[Astrid's Point Of View]

............................................................

What a coincidence, I just met Hiccup! He is as friendly as I remember him. He wears a beanie just like me. He actually looks pretty cute with a beanie if I have to say it myself.

He had told me he was here to buy a frozen pizza and he is not sure where in this big store they are located, so I'm doing him the favor and showing him the way over there.

"What are you doing in your spare time?" he asked curiously and looked at me with a smile.

I couldn't help but smile back. "I'm not doing so much at the moment. I've been doing a lot of sports before, but now that I'm in High School, it's hard to get time for it." I answered.

"Yeah, I guess that's just how High School is," Hiccup laughed and followed me until we arrived.

"Yeah, I guess that's just how High School is," Hiccup laughed and followed me until we arrived

"So, here are all the pizzas they have," I said, pointing to one of the long freezers.
Hiccup's eyes widened. "Wow, there are many," he said and began to examine them all. "Which one should I choose?"

I laughed and shrugged.

"I don't know," I said and went over beside him.

There was a moment until he had checked all of them. Then he turned around and looked at me.

"Do you like pizza?" he asked with a smile.

I blushed and laughed. "Yes, I love pizza,".

"What's your favorite kind then?" he asked and turned around to look at them again.

"Hmmm ... pepperoni, I think" I answered quietly. I could see that Hiccup slowly opened the freezer and picked up a package.

"Pepperoni it is" he smiled and closed the freezer again.

"You don't have to choose it just because I say it" I giggled.

Hiccup didn't answer, he just smiled at me again. We went up to the check-out to pay for the goods.

"What do you think about the school?" I asked while we were waiting in the queue.

"It's a good school, with a lot of friendly people," he said, smiling sweetly at me.

I blushed again. It felt like as he just fit in here. We reached the end of the queue and now it was my turn to pay.

I paid for my goods and went over to wait for Hiccup. He then paid for his pizza and went towards me.

"Which way are you going?" I asked. I have had a good time talking with him.

"Just down the street and then to the left" he replied and walked up beside me.

"Well, then we can go down to the end together because I'm going right," I said and indicated him to follow me.

He smiled at me and followed.

On the way down to the end, we talked about our daily lives and about our interests and hobbies. I found out that he and I actually have many things in common. Among other things, we both really like pizza...

[Hiccup's Point of View]

............................................................

She and I have many things in common! I'm happy to have a sweet friend like Astrid. She's so cute... and so kind... and so Friendly and so... so beautiful...

Unfortunately, we are soon at the turn and that means our roads are being separated. But I'm going to see her again tomorrow so it's okay.

"May I ask you one thing?" Astrid asked nervously and looked down at the sidewalk.

"Yes?" I answered. I had a feeling that it might be a little personal question she was going to ask me about.

"Can I have your phone number?" she asked very nervously. She looked up from the sidewalk and back at me again with a smile.

I blushed. She and I could chat together. What a great idea!

I smiled and took up my phone from my pocket. I went into my profile and gave it to her so she could enter her number.

She smiled and started writing down her number. "Write to me when you get home" she laughed kindly.

"Yes, I will," I smiled surprised.

We reached the end and waved goodbye to each other. I tried to behave normally, but I just had a strange feeling inside. I didn't really want to just let her... go. But I had to! She'll probably just think I'm strange or something if I said she should stay.

The rest of the way home I just walked and stared down at the sidewalk.

What's happening with me?

Time went quickly and suddenly I stood in front of my front door. I unlocked the door and went inside, my dad still wasn't at home and I think Toothless is with him at work so the house was completely empty.

I took off my shoes and jacket and went into the kitchen to heat up the pizza. I was really getting hungry now so I hurried up to turn on the oven. I unpacked the pizza, put it in the oven and set a timer for 20 minutes.

Now I went into the living room and sat on our sofa. I took off my shirt and put it in the laundry basket. It was pretty hot in here so I thought it would be a good idea to do just in case I started to sweat.

But now I just didn't know how to use the 20 minutes sensibly.

...Wait, I got it! I can chat with Astrid. I think she's at home now.

I took out my phone and went into my contacts. I tapped in the new number I had received earlier.

What do I do now? What should I write? What if it's the wrong number? What if she didn't want to write with me? My unconscious thoughts began to prevail.

I sighed. Come on, Hiccup! Don't be so scared, it was she who asked for your number and said that you should write to her, so it must mean she would like to chat.

I took a deep breath ...

[07:08 am] Hiccup: Hey:)

...

I couldn't help but wait and hope she answers.

...

Astrid is typing...

I started to feel my heart beating quickly now...
