Hey guys, 

Back again! I have chapters 6 - 10 kind of planned out for this so I'll probably update a lot over the next few days. 

Thanks for the good feedback from some of you! I'm glad you guys are enjoying this story so much. 

WARNING - some swearing in the first little bit of this chapter!!

It had been a couple of weeks and Astrid was walking to her apartment. She went to unlock it and noticed the lock had been messed with. She opened the door, but nothing seemed out of place. She put her stuff down and walked to her bedroom. She started to take her shirt off. 

"Strip for me, babe." A male voice said. 

Astrid jumped and turned around and pulled her shirt back on. Sean was sitting in a chair in her room. 

"Sean? What the hell are you doing here?! Get out!" Astrid yelled at him. 

"No. I told you I would find you. So here I am." Sean said 

"Get out, or I'll call the cops." She said. Sean smirked. 

"Really?" Sean said standing up. 

"Yes, really. You broke into my apartment." 

Sean walked towards her and Astrid stood against the wall. He got right in front of her. 

"Don't touch me you bastard. Get out of my apartment." Astrid said to him. Sean grabbed her arm hard. 

"I'd be careful what you say to me. I put you in the hospital once. I can do it again. I know you miss me." He told her. Astrid glared at him. 

"You're the last person I would ever miss."

"I'm the best thing that ever happened to you. Without me, you would still be living with your low-income parents in a small house with barely anything." He told her. 

"That's not true. You took things from me, things I can't get back." Astrid said. "Now get out of my apartment." 

Sean grabbed her neck and slammed her head against the wall. Astrid winced. 

"I can do a lot worse to you. So I'd watch what you do, bitch. This won't be the last time I see you." Sean told her. He let her go and Astrid gasped for air. Sean left and Astrid heard the front door slam shut. 

Astrid fell to her knees coughing and catching her breath. She sat against the wall and felt tears fall from her eyes. She wiped them away and got up from her spot. She walked to the bathroom and started to run a bath.

The next day, Astrid got ready and put a scarf on her neck. There was a mark from where Sean grabbed her. There was also one on her arm. She met Hiccup and Hailey near the elevator to go down to his car. Hiccup dropped Hailey off first and then they got to work. They were at their lockers and Astrid took her scarf off, forgetting about her mark for a moment. Hiccup saw the mark. 

"What happened?" He asked. 

"What?" Astrid said looking at him. 

"Your neck, the mark." 

"Oh, nothing. I'm fine." She said putting her scarf back on. She closed her locker and headed out to start work. Hiccup followed her with his eyes, suspicious.

Later that day, it was around 3pm. Hailey was waiting for Hiccup. Camille showed up and Hailey saw her. 

"Hailey, come on. I'm here to get you." Cami said. 

"No." Hailey said. Her teacher came over and saw Camille.
