This was your usual day on Berk. After four years of siding with the dragons, most of the resident teenagers had grown physically and mentally. But unlike his peers, Hiccup, well… Being Hiccup, hadn't eventually hit his growth spurt. Despite that, he and Astrid had grown closer than they could ever be. They'd had enough with their friendship label and moved to the next stage of their relationship. The whole village seemed to respect and envied their renewed status. None of them protested about their togetherness, even Snotlout, which was slightly amusing yet creepy at the same time. After all, the teens had become more self-conscious of themselves and thoroughly matured in their intelligence –save that for the twins of course, who only gained half of their adult transformation.

The sky was beautifully colored with light oceanic blue as the sea gently swept left and right. The cool morning breeze bit everyone's skin. Shining ever so brightly the sun atop the horizon. To start as well as to end the day, Hiccup had asked Astrid out on a date. It was a date date, not the normal date which contained dragons in the definition. Not to add they've always made their days some kind of a date every single time. But Hiccup wanted some refreshment and for the good-old-sake he asked if they could be alone all day. Astrid, who had no ground to argue, accepted cheerfully and promised to make it special.

"Dad! I'm gonna stay out until late today. No need to wait for me" Hiccup yelled to his father who was currently fixing his chiefly fur cape.

"Sure, son. I'm pretty sure you're going to spend the whole second with Astrid today, huh?" He eyed his shoulders which held his cape and turned to his son. His jaw dropped in the sudden.

"Is… Is that you, Hiccup?" Hiccup raised his eyebrow in confusion until his father pointed at his new appearance. He chuckled in response.

"Oh. Haha, sorry dad. I haven't told you about my new outfit yet. It's awesome, right?" His father was too awed by his son's change that he couldn't form any words to describe Hiccup.

"You've really outdid yourself this time, son" Stoick grinned widely and patted Hiccup's back, a little too forceful which sent him tumbling forwards. His dad boomed with laughter of pride and gave a warm smile.

"Well, it really fits ye. With all the 'Hiccup flair' and all" They both let out a chuckle and gazed at each other.

"So? What're ye waiting fer? Don't keep yer lady waiting fer ye all day, son" Stoick pushed his son towards the door and led him outside. They both continued their train of chuckling and sighed in pleasure.

"Okay. Bye dad. See you at dinner, maybe" Hiccup ran down the hill as their house was placed highly above others. The perfect place to keep an eye on the whole village, also a nice place for the family of two to live.

Stoick waved his hand at Hiccup. "And I'll be here, probably" He shrugged.

"Have fun, Hiccup… But not too much fun!" Stoick said with a smirk. Hiccup's face blushed furiously. He turned around and faced his father with a fake frown.

"DAD!" He shouted playfully. Stoick laughed again and went back inside their house.

Astrid was waiting giddily for the promised date. She had been fixing herself up since dawn and tried every clothes to try and impress her boyfriend. She knew he would not pay any care to how she looked. She did not know how but he always thought of her as perfect in his eyes. He did not look down on her at things he bested at. He did not gloat when he outsmarted her. And he didn't even have second thoughts to let her beat him on their sparring matches that he could easily win, now that he had developed some skills with his left arm. But the latter earned him a punch for implying her need for pity, along with the usual reverse of honey and hatchet method continuation. Not that she hated it of course. In the end, she settled for a red tunic and a fur hoodie, with all the other accessories secured in place.

She was overly excited when a knock sounded from the door of her house. She bit her lower lip in joy as she ran down from the second floor and opened the wooden barrier. Surprisingly, it wasn't Hiccup nor any other person she imagined to come and stop by her house. It was her fat and huge friend, Fishlegs. She stayed quiet until he gave a nervous cough.

"Uhm. Astrid. I'm not in any place to say this but I think you need to retrieve Hiccup from his new onlookers" Fishlegs pointed at the town square where there was a crowd of Vikings and two person on the middle. One with chestnut auburn head and the other with yellowish braided woman hair. Astrid's eyes widened in shock and her head snapped back at Fishlegs with a look that the gods themselves would find intimidating.

"Since when have this been happening?" She asked feigning sweetness. Fishlegs gulped in terror.

"U-Uh. A-Around the past quarter hour. H-Hiccup have tried to get away from her but she's just not letting go" He closed his eyes at the thought of his demise. As he peeked with his right eye, Astrid was already gone.

In the massive sea of Vikings, Hiccup was struggling to escape the death grip given by one of his close friends, Ruffnut. After he had gotten out of his house, people had seen his astounding new armor and gaped at him, mostly the teenage girls on Berk. He wasn't paying this much attention until Ruffnut grabbed his hand and forced his body to crash with hers. He had been pulling with all his might to free his hand from the crazed state of the female Thorston. He knew what to do at this point but he didn't want to hurt his friend –although somebody would take care of that, so he made an effort to run away from her without actually harming her physically.

"Ruffnut, could you release me for a sec, so I can bend my arm the other way round? Cause to me it looks like it's facing the wrong side" Hiccup grimaced as she tightened the grip. She didn't respond to his plea and continue to hold the hand of the man –yes, man. Not boy anymore –who she suddenly found very attractive and impeccably the hottest person she'd ever seen.

Hiccup realized how critical the situation was, then without warning, a loud bam, crack, and thud sounded precisely beside him. Knowing exactly what just happened, he slowly turned his head to his left and gave a sheepish smile. "Hi Astrid…"

Astrid's fist was still in the air. She'd just knocked Ruffnut out of the blue with a silver platter of her right hook. She gritted her teeth in anger until a squeak was heard from the man she loved. Her expression softened and immediately pounced into his arms. He grunted at the unexpected reaction and steadied himself from falling backwards. Astrid pulled away from the embrace and looked him straight in the eye.

"Hiccup…" She said with the angelic voice of hers. Hiccup apologetically bowed his head down.

"I-I'm sorry. She just, jumped at me when I was coming to pick you up. And as much as I want to push or punch her, I just don't want to hurt our own friend" He rubbed the back of his neck, the thing that could make Astrid's heart melt accompanied with his crooked smile.

"You're too kind for your own good you know" They both chuckled. Astrid let a relieved sigh and stepped back to capture his new style. Anybody could just say that her day was crushed and shattered in the very best of ways. Her mouth was opened as wide as it can be. Her eyes traveled back from his face and his body. She gestured at his suit in disbelief while he grinned in success.

"I've just finished this yesterday and I thought I would surprise you with it" He walked closer to describe and tell all the details of the armor to her. She instantly wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed him down onto the short grass. He yelped in surprise as her lips landed hardly on his. He eagerly returned it and grabbed her waist. The bystanders around them smiled and began to dissipate one by one, giving them privacy to their moments. Astrid parted from the kiss and gave a tender loving smile.

"I love it. Very much, Hiccup" She said those words before attacking his neck with a bombard of kisses and sucks. He moaned sweetly into her ears. She hummed in the same blissfulness and stopped the hot make out session. She pulled her lips back with a pop and left a hickey on his skin.

"And I love you too" Astrid giggled. Hiccup touched the place where she sucked him and looked at her questioningly.

"What was that for?" She flashed her trademark grin and puffed her chest in pride of her action.

"That…" She pointed at the mark.

"Is to show others" She simply finished. The confused look didn't escape his face.

"To show what?" Asked him. Her smile got bigger and wider. She leaned down and kissed him passionately before answering.

"To show… That you, are mine, Hiccup"

A/N: Ooookay. This one is pretty short. I'm sorry but my brain just didn't work very well. My week was awful you see. I got German measles from who-knows-where (it's bad), and I managed to hurt all my wrists and ankles and bones in my lower body (this is worse), and got totally behind school and left out on homeworks (this is the worst). But thanks to all the support I managed to get it all done in the past days and earned my time to relax.

So I'm sorry if I hadn't updated for a very long time (for me it is). I hope you can all forgive me. And I will make sure tomorrow I'll post the next story based on DOOOOOOM Lord of Waffles request if I can. I don't think I'm going to tell my gender yet since the author's note has been very long :D so I'll write it in the following chapter. Bye!

Send me requests, guys! Stay up to date and keep on reading!
