ASTRID'S POV

I wake up to the high pitched screeching of Stormfly outside my house.

"Ok. I'm coming, I'm coming!" I call to her, putting on my boots. The morning air is brisk, so I breath it in. "Today is a big day Stormfly!" I say as we take to the sky.

The dragons have officially lived among us in harmony for five years so this Snoggletog plans to be one to remember;, and it happened to fall on mine and Hiccup's annaversery this year. I think back to the box of tools that lay in my room. Two weeks worth of fish went into trading for those tools. I plan to give them to Hiccup this evening during the party.

I notice the position of the sun and decide to head back to Berk. When I land in the training ring, I realize I'm late. Everyone's conversing in a circle. I walk up to Fishlegs, and tap him on the shoulder.

"Hey Astrid. We are discussing food and decorations for the party." He says.

I turn my head to Snotlout who is arguing with Tuff about games for the evening. That's when I notice Hiccup is missing from the circle.

"Hey, where's Hiccup?" I ask Fishlegs.

"No one knows. We thought he would be with you. Happy anniversary by the way." He tells me.

I thank him, but really I had been hoping Hiccup would be the first to say something. That's how it should be I suppose, I mean its OUR annnaversary. After an hour, I was put down for decorating with Hiccup. As I was turning to go, Snotlout came up with Ruff to congratulate me on my annaversery too. After that I had had enough. Where was my boyfriend? Had he fallen off the edge of the earth? I sure hope not. He is probably busy taking care of some chief duties.

HICCUP'S POV

I lay in the sun sketching a picture of Toothless, who was napping in the shade. My plan for the day was to keep it as much of a secret as possible. The proposal, I mean. I had decided to go with what my father had done; asking my mother on a holiday. What better time to ask then on Snoggletog.Astrid's all time favorite holiday.

I decide I've piddled enough time away, and head back home to get decorations I had made for the party. When I arrive, a ton of people come up to show me the foods they have prepared. I notice Astrid setting out candles in the back of the Great Hall. I take a deep breath, put on my best, but crooked smile, and head over to her.

"Hey, Astrid. I brought more decorations. Where do you want them?" I ask, and lean down to give her a kiss on the cheek. She smiles and takes a few boxes from me.

"Over by the dance floor. You know today is a big day." She answers.

"Yeah I know, I can't believe this will be the fifth annaversery of dragons spending Snoggletog with us. Time flies." I say trying to cover up my unease.

I know she's talking about our annaversery, but I just couldn't handle saying anything about that without my voice cracking. I could barely make it through mentioning the celebration tonight. My nerves are really starting to get to me. I avoid her questioning gaze, and set the boxes down.

"Yeah, it has." She says with a slight edge in her voice. "Im going to go help Fishlegs before he eats all the food."

Then she runs off. I stand there dumb founded, and puzzled.

"What was that about?" I ask myself refocusing on the boxes.
