Passed Holidays
The holidays are always nice but loud and expensive. Our first Christmas together, Tony had us pick out of a hat what was our job for the holiday. Decorating the tree, getting/ making the food, arranging games and movies, etc. Each job would have 3-4 people involved. Since the Christmas of 2012, we've had the same jobs. As we got more recruits, we placed them in different jobs as the holiday came and went.

Decor is - Natasha, Wanda, Clint and me
Food - Bruce, Tony, Vision and Thor
Games and movies -  Steve, Rhode, and Bucky
Presents - Everyone

Thor doesn't come for every Christmas, so sometimes we draw to see who takes his job and does their own as well. But he usually comes. He always thinks it's weird that we "worship" a fat man in fuzzy clothes. And everyone and then, hill bring Loki along. Much to Lokis disappointment, but he never try's to leave. Loki doesn't help with anything, but he's not afraid to judge the decor or criticize the food. Not everyone finds it funny, but for me and Thor, it's entertaining.

When the Asgardians come, Thor stays in the room closest to the living space and Loki one or two doors from my room. It's a whole nother story why I live in the compound, so I won't get into it. But when he does come, he always stays up and paces while mumbling. Nice rooms but thin walls.

Present Holiday

Walking out of the compound, a big cylinder of rainbow comes from the sky and out comes Thor and Loki. "Happy present day!" Thor exclaims. Loki annoyed, rolled his eyes in toe with Thor as he walks to me. I give both brothers a smile with red cheeks from the biting cold and contemplating if I should correct Thor's greeting. "You both came this year! Happy to have you." I decided not to. "Yes and brought gifts form home for all to open." He cheered, handing me a small box wrapped with beautiful green, red and black dyed leather. Thor runs off to the compound to give everybody else their presents, leaving me and Loki in the cold.

"Best you open it now." Loki adds. "There's five more days till the holiday, why?" "It's not form Thor." He says while walking by me, backward so he can hold my gaze. My face gets hotter, but not from the cold. He turns and walks to the door, but as he turns I catch a glimpse of his hands behind his back, turning an icy blue at his finger tips.

As I follow, I open the box, being careful with the leather place the lid under the main compartment. Inside said box, a beautiful silver blade and a green-black marble handle. A dagger. I marvel at the beauty, how perfect my reflection is on the blade as I pick it us with a gentle hand. Very light to my surprise. I look back forward and see Loki looking back with his neck turning the icy blue that was on his finger tips. I begin to walk towards him but he had already turned his gaze to the insides of the compound, and went in.

I couldn't help but grin to myself as I continued back to the compound.
