Now And Forever

Chapter 16

- Loki's Pov -

"So that actually happened?" Thalia panted as I pulled the quilt over us "Please tell me I am not dreaming"
"Yeah, it did happen" I put one arm around my love and one arm behind my head "That felt so different"
"What do you mean?" Thalia laid her head on my chest. One hand draped over my stomach.
"Whenever I have been with someone, I couldn't wait to get the deed over and done with and get rid of them. This time. It felt right and I don't want you to ever leave me"
"Loki, I do understand that. It felt like..." Thalia clicked her fingers as she tried to think of the words "I can't explain it"
"It felt like why haven't we been doing this the whole time" I sighed "At least it did for me"
"And me" Thalia smiled.
"Never before have I seen such beauty laying beneath me"
"Loki, -" Thalia went to speak but instead, I kissed her. Thalia did try to pull me closer but I held back a little "What's wrong?"
"Trust me when I say that I want to have you more but, I'm afraid that I may lose myself completely" I had struggled to hold back earlier.
"I wouldn't be complaining" Thalia laughed and she shuffled a little. She hissed a little.
"Are you alright my darling?" I spoke worriedly, Thalia stared at me. She put a hand on my cheek.
"Other than I ache in places that I wasn't aware could ache" She wiggled a little. This brought a smile to my face.
"I didn't know you had a tattoo on your ankle?" I did but I didn't want Thalia to find out that Chris had told me.
"You saw that huh?" Thalia pinched her lips together.
"Bit hard to miss when your legs were over my shoulders" I smirked as Thalia bit her lip "What does it mean?"
"I kept dreaming of it. I think it is a protection symbol. I could be wrong. Not that it has done much good in the ways of protection" Thalia scoffed.
"Maybe it did some good, It brought you to me" I pulled Thalia closer to me "I do plan on protecting your heart"
"And I yours" Thalia's hand moved up to my chest and she placed it on the left side.
"How are you feeling darling?" I asked before I placed another kiss on my love's forehead.
"I feel great. Sore but great"
"I feel like I should have been more gentle with you" I admitted.
"Loki, I am not glass. No need to be so delicate"
"No, You are much like a crystal. One of a kind, unique and special. A piece of the universe, Vibrating to your own unique frequency. Given the right light, You are your own universe. Capable of shining bright amount the dark and infinite sky" Thalia blushed at my poetic words. Unable to say anything. her mouth flapped open like a fish out of water "Cat got your tongue?"
"You really know how to flatter a girl" Thalia rolled her eyes after she finally stuttered out the sentence. I couldn't help but chuckle. My fingers made their way to her hair and started playing with it.
"Your hair is so soft, I love playing with it."
"Yeah, I've noticed that. Please do not stop"
"I won't"

We decided to lay in bed for a little longer. Mainly because Thalia's legs were still a little jelly but also because it was cosy.
"We need to get out of this bed. It's nearly lunchtime" Thalia spoke. I let out a groan.
"But I don't want to" I pouted. Thalia then pulled a face which told me she was thinking of something but before I could say anything, Thalia sat on me. Not that I am complaining but I know she is up to something "What are you doing?"
"I thought this would be a good idea and now I ain't so sure" Thalia bit her lip. she tucked her hair behind her ear. It had a lot more volume than normal. Her curls were bouncier than ever.
"Just out of curiosity, What was your plan?" I grabbed Thalia's hips.
"Distract you long enough to let me go and jump out of bed" Thalia wiggled her hips.
"Don't do that"
"What distract you or this?" Thalia repeated her previous actions. I had to grip her hips tighter. Thalia's face had a smirk on it.
"Both" I growled. Thalia tilted her head at me "Thought I was meant to be the God Of Mischief?"
"Oh you are" Thalia leaned down. I could feel her breath on my ear "But I can do it better" I don't know why but this sent a shiver down my spine. With a growl, I wrapped my arms around Thalia and spun her so I was now on top.
"Really want to play that game?"
"Afraid I could beat you?" Thalia taunted. God, I love this woman. Thalia ran a finger along my jaw.
"You asked for it" I growled.
