Awkward.

Delivering news is not easy.

Astrid's POV

"Hiccup I think we need to tell your parents about me. It's been 3 days." I said and faced Hiccup who was feeding the dragons.

"Yeah. I've just been trying to think of a way to tell them without feeling awkward. You know my dad." He said and took the empty barrel from Toothless.

"They need to know. Today. C'mon, might as well get it over with early." I said and dragged him towards his house.

Hiccup's POV

When we got to my parents house I began to freak out a little bit. I don't know how they're going to react, I mean, this is my parents we're talking about. Astrid flung the door open and mom and dad looked at us from their chairs around the fire pit in the center of the house.

"Morning son. We weren't expecting to see you until later. Is anything wrong?" Mom asked and stood up. Astrid elbowed my ribs, telling me to tell them. I took a deep breath.

"Okay you guys promise not to freak out, okay?" I said. They nodded. I inhaled.

"Out with it Hiccup." Dad said now standing next to mom.

"Mom, dad, Astrid is pregnant." I exhaled loudly. Finally got that out. They just stood there with wide smiles.

"Oh Hiccup that's amazing!" Mom shouted and hugged me then Astrid.

"Well done Hiccup. Congratulations my boy." Dad pat my shoulder, causing me to fall forward a bit, since I'm about the size of his entire arm. "Congratulations to you too Astrid. Oh we have to make the announcement!" Dad suddenly shouted.

"Uh wait what are you talking about?" I looked between mom and dad frantically, hoping for an explanation.

"Well you have to tell the village. As the soon-to-be chief, the village needs to know." Dad said.

"Here we go again with the chiefing business." I sighed.

"You're making the announcement tonight. At the Great Hall during dinner. Astrid will be next to you along with me and your mother behind you." He explained then walked out for the day.

"Can't wait." I mumbled sarcastically then waved at mom, and walked home. Astrid came running behind me, and soon caught up and was at my side.

"What was that all about?" She sounded concerned.

"You know I don't like the thought of me doing chiefly things." I said not breaking my eye contact with the ground.

"I know but, your fathers only doing what his responsibility is as a chief. He's right though the village needs to know." She said. "I mean, Hiccup, Chief of Berk. What an honor. I'd be pretty excited."

"I'm not like you Astrid. Y-you know exactly who you are you always have. I'm nothing like my father, and I only just met my mother, so who does that make me?" I said and sat down in front of our house.

"It makes you Hiccup. The man that trained the night fury, saved Berk so many times, runs the academy, trains the dragons. Hiccup, you're going to be a great chief one day." She said and kissed my cheek. I smiled. I turned and planted a passionate kiss on her lips.

"Thanks Astrid. Where would I be without you." I said and hugged her.

"You would be inside your father house reading the book if dragons again." She sarcastically stated.

"Oh haha. Hey I'm gonna go to the forge to do some work on my suit. I think something is wrong with the little fin in the back it doesn't pop out right. Feel free to join if you want!" I shouted and walked to the forge.
