So it seems as though the drama has somewhat settled down and has had given me a chance to write once more, as I enjoy this and find this relaxing. Thanks for the reviews, but I, well my brother, had picked up on something which I find strange that I'm not sure anyone else did.
In the first chapter I had Stacy for the child and Maria as Astrid's mom then said Maria is the child. I would like to point out that from now on the Maria is the child since I have used it as her name for the chapters after it. I will change Astrid mom's name when it comes to it.
Now for the reviews.
CB73: Well we might just have to wait and see how the reunion goes between both sets of parents.
Smoe05: Thanks for giving me encouraging words as well as some criticism it is greatly appreciated and I will take it under my wing when writing more chapters. I will try and be more subtly instead of bluntly putting it straight out there.
BrawlerGamer: It does look like Stoick wants to make amends with them but I'm not sure what the plan is with him just yet as really I'm making it up as I go along.
Chapter 6
The next morning
The door bursts open and in comes Bryan, Maria and Toothless.
"Daddy! Mommy! Wake up!" the kids say as they jump on top of Astrid and Hiccup. The two parents gasp for air as the kids land on them, but Toothless only jumping at the end of the bed.
"What is it kids?!" Hiccup says worriedly as the kids sit up and glance at each other with their hands behind their back.
"Well…" they bring their hands from behind their back now showing a birthday card and two packets of Cadbury chocolate "Happy birthday mom and dad" they finish off smiling.
Hiccup and Astrid are relieved that nothing is wrong, the feeling is then switched with happiness that the kids remembered their birthday, well mainly Astrid's as Hiccup was born on the 29th of February but they celebrate it on the same day as Astrid's, March the 1st.
"Thanks my precious children" Astrid says smiling then she grabs both Maria and Bryan in for a tight hug. Hiccup soon joins in on the hug.
Once the hug was over Bryan and Maria took a seat in between as they give the card to Hiccup. He opens it up and begins to read the card out loud.
"Happy Birthday Mommy and daddy, we hope you have a good day but you will because you have us and toothless! Love from Bryan and Luke"
Hiccup finishes the card and places it on the bed side table then he gives Bryan and Maria a kiss on the top of their head.
"That's beautiful kids" Astrid says smiling looking down at the kids giving them a kiss just like Hiccup did.
"How make and get these because we never got any of this when we left home?" "Fwshy helped us as well as Rwff" Maria says smiling as she looks at Astrid while Bryan nods in agreement.
'Remember to thank Fishlegs and Ruffnut later when I see them next' Hiccup thinks to himself. They lay like that for an hour making it now midday before they decided to get out of bed so they can get lunch.
A few hours later making it now 6:30pm
"Hey daddy" "Yes Maria?" Hiccup says looking down at Maria who is snuggled up to him on the couch while the family watch the movie 'Lion King'. (No matter age you are Lion King is still a great movie even if Mufasa dies saving Simba which is still sad no matter how old you are, but also 'Up' sad I hope you know why!)
"Daddy can we go out for tea since its yours and mommy's birthday" Maria looks at Hiccup with almost puppy dog eyes. 'I can never say no to her' Hiccup thinks.
"Sure, what do you think guys?" Hiccup asks. Bryan looks at him and nods eagerly while Astrid takes a little bit before nodding. She knows Hiccup has a weakness for Maria's and her own puppy dog eyes and finds it cute.
"Yeah sounds like a good idea" she finishes smiling. Hiccup pulls out his phone and searches for nearby bar's and bistro's and finds 'The Den'.
Hiccup already knows the owner and think it's about time he pays his god farther a visit. As the movie finishes he grabs the remote and turns the dvd player and the tv off.
"Alright guys lets pile in the car and go out for tea" "I'll put them in the car, make sure you bring your wallet this time" Astrid gets up smiling gabbing the kids and starts to head out the front door.
At 'The Den'
The little family find a table in the corner of the place and they begin, meaning Hiccup and Astrid start to figure out what kind of food the kids and themselves want for dinner.
A young boy walks up to their table "Hi, I'm Jason I'm your waiter for tonight. Can I get you anything to start off with as you chose your meals for tonight" he finishes with a smile and pulls out a small notepad and pen.
Astrid opened her mouth but Hiccup had cut in before her "Say Jason, would the boss be in tonight?" "Gobber, he usually is, why is it you're asking?" "I was wondering if you could tell him something for me?" Sure sir and what could that be?" "Tell him that stump of his is better than his singing. If he asked who says that, tell him his god son says so." Hiccup smiles and looks at Astrid.
As Jason leaves Hiccup looks at Astrid smiling and shaking her head "I think this is going to get loud soon. And I was going to ask why tell him, but I remember you saying that he is like a father to you" she says as she rests her hands on Hiccup's
They then look at the kids playing with the salt and pepper shakers. Hiccup looks over to the manages door and see Jason about to enter. He turns back to Astrid.
"5"
"4"
"3"
"2"
"1"
As he finished counting down the door slams open and out comes Gobber and immediately he spots his godson "HICCUP MY BOY" he yells running over, well more like quickly hobbling over.
Before Hiccup could even get up Gobber pulls him in for a bone crushing hug. "Gobber…. Can't…. breathe" Hiccup finally gets out.
Gobber slowly let's go of him and pulls a chair over from a nearby table.
"Lad where have you been for the past few years, I was worried as hell." "Sorry for that Gobber… things just happened to quick and we" he looks over to Astrid and the kids behind him who are still playing "had other matters eating our time over the years"
"Ah I see lad" Gobber says.
'Thank god Gobber is so understanding' hiccup thinks in his head. "Well hello there Astrid, it's great to see you again lass" Gobber finishes smiling.
Gobber looks behind the two and spots two small kids playing. He notices how the boy looks like Hiccup while the girl looks like a mix between Astrid and Hiccup.
"So lad and lass, are ye babysitting because if ye aren't, I think miss Hofferson here" gestures to Astrid "might want to have a word with ye lad"
