a fit of laughter. "Oh my gods, you dork. You're so much heavier then you look," She said, her voice fading due to her laughs.

"Heh, sorry," Hiccup apologized and gathered himself before lifting himself up again.

Astrid's laughter slowly died down and she smiled at him, pulling her hands away from him before placing them on his cheeks. "My big, clumsy dork," She joked.

"Ha, ha, ha. So funny, Astrid."

"I know, right!?"

"Oh my gods, come here, you!"

Let's just say, that was one night to remember. Not only because of what they did, but because they were with each other.

And, things are always more fun if you are with the people you love.
