The next morning, I jolt awake, waking up Natasha in the process. She yawns as I pant "What's wrong, big guy?"

"Nothing." I insist, before clearing my throat "I'm going to go downstairs. Get some sleep, okay?"

She rolls over and turns on her light "Come on, stay up here with me. Tell me what going on." she insists.

With a sigh, I sit back in bed and declare "Just another Father Trudy, don't touch my booty, dream."

She rests her hand on my shoulder and asks "Do you want to talk about it?" I shake my head and she asks "Can I braid your hair?"

"Why?" I ask and she smiles, kindly.

At breakfast, Tony snickers "You look like a chick." I glare at him and he asks "How'd you manage to hide the bruise?"

"Concealer and foundation powder." I state and he gocks "I couldn't do it before, because it was swollen." Thor stares at my neck and I ask "Did I miss a spot?"

"No." he looks me over, before humming "First time I've seen your neck, normal." He smiles and I blush "So, does this bruise cover-up work for everything?"

I hum, before crossing my legs.

At the end of school, we park in Thor's driveway and climb out, as Natasha insists "Mom wants us home."

Banner nods "My mom wants me to go hang out with her."

Steve sighs "My old friend is in town. He wants to catch a film. I should get going. Stark, what are you doing?"

Stark looks at us, and I see Natasha give him a look. Finally, he announces "I've got to clean up my house. My uncle Jarvis is coming in tomorrow."

Thor shrugs "Okay, see you guys tomorrow." they climb into their cars and Thor looks to me "What do you wanna do? Watch a movie?"

I shrug as we walk up to the door "We should see if your mum needs help with anything, first."

He nods as he opens the door and announces "Mom, we're home!" when we get no response, his eye catches on the entry table. He picks up a note and reads out "Gone to catch dinner with Hela! Be home late! Don't wait up! Love, Frigga! P.S. Use a condom! Have fun!"

He places the note down as I gock "Yeah, I knew something was off. Everyone is trying to get you laid."

He shrugs "We don't have to." I sigh and he leans against the door "Let's just watch a movie."

I smile at him, before explaining "Once I'm all healed... yeah, sure." he nods and I start up the stairs and look back at him "Have you finish Fury's essay?"

"You mean the one he assigned today?" he asks and I nod "Of course not. Nobody has even started it yet."

"I have." I state and he scoffs "I've already turned it in." he snickers and I shrug "I finish it before class ended."

"Some of us care about our grades, Loki." he remarks as he walks into the kitchen.

I follow him and remark "And that's exactly why I'm at the top of our class with a 4.07 average." he closes the fridge and looks at me in utter disbelief.

"4.07?" he asks and I nod "You realize a 4.0 is 100 average, right?" I nod again and he asks "How?"

"Extra credit." I state, before explaining "If you're an faculty aid for more than two semesters, your GPA is bumped .05. I'm an office aid for four periods, technically."

"So, what will it be by graduation, then?" he asks and I think for a second "There's no possible way to figure that o-"

"4.18." I state and he raises his eyebrow to me "If you take into account the grade bump of .3, take into account the decrease, due to the fact that our French teacher never gives extra credit, and Fury always does. Also, the estimated amount of grades in each class, and the fact that I'm fluent in French and memorize everything, I'm looking at a final GPA of 4.18 and acceptance to any college I desire."

He furrows his brow and asks "What about ceramics?"

"Please." I gock, before explaining "Ceramics is far too easy to get anything above a 99."

He shrugs, before asking "Do you want some popcorn for the movie? We've got sweet and salty corn."

"And you're going to be doing your homework." I smirk and he sighs, before tossing a bag of popcorn in the microwave.

After a very long night of tutoring Thor in Pre Cal, we walk into the library during second period.

Natasha looks to us, before nudging me "Help me put a couple of books back on the shelf, will you?"

"Sure." I smile and take a few of the books. Upstairs, I replace the last book and she stops me.

"So, how was it?" she asks and I cock my eyebrow to her, questionably "Did you finally get that sweet release?"

I shake my head and furrow my brow, before declaring "We didn't have sex, Natasha. I just tutored him in Pre-Cal."

"Oh, so you have a teacher-student fetish?" she asks and I give an unamused look "You really didn't do anything?"

I shake my head and explain "I don't think we should have sex until I'm healed up, in a couple weeks."

She hums and we walk down the stairs. When we get down, Barton asks "When did you realize you were gay?"

"1998." I state and he gives the most confused look "I saw Marilyn Manson on MTV and it peeked my interest."

"Is that why you dress the way you do?" Barton asks and I shrug "Why did he peek your interest?"

I think for a second, before explaining "He was speaking about the feeling of being numb, and how it feels when that numbness slips away. Experiencing everything like it's the first time, like a baby. Suddenly having a sense of innocence." I shrug "And I felt like I wasn't alone in the middle of dealing with what happened to me, and handling my junky mum."

They're silent for a long while and I break the air "And I thought he was really hot." I give a weak smile and they gock.

I sigh, before continuing "I related to his sense of religion, and the way society works. As if I found someone who thinks the way I do."

Thor furrows his brow "You're a satanist?" I shake my head and he asks "Isn't Marilyn Manson?"

"He's atheist." I state and he hums, before I shrug "After a man of god, defiles you, you find it real hard to believe in a higher power."

"God save us from the people who think they're doing God's work." Natasha remarks and I scoff.

"What's happening in here?" Stark asks as he and Banner walk into the library and pointing between Thor and I "You two do ut yet?"

Thor and I shake our heads and Banner sighs "I think you probably have the worst case of blue balls, ever."

I scoff, before looking to Natasha and Barton "What does Steve have this period?"

Natasha furrows her brow, before turning towards her bag and pulling out a folder to get to copies of their schedules "Gym."

I snicker and she looks to me "Do you have your schedule? Can I make a copy?" I hand it over and she explains "One of us is always on office aid, so we can call the others out."

I hum "Makes for an easy senior year."
