Bittersweet *Currently On Temporary Hold*

Chapter 21: How Would You Fancy A Trip?

Hey y'all! Okay, I've got two things.
1. I'm so sorry that I've been lazy with the updates! Schools just started and my life's been pretty hectic lately. I hope y'all understand! I still love all of you, I promise!
2. What would you guys think about a smut chapter? Not necessarily next chapter, but maybe a bit down the line? I don't know. I'm still planning. Feel free to comment your opinion!
All the Loves!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You were surprised when Loki confessed his love for you to say the least. When he did though, the words rolled off your tongue with no restraint. It almost surprised you.

From behind the doorway, Thor listened to the two of you and his heart was warmed. He was elated that you didn't judge for what Loki couldn't control. You didn't turn him away, and you didn't scare at what he was. You just accepted him on the dot. It was amazing.

Thor gave the two of you a moment before looking into the room.

He was met with the two just staring at each other in an ice layered room. Loki was still blue and (Y/N) looked shocked, yet somehow happy.

"I love you too." Was what he heard from you. He was a goner. He was too happy for words and he wanted to say something, but he decided it was best to not.

Loki stared at you in wonder.

"How?"

"Does it really matter?"

The thoughts took less than a fraction of a second to register and Loki took them to heart. It didn't matter so much as to why you loved him. It matters more that you did.

Then, before either of them knew what they were doing, their lips met and sparks flew. Fireworks went off in their hearts and sent delight coursing through their veins.

You reveled in the feeling of Loki's soft, cool lips on your own as he wrapped his arms around you once more, finally destroying any fear of judgement.

From the doorway, Thor was about to explode because he was too happy and exhilarated to stand still. Instead of destroying your moment, he decided to go pace in the living room until you emerged.

You both broke the kiss when you heard heavy footsteps through the wall. You knew they were Thor's. He had taken you home and opened the door for you so you could get into Loki's room. You weren't exactly surprised to hear Thor pacing. You had taken a while and Thor's not necessarily impatient, he just has a bunch of energy. Standing around isn't his thing.

Before you could get up and address Thor to thank him for taking you home, Loki tightened his grip on you.

"(Y/N), are-are we a couple now?" Loki asked as he looked straight into your eyes. Finally there was no sense of fear in his ruby eyes save for what came with the question.

"Yes Loki. I believe we are if you want to be." You answer smiling. You were elated to know that he loved you back and your heart swelled.

"You have no clue how much I want that (Y/N)." Loki replied, placing his forehead on yours.

"Then we're a couple." You simply say back to him with a sweetened smile.

Loki started to lean in once more, but he was stopped when you spoke. Yes you definitely wanted to kiss him again. You never wanted to stop kissing him, but Thor was waiting for you in the living room and you didn't really want to keep him waiting for too long. You felt so bad.

"Loki, as much as I'd love to kiss you again, Thor is in the living room pacing up a storm."

"Why is he still here?" Loki asked as he let you get up and he in return stood, letting his skin change back to its peachy color.

"I needed to give him something." You respond running for your room and grabbing something from it.

When you returned, Loki was still in his room regrettably watching the ice thaw.

"Come on buddy. I've got to get this to Thor," you say holding up a rolled up piece of paper, "And we've got to figure out a way to defrost your room."

Loki said nothing but followed you to the living room, grabbing your hand gently and lacing his fingers with yours.

When you entered the living room you were met with Thor still pacing in front of the TV. He only stopped when he noticed the two of you and your joined hands.

"Hello (Y/N). Are you doing alright for now?" Thor asked being cautious about the bandages that were still all over your arms, legs, and abdomen.

"Yep. I'm doing just fine. Here's this by the way." You say as you hand Thor the rolled up paper. He unrolled it to show a lifelike pencil-drawn portrait of Jane.

"This is amazing (Y/N). Thank you." Thor stated gratefully as he pulled you into a gentle hug.

"Anything for a friend." You say nonchalantly. You gladly returned the hug to the best of your abilities, "Do you need a frame?"

"I think I'm good. I have a frame at home. The real question is whether you two will fair well while I'm away?" Thor asked cheekily, smirking at you and Loki's hands that had been rejoined after Thor let you go.

"I think we will." You answered, looking up to Loki. You both nodded to Thor. You wrapped a wing around Loki's waist and he smiled down at you.

The thunder nodded to you and was about to head for the door, but Loki stopped him before he could reach for the doorknob.

"Thor, can I speak with you for a second?" Loki asked, walking over to his brother.

Loki brought Thor back into the kitchen. You curiously tried to listen but it was all for naught. You couldn't hear a thing. That is until Thor yelled a very excited 'YES!' And then you were just confused.

The two emerged from the kitchen a few seconds later to find you in your favorite armchair, reading a copy of Dracula, your wings draped over the armrests as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

"(Y/N)?"

"Yes Loki?" You answer, marking your page with your finger and looking to him.

"How would you fancy a trip to Asgard?" Loki asked with the biggest and proudest smile you had seen from him.

Your eyes widened and you jumped up to hug him.

"Yes Loki! I'd love to visit Asgard!" You yell as Loki gently wrapped his arms around you while chucking at your excitement.

"Wonderful! We can't wait to show you around Asgard!" Thor said as he joined the hug.

Loki, you, and Thor stayed like that, hugging it out until your wings went numb.

"I know y'all probably love this whole hugging thing, but I can't feel my wings." You say, and the hug is broken, sadly, "So, when do we go to Asgard?"

"Whenever you want." Loki answered with a fond smile.
