The Love Of Mischief

Chapter 53

As Loki packs an overnight bag, I take a few seconds to admire his muscular back, then as I turn away, a pair of arms slide around my waist from behind, holding me gently in place.
"I'm going to miss you," Loki whispers, tightening his grip. He places his lips on the pulse point of my neck, which he knows I can't resist (I wouldn't have said no but Loki was the one who put us on a sex ban a week before the wedding) I place my free hand on top of his. We stay like this till I turn around so we face one another. I can feel Loki's heartbeat against my back.
"It's only for one night and then you get me all to yourself"
"Since my trip to Jotunheim, We have never spent a night apart. Going to be rather strange" Loki kissed my neck "Though, I ain't going to miss your hair attacking me in the early hours"
"That I can't help, I'm asleep. I can't control this lion's mane" I ran my hands through my hair. Loki chuckled.
"Oh, I didn't tell you. Thor asked me when are we having kids" Loki smiled.
"Oh god, What did you say?" I spun around so I was now facing Loki.
"I said I would whenever he is ready to babysit 7 days a week. He was like don't you want to bring a mini you into this world" Loki deepened his voice.
"Oh my. What was your response?" I giggled.
"That I can't take care of regular size me and that I am getting married just so I have some sort of supervision" Loki laughed.
"And we still have a few weeks before we can tell anyone" I put my hand over my tummy. As did Loki.
"You know full well, I would shout it from the rooftops that you are carrying my child" Loki smiled softly "I wonder who is in there? Girl or Boy?"
"What would you prefer?"
"Boy. But either gender is fine really. As long as they are healthy. You?"
"Boy. Don't think you could handle two girls fighting over the bathroom or when our daughter starts dating"
"Oh, she can date. When I get to meet the person and deem they are suitable" Loki pouted "You will be the same for our son and where is the hairbrush?"
"In the bathroom and if our son is anything like his father, He won't care and will date them anyway" I kiss Loki and walked away and went to the bathroom.
"You can't burn them if I can't stab them!" Loki called after me. I grabbed a hairbrush and walked back out.
"I wasn't going to" This time I pouted. Loki took the hairbrush and put it in his bag.
"Remember who you are talking" Loki rolled his eyes "What time are you meeting the girls?"
"An hour after sunset" I looked out the window. We only had a few hours left together.
"In that case, Shall we get dinner together?" he mouths against my hair.
"I'd like that" Loki releases his grip. I don't want him to go but I know he has to "Come on," He says as I pull out of his embrace and we head towards the doorway. He follows behind quickly, snatching my hand and lacing their fingers together. Our hands swing between us. Like we didn't have a care in the world.

As we get to the kitchen, We hear voices. We sigh as we let our hands fall to our sides. I take a step forward but Loki stops me as he stands so he's in front of me, one hand wrapped around my waist while the other runs through my hair.
"May as well say goodbye now" Loki leaned his forehead on mine "Just think, This time tomorrow, We will be husband and wife"
"I am so ready for this"
"Try not to burn anyone tonight" Loki bopped my nose.
"I'll try my best, but no promises" I smiled "If I can't burn them, You can't stab anyone"
"I'll try my best, but no promises" Loki winks as he repeated my words. He was about to speak when I smashed my lips against his. He responds instantly. Pressing his mouth to mine so hard I think my lips might bruise. I whimper a little when he pulls back.
"Feels like we are back to where we first started"
"Except we don't need to sneak around"
"I will see you at the alter" With one more peck to my lips, he murmurs "I love you"
"I'll be the one in white," I smirk, stepping away from him "And I love you" We linger for a moment before I walked into the kitchen, Greeting Lady Sif and Thor.

Loki's party had been ordered (By Lady Sif) to stay on the other side of the palace (Thor and Lady Sif didn't trust Loki's will to stay away from me or to go home with me. If I am being honest, I didn't trust me not to take him home either).
