Between Brothers (Thor Love Story)

Chapter Eleven: Catching Up

I am a horrible author! How long has it been? A year? I did not want to become one of those authors, but I did! I'm so sorry! Okay, so I know this chapter might be bad. It's really more of a filler. There's more awesomeness to come! Thank you for reading my story! Bye bye my lovelies!

I walked over to where my siblings were. They were sitting and talking with all of the people there, including one particular tall blondie...

I snuck up behind him, signaling to everyone to ignore me. They did, and after I was directly behind him, I yelled, "BILGE-SNIPE!"

He jumped very high and shouted, "WHERE? WHERE IS THAT WRETCHED BILGE-SNIPE?" I doubled over laughing. When he saw who it was, he crushed me in a hug. Then crashed his lips into mine. Man, I missed this! I'm not immune anymore! I don't think I ever was, though.

When we pulled apart to breath, I noticed everyone had gone quiet. Brayden had Artie's eyes covered, and he was just staring at us wide eyed. I felt myself starting to blush.

"Um... HI! I like pie!" I exclaimed. Everyone looked at me funny. "What? Can't a girl say she likes pie? Weirdos."

Thor chuckled and held me closer. Mmmmm... What? Oh, I see that look. That's the "oh wow she's such a weirdo" look. Well, I haven't seen my boyfriend in like three months! Don't judge.

I finally looked around at the people surrounding us. There was Tony, Stephanie, Agent Romanoff, and some other people I didn't know. I saw Megan talking with a cute tall guy over in the corner. She was head over heels for him, and I could tell he felt the same, but they were both so oblivious. It made me smile to think about it.

She saw me and waved me over. I pulled Thor over and started to talk to her and the guy.

"So, Sam, this is my boyfriend, Steve. Steve, this is the famous Samantha Morgan!" She smiled at Steve and leaned into him. He smiled back at her and shook my hand.

"It's very nice to meet you, ma'am. Captain Steve Rogers, at your service," he said politely.

A light suddenly went off in my mind. "Ohmygosh! You're Captain America! I'm a huge fan!" He smiled at me, and then at Megan. Oh, he's got it bad. I guess I do too, though. I mean, you don't agree to go to a different world with a guy you're not interested in.

"I'm sorry, but this is probably going to sound kind of insensitive. What was it like to find out you were frozen for seventy years?" I asked.

"It's fine, I get asked that a lot. I have to admit, it was a bit of a culture shock. Everything was so confusing, but my Megan helped me get used to everything," Steve said, kissing the top of Megan's head. I sighed and leaned into Thor even more. He also kissed the top of my head and rubbed my arm. Mm, I could get used to this.

Steve was about to say something else, but then he frowned and looked at something behind me. I turned around and groaned when I saw Nick Fury walking up to us. I'm pretty sure he did not have good news.

He nodded to Steve and Megan and then motioned for me to follow him. I did so unwillingly. "What," I said snidely.

Fury sighed, "I'm sorry Sam, but the board wants to talk to you again. They want to keep trying to convince you to get to Loki. I told them that you were not ready, but they're insisting. Again, I'm sorry, but you're going to have to come back into the room with me."

"Look, I already told them I'm not going back in there. I don't like them, even though I've only been with them for a few minutes. I'm going to go back and talk to everyone, okay? Buh-bye," I said and started to walk away.

Fury grabbed my arm and stated, "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to bring you back in." I wrenched my arm out his grasp and kicked him in the leg. He cursed and started rubbing his leg. While he did that, I walked back to the others.

"Hey guys! How about we continue this back at my apartment? I think it would be more comfortable back there! So, let's go!"

BACK AT THE APARTMENT

After three months, I was walking into my apartment again. I felt a little anxious, and wondered what changed while I was gone. Thor gave me a reassuring squeeze, and I steeled my nerves and opened the door.

I let out a sigh of relief. Everything was the same. But it looked really, really dusty. I walked over to the fridge, wondering if the food in it had spoiled or not. When I opened it, I was greeted by the sight of... Nothing. Not even a smell.

I guess I kind of froze there for a while, because Thor kept tapping me. I unfroze and checked the freezer. Nothing again. I checked all the pantries too. No food. Anywhere. I think I died for a little bit.

I turned to Thor, Stephanie, Artemis, and Brayden and said angrily calm, "Where. Is. All. Of. My. Food?" I take my food very seriously.

Stephanie cleared her throat and quickly said, "Well, after the first few weeks you were gone, the food spoiled, so I threw it out and forgot to buy more. But," she added, "I do have all of your favorite snacks at my house. So I can head there, grab the food, and come back here quickly. Okay?"

I nodded. "Better. Now, while you go and do that, Bray and Artie, tell me what happened these past three months." Brayden and Artemis started talking all at once, so I only heard snippets of what they were saying.
"We stayed at Aunt Stephanie's-"
"I rode a pony!"
"Pool party-"
"I'm hungry!"
"Potatoes invaded the house!"

I shushed them quickly. "One at a time! Wait a second. Brayden, did you say potatoes invaded the house?"

Brayden nodded. "It was Tony's fault! He kept experimenting with the potatoes, and he made all our potatoes come to life! Only they were evil and tried to kill us!"

I glared at Stark. What an awful way to waste potatoes!

He held his hands up defensively, obviously trying to keep the blame away. "Hey! You never know when you'll need a potato army!"

I rolled my eyes and punched him in the arm. He yelled and scowled at me. I just laughed.

Man, it was good to be home!
