Snakes (Loki)

April 1st, or as Loki likes to call it his birthday after he learnt about it from the Midgardians. I like to call it the worst day to be married to him. Being the wife of the God of Mischief is fun, I'm usually helping him with the tricks that he plays on Thor and his associates. However, on April fool's day, I am the at the receiving end of his jokes.

There are many things that Loki and I have in common, but the one thing I hate more than April 1st is snakes. Thor seems to love him, I remember the time when Loki transformed himself into a snake to trick Thor, so he could stab him, they were 8 at the time.

Although I have made it very clear to the both of them how much I don't like snakes, they both still insist that they aren't that bad. Hmm no definitely not that bad, why would over 600 hundred species of snakes, all poisonous I might add, scare the bejesus out of me?

Anyway, because it's April 1st, I have no desire to leave the chambers that I share with Loki. To be honest I don't really want to move knowing that there could be some sort of trap waiting for me to step right into. But alas Frigga wanted to speak with me today, and I can't remain isolated all day being the wife of a prince. Although it doesn't seem that much of a problem, some Asgardians still can't get over Loki's past. Meaning if I'm gone for even a day, rumours will probably swim around the kingdom, finally landing in the corridors of the castle.

I wake up in the early hours of the morning, as I always do, wrapped in the arms of my beloved.
I give Loki a gentle kiss making him stir and slowly awaken. I Love to watch him sleep, but I love to hear his husky morning voice so much more.

"Good morning my queen," he sighs kissing me back and pulling me closer to him. I rest my head under his and listen closely to his heartbeat.

"Good morning darling... please tell me that you haven't set up any tricks for me to face today. You know I love your games, but I love making them, not playing them." I look up at him hopefully, however he only gives me his signature smirk and 'evil' laugh.

"I make no promises my love. Don't worry, Thor will hate me even more than he already does once this day is done," he hugs me tighter and I giggle. Good to know that I'm not at the receiving end this time.

I give him one last long loving kiss before getting out of bed.

"AAAAAHHHHH!" I scream once my feet are one the floor. I could feel moving from under my feet and look down to see that the floor is covered in snakes. "LOKI!"

He places a hand on his stomach as he chuckles deeply. I turn to look at him as I hug my knees, "what was that for?" I cry, fearful tears falling down my face, "you know how much I hate snakes."

Loki calms down and stops laughing, a green glow illuminates the floor, and the snakes vanish, "I'm sorry darling," he laughs just a little more, "but what do you expect from the God of mischief. You, Thor and his friends are the only people I'm allowed to trick; I'm almost certain I would be sent to the dungeons if I tried to trick Odin or mother."

I sigh and fall into his arms again, crying just a little bit.

"Please don't cry my queen," he lifts up my head with his index finger and gave me a soft kiss on my lips and forehead. "I'm sorry darling, please don't be angry with me," he pleads. Loki obviously isn't one for sentiment and apologies, but when he's with me, he is a totally different person.

"I'm not angry at you, just promise me that you don't do anything like that again. Like I said I don't mind your tricks, but please... you know how much I hate snakes. Please don't do it again."

"I promise my queen, that's the only trick I had planned for you today anyway, so why don't we go and mess around with Thor, I've thought of some things we could do to him." He smirks and kisses me again.

I smile at him and rest my head back into his shoulder, "I love you so much Loki."

"I love you too my sweet," he strokes my hair, and we fall back asleep together, just enjoying the feeling of us being together.

A/N: I'm actually quite surprised that this chapter was quite easy to write because I didn't really have any ideas for this chapter, but then I read an imagine talking about April fools day and the person saying it was Loki's birthday because he's the god of mischief and all that. I'm happy with how this one turned out. Please leave your thoughts. ❤
