When I Met You

Chapter 21: Best Day Ever!

You got changed as Loki requested, finding out that not only did he fix your super suit, your boyfriend also changed it slightly, he added gold fingerless gloves, similar to his and the whole suit had a subtle sort of gold shimmer to it. The whole thing seemed to fit that much better too, not that you had any problems with the fit before, but now it was practically perfect and you didn't know how to feel. You walked out of the bathroom, mask in hand with your arms crossed, looking at Loki with a raised brow while asking him what this was all about, clearly referring to the changes he made. But Loki only gave you a smile, he thought you looked so good in your suit, the fit wasn't unflattering before, but now it hugged your curves that much better, showing off your amazing figure.  

"Loki, I'm being serious, why did you change it?" you ask, before saying you weren't angry, well not like a lot anyway, you didn't understand what you were feeling and you were mad about it. Loki couldn't help but smile wider and even laugh a little, thinking the grumpy expression you gave him was absolutely adorable, wanting nothing more than to grab your cute face and shower you with kisses. Loki still wasn't saying anything, just giving you a weird, almost sly smile, so you walked right up to him, waving one hand in his face as you said, "Earth to Loki, this is mission control, is anyone home?". You liked teasing him sometimes, and Loki himself was definitely liking it too, especially the grin that had formed on your face, but even more than that, the look of surprise you had when he suddenly pulled you into his arms. Loki pressed a kiss to your lips, before saying "I just wanted it to be the best for you, as you deserve the best, my sweet mortal", and you broke into a blush at his words, trying very hard to be mad about it but you couldn't, merely letting out a groan as you pressed your face against his chest. 

You walk into the living room where Thor, Hulk, and Lily were waiting and you can already hear your snakey baby, she wanted to go home and sleep, no doubt tired from being up this long. Lily would normally sleep at least 16 hours like most other snakes but she was up last night waiting for you and only slept once Loki brought her over and she was exhausted. "Okay, okay, I hear you, Lily, you can go home and rest now", you say, before turning to the guys saying you'll have to drop Lily off at home first, explaining next that you could communicate with animals as both Thor and Hulk looked a little confused. Loki already knew about this ability, occasionally making fun of you because only "Disney Princesses" could talk to animals, while Thor just seemed a bit impressed, as he wished he could understand what Lily said, but Hulk remained quiet, just staring at you, wondering if what he was thinking was even possible. "Healing factor... tough as nails... talks to animals... no claws though... hmm..." Hulk thought before asking you straight up who your dad was, to the surprise of everyone in the room. 

The Asgardians thought it was quite weird for the big green guy to ask you something like that, with Loki even getting a little mad about it, as he knew the answer but you calmly responded, "um... I don't actually know, my mom said he was just some Canadian guy she met at a bar... I do remember her saying he gave off "lumberjack vibes" though, based on the way he was dressed when they met". "No, it's not possible," Hulk thought, trying to convince himself to unthink what he thought, asking about your mother next, hoping to avoid the awkwardness. You tell Hulk that your mom is Dr.Rachel Andersen a Geneticist, and he knows who she is, saying as much, having the displeasure of encountering her some years ago, or at least Bruce did, but he didn't tell you that part. You looked down at your feet, letting out a large sigh as you gripped your one arm tight and knowing how your mom could be you apologized, stating that you weren't like her. Hulk knew that, giving you a smile, ruffling your hair before you fixed it and popped on your mask, saying that you'd be right back as you walked up to Loki and asked extra-sweetly if he wouldn't mind teleporting to your house to drop Lily off. 

Loki seemingly didn't mind taking Lily home and of course, you had to go as well, wanting to tuck your sweet snakey baby into bed while grabbing a few things once you were back at the house. You knew it was supposed to be a surprise but you asked Loki if they were leaving the country, as if that were indeed the case, you would have to make another stop to exchange some currency, just in case you wanted to buy something while you were there. Loki did confirm that they were staying in the U.S. so that was good, you wouldn't have to make anymore pitstops and could just go straight there, wherever "there" was. So with that, you packed up your official Aurora backpack, it was white, had a hard outer shell, and your logo in gold, showing it off to Loki as you were kind of proud of yourself that you were able to make it.
