Asgardian Angel

Chapter three. My parents

When the elevator doors opened I was greeted by a massive room with a boxing ring in one corner, open mats through out and a shooting range on one wall.

Thor was throwing knives at the targets set up. He was throwing them with such speed that I could only see his arms move and hear the thud the knives made when they came into contact with the target.

He was still wearing his uniform but he had taken off the cape and it was thrown over a chair in the corner. I glance down at my watch and see it is only 9:23. I was asleep for two hours.

I bump into the knife table while I was watching him and knock a knife on the floor. He turns and looks at me with a concerned expression.

"What?" I asked.

"Are you all right, lady Jordan?" he asked not answering my question.

"Yea the doctor said I'll be fine." He turned back to the wall and continued to throw.

"Um, Thor? I wanted to thank you for getting me out of that explosion." I said.

"It was only to save the life of my friend." he said. I looked down at my shoes. Is what all I was to him? A friend? I turned and walked to the elevator. I pressed the call button and waited.

When the elevator came down Tony stepped out and nodded a hello to me and walked over to Thor. I got on and rode back to my room.

Thor's POV

She said thank you and I gave a response. then she took off without another word. Did I say the wrong thing? I guess I wasn't used to someone thanking me for saving them.

Tony walked up to me and started talking, "You know that she likes you right?" he asked.

I looked over and raised my eyebrow at him. "Really?"

"You crushed her when you called her a friend. She wants to be much more. But you didn't hear it from me." Tony replied to my question.

"I did not think she was that fond of me.".

Tony rolled his eyes and left.

Jordan's POV

When I got to my room I found Kelly and Steve in the couch watching Supernatural. I didn't want to bother them so I walked to my room and took a shower. After I put sweats and an oversized t-shirt on and brushed out my wet hair.

Kelly called me into the kitchen saying someone dropped off a note for me.

Jordan,

I am sorry for the way I acted towards you earlier. I was hoping you would come to a dinner with me on the roof. I want to make it up to you. Be there at 8:00.

Thor.

I looked at Kelly and pulled her into my room to figure out what to wear. I settled on a black dress with a floral design on it and black flats. I dried my hair and left it down, then applied a light amount of eye shadow and mascara. I ran to the living room and grabbed my phone. I looked at my clock, 7:45. I was right on time.

I walked to the elevator and pressed the R button for the roof. I made it there at exactly eight. The sight of Thor sitting on the blankets and pillows made my heart flutter. I walked over to him and sat down on the soft blanket.

"What are we doing on the roof?" I asked him.

"I thought you would like the sight of stars."

"Ok I like it. Very pretty." I complimented. He pulled out a basket and placed fruit on a plate then in front of me. We started to talk until it got dark out. It slowly got colder and colder. I started to shiver and Thor noticed. He took off his jacket, revealing a tight t-shirt, and handed it to me.

"Thanks." I said taking the jacket and sliding my arms through it. Wow it smelled so good, not like any cologne I've smelled before.

He liked stories about his parents and Loki, his brother. He asked about mine and I froze.

"What is wrong, Miss Jordan?" he asked.

"My parents were killed eight years ago. They were SHIELD agents and were on a mission. I was 12 when it happened. I was told they were killed on impact when they drove off rode and into a lake. When I went to identify the bodies I was shaking so hard. When I saw who it was I collapsed and was asleep for a week. I didnt get over it for a long time, and I wouldn't talk to anyone on my parents birthday or anniversary. It brings too many painful memories back. I have no one, except Steve, a-and Kelly." I finally opened up to him. He was the first to know the whole truth.

"Steve?" he asked.

"Yea he took me in when they died. Protected me and acted as a brother ." Suddenly he pulled me against him in a sweet hug. I got tears in my eyes and pulled away to stop. Thor put one hand under my chin and made me look at him. He wiped my tears away with his thumbs. He looked into my eyes as if looking for anything to tell him I would cry again. I almost broke the silence when his lips met mine.

I froze under his hands but then melted into his arms. I kissed him back. His lips were soft and warm under mine. I felt my heart pick up and the blood rush to my face in a blush. I had to pull away gasping for air, but he didn't let me farther than a few inches away from him. I laid my head on his chest and listened to his heart beat as fast as mine did.

"Now you have more than Steve who cares for you." he whispered. He leaned back so he was laying on his back and me laying with my head on his arm. I started to nod off and soon we both asleep in each others arms.
