I woke up oblivious to the previous night events. I slowly got up from my bed and I realized that I didn't have any clothes on. I get up as fast as possible and dress my self as fast possible. Then I start to ponder of how I woke up naked on my bed and in my room. I start pacing around my room and then I suddenly trip over some sort of clothing. When I git the wood floor there a loud thud that echos throughout the room.
I hear some shuffling coming and think of the worst possible situation. that I have stolen a girls purity. Here in berk, my home, the worst possible thing you can do is take a girl purity before she is married. When I stand up and look over my bed, what ever I was thinking was nowhere near as bad as this.
Their on my bed was a naked Astrid slowly rising from my bed. I stare at her face to distract me from her bare chest that nothing is covering. At that moment all the previous nights events, hel the previous month memories come back.
She didn't notice me for a whole minute as I tried to use her face as a distraction. She then seems lost for a couple of seconds as she stares around the room until her eyes fell on me. I could se the realizing coming to her eyes, also how she noticed my face that was probably red as a good tomato."What are you staring, husband" She sais with poison in her voice. I quickly nod at her body to so that she can look down. She does. When she does she sees that she has no clothes and that the her chest is showing in all its glory.
She looks up at me with a fire passion that only meant one thing. death. She grabs the furs and covers whatever was showing. She then proceeds to grab the closet thing to her and chucks it at me like she's throwing an axe.
She throws what ever at me at my face. It hits the target which is me. But just not me, me and my face. When I get hit the force is too strong for someone who just stick an bones. So I stumble back and trip over what I think is another piece of her clothing. The window which is just behind me.
One second I'm staring at an Astrid that looks like she could kill a dragon with her eyes. The next I'm staring at the Berk skies that tells me that it's summer here, Which is rare.
Theirs a sharp pain in my back. The power of the hit is so strong I hear a crack. A second after that I could not breathe, my vision was becoming blurry. Then I was out like a candle.
I could feel the pain course through my body as I wake up from the fall from the window. When I finally decide to open my eyes I see the berk skies gleaming down on me with all its glory. The gods in Valhalla must hate me because no one had come to help me. Makes sense though since no one would come help Hiccup the useless. Not even my beloved wife!
The morning events come back to me. Waking up without clothes. tripping over some of clothing. Waking up Astrid on my bed. getting hit by Astrid. Then ending up falling from a story high space. Astrid. She was everything I wished it would be lile. I also liked her since I was a little kid. My feelings for her had gotten stronger over the years, but me being the useless of the village always meant that she ignored me. I still watched her from a far even though I knew that nothing would ever happen between us.
That is until my Father, Stoick the Vast, Once said to break a boulder three times his size in half just by head butting it. I say it's stupid he calls it obedience. Then with him being the genius he is. He thought me being the useless and all that I would die before I became chief which no one wanted anyways or before I gave the village the next heir after me. He talked to the Hofferson about an arrange marriage with their only daughter who is the Great Astird Hofferson.
I may have more brains than everybody in berk put together, but I still didn't understand the female species. Mostly because she's completely ignored me when we both found out about our marriage. Everything during the ceremony went like it was planned to. We both kept stone emotionless faces even when we consummated the marriage. Which our parents and two or one elders watched
It was awkward to say the least, mostly due to the facet that I actually like her. That whole day I made sure to know show emotion because I knew for a fact that if I showed any kind of happiness I would be in for a beating.
So now that we were alone I knew it would be quiet and awkard and all sort of negative emotion in this house. the village had built us a house. She also hated me for being forced to marry the useless, the runt, and everything in between.
I wished my dad would have never done this. That way I could have died without getting the chance to give him the heir he wanted after me. Being the genius I am, I knew that it only took one time to impregnate a girl. That means she was probably already carrying the nest heir after me. Of course here in berk people got married and had kids at a very young age due to the fact that average life span was at most thirty years.
I was still in pain bit it had subsided since it happen. I slowly stood up feeling the sleepiness of my legs feel like a thousand needles stabbing me at a rapid speed. I slowly walked around OUR house to the entrance. trying to keep my back as straight as possible so that the pain wouldn't be so great.
I open the door and walk in slowly trying not to make any sound. The first thing I notice is that Astrid is siting on one of the stumps, in front of the fireplace. The second thing is the smell of burnt fish. Putting the two together I predicted she was trying to cook. I would have told her that I could do it but that would damage her pride more than it already is. That's why I silently watch as she struggle to get a decent fish right.
While I waited, I pondered on the fact that no one had to come check up on me. not even my beautiful wife. That sounded silly just thinking about it. I of knew why, non one wanted me, not even my father. When I went missing people were kind of happy because the screw-up was out-of-the-way. 'The wonderful life of Hiccup' I thought to myself sarcastically.
Then it was back to Astrid. She was trying to cook so that meant that one; she was hungry and wanted a meal. Two in berk the women always cook for their husband. That brought another thought into my mind, She was cooking bad because she dint know how, or she wanted me to die of food poisoning. Or just both.
I was so lost in my thoughts that i didn't notice Astrid staring straight at me. "Foods ready" she yelled in angered tone. I snapped out my thoughts, startled by the sudden outburst.
I sat down on the table that the village also built for us. She put in front of me a fish that looked like it was charcoal color. "Thanks" I said not wanting to get my ass handed to me today. Well it's usually the twins and snotlout that do that but I wasn't taking any chances. I would have said some sarcastic comment but that end badly as well. I stayed quiet and ate her burnt fish without making any unpleasure facial expression.
Half way done with my meal Astrid decided to say something, "How can you eat this? It taste horrible". I knew it was a question even with the angry tone in her voice that seemed like it was never going to go away.
"No it's good after you get past the burnt, the fish is pretty good." I said flashing a goofy grin. it didn't help me in any sort of way smiling at her. I could also tell she did not accept my answer.
"Look, this is horrible" I said and before she got time to grab something and throw at me i continued. "Though, I know you don't want to do this. they forced me into marriage, and you were also forced into marriage." she put what i think was a piece of wood down. "You weren't made stay at home and be lovey dovey wife. I'm not husband to any girl who got unlucky to marry me.
"I know how much you hate me and doing this wifey crap. I thank you for trying. last if you want to just pretend like we don't know each other, and we do are own things. I'm fine with that" I stood up with finishing that sentence. and I left for the forge.
Review as much as you want. Also tell me what you think. Also I will continue to make this story. YouAfraidYet? I'm out peace!
