This is Berk. I have spent my whole life here. My name is Hiccup. Things have changed so much since I met Toothless. All the changes were for the better. Dragons don't attack, I finally met my mother, and best of all, I married the strongest, toughest, smartest, and most beautiful Viking woman, Astrid.

I didn't think I could be any happier. Well, I did think that is I didn't have to go through the training to become a chief I would be happier, But none the less I was happy. I didn't know that I was going to be wrong.

I think it was the second week of our marriage when Toothless and I were flying, that I saw Alvin the Treacherous was coming for our yearly treaty. I still didn't trust Alvin very well so I went to get my dad, Stoic the Vast, to help me understand the issues of the treaty better.

On my way back to Berk, I saw Astrid flying toward me. She looked like she was frustrated. I could tell she wanted to talk to me, but I was in a hurry.

"Hiccup!" she yelled as she came close.

"Sorry Astrid," I said as Toothless and I passed her. "Alvin is on his way and I am going to sign my first treaty. I'll see you back at the house later tonight!" Toothless and I quickly went to my dad's house. After we landed, my father came out of his house with the ceremonial belt in his hands.

"Hiccup." My dad said as Toothless and I landed next to him. "Hey, dad. Alvin should be here in a matter of minutes." My dad smiled and handed me the belt. It was heavy! "What's this all about?" I asked.

"It's your turn. I am giving this to you." he said smiling. "You have to be properly dressed to meet an ally. Don't worry, I already had Gobber adjust it for you."

I truly didn't care about how big it was, it was how heavy it was. I carefully put on the belt and started to walk around with it. I felt like it was going to make my trousers fall off. I kept my hands on the belt for fear it would fall. I didn't have much time to get used to it. Alvin had just landed on Berk and I had to start with a tour of Berk. My dad stayed with me as I greeted Alvin.

"Welcome back to Berk." I said as warmly as I could. Can you blame me though? Alvin had treated me badly.

"I heard you are doing time now." said Alvin with a mischievous smile.

"Time? I don't understand. I am not in jail." I replied.

"You might as well be," Alvin laughed. "So where is she?"

"Oh." I replied lowly. I don't believe that being married is a thing that should be considered a punishment. "Well she went out for a flight."

"Well go get her." said Alvin. I didn't understand. Why did Alvin want to see Astrid?

"He's right son," my dad said. "The chief and his wife are suppose to give the tour." I had completely forgotten that part. As I ran to Toothless, Astrid and Stormfly landed and ran up to me.

"Hiccup!" Yelled Astrid. "I refuse to wear that cape!"

"Astrid, please it's my first treaty." I said in a hushing tone.

"But Hiccup," Astrid started. "Its too hot for a cape!"

"Astrid it is not going to be long." I said as I leaned in too her ear. "I have to wear this belt that is either going to kill my knees or make my pants drop."

"I wouldn't mind that." she whispered back at me. I felt heat rise in my face when she finished that sentence.

"Well, maybe late tonight, but for now please wear the cape." I begged. Astrid sighed and put on the cape.

The tour was, I won't sugar coat it, really rough. The belt was pulling my pants down. I had to hold it up. Poor Astrid was overheating. She was sweating really hard.

When we got to the feast at the Great Hall, I was relieved to sit down. Alvin, dad, and I then started discussing the treaty. I kept my eye on Astrid. On the way to the hall she was turning green. I didn't eat much, but I never really eat much. Astrid didn't touch her food, which worried me. She just turned even greener. I thought that cape was so hot it was making her sick. I admit I am very protective of Astrid, but watching her not eat anything scared me.

As the feast ended, I went to stand but found myself pinned to the chair. I struggled but I couldn't stand. That belt had me pinned to the chair! I was thankful that Astrid stealthily put her hand behind me and pulled me up by the belt. I walked over to the signing table and signed the treaty in yak's blood. I know it's disgusting, but it's an improvement from dragon's blood. I still wasn't thrilled with the idea and I still find it gross, but it keeps us from war.

Alvin finally left and I casually went back to my house. Astrid followed close behind me. One in the house, Astrid ripped off the cape. Her skin glistened with sweat.

"I'm sorry about that." I said as I watched her chug down a couple mugs of water.

"I'm surprised you're still standing." she replied pointing to the belt.

"Yeah," I started. "You and me both!"

"You know," she said walking up to me. The green color had left her face and she was back to her normal self. "You can let go of the belt now."

"You're kidding!" I exclaimed. "My pants will fall." Astrid then gave me the look and I let go of the belt.
