Thor and Jane have been going out for two months, she also continued to tutor him. As Thor spent more time with Jane, both his friends and family noticed a change in him. He was no longer going out to parties, his grades were going up. Jane had changed him and everyone was happy
Well, not everyone Loki was still pining for Jane .Despite developing a strong, stable friendship with her, Loki was nowhere near winning her heart. It was killing him on the inside, he needed her. He thought if he got close to her she would fall for him. It didn't work, he just wished there was a way to get her far away from Thor. God damn his stupid brother
''Loki'' Jane called as he walks out of School.
''Oh Hey Jane'' He smiled at her, even though her feelings for him were only platonic, it still made him happy that they had a relationship at all. Instead of him admiring from afar and trying to talk to her.
''So what are you doing tonight?'' she asks him
''Probably gonna just stay in, why you ask?" Jane lets out a sigh of relief
''Thank god you will be there, Thor invited me over to watch this sports game with his friends and I couldn't say no to him. But at least I can just hang out with you and not be bored out of my mind'' She tells him and he smiles at her. She wants to spend time with him, and not watch the game with Thor. It made him feel all giddy inside
''Oh yes, of course. I'd like that'' he tells her and she smiles at him
Thor walks over to them ''Jane, great news I got a B on my English test!'' He tells her while being clearly proud of himself ''Thor, that's wonderful'' She smiles at him and he picks her up and spins her around, then he kisses her. Loki twitched a bit while seeing them like this, at moment like these he realized how much Jane cares about Thor. Maybe someday she'll look at him like that.
No, he thought not someday. He would not doubt it ; he could not doubt it, or he would run mad.
''Thor, I am so proud of you'' she says and he smiles at her ''And it's all because of you''
''Oh get a room'' Loki says to them while rolling his eyes. They both laugh
''Oh Jane, do you need a ride?'' Thor asks
''Uh, nah, I think I'll just walk'' She says with a shrug. In truth, she didn't feel that comfortable with Thor driving, he wasn't the most careful driver in the world.
''You sure? I don't want you to walk alone'' He says, and she smiles. She liked that he worried for her, it was sweet. Even though she didn't need anyone looking after her
''I'll walk her home'' Loki says and Jane smiles at him
''Thank you, Loki'' Thor says to Loki and then kisses Jane's hand ''See you tonight, my dear Jane Foster''
''See you tonight'' She says with a smile and Thor walks off to his car
Jane turns over to Loki ''You know you don't have to walk me home''
''I know, I want to'' He tells her and she sighs ''Well alright ''
As they started to walk in silence Loki takes a deep breath ''So it's getting pretty serious with you and my brother''
Jane blushes ever so slightly and shrugs ''Yeah, I mean he's pretty cool. I like him a lot and I think he likes me a lot, so it's nice''
''I'm glad'' Loki says while twitching slightly
''But sometimes I wonder'' she starts
''Wonder what?'' He asks
''If he still has feelings for Sif'' She says while looking at her feet
''What makes you say that?'' Loki asks, though it was clear Sif still had feelings for Thor. She had always loved his brother. They were childhood friends and then teenage lovers. Loki was confused why they broke up, Their parents loved Sif and they always seemed to get along.
''Well, just the longing stares they give each other, and the fact that she actually did the nasty with him. While I want to wait'' She tells him and Loki couldn't help but laugh
''What?'' She asks
''The fact that you called sex 'the nasty' '' He says and she chuckles
'' Whatever'' she says, but is smiling
''But do you really think Thor still likes Sif, just because she is willing to do as you refer as the nasty'' He says, Loki is sure that Thor is even stupider than he thought that he would even think of Sif when he is with Jane
''It's not just that, She is beautiful and smart. She likes sports like Thor, and they have so much history. I can never compare to her'' Loki was shocked to hear such words. Could she not see that Sif will never compare to her? Jane was perfection and Sif to him was just Thor's ex
''How could you say that? You're the one who changed, Thor, he was a dumb jock. He changed ever since he started dating you'' He just realized that he is convincing her to keep dating Thor when he could convince her that he still loves Sif and she would leave him. Stupid, stupid, stupid he thought
''you're right, I am just acting like a crazy girlfriend'' She chuckles
''Or you know he still meant love Sif'' He says
''yeah ok, will bye Loki'' She says and walks in her house

Jane was getting ready to go watch the game with Thor and his friends. Well, she was really just going to talk with Loki, sports never interested her
She knocked on and Loki answered ''Oh hey Jane'' he said while letting one hand run through his hand
''Hello Loki''
''Jane! Oh good you are just in time for the game'' Thor said with a smile
''Oh great'' She said and gave Loki a look that said 'get me out of here', Loki smirked at her
''Um, actually Jane, I am having some trouble with my Math homework. I would love some help'' He lies
''Oh of course, is that cool Thor?'' she asks and he smiles ''Of course, Jane is a wonderful teacher'' Jane smiles at Loki and they both go to his room
''So, Loki and Jane are pretty close?'' Bruce asks and Thor nods with a grin
''I'd be worried that he'd steal her from you'' Bruce says
''What?'' Thor asks
''Oh come on someone like Loki isn't going to get the girl from a guy like Thor'' Steve said with a chuckle
''Yes, Jane and I are good together. Nothing will happen between her and Loki'' Thor says with a chuckle and Bruce shrugs

Loki had to hide his photo of Jane that was on his nightstand. He hide it under his bed, she couldn't find out how in love/obsessed he was with her
''So where are your parents?'' She asks, noticing that they weren't home
''My mom is out buying food, and Odin is working'' He tells her as he sits on his bed
''Odin? Isn't he your dad?'' She asks
''No, he isn't, he is an asshole who favored Thor over me'' Loki said while gritting his teeth
'' Thor mentioned you were adopted'' She tells him
''When they were having their second child, my mother had a miscarriage and she was so upset. They ended up adopting a child so they wouldn't go through that pain again, though Odin never looked at him as his son. Thor was his favorite and he wouldn't always compare us. God, I hate him''
''That must be really hard'' She says while sitting down next to him
''I guess I just realized I will never compare to Thor''
''That's not true!'' She tells him and he stays silent
''here's a of a girl, who grew up lost and lonely. Thinking love was something that was just made up for fairy tales, and trouble was made only for me'' She tells him
''I was always alone and abused when I grew up in foster homes. I was unwanted, but every time I felt bad for myself, I had to remind myself that Anytime you're hurt there's one
Who has it worse around'' she says and adds ''and that you can never give up hope''
''So keep your head up Loki'' she says and they both looked at each other. They both started to lean in and then she stopped herself
''You know it's just how life is'' She says awkwardly and Loki mutters ''yeah''
So close. He thought to himself
