Just want to say thanks to the support I am getting from this fanfic. Love seeing the amount of favourites and followers I am getting.

I have received a review from chapter one from a guest who called me a 'poof'. Gee thanks lol (sounded like Hiccup then).

Anyways I am getting reviews from CajunBear73 after each chapter most specifically, all I can say is thanks for the constant reviews mate, what you have put in them is giving me ideas to keep on writing more chapters.

To Smoe05, thank you for your review and your advice with my sentencing as long as Astrid's cooking well, we'll have to wait and see

To the two guest reviews thank you for your reviews very much appreciated

To all the review-ies that said that sparked or teased their interests, I hope I am able to keep your interest in later chapters.

Chapter 3: Meeting the rest of the gang

Hiccup and Astrid stood there for what seemed like hours but in reality it was only a few seconds. "Uh guys… you okay?" Ruffnut says slowly and now beginning to stand up.

Just as Hiccup was about to respond, the door opened again allowing two guys to come in they were busy chatting to one another when Tuffnut called out to them and got their attention.

"Guys, guess what you're not going to believe" Tuffnut says in a cheerful tone towards Fishlegs and Snotlout with a baby clasp to Fishlegs.

Snotlout stood for a second eyeing Astrid, which he didn't know it was her. He was looking at her up and down eyeing the girl in black pants and in hiccups green v neck shirt, whilst she stands with her back to him.

Snotlout walks up to her, not even noticing her wedding and engagement rings "Hey beautiful, where have you been all my life" he says while cracking a smile.

As soon as Astrid hears his voice she immediately grabs his advancing arm and twists it behind his back "Where I've been, is away from an asshole of you" she says with anger.

Snotlout instantly remembers Astrid's voice "Well if it isn't Astrid, finally come looking for a real man instead of that useless runt" Snotlout says trying to hide the pain that Astrid is putting him in.

Astrid twists his arm even more after hearing that comment about him and she gives a little more for calling Hiccup a 'useless runt'. Hiccup seeing how his wife was about to break Snotlout's arm quickly intervened, though he was quietly enjoying seeing his wife beat up his former bully.

"Milady I don't think it's wise to break Snot's arm even though he probably deserves it" Hiccup says calmly grabbing her arm and taking it away from Snotlout who instantly takes it back and keeps it close to him as he spins around to see who had freed him from Astrid's grasp, but he is shocked to see Hiccup standing there.

Fishlegs started moving closer as he hadn't move ever since the first time Astrid twisted Snotlout's arm. "Hiccup?" Fishlegs says quietly, but Hiccup had heard it and looked at him then nodded.

Just before anyone was about to say anything, they all heard Toothless bark, Hiccup looked at Astrid basically saying 'Do you want to explain or shall I?'.

Nothing was said as Astrid signalled him to move with the flick of her hand telling him she has it covered, and with that Hiccup went to the car to see why Toothless had barked.

As the room soon filled with silence, Snotlout was the first to break it. "What the fuck is happening?" with that Astrid replied with "Well we decided it's time to open an office here to make it easier for people this side of the of the state and to say hi" she says almost in a sarcastic tone but with a smile on her face.

"So the famous Astrid Hofferson decides she wanted to come back to Berk with a scrawny runt, to open what? Open an office block? Good joke babe" Snotlout says in a mocking tone with a smile and with the last comment he begins to laugh holding his gut.

"First off Hiccup is not the scrawny runt you remember him. AND DON'T CALL ME BABE UNLESS YOU WANT TO HAVE A BROKEN ARM!" Astrid speaks up, but Snotlout quickly adds "I will take it back when I see that he isn't" He laughs, and Astrid just scoffs at his remark before continuing "Secondly haven't you heard of our offices? Haddock's Medical Therapy?"

She says before Fishlegs buts in. "You mean that place where the people with lost limbs can get new ones and also get therapy of any kind." Fishlegs states while Astrid stood there nodding her head. "You and Hiccup own that?" Fishlegs says slowly and sounding unconvinced, Astrid again nodded.

"How can that be, you're not a Haddock, who would want to marry that runt anyways" Snotlout says astonished while ending with sarcasm at the end.

"Well for starters he is kind, caring, down hearted, god there are so many words to describe him" Astrid says dreamily, as the room stares at her in shock as no one expected Astrid to say that, especially like that.

"And secondly I am a Haddock for your information, hence my name being Astrid Haddock" she says as she holds up her hand showing off her wedding ring to the group with Hiccup's and her initials on it with the writing near it saying 'always and forever'.

"Oh and one more thing" she states as everyone stops looking at the ring and look back her, but before she spoke again the door bursts open.

"MOM" Bryan and Maria say in unison as they come running to her tackling her to the ground "Sorry milady, they really wanted to see you."

Hiccup says smiling as he begins to help her up slowly, as the teens just stood there with their mouths open not being able to comprehend what just happened.

"Don't worry, Toothless is still in the car, just being lazy and he doesn't want to get out" Hiccup says laughing as he then heard a bark from Toothless "Love you bud".

Hiccup yells still laughing. He helps Astrid to her feet just as Maria lets go of Astrid then goes over to Hiccup and stands in front of him "Daddy can you pwck me up pwease?" as Hiccup can't say no to her, he bends down and picks her up sitting her on his hip.

"What the fuck just happened" Everyone but the Haddock family and Fishlegs says slowly, before they could take the next breath in "Don't you swear in front of my children or so help I will tear you apart" Astrid practically yells at them while Fishlegs covers the ears of his child.

Her and Hiccup began hearing the mummers "Sorry" all at the same time. "So…" Hiccup says wondering what to say next. "Well aren't you going to introduce us to them" Fishlegs states happily "Only if you introduced us to your little one" Hiccup smiles. As the silence of the room slowly but surely decreases.
