It was the ninth month of Astrid pregnancy. Soon and for sure the baby is about to see the world. Hiccup woke up in the morning, looking at his beautiful wife sleeping beside him. He sat up, stretch his arms and walk to the window.
He saw Fishlegs running, carriying logs of wood and gave them to Gobber. He shook his head. "Hey! What are you up to?" He ask.
Fishlegs look up and waved, "Just some morning exercise.." He grinned and ran. Hiccup laughed.
He turn to Ruff and Tuff house. They saw him and waved. He did too.
Astrid turn and moaned. She open her eyes and stretch her arms. Hiccup turn and walk to her. "Hey mommy. Sleep well last night?" He ask as he sit beside her and she smiled. Then, she yawned and grab his hand and hug it.
"Hey!" Hiccup chuckled and lean over to kiss her. She smiled as he stroke her hair but then, snapped out by the wet bed.
"Ehm.. Hiccup?" She asked. He look at her, "Hmm?" "I think my water just-" She peep under the blanket. "Broke.." She glance at him and he stood up.
"Wait here.. I'm calling for help." He ran down and called Ruff and Valka as usual. The three of them rushed to his house, followed by the gang.
•• Minutes after ••
Ruff and Valka prepared the blanket and some cloth. Hiccup approached Astrid for the last time before he went out.
"I'm scared.. What if I didn't make it?" Astrid was worried herself. Hiccup shook his head and held her hand as he kneeled down beside her.
"Don't think nonsense, Astrid. We all know you'll make it. Besides, you're strong.. You don't have to be afraid." He smiled and she noddded.
He left the room and waited outside. He walked around, back and forth. He couldn't keep himself calm. He was worried but he tried to hide it.
•• Meanwhile ••
Astrid gave a push and the baby came out. She was literally screaming and shouting all day long. She was tired, probably for everything. Ruff held the the baby that came out.
"Oh Thor! He's so cute and-" Ruff stop talking when Valka cut off her speech. "Ruff.. This isn't over. They're twins. The other's still inside.." Astrid groaned. "You mean I have to do that again?"
Ruff take a look and wrap the first born with a blanket. She place the baby on the carriage and it slept.
"Come on, Astrid.. Just do it one more time and it's gonna be over." Valka said, encouraging her daughter-in-law.
Astrid let out one last push, mixed with all those screaming and shouting. The second went out and cried.
Ruff held both of them and placed it beside Astrid. "The twins.. The first-born's a boy and the second's a girl." Valka smiled.
Astrid breath heavily as she look at her babies. She smiled.
Hiccup was waiting outside, still walking around, biting his nails. "Dude, calm down.. You're making me dizzy." Tuff crossed his arms.
"How can I calm down while my-" He stopped talking when Ruff opened the door and walked out.
She placed her hand on his shoulder and nodded. He went in and saw Astrid, half-asleep. He sat beside her and she open her eyes.
The gang look out from the door. Hiccup place his hand on her forehead and start stroking her hair. She open the blanket and look at the babies.
Hiccup's eyes widened and smiled. "Twins?" He smirked.
Valka approach them and said, "Thank Thor.." Hiccup and Astrid smiled. Valka pointed at the first born. "He was the first to come out. The pride of Berk. He might be a great chief someday in the future.." Then, she pointed at the second. "And here is the second. As you can see, she's going to be a warrior and a champion."
The three of them smiled and the gang cheered.
