Astrid's POV

We roasted fish quietly.
Well, Actually, no.
I roasted fish quietly.
They were all having fun, chatting and laughing hard and loud...
I was there, sitting on a log next to Hiccup.

I was thinking; 'Why am I letting Hiccup and Sullidia ruin me?'
I mean, I'm ASTRID HOFFERSON! I'm a warrior! They don't control me, I control ME!! (Duhh)

I mean: Their actions and behaviour are sort of controlling my inside, causing my brain to do things I don't agree to. D:
This sucks! BAD!!! D:
I was staring at the roaring fire, its sparks and colour never left my eyes.
They were glued to my eyes.

"Um, Astrid..? You.... okay?" Hiccup asks me.

"Wha-? Ye-yeah. I'm great!!" I say as I avoid looking at him.

"Hm... seems to me you aren't."

He placed his fish-on-a-stick beside him, and looked at me deeply.
Oh man, Those perfect green eyes!! :3
I want this moment to last forever..
But... HOW?, Exactly?

"What??"

Oh no, I'm blushing!!!
Not now, Astrid!!
No! No! No!! NOT. NOW.
This is terribly wrong!!

"You-your cheeks are....."

Great! Just great! He noticed!! D:

"UM, WHAT ABOUT THEM?"

"The-they're...." he paused.

I guess he found out I'm gonna punch him when he'll say 'red'.
And YEAH! He's right!

"Red.."

I paused and covered my cheeks with my palms.

"Wha-what? Are you crazy? No way! Liar!"

I'm blushing even more!!
Eekk!! I think my cheeks are going to explode from all the Hiccup cuteness!!

"Well, suit yourself.."

He looked away, took his fish-on-a-stick, and roasted it even more.

"Ugh, you know one time, Tuffnut saw a shadow of a branch, and freaked out! Since it looked like a zombie's hand!!" Ruff laughed as she told a story about Tuff.

"Well, at least... I....... Uhm..... uhh......"

Tuffnut shoved hid his head into his hair.
I scooted a bit more until I reached the edge of the log.
I stared at a strange glowing object from afar.

"What....."

I stared more, I focused seriosuly, and then finally, I figured out what it was.
A dragon.
The one we saw!!!!
Oh man, Hiccup needs to know about this!!!
I tapped his shoulder, he looked at me with both his eyebrows raised.

"Uhm... we have a HUGE problem...."

"What??"

"That." I say pointing at the glowing dot from afar.
