Heather Together

by Cke1st

What would it take to realistically get Hiccup away from Astrid and into someone else's arms? If that someone-else washed ashore in the middle of the movie, instead of later during the CN series, things might have turned out very differently. I wrote this because several people requested it. Rated T for a bit of lime flavor at the end; the language is all K. Heathercup.

17. Chapter 17

THE END

A/N
This has become my fourth-most-popular story, to my surprise (stories that pair Hiccup with someone other than Astrid aren't supposed to be popular in this fandom). On April 11, 2016, it passed the 80,000-hit mark. I'm glad you all like it that much.

Somewhere around January 29, 2017, this story crossed the magical 100,000-hit line, my fourth story to do so. I deeply thank all of you who have done all that reading.

In early March 2021, the story passed the 200,000-view mark. To my readers, again, thank you.
