Hiccup woke up from sleeping, it's been two months since he had deal with Astrid's first heat cycle as a hybrid.
Snotlout kidnap Hope for a second time and ended up facing Toothless in wrestling match with hammer and a shield because Toothless gave him those two items.
Snotlout ended up getting tail whip three times and thrown around the arena.
Toothless even spin him in circles to the point of him walking in a drunk state and collapsed until his eye sight was clear and for him to stop vomiting.
After the match, which Toothless won, Astrid punched Snotlout in the face for kidnapping her daughter.
Hiccup's dragon instinct took over his mind one time due to Astrid teasing him with making love and ended up chasing her to the Cove and her having to calm his dragon mind.
They haven't heard word from Drago Bludvist after Gaul was destroyed.
Hiccup gets dressed and wakes Astrid up and kiss her good morning.
Stoick took time away from chieftain to spend family time with his son, daughter in law, his wife and granddaughter.
Astrid pulled a prank on Hiccup to see reaction to it. He freaked out panicking about explaining to Alistair how he somehow got Astrid pregnant even though he had her drink moon tea.
When Astrid told them it was a dare prank from Ruffnut, Hiccup paid twice as much money and weapons to marriage agreement.
Flashback
Alistair ended up mad at his daughter and her friend because Hiccup was exhausted for three days laying in bed from making twenty weapons of five axes, five hammers, five daggers and five swords, all with the Hofferson's crest.
After Hiccup was fully rested, he took Toothless and Hope for flying to Gaul to visit and didn't return for two days because he wanted to get away from Astrid and Ruffnut.
He look around the village thinking about the lives that Drago killed.
He sighs "it's going to be hard having your first birthday party without your mother, Hope."
Hope nuzzle into his chest "ar u ad at ma?"
Hiccup sighs "a little bit, daughter. She and her friend pulled a prank on me saying she was with child and had me spend ten days making twenty weapon types and after I was done, I collapsed due to exhaustion."
Hope curious ask "wht is a pank?"
Hiccup sighs "a prank is basically setting someone up to harm them depending on if it would embarrass them or hurt them physically and mentally. Sometimes it could hurt the victim so much that the person only wants to be left alone because he no longer trust person."
Hope sighs "y do u love tha Astri grl if she men?"
Hiccup sighs staring at Sophie's tombstone "I honestly don't know why I love her if she's mean to me, but at least she's not mean to me everyday. We been together since we arrived on Berk."
"Do you know how much I have been worried about you two?!"
Hiccup turns around to see Astrid standing there with Stormfly and turns back to face Sophie's tombstone.
Astrid sighs "again with the silent treatment! How many times do I have to tell you that I'm sorry about the pregnancy prank?!"
Hope sighs "ma, da woud do any thig for u."
Astrid gaped at her daughter and realized why he's still mad at her. A memory months ago, he told Snotlout that he would double the bride price payment for getting her pregnant before marriage and before she turns twenty years old and she and Ruffnut made it into a prank which he worked ten days to build twenty weapons for her parents, with gold coins.
Hiccup closes his eyes "it wasn't the prank that upset me, Astrid. It was you lying about your pregnancy and all the villagers gave me discussing looks because I supposedly got you pregnant before marriage and your twentieth birthday and had to make twenty weapons and give your father two bags of gold to keep my head because I loved you."
Astrid widened her eyes at him "Hic-"
Hiccup sighs "don't Astrid, just don't."
Astrid turns around "fine then, I don't know what I can do make it better, but it seems your too stubborn to forgive me over a little prank" and climbs onto Stormfly and leave them.
After Astrid left, Hope looks her father's sad face and nuzzle his chest.
Hiccup rubs his eyes "you are the best thing that ever happened to me, Hope."
Hope smiles at her father.
They climb onto Toothless and fly back to Berk.
When they land, Stoick smiles "son! You been gone for two days! Where have you been?!"
Hiccup sighs "yeah dad I'm back and I been at Gaul getting away from the villager's scornful looks and words."
Stoick gaped "was it from the prank?"
Hiccup nods his head "yeah and I felt like I was back to being Hiccup the embarrassment and decided to run then face the villagers."
Stoick sighs "son, how do you expect to be Chief of Berk if you don't face the people everytime you make a mistake?"
Hiccup sighs "then I guess I won't be Chief because the villagers hate me!"
He walks away carrying Hope to his house on the hill.
Stoick bows his head and walks to the forge to talk with his best friend.
As Hiccup and Hope made their way up to their house hearing some of the villagers whisper
"He's such weak viking."
"Couldn't face the villagers after getting Astrid supposedly pregnant, which turned out to be a prank."
"Yeah and it was a hilarious prank!"
"How does he expect to be Chief, if he can't handle pranks being played on him?"
By the time he made it to his house, Toothless ended up tail whip some of them or roar in their faces to scare them off.
He set Hope down in her play pen that Hiccup stitched together with metal rods and fabric. Afterwards he headed to his room and grabbed the picture frame of him and Sophie with Hope and whispers "I miss you, Sophie."
(With Stoick)
Stoick entered the forge and says "Gobber! I got a problem with Hiccup!"
Gobber stops hammering on a sword to hear his best friend's problem and ask "what's the problem with Hiccup?"
Stoick sighs "have you heard about the prank that Astrid and Ruffnut pulled on him?"
Gobber gaped "of course I know about the prank! Hiccup spent ten days in here nonstop making twenty weapons for the Hoffersons as a pregnancy bride price."
Stoick gaped "pregnancy bride?!" "I already paid for all parts of marriage contract!"
Gobber sighs "pregnancy bride was Hiccup's choice in order to keep his head and be in good terms with Alistair Hofferson if he accidentally got Astrid pregnant from her forgetting to drink the moon tea, but Astrid didn't tell him it was a prank until after he woke up from fainting due to exhaustion."
Stoick sighs "but Hiccup just returned after two days of staying in Gaul alone. Said that he left because of everyone saying hateful comments about him supposedly getting Astrid pregnant before marriage and her twentieth birthday. And when I told him that he can't runaway from Berk when he makes a mistake if he going to be Chief
and he just yelled that he doesn't want to be Chief of Berk!"
"THAT'S BECAUSE HE'S HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS OF MARRYING ASTRID!"
They turn to the voice to see Valka standing there and gaped.
Valka sternly says "I just watched my son's dragon tail whip villagers left and right all the way up to his house because they were saying hurtful comments and no one came to his defense!"
Ingrid gaped "wait, Astrid never stood up him while she pranked him or tell him the truth until after he woke up from passing out?!"
Valka sighs "unfortunately no."
Ingrid widens her eyes "oh no, she did it again left him feeling alone after the prank."
Gobber freaks out "go check on him now!"
Stoick gaped "why?!"
Gobber panics "Astrid turned her back on him and made him feel like nothing during their engagement and he started drawing ways of committing suicide!"
They hurry up to Hiccup and Astrid's house to see Hiccup playing memory with Hope.
Ingrid sighs sits on her knees and hugs him "has Astrid come in at all since you came here?"
Hiccup shakes his head "no and honestly I don't want to see her or be around her for awhile."
Valka sighs "that's understandable, son."
Stoick sighs "I hope your not drawing pictures of committing suicide because of her."
Hiccup sighs "no dad, I been thinking about Sophie since I brought Hope inside."
Gobber sighs "did Astrid try apologize to you?"
Hiccup closes his eyes and says "yes and I refuse to listen to her apologies because I spent ten days building all those weapons and she didn't bother to tell me that it was a prank and listen to all of those hurtful comments and didn't stick up for me
and I come to realize that no matter what I do for villagers in Berk that when a threat is made to Berk and to save everyone is to hand me over to them, they all will agree to hand me over to them without a second thought including Astrid because hiccups don't mean nothing to a village so I think I'll just look for a new home tomorrow."
After Hiccup feed Hope and change her diaper and draw some more alone.
Ingrid talk to her daughter and Ruffnut about what Hiccup plan on doing tomorrow after their prank and Astrid had to come up with a very meaningful apology for turning her back on him again. She even reminded her of all the times Hiccup came to her defense as a fiance and she turned her back on him.
After the lecture, Astrid stayed at her parents house because Hiccup didn't want to see her tonight after feeling betrayed by her. So she laid in her bed crying her eyes out until she fell asleep exhausted.
Next morning she woke up screaming from something.
Ingrid came in wondering why her daughter is screaming for to see her holding her chest where her heart is.
Next thing is Toothless hovering outside Astrid's window lightly roaring.
Alistair opens the window and Toothless points to Astrid and makes for grabbing imitation.
Ingrid hands Astrid to Toothless and watch him fly off.
They hurry out the door to see Toothless land and carry Astrid inside Hiccup's house.
Inside Hiccup was holding his chest until Toothless brought Astrid inside their room and says "you have to kiss her in order to stop pain in your chest otherwise you both will keep a screaming due to soulmate bond being ripped apart until you feel like killing yourself."
Hiccup sighs and grabs her face and kisses her lips.
Astrid breaks the kiss due needing air. She breathless says "I'm so sorry, my love, my mate and we are mated to each other. Please forgive. I cried myself to sleep over how much I betrayed you!"
Hiccup hugs her "I felt like you didn't care about me when the villagers were scorning me."
Astrid sighs "and I'm sorry for not coming to your aid. I love you, Hiccup."
Hiccup sighs "I love you too, Astrid.
Astrid curious ask "can we make love as an apology?"
Hiccup kisses her lips and the two proceeded to make love.
End of flashback
Hiccup smiles "got to get ready for Hope's first birthday party coming up after winter.
He and Astrid get Hope ready for the day.
They eat breakfast as a family.
Astrid smiles drinking her moon tea.
Hiccup curious ask "how many times do you drink moon tea?"
Astrid smiles "three times a day and when we release ourselves more than once, I double the dose."
Hiccup smiles "your pregnancy bride is paid for."
Astrid blushes "well I'm sorry about making you build all those weapons."
Hiccup smiles "we may have our ups and downs, but we still find a way back to each other."
