Astrid was always on the go, never stopping, never faltering, never holding back.
She never seemed to have time to even stop for breath in her daily routine; get up, breakfast, see her dragon, fly her dragon, train, lunch, see her dragon again, train some more, dinner, talk with her friends and then bed.
Of course, there was always time to see Hiccup as well. And, as she realised when she saw him coming towards her with his usual heartwarming smile, that was the only time she ever really stood still.
Maybe it was because sometimes just the sight of him would stop her breathing, freeze her up as her heart thudded quicker, watching as he came closer before she released herself, the two of them embracing and holding like they'd never let go.
Or maybe it was because she just liked to stay still in his arms so she could hear him breath, feel his heartbeat against her skin, press her nose into his chest and just smell the musky perfume of blacksmith and dragon rider.
Or maybe it was just because Hiccup made her feel at peace. No more war, no more fighting, no more violence. Just harmony all around, between the dragons and humans. And he was the one who had brought it upon them.
Whatever it was, Astrid didn't care. Because once she was with him, it was like the whole world stood still; time stopped. There was just them. Two people, in their own little bubble; away from everyone and everything else.
Just him and her.
Hiccup and Astrid.
