Loki and I were sitting in these damned cells down in the dungeon, where we were doomed to live out our lives as prisoners. At lease we were somewhat together, though I wish it was in the same cell; but that would be outrageous two of the best masterminds in the same cell would spell for disaster.
"Lilly, are you all right? You are unusually silent." Loki asked I know that I was quiet, but I didn't know he noticed.
"Yes, Love I'm alright just thinking that's all." He looked over at me, I knew he could see through me, but there was no reason to worry him. Being stuck down here depressed me, I was just lucky he hadn't seen the cuts on my arms. I loved him with all of my heart but not being able to touch him, just being able to hear him was starting to make me very lonely. We used to sit side by side next to the magical wall between us, but since I started cutting I've moved away. If he were too see the cuts he would go to hell and back to make sure they took me out and put me with him.
"Mother will be down soon with dinner. Please brighten up." Loki said looking over at me and trying to make me smile, I smile back to reassure him that I was ok. As soon as I heard footsteps though my smile faded as Thors mom, Loki's adoptive mother rounded the corner with two platters of food.
"Good evening my loved ones. Are you hungry?" She asked looking straight at me, knowing that I've barley eating in a couple of days. Thankfully Loki didn't know that either.
"Yes mother of course, you cooking are absolutely marvelous." I smiled up at her, but I could tell she wasn't fooled as she sat my platter next to me. As soon as she walked away Loki dived into his food taking little time in eating it. I started picking at mine eating little bites here and there so he didn't notice. After dinner Loki and I sat in a deadly silence till he finally fell asleep.
"Lilly." I looked up from watching Loki sleep to see that Frigga was standing just in my cell.
"Yes ma'am?" I said politely as I gave a small bow in respect.
"No need to be formal with me my dead, you are as much my daughter as Loki is my son. Speaking of Loki, I can see he hasn't found out about the cuts on your arms. Yes I know about them, a mother know everything. How are you hiding them so well?" I watched as she took a seat near me. I glanced down at the dozen upon dozen of angry red cuts on my arm.
"I just don't go near the wall anymore, and I wear long sleeves." I said as I ran a finger over one of the cut feeling the sting of it.
"Doesn't he notice that you are no longer going near the wall, whereas a month ago we couldn't separate you two from that wall? I know he is not Oblivious to your actions lilly." She asked as she looked meaningfully at Loki still fast asleep in his cell.
"He does notice but just brushes it off as my being lonely, which is not entirely a lie. Being in here not being about to touch him is making me so depressed, and I'm afraid that if we spend more time together our love will fade." I said feeling tears burn down my face; I started picking at the cuts making them bleed once again. Frigga came over to me and gently grabbed my wrist stopping my ministrations.
"Dear look at me, your love will not fade. You love is very powerful, Loki loves you more than he loves power and believe me he loves power very much. It's the type of love that no matter how much time passes it will never fade, it is stronger than the forces of the nine realms. All you must do is hang in there things will get better." I glanced over at Loki who was still fast asleep and sighed, I knew she was right. Even when we were trying to take over Midgard he always put me first that was the reason we surrendered in the first place.
"I'm worried about him too; he has to be suffering too. How much longer is his sanity going to hold up? He can only take so much as well." I wiped my face with the back of my hands.
"You both will pull though this, I promise." She leaned over then and kissed my forehead, and then she was gone. I finally got settled and fell fast asleep. Sometime in the night I was woken by someone crying, and after a moment I recognized that the cries were coming from Loki. I sat up instantly and almost ran to the wall; Loki was off in the far corner of his cell curled in a ball. His room was total mess furniture toppled sideways and some of it even broken. What worried me the most was the blood smeared everywhere.
"Oh my goodness, Loki, are you alright. What happened here?" He looked up at me and fresh tear started falling down his face.
"I heard you and mother speaking last night, I heard it all. My princess, why are you going to such extremes of hurting yourself? Does out unborn child not mean anything to you?" he stood up and I notice that his foot was badly bleeding, as he limped over to the wall. I looked down at my bulging abdomen and place a hand on top of it.
"Our baby means that world to me Loki, you know that. I would never hurt her, not for anything." I said my throat thick with tears, how could he suggest such a thing.
"How are you so sure it is a girl? You refuse to tell mother so there is no way you're getting proper treatment." He snapped at me. I flinched; Loki had never raised his voice at me.
"I always dream about a little girl, she has your eyes. You know why I won't tell mother, they'll take her away Loki I know they will we are prisoners. The dungeon is no place for a baby to be raised in." I snapped back, but the back bone in me melted the moment I saw him flinch. "I'm sorry my love, I didn't mean to raise my voice at you. But please understand why I'm doing this. I want to protect our baby."
"And what happens once you fall into labor, how are you going to hide it then Lillianna. They will find out sooner or later, it will be better if you tell them now and get the proper help you need." I looked down, I knew he was right. I couldn't hide this pregnancy much longer. My bulging abdomen couldn't be hidden anymore either.
"Alright, I will alert mother in the morning. But for now get some rest alright?" I asked begging him with my eye to believe me.
"Alright in the morning and no later. I love you my princess." He finally said after a long moment of silence. Then he went over to his bed and fell fast asleep. I was too worried to sleep so I sat there and thought up possible names for the baby. Soon they will try to take her from me, but I do not plan to let her go easily.
