Chapter 4:

*Loki's POV*

The sun's rays awakens me from my slumber. My eyes open to see that I was holding Lady Alexandra's book in my sleep. Maybe it is best for me to return the book to her. I did my new Midgardian morning routine and place on these black slacks with a button down green shirt and dress shoes. I believe that these are called.

The large mirror shows my reflection. Each time I see myself in Midgardian clothing, I never see me as myself, but then again, Lady Alexandra might likes me like this.

My knuckles hit the door of her chambers, still not sure if she has awaken as well. Hearing silence, I decided to enter her chambers to return the book, but once I entered, I heard something. It's like running water from a waterfall, but some steam appears from a door in her bedroom. Lady Alexandra wasn't in her bed like last night. That made me a blush on my face after I realized. She's currently doing her morning routine.

Quickly, I return to the living area of her chambers with the door closed behind me. Naughty thoughts appear. Thinking of this beautiful Midgardian goddess naked with the steamy hot water covering her pale skin. The blush deepens as I rub my temples, calming my mind. I seated myself on her comfortable couch.

'Why must I think about these thoughts of her if she's not yet my princess?' I thought to myself, sighing.

Some time has past by when the beautiful goddess has made her entrance from her bedroom. Her favorite color black colors her tight sweats, showing the curves of her short legs, as the tight shirt shows a lot of her moonlight skin. Very thin straps moves over her shoulders trailing a sharp sweetheart neckline. Her breasts has a great amount of it. They're not so big yet not so small. Also the shirt is showing skin from her lower stomach.

"Oh greetings your highness," she answers, noticing me.

Her eyes are filled with sleep still, no makeup is on her beautiful face. Long, dark locks pulled into a low bun, leaving a few strands hanging down.

"Greetings Lady Alexandra," I greeted back, holding back the blush, "was I interrupting your morning routine?"

"Oh no my prince," she smiles a little, raising her hand out, "you have arrived at a good time for me to talk to others."

"I have came to return your book," I offer her the book.

"Thank you my prince," she accepts it, "did you enjoy learning Jane's and mine past?"

"Yes I did," I smiled softly to her as she sits next to me, "I never knew you can understand me."

"It's very rare for two people can understand such a dark past."

Lady Alexandra leans down to get something under the small table in front of us. A large black box appears with matching color lace covers it beautifully and silver at the corners. I was rather confused of why pull this box out, but became shock when she opens it. There are so many different tools with different colors..

"What are all of those?" I asked her.

She looks at me with a confused look. "Is this your first time seeing a female's makeup?" she asks me.

"Uhh, females from Asgard don't really have this much of makeup."

"Really?" now she's shocked.

"Yes."

Then she begins coloring her face with a lot of makeup. This makes me frown, her beauty shouldn't have this much makeup.

"Lady Alexandra," I speak to her, "why wear so much makeup?"

"Because I'm ugly without makeup," she answers rather quickly, still focusing on the makeup.

I can feel my heart hurt a little. "Why say such words?"

"Because it's true."

It saddens me that this beautiful goddess doesn't see the beauty she has.

"Would you like it if I wear less makeup today?" she asked me, looking at me, finished the first layer.

My eyes widen a little when she asked me that. "Yes please," I answered softly.

"Very well my prince."

Lady Alexandra did only two things on her eyelids. A thin black line covers around her black as night eyes and trails on the sides of the eyes. Also her lashes are curl up, making her eyes appear bigger.

"Is this good your highness?"

The familiar blush appear on my face when I see her.

"It looks….beautiful," I managed to say.

A faint shade of pink colors lightly on her face as she smiles to me. Oh gods, her smile is so beautiful like her.

"Thank you your highness."

"You're very welcome Lady Alexandra."

All of a sudden, our eyes meet in a romantic contact. I can feel myself falling in love with Lady Alexandra. She's beautiful, smart, have a lot of things in common, and also she treats me like a true prince. Maybe she's the one for me. Our faces slowly lean into each other as our eyes begin to close. When we are only millimeters from our first kiss together, something has startled us to pull apart.

*Alexandra's POV*

Unfortunately, I know that sound very well. We both open the door to see Jane singing like an idiot as usual. She does this every morning to wake me up ever since we join the S.H.I.E.L.D. mainly to annoy me with her sisterly love, but since Loki's arrival here, she kind of stop. So this is both usual and unusual.

"Why is Lady Jane singing like that?" Loki asks me from behind me.

"Let's say she's a morning person and I'm a night person," I explained, looking up to him. "Alight Jane," I speak up to her, walking towards her, "you caught our attention."

"Good," she giggles like crazy.

I know that it's out of character of what Jane appears to you, but this is the Jane that I grew up with. Playful, childish, and pretty much an annoying sister that you can't help but love. I facepalm at her child like actions as she skips to the elevator. Fortunately, Thor doesn't know this side of Jane and I hope to my Lord that he doesn't find out at all.

The three of us head downstairs to the dining room/kitchen area where I see everyone gather around. They give us their morning greetings, before either leaving or staying. I give hugs to Clint and Natasha since they have a mission together.

"Good luck on your mission," I smile to them.

"Thanks Alexandra," Natasha smirks.

"Make sure that this place is clean when we get home," Clint says with a chuckle.

I chuckle as well. With him being a husband and father, he treats me like another daughter which I don't mind at all. Natasha is like another sister to me and she loves it!

Tony and Bruce partners up for time to time while Iron Man mostly partners with his longtime best friend Rooney. Unfortunately, their partnership's in the lab to upgrade on new technology for everyone, which occasionally they will have me as their test subject.

Steve's my occasion partner when Thor is not around or a mission comes up for him and me. He's a good friend who I consider as another brother figure like the all of the gentlemen here. I always love the stories he tells me about his time back in the forties. Times were simpler which I love the most.

I begin cooking breakfast for me and Loki. He's reading a book that he receives from the breakfast bar. Oatmeal of different kinds with some fruit. I'm sure that Loki is open-minded to new food that are different from Asgardian food so I've decided to make something that I believe food was like when life was simplier.

"Are you hungry your highness?" I asked him with a smile, offering his food.

"Why yes Lady Alexandra," he smiles back softly, accepting it, "oats and fruits for this morning?"

"Yes, we call it oatmeal, which is mainly oats cooked with either water or water and some extra flavor. I always love the brown sugar one."

"Brown sugar?"

"Brown sugar is a spice that has a sweet taste, but not overpowering that sweetness."

He takes a bite of the oatmeal and by the look on his face, he appears to enjoy the food quite a bit.

We both finish our breakfast before Jane comes over to me.

"Can I talk to you for a sec Alexandra?" she asks, a little nervous.

Interesting. She's hardly nervous unless she's unsure about something.

"Alright Jane," I said to her, then turn to Loki, "please excuse me my prince I'll return."

"Okay Lady Alexandra."

My sister pulls me aside to talk to me.

"Thor and I were talking earlier," she begins, "we came up with a plan that involves with you and Loki."

"Which is?" I asked, confused with my arms across my chest.

"The whole day will be a double date for the four of us!"

"Excuse me?"

"Not like the four will be together throughout the whole day, but more like the two pairs of us will spend the day together like a date. And maybe when the night falls we can have the double date dinner to end the day perfectly."

I took a few moments to soak in the information she has give me. Thor and Jane are going on a big date today while Loki and I will do the same separately. So then tonight, we will get together for dinner.

"Let me ask Prince Loki and I'll send you a text about it."

"Alright, see ya later," she says, giving me a hug.

"Love you sis," I said, hugging her back.

"What does Lady Jane request for?" Loki asks me when I appear before him.

Now I'm nervous to ask him this. "Umm, your highness," I speak, really nervous.

"Yes Lady Alexandra, what is it?" he asked, concern.

"Would you like to spend the whole day with me like a date?"

He looks at me with what appears to be a happy look on his face. "I would love that Lady Alexandra," he speaks with the equal amount of happiness.

"Really your highness?" I asked shocked.

He chuckles, "yes Lady Alexandra, I would love to spend the day with you."

"Also, umm, tonight, Jane would like to have dinner with us and Thor."

His eyes darkens at the mention of his adoptive brother.

"It's called a double date."

"Well, I am going to be there to protect you if something happens."

I giggle at this. This is going to be an interesting day.
