It had been several months since Stoick had passed away and Valka had taken the role of Hiccup's parental figure.
Hiccup was busy fulfilling his role as the new chief of Berk and Toothless was running around the dragon stables with Stormfly and Meatlug playing their dragon games.
Astrid had just woken up that morning noticing that her throat was slightly sore, she brushed it off as excess pollen in the air and prepared for the day.
She was to meet Hiccup at the Forge to help him and Gobber make dragon saddles.
As soon as she reached the forge Hiccup noticed something was wrong.
Astrid looked pale, she started to sweat even though she wasn't anywhere near the forge fire and he noticed she stopped to cough once in a while.
After 2 hours of working, Astrid had to take a break.
This was not like Astrid to do so and even Gobber walked up to her and felt her head for a fever.
Noticing the heat radiating off of her head Gobber tells the couple to take the rest of the day off and go home.
Realising that Astrid's parents were out for a few weeks visiting family in other tribes, Hiccup takes Astrid to his house.
Since Astrid rode Toothless to the forge, both Hiccup and Astrid rode to Hiccups on Toothless.
As soon as Astrid walked through the door Valka was fussing over Astrid and starts whisking her off to a bed.
Hiccup starts putting wood on the fire and puts water in the kettle to boil for herbal tea.
As Valka gets some water and a cloth, Astrid gives in to the fact that she is getting a nasty cold and curls up under the covers.
Toothless decides to curl himself around the bed keeping watch over Astrid as she tried to get some rest.
Hiccup comes around with the herbal tea and helps Astrid take a few sips at a time until the cup is empty.
He tells her to rest as Valka places the cloth on Astrid's head.
Astrid wakes up a few hours later feeling less feverish but notices that her throat and chest are more inflamed.
She drinks some more tea with honey and tries to relax as the herbs take effect and pull her into sleep.
