Thousand Years

Secret Entrance

Tossing and turning in her sleep Y/N wakes up and watches Loki peacefully sleeping. Led in bed she tries to think of a plan where they can live their life without hiding. What they were doing was a temporary fix and sooner or later they would have to confront Odin about her banishment, she was no kid now and her powers are somewhat controlled.
Loki turned and laid his arm over her torso with his face nuzzled in her neck. They have been through a lot and they deserved happiness, they only wanted each other.
Slowly her eyelids get heavy and she nodded back off to sleep again.

'Y/N, Wake up my love. Let us head to the market and walk around the palace gardens'

'Urgh, why are you an early bird' she croaks.

Loki opens a wardrobe door,

'I preserved your old clothes' he grinned proudly.

'Wow, I never could get used to these frumpy ballroom clothes. My mother would always tell me off for wearing my fathers trousers. I always thought I would join the mighty Valkyrior - the group of amazing female warriors but my parents were not too keen' she frowned.

'Some of these dresses would earn too much attention' he raises a black dress with gold details.
'Though I am sure you would look divine in it'

While staring in the mirror her confidence grew, grabbing a green dress some memories came flooding back, she bought this for a party at the palace she noticed Loki could not keep his eyes off her the entire night but she kept close to her parents that night they were invited for her fathers services.

'Uhm, darling. Weapons do not normally get hidden in a dress, I suspect you are planning something and I do hope you share it with me' Loki stands beside her.

'We are going to pay your father a visit, I don't want to keep hiding. Hemidall has possibly already felt your power here so it is only a matter of time before they find us'

Loki knew she was right but was still hesitant, what if he banishes her again or locks her up.
Y/N could see his worried expression and the silence said it all.

'We have to try, if I get permanently banished then I can use the space stone and find another home for us. This is our home and I at least want to fight for it' Y/N pouted.

'I know a secret entrance into the castle,they will be in the throne room in an hour, their standard routine. We need to leave now. I could teleport us but they will sense my power and know our location. I prefer to speak to my father without being surrounded by guards' Y/N nodded in agreement and Loki gets dressed.

'You are still bringing your knives? don't think that will bring a good message' Loki remarks.
'Well we need to be prepared for anything Lok. We have no idea how anyone will react' she continues to hide the knives around her body.

Loki uses an illusion to disguise them again and they head off through the streets heading to the side of the palace.
They were near the small door at the side entrance, large boulders were slightly in front and ivy has overtaken the path. Guards walking their route started to get closer, Loki looked up and was about to use his magic when Y/N grabbed his face with both hands began to kiss passionately as if they were young secret lovers, they were ignored and the guards walked passed, one tutted and shook his head ,they were alone again.

'I could get used to that' grinned Y/N and Loki gave a smirk
'It is clear, let us go before they make their rounds again'
Heading through the door they took a candle from the wall and headed through the long dark corridor. Their breathing was the only sound they could hear. Edging closer they heard pots and pans and some mumbling.

'I had the perfect pork roast lined up for this afternoon but no, last minute they demanded for beef' the man threw his arms up in the air
'I mean we haven't had beef in ages why now all of a sudden' he huffed and left with the second man who shrugged.
Loki stood still and began to think about what he just heard, beef was his favourite he heard a sound and noticed Y/N was already up ahead.

'Did you..' he was interrupted with Y/N's finger on his lips and a scowled look. She jolted her head backwards and he saw guards sat on a table having their break. Loki glowed green and shrouded her too and they were disguised as guards.
Now walking towards the throne room both of their hearts were beating faster.

'Son?'

Loki twirled around he knew that voice and it brought him great comfort, he dropped his disguise as soon as he saw her face.

'Mother!'

She opened her arms and Loki ran and hugged her tightly. Y/N got emotional wishing she got that chance when she arrived yesterday at her childhood home, missing her mum.

'I am so glad your safe but you look awful my dear, like you have not slept in years and the stress shows' Frigga stroked his cheek with a comforting smile she then realises Y/N.
'Y/N?! Oh darling how lovely to see you! You grew up well and the power inside of you is as strong as ever,almost controlled but I feel it is still rebellious' she winks.

'Mother, father knows I'm here doesn't he? I heard the kitchen servant say they changed the menu last minute to beef. I love beef and pork is always favoured by others. Odin is expecting us'

Frigga smiling turned to her son.

'As smart as ever, as sharp as your daggers my son. Yes, Heimdall sensed your power and alerted us to your arrival. Only we did not expect a visit so soon,we thought you would hide it out first' she paused and looked up at both Y/N and Loki who were now cuddled up into each other.
'I promise I will do my best for you both, I seen it in the beginning, soulmates and it crushed me that day when Odin could not push past his pride. I never agreed with his decision, I tried back then but he was also arrogant. I better go find him he will be looking for me. Lovely to see you both again,my heart dances'
Holding both their arms she then gives them a little squeeze and walked towards the throne room.
