Chapter 37

Astrid's mind stopped working. She was pregnant? How? She and Hiccup hadn't had sex for a week and...she was sick and throwing up before. Astrid inhaled deeply, her eyes on Dr. Lucas Richardson.

He pulled the pen that was clipped to his chest pocket on his surgeon coat and clicked the top, ready to write down her answers. "Can I ask...when was the last time you two had intercourse?" He asked, looking at the two off them.

Astrid wanted to say something but no words left her mouth. Hiccup looked her before his head turned towards the doctor. "About a week ago or so?" He said hesitantly and saw Astrid nod her head.

Dr. Lucas Richardson nodded and wrote it down. He turned towards Astrid and asked, "Have you felt nauseous? Sick?" He asked and she nodded. "I-I was feeling sick with a fever and I threw up...yesterday before everything happened," She said, her voice hesitant and she trailed off before gulping. "But, I'm on the pill. How is it possible?" She asked.

Valka looked at the blonde.

She felt sorry for her. Not only had she been worrying about Hiccup and thought he would die to the point of trying to commit suicide but she had also just gotten the news that she was pregnant.

Dr. Lucas Richardson coughed softly, "Contraceptive pills are only 98% effective and it can shoot through. Timing has a lot to do with the effectivity and if you missed taking it one day or the same hour, it won't work the same. Besides, birth control is never foolproof and should be used alongside condoms. Anyway, what happened has happened. If you want to book an abortion, just talk to one of the nurses and they'll help you," He said softly.

Turning towards Valka, he sighed, "Sorry, Mrs. Haddock but visiting hours are over soon," He said before walking out.

Valka nodded and turned towards the two, looking at them. "Listen, both of you. If you need anything, tell me and I'll be there. I'm sorry this happened to both of you but if you decide to keep the baby, I'll be more than happy to be there for it and you two," She said and started to grab her things.

Hiccup looked at her. "Thank you, mom. Astrid and I need to talk about it. We'll get back to you soon, I promise," He said and turned his head towards Astrid. She nodded and looked down at her hands.

She started to pick at her nail polish as Valka gathered her things and walked up to Hiccup. "I'll be at home if you need me," She said and leaned over the edge of the bed, pressing a kiss to the top of his head.

"Thanks, mom," Hiccup said softly and watched her as she rounded their beds and stopped beside Astrid. "Everything will be fine, dear. I know how it feels, I promise. Stoick and I planned Hiccup but he was born three months early and he almost didn't make it. I'm here if you need to talk to me about anything," She said and placed her hand on her shoulder.

Astrid gave her a faint smile. "Thank you, Valka. I really appreciate it," She said and lifted her arm.

The two hugged for a short second before Valka backed off and slowly walked towards the door. "I'll be back tomorrow," She said, looking at them one last time before walking out of the door.

Hiccup watched as she left. His look lingered at the door before he turned his head towards Astrid. "Astrid?" He asked softly, his voice just barely over a whisper. Astrid sighed and turned her head away from him. "Astrid, please. Look at me," Hiccup begged.

"I'm sorry," She whispered out and he barely heard her. "Why are you apologizing, M'lady? I'm the one that's supposed to apologize," He said and reached his left arm out. Astrid turned her head towards him and looked at him.

She didn't say anything. She just turned her body towards him and placed her right hand into his.

"Astrid, I love you. I know that our lives aren't at its best right now but it will get better. I want you to be beside until we grow old. I want to tell my kids about all the things we did and how we got through it. Maybe it's not the best time to start a family right now but I want this with you. I want this baby, Astrid," Hiccup said, his right hand now resting on her cheek.

Astrid sobbed and leaned over the railing of the bed, wrapping her arm around his neck and burying her head onto her favorite place, - the spot between his neck and shoulder. She cried into his neck as she tried to speak.

"I-I want it too b-but I...I'm s-scared," She said, sobbing. Hiccup pushed her off of him and he looked at her.

Tears were streaming down her cheeks and he raised his hands to put them on her cheeks. He brushed his thumb under her eyes to dry her tears off and she leaned into his touch. He hushed her before leaning in and pressing his lips against hers for a split second.

Hiccup pulled back and rested his forehead against hers, eyes closed and their noses touching. His hands were resting on each side of her neck, holding her close.

"Listen to me, Astrid. Our lives are a mess right now but I promise you, it'll let better and when it does, we'll be fine. This whole pregnancy thing might've come a little sooner than expected or wanted but it's okay," Hiccup whispered.

"I know. I'm just sorry for all of this," She said and pulled back, gesturing around the room.

"I know. We'll be fine, though," He said and sat back into his bed, covering himself with the blanket.

"Yeah, I hope we will," Astrid whispered, starting the movie they'd been interrupted from.
