But...The Night Is Young!

Chapter Twenty: Decisions To Make

Chapter Twenty: Decisions To Make

The sky is blue. The ocean is a bit more clearer and lighter colour. The sounds of kids playing with some dragons down on the village is happy sound; well, until that is you hear what is going on in my mind. It's one of the biggest decision I ever have to make.

Leave or stay with him.

If my uncle would've given this news early when we arrived here on Berk and saw him, I would've took  the chance and flee away as far away as possible. Now...now I really don't know. It's not that easy anymore. I made friends here, made new memories with these people and made new...possibly love. 

I'm not saying I'm in love with him...possibly, yes. But it was still so hard to choose. Do I choose and break his heart or do I stay and see where this could all work out? Considering the fact that he's a playboy do shines out the reasons of it. I might be in love with Hiccup but do I trust him? Not enough to conclude I do love him. 

If there is no trust, there is no relationship. There is no base of this commitment. I definitely don't trust him by the acts he's been doing for the past days. I mean, kissing Mista? That is low. I know they have dated in the past but I thought Hiccup would be better than that.

I turn to see Stormfly, my Deadly Nadder, sleeping comfortably on her stable that I made from scratch. I am now sitting with her on her home next to my home, trying to relax. "Stormfly, you're so lucky," I pet her. "You don't have to choose about these viking stuff." She purred in her sleep and placed her head down more on the ground to get comfortable. 

I smiled at her. That's one of the things I'm going to miss if I ever do choose to leave: Stormfly. If I do take up on the other contract, I might have to leave Stormfly since they might not ride dragons like here on Berk. This means I might have to leave my bestfriend alone. That thought alone saddens me. I can't leave her here...she'll be all alone.

I sigh and lean back on Stormfly, making her support me. "What am I going to do?" I whisper to myself. The only reason why I want to stay here is because of Stormfly. Sure there might be another plausible reason as to why to stay and yes I am talking about Hiccup but is this relationship-or whatever you may call it-work? Will I ever trust him again to not let myself crumble and lose myself? Am I willing to put myself out there to be with him and take the risk?

Which to choose? Love and risk or start anew?

I walk into my home silently, my hands fiddling with each other. I have made my final decision. I look up, expecting to see my uncle sitting there doing nothing as he usually does and my expectations meet; he is there. He looks up at me when he hears the door shuts behind me.

"Astrid," he greeted with a slight nod. I don't greet him back. I never do. "You're back here early. Made that decision yet?"

I stop my fiddling and sigh so softly that I am the only one who hears it. "Yes," I answer with a one word answer. I stood still as he asks me what is my decision. I take a deep breath in to take a moment to tell myself that this is the decision I made, no one else's. I tell him the answer.

His eyes widen softly in surprise. "Oh...well that is your final choice?" he asked to reassure my answer. I nod as a reply. "Okay, I support your decision. I'm just surprised you chose that." 

"Yeah I was also," I agreed with him on the comment he made. I then left the house and sighed loudly as soon I got out. Now all I have to do is tell. Tell people the decision I have made. 

And oh Thor, it is not going to be pretty.
