Hiccup+++
"You think?," said a mocking female voice. I spun around. She was the prettiest girl I had ever seen. Her (h/c) locks framed he face beautifully. Bright (e/c) orbs too. The tan colored sweater was too big on her and hung off her shoulders and fell around her like a dress. Long black socks going up all the way past her knees and tan boots.
"S-sorry, I'm Hiccup. Is this your dragon?" I asked. The blue dragon nodded at me with big yellow eyes.
"Yeah. She is," the girl stopped, coughing hard. That must have been why she had the slippery elm. I remembered it was in my hand.
"H-here!" I practically yelled turning to her coughing form. My arm went around her body. She was coughing so hard she kneeled over. I quickly broke the leaf to get the liquid out of the leaf. I pulled my water out, pouring it over my hand. I quickly held it to her mouth. She held my hand with her two, holding it up to her soft mouth. She coughed twice while drinking and sounded like she was choking. I rubbed her back as she made the noise. She finished, and it became an awkward silence.
"Would you like to come to my dad's village?"
"You're a Chief's son?" She asked.
"Yeah."
"I wouldn't mind."
"Great!" I grabbed her shoulders, I scared her by my sudden action. She started to hiccup. She flew her hands to her mouth to cover it.
"It's fine," I laughed. She tried to laugh but hiccuped past it.

"Who is she?" Astrid yelled at me. The girl was hiding behind me. But it was at this point I realized I had never asked, and she had never told me, her name.
"I'm Astrid. What's your name?" Astrid asked. She didn't Speak.
"Well," she insisted starting to get angry. Still no answer.
"Hiccup is she a mute or something!" Astrid yelled.
"N-no! She talked to me before!" I said quickly, defending myself. The most minuscule smirk came from the girl. Astrid missed the small expression.
"Don't you know it's rude not to answer a major."
The girl Practically sneered at the thought. For a minute I saw her think as though she wanted to say something, something with a smart ass- sarcastic tone. But instead she just smiled. Astrid stood her ground and stared. The girl kept her smile, I knew she was mentally preparing for anything Astrid could do.
