Burdened with glorious purpose

Chapter 9

"What are you... Why are you..." You had so many questions.

"Brother, why help us?" Loki asked.

"I've been on Asgard for weeks and I look at you both day and night. You look so miserable" Thor spoke.

You and Loki both looked confused.

"Father told me what happened"

You both laughed at your somewhat failed attempt to take over Asgard.

"But he then told me how much you both love each other. Loki I really had no idea Lady Aite meant that much to you" He continued.

"Y/N! My name is Y/N! Is it that hard to call me by my first name" You shouted.

Since you and Loki were supposed to be on the run from Thor you had no idea why he was helping you and you both certainly didn't trust him.

"I'm setting you free, you don't deserve to be locked away. You brought father back so your crime isn't that bad" Thor reminded you.

You and Loki both looked at each other, you saw this as a perfect escape plan.

"Well thanks Thor, It means a lot that you still care about your brother and your childhood friend" You told him.

"But we really must be going" Loki spoke.

You both did your usual disappearing act and vanished from the dungeons.

...

You and Loki somehow made it on his ship, but you were still on Asgard so you had to leave quickly.

"Honestly, you would really think he would stop falling for that wouldn't you" You laughed to Loki.

Loki Ignored that comment about Thor and instead he came up behind you, pulled you in by the waist and said. "I missed you so much darling" He looked very genuine as he spoke to you.

"Ummmmm who are you and where is the Loki who would never admit that, disappeared too?" You laughed at Loki's attempt of being soft.

For some reason he looked quiet sad and you felt guilty for laughing at him.

You smiled innocently at him, you turned around to face Loki and you buried your face into his chest. You let out a sigh of relief.

"I missed you too my king"

You could feel Loki's smirk form as you called him that.

"Nothing has changed" You muttered under your breathe.

"What was that?" Loki questioned.

Your head shot up and looked at him. "I said... I'm tired and we should probably get some rest" You re phrased your sentence.

"That's strange because I could of sworn I heard you say-"

"Shushhhh" You interrupted him as you placed your finger on his lips.

In theory you really were tired so technically you wasn't lying.

"Well if my queen is that tired, to bed we shall go" Loki told you.

...

Laying in your bed felt amazing, the hard bedframes in the dungeons were horrible and giving you back pain and to finally be able to be in Loki's arms again felt wonderful as well.

You both laid there in silence enjoying each-others company. Your head rested on his chest as Loki played with you hair.

When Loki played with your hair it made you very sleepy and Loki knew this.

'Maybe that's why he is doing it?' You thought to yourself.

"Yes my dear, I'm trying to help you sleep. Now close your eyes and get some rest" He clearly just read your mind again.

'Why do you read my mind all the time, I hate it when you do it' you said to yourself as you didn't want to say it out loud.

"Sorry" Loki whispered gently as he kissed you on the forehead.

Eventually, you had drifted off to sleep and Loki was soon to follow. All that was left to do now was sleep and wait for what tomorrow had in store for you both.
