Astrid pulled you into her arms with a sorrowful glance. You let out a loud sob, wrapping your arms around your new best human friend.
"D- did he r- really say a- all t- tho- those a- awful things?" you stuttered.
You felt Astrid nod and strengthen the hug. "I'm afraid so, (N/ N)."
"Worthless."
"Ugly."
"Not worth my time."
"Unfit."
"Not qualified to be a chief's wife."
You cried harder as you imagined Hiccup saying all those to your face, not just behind your back.
"He also told me that he has eyes on another girl in Berk and that he is secretly dating her. But don't tell him that I told you. I wasn't supposed to tell anyone." You sobbed harder. "I'm sorry to say that, (N/ N), but I thought you deserved to know."
"Don't be sorry, Astrid. I'm glad I was told, and by a trustworthy friend, no less. I really do appreciate your honesty."
Astrid smiled. "Anything for you."

"Snotlout is way stronger than Hiccup. Hiccup is too scrawny and weak. Snotlout is all strength and power."
Hiccup fell to his knees. "It can't be true. It can't be!" he sobbed.
Astrid sank to her knees as well, leaning his head on her shoulder. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry I told you, but I thought that you deserved to know."
"D- Don't be sorry, Astrid. I'm glad I was told. And by a trustworthy friend like you, no less. I really appreciate you telling me what she said. Thank you."
Astrid smiled. "Anything for you."

"You know," started Fishlegs, when he was alone with Astrid, "you shouldn't have lied. They'll discover the truth. Your lie will just come back to-"
