Ch.14 hammer time

"Thor." She spoke up, but he didn't stop. "Thor, we need to get to the observatory. Is there anything you can take with you to eat so we can go?" She asked.

"I've only returned to the buffet once." Thor noted looking over to her.

"I know, and I know I promised, but we're going to be late....well technically we already are late." She explained.

"I do not wish for you to ignore your responsibilities, we will go." Thor said with a nod, "Will there be a chance of our return to the great dining hall?" Thor questioned as he stood up.

"Course everyday probably." Jane laughed as she too stood up and grabbed one of Thor's trays.

"Wonderful, I am looking forward to it." Thor declared with a smile as Jane lead him to the tray drop off. They made their way out of the cafeteria building. Thor, now with more confidence grabbed Jane's hand as she passed him, he having been holding the door for her. She smiled up at him, keeping ahold of his hand as they walked to the bus stop.

"It'll only be a few minutes, and then we'll be at the observatory." Jane explained, there was no room on the bench so they stayed standing up.

"What are we waiting for?" Thor asked curiously.

"The bus...like a car, but bigger." She explained with a nod that Thor returned understanding.

There was a group of three girls sitting on the bus stop bench, one had noticed Thor and had apparently pointed him out to her friends. Jane looked over noticing a couple of the girls giggling while the third looked up at Thor, biting her lip. Jane looked back at the God who was staring up at a nearby tree where a squirrel had perched itself to look back down at him. She laughed lightly before wrapping her arm around his, catching his attention. He looked down at her, kissing her head, causing her to smirk just at the mere thought of the girls on the park bench's faces.

Jane had never been one of the girls that had the others envious of her. The quarterback had over looked her, and most of the boys at her old high school didn't pay her any mind. Yet, here she was, with the universe's version of the perfect quarterback. And here she was never thinking that had even been her type.

The bus arrived, and they ended up only getting a few stares as Thor weighted one end of the bus down. They moved until it wasn't so obvious, and Thor still ended up having to stand having to hold onto the pole in the middle of the aisle while Jane sat down in the seat nearest him. She spent most of the ride looking out the window like she often did, her attention only veering when she felt a gentle tug on her hair.

She turned her head slightly and spotted Thor with his head tilted slightly as if he was reading the ads on the ceiling across from him. His hand was hanging casually beside him, but his fingers were stretching out to brush through her hair. Jane laughed lightly and then reached up, taking his hand. He looked down at her, caught off guard by the contact and then smiled in return.

They got off at the bus stop nearest the observatory, the bus creaking again as they got off. Their hands stayed together as they started up the hill to the white building on the mountain side. Jane brushed her hair behind her ear, crossing her free arm over her chest against the wind rolling down the hill as they walked. Thor must of noticed, he let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her shoulders to pull her close to him for the rest of the hike.

Thor opened the door for her, Jane finally moving out from under his arm to walk to the main desk. Cheeks pink from not just the wind she smiled at the desk clerk who was eyeing Thor as he strolled to the desk. "Um...we need a visitor pass for him." Jane said with a small smile.

"Name?" The woman questioned reaching into the desk drawer.

"Thor." Jane said simply, Thor adding a smile for effect. The woman gave her a suspicious look but wrote his name on a pass and handed it to her. "Thanks." Jane smiled and then turned, clipping the name tag onto the end of his shirt. "Okay, let's go." She said, grabbing his hand and leading him down the hall where they had first saw each other the previous day.

Jane's lab wasn't the biggest, but she had it to herself so that was enough for her. The walls were plain white, her desk against one wall, a counter table-top along the other and the third with bookshelves stuffed passed capacity. She settled Thor in the desk chair against the table who didn't look too happy about the situation.

"It'll only be a few hours, I swear. We'll have lunch, a couple hours and then Darcy'll bring us dinner, then we can go home. Tomorrow we're free to spend the entire day out of lab." Jane assured him, kissing his temple now that they were finally in a position that he was below her. Thor looked up at her, wrapping his arm around her legs and pulling her between his knees.

"You are happy here?" Thor asked.

"Yeah, I love it here." Jane smiled, her hands moving to his shoulders. "I have way better equipment than I had in New Mexico and the sky here is beautiful."

"I wish to see you work, and you are happy so I will be happy as well." Thor explained with a nod.

"Alright." Jane laughed lightly, "I promise to try and get done early." She assured him, attempting to ignore his hand's firm grip on the back of her thigh. "Here." She said reaching over and grabbing the iPod Darcy had brought him, "Try this out." She said putting the headphones over his head and handing it to him, "Try not to break it, you'll waste time trying to figure it out." She told him, only receiving a nod in reply. She laughed, kissing his forehead and then finally moving out of his grip to walk back to her desk.

It was silent.

It was silent for a whole ten minutes before Jane heard a terrible grinding noise. She thought it could possibly be the lab next door, but it didn't stop and it was getting closer. She finally looked back over her shoulder to find Thor slowly pushing himself backwards in the desk chair across the room, an amused smile on his lips. His weight wouldn't allow him much speed because he weighed the wheels down but he seemed happy enough, still wearing the headphones. Jane smiled and then went back to work.

"Jane!" Thor shouted almost half an hour later. He had stood up, making his way over to her desk, he leaned on his forearms and looked up at her grinning, "This Midgardian music is wonderful!" He said loud enough she was sure they'd hear his echo through the building. Jane laughed and reached out, pulling the headphones off his head.

"You got it to work?" She asked, hearing the music from the headphones around his neck.

"Yes! I saw my name and hit this control button." He explained, now in a normal volume of speech; well, normal for him.

"Oh, she made you a playlist." Jane laughed, taking the iPod from him to look, "Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Thunderstruck, M.C. Hammer, Hammer to Fall....yeah Darcy made you a playlist." Jane laughed.

"STOP!" Thor shouted suddenly causing Jane to jump and look at him curiously. "Hammer time." He smiled and pulled the headphones back over his ears, grinning; this causing Jane to burst out into laughter as Thor made his way back to his chair.
