Who am I? (A Sequel to 'Who are You?' A Loki love story)

Chapter Thirty Nine - First Dance

        After the wedding, we had pictures for  almost two hours before the reception. I didn't think it would take that long, but the pictures were important. We smiled, laughed, and kissed our way through the pictures, and we made sure to get everyone involved in one large group picture. Finally, we head to where the reception was being held.

        During the dinner, Loki did nothing but cause mischief, though when he did it to Nat, I need to give her credit. He made it look like her steak had turned into a rotting hand, and she just stared at it for a few seconds, looked over at him, narrowed her eyes, and took a huge bite without hesitation, not taking her eyes off him.

        He was smiling more than I had ever seen him, and I couldn't help but smile right back. I couldn't even stay mad for more than a few seconds at him when he did that, but I did make him stop. He was going to give someone a heart attack, I swear.

        "Now it is time for the couple's first dance." The DJ says through the mic.  Loki slowly stands up, smiling down at me, and offers me his hand. I can't help but laugh as I take it, standing as well. The first dance song was something Loki picked, declaring that I could do anything else, but that he had the perfect song for us. In all honesty, I had tried to find out what it was multiple times, but he figured it out every time.

        My hand settled on his shoulder, and his hand drifted to my hip, taking my hand in his. The first few notes came out, and I was slightly surprised by the guitar.  

        'You're the falling star, you're the getaway car'
        'You're the line in the sand when I go to far'
        'You're the swimming pool, on an August day'
        'And you're the perfect thing to say.'

        Loki spins me around in a wide circle, the skirt of my wedding dress swirling around my feet. He does his trade mark smirk, but can't keep it up for long when I giggle at it.

        'And you play it coy but it's kind of cute'
        'Ah, when you smile at me you know exactly what you do'
        'Baby don't pretend you don't know it's true'
        ''cause when you can see it when I look at you'
       

        The only thing I can focus on is this moment. The way our bodies move, the way his green eyes are sparkling, the way the music swirling around us is perfect. I could live in this moment forever and never be anything but purely happy in the best of ways.

        'And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times'
        'It's you, It's you, you make me sing'
        'You're every line, you're every word, you're everything'

        Loki sings the chorus softly in my ear, making me blush. He continues to sing along to the song as it continues, and I rest my head on his shoulder, letting him slowly spin us around.

        'You're a carousel, you're a wishing well'
        'And you light me up, when you ring my bell'
        'You're a mystery, you're from outer space'
        'You're every minute of my everyday'

        I poke him in the ribs when he sang about outer space, and he chuckled, his warm breath tickling my neck.

        'And I can't believe, uh that I'm you're man'
        'And I get to kiss you baby just because I can'
    

        He kisses me for a split second, his lips brushing mine softly.

        'And you know that's what our love can do'
       
        'And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times'
        'It's you, It's you, you make me sing'
        'You're every line, you're every word, you're everything'

        The singer begins to sing a few 'la, la, la's' , and Loki dipped me down, making me gasp with surprise. He lifts me back to my feet, and the blood rushes from my head as he takes me back into his arms for the final chorus.

        'And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times'
        'It's you, It's you, you make me sing'
        'You're every line, you're every word, you're everything'
        'You're every song, and I sing along'
        ''Cause you're my everything.'

        The music fades out, and Loki kisses me again as the song ends. The next song begins, and we continue dancing as people make their way onto the dance floor with us. After a little while, Loki and I went over to cut the cake. He carefully put the piece he had in my mouth, and I unceremoniously shoved my piece in face, smearing the icing all over. He got revenge by kissing me, getting the icing on his face all over mine as well.

        The rest of the night was full of dancing and laughing and I couldn't help but think,
       

        My life, with all of it's ups and downs, the ins and outs..... It was perfect.
