The clock reads 4:16 and i haven't eaten anything in the last 2 days, and my belly is beginning to growl. I want to go and find something to eat, but then again I don't because i know he's out there. An hour ago i heard pages flipping from a book, and then the TV turn on, and then he played some classical music. He hasn't made much sound in an hour, so either he left, is asleep or is planning to kill me. My belly growls really loud, and it makes me begin to feel sick again. Ugh, i'm gonna do it. 

I kick myself off of the bed, feeling a tight jolt in my chest and i start to have a terrible coughing fit. Once i regain myself i quietly and slowly make my way out to the kitchen. So far there is no Loki in sight, i walk into the living room, nope. The bathroom, nope. Then i walk outside, and don't see any trace of him out there either. I walk back into the house, and feel like my anxiety is going to start taking control. Where is he? He's probably hiding somewhere waiting to kill me. I walk back into the kitchen and over to Tony's bar and pour myself a glass of some fruity pink beverage that doesn't have an English name. It stings a little going down, but after a few sips my nerves have returned and it barely affects me as much. I pour myself another glass and walk back to the kitchen table. There's a white note sitting there that reads "I'll be back around 5:00, went to go grab something." The clock reads 4:37 so i decide that i have enough time to go jump in the shower real quick without him returning. Hopefully.

I hustle my way towards the shower and undress as quick as i can without hurting myself too much. The nice warm water feels so cool and refreshing. My joints almost fully ease. Why is he so cold? Maybe that's why he gets so mad when i called him cold. I didn't mean his physical being i meant his heart. Maybe he's cold inside and out. Probably not. I have no idea. I continue to scrub myself down, and i look down at my new metal. I feel a pouty lip form on my face and i almost want to cry. I look ugly now. I almost begin to cry when i hear the door open and Loki walk in. "Oh darling, i'm home." He teases. My body stiffens up. Crap i'm naked. My clean clothes are out there. I can't put back on my dirty clothes. I'll look even worse. And i can't stay in here forever. I finish washing the rest of my body and step out of the shower and dry off. I notice a clean button up shirt that belongs to Tony. He sets aside a shirt every morning in the bathroom and ends up never wearing it anyways. I put the shirt on, and thankfully its really big. It almost reaches my knees maybe a couple inches off. I still don't have any underwear though. I throw my clothes in the dirty hamper.

I slowly step out of the bathroom, and hear rustling of bags. I walk out slowly and see Loki pulling out lettuce out of a green grocery bag. Please don't look at me. Please don't look at me. And just as i turn the corner behind him into the kitchen he turns and sees me trying to sneak away. His eyes scan me up and down, and a playful smile comes to his lips. I feel a full blush rise in my cheeks. "Green really does look marvelous on you." His eyes work their way back down and up my body for a second glance. 

"Stop looking at me." i try to sound more commanding but it comes out small, and weak. I continue my way awkwardly to Tony's room and grab my black undies and a pair of shorts and throw them on quickly. I brush my hair out and let it rest on my shoulders. I recollect my scattered thoughts and quietly return back to the kitchen. Loki's cutting some vegetables up. 

"Are you hungry?" he asks. Without looking back at me. I was so quiet to, how did he know i was back in here? I sit at the table. 

"I could never imagine you to be able to cook." I say.

His eyes look up at me while he still continues to work, "Why wouldn't i be able to cook?" His voice almost sounds playful. 

"I don't know, you're a god. I didn't even think you ate." 

He laughs a tiny laugh and takes the vegetables and puts them on the stove. "I'll have you know, us gods eat probably more than we should."

"What do you mean? You're body looks fine." His eyebrow raises at me again, and i feel a blush kick in again. "I mean you look fit." I whisper.
