Who Are You? (A Marvel FanFic)

Acceptance, Questions, and Realizations

Author's Note: This draft has been in an open tab for a few days now, so figured I would actually finish writing it and get it out to you lol. 

"Oh dear. I do believe we may have caused a disruption," Loki smirks before lightly kissing you again, as the company scurries out of the palace. 

The room emptied quickly, leaving only you, Loki, Thor, Odin, and Frigga. 

"What was that?!" Odin asks after a few seconds of silence.

"A kiss, which I thought was rather obvious, but I will gladly demonstrate it again," Loki smirks, but also grips your hand tighter.

You elbow Loki in the side, "Your majesty, I can expl..."

"Silence!" Odin's voice booms once more. "You have just let one....'kiss', ruin any chance of a suitor!"

You clear your throat, "See, here's the thing. It has not exactly been...ONE kiss..."

"As of this evening, I am Hlin's suitor," Loki takes a step in front of you.

"Is that so?" Odin looks between the two of you. "And who has approved this?"

You almost laugh, "The only 2 who have a say, myself and Loki."

"Protectress, you forget who rules here," he shakes his head.

"It is truly a shame then that this decision has already been made," you step forward, now in line with Loki.

"Then here is one more to make," a smile suddenly appears on Odin's face. "You can either keep the title, or...Loki as your suitor."

Loki storms forward, dagger appearing in his hand, "How DARE you! Hlin is the only one wort..."

"Loki," you say loud enough stop Loki's sentence.

Loki freezes his ascend to Odin and all eyes dart to you in surprise.

"I step down from my title. The choice is simple, as there is only one. Loki," you've taken a few steps forward as well.

"Alright," Odin pauses and then a new expression forms on his face. "I guess that means Loki has also informed you of his true lineage?"

Your heart sinks when you see Loki's shoulders slump, not facing you.

"Odin!" 

"Father!"

Frigga and Thor say at the same time.

Odin never looks away from Loki, "Show Hlin what you truly are!"

No one says another word, "SHOW HER!" 

That tone breaks your silence, "STOP IT!" 

Odin's eyes leave Loki and shift to you.

"He doesn't have to!" Your fists clench and unclench. "I...I already know."

Thor and Frigga turn to you, but Loki still faces away.

Odin squints, "How?"

"Loki...showed me when we were children," as you speak, Loki slowly turns around.

"Impossible. Loki did not know of his lineage until just recently," Odin rolls his eyes.

"At the time, we just saw it as another magic trick. But," you look down and then back up. "I was reading and saw a photo of Frost Giants. The skin matched that on Loki."

Loki looks at you with sorrow in his eyes, "Hlin...you and I have..."

You nod, "Yes." You smile comfortingly at Loki, which seems to give a drop of relaxation in him.
