Astrid's POV 

I woke up the next morning and stretched out. I opened my eyes and jumped at the sight of someone sitting on the edge of my bed. 

"Oh my gods! Hiccup!" I said sitting up. "What are you doing?" I said. I than held my head as I felt it pounding. "Ow." I said softly to myself. 

"Headache?" He asked sounding annoyed. I looked at him confused. 

"What's wrong?" I asked. 

"Why did you punch Kara Williams yesterday?" He asked looking at me. I sighed. 

"Cause she deserved it." 

"Astrid, no one deserves it. Did she make you mad?" 

"Yes. I was at my locker and she came up and started talking about my life, and my parents and how they're in jail. She said she knows what Liam did to me. That my mom was knocked up with me when she was my age. She said she's surprised that I'm not knocked up yet. She called you a loser." I told him. "I got so angry that I just punched her." I said. 

"I'm sorry she did that Astrid. That's none of her business. Can I ask you something else?" 

"What's up?" 

"Why were you drunk when I came home yesterday?" 

"Cause I had some drinks."

"But why?" 

"Because, whenever I'm mad or upset or frustrated, I drink. I've been drinking since I was 14." 

"Well, I'm staying home with you today." He said getting up. He left my room and went downstairs. I got out of bed and went to have a shower. When I was done I went downstairs to get something to eat and I opened the fridge and grabbed some orange juice, I went to the counter and noticed that all the alcohol was gone. I sighed and figured Hiccup hid it all well I was in the shower. 


~~~~ A few weeks later ~~~~

It was a Saturday afternoon and I've been living with Hiccup for a little over a month now. I was outside on my balcony and lighting a cigarette. I can only smoke when Hiccup isn't around or not home. He already knows about me drinking when I'm mad. I need to hide this from him. I was leaning on the balcony thinking I heard a car come in the drive way. I ignored it. Next thing I knew I heard Hiccup's voice from my bedroom door. 

"Astrid? Where are you?" I heard. 

"I'm on the balcony." I said. Not really thinking about the cigarette I had in my hand. When I saw him closer to me I dropped it on the cement and stepped on it and kicked it off. 

"Why do I smell smoke?" He asked. I didn't say anything and didn't look at him. I had my hands in my pockets and went to pull them out and pulled out my pack of cigarettes and lighter by accident and they dropped to the ground. I leaned down to pick it up and I saw Hiccup's hand beat me to it and I looked at him. He had an upset and mad look on his face. We both stood up. 

"You smoke?" He asked. I didn't say anything. "Astrid." 

"Yes. I smoke." I said. Hiccup sighed. "Same amount of time I've been drinking before you ask." 

"Why?" 

"It's my escape." I told him. I walked inside and he followed me. We went  downstairs to the kitchen and I opened the fridge. 

"Astrid. I don't want you smoking, or drinking." 

"Why?" 

"Because you're gonna mess up your body. I don't care if you have drink once in a while or something, but don't get drunk all the time." 

"I don't." 

"Astrid, I had to hide and lock up the alcohol in this house so you won't get plastered. Now I have to take cigarettes from you too. How did you even get them? You're not old enough." 

"It's called a fake I.D." I told him. 

"Give it to me." He said holding his hand out. 

"What?" I said. 

"Give it to me." 

"No." 

"Astrid. I'm not gonna let you have a fake I.D. to get cigarettes and alcohol. Give it to me, now." 

"I don't have it on me anyway." 

"Where is it?" 

"I'm not telling you."

"Astrid." 

"Hiccup."  

We were both glaring at each other now. 

"Astrid. Do you want to end up like your parents? Because that's the path you're heading down right now." He said to me. 

"I'm nothing like them." 

"Give me the I.D!" 

"No, Hiccup!" 

His hands formed the shape of a fist and I noticed. I backed away slowly. 

"GIVE IT TO ME THOR DAMN IT!" He screamed and punched the table. I jumped at the action and I could see how mad he was. I figured he's next target to punch would be me. I reached in my pocket and slammed the fake I.D. on the table. I went upstairs and slammed my door and changed into sweats and laid in my bed. 

Hiccup's POV 

I screamed at her and hit the table with my fist. I was mad at her. I care about her. I love her. I wasn't gonna watch her throw her life away. She jumped at the action and I could see the fear on her face. I saw her slam a card on the table and it was her fake I.D. She left the kitchen and I heard her bedroom door slam shut. I realized what had just happened and it clicked that I had just scared her at my shouting voice and fist hitting the table. I would never hurt her. Ever. But I think what I just did made her think I might. Especially when I'm angry. I sighed and noticed the time. I decided to leave her alone for a while and started to make dinner. 

Astrid's POV 

~~A few hours later~~

I was laying in my bed and had been crying since I came up here. Hiccup said he would never hurt me, and though he didn't. He was pretty close. It scared me. My face stung as some tears still fell down them. I heard my door open but didn't bother to look. 

"Astrid." I heard Hiccup's voice. 

"What?" I said trying to make it sound like I hadn't been crying, but I failed. I heard his steps come closer and I felt him sit on my bed on the other side and my back was facing him. I felt him lay on the bed and I felt an arm around my waist and soon he was against my back. He had his head on my shoulder and whispered in my ear. 

"I'm sorry Astrid. I didn't mean to upset you or scare you. I just don't want to see you throw your life away. I don't want to see you turning to alcohol and cigarettes when you're upset." He said to me. I just laid there and listened to what he was saying. After a little bit I turned so I was facing him. He smiled softly at me and wiped my tears. "Don't cry. I don't like seeing you sad." He whispered and I smiled at him. I put an arm around his waist and snuggled up to him. 

"I forgive you." I said. It was muffled. But I knew he heard me when I heard him sigh of relief and kiss my head. 

We laid there in silence in each other's arms for a while before I said something. 

"Hiccup." I said softly. 

"Yes m'lady?" 

"Can I tell you something?" 

"Of course." He looked at my eyes and I looked at his. 

"I love you." I said quietly. I felt his fingers move my bangs from my face. He had soft smile. 

"I love you too." He said. He kissed my forehead. I kissed his lips and he didn't hesitate to kiss me back. 

We continued kissing and it got more heated and passionate the longer it went on. Soon Hiccup was on top of me and started kissing my neck. I gasped a little. I felt his hands around my waist and start to go under my shirt. They were cold on my warm skin and I gasped at the sudden shiver I got from it. I felt his fingers tugging at my waist line of my pants. Hiccup came back to kissing my lips and I had my hands in his hair tugging at it a little. We were full on making out right now and we lasted quite a while. We broke apart after a bit and Hiccup laid beside me and I cuddled up to him. I was little surprised we didn't go further. But at the same time I was glad. I wanted to wait until the perfect night. 

"Can you stay with me?" I asked cuddled up to him. He smiled. 

"Of course." 

"All night?" I asked. He kissed my head. 

"Sure Astrid." He said softly. 

We stayed how we were and eventually fell asleep. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

 A few days went by and Hiccup and I were at school together. We were by his locker, and he had started kissing me and didn't let me pull away. 

"Gross." We heard someone say and broke apart. It was Sam. I rolled my eyes. 

"How is it gross? You kiss girls at school too. Lots of them." 

"Yeah, in private. Plus I don't kiss losers like you are." He said to me. I walked up to him. 

"He's not a loser! He's the perfect boyfriend." I told him. Sam smirked and laughed. 

"Perfect huh? He's the farthest thing from perfect." Sam said. 

"No he isn't. He's a lot more on the perfect side than most guys I know and have dated. Also you can't say anything about us kissing in the hall, because it's none of your damn business." I said. I could tell he didn't like my response because he just walked away, I walked back over to Hiccup and held his hand. He smiled at me and I looked at him. "What?" I said with a smile. He shook his head at me. 

"Nothing. You're just so cute." He said. I sighed and smiled at him, and put my arms around his neck and I kissed him. 

"I love you." I said against his lips. His hands were on my waist. 

"I love you too." He said kissing me back. We continued to kiss again and we were interrupted again. This time by the warning bell. "We should get to class." He said to me breaking our kiss. I sighed. 

"Fine." I said. 

"We can continue later." He whispered in my ear kissing my cheek. I smiled and blushed a little. I picked up my books and we walked to class together holding hands.
