The next day Anna's head was throbbing as she sat in bed trying to remember what had happened after that second drink.
She got out of bed feeling slightly nauseous but not enough to throw up.
She wished she could though because then she would feel slightly better.
She walked to the washroom in Loki's room and washed her face with ice-cold water to help her headache.
She then looked at herself.
She looked like a mess but didn't she always?
She then noticed a purple mark on her neck.
She must have fallen last night.
She walked to her collection of clothes before sitting down as the room started to spin.
She took a deep breath before calling for one of the guards who always stood outside the room.
One rushed in.
"Please fetch a healer," she said.
"Right away," he said before rushing away.
She massaged her temples knowing that she would never touch a cup of wine again after this.
When the guard came back she managed to bring a chair outside on the balcony.
The healer gave her a herbal liquid to help the hangover before leaving Anna.
She cuddled up in the chair wishing Loki was here with her.
Suddenly he walked into the room with tea.
Maybe he read her mind.
"Loki" she called for him.
He walked to her with a cup of tea.
"I'm sorry.
Thor, he just kept giving me more cups.
He said it was a celebration.
I don't think he realised that I'm not like you all" she said as the potion took effect.
"Just drink this," he said.
He took the tea.
"Are you ok?" she asked.
"Yes and don't apologise.
I should have been there" he said.
She smiled "Where were you?' she asked with true curiosity.
"I was crafting something and lost track of time," he said.
"That's ok.
You don't have to be around me all the time.
We'll get sick of each other that way" she said.
"Never will I get tired of you.
I hope the same for you" he said.
"I like having you around," she said.
"Do you remember anything?" he asked knowing all too well that she didn't.
"No.
Why?
What did I do?" She asked.
"You called me beautiful last night," he said as he remembered kissing her, leaving marks on her neck that were darker today and most of all feeling her body against him.
The sounds she made.
He hated that he lost control but at the same time couldn't seem to regret it.
"Oh, gods.
I'm sorry" she said as she hid her face in her hands.
"Don't apologize" he said.
She looked at him.
"Sit down with me". she said.
He used his power to create a chair next to hers.
"Thia tea is nice.
Thank you for bringing it to me" she said.
"I always do.
It helps with energy and with that your power" he said.
'I think I have control over it now.
I haven't used it but I feel like if I wanted to I could" she said.
He nodded "That was the goal.
To have you have full control over you're beautiful power" he said.
She smiled.
"This is nice.
I love the view" she said as she looked over at him.
"It's strange.
Besides the killer hangover, I felt incredible as well.
I look horrible but I'm weirdly glowing.
If that's because of my power I will welcome it" she said.
He closed his eyes and looked away.
He hated it.
Loki knew it would be the worst idea he had ever had but he let her break him and it felt incredible.
