"Hiccup, calm down. Your dad will be here. I know it." Astrid said intertwining her hand with mine

She laid her head on my shoulder and I laid my hand ontop of hers.
"I-i know..." I said.
"Happy seventh month." She said.
"Oh Thor! I'm so sorry Ash!"
"Hey, it's ok. This is important. Your dads coming home with the she."
"Yeah...the she." I said.

We listened to the noise of the airport as the tram opened. People filed out.  I craned my neck to see him.
"He's on the next one, or the one after it." Ash said.

I looked at her. Her eyes were closed.
"And you M'lady are so sure because?" I asked.
"My aunt came home yesterday and left at three. That's why. I had to sit through this."
"Oh...whens she in town next?"
"Another year?"
"A YEAR?!?"
"Hiccup."
"Sorry."
"There he is."

I stood with her as my dad came out.
"Dad!"
"Son!"

We hugged.
"I missed you boy!"
"Same here dad."
"Eye, who's this lovely lass?"

He shook Astrid's hand.
"Dad, this is Astrid...my girlfriend."

He stared at her. She smiled.
"Thor o mighty! Welcome to the family lass!" He said hugging her.

She laughed and hugged back. He pulled away and I wrapped a arm around her.
"Thank you Mr.Haddock." Astrid said.
"Call me Stoick, dear."
"Thank you, Stoick."
"So, dad. Where's this she?" I asked.
"Hiccup-" he started.

I spotted a woman behind him and my heart stopped. Her eyes were the same as mine as was her hair. But I remember seeing her in the only picture my dad loves before I came along. His wedding day picture.
"M-m-mom?!?" I asked.

She walked up to me and placed her hands on the side of my face. We both had a tear fall down our face.
"Hiccup...look at you...." She whispered.

We hugged.
"And this is Astrid, Thank you for making my son Happy when I want there." She said placing a had on her shoulder.
"Let's head home." Dad said.
