Monkey Chick227: Heyy all you people. Okay, so I watched How to Train your Dragon recently and I became obsessed with the Astrid x Hiccup pairing. So here is my really lame story about them, though you might think otherwise. :) thank you for reading!
DISCLAIMER: Monkey_Chick227 does not own Dreamworks' How To Train Your Dragon, or it's characters.
The warm morning sun rose gently over the horizon, and peeking over was just enough light to shine into the bedroom of Hiccup, the not-so-viking -like viking. It had been several weeks after the battle with the dragon, and he had gotten used to his prosthetic foot, which now had a pair of boots over them. Even though it was a long period of time since the fight, Hiccup was still famous around the village, and probably would be for the next.....millions of years or so?
As he woke, he caught glipse of the love of his life, Astrid, training in the meadow out behind his house. A smile spread across his face as he gazed at the blonde haired girl longingly. Her blue eyes twinkled in the sunlight and her strength showed by her constant practice. Hiccup knew that he had struck something inside her, otherwise she wouldn't have kissed him twice, right?
She stopped suddenly, and plopped onto the ground, her Deadly Nadder nudging her ever so slightly with it's muzzle. The teenage boy inside was puzzled, she looked distraught. So Hiccup tugged on his green long sleeve, vest, pants, boots and walked towards his back door, and opened it into a large meadow in which Astrid was in the middle. She hadn't noticed him until he had walked up to her and sat down.
"Hey....." He said, a little shook by what he saw. Astrid's blue eyes were clouded with tears that were spilling down her face, her cheeks and nose were slightly red and her bangs were thrown messily in her face. Hiccup knew this would get him a punch in the arm later, but he picked up Astrid and set her in his lap.
"Shh, shh, it's okay, stop crying please." Hiccup cooed as he wiped a tear from her eyes, now hugging her and rocking her back and forth ever so slightly.
Astrid took deep breaths and finally stopped crying, and was now hugging the boy. Even though Hiccup had been helping her, it was still a little awkward for him to be hugging her in this unusual state, him being used to the tough, independent Astrid. The question that lingered in his mind finally escaped his lips.
"Astrid, please tell me what's wrong. Please?" He asked, his green eyes deep with concern and sympathy.
"I--I can't....I just can't....." She stammered out, looking down at her hands. Hiccup was worried now.
"But you know you can tell me anything, Astrid. What happened?" Astrid's cold hands slipped into his warm ones, and she couldn't take it anymore, she had to tell him.
"My mom......she saw that I didn't make it to the finals in dragon killing class, and got extremely upset. And after her finding out that I had befriended a dragon, she was infuriated. So she kicked me out of the house until I could prove to her that I was a skilled viking warrior. I've been training ever since, but I just can't do it, I've disapointed my mother, my father, my ancestors, myself........ and everyone else." Astrid finally finished, breaking down in a heap of tears once again. Hiccup didn't know what to do besides hug her, and let the dragons, Toothless whom had come down from the roof, and Ember, Astrid's Deadly Nadder, comfort her too.
"Astrid, you haven't disappointed everyone, you haven't disappointed Snoutlout, or Ruff and Tuff, and definitely not me. You know that the reason I reached finals was because of training Toothless." The sleek black dragon popped up at the sound of his name and nuzzled Astrid gently, as she pet his nose. Hiccup suddenly got an idea, but became sort of flustered in saying it, since he knew Astrid was his crush.
"Hey,"
"Yeah?"
"Since, you know....you kinda......don't have a p-place to stay, d-do you wanna.....sleep.....at... my place?" Hiccup finaly stuttered out. "Yes, I know, it's a stupid idea, you can punch me now....." He said once again, letting his bangs fall into his eyes and slouching his back. Astrid struck him in the arm, HARD.
"Ow! What was that for?!" He cried, holding his arm where it had been abused by Astrid's fist.
Astrid giggled, and stood up, her eyes gimmering with hope again. "That, was for saying it's a stupid idea."
Hiccup knew what was coming next, so he puckered his lips and started to lean in, but the blonde punched him in the arm again, but harder.
"Ouch! Okay, that was uncalled fo--" but the brunette was cut off by Astrid's soft pink lips touching his in a sweet but sturdy kiss, which left Hiccup confused and dazed. She laid her head on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around his back, as he did around her waist.
"The punch was for leaning in too quickly. The kiss was for...... everything else." Astrid whispered, before drifting off into a deep sleep. Dispite her weight, and his noodles for arms, Hiccup struggled to get her into the house. Bur once he did, he lay her gently on his bed, and put a blanket around her. His breath got caught in his throat, she was so cute when she slept. She was curled up in a little ball, her hands placed beneath her head like a pillow, and her steady breathing and pink cheeks calmed Hiccup down the slightest bit. He gave her a kiss on her forehead then went out for a morning ride with Toothless.
Monkey Chick: OKAY! Tell me how I did pwease. I know, it's my first httyd story, and I know it will suck, but I'm trying hard. Sorry it isn't so long. I'm kind of obsessed with the movie right now, and I'm kind of happy I get to control what Hiccup does and says to Astrid. Mwahaha....
Hiccup: HEY!
Monkey: Hey yourself.
Hiccup: :|
Monkey: :3
Astrid: R&R please or I'll swing my battle axe at you.
