Hey guys! I'm back again, after a very long time, I know! 

I finished school and am officially a scriptwriter! YAY! I also was moving home, then summer came and I went back to work at camp since I needed a job, which didn't give me much time to write. 

Also, I'm entering my first big competition as a scriptwriter and I'm really excited about it! I also get to go to Fanexpo this year with my best friend and it's my first time going, so I'm super excited. 

But here we are, so enjoy this new chapter, and I apologize if it's kind of short. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a couple of months later and Astrid was due any day with the baby. Her belly was pretty big and she was exhausted. They were finishing moving into their new house. Fairly big,  and had extra rooms for more children someday. Hailey was excited about having a new bedroom. Hiccup and Astrid were pleased to be out of an apartment building. 

"Okay. That's all of them." Hiccup said bringing in the last box. 

"Great, now to unpack everything." Astrid said. Her hair up in a messy bun and a hand on her belly. Hiccup came over and pecked her lips. 

"Let me worry about it. You need to rest." He told her. Astrid smirked. 

"Alright, babe. I can still help with some things." Astrid told him. 

"Fine, but you need to be careful." Hiccup said. Astrid nods. 

Astrid walked into the kitchen and started to open the boxes and put some dishes away. Hiccup worked on the bigger stuff. 

It got later in the night and they had part of the house done. Their bedrooms, the living room, and kitchen were pretty much set up and done. Astrid was laying on the couch against Hiccup as they watched a movie.  She felt the baby kicking and put a hand on her stomach. Hiccup looked at her. 

"You okay?" He asked her. 

"Yeah, the baby is just moving a lot." She told him. 

They tried to sit and enjoy the movie, but Astrid sat up suddenly and had her hands on her tummy. She breathed heavily. 

"Astrid?" Hiccup said. 

Astrid winced a little. "Call your mom, to come watch Hailey. I think we need to go to the hospital." 

Hiccup got up and called his mom over. Valerie came and Hiccup helped Astrid into the car and grabbed the hospital bag. They drove to the hospital and Hiccup parked the car and helped her out and up to the delivery floor. 

The nurses got her into a room and in bed and brought in an ultrasound to look at the baby. The doctor checked Astrid as well. 

"You're about 6cm dilated. Need to be 10 before you can start pushing." He told her. 

Astrid nods. 

A few more hours go by and they tell Astrid she's allowed to push now. Astrid holds Hiccup's hand and get's ready to push. After about another hour, they hear the cries of a baby. The nurses clean the baby off and hand the baby to Astrid. 

"It's a girl." They say. 

Astrid holds her daughter close and smiles. Hiccup smiles too. 

"She's beautiful." Hiccup kisses Astrid's head. Astrid smirks. 

"We need a name." She looks at Hiccup. 

Hiccup thinks for a moment. 

"What about Ella? Ella Joy?" Hiccup says. 

Astrid smiles and nods. "I love it."

Hiccup kisses her head. 

They keep Astrid for the night with Ella but they are able to go home the next day.

"I wanna see her!" Hailey exclaims when Astrid and Hiccup come home with her sister.

"Shhh. You need to be quiet around her okay?" Hiccup said. Hailey nods.

Astrid sits down on the chair in the living room and Hailey comes over to look at her new sister. Astrid smiles.

"This is Ella." Astrid tells her. Hailey smiles.

"She's so small." Hailey said.

"You were that small once too, Missy." Hiccup says coming into the room. Hailey smirks.

Valerie comes over to see the new baby as well.

It gets later in the night and Hiccup's mom decides to stay over. Astrid is in their room and has Ella in her basinet. Hiccup puts Hailey to bed and comes in their room.

"How you feeling?" He asks Astrid.

"I'm okay. Just exhausted." She says. Hiccup kisses her head.

"Go to sleep. I'll wake you if she's hungry." He tells her.

Astrid nods and lays down to sleep while Hiccup admires his new daughter.
