Deal
Hiccup slowly and quietly made his way though the village of Berk, trying not to be seen.
Earlier that day, he'd hit a Night Fury, found it, released it and fainted.
So, as he slowly snuck up the stairs to his house, he looked around, finding that nobody had noticed him yet.
Hiccup opened the door to his house quietly and shut it before slowly walking towards the stairs when he suddenly stopped.
"Hiccup?" His father, Stoick the Vast and the chief of Berk asked. "Dad," Hiccup responded, feeling kinda dumb of being caught by his own father.
The large man turned around to face his petite son. Truth being said, the man's arm was thicker than the boy.
"I have to talk to you son..." The chief said and clasped his hands together.
"Oh Thor, this is gonna end badly," Hiccup muttered. Stoick shook his head with a smile before saying, "No, your gonna love this..."
"Great..."
"I've assigned a contract about an arranged marriage. Your getting married in a few weeks..."
Hiccup's eyes shoot wide open and he stared at his father. "What?! Who's the unlucky bride?!" He half yelled in panic.
"That Hofferson girl you've liked since you where six..." His father told him with a satisfied smile.
"A-Astrid? I'm not going to marry her! She'll kill me the second you let her in though the door!"
Hiccup heaved for air. His head felt dizzy and his body felt light. Before he knew it, a pair of strong arms caught him and everything went black.

Hiccup woke up when he heard someone or something knock on his door, - violently.
He signed. He didn't want to get out of bed. But, when he heard the person say, "Hiccup, open the God damn door before I'll go and get you myself!"
The boy whimpered and jumped out of the bed, pressing himself against the darkest corner of his room.
The door flew open and shut with a bang. Angry footsteps where heard downstairs before they made their way upstairs.
Hiccup, as if he already felt the pain from her punches, let go of his tears.
Astrid entered the room with a mean, dragon-like face. Her fists where clenched together hardly, ready to punch anything and anybody.
Hiccup shouldn't have whimpered when he saw her beginning to leave the room because she turned around and found him pressed against the corner, in the dark.
"Hiccup!" Astrid yelled and begin to walk towards him. "Why me?! What in the name of Thor where you thinking?! Why not Ruffnut?!" The blonde asked in a yell, grabbing the boy by the collar of his shirt and swinging him to the floor.
Hiccup sobbed loudly and looked up at the girl he'd loved since he where six.
"Astrid...please, just listen to me-"
"I don't want to hear anything from you! Do you even know what you did?! I have to change my name and become a useless Haddock like you!" Astrid yelled at him.
Hiccup turned his head down towards the floor and noticed that there was a small patch of wet wood.
"I'm sorry...but, I didn't chose you. I got to know this last night. It wasn't my fault..." The auburn boy trailed off with a whisper, crying even more than he was before.
"Wait, so...you mean that it wasn't you? Then, who was it?" Astrid asked, her voice sounding a bit calmer that it where before.
"Dad," Hiccup said, barely audible.
The blonde stood there for a while before slowly walking up towards the crying mess of a young boy on the floor.
"Hiccup," Astrid whispered. She grabbed his by the elbows and pulled him up. Hiccup's head hung low as he stood there, Astrid now holding his arms.
"I'm sorry."
Astrid led him over to his bed and sat him down. Hiccup still cried but not as heavily as he did a few moment ago.
The blonde placed her hands on his cheeks and dried away the flowing down tears.
Astrid lowered her head to look into his but when she caught his eyes, he looked away.
Astrid signed, lifting her head, pressing her lips against Hiccup's forehead first before going down to his nose and lips.
The boys eyes snapped open when he felt her lips press against his. But, only a second later, the kiss ended.
"W-w-what was t-that f-f-for?" Hiccup shuttered. Astrid, however, didn't respond. She just slowly wrapped her arms around his torso and laid her head on his shoulder.
Hiccup say there, wide eyed and mouth hanging slightly, not knowing if she actually was sorry or if she played.
"Hiccup..." Astrid begin as she slowly pulled away from him. Hiccup looked down at his hands which where starting to dry because of the tears that have fallen into them earlier.
The blonde signed and placed one of her hands on his while the other landed under Hiccup's chin, lifting it up.
"I'm really sorry for what happened a while ago. If I'd known that it was your father who arranged us, I wouldn't have yelled or thrown you half way across the room."
Hiccup shook his head. "I deserved it. I tried to stop him but after a heard dad say that was was...engaged...to you, I fainted," Hiccup said with a small smile.
Astrid smiled back at him and just hugged him again.

"Hiccup?" Twenty-year-old Astrid asked, sitting between her handsome husbands legs. "Yeah, M'lady?" The chief asked.
That's right. Ever since the day five years ago when Stoick the Vast had arranged a marriage between the two, they'd gotten married, and been together ever since. But, things didn't turn out as great as they used to be. A few days later after Hiccup's father announced the marriage to him, he got into a fight with a huge dragon, almost dying.
Then, things came up years between with other tribe clans, dragons, people ect. But, not even a few days ago, Hiccup had found his mother, lost his father and almost his wife. He also grew out of his awkward state of mind and became one of the most good looking on the island. So did Astrid.
She also grew out of her anger issues and became soft, - only for Hiccup of course - but still is a fighter inside.
"Have you ever though that if you...father wouldn't have gotten us married, then we wouldn't be here today?" Astrid asked softly an leaned her head against Hiccup's shoulder.
The young man and chief smiled down at his wife, leaning down to place a kiss on the side of her head.
Astrid smiled heartily. "Yeah, I've though about it. But, as it turns out, it was for the better. Because if it wouldn't, then I wouldn't have you as my beautiful wife," Hiccup said, snaking an arm around her thin waist.
They sat on a small island Hiccup had found before the battle begin. For some reason, he'd named it Itchy Armpit. Most likely it was Toothless.
Oh, I didn't tell you, did I?
The Night Fury Hiccup had released actually became best friends and he named him Toothless for some God damn reason. Mostly because his teeth retract but anyway...
"Oh, stop it you," Astrid said with a girly tone and grabbed Hiccup's flight suit, - another invention making him able to fly beside his dragon - mashing her lips against his.
The blonde turned her whole body towards her husband and placed her leafs on each side of his hips, cradling him.
Not even when they heard the dragons moan in disgust, did they pull away. Astrid only kissed him harder, practically climbing over him to get him down on the ground.
Their tongues danced while Astrid's hand fisted into Hiccup's hair.
But, when Hiccup pulled away, out of breath, then Astrid backed down him a little until she could lay down on top of him, her head laying on his chest.
Hiccup leaned his head back against the soft grass and closed his eyes, loving the weight of his wife into him. If he actually had to be honest, she didn't weight much.
(A/N: Ask me and I comment if ya don't know.)
"I love you, babe."
"I love you to, M'lady."
(A/N: And they lived happily ever after...bla bla bla, anyway, I'm still sick, I was at the doctor yesterday and he took some blood samples. It felt like he totally drained me out. I also got to know with blood type I've got! Yay, A2.
Anyway, I'm feeling much better than I did a few days ago because of the medicines he gave me.
I'm sure that I'll be health until school starts again in Monday. Thanks for all the comments, I really appreciate it. Bye.)
