I got this one up relatively quickly! Yay! Please enjoy this installment of "We Just Had To Go Camping!"

"Trix are for kids!"

Chapter 6

(3rd person narrative)

As Izzy shrugged her way back inside the cabin, Loki had taken his place at the table waiting patiently to see if she would join him or not. There was a feast laid out on the table, and Izzy couldn't wrap her head around how Loki had managed to procure this meal within a five minute time frame.

'This was probably here earlier and I just didn't notice. Yeah, that's it. Or he had it all prepared but it just wasn't on the table. Yeah, it's got to be something like that.'

Izzy's head was telling her go back to the room, but her stomach was telling her otherwise. She stopped abruptly. Loki noticing her distress, stood up and walked over to where she was.

"May I help you?"

"Nope."

"Are you sure?"

"Yep."

"Positive?"

"Uh huh," Izzy nodded.

Loki, finding her behavior odd took a moment to think over why she was behaving so. He realized what was tormenting her.

"May I suggest something?"

-silence-

"I shall assume that your silence was a reassuring yes. If you feel so uncomfortable about dining with me, you don't have to. I shall have food brought to your room."

Loki, watching the wheels in her head turn, knew that she would concede to that.

Izzy nods, and as she departs for her room, is stalled by Loki's voice.

"Wait a moment maiden..."

"Yes?" Izzy responds without turning back.

"I do hope that this situation won't hinder our friendship."

"What friendship?"

Loki was hurt by that, not that he would ever admit to it.

Izzy shakes her head, and makes her way back to the room. Once there, she notices a table filled with food.

'How in the hell did he get this here without my noticing?! "Silly rabbit,"...'

"Trix are for kids", Izzy says with a smile and a shake of her head.

As Loki seats himself at the table he hears a "thank you" come from the back of the cabin. He smiles, yet he shakes it away.

'This maiden is just a means to an end, nothing more.'

Hello All! I hope you enjoyed this installment, and I hope to have another one up soon (keywords: hope and soon). I'm also testing out a theory that if I write shorter chapters I'll update sooner...we shall see. Anyways...thanks for reading, please review, and I love y'all!
