Cherish

Valka knew her son had a difficult childhood in Berk. He told her how he always wanted to fit in with the rest of the village, but everyone just thought of him as a nuisance. It's sort of hard to believe when everyone is always seeking his help or guidance, now. Granted, he just became chief, but it seemed like he was used to it, like it was a normal occurrence.

Ever since becoming chief, her son had been looking exhausted. He had to help with repairs in the village, making saddles, helping people with their dragons. His schedule was packed. Valka was lucky enough that her son managed to have time to spend with her. Of course, she wanted to catch up with her son after being absent for all his life.

She could see him brighten up whenever he mentioned his girlfriend, Astrid. He spoke about her in such a sincere and loving way, as if he was speaking to her instead of his mother. That made her grin. She knew Astrid was a wonderful person and such a great choice for Hiccup, and the best thing was that the two loved each other so much.

The way they looked into each other's eyes, even when everyone is around, she could sense the affection they had for each other. It reminded her of how she and Stoick were when they were still young.

Her smile dropped when she thought of her late husband. She sat in the living room of their just rebuilt home, Cloudjumper beside her seat. If only he was still there. She hadn't seen him for twenty years and when they did reunite, he just had to leave her life… This time, it was forever.

It was before sun rise. Tears were threatening to fall, but she wiped them before they could. She sniffed, Cloudjumper's head going up, noticing her state.

"It's fine, Cloudjumper. I'm fine," she said.

Cloudjumper stared at her for a moment before heading back to sleep. She stood up, dusted herself off, and headed upstairs to Hiccup's bedroom to wake him up to start his day and duties.

Opening the door to Hiccup's room, she peeked inside and noticed Toothless, who was still very much asleep. She smiled as she walkedn in turned to look at the bed. There she saw two bodies on the bed.

Astrid' head was on Hiccup's chest, her arm wrapped around his stomach. Hiccup's chin was on top of her blonde hair, his hand in hers. The two were asleep.

The sight made her smile even more. The two were fully clothed. Even when they're sleeping, they're still so affectionate. The love that they radiate made Valka nostalgic. All those memories of her and Stoick keep racing back to her.

She realized that dreading his death wouldn't make anything better. After all, the memories and the love they shared stayed with her. Every touch, every word, every smile, she would always cherish them.

A single tear rolled down her cheek and onto the wooden floor. She wiped it off and shook her head. 'No,' she thought. 'Stoick wouldn't have wanted me to cry too much.'

She looked at the sleeping couple one more time, her hand on the edge of the door and a gentle smile on her face. "Cherish her, son," she said softly before closing the door. "You don't know how long you'll have."

She didn't need to say that, though. She was certain those two would be happy together for a long time.

A/N: Here you go! Enjoy! :D
