"So, how do you know Thor?" Selvig asked as Jane placed plates of eggs before us. I looked to the man in question, an eyebrow raised, as he took the seat next to me.
"I don't know, how do I know you, Thor?"
The man sighed, taking a long sip of his black coffee before speaking. "I owe you an explanation, Bryn," he said softly. "But now is not the time or place."
I pushed away my plate angrily. "When will it be, then? Never? I'm done with waiting."
Thor sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I am not the one who should be telling you this," he explained. "I know little more than you do of the situation."
"You know who my father is," I shot back. "You know plenty."
"Very well." Thor sat back, everyone's eyes on him. He was about to begin speaking when there was a loud tapping on the glass door. Outside stood four peculiarly dressed people, smiling and waving a Thor.
"My friends!" Thor stood from the table and let them in, Selvig, Darcy, Jane, and I watching with wide eyes. He embraced them each in turn, beaming.
"I don't believe it," Selvig muttered.
"Oh excuse me." The largest of the four companions stepped forward. "Lady Sif and the Warriors Three."
"My friends," Thor began, "I have never been happier to see anyone." His eyes shifted back towards me for a brief moment before he returned his attention to the four warriors. "But you should not have come."
The four looked flustered. "We're here to take you home," the blond one said indignantly.
"You know I cannot go home," Thor said sadly. "My father is dead because of me. I must remain in exile."
I stepped forward and took his hand.
"Thor," said the woman, Sif. "Your father still lives."
His eyes fell to me for a second time. He squeezed my hand gently before meeting the eyes of his friends. "Why would he lie?" Thor asked, his voice soft. Then, he shook his head, as if clearing the thoughts from his mind. "Never mind that," he announced. "Bryn, how would you like to visit Asgard?"
Hey guys, I know this was a really short chapter and I'm sorry for that. Also, I apologize for taking so long to update. School ends in about two weeks, so I should be able to find more time to write this summer. I just saw Infinity War, so I'm definitely inspired to catch back up to the MCU timeline. If you want to talk about the movie, feel free to pm me.
