After running the proposal over in his head over and over again. He finally knock at Astrid's door, hoping she'd be in the mood to go for a flight. After waiting for a few seconds, the door opened to reveal Astrid, but in a different way. Instead of her normal braid, her hair was down and wavy and her normal blue sleeveless shirt was replaced by a black long sleeve shirt. Hiccup couldn't help but stare at her.
"Oh, hey Hiccup." She greeted him.
"Hey, you want to go for a flight?" Hiccup asked as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Sure. That actually sound really good right now." Astrid stepped out, closed the door, and began walking toward the stable, where Stormfly was patiently waiting for her. "Where we heading?" Astrid asked as she mounted Stormfly.
"Fly toward the grove." Hiccup said as he mounted Toothless and took off toward the forest. Astrid smiled as she followed suit on her dragon. Once she reached to grove she realized that she didn't see Hiccup. She saw Toothless but no Hiccup. Suddenly a pair of hands covered her eyes and she couldn't help but laugh at the person who decided to pull this little trick.
"Well, it would appear that I've lost my sight again. I think I might need a little bit of guidance." Astrid said. Hiccup chuckled as he started guiding her toward the edge of the water, where he had a basket and a fur blanket set up. Once he took his hands off of her eyes, he heard her gasp. "Hiccup, this is beautiful. What's the occasion?" Astrid asked as she took his hand, walked over to the blanket, and sat down.
"Can't I just do something nice to surprise my girlfriend?" Hiccup asked as he open the basket.
"Absolutely." She responded as she reached up and kissed him. He gladly welcomed the gesture and returned it with just as much passion. After a few minutes of kissing, Hiccup finally was able to pull the food out of the basket. "This is all too much, Hiccup." Astrid said as he continued to pull all kinds of food from the basket.
"Nothing is too good for milady." Hiccup cheekily replied. Astrid laughed as he sat back and smiled at her. They turned around when they heard Toothless and Stormfly playing in the trees. The two of them spent hours talking and laughing with each other. Once he noticed the sun going down, he decided it was time to make his move. He got up off the ground and offered his hand out to Astrid to help her up. She smiled at him, gladly took his hand and didn't let go. "Follow me." He said as he began leading Astrid up a small mountain of rocks that overlooked the grove and had a perfect view of the sunset.
"Hiccup, what is up with you?" Astrid asked as they came to a stop.
"I have a surprise for you." Hiccup said. "Astrid, I want to thank you for all of the support you've given me since this whole thing with Viggo started. You are the most important person in my life…" Hiccup was cut off by Toothless giving a small squawk of disapproval. They both look at him and laugh. "Well she is... Toothless. Anyway, you have been one of the greatest gifts I have. I can't wait to see where the future will take us both." Hiccup then got down onto one knee. Astrid covered her mouth with her hands as she felt the tears begin to prick her eyes. "Astrid Hofferson, would you do me the greatest honor possible and marry me?" Hiccup asked as he pulled out the ring.
"Yes." She said. Hiccup stood up and wrapped his arms around her in a giant hug. When he pulled back, Astrid placed her hands on his face and brought it to meet hers. Hiccup took this as an opportunity to slip the ring onto her finger. Toothless and Stormfly started cheering for their riders, then went back to playing.
"That was easier than I thought it was." Hiccup said in a joking matter.
"How long have you been planning this?" Astrid asked.
"Asking you to marry me or this lunch?" Hiccup cheekily asked.
"Take your pick." Astrid responded with just as much sass.
"Well this lunch, all night. Marriage proposal, since you got your vision back a few months ago." Hiccup honestly responded. "But I was looking for the right time to do it."
"Well, you picked a perfect time. As always." Astrid said as she put her hands on Hiccup's face and kissed him again. His arms found their home around her waist and pulled her closer to his body. Once they broke apart, they realized that the sky was getting darker and the stars were coming out.
"I should really get home, but we will have to tell the others at some point." Astrid said as they began walking over to their dragons.
"You know, you could always just stay with me." Hiccup said in a suggestive tone. Astrid seems to ponder the idea for a moment.
"I could…" She said as she smiles at what he was suggesting to her, whether it was intentional or not.
"Please…" Hiccup asked in his childish voice and looked at her with his sad puppy dog eyes.
"Alright… Fine." Astrid smiles at him and his childish ways.
