Authors Notes: This was meant to be all dirty fun, but the romance and drama kept stopping by, knocking on the door, and finally I just had to let them in. Just a minor break from "Off the Grid" for me.

Copenhagen, Denmark
Dr. Jane Marie Foster was quite certain, provided she wasn't completely losing her mind which wouldn't be out of the question these days, that she might be starting a small fire with her white Nike sneakers on the wooden rooftop as she restlessly paced back and forth. Or maybe she was just being silly because she was so wired from lack of sleep and six cups of coffee. Whatever the reason her nerves were tight-rope walking a razors edge as she rubbed her hands up and down her arms to ward off the the night's chill, even as a couple of raindrops danced along her hairline. Thankfully she wore a light jacket this evening.
Still, as always, her gaze lifted ever to the stars.
She was anxious and hated it. Despised it even. Reminded her far to much of being in high school where she felt like a bit of an outcast for not giving a crap about Homecoming when a meteor shower was happening that very night. Her standard operating procedure was being relentlessly focused, overwhelmingly prepared, and acutely aware of all variables while munching Pop-Tarts for mental energy. And yet two things weighed heavily in her thoughts tonight, sneakily intruding in on what was supposed to be a wonderful reunion.
Thor was coming home, finally, after eight long weeks on Asgard. There he had assisted in peace talks with two warring worlds, his steady hand and well-respected persona a necessary ingredient in calming their growing tensions. Speaking with the authority of Mjolnir and the whole of the Asgardian army didn't hurt either. And ever since he gifted her with a mystical bracelet that allowed them to whisper short messages to each other from across the stars, her worries about being out of contact with him for long stretches of time finally ended. And two days ago his whisper stated he was coming home tonight.
Home being wherever she was, which currently was the beautiful capital city of Denmark for the last ten days. Jane, Darcy, Ian, and Eric arrived to investigate an intense array of galactic readings with engineers at the Niels Bohr Institute located in University of Copenhagena. These readings were so strong and constant that Jane's proprietary equipment was able to track and assign frequencies to them. Sort of like cataloging power surges that no one knew existed until just a few short years ago when Thor first came to Earth and the Tesseract was unearthed.
All of that led to problem 'One' of Jane's mental minefield of doom. Halting her potentially fire-starting pace in front of a wide work desk covered by a small canopy, she quickly accessed the keyboard, checking and re-checking the calibrations on the mid-sized radar array to her specifications. If her calculations were correct, if she was truly on the path to understanding how the Bifrost worked, then this loaner radar system would pick up those recently discovered energy readings just before Thor arrived. And if that happened it meant she was finally able to specifically track and identify galactic energy spikes to create an early warning system, and take that first little baby step towards understanding how to someday travel across the stars.
This was exciting, exhilarating, forward-thinking, grueling work. But was her life's work. And she would see it through. See it done, damn anything in her path.
Alas, issue 'Two' causing her worry this evening was the romantic homecoming she had planned. Complimented by a sneaky little excursion while in the States a few weeks ago to visit her old pal Victoria, whom she hadn't seen in quite some time, and took possession of a Secret or two from her lacy collection. Couple that with two bottles of the best wine from Tony Stark's lavish stock and she was ready to drown herself in some hot Asgardian loving all night long.
Sadly though, plans for a romantic reunion had to be thrown out the nearest window the moment she made her mini breakthrough earlier today. The time just before, and a few short hours after the Bifrost delivered Thor was the most crucial time for her research. Tracking and cataloging the spikes of dark matter and dark energy would greatly further her cause of understanding how the Bifrost used its galactic GPS to deposit anyone anywhere. There was no way to replicate or predict it. She had to gather the intell onsite and accurately in the time frame given.
Of course it would have been be easier if Darcy hadn't bailed an hour ago with Ian seeking, in her words, "We're gonna grab a hotel room, drink enough liquor to kill a elephant, and get a far enough distance away from the inevitably loud alien banging you will be engaging in all night."
Feeling a faint blush tinge her cheeks as she was definitely craving some loud alien banging after eight weeks, Jane exhaled deeply. Her hazel eyes once more looked to the stars on such a beautiful misty night. With Eric away for the next two days, she greatly looked forward to her and Thor spending time together minus the outside world. Always easier said than done, but a girl could dream.
Suddenly a signal beacon siren began blaring from her workstation. Twin pop-up windows opened on her computer monitor, detailing in a grid incoming surges from two, and then three separate sources. Jane quickly launched herself into the chair to ensure her equipment was working properly. The signal was strong as the energy spikes were amplifying in strength to levels her equipment could barely register. It had to be the Bifrost. This was exactly what she expected to happen if her research was correct. And she'd put in the hard work and long hours to ensure it.
"Excelsior!" she proclaimed with a wild glee, pumping her fists. She smashed her palm on a timer by the keyboard, stood to her feet and waited. If she was correct she would have less than a minute before the Bifrost opened and Thor arrived, but that would mean she had made a huge breakthrough. "Come on, come on, come on!" she paced in front of the monitor, rubbing her hands together.
Thirty seconds passed.
Nothing.
Forty seconds.
Fifty one seconds, and then a brilliant column of multicolored light rained down from the heavens, slamming into the outer corner of the rooftop. Asgardian symbols burned into the wood, scorching their imprint. Emerging from the center of the near blinding light was Thor in casual Earth attire of jeans and a dark button down shirt. He tossed Mjolnir to the ground, dropped his travel bag off his shoulder, and then advanced on her so swiftly it borderlined on furious. Joy danced in his eyes. "My heart at long last stands before me."
"Welcome home." Smiling wildly, Jane's brain wanted to regale him with her latest triumph, as she knew he was interested and vested in her research. There was so much to tell him about. Her breakthrough alone was mind-boggling.
Jane's heart wanted to forget how venomously she hated cliched romantic moments in cheesy romantic movies, and just run at him full speed, leap in his strong arms and tell him how much she loved him because she had missed him so dearly.
Problem was, Jane's heart and brain didn't realize Jane's vagina had taken over as soon as Thor was in arms reach. One second she was watching at him stride towards her with desperately intense purpose, and then the next she swallowed her name from his mouth and was fucking her tongue into it as she was lifted off her feet, and then drawn slowly to the lone dry spot near the canopy with Thor settling between her legs.
Far to overcome with emotion, they kissed with a urgent, intense passion that borderlined on being violent. All tongues and clashing teeth, gasping each others breath. With his strong hands squeezing her ass tightly, while her nails dug into his broad shoulders as they couldn't get close enough. They were utterly lost in each other the moment their eyes met.
"Research," Jane tried to squeak out while sucking wetly on the end of his tongue. But every time his hips flexed, grinding his hard desire against her center she was clawing at the back of his now damp shirt, trying to wrench it off of him. He was so thick pressed against her, creating this desperately hot sensation that saw her hips rising to meet his thrust. Her mind screamed at the run away train of lust to stop at all costs. "Gotta keep track of... OhGod... wait, hold on... need to... Thor, please!"
"I have hungered for you far to many nights, Beloved. And I will sate that hunger now!"
Jane faintly heard Thor growl those words while dragging her jeans and sneakers off. Chilly, damp weather be damned. His beautiful blue eyes pierced through her, igniting her heartbeat so fast she swore she could hear it beating inside her chest. This was so not a part of her plan, coupled with the fact that she hadn't had time to change into anything remotely sexy or even run a brush through her hair in the last four hours because she'd been working all evening. Her carefully crafted plan was falling apart. There was no plan to be found here. Her plan was on the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean. All that she could do was feel her pussy so greedy for him she couldn't remember ever being so sick with lust. "Thor... I'm working on some..."
"No," Thor's whisper let her protest burn to ash. He wasn't listening. Had loved and lusted for her to powerfully to wait another second. And the way she had sucked on his tongue left his cock angrily envious with need for her. She was here and gorgeous and he'd missed her to the point of near madness. Eight weeks was far to long to be away from her now. "All can wait until we are sated."
With his middle finger he brushed exquisite sensation over the darkening, damp cotton covering her center. And then he was moving down her slender body, shoving her panties aside, settling himself between her silky smooth thighs.
"I have to calibrate..." When his warm breath fanned over her weeping sex, Jane's eyes closed slowly as a pink flush stained her cheeks. Her lips curled like a bow, but that first long lash of his tongue caused her hips to arch sharply. Hips that he held onto now while lazily dragging his tongue up and down the slick lips of her sex over and over and over again until her thigh muscles shivered around his head. His tongue dipped inside her, tasting, wetting his mouth with her slick arousal. Her body shifted nearly sideways as he began sucking on her, loudly. "Uhhnnn, fuck!"
Thrusting his tongue inside her, the exotic flavor left his cock throbbing angrily. Her soft little whimpers ripped his sanity to shreds as his fingers dug into her hips, holding her captive to his ravenous desire. Swirl after swirl of his tongue at her opening forced the most erotic sounds he had ever heard a woman make from the pit of her throat. The erotic lust she awakened in him was so tremendous he didn't care about the misty rain that began to fall over them. It turned him on even more, as did the way her lower body twisted and arched as she fed him his juicy feast. "I cannot get enough of you," he panted, lazily rolling his tongue up and down dripping seam of her sex. "What witchcraft have you done to me, woman?," he breathed hotly over her clit, lapping softly as his gaze lifted from between her spread legs. His heart caught in his chest when he witnessed her smother a cry with the back of her hand, the vision so erotic he could barely breathe. Shamelessly, he sucked her pussy as she whined his name in loving worship.
The sinfully erotic noises coming from between her thighs had her fingernails clawing at his scalp, combing through his wet hair, holding him to her. Research! There was research to do! Important work her mind tried to scream! "Thor, I just need a few... Jesus, baby... fuck that feels so..."
Her thighs shuddered as his tongue danced long, slow circles over her swollen clit, before drowning it in warm saliva, and then sucking ever so hard. Pleasure swept through her as her body jerked hard, but he held her firm, seemingly obsessed with lapping her wetness. Her ankles crossed over his back, toes curled, shaking from the intense pleasure as he suckled her clit, drawing deeply, hungrily, swiping his tongue so strongly she saw stars. Her head turned, eyes shut, mouth hung open in a lustful pose while grinding her hips to feed him all of her. "I'm... I'm... so close... Thor, please!"
Wetting two fingers in his mouth, Thor drove them into her deep, thrusting while lashing over her clit with long laps until her moaning reached a fiery crescendo. Her entire body tightened, straining towards ecstasy, and then her back arched high as she screamed his name, cumming so hard as his fingers drove into her faster.
Watching her beautiful face blush as the sweet tension of her climax passionately contorted her lovely features, wincing erotically as the pleasure swept over her. Through it all he never stopped fucking her, even as she twisted and jerked, her thighs shivering around his head until at long last a soft exhale. And then she gently shoved him away, panting heavily.
Her juices glistening over his lips and chin, Thor raised his head enough to meet her dark gaze head on. They wouldn't have ever made it to the kitchen floor or living room couch. No way they'd make it to the bed. This was going to happen, rainy weather be damned.
Struggling mightily to force air back in her lungs and will the tingles running up and down her legs to cease, Jane considered she was still half dressed as light rain fell upon them. Above her the dark night skies were breathtaking, and she had never felt so alive. After a moment when she saw Thor rising above her, kicking off his shoes and tearing at his jeans. He'd gone commando, and then his dress shirt was gone, tossed over his shoulder. Her nipples tightened at the sight of rain droplets cascading down all that lean, hard muscle. She held his heated stare, watching his tongue dance over his bottom lip, tasting her once more. The heavens forgotten, she pleaded sweetly, "Take me."
Unable to speak as desire crippled his throat, Thor fell to his knees, covering her body as their hips aligned in that age old way. He captured her soft mouth, bathing her taste buds with her own flavor, kissing her desperately as the head of his cock pressed to her entrance, and then pushed inside her ever so slowly. She gasped, trembling beneath him as he filled her with all of him until her eyes closed off the world. Clenching around his thick length so erotically he paid no attention to the feel of the wooden floor boards under his knees. Hooking her slender legs around his strong hips, he began rocking deeply into her, spreading her snug flesh around his cock. Fucking the woman he loved more than his own life with long, powerful thrusts while staring directly into her beautiful hazel eyes.
Her insides tightened with every vigorous surge of his body into hers. Her jacket was just thick enough, long enough to provide some protection from the ground, but the rains began falling harder. They were soaking wet, their bodies colliding rhythmically. Lost in the man she loved, Jane clutched a handful of his wet hair and drug his mouth back down to hers. Capturing a slow, deep kiss while moving her hips with him, creating the most pleasurable tension as he thrust above her. The low, rumbling noises he made as she nibbled his bottom lip left her sex closing tightly around his every withdrawal. It was the sexiest thing she had ever felt, him buried deep inside her, fucking her hard.
"I love you," Thor swore in a husky tone of voice, his face buried in the crook of her neck. Fucking her harder now, feeling her nails dig into his back made him feel so powerful and desired. Never had be been so aroused while giving a woman pleasure with his mouth as he had been with his Jane, and already he felt an exquisite end on the horizon. Warm rain pelted his body, rolling off of him in rivets trickling down onto her. "More than anything, I love you."
"Love you so much," she gasped before inhaling his tongue once more, her arms locking around his neck as tightly as her legs over his hips. They fucked harder, straining and rocking, grunting and thrusting as the storm showered them from above until finally Thor's voice roared. One final deep thrust saw his cock erupt in erratic bursts of wet heat, spurting hotly inside her. His climax triggered her second when she bucked violently beneath him, squeezing his cock like a warm, silky vice while swearing her love in his ear.
Listening to the storm above and their labored breathing, Jane certainly hoped Darcy and Ian had gotten that hotel room tonight because this was one show she had no intention of sharing. She held Thor closer, reveling in his return to her arms, safe and sound, once more.
Wild reunion nookie rocked!
"Honey, I'm going to catch pneumonia and get a splinter in my butt if we stay out here any longer," she smiled brightly while tenderly caressing his handsome stubbly face. He was home with her again, and all was right with the world. "We need a quick shower - separately," she playfully warned him when she saw the makings of a smirk, "And then I have work to do and I'm sorry in advance, but it can't wait."
Withdrawing gently, Thor rose onto his knees while soaking wet, and then scooped her up in his arms before rising to his feet. "I wish no illness upon you, ever. Let us go inside," he smiled, naked as the day he was born and so unapologetically comfortable in his skin.
Jane couldn't help but to laugh as she caught sight of half her clothes and shoes in a small drenched pile. Thankfully, she'd left the rooftop door open as they made their way inside and out of the now storm-like conditions. They dripped water everywhere, but she couldn't have cared less. The warmth of the inside was so soothing. "Provided I don't catch a cold, I really do have to get back to work ASAP. See, I made an incredible breakthrough earlier today and..."
Thor listened intently to her scientific findings and her directions as he carefully carried her down a flight of stairs and through a very impressive kitchen to the other side of the house where their bedroom was located, which thankfully had its own master bath. The rental home was nice in his estimation. Warm and comfortable. He cared little for the modest decor. So long as Jane was there, food was nearby, and a bed was present he was happy. Hearing of her recent breakthrough was inspiring, not only due to her skill and dedication, but the sheer exuberance coursing through her veins as she spoke. She was hellbent on leaving a legacy of discovery and innovation that the world could use to protect itself and expand its horizons. She was a true visionary and he respected that to no end.
Alas, his Jane was so damn ambitious. His heart could simply not contain all the love he held for her.
As Thor sat her down, Jane's damp feet hit dry carpet at last. Though she wobbled for a brief moment as two months minus sex meant... yeah, and Thor was no small man by any stretch of the imagination. "So unfortunately or us, I can't let you in this shower with me because you're hot and naked and I'm weak and horny," she snickered by the master bathroom door, finally ridding herself of the wet clothes she still had on. "My work can't wait because its so tied into how recent the Bifrost was used. I'm sorry and I promise I will make it up to you in the morning, provided I don't work all night long." Sighing, her tone was apologetic. "Again though, I'm really sorry."
Tucking a few wet strands of her behind her ear, Thor pressed a lingering kiss to her forehead. He knew when he returned to her and they made their relationship official that her work was one of her defining traits. He understood he would need to exercise patience and support her because this was who she was. And he loved her endlessly. "Have you eaten?"
Jane had to think about that for a moment. "Uhm... no. Coffee isn't food, persay." When was the last time she ate? Her memory was foggy on that one. "I had a donut for lunch... no, breakfast. Yeah, breakfast." When Thor crossed his arms, his face hard with disapproval, she shrank a little. "I know, I know, I have to take better care of myself while I'm working. I get that." She wiggled a finger at him. "And you're still naked."
His grin was pure evil. "Do you disapprove?"
"Your cock is getting hard again." She watched it begin to bob and grow hard. She would have laughed if she didn't want to jump on it so badly. Her eyes rolled as she pretended to look away, grinning. "Not funny."
"I still have yet to hear of your disapproval."
Rising to the occasion, chin lifted, Jane replied, "I love you, but I need to shower, get dressed and get back to work." And then her stomach grumpily made a most unladylike sound. "OK, yes, I am a bit hungry."
His Jane was forever single-minded when chasing her goals. Nearly obsessive when she was on to something. But it was his job to take care of her when she wasn't taking care of herself. She had done the same for him many times. "I'll fly about the area and see what's still open. Maybe even land and knock on a door or two. The mighty Thor could perhaps charm someone into making us something for dinner."
"The mighty Thor talks in the third person now?"
"The mighty Thor seeks only to fulfill your every desire."
Jane shook her head, giggling in a carefree way she thought was reserved for teenagers. Love did wacky things to you. "You don't have to do that. It's storming outside now."
Rising to her comment, Thor proudly noted, "Have you forgotten? I can control the weather."
Her eyes narrowed, and suddenly she wanted to throw a pillow at him. "Then why didn't you do that while we were outside making love?"
Thor ever so calmly entered her personal space, nearly backing her to the wall. He secretly loved that he towered over her. "Because I love to see you wet."
That deep baritone voice of his could send her from scientific to pornographic in a heartbeat. She was a half second away from dragging him to the bed and see if they could break it. But her research needed to be done now. Work, and then play. But she so wanted to play. "Fine, go find food. Seafood preferably. Crab would be excellent."
"I shall get dressed and set myself to purpose." Thor bowed, and then began backing away.
"Whatever did I do to deserve such an incredible boyfriend who fucks me so good, and then afterwards goes and gets my dinner and understands I can't be super romantic tonight because I have to work?"
Thor flashed her a brilliant smile. "You ran me over with your large, rusted carriage." And then in the cutest, unThorlike sing-song voice, "And my heart was lost to you forever more."
Laughing, Jane's smile lit up the night. She figured he was a keeper, 'her' Thor. She mouthed a quiet little "I love you," which felt woefully inadequate to the emotion that lived in her heart for this man from the stars.
