Chapter 1: A Whole New Year
January
7-year-old Midge Haddock slowly opened her eyes. The sun peaked through her white curtains, and she slowly got up. She yawned and stretched, then rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. She got out of bed, and walked over to her calendar.
When she saw what day it was, she immediately perked up. "It's New Year's Day!" she said happily. Today was officially the first day of 2018, and Midge couldn't wait to start the year. Midge put on her red dragon slippers, and hurried out the door.
She hurried down the hall to her parents' room, opened the door. Hiccup and Astrid were both fast asleep in their bed, and their black German and Shepard, Toothless, and Labrador Retriever, Stormfly were asleep on the floor.
"Mom, Dad, wake up." said Midge, as she shook her father. Hiccup slowly opened his eyes, and yawned. "(Yawns), Midge what time is it?" he asked. Midge looked at the clock. "7:45." she answered.
"Sweetie, you'll have to come get us a little later." said Astrid, tiredly. "But Mom, Dad it's New Year's Day." said Midge happily. The noise woke up Toothless and Stormfly, who began barking. "(Sighs) Why don't you go down and feed the dogs and get breakfast, and we'll be up later?" suggested Hiccup.
"Okay. Come on, guys." said Midge to the dogs. And she led them out of the room. "Gee why are grownups so tired on New Year's Day?" Midge asked herself. Downstairs Midge filled the dog bowls with Kibble and water, then got herself some cereal.
As she ate, she thought about all that was going to happen this New Year. She was a girl that loved having fun, going on adventures, and being with her loved ones, and she wanted this year to having all of that.
When she swallowed her last bit of orange juice, her parents came into the kitchen. "Good morning guys. Happy New Year." she said. "Happy New Year's Midge." said Astrid. "I see you're really excited." said Hiccup, as he put the coffee on.
"It's a whole new year. So much could happen." said Midge. "(Chuckles), it's nice to see you're enthusiastic." said Astrid, as she pet the dogs. She let her parents eat their breakfast in peace, as she went upstairs to her room.
She took a seat at her window seat, and looked out her neighborhood. She lived in the state of Minnesota in the small town of Berk. It was a great place to live and grow up. There were fun things to do in town, and they were right between the city of St. Paul and the country.
So they could either spend the day in the city or relax in the country. "Hey, Midge." called Hiccup. "Yes, Dad?" asked Midge, going out to the hallway. "After we get dressed we're going to walk the dogs, you want to come?" asked Hiccup.
"Sure." said Midge. She went back into her room, and opened her closet. She pulled out a purple shirt, brown skirt, and black leggins. After changing out of her blue nightdress and into her clothes, she grabbed her black winter coat, brown boots, and dark purple hat.
When she left her room, she saw her parents were just leaving theirs all dressed. Hiccup wore a red coat, brown pants, black hat, and brown boots, and Astrid was wearing a blue fur coat, purple pants, and brown boots.
"Ready to go, honey?" asked Astrid. "You bet, Mom." said Midge. With the dogs anxiously barking the family came downstairs. "(Chuckles) Okay you two we'll take you out." Said Hiccup. Astrid put on their leashes and the family and the dogs walked out the door.
As they walked down the street they felt the cold January winter air and the crunch of ice on the ground, but they didn't mind. Midge walked up front with Toothless and Stormfly, as they passed a house that belonged to their friends, the Ingerman family.
Fishlegs and his wife, Heather were sitting on the porch drinking tea and their two kids, Beth and Jack were playing with a bulldog (Meatlug) and a Doberman (Windshear) in the yard. "Hey, Fishlegs, hi Heather." said Astrid.
"Happy New Year, guys." said Hiccup. "Morning, guys." said Fishlegs "Happy New Year." added Heather. "Hi, Beth, hey Jack." said Midge. "Hi." they said. And the Haddocks walked on. A few blocks later, they came upon another neighbors house.
The house of the Jorgenson family. Snotlout, his wife Ruffnut, their sons Spikelout and Tim were just leaving for a small outing. As they drove by, they waved at the Haddocks and they waved back.
As the Haddocks were making their way back home, Hiccup got a call on his cell phone. "Hello? Oh hi Mom, nothing much we're just coming back from walking the dogs. No not really. That sounds nice, let me check real quick." he said.
He put his phone to his chest, and turned to his girls. "My mom invited us over for lunch, what do you guys say?" he asked. "That'd be nice." said Astrid. "Yeah." added Midge. "We'll be there. Bye." said Hiccup, and he hung up the phone.
When they got back to their house they put Stormfly and Toothless inside, got into their red SUV, and drove off.
They left their subdivision, and drove into town. As they drove, they passed by an apartment complex, where Tuffnut Thorston and his daughter Tam lived. After driving for another couple of minutes, they arrived at Stoick and Valka Haddock's house.
Midge loved going to her grandparents' house, not only because she loved her grandparents, but because their house was also the house Hiccup grew up in, which Midge found very interesting. They walked up to the door, and rang the doorbell.
Stoick answered the door with a smile on his face. "Happy New Year, son." he said, inviting them in. "Hey, Dad." said Hiccup hugging him. "Astrid, you look lovely." Stoick complimented. "Thank you, Stoick." said Astrid.
"And where's my favorite granddaughter?" he asked. "Here I am, Grandpa." said Midge. Stoick picked her up, and put her on his shoulders. Inside their house was warm and cozy, and Valka had just come from the kitchen.
"Hello, everyone." she said. After hugging and greeting her, they all went into the dining room, for lunch. Valka had made pulled pork sandwiches, potato salad, and baked beans, and as they ate they talked.
"So how's work for you two?" Valka asked Hiccup and Astrid. "Pretty good, still designing those buildings." said Hiccup. "And the women in my class are learning their moves." said Astrid. "Are you ready for the New Year, Midge?" asked Stoick.
"You bet." said Midge, eating her sandwich. "How's Gobber doing?" asked Astrid. "He's doing just fine on his farm in the country." said Stoick. When they finished they talked some more while Midge played with Stoick's Bloodhound, Skullcrusher and Valka's Border Collie, Stormcutter.
They spend the rest of the afternoon there, then they said goodbye, and went back home.
For the rest of the day Midge watched TV, and played with her toys. At dinner, the family had a meal of meatloaf and mashed potatoes, and when 9:00 rolled around, it was time for Midge to go to bed.
She took a bath, changed into her blue nightdress, and brushed her teeth. Her parents came to tuck her in. "Good night, sweetie." said Astrid, kissing her forehead. "Night, Mom." said Midge. "Did you have a good first day of 2018?" asked Hiccup.
"Yep, I can't wait for the rest of the year. But..." said Midge. "What's wrong?" asked Hiccup. "What if something goes wrong?" she asked. "Things probably will. But we know you can get through anything." said Hiccup.
Midge smiled, as he dad then kissed her. They turned off the light, then left the room. As Midge lied down she thought about what her dad said, and realized he was right. There would be problems this new year, but she knew she could handle them.
