Leah woke hearing some one moving around her room, there was an ache in her muscles of her apparent injuries. She sat up to see Loki's back as he moved around her room. She stared at him, this completely surprised her, she did not expect him to be here at all. She sat up a groaning as she moved to quickly, Loki turned around to face her before saying.

"You're in pain?"

"Its fine." She mumbled wincing slightly as she shifted "It will pass."

"You should have listened to my warning." He muttered sounding less than impressed continuing what he was doing. "I said you would get hurt, if you fought around us, that included hunting. It could have been worse than a spear to the shoulder."

"Thanks." Leah hissed sounding a little annoyed by the way he was acting. "What is it to you if I go fighting or hunting?"

"I don't want to see you hurt like you are now." He sat on the edge of her bed passing her a plate of food which she took looking at him questioningly. He just seemed to be staring at her with a concerned expression on his face. "You better eat to keep up your energy."

"Thank you." Leah repeated though it sounded more genuine this time looking at the meat, bread and cheese on the plate as her stomach rumbled.

"I'm going to leave you." He got up heading to the door.

"Don't go." Leah sighed looking up at him, she didn't really want to be on her own. "Fancy keeping me company?" She glanced up at him submissively. She knew it was a lot to ask of him but she just hoped he would stay.

Loki turned looking at her questioningly for a before taking off his jacket making Leah smile widely. Leah scooted over on her bed giving him space to sit beside her. He did so putting his feet up onto her bed and lounging back to sit. She picked at the food he had given her, once she had eaten her full he took the plate from her before handing a goblet of wine.

"Drink it will ease the pain." He said with a authoritative tone.

"Why do you care?" Leah looked down at the goblet of wine before back at him taking a sip of the wine. It actually tasted very good, better than one she had drank before.

Loki just looked at her as she slowly looked up at him not really sure she wanted to know considering the feelings which she was beginning to grow. He gently lent across and kissed her briefly, she just closed her eyes leaning into it as her heart rose, he pulled back saying.

"Do I need to say any more?"

Leah just shook her head, Loki put an arm around her letting her rest against him. She finished the wine, he was right the pain decreased, she also felt very drowsy as she slipped into a deep sleep again.

Leah woke to a bright light in her eyes, she felt the pillow she was using moved beneath. She closed her eyes for a moment before she heard a regular heart beat, moving her head slightly and looking up she saw her head was on Loki's chest. He was still fully dressed but fast asleep, his arms wrapped around her. She shifted slightly feeling that she was completely curled against him. Leah just stared at the site before her smiling, he stayed the night and didn't try anything. For some reason this meant the world to her, she knew it was stupid but her heart swelled just from this one action. She stayed where she was actually feeling good closing her eyes and dozing. She felt Loki's hand run up her side she moved her head to see his green sleepy eyes looking at her.

"Morning." He smiled at her.

"Hi." She looked at him staring. "This is a first."

"For me too." Loki added a smile appearing on his face.

"Really?" Leah raised her head at him staring in disbelieve. "You have never just slept with a woman?"

"Why would I want to do that?" He drawled sounding a little arrogant his genuine smile turning into a grin.

"So you're telling me that all the women you have ever slept with, you also had" Leah paused not really sure how to phrase it.

"Some form of sexual intercourse." Loki smirked as Leah blushed slightly looking away from him. "Yes. You're the first woman I have just slept with."

"Wow." She rolled onto her back and sat up a little cradling her injured arm the pain a lot less than the night before. She knew her body had probably completed its healing but there was still some tenderness around her shoulder which should pass in another 24 hours. "That says so much about you."

"Your disgusted?" Loki sat up a little beside her staring and assessing her.

"No disappointed." Leah said turning to look at him trying to be as honest as possible even though she knew it would hurt him in some way. "I didn't expect you to be like this."

"It was when I was younger." Loki sighed not meeting her gaze, but she could tell he was upset by her answer "I am trying to be honest with you. I am not that person any more."

"Why change?" She frowned

"because of you." Loki muttered before he quickly got up and picked up his coat. "Stay in bed, I will make sure breakfast is brought to you and please rest." He ordered her before leaving.

Leah just sat there stunned by Loki's words, she never thought she would be the main reason for him to change. She just lay there not really knowing what to think or say. She was completely shocked by his words.
