You walk along a path's edge per usual, slightly humming as you balance to not fall in the river below you. You had been along many bridges, and many much like this one, but never had you felt the way you felt now in Asgard."Careful, we don't want to you to slip do we?" A smooth voice says. You smile a bit, recognizing it as Loki. "Ah, don't make me push myself into the river." You tease. "If that's what you want, I'm sure it can be arranged." He responds, walking faster so he could walk besides you.
The young prince noticed your book. "And what is your new read?" He asks. "Not very new anymore, finished it this morning." You say, handing it to him. "I stole it so, you don't really need to give it back." You add. He smirks to your little story and examines the cover and it's spine.
"Another Midgaurdian tale? You know these are all myths right?" He smiles. "If you think about it- every book could be a myth. Even They believe your nothing but imagination." You tease, doing a magic finger gesture. "That's absurd." He rolls his eyes.
You give out a small giggle and say "your absurd." He smiles at you and says "watch your tone darling wouldn't want you to slip." Loki was always sly. Something you loved about him. You slightly blush and begin your next comeback, before Lady Sif, Thor and a few other friends approach.
"I do request you stop stealing from the libraries, Y/n, or Odin might have your head soon." Sif says, threateningly. You laugh, "Oh if he could even catch me. Has anyone ever told you your a silly little knight? Silly. Little. Knight." You finally say, getting under the brunettes skin.
"Say it again." She says through her teeth. "Sure." You add, getting closer, "Silly. Little. Knight." She unsheathes her sword, making you smirk again. "Lady Sif!" Thor scolds. She swings at you, as you dodge with ease. You were from earth, and forced to take Gymmnastic classes as a kid. You knew your way around this warrior.
You studied all of the Guild's moves. Surprised, but still pissed Sif continues to try and injury you. "Who were you trained by again?" You ask, raising a eyebrow. "Oh you'll always be alone! Your a coward!" Sif insults, you held back a little Teleportation spark and keep your smirk. "Resulting to emotional daggers now? Sounds like someone's getting a little desperate perhaps?" You tease.
"That never seemed to be a problem for him." Sif says, obviously pointing to Loki. You kick her back in the stomach and snicker. "Enough!" Thor says, "she does seem like she has had enough." You add, stepping back and beginning to leave. "AGH!" She screams and immediately tried to atleast slit you. "y-Y/N" Loki quickly yells. You Teleport away, before turning around with your eyes widened.
You accidentally teleported, Now behind Loki. All of them look shocked. Including Loki. You just take a step back before glitching again so you could go faster. "You- WENCH! If you ever touch her again- I'll slit your throat like a dog!"
Loki threatens Sif before speed walking your way. You were teleporting small distances but nevertheless still the same way you ran. "Damn it.." you finally say, your hands balanced on your knees as tears fall onto them.
Your hands form into fists, "damn it.." you say again, your voice breaking. You look at your hand again, it was glitching. "Stupid- CURSE!" You finally break, punching a thick tree. Your fist now bled, as bruises began to form. You glance at the blood before punching again, and inching your fist back faster, only for it to be stopped by a hand.
"Your- Cursed?" Loki asks. You flinch and teleport again in surprise. You fell behind him. "Its alright. I can heal it, Im royalty, We can find somebody who can heal you Y/n, I'll make sure of it." Loki assures you. You look down, "I'ts- not like that." You respond.
"Of course it is, every curse has a cure. Darling- In a swipe of a second I can fix it! I just need you to cooperate." Loki says, stepping closer. "No- Listen Loki- Its not like that- You'll get hurt okay?!" You speak up, "No- its not! I am not letting you die!" Loki follows.
"Loki- Ill die without it.." You say, glancing down. The forest seemed awfully quiet now. "It's.. I was sick before it happened.. And when i- I was able to Run again, And... I did." You explain. "I'm not from here." You add.
"And I know I don't belong..." you confirm, clenching your eyes closed. You didn't want to see his face. What he'd think. A portal formed below you, another spurt or teleportation flares would occur. Like it did everyday.
As you begun to fall, a hand grabbed your wrist. As your legs dangled in the ever changing void, you looked up. Loki gripped your wrist, as if he was the one hanging for his life.
"I know- I'm not king, but I will be! And everyone will respect you the way I do! If anyone even gives you a bad glance I'll gut them-!- I WILL!-Stay!"
"You Must stay here!- Stay with me.!"
You felt little droplets fall onto your cheek. He was crying. The Lump in your throat almost hurt now.
"Or.. I will go with you." he finishes.
"A king doesn't beg..." you resite,
"He takes."You grab his hand and let him pull you up. He hugs you closely the moment you touched the Asgardian Soil.
"I love you.." Loki breathes out. You blink, before looking to the Jotun. Those words, you knew he struggled with. He couldn't say it to his brother, or his father. Only his mother heard those words. The words you just heard.
You hug him tighter, you wanted to let him know you wouldn't leave. "I love you too."
"And I wish you'd realize that there isn't a cure for me." you add, "And I believe you were the one who snuck into My father's treasure chamber." Loki responds, "The All healing Sprout, can heal any curse. It will work." Loki says, in a pleading voice.
"Any curse In the 9 Realms." you correct, "I'm not from the Nine Realms." He cups your face. "That doesn't matter. It will still work Y/n."
"And if it does?" you ask. "You'll be okay."
You hum, covering his hand."I've heard that one before."
