Future Chief!

Contrary to what the people of Berk believe, Hiccup's intelligence coupled with his adventures and experiences on other islands has more than prepared him for his role as the future chief of Berk. As a matter of fact, at the ripe old age of 16, Hiccup is already putting plans in place for Berk's future.

Chapter 1: Agenda

Hiccup has been doing some serious thinking and planning lately. Since waking up and recovering from the battle with the Red Death, his father had been harping on him about being the future chief. Even though his father didn't think he was taking this responsibility seriously, he was. What his father didn't understand was that Hiccup is a planner. Yes, he is great at problem solving on the run but he is second to none with planning. Hiccup put together an agenda of the things he felt he would need to be a successful chief and to lead his people forward.

The first item on his agenda was a wife. He knew that his second in command would automatically fall to his wife. He also knew he would have to produce an heir to take over for him when it was time. Of course there was only one person for him. Well, low and behold, it just so happened that there was only one person for her also so the first item on his agenda was easily acquired.

*****FLASH BACK*****

"HHHiiicup, wwwe have to stop." Astrid said shakily even as she pressed the back of Hiccups head harder to her so his lips would continue to lick and suck on her neck.

Hiccup and Astrid had become a couple once he had awakened from the battle with the red death. They were together constantly. Astrid couldn't figure out why she thought this fishbone of a person was the most handsome boy she had ever seen. He could put butterflies in her stomach and goose bumps on her arms just by smiling at her. Unlike most of Berk, she loved his mind. He was absolutely brilliant. She found out something else about him when he was in a coma after the battle. Since she was with him constantly while he was recovering, she got to see him shirtless all the time. She noticed that even though he was thin, he had a six pack. She could not figure out how that had happened since no one ever saw him training or exercising. Once he was awake and healthy again, she found out that even though he had skinny arms, he was quite strong. He would lift her up as though she was nothing. She could see the definition in his arms when he would pick her up. She found out that her new information concerning Hiccups body was not a good thing for her sleeping habits. When she slept she dreamed of those arms around her. When she saw him, her eyes would unconsciously go to his stomach where she knew what was hiding there. She also loved the fact that no one else knew this secret but her. No one else knew her boyfriend was secretly buff. Well he wasn't buff but he did have muscles and he did have a nice six pack. Astrid had almost started drooling whenever she saw him.

Hiccup ignored Astrid's plea to stop and continued to drive her crazy as he attacked her neck. Astrid didn't know how he did this to her. It was as though he had some kind of power over her that turned her own body against her. Her body did whatever Hiccup wanted it to do. They were down at the cove and Hiccup had her pressed up against a large rock as he ravaged her. Astrid was clawing at his back trying to pull him closer to her. Hiccups own hands were busy kneading Astrid's butt. Astrid was moaning continuously as Hiccup caressed and stroked her body. Hiccup stopped and looked into Astrid's lust filled eyes. He saw that she needed release in the worst way. Hel, he needed release in the worse way but his concern, as always, was on the blonde beauty standing in front of him. Hiccup unbuckled her skirt and let it drop between them. Astrid sucked in her breath as she felt it drop.

"Hiccup, we can't!" she started to say but Hiccup just shushed her.

"Just trust me. Let me take care of you. Your virtue will still be intact when I marry you."

Astrid stared into the eyes that she loved so much and nodded. Hiccup picked her up and sat her on the rock. Again, Astrid was amazed at just how strong Hiccup was. Hiccup pulled her leggings and underwear off and before Astrid could say a word, he put her legs over his shoulders and was licking her in the very place that was aching so badly. Astrid head fell back and her mouth opened in a silent scream. She didn't know what to think. She had never heard of such a thing as what Hiccup was doing. If she thought Hiccup had control of her body when he was ravaging her neck, she now realized it was nothing compared to what was happening now. She was panting and having trouble breathing. She didn't even realize she had grabbed the back of Hiccups head and was pressing it harder to her core. Her body felt like it was going to burst. Hiccup stopped licking and went a little higher and sucked the hard little nub into his mouth. That was all she wrote for Astrid. She screamed out loud this time as her first ever orgasm hit her hard. She bucked and tried to get away from Hiccup as she was so sensitized down there. Every suck and every lick made her feel as though she would just come apart. Hiccup eased her down from her high very slowly. Astrid had no strength left and was practically falling off the rock. Hiccup picked her up off the rock and stood her on her feet, never letting her go. Then he picked her up bridal style and sat down on the ground with his back pressed up against the rock and Astrid sitting in his lap. He gave her gentle kisses on her face and cuddled her. Astrid had never felt this drained in her life. She should be embarrassed as she sat in her boyfriends lap, naked from the waist down but she didn't. He was whispering he loved her and was placing kissing all of her face. No, she didn't feel embarrassed. She felt loved.

"Astrid" Hiccup said "look at me please?"

Astrid, who had tucked her face into Hiccups neck where it was warm, and was on her way to falling asleep, looked up into Hiccups eyes as he started to speak.

"I love you. There is no other for me. You are who I want. I will love you until my dying last breath. Please say you will be mine? Please say you will share your life with me? Please tell me you will be the mother of my children? Please say you will do me the greatest honor of being my wife?"

Tears were pouring out of her eyes as she listened to him speak. Astrid, the tough shield maiden was still just a woman a heart. Hearing the boy that she loved pour out his heart to her touched her deep inside. Her heart was filled with so much love for him that it actually hurt. She could not make her voice work so looking up into those green eyes that had captured her heart, she nodded and reached up to the back of his head and brought his mouth down to her and proceeded to kiss him silly.

*****END FLASH BACK*****

So, Hiccup had successfully checked off the first item on his agenda. Well, she was not his wife yet but she had agreed so it was just a matter of time. He wished he could just marry her right now. He couldn't wait for her to be his wife.

While waiting to marry Astrid, Hiccup was not idle. All of his free time was spent on his ideas and plans for Berk's future. His father rarely saw him anymore. Even Astrid has been grumpy lately since she rarely gets a chance to see her fiancé. The other teens didn't understand why Astrid was so grumpy. Even though he had defeated the red death, it was still just Hiccup with his outlandish ideas and weird inventions. No, the other teens didn't understand what Astrid had come to comprehend. Hiccup was her soul mate. It hurt if she could not see his goofy smile every day. Just being around him made her feel as though everything was right with the world. She would just have to have a talk with him and let him know that she needed a kiss from him every day. It did not matter what he had going on and how busy he was, she was his fiancé, his soul mate and future wife. Dammit, she had needs that only he could satisfy. One of those basic and most important needs was to see and touch him every day. She laughed out loud as she thought about it. She knew once her man knew of her need, he would do everything in his power to meet it. Even if it meant climbing through her window to kiss her before he left out on an early flight. Yep, she loved her goofy Hiccup and couldn't wait to be Mrs. Haddock. She wished they could just get married right now.

Before starting with the rest of his agenda, Hiccup had some other plans and ideas he wanted to get started on. At the ripe old age of 16, Hiccup was the busiest person on Berk. He helped Gobber in the forge. He did chief training with his father, that is, when his father could find him. He and Toothless still traveled and explored new lands. While everyone else was content with the victory over the Red Death and the acceptance of dragons as allies instead of foes, Hiccup was ill at ease. Berk was still not safe and it was his job to make it so. While everyone else was living in the here and now, Hiccup was planning for Berk's future. His mind was a whirl wind of activity. He came up with plans for Berk's defense, food, health, safety, growth and of course dragons. He was in the middle of writing some of those ideas down when he heard the angry voice of the love of his life shouting.

"Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third, get your butt out here right now!"

Smiling, Hiccup put down his writing stick and walked out of the forge. He saw the blonde beauty standing there with her hands on her hips glaring at him. Everyone who was in the area stopped what they were doing to watch the confrontation thinking Astrid was getting ready to pound Hiccup into the ground. As Hiccup started walking over to her, Astrid started talking.

"Now look here Hiccup," Astrid began angrily. We need to have a serious conversation about mmmmfffmfmm."

Hiccup had reached Astrid and without missing a beat, grabbed her and started kissing her like there was no tomorrow. Astrid arms had immediately wrapped around him as she returned the kiss. Without breaking the kiss, Hiccup lifted her up and Astrid instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist as they continued to kiss. Astrid was making a mess of Hiccups hair as she ran her hands through it. When the kiss finally ended, Astrid looked down into Hiccups eyes with a goofy love smitten look on her face.

"You wanted to talk to me about something beautiful?" Hiccup asked her. He had started calling her beautiful as his pet name for her and she loved it. Astrid tried to put a coherent sentence together.

"Yeah, you uh, and I need uh, and then uh" Astrid stuttered.

"Yes my beautiful fiancé, I'm listening, what is it?" Hiccup said smiling up at her.

Astrid looked down at his adorable face in frustration

"Oh screw it." she said before smashing her lips back down onto her future husband's lips.

Smiling, the villagers went on back to their tasks remembering when they were young and in love. They still had misgivings about what kind of chief Hiccup would be but they thought it would be ok since they believed Astrid would be the one actually calling shots.

When Astrid finally came up for air, she continued to look down into the smiling handsome face of her fiancé.

"You know you can put me down now." she said smiling.

"I like you right where you are." Hiccup said as he started nibbling on her neck.

Astrid moaned and told him they had to stop since they were out in the open even as she tilted her head back giving him better access to her neck. Hiccup stopped his nibbling, to Astrid's disappointment, and whistled for Toothless. When Toothless arrived, Hiccup put Astrid on him and then hopped up behind her. They flew off and circled Berk a few times. This is exactly what Astrid wanted; Uninterrupted alone time with Hiccup. Hiccup directed Toothless to a cliff overlooking the ocean. Once they landed and dismounted Hiccup looked at Toothless and knew he wanted to go fish so he moved the lever into place locking his fake tail into place.

"Ok Toothless, go fish to your hearts delight" Hiccup told him.

Giving a warble, Toothless took off and headed toward the ocean to get some grub.

Astrid was always amazed at how well these two different species interacted. She turned and walked to the edge of the cliff where she sat down to look out at the view. Hiccup came up and sat behind her with his legs stretched out on either side of her. He wrapped his arms around her and she leaned back into him. She looked back at him and tilted her face up. Responding to her unspoken command, Hiccup lowered his head capturing her lips with his. The kiss started off soft and sweet but quickly escalated to hot and heavy. Hiccup loved Astrid's soft skin and could never get enough of touching it. This worked out pretty good for the couple since Astrid absolutely loved Hiccup's rough calloused hands caressing her body. Hiccup seemed to be obsessed with Astrid's breast. She had been embarrassed at first because she thought they were to small but Hiccup had quickly put that fear to rest as he would worship her breasts as though he couldn't get enough of them. He lifted her shirt up and started unraveling her breast bindings. When he was done, he cupped her small breasts in both hands, gently pinching her nipples between his pointer and middle fingers. Astrid had started moaning almost immediately when Hiccup put his hands on her skin. Her moans increased in volume as Hiccup continued to mold and knead her breasts. She put her hands on top of his and pressed them harder to her as though she was afraid he would remove them from her breasts. Hiccup lifted his mouth from hers and started attacking her neck. Astrid's neck was one of her erogenous zones and she eagerly tilted her head giving Hiccup better access. Between the sucking on her neck and the fondling and tweaking on her breast, Astrid's breathing had become erratic. She was constantly moaning and felt like she was burning up.

Hiccup didn't know how good his control was today so he thought he better end this. He wanted nothing more than to bury himself inside Astrid. He knew she would not stop him but he did not want to put her in that position. He never wanted her to think she was impure or damaged goods. He didn't want her to ever have any regrets. They would start off their marriage in the Viking tradition so that his bride would never have to worry about someone questioning her virtue. He tried to remove his hands from her breasts but Astrid held them in place and gave a grunt of disapproval. He gave a chuckle and moved his mouth to her ear, another of her erogenous zones, and gently bit her ear. Astrid moaned loudly and raised her arms up behind her and grabbed Hiccups head, keeping it right where it was. Still chuckling, Hiccup removed his hands from her breast and pulled her shirt down. She could put her breast bindings on later. Despite the headlock Astrid had him in; Hiccup raised his head and gave another chuckle at Astrid's frustrated huff.

"Astrid" Hiccup called.

"What?" she replied back with a pout.

Smiling, Hiccup made a mental note to himself for when they were married. A sexually frustrated Astrid was a very unhappy Astrid.

"Would you turn around please? I want to see your gorgeous face and look into your beautiful blue eyes." Hiccup requested.

Astrid was trying to stay mad at him for refusing to finish what he had started. Intellectually, she knew Hiccup was right to stop them. Emotionally, she wanted to take her axe and chop him into itty bitty pieces for stopping them. Intellect won out as she knew and understood the reason he would not go through with making love to her. She knew how protective Hiccup was when it came to her. She knew he would do everything in his power to protect her virtue and reputation and woe to the person that ever questioned it. The most telling proof about his protection of her was the way he would protect her from herself. There was no doubt he wanted her. Men could not hide that fact since it would show in the most obvious way. She also knew that he knew she was his for the taking. Not only would she not stop him, but would beg him to take her. So, he not only protects her virtue but then he had to go and call her gorgeous and tell her she had beautiful eyes. How in the world is she supposed to stay mad at him? Everyone thinks that I'm going to be the dominant one in this marriage she thinks to herself. They don't have a clue. I'm not but a pile of goo when it comes to Hiccup. Sighing loudly, Astrid twists around until she is sitting on Hiccups lap, straddling him. She scoots up closer to him, bringing her into contact with the hard evidence that he wants her just as much as she wants him. She does not scoot back to avoid him. She is happy and proud of the fact that she turns her man on. She leans into him and wraps her arms around his neck as she lays her head on his upper chest so she can put her face into his neck and breathe in his scent. Hiccup wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her tight against him so he can cuddle with her. They sit like this for a while before Hiccup lies back bringing Astrid with him. Astrid sits up for a moment so she can unbuckle her spiked skirt and take it off before lying back down on top of Hiccup contently. She is just as protective of him as he is of her and she definitely was not going to have him getting hurt by her spiked skirt. Hiccup is caressing Astrid's back as they lie there lost in their thoughts. Every now and then, his hands go all the way down to her butt and squeeze, which causes Astrid to moan. Coming to a decision, Hiccup starts to speak.

"Astrid, I don't want to wait to marry you. You can have whatever kind of wedding or ceremony you want but I don't want to wait another day for you to be my wife." Hiccup stated.

Astrid sat up and stared down at Hiccup. He had just said what had been on her mind since he proposed to her. She didn't want to wait either. She wanted this man for her husband right now.

"Oh Hiccup, that's exactly what I want. I want you for my husband and I don't want another day to go by that I'm not Mrs. Hiccup Haddock." Astrid stated firmly.

Hiccup sits up and kisses Astrid silly. When he is done, she has that goofy love struck expression on her face again. Boy could this guy kiss she thought.

As they got up, Hiccup whistle for Toothless as Astrid put her skirt back on. Just as she was going to put her breast binding back on, Hiccup stopped her and said "Just a taste" as he lowered his mouth onto her right breast. Astrid head went back and her mouth opened but no sound came out. She put her hand on the back of Hiccups head, holding him to her breast as he gently sucked and swirled the nipple around in his mouth. Astrid was constantly moaning and let out a small scream as her knees buckled when Hiccup gently bit down her nipple. He had put his arms around her to hold her up as he continued to caress her breast with his tongue. When he moved over to the other one, Astrid thought she was going to fall for sure. Hiccup worshiped this one as well before lifting his head and smashing his lips onto Astrid's. She met him halfway and greedily devoured his lips before pressing her tongue to his lips begging for entrance. As Hiccup could deny her nothing, he opened his mouth so their tongues could battle each other. They continued to kiss until they heard Toothless land. They broke the kiss and smiled at each other. Hiccup bent and picked up the breast binding which Astrid had dropped when she was otherwise preoccupied. He helped her put it on before they went over climbed onto to Toothless. Hiccup didn't want to fly Toothless so he left the lever in place and told Toothless to fly them home. He wrapped both arms around Astrid and kissed the back of her head. Astrid smiled as she leaned back into Hiccup and closed her eyes.

When they arrived at Hiccups house, they climbed down off of Toothless and headed into the house. As they were walking toward the house, Astrid saw her little sister and told her to go tell their parents to come to the chief's house. As they walked in, Stoick looked up.

"Hey son, I've been looking for you all day, where have you been?"

"I left early this morning because I had a lot to do today. What did you need dad?" he asked.

"I wanted to get some more chief training in with you today." Stoick responded.

"Sorry dad, but we can get a whole day in the day after tomorrow." Hiccup stated.

Just as Stoick was getting ready to ask why they couldn't do it tomorrow, there was a knock on the door. Hiccup walked over to answer it. It was the Hofferson's and Hiccup let them in.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Hofferson." Hiccup greeted them. "Please come in and have a seat."

The adults greeted one another and then Hiccup took charge.

"Dad, Mr. and Mrs. Hofferson, we don't want to wait any longer. Astrid and I want to get married tomorrow." Hiccup stated calmly.

After a stunned silence, Stoick spoke up

"Stop this non sense Hiccup, you can't get married tomorrow. It's already arranged when you two will get married and that's the end of it." Stoick gruffly stated.

The people of Berk still had trouble separating the old Hiccup, who they could walk all over, from the new Hiccup, who did not tolerate rudeness or abuse from anyone. Unfortunately, Stoick had the biggest problem with this and was continually embarrassed by Hiccup when he was put in his place by Hiccup.

"Hold it right there dad. I think it's time we get a couple of things straight. First, I'm your son, not your possession. You haven't been much of a father to me since mom died but that's neither here or there. The only thing you need to know is that I make my own decisions and have been doing that since as long as I can remember. Astrid has agreed to marry me tomorrow so we will be married tomorrow. Now, what you do have control over is if the marriage takes place here on Berk or somewhere else. You also have control over if you want to be a part of it or not. At this point, I really don't care what you do. My allegiance is to my fiancé and that's it."

Astrid's mom, Ingrid, had been watching her daughter. She knew her daughter very well and she saw the glint in her eyes that told her that what Hiccup had said was the truth. Astrid wanted to marry this boy immediately and nothing was going to stand in her way. She knew
Astrid was stubborn beyond measure and when she wanted something it was best to get out of her way. The way her face would soften when she looked at Hiccup told her all she needed know. Astrid wanted this boy for her husband and no one was going to interfere in that decision.

Astrid's father jumped up and tried to intimidate Hiccup with his size. "Chief son or not, you don't dictate what will happen with my daughter boy. The only reason I can think of you wanting to get married right away is if you have ruined her from anyone else being able to marry her." he stated.

Both Astrid and her mother gasped at such a statement. Stoick said nothing as he had been thinking the same thing. Astrid started to march over to her father with fire burning in her eyes as she removed her axe from her back. As she passed Hiccup, he quickly reached out and picked her up from behind and brought back into his chest. Astrid was kicking and screaming for him to let her go so she could go gut her father. Hiccup whispered something into her ear and kissed her on the cheek. Whatever Hiccup had said to her seemed to have calmed her down so he placed her down and released her. This shocked all three adults as they all knew Astrid's temper. But Hiccup had calmed her down just by whispering in her ear. Astrid turned to him and kissed him full on the mouth. After the kiss, Hiccup asked her to go sit with her mother. After she sat beside her mother, Hiccup walked over to Sven and looked up at him.

"Sir, all respect I had for you left when you uttered that deplorable statement basically calling my fiancé and your daughter a whore. Your daughter is as pure now as the day she was born. I want to marry Astrid because she is my world and my life plain and simple. Why should we wait when we both know that only death will separate us and that will only be until we are joined again in Valhalla. I could care less for ceremonies and traditions but I will tolerate them and anything else so long as my bride is happy. You have disgraced yourself and your family's name. Maybe it's a good thing that after tomorrow, Astrid won't have that name anymore. I will see you in the arena tomorrow at daybreak as it is custom for a man to protect his woman's honor and you sir have called my woman's honor into question. Choose any weapon you want. Rest assured I will not kill you only because you are her father but there will be no question that I could have and you will apologize to Astrid when we are done."

Hiccup then turned and walked over to Ingrid and kneeled in front of her. "I love your daughter with everything that I am. No matter how badly I wanted to, I would never put her virtue or honor in jeopardy. I would feel better if Astrid slept here in my bed tonight." As the adults started to huff and puff and Astrid just smiled, Hiccup continued. "I will not sleep here. I will sleep down at the cove with Toothless. I know she is your daughter but after what her father said to her, I'm not comfortable with her being under the same roof as him."

Ingrid looked into the eyes of her future son in law and liked what she saw. She saw the love he had for her daughter. She saw the determination to protect her at any cost. She saw the intelligent man in a boy's body. She saw what everyone else missed because they only looked at his appearance. She saw a strong Viking warrior. Finally, she saw the truth in his eyes. There was no guilt. There was no dishonesty or lies. He had told the truth when he said Astrid's virtue was intact.

"Hiccup" Ingrid said "You are one of the most honorable men I know. Your mother was my best friend and we were thrilled when were both pregnant at the same time with you and Astrid. You two got along well right from the start." She placed her hand on the side of his face "Your mother would be so proud of you. I know this because I'm proud of you." A tear slid down Hiccup's cheek that Ingrid wiped away with her thumb. "I already think of you as a son and I too cannot wait for you and Astrid to be married so it will be official that you are my son. I agree, Astrid will stay here tonight but I do have a request. Please put off the wedding for one week. This request is not for you or Astrid or anyone else in this room. This request is for me alone. A mom only gets one chance to give her daughter a wedding. I just need one week to put everything together and spend this last quality time with my daughter as a single woman."

Hiccup looked over at Astrid who had tears rolling down her cheek. She looked at the man she loved and gave a brief subtle nod. Hiccup turned back to Ingrid with a smile on his face.

"I don't know what a mother's love is since I was to young to remember my mom. I don't know what a father's love since I have never had that either. But I do know what love is. When Astrid and I made this decision, we were thinking about what we wanted and what we wanted was to be husband and wife. We had absolutely no intent to hurt anyone. Mrs. Hofferson, I would rather cut off my arm than take away your joy as a mom. Especially as you are the mother of the bride and should have all the joy and happiness that comes along with that status. We will do as you have asked and wait a week to be married."

Ingrid leapt up and pulled Hiccup up with her and threw her arms around him. She then rushed over to her daughter and threw her arms around her. Astrid was laughing as her mom was talking a mile a minute about preparations for the wedding. Hiccup turned to head out the door. When he got to Toothless, he heard running foot steps behind him. Before he could turn around, Astrid had jumped on his back. Laughing, Hiccup put his arms around her legs to hold her in place. He could endure the spikes on her skirt if it brought her happiness.

"I just know you were not leaving without giving me a proper good bye?" Astrid said as she started nibbling on his ear.

Hiccup, enjoying what Astrid was doing to his ear, thought he would play with his bride a little. He whispered to her "I will be expecting you to jump on me like this naked when we are wed."

It was a good thing it was night as Astrid blushed beet red. How in the Hel did he do that to her she thought? One simple statement and she was on fire for him. She looked back and saw they had an audience as their parents were looking at the couple. She slid down off of his back and he turned to hold her in his arms. He chuckled a little looking at her red face and she hit him lightly on the arm knowing what he was chuckling at.

"I see we have an audience." Hiccup said.

"Yes, I suppose we do." she replied.

"Ok Beautiful, you go get ready to get some rest. Sleep in one of my tunics. They are in the top drawer." Hiccup lowered his voice to a whisper "It will be hard for me to get to sleep thinking about your gorgeous naked body covered only by one of my tunics that was on my body. It will be like my naked body is covering your naked body."

Astrid put her hand over his mouth and buried her face into his chest. She thought she was going to just combust as hot as she was. This man's tongue was dangerous in more ways than one. Thinking about what he had done to her with his tongue made her blush even more. He chuckled against her hand and taking it into his hand, placed a soft kiss into her palm.

"Good night my beautiful bride." Hiccup whispered to her.

"Good night my handsome groom." Astrid replied back.

Astrid thought Hiccup would just give her a peck on the lips since they had an audience but she should have known better. Hiccup was as unorthodox as they came. He took her lips and just flat out ravished her mouth. Astrid loved when he was dominate like this. She had her arms wrapped tightly around his neck as he kissed her. Being aware of where they were and who was watching, Hiccup ended the kiss quickly. He hopped on Toothless and they vanished into the night. Astrid walked back to the house with a dazed look on her face and a smile on her lips. She walked past the adults as though they were not there and proceeded to climb up the ladder to Hiccups room. She pulled one of his tunics out the top drawer and smelled it. It was clean so it didn't have his scent. She looked around and saw one hanging on the back of the door. She went and took that one down and smelled it. She smiled and hummed in satisfaction as this one had hiccups scent on it. She wasted no time in stripping and putting the tunic on. She went and got into Hiccups bed and pulled the furs up over her, they also smelled like him. Astrid was asleep in no time with a big smile on her face.

Down stairs, the adults looked at each other before Stoick said "Well, I guess we all should call it a night as Sven has a duel in the morning and Ingrid and I have a week to plan a wedding." Stoick looked at the way Ingrid was glaring at her husband and felt bad for the man. Stoick did not envy Sven at all. From the glares he had been getting from his wife, he would not be getting much sleep tonight. As a matter of fact, he may not get into the house tonight.
