A few months had passed in the realm of Asgard since my accident. I'd made amends with my parents and I was back out adventuring like I normally would be but my routine had changed slightly. I would meet Thor at the front of the Hall of Asgard every morning without fail still. He would still explore with me and help me discover new places but now we would sit and talk amongst the greenery and wildlife. We would now sit and embrace our surroundings and talk about what we like to do. We'd sometimes play fight and he's always win. We would play hid and seek and he could always never find me. Things Thor said wouldn't hurt too much. It was great to know that id finally found a friend that I could connect with. Even his family had started to like me more. But the thing was, I started to have strange feelings for Thor, more that friendship feelings, I drove me insane because I didn't know if he liked me back or not. I'd sit in my room some nights crying because I couldn't be sure I he did or not. It wasn't until we where walking back to the Hall of Asgard one day, that I realised my life was going to change for the good.

We walked slowly back up to the Hall of Asgard today, we'd just had a tense verbal fight over new exploration places and it was now getting awkward. I looked up at Thor when we got to the steps. He sighed.

"I'm sorry Emi; I didn't mean to start that fight with you… It's just my father is now wondering if all this adventuring its good for us, we could get hurt… I don't want you to get hurt again" he muttered. I sighed.

"Its ok I guess… it just upset me that's all and thank you, no-ones ever said that to me" I smiled lightly. He embraced me as we begun to walk up the steps. As we reached the top I felt Thor's fingers brush against mine and butterflies invaded my stomach. It hurt slightly and I winced. Thor noticed.

"Emi? Are you ok?" he whispered. I looked up at him and the butterflies struck again, I pushed it aside this time.

"I'm fine. Just a little tired that's all" I smiled. He just nodded and we began walking again. A voice then came from behind us.

"Emi my dear!" the voice of Thor's Mother, Frigga. We both turned around to see her pacing up to us.

"May I borrow you a second? Alone?" she chirped. I looked at Thor and he nodded, leaving us alone.

"Emi, its come to my attention that your exploring with my son everyday now, I'm not saying that's a bad thing… but I'm begin to think something is happening between the two of you… after you leave at night, Thor doesn't stop talking about you…" she whispered. I sighed. I was the same, my parents where thrilled to find out about my friendship with Thor but they got bored of my talking about him.

"It's true… I do like Thor… a lot actually… but I don't know if he likes me at all…" tears began to well up in my eyes. Frigga shushed me.

"Look do you want my advice?" she whispered. I nodded. "Tomorrow when he goes to meet you, don't turn up, stay at home. If Thor comes to look for you then you'll know your answer… now go back to him now as tell him we talked about properly meeting your parents" she smiled at me.

"Ok thank you Frigga" I smiled lightly before running off to join Thor once more.

I did what Frigga told me to do the next morning; I stayed in bed much to my parent's surprise. I got up late and walked to where my parents where seated.

"You not meeting Thor today?" my father questioned. I sighed.

"Not today" I moaned. My mother stared at me in complete shock. She stood shakily and pulled me aside to my room. She sat down on the edge of the bed carefully and gestured me to sit next to her. I follow suit.

"Emi, why aren't you meeting Thor?" she questioned worry edging her voice. I sighed again.

"Its something Frigga told me to do… Mother… I'm in love with Thor and Frigga suggested that if I didn't meet Thor today, that I'd know if he even liked me back because he would come to see if I was alright…" I was cut off by a knock at the front door.

"Get back into bed and pretend to be asleep" My mother ordered as she walked out. I then her faint muffled voices coming from downstairs. I could hear Thor's voice. I sighed with joy. He had come for me. I then remembered my mother's words as I heard foot steps coming up the stairs. I dashed back into bed, shut my eyes and I almost flinched as my bedroom door opened. I heard a faint sigh come from behind me as my bed dropped slightly as someone sat beside me.

"You scared me Emi…" Thor's voice was as smooth as velvet. I felt his hand touch my cheek. I heard him sigh once more.

"You look so peaceful when you sleep" he chuckled. I then felt his lips move to my ear.

"I didn't know how to tell you this Emi but… I love you… I don't know why or how it happened but I know it true" his voice flowed though me like music. I felt the weight of the bed return to normal and my door close. I rushed out of my bed and towards my door. I heard the front door closed and I bolted for that too.

"Emi!" I heard my mum shout as I shot past her. I need to talk to him. I opened the front door to see him walking away; I needed a place to talk to him… but where? My head chose the Bifrost Bridge, one of my favourite places to relax. I had to get him there without him asking questions. I needed him to chase me there. I slammed my front door which caught his attention.

"Emi?" he strutted. I shifted my weight and started to run towards the Bridge, I could sense him chasing me as I could hear the footsteps behind me.

"Emi!" I heard him shout again. The tears began to flow now as his words finally took effect.

I was half way down the bridge when he caught up and stopped me. By then the tears where flowing fast. I wouldn't face him.

"Emi? What's wrong?" he sighed, out of breath. "You heard me talking to you at your house… didn't you?" I nodded, tears still flowing

"Oh Emi…" he whispered as he pulled me into his arms. I held on as hard as I could. Once he let go he took a few steps back. He placed a hand on my soaked cheek.

"Why are you crying Em's" he muttered. The tears wouldn't stop.

"I'm sorry Emi… I would have said it to you in person but I was scared what people would have thought… I'm meant to be the god of thunder, powerful… but when I'm with you everything changes… You drive me insane Emi… More that anyone else had that I've met… you mean a lot to me and if I'd have told you this and lost you because of it I'd don't know what I'd do…" he stuttered again. I turned to face him, tears still flowing from my eyes.

"If I didn't like you back then I wouldn't be crying" I whispered, eyes glued to the floor. I tore them away to look into Thor's. He looked shocked. Before I knew it, his arms where wrapped around me and his lips where pressed eagerly to mine. His lips where soft and gentle up against mine. I felt his hand slip into my hair and pull me closer. We stayed like that for what felt like an eternity. I felt him pull away eventfully and I looked into his ocean blue eyes.

"I've waited for that for so long" he muttered, slightly out of breath. I smiled weakly.

"Well you don't have to wait any longer" I only just manage to choke out. He smiled as pressed his lips to mine once more. I'd fallen in love for the first time and I would never regret it… would I?...
