"You actually said that? To Astrid?" Hiccup said
"Yeah." snoutlout affirmed
"I'm surprised she didn't kill you, you know how much she hate you, and you asked her to be your girlfriend"
Hiccup said laughing
"You and me both, she only broke my nose and smash my stomach." Snotlout muttered, lifting the hunk of raw fish from his eye and gingerly feeling where it had been
sitting.
"You're gonna have one huge bruise though. Sort of a battle wound I'd say."
"No kidding. Where is Astrid anyway, Hiccup?"
The other teen shrugged.
"She said something about staying over with Ruff tonight."
Snotlout replaced the fish with a wince.
"So it's just us tonight?"
"Suppose so,"
Hiccup replied, taking a drink from his mug.
"Tuff and Legs said they'd probably show up. And their
dragons."
"Sounds like a party. All we'll need is for someone to start a fight and the night will be perfect."
"Oh no. No no no no. There's no way I'm going to help you back to your hut again after one of your little disagreements with
someone. My back is still sore from the last time."
"he called me a jerk!"
Hiccup sighed.
"You were acting like a jerk, Lout. You know what they say: if the boot-"
"Now you're starting to sound like Fishlegs."
"And what's wrong with that?" Fishlegs asked
"Nothing, big man. It was just an observation. Glad you two could make it."
Tuffnut slouched onto the bench opposite Snotlout, nudging Hiccup further down. "We almost didn't. Ruff was trying to make me stay so she could demonstrate some new hairstyle to Astrid. Oh, the problems of having amazing hair like mine."
"Oh, I don't know. It might have looked good on you."
The yellow-haired teen stared across the table.
"You did not just say that."
"Lout..." Hiccup muttered, kicking his cousin under the table with a loud squeak of metal.
"Ow! Watch what you're kicking with, Hiccup!"
"Well, watch what you're saying then. Remember I won't be helping you home this time."
"So? I've got Hookfung to help if I need it!"
"Sure and there's no chance of him setting himself on fire halfway there...for the sixth time."
Fishlegs grinned.
"he does have an amazing amount of firepower...even for a Monstrous Nightmare. And the last time was pretty funny, you running around screaming for someone to throw water on you."
"Your eyebrows didn't grow back for almost a month,"
Tuffnut snickered.
Snotlout glared around the table. "Yeah yeah very funny. You're just jealous because your dragons can't do that."
"Oh come on, Lout, we're just teasing. No need to get upset."
"Whatever, Tuff,"
Snotlout muttered, staring at the roof of the club house.
"You're going to pout until you get in a fight, aren't you?"
Hiccup asked with a sigh.
"Probably yeah."
"Fine. We'll have a fight. Who wants to start?"
Tuffnut grinned.
"I will. Snotlout, your dragon smells like month old haddock."
"Oh yeah? Well yours smells like a bunch of pretty flowers!"
"How dare you!"
Tuffnut growled, throwing a punch at the other boy.
Hiccup and Fishlegs exchanged resigned glances and quickly moved to a different place as the fight began to escalate.
"I'm starting to hate staying with them,"
the chief's son muttered.
