hiccup is 15

hiccup's p.o.v

"no no it totally makes sense, it's like a giant beehive. they're the workers and that's their queen, it contorls them" astrid explains her theory to me as i land toothless. her grip on my waist loosens, and she jumps off.

"let's find your dad!" she begins to run off, buti grab her arm

"no, astrid they'll kill toothless... no.... we have to think this through carefully" i begin to unclip my harness, she turns around, looking rather irate.

"hiccup, we've just discovered the nest. the thing we've been after since vikings first sailed here, and you want to keep it a secret? wha... to protect your pet dragon, are you serious?" she cries out, confusion and anger in her voice. i turn around.

"yes. i will admit, i'm keeping more secrets, and those just like this must remain a secret" i say with confidence, my sleeve hiding the gold band on my left ring finger as it has been for months.

"okay, i'll keep the secret, one one condition" she gets closer to me and i back up nervously

"go out with me" she says firmly. i choke on my breath.

"...astrid. i can't..." i breath out, my cheeks flaming.

"why not? it's not like your tied down" i go silent at that, and her eyes go wide. she grabs my left hand and yanks my sleeve up, revealing my wedding ring. i screw my eyes shut and look away, expecting a slap and a push. instead, i feel her slowly turn the ring on my finger.

"who... i don't understand" i sigh and guide her to sit down with me.

"do you want the long or the short story?" i ask her breathlessly.

"both. give me the short, then the long" she says, leaving no room for argument.

"okay. short story, i got married 6 months ago. me and her eloped on meathead."

"so that's why you went to meathead."

"you can't tell him this, or about toothless. please astrid"

"i won't hiccup. that would be just too cruel" she says, laying her hand on my shoulder. i meet her azure eyes

"now, the long story" i can hear the sound off toothless blasting the ground and laying down.

"well, it was basically a don't ask don't tell thing. i don't regret it one bit, i love her more than life itself, but it was a stupid decision. when we went to meathead on that trip, i told my father it was going to be just two friends an a little vacation together. he didn't have a clue that i had already written to the officiator on meathead. he agreed to marry us, so we went. we got married in secret, then headed back 2 days after. obviously, i'm not allowed to take off the ring, and neither is she. so i've hidden it in my sleeve." i explain to her. she nods.

"okay. who is she" i shake my head.

"you cannot and i mean, cannot confront her about this. she'ss be so upset with both of us" she nods.

"i won't"

"... i'm married to south" astrid let's out a cry

"SOUTH? SOUTH TRADER? TRADER JOHANN'S DAUGHTER?!" she yells. i shush her.

"yes, south trader. you seriously cannot say anything to anyone." she takes a steady breath

"hiccup, you can't hide it forever"

"i know. i'm going to tell everyone tomorrow. and i'm going to try to explain about the dragons"

"does south know about toothless?"
