extremely sad chapter, read at own risk. hiccstrid. 



hiccups p.o.v


once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl.


astrid has always been in my eyes, even when we were just kids and i didnt even know what love was. i always knew that i wanted to be with her. i love her.


she was absolutely perfect in an imperfect world


even after we made peace with the dragons, viking continued to be... vikings. still loud, messy, violent and usually drunk, but she still remained to be absolutely perfect. she still strives to be the perfect warrior, while still maintaining her softer side. this is one of the things i love about her.


forevers a promise, its more than just a word.


we were betrothed at 19, and since then things between us practically did'nt change, apart from how we knew that everything was going to be okay, and no matter what we had each other. forever.


they meant it to each other, of that they were sure.


i never went back on my love for her. i never looked at any other girls that way. i never saw the point. astrid is the only one for me, and no other girl could change that. ever.


he came home to her crying at the top of the stairs


i open the door to my house and hear faint crying, alarmed, i rush up the stairs to see astrid sat on the top step with her head buried in her hands, sobbing. i run up and wrap an arm around her. she leans into me. 


he asked "baby whats the matter?" as he pushed back her hair


"astrid? what happened? whats the matter?" i push her hair behind her shoulder so i can get a clear view of her face. her eyes are red as she looks up at me. she is about to speak before her eyes screw shut and she presses the back of her hand to her mouth to supress her sobs. 


she said " honey, i'm sick. what the hell did i do?"



"hiccup. i'm sick. what the hell did i do?" she sobs again. i gasp.

"what... kind of sick..?" i stroke her hair.

"the kind of sick where i'm likely going to die" she continues crying into my shoulder. all i can do is close my eyes and try to block out the harsh reality that i might lose her.


and with hate in his heart, he screamed at the moon


later that night, i sit on the cliffs of berk after astrid has gone to sleep. toothless croons worriedly at me. i look at him

"i..i cant lose her bud. i just..." i look out at the moon and let out a yell of pure agony.
