[Normal P.O.V]

Astrid would've laughed at the couple's dumbfounded faces if she wasn't facing a very attractive man in the dancefloor. She'd always wanted to meet the voice in her head, but she never expected someone like this. His auburn locks fell past his eyebrows, slightly covering his shining green eyes. She smiled at him, as they slowly danced to the beat.

"Well, this is a surprise." She said.

Hiccup let out a soft chuckle, "I told you. You just had to wait."

It felt weird for Astrid to hear the voice speaking to her face-to-face rather than in her head. But she had to admit, it was lot better.

"So, how'd you know that I'd be here?" Astrid decided to ask. She never told him where the reunion would be because she didn't know herself.

"We followed the spirit of the reader. Well, here you are." Hiccup replied.

"We?"

Hiccup grinned, "The Four Horsemen."

"Oh, they're here?" Astrid asked, lifting her eyebrows.

"Nah, they didn't want to dress up. I on the other hand had plenty of time."

"So, where did you get the suit?" She asked, genuinely confused on how he got one.

Hiccup just leaned in to Astrid's side, his lips inches apart from her ear, and whispered, "A man always have to come prepared."

Astrid's blush burned through her cheeks and her face felt like a hot oven. She gulped as Hiccup leaned back, showing a crooked smile.

"Looking a little red there, Mi'lady." Hiccup teased.

Her blush only grew hotter. She glared at auburn man, and slammed her fist against his shoulder, earning her a small yelp from him.

"What the hell, woman? Why are you so strong?" Hiccup said, rubbing his shoulder.

Astrid smirked, "I may be stuck to a desk but I work out everyday. In fact, you look stronger than I am!"

"Yeah, I was just trying to boost your ego." Hiccup said dryly.

Astrid hits his shoulder once again, but his time, it felt like she was hitting a brick wall.

"Oww! What the hell?" She pulled back her fist, rubbing her knuckles. Hiccup's curled into a smile, his eyes glinting with amusement. He leaned in to her ear once again, rendering the blonde speechless once again. He took Astrid's hands, and held it firmly.

"Violence suits you, Mi'lady. You should do it more often." He whispered.

Heat rushed to Astrid's face like an active volcano. She didn't even know why she felt like that. But one thing she knows, is that only Hiccup could make her blush.

When Hiccup leaned back, Astrid stared into his eyes, her face flushed red. She didn't even bother trying to hide it, as her hands trailed up to his shoulder, gripping it softly. Hiccup's hands rested against her waist, as they slowly moved to the beat. They didn't even know they were the only ones dancing in the floor. The rest just watched the two dance, while getting lost in their own little world.

Heather, Rachel, and Tucker had a knowing grin on their faces, while the boys were just confused on who the guy was. Minden's face scrunched up into a scowl, jealousy evident on her face.

"Hey, Hiccup. Do feel what I'm feeling?" Astrid whispered.

"Why yes, Astrid. I do." Hiccup replied back.

"Why are we the only ones dancing?" She asked, her eyes sneakily wandering to her surroundings.

"Maybe they think we're some kind of couple." Hiccup said, chuckling quietly.
