Are You The One?

Chapter 7: Catching Up

~Stark Tower~

Your POV

Days had past, since that night, Thor avoided and ignored me everytime we crossed paths. He'd glance at me and his cheeks would burn red, dying from embarrassment. Ale could do crazy things when it takes over. I get that.

I hope we get to talk and sort things out.

Sadly, the team that had rescued me in space, The Guardians of the Galaxy, had to go back to their adventures. Their teammate Gamora, wanted to spend more time with her friends. Gamora's memories were really harsh, just like Natashas. I know she was in love with Peter Quill but never showed it and this time she claims to want to enjoy her time with him and not waste it like she did before.
As they all said their goodbyes to the Avengers and I, Gamora gave me another thanks for bringing her back. As the Guardians walked back to their ship, Peter turned back to give me a single head nod. I never felt more helpful in my life. I quickly bowed my head in response, as a "you're welcome".

Good job, you're doing great, I thought to myself and smiled.

Today was also the day where Tony and Pepper went all out by announcing that he was, indeed alive.

"The crowd will go wild once they see Tony's face again.", Pepper says as she rolls her eyes.

"He's really big here. Don't worry, he won't say anything to put you in jeopardy, alright hun?", she says with a warm smile.

"Mhm, don't worry I trust you guys.", I said calmly.

From Tony's memories, I do remember that he was sort of famous in the city of New York, for I think creating advanced technology, or something. All his memories really did was give me the information about being an American, good soundtracks, and food references.

They had given me the choice of mentioning me, letting the world know that a mysterious girl brought him back from the dead or not mentioning how he's alive and keep my powers a secret from people who would take advantage of them. I didn't want any attention from other parties, therefore deciding to keep myself a secret.

"Alright, squirt we gotta go now, but please help yourself to Thor's secret stash of poptarts.", Tony winks at me.

"Squirt?", I laugh.

"Um yea what are you, like 19?", he says as he's fixing his red tie, looking at the mirror.

"Tony, time works differently where I come from I'm about a million years old. I'm definitely not a kid."

"WHAT!? YOUR EVEN OLDER THAN ALL OF US COMBINED!", he raised his voice in confusion, now looking towards me.

I didn't know I was older than everyone, but hey it made sense.

"So don't call me squirt, ok Tones?", I said as I giggled.

He raised his eyebrow and smiled, walking towards the exit glass doors with Pepper by his side.

"Fine, later ancient one! If you need anything Thunderhead and Reindeer Games will still be around in the tower.", he says without turning around making me smile and roll my eyes.

"Later Tones, bye Pepper!", I said, raising my voice a little so they would hear me as they left through the doors and into their fancy car.

I knew they weren't going to be here all day, so might as well get comfortable. I locked myself in my room to relax a bit. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

It's just the god brothers, I thought to myself. What could go wrong?

As I went to lay on my fluffy bed, faint screams filled the hallway. It didn't seem like a big threat, just a argument.

They're fighting already? Wow.

I jumped out my bed and walked out my door to follow the screams which were becoming more and more clear.

"YOU WHAT!?", I heard Loki scream angrily.

"I had no other option brother, I was mourning you, I was in pain. P-plus, she's a magnificent ruler!", Thor said with some hesitation.

"Who's she?! Tell me now!", Loki fixed his tone a bit.

"Well brother.. remember who fought beside us back in Sakaar?", Thor seemed worried for Loki's response.

"YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU GAVE OUR BIRTHRIGHT AWAY, AGAIN?! TO THE VALERIE??" WHY YOU-", before Loki finished his sentence, I awkwardly ran off to my room.

I don't want to be involved in this brother drama, or whatever that shit was.

Thor's POV

"Loki relax! It's fine, we both didn't need that throne and we're both good without it!!", I tried speaking some sense. Loki was not responding, he was now looking at the wall with his hands crossed.

The silent treatment.

"Really brother? Are you going to act this childlike?", I lowered my tone and crossed my arms, he began to pace.

"Brother, please don't be mad at me I'm very s-", before I finished my saying, Loki shoved me back and turned into a black cat, who was now hissing at me. He usually shapeshifted into something to hide his emotions physically.
He leaped on my face and scratched the living hell out of me.

"DAMN YOU LOKI!", I immediately grabbed the fluffy cat with both my hands and a swunged it across the room. He landed on its feet and hissed at me once more, before he ran away out into the mildly open door of my room.

"LOKI COME BACK YOU-", I chased him, looked into the hallway but he was gone from my sight.

Great, now I need to go, find him AND apologize for throwing him.

Your POV

I decided to explore the rest of the Stark Tower, and when I mean explore, I mean eat all of Thor's poptarts.
It was already getting dark and I was excited to see the view from the top. Something about a sunset that would really make my day even better.

As I wait standing in front of the massive glass window for the sunset, I hear a meow below me.

Beside me was a beautiful pitch black creature, rubbing his fur against my leg, which began to purr at my touch.

A kitty!
