Chapter 3 - Is this a date? Hell no!
NORMAL POV
It was now 12:30 and for Astrid and the gang it was lunch time, they had an hour and a half. Thanks to Berk university being localized on the old forest of Berk, they weren't any kind of business close to it, and so you had to drive to go anywhere. Because of that most of the students choose to eat on the college cafeteria, it wasn't gourmet but it wasn't bad either.
Right now Astrid and the gang were seating on one of the tables on the corner, just like all of the sports students did.
" Have you heard this year there will be a scouting for the national team, imagine how awesome it would be if we got to play in it" said an excited Fishlegs while eating is sandwich
" I can't say about you, me I know I will be chosen. I mean I'm the best quarterback Berk had in years" said Snotlout while flexing his muscles
" Ahahah to bad you are not the smartest" a laughing Tuffnut said while highfiving his sister
" Yeah you are probably the dumbest" said Ruffnut
" Like you are one to talk, the only reason you are still on the baseball team is because Fishlegs lets you copy from is paper" an angry Snotlout shouted
" So what at least I know what I'm doing on the field! All you do is grab the ball and march until you see a post"
" Oh shut it! It's a miracle you are in the team at least I'm the captain. You are just another player" smugly said Snotlout
Getting irritated with the bickering Astrid yelled " will you two shut up or will I have to beat some sense into you guys!"
Immediately the guys stopped, trying to ease the tension between them Fishlegs said " You and Ruffnut are also being scouted aren't you, because of lacrosse? And Tuffnut isn't baseball also having a national team this year, so you can also be chosen"
" You are right, I have been hearing some rumors about it, but the coach hasn't said anything yet" said Astrid while Ruffnut agreed
" Same here me and Eric have also heard some murmurs but we don't have any kind of confirmation yet" a somewhat serious Tuffnut
Grinning Snotlout said " I guess this year we will all bring a trophy to the college"
" We don't eve know if we will be chosen, and you are already talking about winning" said Fishlegs
" Haven't I told you to be more confident with yourself? Damn Fish sometimes you still act like a nerd!"
" I'm just stating the facts. And stop calling me a nerd. If anything you should be happy I'm a nerd, cause if I weren't one you would be still only high school"
" Well if it wasn't for me, you would still be a completely nerd with only Hiccup as a friend!" Shouted Snotlout
"Sometimes I wish I was still with him! At least he had a brain" also shouted Fishlegs
Getting mad , Snotlout jump of the table and grabbed Fishlegs by the colar " Care to say that again"
Even though Fishlegs had gotten stronger he was still no match for Snotlout
As usually it was Astrid that stopped the almost fight, whacking Snotlout on the head she said " Stop behaving like an alpha male! If Fishlegs wants to be friends with Hiccup he can"
" Not like that's going to happen anyway... You saw it Snot, Hiccup is different from what he used to be" said Ruffnut
" Yeah he didn't seem very afraid of you, plus now he tall as hell!" Said Tuffnut while making gestures with his hands
" Yeah you look like a dwarf next to him" a smirking Ruffnut said
" Yeah he did"
" Shut up you two! He is not that tall! Plus he is still a walking stick" argued back Snotlout " In fact wait till until I get my hands on him... I will making remember why should he respect me"
" Do that and I will also make you remember" said Astrid with an angry scowl
Furring his eyebrows Snot asked " Why are you defending him?"
" Cause we are not teens anymore and we should start behaving like adults. Plus Hiccup could get you arrested, don't you remember who is his father"
To that Snotlout just laugh " Yeah I know who is father is, I also know that my uncle doesn't give a shit about what happens with him"
Ignoring him, Astrid said " And you should also know that if someone caught you, you could lose you scholarship"
"As if someone would rant me out"
" But are ao sure about that, that you would risk your future?"
Sensing he was losing the argument, Snotlout smirked a sexy smile, " why are you so worry about me Astrid ? Babe if you want me you just have to ask"
" What the hell are talking about! There is no way I will ever go out with you" now Astrid was seeing red, how dare he think she was flirting with him!
Astrid was about to beat Snotlout up, when a voice made her stop in a tracks.
"Finally were have you been Henry?"
'That was the voice of that guy that Hiccup was talking, and isn't Hiccup's name Henry' thought Astrid, turning to the voice she saw Hiccup with a box of food on is hand seating on a table full of guys. Not sports guys, just normal and slightly geeky guys.
" Yeah, yeah calm down will ya Frank I had to go to the bathroom" said Hiccup opening th box and taking a sandwich
" What were you doing that, you took forever. Are you turning into a girl?" Asked Frank with a smirk
Instead of being embarrassed like Astrid thought he would be, Hiccup just copied the smirk before replying " Sorry to disappoint you Frankie but your dreams haven't come true yet"
Frank just laugh "Ahaha and that's why I like you Hiccup"
" And here I thought it was because of my good looks and physic" sarcastically said Hiccup while flexing his arms
This time the whole table laugh, and even Astrid couldn't help but crack a smile.
Seeing that Snotlout followed her stare until he found out why was Astrid smiling. Growling he pick up is half full can of juice before sending it strait at Hiccup, hitting him on the chest and soaking him on the process.
" Now that's a view to laugh about" yelled Snotlout while pointing at Hiccup "Once a loser always a loser, isn't that right Hiccup"
Soon almost the whole cafeteria was laughing hard.
Concerned Astrid looked at Hiccup, but he simply got up the table whispered something on Frank's hear before leaving the cafeteria.
Getting of the table, Astrid looked at Snotlout before saying " You make me sick" then she left with only a thought on her mind 'I need to find Hiccup"
Unfortunately that would not happen ...
HICCUP POV
After leaving the cafeteria I went to the bathroom to try and clean up the juice from my shirt, well that didn't work out so I decided to go home. It wasn't like I was forced to go to class unless they were to make an experience of something.
Looking at the clock that was on my kitchen I saw it was almost 14:00, I remember I promise Astrid I would take her to coffee.
I don't know if i should go because I did get humiliated by Snotlout, but I remember that Astrid looked at me with a somewhat concerned look, so I guess it wouldn't be fair of me to just bail.
I still had two hour so I decided to take a shower and to chance clothes. I pick up a pair of black pants, some sneakers and a green t-shirt. I also grabbed my grey leather jacket. It was much but I did feel comfortable on it.
While showering I started to think were would I take Astrid, there was no way I could just take her to the cafeteria, which meant I had to pick her with my bike cause I didn't have a car.
I just hopped she wouldn't make fun of me because of it.
After taking the shower and dressing up, I had concluded that the best course of action for this afternoon was to take Astrid to the "Cave". The "Cave" was a small Café almost a street after the tattoo shop, he had gone there a few times with Shadow and the guys after a long day on the shop. The owners were an couple on their forties but they looked like a pair of rock and roll singers the way they dressed and behave. I was sure Astrid would like them, so I had at least one thing going for me.
Looking at the clock I saw I only had half an hour until I had to pick up Astrid. I decided to leave early then later.
Before leaving however I put more food on Toothless plate, you never know what could happen... ' As if she would ever go for a guy like me' I thought
A loud purr got me out of my thoughts " It's amazing how every time I put the food on the plate you appear only seconds later buddy. You got to teach me that"
Toothless just lift his head of the plate for a moment and give an big smile cat style.
" Well buddy I got to go, I need to pick up a girl" to the weird look Toothless was giving me I said " It's not a date! And you don't have to look like the world is ending ... Jeez have a little fait in me"
With that I left my apartment, getting in my bike I started the engine, all the while thinking ' I just hope I survive this day'
ASTRID POV
It was now 15:45 and I was outside of the dorm waiting for Hiccup. I had told Ruff I was going to be out. One think I like about her was the fact that she didn't judge nor did she ask questions. It was great in times like this.
Not that I need to lie on where or who I was going . It was just that I am tired of problems and fuss, so I think that the best way of avoiding that it's to simply ignore it.
I really hope Hiccup, not only for the coffee but because I feel the need to get him to know that I didn't play any part in today's humiliation. And the funny thing is that I don't know why do I have that need...
Just then a sound of a motorcycle made me stop my line of thought.
Watching the bike stop at the dorm's front I became slightly curious. I didn't know no one who had a bike like that, so maybe it was just a guy to pick up one of the girls ... I couldn't see his face because of the helmet. I notice however when he wave at me.
Looking behind me I didn't see anybody so I became really confused, until of course the biker lifted his helmet...
" Hiccup ?" I asked even though I already knew the answer
He merely waved again, before saying " Yeah it's now do you still what the coffee or not ?"
I started walking towards him. When I reach the he gave me another helmet and then said " we are going to small café I know, okay?"
Finding my voice I said " yeah no problem"
" Well then just lime they say hold on tight" Hiccup said before starting the bike
I rested my arms on his waist and my head on this shoulder. Was this a date ? Hell no. But he sure look kind of hot with a bike ...
And that's a wrap... Sorry but the actual "date" is only on next chapter
Hope you liked and don't forget to review and to follow...
Next chapter, chapter 4 - wonderful meetings and awful timing
Stay tuned for more of " the guy with a fury tattoo"
