Who could ever ask for a better partner than Astrid? Obtaining the key to the shield maiden’s heart seemed to be a hard task at first, but it didn’t take too long for her to start putting down her walls and letting you in. Those couple years were only filled with subtle flirts and a little too much tension for your liking. So you took it upon yourself to be the one to confess! Luckily for you, Astrid immediately returned your affection.

It’s been a month or two since you’ve started dating Astrid. It didn’t take very long for others to catch on, and once you both revealed the big secret, you’ve both been getting looks from multiple people as you ran errands around Berk- even when you weren’t together! Not that they were bad looks, not at all.. they were all very excited and curious looks.

And how did you two react? With nothing. Neither of you cared about what people thought.

This point was only proven as you were now sat on a bench, Astrid sitting behind you as she happily braided your hair. She occasionally leaned over and gave you a few pecks on the cheek or neck. Every time a friend walked by or said hello, you’d both act as if nothing special was happening and just happily wave and talk back to them. What about the weird stares a few gave? Astrid simply glared at them with a look that screamed ‘I will murder you if you don’t go away.’
