~ Chapter 12 ~

The days went by so fast. Days turned to weeks, and weeks soon turned into a month. Still their time together seemed to last far longer than that. All the time they spent together seemed to bring them closer to each other. During the weekdays when they had school, Loki and Thor met up after school for an hour or two in their classroom. After having given each other their virginity that night in Thor's room, they ended up having sex and working their way through the now worn and bruised box of condoms Frigga had given them. Even at school their appetite for each other seemed endless. The table they had used for their friendly talks and sketching had become their private spot where they enjoyed each other.

But everything wasn't perfect. Loki was still being rather reserved about coming out officially to either school or Thor's friends. He didn't feel comfortable just yet no matter how much he loved Thor. That had convinced his blond lover to keep his mouth shut unless he wanted to take the consequences of loosing Loki. So he restrained himself if - in a rare moment - he noticed Loki walk through the hall or other areas he and his friends were occupying.

However, the weekends tended to be more of a personal getaway where Loki came to stay at Thor's place. It had become a place where Loki felt safe, even Frigga's dotting had softened him up. Although they sought out the privacy of Thor's room many times, Loki also enjoyed talking with Thor's mother. Like the mother he had lost. His life had never been more peaceful or perfect than now.

The only thing that made Loki nervous was that Thor's father, Odin, was coming home for a few days. He knew little about the man other than what Thor and Frigga had told him to make him feel calm. It still didn't change the fact that he would soon meet the father of the family. A title he had learned to fear.

So it was that way, while feeling loved and unsure, the box of 50 condoms ended up with only eight remaining the day before Odin would return home.

The desk banged against the wall in a mix of moans and the sound of flesh slapping together. Thor held tightly onto Loki who had his legs high over his shoulders as Thor fucked him with everything he had.

Loki buckled against Thor's thrust as he pumped his own length until he reach climax and brought with him Thor over the edge. They rested against each other, trying to catch their breath as Thor slipped from Loki and the green, knotty condom barely hanged on. The tip filled with his seed.

They stared at each other before sharing a kiss and separating. Loki lay still on the desk for a while as Thor sat down on one of the chairs. Not even bothering to remove the condom as he leaned forward and touched Loki who looked absolutely delicious.

"What are you thinking about?" Thor had learned that unless he asked, Loki wouldn't share his thoughts with him.

"Just thinking about tomorrow." Loki confessed.

"Nervous?" Thor asked. Loki nodded. "You shouldn't be. My dad will adore you just the same as mom do."

"I know." he really tried to convince himself of this but he found it harder and harder that the governor would accept the son of a murderer for his own son.

"Hey!" Loki turned his head to look at Thor who smiled big at him. "Don't think about it too much. Everything will be just fine."

All Loki did was smile back.

"Don't worry." Thor whispered as they stood outside Thor's house. Odin's car in the drive in and the lights on in the living room where they could see a finely plated table stood. "He'll love you."

Thor tightened his grip before leading Loki to the door and inside.

Frigga came to meet them with a big smile and a hug. Soon after her came an elderly man with white hair and grim lines.

Loki immediately recognized the man as Odin from all the photos he had seen in the house. He put on his best smile as Thor presented them.

"Loki, this is my father Odin. Father, this is my boyfriend Loki." he smiled happily and didn't notice the strange mood that began to fall over them. Loki reached out his hand to shake Odin's.

"I'm Loki Laufeyson. It's a pleasure to met you, sir." Odin grunted a response while his eyes seized Loki up from head to toe. The reception was chilling.

"Well," Frigga tried to break the tension. "Dinner is ready so why don't we all go seat ourselves?" She lead Odin into the dinning room.

Thor came up next to Loki and placed his hand reassuringly on Loki's shoulder.

"Give him some time. He'll warm up."

He didn't. The whole dinner was a frosty affair and Loki could feel Odin's eyes on him the whole time. Not able to take it he cut his stay short and bid his farewell before dessert, just to get out of there. Thor bid his lover good night and gave him a kiss that begged for forgiveness before he closed the door.

"What the hell was that?" Thor demanded when he came back into the room where Odin still sat. Frigga had started to put away their plates.

"Language." She warned, but Thor just dismissed it.

"Do you have any idea how nervous Loki was meeting you? Mom and I had to calm him days before tonight that you are a nice person, and you give that shitty performance?" Frigga hissed. "What the hell do you have to say for yourself?"

Odin sat with his elbows on the table and rested his chin in his hands. He look off into space before focusing on Thor. "I want you to break up with that boy."

Thor's world froze. "WHAT?"

"He's not good for you." Odin continued.

"THAT'S BULLSHIT!"

"THOR! Language. DEAR! What's the meaning of this?" Frigga commanded when she couldn't take it anymore.

Odin was quiet for a while before he shook his head and stood up. "There are some things in this world that are not meant to be and this is one of them. Thor," he looked his son straight in the eyes. "Don't ever see Loki again. It's for your own good."

"NO! You can't decide that for me. I love Loki. I'm never going to leave him." Thor declared.

Odin slammed his hands against the table, making all remaining china and silver to quiver. "Listen to me," Odin said quietly. "You have to stay away from Loki. You can not stay together."

"For what reason? His family history?" Thor threw his hands out like the subject was an object. "You of all wouldn't judge someone based on that? Isn't that what you taught me?"

Odin made his way toward his shared bedroom with Frigga. "This is not open for discussion." he simply stated in a cold tone. "Never see that boy again."

Thor stood frozen when the door closed between them, ending their argument.

He couldn't believe his father had just said all that.

Thor ran to his room and slammed his door shut just to went some anger. He threw himself on his bed and was assaulted by the scent of Loki. It set his heart racing and he wanted to hold his boyfriend to make sure the other wasn't leaving him.

This had to be a nightmare.

He waited until all lights were out in the house before getting up and gathering the most important; phone, wallet, and a jacket. Thor then went to the window in his room and opened it.

With years of practice of sneaking out to meet his friends he climbed down the wall and landed smoothly on the grass underneath. He wasted no time at all getting going from the neighborhood and into town. He needed to see Loki.
