Here is an idea that manipulates the switching threshold point, by the D-type flip-flop, to terminate the timing cycle early. D1 is used as a low reverse-leakage diode with 2.2 V forward drop.

Circuit simulated in Proteus.

555_cir

Normal triggered output duration.

normal

Triggered output terminated by next trigger pulse.

normal_off

Output can be turned on or off with alternating trigger inputs. While the output is in the on state, it will time out after the normal timing period set, if no more triggers gets applied.

normal_off_on

Slower sweep.
