Hunter's POV

In the morning,

I stirred in bed , as I felt something soft rub against my cheek. I opened my eyes to see Toothless snuggling against my cheek ,staring at me with his big green eyes.

I sat up in bed and rubbed my eyes as Toothless curled into my lap, and I scratched his chin as he purred contentedly. I looked around me , taking in the unfamiliar room.

Suddenly it all came back to me . I had moved to Berk the other day and remembered the concert, going to school , hanging with my cousin Scott and his friends...and then riding my bike , giving Astrid a ride home ...and getting a kiss on the cheek ...my thoughts trailed off, as blood rushed to my cheek and I blushed profusely .( It was just a kiss on the cheek as a way of thanks..What am I getting so worked on about)

It wasn't like it was supposed to mean anything, ...but it felt special."Oh great" I said to myself as I shook my head to clear my thoughts.

I glanced at my clock , which read 6: 30...Seeing as it was still early I decided go on a jog with Toothless. So I climbed out of bed and went to open my closet..I cursed myself as I remembered that I hadn't unpacked yet and that Astrid was coming over by 9 am to help.

I sighed happily as I took my running shoes out of my luggage and put on a hooded sweatshirt and track pants as i headed out the door to my room. Toothless then jumped on to my shoulder as we made our way downstairs to the front door .

As I approached the ground floor , I heard my dad whistling in the kitchen ( I have never seen my dad this happy before...He must've been overjoyed that I was going to be living with him )

" Morning Son" he called out as he saw me" Where are you going?"

"Oh..uh Good morning Dad..I'm ..uhh going to go for a jog " I said.

" Alright then, but be careful son!" he said as I opened the front door.

"Don't worry Dad ..I will see you in a few" I said as I shut the door behind me .

Toothless mewled impatiently, as I pulled up the hood on my sweatshirt to cover my face a little so that people won't recognise me .

And then I slowly stared jogging along the sidewalk balancing Toothless on my shoulder as I made my way to the park.

I sighed happily as I felt the fresh cool morning breeze against my face, I closed my eyes As I ran at a steady pace along the park trail.

After a bit of jogging I sat down on a bench to catch my breath as Toothless jumped of my shoulder and stretched himself on the grass and rolled around a bit. I chuckled lightly at his antics .

I gazed at the sky and sighed , I had never felt so free in along time . My agent , was constantly keeping me inside never letting me go out and only allowed me to go out when I had a concert.

I glanced at my watch to see that it was nearly 7:30 am , standing up , I whistled to Toothless as I turned to leave , he looked up and stalked towards me and jumped on my shoulder as we made our way back home.

At home

I grunted as I made my way up the stairs , to my room. Toothless jumped on to my bed and snuggled into the messed up covers. I remembered that Astrid was coming over and decided to tidy up a bit. I lifted Toothless and placed him on the cat post .and made my bed I then cleaned my desk and placed my laptop on top.

Checking the time I found that it was 8:15 .So I entered the bathroom adjoined with my room to take a shower , by the time I came out it was about 8:35 . I then picked out a pair of faded black jeans and a red button down polo shirt and put them on , I then rolled up the sleeves, to make moving my hands comfortable .

I then combed ( to some extent ) my messy hair and and made my way downstairs by 9 am when I heard the doorbell ring.

As I reached the bottom of the stairs I heard my Dad's voice " ...I'm sorry lass, but I don't know what your talking about"

"Actually sir, I'm telling you , that I told Hunter that I would come over to help him unpack"I heard a familiar voice .

I made my way to the door and placed a hand on my Dad's shoulder "Hey Dad..what's wrong?" I asked him.

Before he could respond " uhm..uh Good Morning Hunter!" I heard , I opened the door , and saw Astrid standing there . My jaw dropped open , when I saw her(she looked ...beautiful)

"Oh umm hey Astrid , Hi" I stuttered ( wait how long has it been since I stuttered)" Come in " I said.

She smiled at me and entered the house. My Dad raised an eyebrow at me and said" Care to explain , son?"

" Oh Yeah ..sure thing Dad , Astrid said that she would help me unpack "I said.

"Oh ..well sorry about that Astrid " My Dad said" Hunter didn't tell me that he invited you over"

" It's okay Sir , It's my fault actually I shouldn't have turned up unannounced " she said

" oh well...I'm off to work , Hunter " he told me " I left your breakfast on the table, well have fun " and with that my Dad , got into his car and drove off .

As soon as he was gone I turned around and closed the door . Just then I heard a slight rumbling noise ,only to see a very embarrassed looking Astrid covering her stomach.

" Hey Astrid , Want to join me for breakfast ?" I asked with a smile , at which she smiled awkwardly and said " Yeah sure ...That would be great "

I led her to the kitchen and enjoyed a hearty breakfast consisting of toast and bacon, after we had eaten our fill. I led her up the stairs to my room , so that we could unpack.

This was going to be some hard work , but I didn't mind at least I had Astrid to keep me company.

Astrid's POV

Waking up,

I woke up to the sound of my alarm buzzing in my ear, I extended a lazy arm and turned it off, as I sat up groggily in my bed. I glanced at the ceiling and got out of bed as I realised that I wasn't covered by my blanket. I looked down , only to see myself wearing an unfamiliar black jacket.

With a sense of shock, I remembered the happenings of the night. I remembered Hunter giving me a ride home , giving me his jacket to keep me warm and asking me to keep it saying that it looked good on me.

I remembered how I punched him lightly in the arm and then pulled him by the collar of his shirt and kissed him on the cheek.I felt blood rush to my cheeks and I groaned out loud at what I had done .How could I be so stupid enough to kiss Hunter Nightfury.

With a jolt I realised that I had promised him that I would come over to help him unpack , I ran around my room frantically, trying to calm myself .

I then decided to skip my usual morning jog , seeing that it was already 8 am and that I'd promised Hunter that I would come by at 9 am. I quickly took a bath and put on a Blue sleeved top and a red and black skirt and black leggings .

I then brushed my hair and braided as I made my way out of my room and down the stairs . I ran into my mom who seemed rather surprised to see me leave the house early , on a weekend.

" Good Morning , Astrid, Where are you of to in such a hurry?" She asked .

" Oh ...Good Morning Mom" I said " I'm ..uhh..going to the Mayor's house next door."

" oh Good Heavens ..Whatever for?" my mom asked with an incredulous look.

" Relax mom, It;s nothing to be afraid of" I said , trying to reassure her " I promised Hunter that I would help him unpack"

" what? When did this happen?" She asked .

" oh ...Last night, After the concert , when I left, Hunter offered me a ride home, and seeing that he went through such lengths to get me home, I promised that I would help him unpack , as a way of thanks." I said.

" That's Alright with me Astrid , but why are you going to the Mayor's house?" She asked

" Oh ..yeah , I totally forgot to tell you that, Hunter is actually Mayor Stoick's son " I replied .

My mom nodded with approval and said " Alright then Astrid, but be on your best behaviour and don't cause any trouble for him"

" Ok mom, See you" I said as I made my out the front door .i then moved toward the Mayor's house when I realised that I forgot to eat Breakfast.( Oh wel, no biggie, It's just for one day)

I then rang the doorbell and waited . I heard someone approach( I thought it was Hunter ) and was about to greet him good morning, when the door opened to reveal the Mayor standing there looking at me with a quizzical expression as to why I was at his house.

"How can I help you lass? " he asked with a smile.

"Oh boy"I thought.

I told him that I had come because Hunter had asked me to, he looked at me with an incredulous look and said " I'm sorry lass but I don't know what you're talking about"

"But, You don't understand Sir, I promised that I would come over to help him." I said.

Just as he was about to respond , some one placed a hand on his shoulder and I heard a familiar voice ask" Hey Dad ...what's wrong ?"as the door opened to reveal Hunter standing behind him wearing a red shirt with the sleeves folded up and black jeans

Taking this as my chance I quickly wished him "umm Good Morning Hunter".

Hunter looked and saw me smiled and said " ..Good Morning Astrid".

I was just about to step inside when his dad asked" Care to explain ,Son?"

After Hunter explained everything to his Dad, The Mayor turned to me and apologised for his actions as Hunter forgot to inform him that he had invited me told us to take care and left to head to the town hall.

After he left Hunter closed the door and turned around , just as my stomach I was nervous before .. I was completely embarrassed now..cause I hadn't had any breakfast and I was really Hungry.

Thankfully ,Hunter didn't say anything , He simply smiled at me and asked" Care to join me for breakfast?" . I could only nod as he led me into the kitchen, where we ate some toasted bread and bacon.

After we had finished eating Hunter loaded up the plates in the cleaner and turned to look at smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck and said" Ok then .. So let's get started ."

I smiled and nodded and asked him" so where is your room ?"

He led me up the stairs to the second floor and opened the second door on the right . No sooner had we entered the room,something black leapt toward us . On instinct I ducked , and closed my eyes.

"Relax Astrid" I heard Hunter say" Open your eyes , It's okay "

I opened my eyes and stood up , to see a black cat on Hunter's Shoulder.

" You have a cat?" I asked. "Yeah, Astrid , meet Toothless!" He said as the cat leapt from his shoulder onto mine and nuzzeled against my cheek as I laughed .

( Toothless huh? That's A weird name ...Why does it feel so familiar...Oh well)

" He likes you" Hunter said with a smile.

"hey bud , we're gonna unpack, So why don't you go take a nap" Hunter said and as if Toothless understood , he jumped of my shoulder and left the room.

" Sorry about that " Hunter said sheepishly.

"I don't mind " I said" he's cute and I can see you care about him a lot'

" Yeah I love him to bits and he knows it too" He said with a smile .

"So what should we start with?" I asked.

" Oh yeah ...so ..How about we start with my clothes and instruments .?" He asked." I've already arranged my ummm ..underwear" he said with a slight blush.

I laughed slightly" Relax Hunter It's nothing to be ashamed of" I said trying to make him feel comfortable.

"So where should I keep Your clothes?" I asked .

" Umm...In the closet over here he indicated to the white shutters near the door " he said and soon we got to work .We organised his wardrobe and his miscellaneous instruments like a single drum, a bass guitar and guitar strings neatly and shut the door.

" Hey Astrid " Hunter called " Can you help me move the bed ?"He asked " I want to move it near the window " He said

So we pushed the bed , with a little difficulty , near the window .When we finished we both sat down heavily in his bed . I turned to look outside , the window ,and was shocked .

"What's wrong?" Hunter asked with concern

" it's nothing " I breathed out" It's just that that's my room " I said pointing out of the window .Sure enough , that was the window of my bedroom and it was only five meters away.

" Oh that's Great " Hunter said suddenly , i looked at him surprised and he simply smiled " This way i can easily talk to you by looking out the window " he said.I blushed lightly at his remark (Oh my God, Hunter wanted to be able to talk to me )

Just then , he accidentally pressed the "PLAY" button on his music player remote , which was lying on the bed and I heard Hunter singing a song I had never heard before, but he quickly shut it off.

"Why did You Turn it off?" I asked him " Is that a new song?"

" No...It's actually my first song" He replied.

" No way , i've never heard that one"i said and he sighed" Oh yeah ...that's because I not released it officially in an album" he said" I sang this song as my debut single , when I got the opportunity to become an idol, but I haven't sung it at any of my performances"he explained.

" Well why not?" I asked him .

He looked at me with a nervous smile and said " well...cause I wrote that When I was 10 years old ..when I was not confident with what I should do with my life"

I noticed that he wasn't telling me everything but I let it slide . I was more interested in that song so I asked him" hey can I hear it please?"

" uhh sure ...but I only have a performance track, so i have to sing it for you , is that okay?"he asked

I couldn't believe it , Hunter was going to sing for me , this day couldn't get any better. but in spite of that I found myself saying "You don't need to do that for me" I told him.

But Hunter simply stood and looked at me with a smile and said" It's not a problem , It's the least I can do for you after you've helped me som much"

I couldn't do anything but blush and smile at this thoughtful and kind attitude.

I watched as Hunter walked to the center of the spacious room and turned on the performance track and started singing as the music picked up.

"Everybody's always talking at me. Everybody's trying to get in my head. I wanna listen to my own heart talking. I need to count on myself instead." Hunter sang calmly .

"Did you ever...Lose yourself to get what you want? Did you ever...Get on a ride, then wanna get off?" Hunter sang along with the prerecorded voice.

"Did you ever push away the ones, you should held close? Did you ever let go? Did you ever not know?" Hunter sang smiling.

"I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am. I'll give it all I got, that is my plan. Will I find what I lost? You know you can...Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it. (Bet on me)." Hunter sang as he started dancing.

"I wanna make it right, that is the way. To turn my life around, today is the day. Am I the type of guy who means what I say? Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it!" Hunter finished and calmed his tone again.

"How will I know if there's a path worth taking? Should I question every move I make? With all I've lost, my heart is breaking, I don't wanna make the same mistake." Hiccup sang as the performance track voice joined in again for the next part.

"Did you ever...Doubt your dream will ever come true? Did you ever...Blame the world and never blame you?" They sang together.

"I will never, try to live a lie again. I don't wanna win this game, If I can't play it my way." Hunter sang before the chorus.

"I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am(Who I am). I'll give it all I got, that is my plan(That's my plan). Will I find what I lost? You know you can(You know you can)...Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it(Bet on me)." Hunter sang with the track.

"I wanna make it right, that is the way. To turn my life around, today is the day. Am I the type of guy who means what I say? Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it!" Hunter smiled , at me as the beat changed

"Hold, hold up, give me room to think. Bring it on down. Gotta work on my swing, gotta do my own thing, hold, hold up..." Hiccup sang.I laughed as he started jumping around, break dancing on the floor.

"It's no good at all to see yourself, and not recognize your face. Out on my own, it's such a scary place. The answers are all inside of me...All I gotta do is believe..." Hunter sang out as the beat quickened.

"I'm not gonna stop. Not gonna stop 'til I get my shot. That's who I am, that is my plan. Will I end up on top? You can, Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it. You can bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it..." Huntersang faster as the song was coming to a close.

"I wanna make it right, that is the way. To turn my life around, today is the day. Am I the type of guy who means what I say? Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it(You can bet on me)!" The music stopped as he finished panting for breath now.

I stood up and started clapping."So how was it ? I don't think it was that good"Hunter said.

My eyes widened with surprise seeing that he just said that such an amazing song wasn't good."Are you kidding me , Hunter?" I asked him. He looked up at me curiously," That song was amazing" I said.

"Really?" He asked.

"Of course, it's really good, I can't believe that you wrote that when you were only 10 years old" I exclaimed" give yourself a little more credit ,will ya? You should sing it at your concert"

Hunter looked at me grinned "Maybe, I just might!" He said."Thank you, for helping me today Astrid. I appreciate your help"he told me.

I smiled softly and said " Don't mention it Hunter"

He rubbed his neck awkwardly and extended his hand to me and said" So...Friends?" he asked .

I took his hand gratefully and smiled "Friends" I with that my head was in the clouds .

I was soon snapped out of my thoughts as Hunter asked " Hey Astrid, It's almost lunch time ,wanna stay over for lunch?" He asked .

" Sure " I said " Let me just tell my mom"and I quickly sent her a text saying that i would be having Lunch with Hunter and my replied that it was fine .

" So what are we having for lunch ?" I asked .Hunter simply smirked (now that was getting annoying and adoring)" What's your favourite pizza ?" He asked.

Hunter's POV

Lunchtime ...

" So what are we having for lunch ?" Astrid asked. I smirked and asked " what's yor favourite pizza ?" As I dialed the number for "The Pizza Palace".

" Pepperoni with mushrooms and chilli" she said and my eyes went wide" that's my favourite too " I said with a laugh.

So I ordered Two Pepperoni pizzas with mushrooms and chillies, along with two bottles of coca cola and waited for them to arrive.

Meanwhile I turned to Astrid and asked"You wanna watch a movie?". She looked at me with surprise and said "Sure , which movie ?"She asked.

" Would you like to watch X-Men Apocalypse?" I asked " I have it on a dvd" I said.

Her eyes widened and she she said" But it was only released yesterday!"

I chuckled and said" An acquaintance of mine happens to know producer and she sent me a copy a week ago, since she knew that I really wanted to watch it ."

" I wanted to watch it, but the tickets were sold out " she said" can we watch it?" She asked .

"Yes of course " i said as I inserted the disc into the DVD player and pressed i heard the door bell ring and I went downstairs , It was the pizza delivery guy.

I got the pizzas and paid for them and made my way to my room . I set the pizzas on the counter And sat down on the small couch next to Astrid .Soon we finished eating the pizzas as we enjoyed the movie.

After the movie ended we were both enthusiastically talking about the finer points and highlights.

" ...and I really enjoyed the scene how Quicksilver saved everyone in the mansion, it was hilarious"Astrid said as he laughed.

" Yeah I know right ? He is amazing " I said .

We soon settled down , and sighed contently . Suddenly Astrid stood up " I guess it's time for me to leave " she said.

"Yeah ..." I said as I Walked her downstairs and opened the door.

" hey have you finished your Math homework?"i asked suddenly

" No, it's a little hard, so I thought of finishing it tomorrow" She said.

"Oh well , wanna come over, to study , I could help you , ...we can finish it together" I said quickly" uh..i mean only if you want to "I stuttered out.

She looked me with surprise and then she smiled softly and said " Sure , i'll see you at 4:30?"she asked.

Astrid's POV

I couldn't believe it Hunter had just said that he would help me with my homework and asked me if I could come over to study.

I smiled and replied" Sure, i'll come around 4:30 "

"Hey Astrid " Hunter said suddenly "can i see your phone ?" He asked.

"Oh yeah sure " I said and I gave it to him.

Hunter typed something in it and gave it back to me and said " That's my number , call me if you need anything"

I smiled at him and said " Bye Hunter , See you tomorrow"

" Bye Astrid " He said as I walked down the drive and left, when I reached home I told my mom what i was going to do tomorrow , she simply smiled and nodded and said" Hunter seems to be a nice guy Astrid , don't cause him any trouble"?I nodded and ate my dinner

After dinner I went to my room , and laid dow on my bed as I took my phone and started texting

"Thanks for today Hunter . I really enjoyed Myself. Gud Nite

-Astrid"

No sooner had I sent it , I received a reply:

"Ur Welcome Milady, Nite

-Hunter"

I smiled to myself on seeing Hunter's response, tomorrow was going to be fun I thought as I drifted of to sleep.
