A New York Secret

Chapter Twenty Three

"Is he always such an ass?" Loki asked.

Emily chuckled. "Most of the time that would be a good word to describe Tony. But he's gotten a little better since I've started working for him."

"I think he still has a lot of improvement to do." Loki said, starting to feel the soreness in his leg from being up and about.

"You and me both." When they reached their floor, Emily led Loki back to their home and opened the front door to see Thor crashed out on the couch with a bag of chips. "I guess we were gone longer than I thought."

"Not necessarily." Loki chuckled. "He did say he was up late." He reminded Emily, then stepped inside with her. "I hope he doesn't eat all of our food."

"If we get low on food, I'll have more ordered," Emily replied quietly as she shut the door behind him. "What would you like to do?"

Loki shrugged. "Watch a movie or something?" He suggested. "Is it too cold to go outside?"

"I haven't checked the weather today, but I don't want you to overwork your leg," Emily commented. "We could watch a movie in the bedroom?"

"That sounds good. I need to show you the plan to get around Stark's rules as well." Loki said with a grin.

Emily smiled at him. "I'll make some popcorn, then I'll meet you in the bedroom. There's a tv on the wall across from the bed."

Loki nodded and made sure his brother was sleeping, then stole a quick kiss. "I will be in the bedroom then." He said, then walked away to go get comfortable and off his leg.

A blush filled Emily's cheeks at Loki's boldness. That's the first time he's done that. Butterflies swarmed her belly the entire time she fixed the popcorn, being careful to stay as quiet as she could. She checked on Thor one last time, seeing he was still snoring, then walked into the bedroom and shut the door behind her with her free hand. "Have you picked anything?" She asked.

"I can't remember which of the magic movies we left off on, but I would like to continue with those, if you don't mind them." Loki replied. He was sitting on the bed with his legs stretched out.

"We can watch Harry Potter. I think we were on the fourth one, which is Goblet of Fire. Does that sound right?" Emily walked over to the other side of the bed and sat beside him, putting the popcorn in between them.

Loki nodded. "Yes, that sounds right. I think that's the one we fell asleep during." He said, then picked up a couple pieces of popcorn.

Emily grabbed the remote and turned on the tv before she pulled up the menu. "We can start that one from the beginning then." She sat back and snuggled into the pillows.

"Before we start the movie... if you want to break the rules..." Loki muttered, then conjured a bra and panties set on the bed in front of Emily. The set matched in dark green with gold trim.

"That's beautiful Loki. I love it." Emily leaned over and pressed a lingering kiss to his cheek.

"This way, you can wear green and he will never know." Loki said with a little grin.

Emily chuckled and moved the bowl aside so she could snuggle closer to him. "I love your plan," she said softly. "Maybe I'll show you how it looks tonight?"

Loki's eyes widened in surprise. "I... if you're comfortable with that." He answered, realizing he was eager to see her in such little clothing.

"I don't mind," Emily told him, then grasped his chin to kiss him gently. "I can't seem to stop kissing you," she murmured.
