(A/N: Spoilers from How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. 1:27:20 - 1:29:07)

Slowly stepping up the snow covered steps in front of the grande Stoick statue, she adjusted the white fur cloak behind her slowly when she came to a halt.

Clasping her hands together, her heart raced as she looked at the young man in front of her, dressed in white from head to toe, - except for wearing his father's brown cloak over his shoulders - gold details on the cuffs of his wrists and shoulder emblems holding the furs, - just like she had it.

A simple green flower crown littered with small white baby's breath flowers rested atop his head, brining out his auburn hair even in the wintery-white sun.

She watched as he lifted birth of his hands and held them out for her to take. Astrid looked at them for a moment before looking up at him, a smile on her lips and her sapphire eyes glistening.

Lifting her hands slowly, she carefully but them in his, immediately feeling his thumbs caressing the back of her hand.

Chills ran up her back and she felt the hairs at her nape stand up from the shocks sent through his hands.

Hiccup was smiling at her, his teeth showing slightly and she saw that adorable gap between his two front teeth.

Nodding at him, she watched as his face lit up with happiness and she felt his hands squeezing hers for reassurance.

Both looking down at Gothi, they watched as she lifted a piece of long, white fabric with gold detailing, - something that had been passed through many generations of chiefly wedding ceremonies before.

Somewhere beside them, Gobber's happy sobbing was heard and the aged man wiped his eye with his wooden, prosthetic arm holding a pink flower bouquet containing cherry blossoms, - the same flowers Astrid had around her head.

Gothi lifted her staff and lowered it over the fabric wrapped around their conjoined hands. Slowly lifting it, she put it down with a small thud and Hiccup stepped forward without hesitation.

Giving her a smile, he leaned in hastily and pressed his lips against hers, kissing her with a slightly open mouth.

"Fellow Chief and Chieftess!" Gobber cried out and everyone started cheering.

Carefully letting go of her hand, he slipped his from under the fabric and lifted it, placing it on her cheek.

Drawing back, he swiped his tongue against hers once before slowly pulling away and turning towards the crowd of people cheering, - their people.

Snotlout tried to contain himself but burst out crying when Tuffnut pulled him. "Come, cry into my full, thick beard," He said and pressed Snotlout's face against his braided hair under his chin.

Beside them, Fishlegs was ugly crying and sobbing, frantically looking around for someone to hug. "Ugh, it's so beautiful!" He exclaimed.

"Gross," Ruffnut said, her voice monotone. Fishlegs turned towards her and threw his arms around her tiny frame, crying into her chest.

"Okay, you win," Ruffnut started and wrapped her arms around him. "I like sensitive guys," She said, hugging him.

Hiccup chuckled at them before overlooking his people, hand squeezing his wife's.

Somewhere in the distance, he heard someone say, "Finally, right?" And looked at the blonde beside him. She gave him a smile before looking out onto the crowd again, somehow still not able to comprehend that Hiccup was her husband.

•••

Standing on the cliffside, they looked out towards the sea, thinking about their dragons and when they could meet again.

The chilly air blew threw them and Astrid shivered, stepping closer to her husband and wrapping her arm around his waist. Resting her head against his shoulder, she felt his arm wrap around her back and land on her shoulder, his thumb caressing the bare skin on the side of her neck.

Exhaling, he turned his head towards her and pressed a kiss into her hair. "Thank you," Hiccup started softly, nose buried into her hair.

Astrid pulled back softly and faced him, giving him a questionable look. Hiccup continued with a small smile, "For being with me through everything so far. I'm so lucky to be able to call you my wife," He finished and kissed her forehead.

Astrid smiled softly and closed her eyes, laying her head back on his shoulder. "You're welcome," She said, her voice low and sincere.

Hiccup smiled at her and pulled her closer, squeezing her shoulder, letting her know that he would forever be there for her.
