Dragon's heart

Twist and turns

Johanna greatly enjoyed her new life with Stoick, and so did Stoick. Their lives were exactly like before since Stoick wasn't chief at the moment, they had more fun together and just basically lived their lives like it would be their last. That's until Johanna discovered she was pregnant, Johanna couldn't bring herself to tell Stoick, he showed no signs that he wanted a child, and Johanna wasn't sure if she was ready to raise one. Johanna just kept this news to herself until she knew what to do, Johanna just continued her daily life.

Johanna stared at herself in the mirror, she just felt her stomach and knew her problem would just get bigger and bigger.

"Morning" Stoick mumbled while he turned around in the bed, Johanna quickly moved her hand away from her stomach and smiled.

"Get up sleepy head" Johanna said, she tried to act normal even with her problem at the back of her mind.

"What were you doing?" he asks

"Nothing" Johanna lied

"Alright..." he mumbled, Johanna was lucky Stoick was still half asleep and didn't notice her lie, Stoick just fell back asleep. Johanna look at her self once more; she'll be able to hid it for now at least until then she needs a solution.

"JO!" shouted a familiar voice, Johanna look back and saw Eliana. Johanna sigh in annoyance, Eliana had become very annoying since she married Stoick.

"What is it?" Johanna ask as she put a fake smile on her face

"What are you doing?" she asks, Johanna just wanted to be alone and think about her issues.

"I'm just taking a walk around Berk" Johanna said

"Can I come with you?" she asks

"Sure..." Johanna said with a smile on her face. Johanna just listened to Eliana rant about who knows what, Johanna tried to understand what she was saying but Eliana was saying it too fast.

"And that's why I want a better dragon then my classmates" Eliana said finishing her very complicated story. Eliana had just started the academy a few days ago, and she already wanted to be top of her class which she already was.

"That's some story" Johanna said, Johanna suddenly got an idea! Maybe she could ask if Stoick wanted children, but she couldn't make it too obvious or she'll tell him about it. Johanna glance around the village and saw a child playing with a dog, "Oh look!"

"Cute dog" Eliana said

"And the child is too" Johanna said, Johanna really hope Eliana wouldn't see through her tricks since Eliana sucks with secrets.

"Meh...I'm not found of kids" Eliana said, Johanna saw her chance and her heart was beating like crazy.

"What about Stoick? Does he like kids?" Johanna ask, Johanna anxiously waited for Eliana response

"Stoick? I don't know...he usually talks about dragons" Eliana said unaware of the true meaning behind the question.

"Typical of him" Johanna said

Three months have passed, yes three months and Johanna still haven't told Stoick about the pregnancy. Johanna was just overwhelmed with worry, she knew Stoick would be furious about not knowing sooner, or he could be furious on having a kid. Johanna was starting to show and she had just dung herself in a hole, no one knew not even her own mother.

"Johanna" Johanna eyes widen in shock, she had pay a visit to her mother and hope she wouldn't notice her slightly larger stomach.

"Uh…. yes?" Johanna ask, Johanna quickly sat down and hid her stomach from her mother

"You're hiding something aren't you?" Isabella ask, she wasn't a fools, she could obviously tell something was up.

"What do you mean?" Johanna ask, Isabella pointed to her daughter's stomach

"How long?" Isabella ask, Johanna just sigh in annoyance and just gave in. She knew someone would find out at some point, and maybe this is for the better.

"Three months… " Johanna anxiously waited for her mother response, she was afraid her mother would get angry at her "Stoick doesn't know about it…. because I don't think he wants children"

"Johanna…. That's not good, you can't start a marriage with lies that never ends well" Isabella said, Isabella held Johanna's hands "I'm happy for you! Don't get that wrong, but you must tell him! You can't keep something like this a secret"

"I know… but what is Stoick doesn't want to have any… " Johanna said with a worried tone

"I understand sweet heart…. But you must tell him" Isabella said

"I didn't even tell him for three months! I can't even imagine his reaction" said Johanna

"He has the right to know" Isabella said in a gentle voice, Johanna didn't want to tell Stoick only because of his reaction. But Johanna knew her mother was right, Stoick needed to know and she must tell him even if Stoick would hate her.

"He's going to be so mad at me" Johanna said

"He'll be mad yes, but he does love you and he won't leave you" Isabella said with a smile "Stoick isn't the type who would leave, Stoick will stay by your side"

"Thank you" smiled Johanna, Isabella kissed Johanna on the cheek

"I'm excited for my first grandchild" Isabella said as she gently touches Johanna's stomach

"I just have mix emotions" Johanna admitted

"You'll be a great mother, honey" Isabella said, Johanna just hug her mother and held her tightly. Johanna said her goodbyes and waited for Stoick to return home, Johanna sat down in front of their home and waited for about five minutes. Stoick returned home and was surprise to see Johanna waiting for him outside, Stoick glance around the home before he sat next to her.

"What's the matter, Johanna?" Stoick ask

"Stoick… I have to tell you something" Johanna said, Johanna mentally prepared herself

"What is it?" Stoick ask

"Stoick…... I'm pregnant… for awhile" Johanna said, Stoick just stared at Johanna in shock

"What do you mean awhile?" Stoick ask

"I've been pregnant for a few months and didn't tell you" Johanna admitted

"How long?" ask Stoick, Stoick was still in shock, he didn't know what to say or do

"Three months… " Johanna said, Stoick just look away from Johanna

"Johanna I just need some time alone" Stoick said, Stoick just turned away from Johanna, he didn't want to talk to her for the moment.

"I'm sorry… " Johanna mumbled, she understood why Stoick needed to be alone, she was pregnant for three months and she didn't even tell him.
