Make It Right

Ch.24

(Sky's POV)

There I stood standing in Zach's room, just staring at him. He didn't speak. He sat at the end of his bed on a red cushioned chair, looking down. He propped his elbows on his thighs, and twittled with his thumbs. I knew this conversation wasn't going to be checked off my list as easy. He knew too.

"Zach," I started, my voice already trying to give way. "I'm unsure how to start this conversation but, um..."

"Do you love him?" Zach said abruptly. "I mean, really, love him, or is this just a ploy to get him to trust you till we can kill him? I mean look at what he's done Sky!" He was shouting now. "He doesn't love you. He's using you!!!"

"NO!" I screamed. "You're wrong. Loki does love me, and to answer your question. I.do.love.him. I just wasn't sure how to address this with you. You're so against him. Therefore I guess you're against me also. He's a great king, and an even better man. Just misunderstood. And if he's not at the top already, you can bet I'm going to see to it that he gets there!"

"What about me? What about Tom?" Zach looked so lost, so enraged, so confused. "Tom is fine Zach. He's doing his knew job. Loki's not gone back on his word, on the deal they made. He's got a brand new life and he's one hell of a friend, because unlike you he supports my decision."

Zach's eyes grew wide at that. "Yes, that's right Zach, Tom has known about us for quite a while now. As for you, you either will stand by me or not. Which will it be?"

He turned away from me and threw his palms up against the wall, chest heaving, as he searched to calm down and regain air. He slowly turned around with furrowed brows. A sinister look upon his face. This wasn't the happy, clowning around Zach I once knew better than the back of my hand.

"My decision is final...so listen closely to what I'm about to say." I nodded, my mouth gone dry, feeling like I'd ate nothing but loads of cotton balls. "I will not support you in this. Loki must be taken down, it's the only way. I hope you can understand. I didn't choose this life, and I'm sorry this whole thing has happened. I didn't choose for us to be kidnapped by a norse god, or brought to an unfamilar world. I don't even like the color gold!  We had a plan, we had eachothers back...once, but now you're in the way. You, Loki, and Tom. And you should know that I will stop at nothing to see Loki be brought down, or dead. And if you two stand in the way of that happening, you'll go right along with him. Sweet dreams my old friend, you're going to need it. Loki's time is coming to a close."

Now I was the one who couldn't breathe. I rushed out of the room. Grabbing out and holding myself up with every wall, trying to find my Loki. I had to inform him, the love my life, that I would fight for him, and beside him no matter what.

(Loki's POV)

"Loki, Loki!" I saw a sobbing Sky racing toward me, barely able to breathe correctly. She fell down, and I ran the rest of the way to hold her.

"Shh, what's wrong? I take it Zach didn't take kindly to our love" I smiled to myself. "He's just mad because I've stolen his best friend, but you're my best friend now. Finally someone to love me."

"No, Lo...Lo...Loki. I-I- need to tell you everything. When you first took me, Zach, and Tom, we had planned on trying to kill you after a certain amount of time. I made a mistake. I then started to understand you weren't  all bad, and not only fell inlove with you, but with your cause as well. I got to know the real you better, and Im glad I did. Tom and I have grown into our knew roles in life, Zach has...has...hasn't."

"Breathe Sky, what exactly do you mean?" I now stood up, pushing her slightly away. I wasn't sure how to feel. I guess I knew it was possible she'd wanted me dead, but hearing it hurt almost as much as me hating to be a frost giant.

"Zach's coming for you, for me, for Tom, but mostly you. I can't let him take you from me. I love you, I love you Loki! I will fight for you. Anything."

"It's alright love. I'm the king. I'm use to war. I've been around it my whole life. He won't win. Let's just try and enjoy our dinner, then we shall seek Tom."

After about two hours, I was able to get Sky to completely relax. As long as she was in my arms, she was fine. She'd barely let me get up without her. We made light conversation, yet still I was bothered that at one time she hated me so much she wanted me gone.

"Sky, why did you hate me? I never hurt you did I? Infact from the very beginning I'd thought you more beautiful than any woman in all the nine realms."

"I was scared Loki. Imagine if you were in that situation. I hadn't gotten to know the real you yet, and no, you were never bad to me, not like you were to Tom or Zach. Tom being the worst. That really scared me. Tom didn't deserve that. No one does."

"Still Sky, I can't help but think even in our new Zach mess, you three need to be punished. I mean what kind of king would I be if I just let you get away with that?"

"A GOOD ONE. YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!"

"I am...I think. -Don't worry love, it's not going to happen, I'm just upset for right now. I'll get over it soon. Let's just relax and focus on something more happy. Let's have a good night love.

"Until tomorrow."  I muttered softly under my breath.
