Note: Expect short chapters from time to time :P
About two weeks later I was in my cell when I had two unexpected visitors. I stood up from my bed and approached the class wall where Fury and Thor were standing. As soon as I saw Thor, my heart skipped a beat and I nearly forgot how to breathe. The only thing running through my mind was Loki. Why else would Thor have been there?
"Is… Is everything alright?" I asked them, glancing at them both. They both did not seem thrilled about what they were about to tell me. Thor glanced over to Fury and he nodded back.
"Brianna… Um… I have asked Heimdall to look in on you every once in awhile, just to see how you were being treated here on midgard. Heimdall then sensed that your heart still yearns for my adoptive brother, Loki." he paused briefly. I was now gritting my teeth nervously.
"go on…" I said finally.
"And I just thought you should know that Loki has…. He has been seeing this woman, Sigyn, or rather she has been visiting him in his cell, and I thought it would be cruel of me to let you go on believing my brother feels the same way about you, the way you feel for him…"
"What are you saying?" I say, crossing my arms and swallowing the tears that threaten to spill from my eyes.
"Loki intends on being with Sigyn, marrying her even, if he does get out of his cell… he told me that he never had feelings for you and that he would never be with 'midgardian filth' as he called it, like I am with Jane." At these words, my heart sank. Whatever it was I felt when I was with Loki was fake. There was nothing ever there. I made a fool out of myself for no one. I was childish to think there would be anything more.
"No." was what spilled out of my mouth, contradicting my thoughts. "you are telling me lies" I say, my voice wavering. Thor frowned and pulled out a stone from his pocket. I watched it carefully and within a few seconds images started flashing before my eyes. Images of Loki sharing an embrace with a beautiful woman. I closed my eyes. "Enough…" I whispered and the images stopped as Thor put the rock back in his pocket.
"I am so sorry…" I heard Thor say, but I still did not open my eyes as I was partially trying to process everything and keep back tears. Instead I just nodded. I then heard footsteps exiting and I opened my eyes. Fury was still standing there, looking at me.
"Are you alright?" he asked me.
"I am fine." I smiled but my eyes betrayed me. I brushed the small tears away before taking a deep breath and turning to sit back down on my bed. "It was silly really… I didn't even really know him. I just wanted to feel something besides the numbness and hurt and betrayal that I was getting from Taz." I swallowed the rest of my tears, refusing to let any more escape. I put on a brave face. "I will be fine, I'm glad know and I'm glad he is happy" I said with a smile. "go on I'll be fine." I said laughing slightly. Fury nodded before walking off. That night, I allowed myself to cry for Loki but after that, not one tear was shed on his behalf.
