We arrived at Berk in the afternoon, we fly towards it without a break, and we are much more closer than the edge, all the team landed and their dragons left to the forest, ther's no place for them, Spitfire and Pathfinder was the only one to stay with us, all the riders went to help the villagers, the wedding will be tommorow no doubt "I will be with Pathfinder at the arena, just to say the things he must know !" "okay Spit, just take good care of you !" "don't worry I will !"
Spit took off foolowed by Pathfinder, I looked at her until I felt an hand on my shoulder "what about a drink ?" "yes, thank you, can we finished our discussion please ?" "which one ?" "you're joking right ?" "yes, comme here !" We went to the first tavern on town and take a sit "two meads please !" "alright !" "really ? two tankards ?" "it's not everyday we have a wedding right ? furthermore, the twins told me you're a good drinker !" "me ? I just drink occasionally, you challenge me ?" "maybe but after our dialogue ! where were we anyway ?" "at Sven's when you..you said...you know ?" "oh yes !" I took a deep breath and when she was ready to continue, I received a little punch in the shoulder "there it is !" "Astrid, glad to see you !" "thanks Heather, can I sit with you two ?" "yes, go on !" it's a curse or something like that, I will never know what Heather has to say...but like Hiccup, Astrid is my best friend, I can't be harsh with her, because of two points, first one, she always carried an axe and she knows how to use it and second, she had Stormfly, the only dragoness I know who learn how to sit on people, sitting on you and moved out until Astrid told her to do so, Hiccup is my chief, I will not made him angry, I will have my answer one day "if I searched you guys is simple, Hiccup and I needed of best man and maid of honor !" "what ? why ?" "we never saw that on a viking wedding ?" "I know, it's Hiccup idea, I don't know why ?" "but why us ? you have plenty of possibility here on Berk !" Astrid sighed and explain the choices "Gobber will only do chitchat, Gothie will say nothing, Tuff and Ruff will srewed the day up, Fishlegs was so nervous he fainted and SNotlout, yew...I prefer to forget what he could do...you're our only choice, if I remember Hiccup's words !" "okay, we will accept on one condition !" "which one ?" "I want some explanation for the chief himself !" "okay, I'll told him...after one drink with you !" Astrid took her drink at the bar and Heather looked at me "why do you decided this condition ?" "Spitfire told me, she and Windshear will..." why did I talk about that ? change your words know or you're srewed "erm...I know Hiccup, he can hide something for us ?" "why did you talk about our dragoness ?" "don't know, I think of her for no reason sometimes !" I had a small nervous laught and our meads arrived, followed closely by Astrid "skoll !" "skoll !" we drunk our glass for one sip, Berk's mead is the best, like my foster father told me "if it burns all your throat it's a good one, if it does not, it's water !" Berk's mead is the only one which I have my throat and the rest of my body like on fire "that's good !" "I've got an other thing to tell you, Hiccup and I also organize a big fest at our home, only boys for Hiccup and only girls at my house !" "the last night of single life right ?
"yes Amaury, I hope we're not distrubing a..." "no, we have nothing prepared for tonight, Heather will be with you and I will be with the chief !" I take an other sip and we pursued our talking.

At night, I told to Kira and Arvid to made their own fest with the team, I was so drunk right now, only...four...maybe five meads...no...it was eight...nevermind, I went to Hiccup's house and knocked at the door "there you are...are you drunk ?" "maybe...yes...so what ?" "nevermind, be my guest...but don't break anything, Toothless is upstair, you're the first one to come !" "yes !" "you must stay still until alcohol will be..." "no, I know my borderline for that, i can drink, if I walk and talk properly, I can..." "shh, sit down, we have some thigs to do this night and a drunk guy is not on my list !" "okay chief, I will sat on one of these three chairs !" "there's only one !"
I sat on the only one and sighe, it was a long time I was drunk like that, it's my friend's wedding, a fets like that must be something "I have a question for you chief ?" "what is it ?" "Astrid told me and Heather, you...you searched a best man and a maid of honor and...and you thought about us, why ?" "after us, you're the couple everyone is talking about, maybe...just maybe, you'll be the next one to..." "WHAT...hic !" here we go, I've got hiccups...wait a minute, my chief is called Hiccup, this means "hoquet" in a foreign language, i burst out laughting  "what the ?" "I'm good here, don't worry, I...hic...I will laught at nothing !" I decided to take some fresh air behind the house to calm down a little and when I was back all the guys of Hiccup's team were here "that's the last one !" "okays Fishface, we do what now ?" "Snotlout ?" "what chief ?" "Tuff, what about Chicken ?" "Chicken is fine thank you my Loki friend !"
"mruu !" I put my head up when I heard that and saw Toothless's head looking at us "I think your Fury is awake...if he was sleeping !" "we all go upstairs and give him some company, he is my bud after all !" Hiccup went upstairs and when we all arrived at his chamber, he sat beside his dragon and we were around him on the ground "how about the girls, if I will get married tommorow, how about you ?" That does it, it was a trap all along, he knows Tuff, Snotlout and Fishlegs had no one or no chance with the girls "what about Fishlegs and Snotlout ?" "I tried everything with her but nothing suceed !" "she resist my raw vikingness ?" "really, where it is ?
Tuff was laughting at loud, like me and Snotlout said is only punchline on these case "shut up you two !" "and you Tuff ?" "well...I'm not on this type of search right know !" "AKA, no one will meet him in any case !" "SNOTLOUT !" "and you Amaury ?" "like no one heard us at Sven's, I wish it will be Heather but...I don't know why but I think it will be only on my dreams !"  "I don't think so...you will this tommorow !" Why should I wait tommorow, I don't like that, he hide me something and I hate that, Tuff changed my mind when he talked about meads.

There it is, the real between Astrid and Hiccup !
