(A/N): New chapter! I know it's pretty short, but it's because the next one is going to be pretty long. XS

"Again, thank-you so much for coming, but I better be going." I said as I shook the babysitter's hand. The young woman smiles before turning her eyes on Jack and Elsa. Both were watching me as Elsa smiled and Jack sucked at his thumb.

"Where are you going, Loki?" Elsa asked as she tiled her head.

I released the babysitter's hand and focused on Elsa.

"I'll be home when you wake up in the morning, Darling. Just make sure you don't give this lady a hard time, yes?"

Elsa shook her head, still smiling. I gave the babysitter a nod for another thanks before heading for the door. Suddenly, I started to hear Jack beginning to cry. I turned back to face him, watching him reach his hands out and walk towards me. I was in shock. I never would have expected that from him.

"That's his way of saying he doesn't want you to go, Mr. Odinson. He seems to like the care you've been giving him." The babysitter explained.

I glanced at her, seeing her smile down at Jack.

"Then, what am I supposed to do?" I asked her.

"Pick him up, give him some love. Tell him you'll be back." The babysitter answered.

Jack grabbed my legs and looked up at me. Teary eyes and wet cheeks was what all I could see. I picked him up and slowly pulled him into a hug. Jack started to calm down, tightening his grip on the back of my shirt as I heard him sniffle away anymore tears.

"I-I'll be back, Jack. You will see me in the morning." I muttered as I stared at the babysitter.

She shows a warm smile and nods. "He must be tired too. Has Jack taken a nap at all today?"

"No. Not yet."

"Well, after I feed him, let him watch T.V., he should fall asleep."

"That's fine." I responded as I set Jack back onto the ground.

Jack looks back up at me, allowing me to wipe his cheeks with my thumbs before he tossed his own thumb back into his mouth. I waved to the kids and headed out the door, hearing both beginning to cry.

Deep down inside, I wanted to stay at home with them, but I've been waiting for the day that I'll get back onto my feet like I used to. And, Den was my attempt.


"Never thought I would go out with a man who works at a magic toy factory." Den said as she slurped up some of her soda.

I came to realize Den wasn't the fancy type when it came to attire and restaurants…she was more of Thor's type. Though, I couldn't keep my eyes off her. She was a gorgeous woman with a sense of humor not many would understand, and I loved it.

Den was wearing a simple purple striped flannel, black skinny jeans, and black tennis shoes. Her hair was down over her face, but her eyes were still glowing through.

"You know, you should push your hair behind your ears more often. It's hard to see your eyes." I said without realizing I spoke out loud.

Den was talking about something completely different when I did and started to laugh. I frowned and turned away, focusing my attention on the next customer in line for their order at the fast food restaurant Den had chosen.

"If you want me to." Den laughed while pushing her hair back and tied it into a long ponytail. On her right ear laid a grey dragon earing wrapped around her ear.

"You look magnificent either way, Den." I replied, facing her to show a smirk.

Den laughs to cover her blush I already noticed. I started to laugh with her when my phone started to ring. I got her attention about my phone before heading out the restaurant to answer it.

"Mr. Odinson?" I heard the babysitter ask.

"It's me. What's wrong?" I asked, frowning at the thought of what a babysitter could have done to the kids.

"It's your kids."

My breath hitched. "What happened?"

"…Are they known to make it snow from their bare hands?" She asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Mr. Odinson, you might want to see it for yourself."
