Hi.
Loki
My cell rang nice and early, dragging me from my sleep. My hand smacked the phone, sending it to the floor. I cursed and ran my fingers over the carpet till I found it. Placing it to my ear, I muttered, "What?".
"Is that any way to speak to your father?" A deep voice rumbled over the line. Shit. Dad. My eyes flew open and I sat up.
"Oh uhh hi Dad." I stammered out, running a hand through my hair. Bruce groaned on the other side of the room and turned over.
"Hello Loki. Are you still asleep at six in the morning? What about class?" Dad asked, I could hear something in his tone.
"Classes don't start till eight, Dad." I informed him, laying back. He made a humph sound.
"Well, I'm not paying for you to skip class and read all day." He informed me.
"Yes sir." I had no idea how to reply to that. I heard some papers shuffle on the other end. "So, was there any reason behind this call or, was it just to wake me up?" I nudged the conversation along, hoping I can get back to sleep. Being out with Tony till one didn't help my cause.
"Oh! Right, I was calling to inform you that I would by flying in in two days to visit Thor and you. See how you both were doing and such." He explained, a cheeriness peaking in his tone. Oh wonderful.
"That's great Dad! Can't wait to see you and Mom." I missed Mom very much. She was the one I went to while Thor ran to Dad.
"Oh, no Frigga isn't coming this time. She has some business to attend to. You know how it is, son." Dad chuckled. What? Mom's not coming?
"Oh. Okay." I mumbled.
"Don't worry, I'll send her your love." Dad reassured me. "See you soon son."
"See you soon, Dad." We hung up. I tossed my phone on the night table and laid there for a long time, trying not to panic.
Tony
Dad was in worse health then ever, the doctors had said. Only a matter of time now. I was sitting by his bedside, watching his frail chest move up and down. Nurses swept in and out, most eyeing me like candy, before moving out. I wanted to have Loki here so I could hold his hand and show them I was taken, sort of. Only a week had past since our agreement and it was killing me. I wanted him already, to claim him as mine. I understand wanting to do a trail to see how it works but, it's driving me up a tree.
"Tony?" A woman's voice asks from the door. I look up to see Pepper. I groaned and ignored her. "Tony, you had a meeting today." She snapped at me. I shrugged. "You can't shrug this stuff off Tony! You have responsibility to this company and you need to grow up." She raged, stalking further into the room.
"Potts, relax. It was just one little meeting." I dismissed her. She glared at me, her blue eyes ablaze.
"Just one little meeting? None of these meetings are just one little meeting, Tony! When are you going to realize this?" She cried, throwing her hands up.
"When I die." Dad croaked out. We whirled to see his eyes barely open.
"No Dad, you won't die." I grabbed his frail hand. It started to make me panic.
"Sir, I have the reports for th-"
"Shut up about the company for one second would you?!" I exploded, spinning to glare at her. "That's all you ever rant about, Potts, company this, company that, other things are important! When was the last date you had? When did you last go to restaurant for yourself and not the company? Vacation? Huh?" I asked, standing and looming over her. She jutted her chin out and glared at me.
"I don't need to answer to you, Tony." She said in a calm voice. Show emotion. My brain urged, I wanted her to fight back. She wouldn't give me that satisfaction though.
"Children, play nice." Dad smirked, waving a frail hand. Pepper sighed and I stuck my tongue out at her. "Now, Pepper what was it you were saying?" He turned towards her, ready to hear her reports. Pepper sneered at me and went to sit by his side.
"Well sir, the reports say-" I walked out to wander. I wandered down to the cafeteria, hoping they had some pie this time. Yay pie. I grabbed a slice, paid for it and slumped in a table. Halfway through my pie, my cell rang.
"Yo?" I mumbled through a mouthful of pie.
"Hi Tony." Loki purred over the line. I quickly swallowed the giant clump of chocolate mess in my mouth.
"Hey Loki, what's up?" I asked, trying not to cough.
"Nothing, just seeing what you were doing tonight." His voice was light and airy.
"Ohh I was thinking about watching some movies, popping some corn and such. What are you doing?" I asked, swinging my legs.
"Hmm I was thinking the same thing. Hey, why don't we do it at the same time?" I could hear his grin.
"Sounds like a date." I told him, taking another bite.
"Perfect. Well, I got an essay to type see you later." Loki said.
"Later darling." We hung up and I finished my pie. I put the plate on the automatic dish washy thingy and went up to Dad's room. He was still speaking with Pepper, papers scattered all over the bed. "Hey Dad, I was just heading out." I called into the room.
"Alright son. Love you." He smiled and waved at me.
"Love you too." I waved and left, going to get ready for Loki to come over.
So, Odin is coming soon. And, another movie date yay. Review if you wish.
