A/N: Hello guys, just so you know I still don't know if I got the job. However, if I do get it, I'll try to update once a week like I've been doing.

Also, nothing really exciting in this chapter. It's just one of those chapters that gets you ready for what happens next.

Valka had been giving Spitelout tips for months on how to get Unn to notice him. Well, get to notice him in a positive way. Every time he flirts, he always has to flex his arms or try to point her beauty in an annoying way. Valka knew that this was going nowhere, looks like little sister has to step up for big brother. While everyone was eating at The Great Hall, Valka approached Unn before she left. "Unn, how are you?"

"Oh, hey Valka, I'm fine. Just trying to avoid your brother, he's been acting weird."

Valka laughed nervously and said "yeah, I know why he's doing that. He's trying to flirt."

"That was flirting? He's pretty bad at it."

"Tell me about it, I keep telling him how to flirt, but he won't listen. He tries to do what I told him, but then he gets nervous and…you know, just starts being him."

Unn pursed her lip and crossed her arms. She looked at the floor and taped her fingers on her arm. "You know, when you put it that way…..it's actually kind of sweet." Valka smiled, maybe she just help her brother's love life. She better get a prize for being the best sister ever for this. Unn smirked a little and nodded, "okay, I'll give him a chance."

Valka clapped and jumped a little on her toes. "Great! That will be so great! I think you two might be good for each other."

"We can only hope."

~oOo~

"Alright son, now if a person says that they didn't buy something from a merchant, but you find the object in their home. What do you do?"

"That's easy; make the person pay for what they stole."

"Yes, but what if The Merchant put that object in the home to frame the customer so he can get extra money."

"Um….."

"Stoick! You can't hesitate, pay attention."

"Why are you pressuring me?"

"Stoick!" they heard a young woman's voice yelling from outside of the house. "Saved by the horn," Stoick whispered right before seeing his wife run in.

"Stoick I have great news!"

"You're pregnant!" The Chief guessed. Valka just cocked a brow at him. "Nooooo, I'm not pregnant, but I got Unn to get my brother a chance to court!"

"Really? I didn't even know that Spitelout was looking for someone," The Chief said.

"Well, he was really only interested in Unn, but he needed my help. Anyway, the man can't flirt to save his life, but I was able to talk to Unn."

"That's very fascinating, Valka. Now Stoick-"

"Enough dad! We've been at this for hours! I need a break!"

"The only time when a chief takes a break is to die! Now, if The Merchant-"

"Dad, I have had enough chief practice for one day." The Chief bit his lip and took a deep breath. "Alright, take a break, but after dinner we are going back to practice."

"Thank you," He said and walked out the house.

~oOo~

"I don't understand this; they have been married for three years. Why don't they have children yet?"

"Oh for Thor's sake Shoutlout! Is that all you think about? If you'll get grandchildren? You know, marriage is more than just having children." Shoutlout rolled his eyes at his wife and said "well, that's why we got married."

"Yes, but our marriage started horrible compared to our daughter's."

"Which is why we should have had grandchildren by now," Shoutlout said to his wife.

"Don't worry dad, you still have me." Spitelout said trying to break another argument about his sister's marriage.

"Spitelout, shut up. I'm worried because Stoick needs an heir. If Valka can't give him children, then they have to get a divorce."

"You think that our daughter is barren?"

"Well, can you think of another reason why she's not getting pregnant?" Shoutlout saw his wife and son look down to the floor. Spitelout sighed and Mrs. Jorgenson took a seat. "Oh gods, not Valka, not my daughter. If she is barren-"

"If? She is barren." Her husband interrupted.

"She'll be looked down upon by everyone!" Mrs. Jorgenson continued. "She'll be the first woman to be divorced by a chief! What are we going to do?"

"All we can do dear is pray for our daughter's womb. Pray that she'll give birth to a strong child and for a great blood line that will start with her."

Valka was knitting in bed when she heard her husband and father-in-law walk in the house. She continued her work in the dim light from the candle on her bedside. Stoick sluggishly walked up the stairs and collapsed on his side of the bed.

"Rough night at chief practice?" she asked not leaving her eyes from the fabric. She heard him groan something with his face buried in the pillow. "Just to let you know, Stoick. I didn't get any of that." He gave out another loud groan and rolled his head to the side of the pillow.

"My dad is killing me."

"Oh it can't be that bad."

"Valka, I knew chiefing would be hard, but this is ridicules! He has to be making it hard for me on purpose!"

"Maybe that's a good thing. It will make it look like being chief is a whole lot easier than you think." Stoick rolled his eyes then got up to get dressed for bed. Valka put her knitting kit away when he returned to the bed. She slid down and stopped when the pillow met her head. She blew out the candle and started to fall asleep, but didn't when she heard her husband mumble something.

"What did you say?"

"Do you think something's wrong with my dad? You know, since he has been pressuring me to learn how be chief."

Valka sighed and answered with her eyes still closed. "I don't know, maybe. Can we just talk about this in the morning? You're tired, I'm tired. How about we just sleep?"

"Yeah, your right. Maybe I'm just paranoid."

"Stoick I want to sleep."

"Right, sorry."

"No you're not."

Stoick leaned over and hovered over her. He saw that she still had her eyes closed from what he could tell by the little bit of light they had. He noticed how the moonlight hit her from their window. How the light made her pale skin give off a white glow and making her brown hair lighter. "Can you stop staring?" Stoick was a little stunned that she knew. "I can feel you staring at me, it's kind of creepy," she continued with her eyes still closed

"Creepier than the fact you can feel me staring at you?"

"So you were staring?"

"Why you little…." Stoick grabbed his wife and pulled her towards him. She giggled at him and felt her back pressed against his chest. She turned her head to look at him and smiled. Now that her eyes were opened, he saw that her light green eyes shined brightly in the moonlight. "Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?"

"You've told me a few times."

"Well you are," Valka smiled and gave him a quick kiss before turning her head away to sleep. The last thing she felt that night were strong arms around her and a heartbeat patting her back.

A/N: Yeah, a little cute moment at the end...what? I didn't want the whole chapter to be boring.

Also Unn is a real Nordic name that means "The Beloved One". I Just want to throw that out there for a little FYI.
