"It's okay if you don't want to, but it's about your nickname." I looked at him "carry on" I mumbled "calling you 'snake' seems really offensive if I used it for you, mind if I call you something different?" He asked politely. "Well I suppose, try think of something overnight. Maybe something that fits who I am." As I said pushing the door "goodnight Loki, sleep well."
"Goodnight darling" he replied as I went back down the hall, it did make me blush I must admit.

I got to my bed and I was exhausted but I couldn't get to sleep because there was something on my mind that I just couldn't stop.



Loki.


Eventually I gave up and got out of bed again, walked down the hallway and tried my best to go in Loki's bedroom as silently as I could. I got into his bed and he turned around to look at me "can't sleep?" He said in a sleepy voice, "yeah, I hope you don't mind this" he smiled and nodded "no worries, I can't sleep myself." I smiled and turned myself around to the edge of the bed and then I felt a warm arm hold me. I blushed so hard but I couldn't let him see. He pulled me close and buried his face in my hair. I think that might've been the best nights of sleep I ever had.

Fast forward a couple of weeks.

Loki hadn't found a nickname for me yet until he crept through my chamber doors "hello Aesira, I have something to tell you."

Was that my new nickname? I thought, however I liked it.

"What's up Loki?". He sat down next to me on the bed "I have been removed from Asgard." My eyes were wide, could this be the end of everything? "But why Loki, am I ever going to see you aga-" I was interrupted by him "and I'd like you to come with me." I froze mid-sentence and gave him a 'what!?' Look. I then brought back my cool. "Where to is what I want to know." I was curious you know? Didn't want to be going to a land practically made of ice. "We're going to Midgard." Explained Loki "Thor won't be coming as he is not banned from Asgard.". As he said this, I worried a little bit. What if something did happen? But I shrugged that thought out of my mind. "Okay! Let's go then."

We walked down the rainbow bridge and it was long enough for a conversation "so Aesira? Is that my nickname? Or did you mistake me for another girl in the palace?" He looked at me almost in confusion "why would you think that? You're the only woman I talk to in the palace I have you know."

So that was my nickname!?

Anyway we asked Heimdall to Midgard. He nodded and sent us to Midgard, but by this light that went up and up. And up and up and up. Until we landed on the top of this building, someone said we were in England but I didn't know what that was. We walked with each other to see not so pretty sights, we weren't ready to settle in.

Dear diary..

I'm sure something is wrong. We've been here a couple of weeks and bought a little cottage in London, I've  been listening to the radio you see. Everyone is talking about this 'World War II' as such I mean we have wars all the time but it wasn't the whole of Asgard against each other, that would be stupid. But at this point it seems pretty likely, I'm very worried about Loki just because he told me "I'll fight not to keep the world safe, but to keep you safe because I care about you Aesira, alright?"

I don't want him fighting, and I don't care if I'm not allowed I'll fight by his side when he least expect it. So I'll make my own weapons and get to it.

That's all I wrote..that's all I wrote before there was an urgent announcement.

"To all of the citizens of Britain, I have an announcement. Today war has been declared among Germany." My eyes flowed with tears as I hugged Loki sitting beside me "I don't want you to go, you're all I've ever had." He pecked me on the forehead which made me blush but I think he couldn't tell by how much I was crying "don't worry darling, everything is going to be fine."

I knew it wasn't.

"Loki, I don't care if women aren't allowed to fight, I'm coming with you." His eyes opened in sadness and shock "no no darling, I'm not letting you do that." I looked at him dead in the eye and argued "listen! I don't want you going out there but I know you have to, so I'm coming with you." He replied with his voice slightly risen "No you listen! I will not let you out there! Because- because I cannot lose you!" Then his voice calmed down "every time I'm in your embrace, I feel a sense of care like nobody else. You're the girl in my life I felt like I've known for ages, but if you're gone, I'm afraid as to what I'd do without you."
