Author's Note: Well, here's chapter 9! :) And sorry I'm not doing frostiron...I'm not good in doing..Manxman couples. :\ I can never seem to get them right. Maybe, as a little nice present for you, I'll try my best and do a one shot of frostiron. :)

Chapter 9

TPOV


Sif watched as Thor gently wiped the blood from Loki's face. He was still out cold and she knew it'll be a while till he woke up again. He did this before when he was younger, but it only lasted a total of three weeks. He used a lot more this time though, and he didn't even have his full magic yet. She frowned, he needed to wake up soon.

Thor finished getting the blood off and carried Loki to the guest room. Fury had set it up for him while he got his brother cleaned up. He knew Loki won't like knowing that Thor undressed him and then re-dressed him, but Thor knew he doesn't like being in sweaty clothes. He carefully placed him on the bed and turned to see a curious Sif.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Nothing...just wondering...when is he going to wake up?" she asked, her voice sounding out her curousity.

Tho shrugged, "I'm not sure." he responded. "Perhaps...you could help me undress him and then redress him?"

Sif scoffed at the idea. "Like he would be so proud that a lady undressed him and redressed him!"

"Don't worry, I'll cover him up." Thor replied.

"Fine, but you promise?"

"Yes! Why would I want a lady to be...ah...just...let's go. Get this done and over with. Don't tell Loki though."

Sif smiled, "Well then...this is nice blackmail isn't it?" she said.

"Don't you dare." Thor growled.

"Try me."

Thor shook his head and chuckled. "You know, you and Loki aren't that different. Sure...you didn't go crazy and had a good life but still...you both love to blackmail people and not afraid to do it. You love tricking people...you guys are perfect for each other."

"I'm not dating Loki." Sif said, but her blush gave it away. "I don't trust him."

"But if you did...say he never did that...would you date him?"

"I-I...don't...do we need to talk about this? Plus, you're a man! I will not talk about my crushes with a man!"

"So you do like him?"

"No! I don't know!"

Thor laughed before gently sitting Loki up. "Okay let's get this done and over with."


~4 hours later~

Fury rushed to the screen, "Thor, when is Loki going to wake up?"

"I'm not sure, why?" Thor asked.

"Because...is that Malekith's ship?"

Sif and the warriors three, along with Thor, all stared at the screen. They nodded, "Yeah, that's his ship." Sif said.

"Shit, alright. We need to get ready...he's only an hour away from us. Get all the citizens underground." Fury ordered.

"Yes sir!" three guards said as they rushed off.

Thor frowned, "We can most likely hold him off, but that doesn't mean there's a hundred percent chance of him not coming for Loki. Loki's a crone...Malekith is power thirsty too and very revengeful. He's working for Thanos as well, so...this won't mix very well." Thor said.

"Alright, get the rest of the Avengers and get ready. I'll make sure Loki is guarded." Fury ordered.

"Alright, but Sif will help guard." Thor said, not leaving any room for complaints.

As they left, Sif stood there and looked at Fury. "You're not helping my guards guard Lo-

"Listen, I don't trust your guards. I know most of them hate Loki since he killed your special agent. Thor told me about that, by the way."

"Thought you didn't trust Loki."

"I don't but...doesn't mean I want him to suffer."

With that Sif turned and walked back to Loki's room. She was starting to feel like it was her duty to protect him. She didn't know why, but she felt like it. She wanted to make sure no one would hurt him. 'Is it because of these blasted feelings for him?' she wondered in her mind.

As the Avengers and the warriors three all rushed out to get ready for battle, Thor only walked behind. He was concerned for Loki and the fact that Malekith was here. He was here for Loki, he knew to kill him and his brother, he then frowned.

"Jane." he gasped.

"What?" asked Volstagg.

"Jane! I need to get Jane. She's not far from here." Thor said as he flew from the building.

"Does he ever leave room for conversation or questions?" Fandral asked.

Volstagg shrugged, "Sometimes...he is a strange and arrogant god."

"Oh, so now you agree with Loki?"

"Well yes, he hardly ever lets anyone explain something to him. He believes he's right all the time! Though he did learn a little from being banished. Just enough to become a king."

"I agree, he's mostly just arrogant though. Not strange." Hogan replied.

They all nodded as they followed the Avengers. When they got outside, they could see everyone moving. Guards from Shield were ordering them to go through a tunnel that was towards the left. Fury walked out and sighed. "We're not sure where Malekith is going to go from where he landed. He's not far though, go left out of the city. He's an hour away." Fury said.

"We're walking?" Natasha asked.

Fury looked at her like she had two heads, "No, I'm giving Steven the keys since I trust him."

"What's wrong with us driving?" Clint asked.

Fury sighed, "You're a phycotic driver, I just don't trust Tony, Natasha...she's better for shooting out of the car, I highly doubt that these warriors from Asgard know how to drive a car. and...Banner might get road rage and turn into the Hulk in the car." he explained.

"Yeah...I didn't know what a car was..." Volstagg admitted.

Steven took the keys, "Alright, let's go. Where's the car?"

"In front of you."

"Oh the black SUV, cool."

They all got into the car as Steven started it. "Left out of the city." he said. "Let's go join in on the party."


~Meanwhile...Sif~

As Sif walked towards the hallway that lead to Loki's room, she thought about how she's been acting. She knew she kept going on and off about loving Loki then hating him. She frowned, 'I just want to know if I love him or not!' she thought to herself.

'Love who?' Loki's voice sounded.

'Loki? Get out of my head. Perv'

'I'm not trying to be a perv, but your thoughts are loud.'

'Are you using magic?'

'No, why?'

'Then how-

'I set a spell accdiently when I was 121, it lets me hear the thoughts of others when I'm not focusing on anything. At least I'm not bored.'

'You're sound asleep though.'

'Well kind of...I can only hear what's in others' minds. I can speak, open my eyes or anything. But I did black out for a bit. What happened? Why am I in a bed?'

'How do you know you're in a bed if you don't have your eyes open?'

'I can feel it..'

'Oh...yeah...well Thor undressed you and redressed you and put you in the bed. Now I have to guard the door with the idiot behind me.'

Sif glanced at the guard behind her, he looked at her. "What?" he asked.

"Nothing, stop staring at me." Sif said.

'He wasn't-

'Shut it! I needed an excuse, you could have helped me!'

'Well you didn't ask.'

'Oh so now I have to ask for your help? You're such a gentleman.' she thought sarcastically.

'Well, you aren't every lady like either.'

'Get out of my head...I feel like I'm going phyco.'

'Well technically you are...you are talking to yourself in your head.'

'Shut up.'

Loki chuckled before she didn't hear his voice again. She sighed in relief when they got to Loki's room. She stood in front of the door. The guard was about to open it but she slapped his hand away.

"You guard out here, I'll guard inside." she said.

"But I-

"No, I'll guard inside. That's final."

The guard frowned and glared at her. She glared back, "Don't glare at me, mortal." she hissed.

His eyes went wide with shock before she opened the door and slammed the door in his face.

'Loki, your magic better be back soon.'

'Worried?'

'No! I'm working with an idiot mortal who thinks he has the right to glare at me!'

'Um...Sif...he does. It isn't a law...'

'Who asked you?'

'Well you told me.'

'I didn't ask for your opinion.'

'You don't need to.'

She could tell that he would most likely shrug when he said that. She frowned as she stared at Loki. He was perfectly still, his breaths coming out normally, his eyes weren't open. She walked up to the bed and then walked around the room. She observed her surroundings as she kept guard.

'So, you can't move either?' she wondered.

'Nope, but my arms and legs are stiff and my back is going to hurt.'

'Old man.'

Loki chuckled. 'Sure. It's from when Thor slammed me into that rock when I...um...attacked Midgard.'

'Of course he did. Well, you attacked.'

'Yes, I know. I am truly sorry for that...I'm not trying to be evil again.'

Sif sighed, 'I know...'

'So...why don't you trust me? Is it because I lie?'

'Not only that, but you betrayed Thor!'

'Yeah...your boyfriend.'

'Boyfriend? No, I don't love him. He's just a close friend of mine.'

'Then who were you thinking about when you were thinking about your feelings fro him?'

'No one...'

'Oh, I get it. It's a girl secret.'

'Yes, now don't talk about it. He'll know soon enough, he's really smart.'

'I bet.'

'Go back to sleep, idiot.' she laughed.

'Fine.'

After she was sure he was asleep, she sat down and sighed. She wanted to tell Loki it was him, but she couldn't. "Guess I do have feelings for him." she mumbled. She smiled, "I like it."


Author's note: Okay, so Sif is finally starting to get it and actually...for once...had a nice conversation with Loki. I know he's supposed to be sleeping, but I'm not going to write about how she sat there staring at him the whole time. It sounded boring to me. And yes, that guard is going to cause some trouble. That's the only spoiler I'm giving you.

Well, sorry for any mistakes! And if it sounded rushed or confusing! Please review! :) or fav or follow. :p
