Chapter 3:

That night i for some reason had the worst headache and no one for some odd reason wouldn't look at me. I wondered what had happened why i have such a headache or why Snotlout looked so guilty but the oddest thing was Astrid was looking so disappointed. All the riders looked as if something happened after i had that drink , my curiousity was kicking in and i needed to know what happended.

I looked to Fishlegs and said "Fishlegs mind clueing me in on what happened?".

The large Viking started shaking as if he saw the Screaming Death just inches away from him. Fishlegs looked around seeing no one making eye contact and he was more nervous then ever. I walked over even though id rather sit down Astrid was looking at me as if i was about to fall into the fire.

Fishlegs still wouldn't talk and i said "Fishlegs come on terrible terror got your tongue whats going on?".

The twins began to laugh for some reason and Snotlout wouldn't look at me. Fishlegs looked as if he were reaching his breaking point and was about to spill everything. He ran behind Meatlug trying to hide but he wasn't fooling anyone.

He finally broke and said "AFTER YOU DRANK SO MUCH OF THE WHINE YOU STARTED ACTING REALLY WEIRD!"

Astrid became angry and shouted "FISHLEGS!".

He looked to her then back at me and said "You were out of control you kicked Ruff and Tuff , you were tackled by tuff so you wouldn't be able drink anymore and i had to put you in a hold".

Ruff rubbing her now sore butt said "yeah you can kick pretty hard with that peg leg".

I was shocked by what i was told i wouldn't in my right mind kick let alone hit one of my friends but then again i wasn't in my right mind. Tuffnut started laughing at his sister and she picked up a some old drift wood and hit her brother over the head. I walked back over and took a seat next to Astrid and looked to Fishlegs. For some reason i thought there was still more i haven't been told everything yet.

Astrid handed me another bottle of water and i looked up to Fishlegs and said " ok other then kicking and acting really weird is there anything else Fishlegs".

I waited for his answer and popped the cork off the bottle and began to have a drink. He watched me and stayed behind Meatlug and said "you called Astrid a beautiful girl".

My eyes shot open as soon as i heard that and spat the water out in to the fire and looked at Fishlegs astonished. I looked to Astrid who turned away from me and i couldn't help but think did i say something to offend her. fearing what else had happened made me not want to find out.

Tuffnut laughed and asked me "so Hiccup you and Astrid tell me something does Astrid have the so called dragon master whipped".

I looked to Tuff confused by the question and Ruff looked to me and said "you know ...does she have you wrapped around her finger?".

I was kinda catching on to what the twins ment then i finally caught on and said "no absolutly not".

The twins laughed and tried to do their best impression of me and said "Ow Astrid what was that for".

I shook my head hearing that and Fishlegs came out from behinde Meatlug and said "umm you also laid down and your head was on her lap".

I started to feel scared and said "woah woah wait what no i ... oh great Thor".

I covered my face with my hands thinking what else did i do or say then started remembering something a feeling. I felt someone wiping my head with something soft and their touch was gentle.

I turned to see Astrid was blushing red and and she said "they're wasn't anything on hand so i let you rest your head on my lap".

Tuffnut laughed and said "yeah and she almost skinned Snotlout alive too for giving you real whine he thought it was just water".

I looked to my cousin who was giving Tuffnut the death glare and i thought about it and concluded that's probably why he looked guilty. I started feeling more exhausted then the first time walking up hill to my house with my prosthetic leg.

I walked over to Toothless not wanting to hear more of my crazy antics and jumped up on his back. Astrid looked to me with concern and i assured her i would be fine but then Fishlegs jumped on Meatlug and they hovered over.

He looked to me and said "were Just gonna make sure you get home alright i know your dad would blow his stack if he found out what happened".

I thanked Fishlegs and we took to the Sky and headed home back to the Village we were soon Joined by the other riders and they headed back home to their houses. The Night air definitely helped clear my head of the groggy feeling and i became more relaxed then what i was feeling after finding out after i drank that whine.

Fishlegs made sure i got in without my father knowing so i wouldn't get into trouble Toothless and i looked through the window seeing my father sleeping.

I turned to Fishlegs and said in the quietest voice "hey Fishlegs um about tonight and what happened between Astrid and i did i do anything or say anything else to her?".

Fishlegs looked to me and said with a smile while mimicking the same volume as me "No other then complementing her you were the most peaceful with her".

Feeling at ease that i did nothing that would get me knocked out by an angry shield maiden i waved by to Fishlegs and Toothless and i went up to my window and went into my room.

Fishlegs and Meatlug headed home and Toothless and i went to bed i was exhausted and my head definitely felt like i got hit with a hammer my head pounded so bad. Toothless burned a ring on his rock and i went to bed and passed out glad it was my birthday and i didn't have any chores tomorrow.
