Hiccup glanced nervously at his dragon best friend
At Toothless his brave companion, whom he knew he could depend
His best friend smiled, or tried to at least
And Hiccup was ever so grateful for this once fearsome beast
"Thanks bud," he whispered, too scared to speak
Toothless bobbed his head, leaned over, and licked his cheek
The Viking gasped and gaped as Toothless laughed about
Hiccup sent him a glare, "You know that doesn't wash out!"
He straightened his clothes and wiped at his skin
But he couldn't frown forever, and he broke out in a grin
He rolled his eyes playfully and looked himself over
He brushed at his hair, and readjusted his posture
Hiccup took a deep breath to clear his head
For today was the day, he was going to be wed
Toothless nudged his noggin against Hiccups arm
And Hiccup smiled again, feeling all warm
There was a shout of surprise outside the Great Hall
And in burst his friends, not looking guilty at all
They were breathless, panting, nervous, and wide eyed
They glanced at Hiccup, suddenly quiet and shy
"What did you do?" Hiccup put his hands on his hips
The Twins covered their eyes, Snotlout looked panicked, and Fishlegs had a quivering lip
"We didn't do it!" the Twins exclaimed
"It's all our fault!" cried Fishlegs at the same time, looking scared and ashamed
There was a moment of silence as the friends shared glances
As they paused for a second, to weigh their chances
"We saw Astrid in her wedding dress," Snotlout expressed
Fishlegs looked horrified, "But not on purpose!"
Hiccup sighed, closed his eyes, and rubbed at his temple
"We're so sorry!" Fishlegs wailed, beginning to crumble
"Its fine guys, not a worry," Hiccup explained to them
The Twins grinned with relief, Snotlout took in a breath, and Fishlegs looked less glum
"But we'd better go," Hiccup said. "Before we're late!"
He didn't want to dawdled, not on this date
"Of course you wouldn't want to be late for your own wedding!"
Snotlout smirked, and the group began heading
They rushed to a field, where the wedding was to be held
Hiccup gaped at what he saw, and his heart swelled
For the field was transformed into quite a sight
And Hiccup smiled, full of delight
Flowers that were planted, all red, blues, and golds
Articulated the sunset that the landscape enfolds
A walkway was made, paved in silver and bronze
And Hiccup could only imagine when his beloved walked on
Hiccup took it all in, the candles, tables, and chairs
And he found out that his tribe really did care
He laughed with his friends, as everyone got ready
But Hiccup felt queasy, and a bit unsteady
He took deep breaths as everyone arrived
He blinked slowly as he was greeted and high fived
All too soon, the time was now
And he took his place at the altar, rubbing his brow
He closed his eyes, then opened instead
And what he saw next, made any kind of thoughts leave his head
For there glided in Astrid, prettier than ever
And at that moment, Hiccup knew he wanted to be with her forever
She looked so stunning, her beauty all around
And Hiccup Haddock immediately became spellbound
With her hair done up, swept out of her face
She came in with an angelic smiled, and walked with grace
Her white gown flowed and her eyes beamed
When the lovers caught the gazes with their biggest dreams
She floated toward him, both of them grinning
As they started another chapter, and a new beginning
She clasped his hands, eyes full of sincerity
As they were about to share their lives, for all of eternity
Hiccup barely heard the pastors' words that were then spoken
For it was all he could do was stare at the goddess whom he had chosen
The pastor paused and Hiccup knew that was their signal
The couple looked at each other, all smiles and giggles
Their words rang out, clear and true
Their words intertwined them, the words; "I do."
I absolutely love Hicstrid! Tell me what you thought about this. It's my first time making a rhyming story. I feel like a mini Dr. Seuss!
