Taken From Destiny

Chapter 12

Loki's POV

We went to the stables and I got on my black horse. Heather went to her stall and gasped.

"What?" I asked.

"It.. it's beautiful" she whispered. I smiled. We found her the most beautiful golden horse, well built.

"Do you have a name for him?" I asked. She thought for a moment.

"Gold-dust" she smiled.

"Very fitting," I agreed. "Now mount and let's go,"

"That's what she said," she laughed. I looked at her confused. "It's a migardian joke. Like, when people are 'doing it', mounting.. no?"

"Um no" I said. She sighed and rolled her eyes. "You can show me some time". She blushed and burst out laughing.

"You really don't understand what that means!" she said between fits of laughter. I chuckled and rode off. "Hey wait!" she was soon at my side. We rode through the city until lunch, for which I packed a picnic. We tied up our horses and sat on a blanket. I had a candle but no match. Heather snapped her fingers and it lit up.

"Hanging out with Brianna again I see," I smirked. She smiled and nodded. She kept looking up at me and laughing. "Still on that joke?"

"Yes," she giggled. "It was hilarious"

"How so?" I raised a brow at her. She blushed and looked down laughing.

"It was a sexual joke Loki," she smirked. "And you said I could show you" she could barely finish she was laughing so hard. I started blushing.

"You just think you're so funny," I laughed.

"Oh I know I'm funny," she smirked. I threw a grape at her and she caught it in her mouth.

"Talented mouth," I said. She started laughing again. "What now?!"

"That.... Was... so.... bad...." she laughed.

"Such an inappropriate mind for a princess" I scolded jokingly.

"Eh I'm just another Asgardian" she sighed. "Shall we get going?" I nodded as we mounted our horses.

"I'll race you," I challenged her.

"You're on!" she smirked. We took off at the same time and she had a slight lead. I tried pushing my horse faster but he couldn't go. We reached the final stretch to the stables and I saw heather flick her hand. My horse lifted off the ground and we were flying forward. I could hear her laughing ahead of me. We landed on the ground once again but heather was already at the stable. She waited for me and had a big smile on her face.

"What do I win?" she asked.

"You cheated!" I accused.

"Can you prove it?" she smirked.

"Well no but still I know you did," I sighed.

"What... do I win?" she asked again.

"What do you want?" I questioned. She struck a thinking pose.

"I want to wear your helmet for a day" she said. I sighed.

"Fine," I scowled. "Tomorrow."

"Tomorrow it is," she smiled and walked back to the palace. She had an unusual sway to her walk, she turned back and winked at me. Weirdo.
