Are You The One?

Chapter 8: My New Friend

Your POV

"Aww, aren't you the cutest!", I reached down to caress the fluffy cat that was making circles around me.

He had perfectly groomed shiny black fur and dark emerald eyes. He began to purr as I caressed him, massaging his back, making him close his eyes his little eyes.
He gave me a meow followed by a small groan as if he were saying "ah yes that's the spot".

"I didn't know Tony had a kitty in the tower.", I said as I threw Thor's poptart away in the nearest trash bin. I picked up the cat gently to see if he'd let me, which he did.
Apperantly he enjoyed being in my arms because he started purring louder, making my heart die from cuteness.

"So what's your name my little prince?", I glance at him, his eyes on me now. His eyes are really familiar, I've seen them before.

Perhaps I'm turning crazy.

"Meow", he responds staring up at me.

I pull him closer to smell him fluffyness. He somehow smelled like mint and book pages. The smell was so soothing, I kept breathing in his fresh aroma for a while.

"You remind me of a certain god I know and he smells good too.", I tell him as I pull away from him and place him back down, then gently pat his head.

I was tired even though I didn't do anything today. I wanted to sleep, try to still regain strength for my powers to be in full potential. I walked over to my room. Then I felt the presence of the cat, following me.

I guess he likes me.

"You want to sleep with me my prince?", I ask the kitty as if he could answer.

"Meow"

"Hehe, perfect. Then I'll show you to our chambers, my prince.", I said, mocking Thor's accent.

Once I opened the door to my room, he jumped on my bed, making himself comfortable, already. I laid on my bed and reached to grab my diary that was on the nightstand. I opened it to write my intro of the day. Then I felt the presence of the cat right next to me. I looked at his direction as he glanced at the page. I gently massaged his neck.

"Silly kitty, as if you could read.", I caressed his little furry cheek.

Loki's POV

Oh but my dear lucky for me, I can.

Heather's smile made my heart warm, hey eyes looking down on the page of her diary. I couldnt keep my eyes off her. Even the stars seem dull compared to her beauty, never in my life have I met such a dashing specimen.
She began writing on the book and I began to read. I couldn't help myself.

Hey journal,
Bruce force me into writing how my days go, every day, even though it seems useless. A lot of things happen in the past couple of days, Thor keeps ignoring me which I find aggravating..

Thor? How could she be interested in the person who almost took advantage of her?, I thought to myself as I kept reading.

I understand, ale could really make you into your worst self. Anyways, I haven't a seen Loki around, so that's that. I hope he comes around, so we could get to know each other. I'd really love to...

Oh, Me? Why would she want to know about me, am I really that charming?, I smiled at her as she was turned red at writing my name.

He's tall and very very handsome. I've never seen such a dashing man before.

Am I now?, I began to purr and ran my face against her shoulder, making me purr even more.

"Back in my dimension, everyone would make me miserable, corrupting my mind to the worst and it made me do unimaginable things to them. I regret it very much but once I came to this place, everyone had been nothing but wonderful to me.", she turned to me, her eyes droopy, almost sad.

"I know that they care Tony, Bruce, Nat, all of them. They treat me as an.. as an equal. I fear I'm getting to attached to them. Thor is wonderful and Loki is the most intriguing man I've ever met and maybe..."

Maybe???

"Nevermind kitty, I know it could never happen, another lie I was told to memorize. I can't get attached, they're all going to die anyways.", she said cheering her sad tone into a serious one.

DIE?! WHY WOULD WE DIE?!

"The curse will never vanquish, it'll never let me go.", Heather closed her eyes and does her head on the pillow she was leaning on.

What curse? We'll die because of this curse? What does she mean by I'm intriguing!? What is she hiding??

A massive load of thoughts ran through my head, making me more curious than confused.

For eyes began to look heavy, she leaned her head towards me, kissing my forehead

"Nighty-night kitty"

She wrapped her perfect body with the fluffy blanket she had beside her. I just stared. Looking at her sleep was the most peaceful activity ever. Even though she might be dangerous, I still feel comfort around her, enchanting me more and more.

I began to walk towards her, longing for her warm touch, I felt her skin against my fur, to lay next to her. I slowly close my eyes to the sound and pace of her peaceful, beautiful, breathing. Resting beside her my thoughts began to fade.

Goodnight Heather...
