"Darling, what has happened? What did you see?" She followed him around the bed chamber like a lost dog. He turned to her, pain, betrayal, and anger were evident in his face. He began from the beginning.

Thor held Loki close and caressed his side absent mindedly.

"Loki?" Thor kissed his forehead as Loki made a noise in response to his name. "May I see you again?" Loki opened eyes and a smile spread across his face.

"Thor, if you don't I may just have to break out of this box to see you." Thor chuckled and pulled Loki closer as they fell into an endless, blissful sleep.

**Three Weeks Later**

Loki's stomach was churning. He couldn't keep anything down. He just hoped Thor would not come to see him today because he would surely know something was wrong. He laid back on his simple cot hoping that the sickness would pass quickly, to his horror he heard that oh so faint clock and single entry and exit open.

"Loki, I have brought you fresh clothes." Thor closed the door behind him and slowly crossed the room. Loki refused to turn away from the grey, titanium wall that he knew almost as well as Thor's anatomy. Thor had made it a habit of coming once a week to "bring fresh clothes" but that was only to make up for the shredded ones he would always leave in a pile on the floor.

Thor knew something was wrong when he opened the door. Loki had not met him at the door like he had every time before. Thor sat on the cot and rubbed his lover's back to soothe him.

"Loki, tell me what has happened. You can confide in me." Loki finally turned away from the wall. Thor gasped in horror. Loki's cheeks were sunken and his face was absolutely green. Now, that Thor really looked at him he could tell that Loki was much skinnier than the week before. "Who has done this to you?! Are the guards not feeding you properly, Loki? I shall speak harshly with them if they are." Loki grabbed Thor's large hand.

"Thor, it is no ones fault. I am just feeling ill. I cannot keep any food down so I am not getting enough nutrition." Thor touched Loki's face.

"Then, we must take you to the Healing Room." Thor picked Loki off of the cot and cradled him in his arms as if he were a child. "Guards! Open the door! Loki must be taken to the Healing Room at once!" There was no answer for a few moments. "Guards!" Thor was getting very angry. Finally, the door opened he stepped out of the small door and stared into the eye of the man who had brought this upon his Loki, Odin. "Father, please. Loki is very sick. Look at him!"

Odin stared at the sight before him, Loki pale and sickly, Thor strong and impatient. It was as if he was reliving their childhood again. There were many times that Thor would bring Loki into his bed chamber in the night screaming about Loki being very cold, Thor never realized it was from Loki being Laufeyson.

"Thor, did I not say that seeing Loki was forbidden?" Odin spoke harshly Thor stared at him.

"You did, Father."

"Then, why are you carrying him out of his prison?" Odin was shouting.

"Father, I needed to see him. It was killing me! I am sorry for betraying you, but may we please speak of this after we heal Loki?" Thor's eyes were pleading Odin.

"Loki is not in need of healing, my son." Loki finally turned to Odin confused. "Loki, my son, you have been impregnated."

Loki stared at Odin in disbelief. How is that possible? Last time he checked Loki was a man. He heard Thor speak:

"How is that even possible, Father? Loki is a man. Men cannot be impregnated."

"Loki is Laufeyson, a Frost Giant the Jotunn are inter-breeders. Have you ever seen a female Frost Giant?" Odin explained everything so matter-of-factly that it seemed almost rehearsed. Loki and Thor thought about this question for a long time. They both shook their heads at the same time. "Thor, Odinson, you must choose."

"Choose, Father?" Thor held Loki closer.

"Your throne and kingdom or your love for Loki, Laufeyson." Loki's mouth dropped he could not believe what the Allfather was using as an ultimatum. Thor would always choose his throne over Loki.

"I choose Loki. I love him more than you can imagine, Father. If I were to be king it would mean nothing without having Loki by my side." Odin stared at Thor before nodding.

"I am proud of you, my son. You have proved yourself worthy of being my heir. You renouncing your throne for a man who once tried to kill you, has revealed to me that you shall be a wise and powerful king. However, I do not know if I can trust you yet, Loki." Thor began to argue with Odin.

"Father, I know that his love for me is true! Even if it takes a century he shall regain your trust!"

"Silence. I want him to regain my trust because someday you shall be king and I know that you will not accept unless Loki remains at your side. What I shall propose is that you to one of the seven realms that is uninhabited until the child is of 10 years and then you return to me and prove that you can be trusted, Loki." Loki nodded slowly. All of this was happening too fast for him to process.

"Father, what are we to do about Loki? His heart rate is slowing and his body temperature is falling." Odin called a guard and whispered something into his ear.

"Put him back in his cell. The guard is getting Loki what he needs." Thor obeyed. Loki was curled up in the fetal position hoping that this morning sickness would go away soon. He began to slip in and out of consciousness.

Thor held Loki close trying to keep him warm. Odin was going to send them to Ginnungagap when Loki was awake enough to make the journey. He had been slipping in and out of consciousness for almost a week now. Finally, his reverse fever broke and he had begun to warm up again.

"Thor?" Loki's groggy voice pulled him from his own thoughts and back to reality.

"Loki." He leaned down and kissed him finally receiving a kiss back he realized that Loki was awake this time.

"How long have I been out?" Loki ran fingers through his long, waist length hair.

"Not yet a week, brother." Loki's heart nearly broke until he saw his mother and guards walk through the small door. She spoke gently.

"Thor, how is he?"

"He has finally awoken, Mother." A sad look spread across her face for a split second before she recovered.

"Then, it is time."

"I don't trust him" Frigga paced the length of the bedroom she and her husband Odin shared. "What if he's just playing with Thor? A child is a very powerful weapon." Odin looked at her for a moment before speaking.

"If we must, we will have to banish Loki or Thor."

"NO! I cannot bare to lose my sons again! My heart cannot take the pain!" Frigga clenched her fist and held it to her chest.

"Frigga, we need to teach them a lesson" Frigga was very concerned and did not want to lose her children.

"Are you positive about what you saw?"

"I saw the child as clearly as I see you, dear. The child was standing between Thor and Loki. I do not understand but Midgard was dark. We must deal with it before something terrible happens." Odin held Frigga close.

"Fine, but I want to see my grandchild at least once before they are in their 10th year. I want to be able to see them whenever I feel the urge." Frigga stared into Odin's eye pleading.

"Alright. Whatever you want, dear."
