A week has passed since the incident in Hiccup's hut. He has been having a lot of nightmares recently, but Astrid has always been there for him whenever he woke up screaming or crying.
One day, everyone except Hiccup was at the clubhouse having breakfast when Snotlout spoke.
"Look guys. I just wanted to say I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have said all those awful things to Hiccup. I know what I did was wrong. Can you guys please let me see him. I want to apologise to him. I feel really bad." Snotlout said to them. Everyone stared at him. They thought for a moment.
"Fine. You can see him. But if you hurt him in any way, I will make you pay." Astrid said fiercely. He nodded with wide eyes. That scared him. He knows she could be really scary when she is angry, so he was definitely not going to do anything that will make her mad. After they were done with breakfast, Snotlout went to Hiccup's hut while the others stayed at the clubhouse. He took a deep breath and opened the door. He saw Hiccup lying on his side facing the other way, but when he walked inside, Hiccup turned around. His eyes widened when he saw Snotlout.
"What do you want, Snotlout?" He said bitterly.
"I came here to apologise. I shouldn't have said all those mean and horrible things and I'm really really sorry. I hope you can forgive me... but I understand if you can't." Snotlout said sincerely. Hiccup was silent. He stared at him and thought for a moment. After awhile, he finally spoke.
"I hope you know that what you said really hurt me. But you are my friend, and I can't stay angry at you for so long. So I forgive you, Snotlout. But I want you to know that I will never forget what you did to me." He said firmly. That brought a small smile on Snotlout's face. He was happy that Hiccup forgave him for doing something so awful. He has learned his lesson, and he knows he would never make the same mistake again.
"Thank you! Thank you so much, Hiccup! I am never going to hurt you like that again! I promise!" Snotlout said with joy. That made Hiccup laugh a little.
"And... I'm sorry I pushed you. I shouldn't have done that." Hiccup said with a small frown.
"That's okay. I deserved that anyway." Snotlout said. And then they both chuckled.
"So... are we good?" Snotlout said putting out his hand. Hiccup looked at him and smiled.
"Yeah. We are good." Hiccup said, shaking his hand. They smiled at each other happily.
