Prompt: "Hiccup tries to do a romantic proposal but fails miserably but Astrid still accepts in the end," sent by an Anon on Tumblr.

Summary: He had it all planned out, but it started raining, someone was choking, the decorations were soaked. It failed even before it began, but Astrid didn't care. All she wanted was to be with him.

Rated: K


You

"Babe?" He heard Astrid call out and scrambled to hide the thing he was currently working on causing a few things on his desk to fall and a flurry of paper adding into the mess.

Startled by the noise, she quickly opened the curtain separating his work room from the rest of the forge, her clothes drenched and her eyes filled with concern. She raised a brow, her hand on her hip, as she saw Hiccup nervously smiling at her, trying to regain his balance.

"O-oh, good mornin', milady!" He had his hands behind him, on his desk, as he gave her one of his goofiest, nervous grins. "What brings you here on this fine day?"

"Hiccup, it's raining," she said, her hands now folded above her chest as she gave her beloved an incredulous look.

"What?!" He exclaimed before faking a cough. "I mean, what?" He repeated, calmer.

"I'm just here to tell you that Gobber's choking on some part of his pan flute. He said to tell you something along the lines of "Sorry, I can't help you with the…" something." She shrugged. "I couldn't really understand while Tuffnut and Snotlout were trying to either shut him up or punch his stomach to get the part out of his throat."

Hiccup slapped his hand onto his forehead, muttering, "Idiots."

She kept looking at him incredulously. "Is there something I should know?"

His head shot up, a look of horror on his face. "Wha- No! Nothing. Absolutely nothing."

"Mm-hm? Are you sure because, we've been together for five years, and I can pretty much tell when you're lying. Granted, you're not very good at it."

Suddenly, Ruffnut and Tuffnut bursted in, clothes wet from the rain.

"Hey, Hiccup, the Terrible Terrors ate those flower decoration thingies for your proposal," the male twin said.

"And the giant, heart-shaped paper mache hearts you wanted the dragons to hang up when you come in got soaked in the rain," Ruffnut added. "Oh, and it's raining."

Hiccup looked at the twins, obviously peeved. "Guys," he said as he pointed towards Astrid.

They looked at her, eyes slightly widened, and back to Hiccup. "Oh," they said in unison. "Whoops."

"We'll… uh… Leave you two alone," Ruffnut said before her and her brother ran outside, fearing death.

Hiccup sighed exasperatedly. "Well, there goes the proposal."

Astrid just stood there, baffled at what she had just heard. That was why he was so busy the past few days? And why everyone was acting weirder than usual. "Hiccup?"

He looked at her as she walked towards him. "Yeah?"

"You were going to…?"

He smiled, looking a bit tired. "Astrid, I had it all planned out. It was supposed to be romantic and.."

She cut him off with a punch in the arm causing him to wince in pain. Then, he felt her arms around his neck and her lips on his own, soft but meaningful. "Hiccup, you didn't have to go all out. It would've been fine if it was just a simple, traditional proposal."

Sighing, Hiccup held her hands. "You know I don't follow tradition, milady," he said. "You don't deserve a 'simple' proposal. You're more than simply my girlfriend. You're special, so I tried to make it special for you."

She gave out a short laugh, squeezing his hands gently and affectionately. "It doesn't really matter to me, Hiccup. I just want you."

They smiled at each other before Hiccup leaned in and kissed her lips. "Well, at least I could still give you this." He parted their lips and turned to his desk, desperately looking for something. Astrid raised a brow as he grabbed something.

He placed a Deadly Nadder pendant into her hands and flashed her a goofy grin. "I've been working on it for a while. I just didn't know when to give it to you."

"Hiccup, it's wonderful," she replied. "Thank you."

"So is that a yes?"

She jumped and gave him a hug. "Yes!"

His hands were on her waist and hers were on his shoulders as they were laughing. Suddenly, they heard someone cough. They turned and saw Valka, Hiccup's mom, standing in front of the open curtain.

"Mom!" Hiccup jumped, separating him and Astrid. "Uh, w-what are you doing here?"

"Oh, I was supposed to get both of you because Gobber's still choking. We need all the help we could get," she replied with a smile on her face.

"Uh, yes, yes," Hiccup stuttered. "Let's go, Astrid."

The two were walking out when Astrid felt Valka's hand on her shoulder. She turned to face her, seeing that she kept on smiling.

"Welcome to the family," she said, hugging her son's betrothed.

Astrid smiled, as well, hugging her back.

Hiccup looked at the two, a grin plastered on his face. The two most important women in his life in front of him. He thanked the gods.
