My greatest hero

chapter 54

Eira was out in the training arena trying to find something to occupy her time, it seemed so strange to not have to deal with Embrey anymore, and she needed something to do. It was cold out and her hands were becoming stiff and achy, she also had to talk to Afya about something, so she decided to go in and get out of her armor.
"Hello love" loki said coming up behind her and pecking her on her neck.
"Hello" she said back, while turning around.
"Are you okay?" He said putting his hand on her face "you look like you've been crying" he continued, she smiled.
"I was outside fighting Brynjar, it's just cold" she told him. "But I need to talk to Afya about something" she said almost to herself.
"Is something wrong?" He asked concerned.
"No, I'm sure it's nothing, I just want to check" she said, he nodded.
"Alright, don't be sick" he said with a smirk, letting her walk to find Afya. Just then Brynjar came in with several cuts and bruises on his face, he and loki never got along, he always rubbed loki the wrong way, mainly because he was rather mean when they were younger, and only grew to be a disrespectful jerk.
"I see you've been fighting" loki said, trying to hold back laughter.
"Well I was very unevenly matched" he sad defensively, not knowing loki knew who he was fighting.
"Ah yes, my little wife puts up quite a nasty fight" loki said with a smirk, knowing he was only fighting Eira.
"Where is your wife, you always seem to have her around you?" Brynjar said, trying to shift the subject.
"I don't always have her around me" loki said feeling defensive.
"Yes you do. I think you just married her so you could always be looking at her" Brynjar said back in an annoying tone, and loki thought he was going a little to far.
"I married her because I happen to think she's a very wonderful young lady" Loki snapped back, loosing his temper.
" hey, no need to get upset, I can see why you would want her to be around all the time, I wish I had one" he said with a smirk and tone that loki was starting to find annoying.
"That's my wife you're talking about, not something you buy from a trader" he said a bit more loudly.
"Same difference" he said, laughing at how angry loki was getting. Loki couldn't believe he could be so disrespectful toward Eira, talking about her as if she's just a product, and Before anyone could say anything else, loki knocked Brynjar across his face with his fist.
"Don't you dare ever speak that way again!" Loki shouted at him.
"Oh look who's mister honorable-young-man now, less than three years ago you were in prison for murdering the humans" Brynjar spat back, Loki's rage was now boiling inside, he was just about to start a fight when he heard Thor from behind him.
"Don't speak that way to, or about him again, what loki did in the last is just that; the past" Thor said, his voice loud and deep, Brynjar backed off, not wanting to deal with both of them at once. He left leaving loki to burn with anger.
"He's just tormenting you, like he always has" Thor told loki, trying to calm him down. Just then they heard Eira call Loki's name, she ran right over to him, threw her arms around. His neck, and locked her lips with his. After a moment of her passionately kissing him, she dragged him to their chambers, laughing and smiling all the way.
"Eira, what is going on with you?" He asked, not being able to help smiling.
"Loki, I'm so excited, and happy, but I really don't know what to feel, and I just hope you're as happy as I am" she said, trying to calm down.
"Well tell me and we can both be happy" he said, her smile grew brighter and she bit her bottom lip.
"I'm pregnant" she said feeling happy, but also slightly afraid Loki wouldn't share her excitement.
