Unchained memories: Loki x Sif (complete)

Chapter 8: dreaming of a dance

PLEASE DONT PLAY THE SONG YET! THANKS!

"How?!"

"It's a dream right? Well we can do whatever we want here, we can be as stupid and young as we wish, in fact, I rather liked that red dress you wore that night" he took her hand and raised it above her head, spinning her on the spot, until her casual wear transformed into that same red dress she wore the night they danced "beautiful" he eyed her from top to bottom.

"God I haven't worn a dress like this in a long time" she felt the silky material of the floaty dress, that dropped to her feet. Then almost spontaneously he began to remove the top half of his outfit "what are you doing?" He grinned and continued removing until he was left, in a thin shirt, leather trousers halfway up his ankles and bare footed, the shirt was surprising baggy on him, it was a grey thin shirt.

"If I remember correctly I did this in just my trousers"

"Did what?" She cackled, but her short laughter was stopped dead when his arms crossed and his hands grabbed the bottom of his shirt, beginning to pull it up over his head. Her head was all over the place with lust as his gorgeous body revealed itself, he was a bit more muscular than when they were young.

He had brief etchings of a six pack and he had biceps that weren't as evolved as Thor's but were defiantly visible "this is a dream, all a dream" she said to herself, frozen on the spot"

"Here I go" she put two hands over her mouth as he leaped into the fountain like he did so many years ago, she laughed behind her hands, waiting for him to resurface. When he did the sight of his dripping body made her heart beat faster. Next he mercilessly ran his long fingers through his dark hair, combing it back to the way it was before he jumped in, her heart beat faster until she could feel it trying to rip it's way out of her chest.

He held his arms open, beckoning her to jump in with him "no! No way am I jumping in there"

"Don't tell me Lady Sif is becoming a lady? 'The most fearless female warrior' afraid of the fountain?"

She rolled her eyes into the back of her head then tilted it backwards, taking a deep breath, she rolled her neck back to look at him then shook her head, as if telling herself she was going to regret it, her body hurled forward and ran at the fountain, leaping when she got close enough. She had expected to land on her feet as the fountain water was shallow, but her whole body went under.

"That was deeper than I expected" she said as her head bopped above the water.

"Stand up"

She obeyed, as she stood the water came to her ankles "what!"

"Hey, it's a dream"

"Right" they were now standing face to face, Sif's dress drenched from the water and her hair falling out of the pinned back 'party' style it had changed to when the dress appeared.

The dress clung to her every curve and made her feel uncomfortable as the material stuck to her "Dance with me?"

"Here? Now?"

"No tomorrow, of course now"

"In the fountain?"

"Yes"

"Really?"

"Oh for god sake! Do you want to dance or not?" She took his hand and pulled her to him, despite him being shirtless. Sif looked into his eyes grinning, he grinned back and from all around them...

PLAY SONG NOW PLEASE (I know I'm kind of bossy but I do this for the best effect I promise, so you can really picture it like you're there kind if thing) THANK YOU!

... Music started to play, not just any music, it was unchained melody. It seemed to be their song now and she loved the sound of it when she was with him, like there was nothing else in the world.

They began to dance like before, his hand on her waist, hers on his shoulder, it was like ballroom dancing only in the small space of a fountain, he guided her around the fountain and she allowed him, it was slow dancing the water beneath them splashed perfectly.

Their surroundings darkened again and the gardens were gone, the small space of the fountain had disappeared but the water was still very much there, the water expanded to no end and it seemed to be raining upon them, but they kept dancing. Kicking the water in movement of the dance, then Sif stopped, running her hands down the sides of his face, feeling his cheekbones and his jawbone as he ran his hands up her arm, trailing to her hands.

Loki grabbed her small hand and spun her like a spinning top in the water, despite it being heavy with water, the dress still made a perfect circle around her and the water began to spritz off the edges of the dress, like she was now the fountain. It was perfect and spontaneous dancing, that was quicker paced and intimate.

Romantic steps and swaying, the water their dance floor, still coming up to only their ankles, the rain poured down and the darkness was all over once more, a single spotlight on them, they could have danced for the rest of their lives.

Loki lifted her, holding her waist and as she slid through his hands slowly, he eyes never detaching from his, she continued to slip down with her arms in the air, until she touched the ground, the music faded away...

SONG SHOULD BE FINISHED BY NOW, DEPENDS HOW FAST YOU READ.

... "I expect that means you're waking up"

Her arms dropped back down to her side and she put one hand on each of Loki's shoulders, which were now somehow wearing his dark grey shirt again "I don't want to wake up" He smiled like he was sorry, she shook her head and tears came to her eyes "what a crap dream look I'm crying" she tried to pretend to laugh but she was too scared of leaving this wonderful dream, then she realised she may never see him again without a barrier between them.

So before she woke up she grabbed Loki's head and gently pulled her to him, locking her lips with his, this time she wouldn't pull away, their tongues entwined but she could herself being pulled away.

Her lips unlatched his and she grabbed for his hands but the next thing she knew she was awake in her chambers, breathing heavily, surprisingly she could still taste Loki on her lips like he had really been there in her room. However, it was all but a dream. An unforgettable dream.
