Romance and Mischief (Book 1)

Chapter 14: "Not Funny".

     "Sir." A man stood behind another, wearing a black coat. He turned, showing the eye patch on him. He crossed his arms.

"It's confirmed, He's here." The man paused.

Nick Fury, the head of the SHIELD, just stood there. A smirk on his mouth, his eyes strongly darted at the screen, his hands clenched.

Alice

     Another day, A better one. I quickly ran to my bathroom and washed up, then fixed my hair and everything else. I gently opened the door, and walked out. "Loki?" I look around, no sign on him. There was a cup of coffee on the table, I smirk. He must've made it himself. Such a sweet man, I thought to myself. I sat there and stared at the coffee, smiling. I'm still lovestruck.

But I was still feeling a bit nervous. Where could he be? I thought of going out but he wouldn't just leave. Did he?

I open the front door and there I saw him, lying on the floor. I run to him and I start to panic.

"Loki? Loki?" I call out his name, patting his arm. I let him lay on my lap while we were on the ground. "What happened?!" I tried asking him. He didn't answer, and layed there still. My eyes were watering, I copped his cheek with my palm, gently brushing my thumb on his cheek. "Loki, please. Talk to me.." I said repeatedly.

When suddenly, His body started to fade, like a visualized monogram. He disappears in my arms. I was confused, and yet about to panic. I stood up, looking on the ground. My eyes still widened.

"What a dramatic entrance." Loki suddenly said, standing at the corner.

I turn to him with a gasp. "Good morning." He says, his arms crossed. He was leaning on the wall, wearing his coat and shirt, and his leather pants.

I slowly stepped closer to him. He paused. "You f*ckin douche!" I exclaimed and tried to hurt him.

He was laughing at me, dodging my hits. He held onto both my arms and put his face closer to mine.

"Calm yourself." He says looking at me.

I pulled my hands down, and walked away from him and into my room.

"What is the matter? I was just trying to have a little fun." He chuckled.

I stopped walking and turned to him quickly, raging. "Fun? You call that fun? I thought you were dead! Don't just laugh at me, I can't believe you made fun of me." I exclaimed.

He scoffed, "Hey, you started the whole thing. You made fun of me when we first met, then you made me wear that 'avengers' shirt." He raised his eyebrows.

"What? That was just a small thing." I look away. 

"But you made fun of me twice, so double it, it is as worse as what I hath done earlier." He added chuckling. 

"Just don't joke around with stuff like that, it's not funny." I said pointing a finger at him, 

Loki looked at me and moved my finger away,

God, that look is just -ugh. His eyebrow raised, innocent look in his eyes, and lips a bit pouted.

"I'm sorry."

Looking down on my feet, I sighed.

"I forgot," He added, "It is a loved-one, isn't it?" he held my hand.

"I lost two of them, And I'm not gonna lose another one, again." I said. I already lost my parents when I was young. It caused a great trauma. And my only outlet was a pen and a paper. I had to write everything down to try to drain all the pain. Over the years, it helped.

I looked at him, he was still gazing at me. He's so tall.

"I know, I'm terribly sorry." He looked all serious, and he pressed his lips against my forehead. He slowly kissed me on my lips.

I was lost.

"It won't happen again."

What won't happen again? What was he talking about? I thought to myself, I just smirked. I was lost staring at his eyes. He touched my lip with his thumb. I reached for his hand,

"I adore you, Alice Sigyn."

The sides of my lips quirk up, "I love you too, Loki."
