"I, I was cornered. Th-they beat m-me up and I, I couldn't do a-anything about it." I sobbed. He calmly shushed me. "They, they call me crazy! Th-they say I'm a, a freak!" Tears ran down my face.

"They d-don't trust me! They h-hate me!"

He grabbed my shaking hands in his and gave me a small smile.

"They tell me that too."

"B-but your a, a p-prince. Th-they w-wouldn't dare, w-would they?" I sniffled. He gave me a small smile.

"They don't know they're insulting me." He paused. "Can you promise not to tell if I let you in on a secret?"

"I p-promise." I said, wiping my eyes. He nodded and pulled up his sleeve. Then he concentrated. I watched as his arm slowly turned blue.

"Y-your a frost, frost giant?" I whispered. He nodded and put his sleeve back down. His arm turned normal again. Then he looked confused.

"Are you not, afraid of me?" He asked me.

"Why would I be? We are who we chose to be, not what people think we are." I said smiling.

"Well, um, thank you." He looked taken aback by this. A confused look spread across his face. I laughed.

"Your welcome." I smiled. He smiled back.

"Loki?" A voice said from the entrance of the ally. Loki turned. It was a boy with long blonde hair.

"Yes Thor?" He asked the boy.

"What are you doing? One minute you were behind me, the next you were gone." He walked up to Loki.

"Just talking." Loki smiled. He stood up, facing his brother. "Brother, this is  Aoide."

"Hello, I'm Thor Odinson." He said as I stood. We shook hands.

"Pleasure to meet you." I smiled.

"Thor? What's going on?" A girls voice sounded from the entrance of the ally.

"Nothing Sif. I found Loki. He was chatting with his new friend." Thor turned and started leaving the ally. "You coming Loki?"

"In a minute." He said to his brother.

"Okay."

"Well, I guess I'll see you around." I smiled.

"Yeah. Just send me a raven if you want to talk or anything." He said. I smiled.

"Can do." I smiled. He turned and started to leave the ally.

"Bye Aoide!" He waved, grinning.

"Bye Loki!" I waved back, smiling.

Then I turned, sighed and walked towards home.
