"The baths? Astrid, we can't go to the baths."
Astrid rolled her eyes, "Hiccup- or should I say, Astrid. I promise you, we'll be fine. Besides, you can't go walking around with a bloody skirt, it would ruin my reputation."
Hiccup shook his head, "But what if we run into the others?"
"What about it," she shrugged.
"I can't talk like you! I'd be all,'Er, wh-what?' or, 'Y-yeah funny you should say that."
Astrid sighed, he was right. Hiccup could never talk like her, even if he had to do it to save his own life.
She thought for a moment, "We could…. Practice!"
"Practice? Astrid, how exactly are we going to practice talking like you?"
Astrid crossed her arms and looked him in her rightfully owned blue eyes, "First off," she stood up, "you have to call me Hiccup from now own, and I'll call you Astrid."
"As-," Astrid looked at him sternly, "Er, I mean Hiccup, I don't really want to feel like I'm talking in third person. It's just…. Weird."
"Too bad, you have to do it. And you already broke my second rule: Never stutter or add in words like er. Here, try it, I'll pretend I'm you- well, I'll start talking like you to you, and you start talking to me like me."
Hiccup paused for a moment, trying to translate everything she said to be understandable, "So I have a conversation with you- like your me, and then I act like you?"
She nodded. "Yes, now let's start," she took in a deep breath, "Er… uh, h-hey Astrid."
"I don't stutter that much!" Hiccup said defensively.
"Ugh! Stay in character!" Astrid demanded, "Ok. Er, h-hey Astrid."
'How would Astrid respond? Think! Think! Think!' , "Hey, Hiccup," He said, mimicking Astrid's confidence.
She nodded, "So… nice weather were having, huh?"
"Hiccup, if you're just going to talk about the weather, I have much more important things to do."
Astrid bit her lip, "Do I really talk like that?"
He chuckled, "Well… I couldn't say you didn't."
She punched him on the arm, "Oh shut up."
"Are we done with lessons now?" Hiccup smiled.
Astrid walked over to her chest of clothing and threw him a smooth, leather skirt, "Change into this first."
He caught the skirt and smirked, "Oh, no spikes I see."
"What's wrong with spikes?"
"I just don't see how you can sit comfortably with them."
She laughed, "You get used to it after a while. Now just dress up! Well, actually, let me dress you up."
Hiccup's eyes widened, "What?"
Astrid put her hands on her hips, "It's my body; just close your eyes already!"
"Ok, ok," he chuckled, closing his eyes, "One more thing, Astr- or Hiccup."
"And what's that?"
He smiled, "Don't make me look like a girl.
^.^
Astrid and Hiccup walked downstairs; Astrid being in front as always.
"Hey, mum," She greeted her mother who was sitting on the table eating her breakfast.
Astrid's mom looked up, "Hiccup? Oh, sorry dear. I forgot what happened last night. How many more days to go?"
Astrid sighed reaching the bottom of the staircase, "Yesterday probably didn't count. Thirty more days to go I guess, not counting this day, though."
"Where are you going now?" Ingrid questioned the two, taking a bite of her horse meat.
"The baths, Hiccup needs to be washed up."
"That time off month again, eh?" Her mother laughed. (A/N True story.)
"Mum!" Astrid scolded, pointing at Hiccup who was awkwardly standing on the last step.
Ingrid shook her head, "Go on you two, and be careful not to run into anyone."
Astrid nodded and took Hiccup's arm. She pulled him towards the door and opened it, letting the chilly air of a Berk morning dance its way into her house. Astrid and Hiccup stepped outside and closed the door behind them.
"Ok, we can't run into anyone or else they'll start asking questions," she instructed, walking on the paths to the forest, where the hot springs was located.
"Hey guys!" Fishlegs waved making his way toward them, while the others walked behind him.
"A bit too late for that," Hiccup murmured.
"Mother of Odin, what luck we have today," she sighed.
"Hey? Where are you going?" Fishlegs asked when he caught up.
Astrid looked at Hiccup.
'Ok, time to act like Astrid,' He thought to himself.
"We're going to the forest. Where were you guys going?"
Astrid sighed in relief.
"Oh, we were looking for you two, can we go with you?" Ruffnut said.
Astrid grunted, "No!" She put a hand over her mouth, "I mean, er, no."
Snotlout blinked at the sudden outburst, then turned to Hiccup, "Hey, Astrid." (A/N- Thanks DinoMaster316!)
"What?" Hiccup frowned, folding his arms to imitate the famous Astrid stance.
'Please don't flirt with me, please don't flirt with me!' he begged.
"You know. Why are you hanging out with him, if you can spend more time with me?"
'Oh gods, why'
"I'd rather spend more time with a hog, Snotlout."
"Hehe, she thinks a hog is better than you," Tuffnut giggled.
Snotlout frowned and put an arm around Hiccup. He froze, 'Dear Odin, this is awkward.'
Take your arm off of me, Snotlout," Hiccup demanded, trying his best not to freak.
"Why?"
Astrid winced, "Do as she says, Snotlout."
"Why?" He asked again.
"Oh, you know damn well why!" Astrid screeched.
Everyone stopped dead in their tracks.
"Woah, Hiccup grew some bones," Ruffnut whispered to Tuffnut.
Her twin agreed, "Yeah, no kidding. Wait, what do bones have to do with this?"
"Well?" Hiccup looked at his cousin who was looking at Astrid; gawking like a dead fish.
"Well...?" Astrid asked slowly, trying to act calm.
"Oh, um, oh! I think I heard my Mum calling for dinner. Yes, that's it. Bye! Gotta go. Heh," He ran frantically towards his house, not looking back.
"Dinner? But didn't we just wake up? Unless we went into the future!" Tuffnut freaked.
"I'm pretty sure we didn't go into the future, which would be quite impossible, unless you use black magic. But no one does that; besides Gothi," Fishlegs explained.
Hiccup sighed in relief and caught up to Astrid.
"Thanks for what you did, that was really awkward," he smiled.
She lifted her hand to brush away her side bang, but stopped when she realized she still wasn't in her own body. "No problem. But I almost blew our cover."
"Astrid," he whispered, quiet enough so nobody could hear, "They wouldn't even notice if we came in wearing our parent's clothes."
"Hey guys! Wait up!" Ruffnut called, "Why were you heading into the forest anyways?"
Hiccup and Astrid looked at each other, as if the answer was written on one of their faces.
Astrid pursed her lips, "Um…We-I needed to show Astrid something…uh, important…"
"Important? Like what? Is it like a tree or something, because trees aren't really important," Tuffnut began to babble.
"But they give you oxygen." His sister interrupted.
"Really? How do you know that, huh? Maybe they give off a poisonous gas or something!"
Ruffnut smacked the back of his head, "We'll all be dead then you idiot! They give off oxygen!"
"Whatever, you've been hanging around Fishlegs too much."
"It's not my fault you're boring," she argued.
Fishlegs turned to them, "Hey, do you guys know where Hiccup and Astrid went, and when?"
The twins looked around; the duo had vanished into thin air. Just like that.
Woo hoo! I'm proud of myself. BTW, I'm splitting this into two parts. And does Ruffnut seem a bit too smart? Whatever, she deserves some respect as much as Astrid. Tuffnut does too, but… Well, I guess I have to think of something for that.
