Secret REVEALED

Chapter 2: Hiding the Secret

Here's the next chapter. The picture above is the top picture in the cover. It was the first part of this story so basically I made the cover to summarize the story.

I know it's not that great but I'll try my best to write it as good as I can. The previous chapter doesn't have much of Hiccstrid in it but every chapter I will add more.

Enjoy reading :)

It's already late night when the young Vikings landed safely back at the Edge. They all headed to the Clubhouse with their dragons to rest after a long day of travel.

"Astrid, why did the chief call you?" Snotlout asked suddenly making Hiccup and Astrid a liitle nervous.

"Yeah, what did you talk about?" Fishlegs curiously asked.

"Nothing. He told me to calm myself down and that there's nothing to worried about that's all." She told them plainly.

"Oh really?" Tuffnut raised an eyebrow.

"Really." Astrid replied.

"Are you sure that's it?" Ruffnut query.

"Yes. What else will he tell me?"

"I don't know. Maybe he told you not to cause any trouble and you're embarrass to admit it." Ruffnut assumed.

"Why would you think that?" Astrid queried.

"Because whenever the chief calls us and talks to us privately, it's what he always tells us." Tuffnut answered.

"Oh why am I not surprised?" She said and rolled her eyes.

"I don't know, why don't you ask Fishlegs?." Ruff replied.

"Why Fishlegs? You could always ask me. But if you do I wanted to tell you that I don't know the answer. So don't ask me." Tuffnut informed.

"It's a rhetorical question Mr. SmartyPants." Snotlout told him.

"Did you hear that sister? I was right. Pants are smart." Tuffnut said to his sister.

"Okay gang that's enough. You can go back to your huts now and rest. Today has been a tiring day and I know that you're all exhausted." Hiccup directed.

The teens all left the Clubhouse with their dragons and they went back to their huts just like what Hiccup suggested them to do. Hiccup and Astrid were the only ones left in the Clubhouse along with their dragons, Toothless and Stormfly. Once they were completely sure that the coast is clear Hiccup spoke up.

"Astrid, I know this is going to be sort of hard for us but we have to keep this a secret no matter what. The life of our dragons depends on it."

"I know, but... Hiccup I-I'm... scared." She admitted. What if something happens to the dragons? What if the Hunters know about this? What if -" She said a little panicky but he interrupted her and held her hands.

"Nothing is going to happen as long as we work together and hide this secret." He reassured looking tenderly in her eyes.

"I hope you're right." She sigh. A slight blush crept up unto her face when she realized that Hiccup was holding her hands and that they were staring at each other's eyes. She moved her hands away from his grip and he released her.

Hiccup rubbed the back of his neck to lessen the awkwardness. Astrid faked cough and broke the ice between them.

"We should find a place where we can plant the seeds. The sooner we finished this mission the better for us and for our dragons." She gestured to Stormfly and Toothless who were chasing one another behind them.
