Yes, yes, I know, I haven't written in forEVERRRRRR... and I'm really sorry. But I was more than idealess, and still actually am. Still, enjoy this dumb little drabble I was able to whip up... Yeah... it's HTTYD modern...

"Oh, come on, Astrid." Hiccup leaned against his girlfriend's door. "It was an accident. Toothless didn't mean-"

'Yeah, I am really sure your cat didn't mean to do that!" Astrid, on the other side of the door, was petting her chameleon, Stormfly.

"Oh my gosh, Astrid, it was only a game!"

"I guess apologizing for your cat is more important that Snotlook winning, right?" She barely opened the door and glared at him, making sure her sapphire eyes bore into his grassy green ones.

He slightly stammered, "Well Snotlook got his pet hawk to do it!"

"Yeah," she grumbled, "I bet that-"

"Astrid." Hiccup grabbed the sides of her face, making her lips pucker up into fish- like ones. "Cats. Are. Frightened. To. Death. By. Hawks."

"So, Toothless could've beaten the hawk. He's done it before."

"Yeah," Hiccup protested. "But we did that before...well, to a great white shark. And, I mean, great. It cost him an arm and me a leg-" he held up his prosthesis leg- "literally!"

She sat on the edge of her bed, suddenly quiet, looking down at her shoes; her way of thinking.

All was silent for a few minutes. Astrid remembered how frightened she was when they tried to tame the unnaturally giant shark terrifying everyone on the cost of their island.

The duo had ended up on shore, under the huge shark...

"Y...yeah, Hiccup. B- but..."

Blood filed the water...

"That was..."

He'd barely made it...

"...different..." Her throat hurt, like it did before she cried.

What if he didn't...?

"Astrid?" Hiccup touched her face.

Her chest knotted up. She would've missed seeing that dorky smile of his, those freckles that speckled along his face, his grassy green eyes...

She hugged around his neck.

He blinked, suprised. He didn't even ask why, though.

"What if we did lose you?"

He looked out of the corner of his eyes, and watched his cat chase Stormfly around the room. After a few unsuccessful attempts at catching the chameleon, Toothless gave up, and crawled to Hiccup's feet.

Hiccup pulled Astrid back a little, pressing his forehead next to hers. "Hey, Astrid. Don't think about that, or what would've happened. I'm always gonna be here, okay?"

She let out a small nod. playing with her hoodie strings. He gave her a teeny peck on the mouth.

Toothless walked out, meowing endlessly, as if saying, "Come ooooon."

Hiccup pulled away, chuckling at his cat's persistent cries... which weren't really cries, more like complaints. "Come on, Astrid. I think your mom made cookies."

Before they walked out of her room, Astrid stopped him. "Hey, Hiccup?"

"Yeah?"

She finished adjusting her hoodie, then stood up and looked at him. "If you let your cat cheat for Snotlook again, I will kill your face."

He grinned his wide, childish grin; wrapping an arm around her. "Now, there's the Astrid I know. Now c'mon, before Fishlegs and the twins start arguing over snacks."
