Internet Connection

S: They live across the world from each other, but that didn't stop these two youtubers from falling for each other.

A/N: I've been seeing this youtube thing a lot where Hiccstrid are some famous youtubers, and I thought it would be fun. So, here we go! Most these chapters will most likely end in a "Video".

Hey, I am also looking for someone to beta for me. So if anyone is interested, just let me know!

Chapter One

Astrid stared at her computer screen, her face resting in her hand, head tilted, and a smile on her face. She was currently on skype with her boyfriend, Henry "Hiccup", or known on youtube (and really every other social networking site out there) hiccuphorrendous.

It was Toothless's fault that Astrid even found him. He had just posted a video and it happened to pop up in her suggested videos, and Toothless just looked too cute to avoid.

Astrid laughed just thinking about the video. Shit my cat does. It was a video mostly all about Toothless and the weird things that black cat does, but there had also been some clips of Hiccup filming one of his other videos and Toothless interrupting. The minute she had seen Hiccup's face and heard that voice, she knew she had to watch his other videos.

She was attached. She spent an embarrassing about of time on his channel watching his videos. Astrid had taken it upon herself to message him and let him know how great she thinks he is. She wasn't expecting him to answer, he does have a lot of subscribers. He probably gets this all the time. He answered her though, and she had never felt so excited.

Fangirled. Astrid fangirled. She may or may not have kept the message.

"I'm just going to go ahead and admit now that you're AMAZING. I'm not going to lie, I might have gotten a LITTLE excited over the message. You're my favorite, and I can't believe you've watched my videos!"

It was cheesy, but it was enough to get them talking. They exchanged numbers, and talked all night. Three months later, they were making it official. They skype and talk on the phone everyday, and although it's long distance, they're happy.

"Milady."

Hiccup's voice brought Astrid out of her thoughts. She shook her head and looked at Hiccup "Yeah babe?"

Hiccup spun a bit in his chair, Toothless sitting in his lap. "Are you planning on going to VidCon?"

Astrid raised an eyebrow, nodding her head "Well, yeah. I've gone the past three years. I can't let the fans down, Hiccup! Are you?"

"Yes! Yeah!"

Hiccup's smile grew, and Astrid's heart leapt. How could this possibly happen when she hasn't even met him yet? Meet him. MEET HIM. That's what he's trying to get to! Astrid wouldn't have been able to explain how excited she was to finally meet him "Hiccup! Babe, we'll get to meet!"

"Yeah!"

"Please tell me Toothless will be there, too."

Hiccup snorted, lifting Toothless off his lap "I guess he can come. I don't know if he's deserving enough."

Astrid rolled her eyes with a laugh "Toothless is definitely deserving! I have to thank him for leading me to your channel."

Toothless let out a meow, pawing at the keyboard before Hiccup let him go "It always leads back to the cat.. What about Stormfly? Will she be there?"

Astrid looked over her shoulder at her bird, Stormfly. She wasn't as well known as Toothless, but her bird had made few appearances in her owners videos.

"Of course. But they'd have to stay in the hotel."

Hiccup nodded, looking down at Toothless. He tilted his head and smiled "Toothless needs friends. Stormfly and him could be best friends." Astrid let out a laugh as she stood to let her bird out the cage. Hiccup raised an eyebrow, watching her "What's so funny?"

Astrid fell into her chair, Stormfly now perched on her shoulder "Just imagine it, okay? Toothless and Stormfly becoming friends, we leave them alone together, and come back and Stormfly is just riding around on Toothless's head."

Astrid let out an unladylike snort at the image in her head, causing Hiccup to smile "Hey, it could happen. He's completely harmless."

The couple fell quiet, both too caught up in their thoughts.

They were going to meet. In just a week, they were finally going to meet. After three long months, they were finally going to meet. The thought kept running through her head. Their fans knew the two talked. Astrid's knows that she's practically in love with the guy, but did they know that the two were actually together? That will be a surprise for both their fans.

"Can we make a video when we meet?"

Hiccup smiled at her "I was hoping so."

Astrid leaned back into her chair, staring at her boyfriend "Everyone is going to be jealous when they see us together."

Toothless walked across the keyboard, sticking his nose in the camera and meowing. Hiccup let out a laugh, grabbing his cat and nodding "Yeah. Jealous of me, because I have you."

Astrid stepped off the plane, taking a deep breath.

California. She was in California for VidCon, and she was only seconds away from meeting Hiccup for the first time, and she was excited. She spent four and a half hours on a plane, and she needed air and to stretch.

She pulled her phone out of her pocket and smiled down at the message: Are you here yet? I'm getting anxious! I'm waiting for you at baggage claim.

Astrid is tough. She's a Hofferson. She was born tough. But she's not even scared to admit that she was excited to finally be meeting her boyfriend. She doesn't care if her best friend is going to think she looks weak.

She quickened her steps wanting to get to Hiccup as fast as she could. She hates acting like a girl. Anyone who knows her knows she hates acting like a girl. Hiccup especially knows, and doesn't seem to care about it at all.

Astrid stopped when she saw the baggage claim. Her heartbeat sped up. Is this what being nervous feels like? She wouldn't know. She's never been nervous a day in her life. She let her eyes scan the people, looking for him.

When her eyes finally landed on her, she couldn't keep the smile off her face as she started walking towards him.

This was the moment both of them had been waiting for for three months.

"Gods, this better be worth it."

Hiccup turned right as she got through the crowd of people. That smile that Astrid grew to love took over his face the minute his eyes landed on her.

The minute the two reached other, Hiccup was pulling her to hm. Astrid let out a laugh, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"Is this really happening?" she asked, pulling away from him to look up at his face "Like.. Is this real life?"

Hiccup laughed, taking his arms away from Astrid and motioning for her to get her bags.

Astrid grabbed her bags, and turned to Hiccup who was now holding Stormfly's cage and looking inside at the bird. He smiled when she sqwuaked at him "Well hey Stormfly. Toothless will love you."

Astrid swung her bag over her shoulder and smiled at him and her bird. She could already tell this was going to be a good few days.

"Hello all you people watching this!" Astrid gave a wave to the camera before shooting Hiccup, who was sitting out of view of the camera, a sideways smile "Today I have someone with me that most of you know, HiccupHorrendous!"

She grabbed his arm, pulling him in to view of the camera. He gave all her fans a smile and a wave "Hey all of Astrid's followers! And I guess fellow mutual followers."

Astrid smiled, pulling her legs up into the chair and reaching towards Hiccup's hand "So, most of you have been curious or had your suspicions that something was going on between Hen – Hiccup – and I. It started as strictly friendship, but it quickly led to more."

Hiccup stared down at his and Astrid's intertwined hands "We've been dating for three months now. And before you all ask anything, this is the first time that we're meeting."

Astrid nodded in agreement, pulling her hand away from Hiccup's and reaching forward "And speaking of asking.. We decided to make our first official couple video. Theboyfriend tag! We also made a how well do we know each other video which can be found on Hiccup's channel. Don't forget to check it out! You can find a link to it below in the description." She let out a breath, smiling down at the questions before looking over at Hiccup "So babe, you ready?"

"Ready as I'll ever be, milady."

Astrid turned in her chair, facing Hiccup "First question, Who is my best friend?"

Hiccup stared at her, a frown on his face. He knows this. He's met her before "Oh Gods. What's her name? Rile -" Astrid shook her head "No. Not Riley. Ruffnut."

"Do I play any sports?"

"Soccer, track, and volleyball. You're such a little athlete."

"Who wears the pants in this relationship?"

Hiccup snorts "For right now, you, boss lady."

"Damn right. Okay, last question. What was your first impression of me?"

Hiccup let out a laugh, smiling at her fondly "That ones easy. I thought – and still do think – that you were the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. You were nice and funny, and I fall for you more each day."

Astrid threw her notebook down, a blush taking over her face "Yeah, it was short. Hiccup's video took up too much time because he talks a lot." He opened his mouth to protest but she only shook her head "If any of you are at VidCon tomorrow, we will be there. Look for us! We will be doing an actual Q and A while together, so please, tweet us or comment some questions on our videos and we'll do our best to get to them all."

She clapped her hands together, her smile never leaving her face "That's it for this video. The next one should be up in a few days before VidCon ends. Don't forget to look for us!"
