After httyd 3

While transitioning from full dragon immersion to none at all had been emotionally draining, the day to day hadn't changed much. Things took longer, but Hiccup had made many new inventions that had filled some of the gap. They had saved a few dragon products but they were mostly living as they had before. Though Hiccup and Astrid still went for small flights with their flight suits. However when Hiccup went to join his wife for their flight that evening, he found her looking out over the ocean without her suit on. He wrapped his arms around her waist, head on her shoulder. "Did you forget something milady?"

"No. All the important things are here."

"We were going to go for a fly tonight."

"I've been thinking about that." she turned her head and kissed his cheek. "I don't know if it's a good idea to go for flights anymore."

He turned her so he could look in her eyes, his hand brushing her cheek. "What changed?"

"I just think that something could happen to us. If there is a strong gust or a rip in the yak hide. We have a lot of people depending on us."

"We have been doing this for years though. We know what to do."

"When we first started we also had our dragons to save us." She put her hand on his face, "Please no more flying. Unless necessary. Actually no unnecessary risks period…. For awhile."

"Astrid…"

"Please." She started playing with his hair right behind his left ear, knowing it would distract him a little. "We need you in one piece." she whispered.

The distraction had worked because it took him a minute to register what she was saying. She wanted him to be more careful, she didn't want to fly anymore and she had said 'we need you'.

"Astrid are you?"

She nodded and took his hand, placing it on her stomach. "Your going to be a dad."

He couldn't voice his joy. Instead he picked her up swinging her around.

"Your sure?" he asked when he put her back down,

"Yes Hiccup." She replied rolling her eyes, "Gothi thinks a couple months. So right around sno"

He cut her off with a kiss. "I love you Astrid Haddock." he got down on his knee and kissed her stomach, "I love you too little one. Try not to give your mommy to much trouble."

Astrid laughed."If our child is anything like you then I don't think that's possible."

"Hey!"
