It was late at night, and one boy lay awake in bed, drawing the covers over his face as he slept. In his dreams was a rather pleasant scene; it was him and Spitnose, together once more. They were laughing, smiling, hugging.. When suddenly they were entangled, their breathe upon each others necks, their lips daringly close together, mere inches apart. He felt a rush of emotions in his dream, and found as he awoke his breathing was heavy, his veins tingling with the fresh emotions of his dream. Realizing he had been sweating, he sat up, wiping his brow with his already soggy blanket.
It was then he realized music was playing. Or rather, vikings singing; as that was their own type of music. He could hear bells, and chimes ringing outside, laughter, and lots of vikings chattering away about this and that and what not. It was then he realized that he still had the wrap on his leg. He got up, a large, sturdy branch next to his bed. He had carved it into a single stick, and although it wasn't the best carving, it was smooth enough that it wouldn't give him splinters yet could still support his weight.
Grabbing his own sort of cane and using it to lean on as he got out of bed, he stumbled for a moment before hobbling towards the stair way. One step at a time- cane first followed by his good leg and then the other- he made his way down the stairway. His mother was sound asleep, so he left a note in ancient runes for her and sat it next to her, before heading out the door. Just before he reached the door he heard her call for him, but moments later she fell silent. He realized shortly after she was in a drunken stupor, and was merely talking in her sleep.
Heading out the door, he closed it quietly as he slipped on his fur vest, heading towards the Great Hall. He hobbled through the snow, realizing the cold snow that fell felt rather good on his injured leg. He came to the Great Hall and quickly scanned the room for signs of one girl. As he did so the dream played through his mind. He blinked, swallowing hard; he still didn't know just what that dream meant, or why he had dreamed it. But it had been.. good... After all it couldn't hurt; for it was just a dream... wasn't it?
