Description "Hiccup, I really think your dragon wants to kill me."

Tuff whispered, keeping a wary eye on the night fury innocently drinking out of a nearby creek.

From his place, leaning comfortably on Tuffnut's broad chest, Hiccup rolled his eyes and let out a small sigh.

"I told you, Toothless is not out to get you. Get it through your head would you? Why on earth would he want to kill you?" The brunette asked turning his head a bit to gaze at his lover.

"I don't know Hiccup, he's your dragon, ask him. Oh and tell him to leave me the hel alone while you're at it."

Tuffnut replied, shifting his neck a bit so he could look down at Hiccup sternly.

The skinnier Viking sighed again and shook his head.

"Where is all this paranoia coming from? I think living with Ruff really has permanently messed with your head."

"I am not being paranoid."

Sure, it was true that he and his twin sister had constantly tried to one up each other ever since they were born and living with her had caused him to be on his guard always but when it comes to Hiccup's beloved Night Fury, his mistrust is on a whole new level.

When it first started happening, he thought he had just been hit with a small bout of bad luck. Everytime Toothless growled whenever he passed by, looking at him as if he were a lowly insignificant animal in the food chain who was trying to steal his food, he just thought he had caught the dragon on a bad day. However when it didn't stop, he began to get suspicious.

Eventually, whenever they were in each other's presence, Toothless made it a point to put his tail by Tuff's feet and forcefully swish it whenever Tuff made a move forward, causing the blond to fall flat on his face every single time. And if that wasn't enough, Toothless made it a point to remind Tuff of his very Un-Toothless-ness by nipping his fingers, his hand, his arm, his ankle and any other part of him that was unfortunately within close range of the Night Fury's teeth whenever Hiccup wasn't looking.

He told Hiccup about Toothless' hostile behavior towards him of course but as expected, the green-eyed man brushed him off, insisting he must've done something to provoke toothless or it was all in his head. Because, oh yeah Toothless is as harmless as a lamb and Well, you did used to poke at sleeping terrible terrors when we were kids just to see what would happen and blah blah blah, Toothless can do absolutely no wrong because he's my loyal pet blah blah blah…

Sure(insert withering glare of sarcasm here). Did he forget that Toothless was once the most if not the only dragon that the Vikings feared? The night fury wasn't called the "unholy offspring of lightning and death itself" for no reason. If he didn't know that before, he certainly did now. And if Hiccup would just notice the way he looked at Tuff every time the blonde threw the brunette over his shoulder or put an arm around him, or kiss him, or even jut casually touch him.

Toothless looked at him like Stoick usually did, except Toothless' protective/disapproving glare was twice as worse. The night fury looked at him like he would rip his spleen out with his teeth if he so much as breathed wrong.

Whichever god decided to make the night furies a creepily smart species of dragon, Tuffnut hated them with a passion…or they hated him. Because shortly after all the growling, tripping and death-glaring, more stuff began to happen,

His saddle would mysteriously vanish off of his and Ruff's zippleback and would suddenly show up somewhere, tattered and torn as if it had been used as a chew toy by something with a really sharp row of teeth and the straps that held it to his zippleback shredded and singed like something attempted burn it off, failed and just clawed it off instead. On more than one occasion, whenever he bent down to pick something up, he would hear something fly past his head and when he straightened, whatever was behind him was burning with partly blue flames. And more times than he can count, when he fell asleep outside, he woke up half buried under a mountain of what he really thinks was regurgitated fish.

Presently, he recalled all of these incidents to Hiccup who still didn't look convinced.

"What do you call that huh? Coincidence? I swear to Odin if you say yes, I will pick you up and dump you in that creek over there."

Hiccup raised an eyebrow. "Fine. I won't say it then."

Tuff glared at him. "I'm telling you, it's not paranoia when the dragon really has it out for you."

Hiccup sighed heavily. "Ok, say I believe you, why would Toothless do all of that to you?"

Tuff opened his mouth to answer, when he saw the big black ball of mock innocence and serious attitude himself, move out of the corner of his eye. He turned his eyes to him just in time to see Toothless glaring at him as if he were a baby terrible terror out to steal his fish. Tuff frowned and unconsciously slid his right hand, which was on Hiccup's knee, higher up the shorter man's leg.

Instantaneously, the look on Toothless' face went from peeved to murderous. Tuff had the sudden urge to back away as Toothless' pupils turned into slits and his snout curled back to expose several razor sharp teeth.

Realization suddenly came over him and just to make sure, he grabbed Hiccup's chin with one hand and tilted his head back to give him a nice, long kiss. He kept his eyes open and fastened on Toothless and just as he expected, the Night Fury's expression darkened even further until he looked like he was about  to seriously shoot a searing hot blue fire ball at him.

"What was that for?"

Hiccup asked as he pulled away but Tuff ignored him, Gray-blue eyes locked in a glaring match with slitted yellow-green ones.

"Tuff!"

Tuffnut broke eye contact to look down when Hiccup yelled his name.

"What?"

"What are you looking at? And why do you look like you're about rip someone a new one?"

"What am I looking at? Your dragon is looking at me like I'm the scum of the earth and I'm just returning the gesture." Tuff answered.

Hiccup raised an eyebrow at him and turned his gaze to Toothless, who was then back to innocently lapping up water from the creek as if he were the most harmless creature on the planet.

"You know what? Just get more sleep. You're just stressed."
