Chapter 21:
*Alexandra's POV*
The yummy taste of my lemonade meets my tastebuds. We finally got a hold of Jane and I am meeting her at a small cafe for brunch. The drink orders just arrived as I continue on waiting for her.
After being thirty minutes late, she finally arrived. No greeting, no words were spoken. Just simply we stare each other in an uncomfortable silence. Tension is so thick that you can slice it with a knife.
"Okay Jane," I broke the silence, "I am going to cut to the chase, out of all of the houses in the whole, wide world, why did you pick that house?"
"Because it's my dream home," she smiled, feeling proud of herself.
"No it's not," I said confused.
"Yes it is!"
"I know your dream home and that's not your dream home. What ever happened to our plans of living in a forest so we can get away from everything?"
"Hey a girl can change her mind."
"Jane," I sighed, pulling out the envelop with the sketches, "I love you and I don't want anything to happen to you." I give her the sketches. "These are sketches of the beings that are both haunting your home and influencing you. Father George is willing to help you."
As soon as I said the name of my 'guardian', she gave me a disgusting look. "There's no need for him," she speaks coldly.
This took me by surprise. Jane loves Father George like a fatherly figure like I do. So having her speak coldly of him was unnerving.
"Jane what is wrong with you?"
"Nothing's wrong with me!"
It becomes into a shouting fight. Little did we know, the whole team is watching from the tower.
*The Tower*
*No One's POV*
Tony let out a whistle before speaking, "they never fight like this."
"What are we going to do?" Natasha asked.
"Her behavior is worser than I thought," Father George sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose, "if she continues to be in denial, a death will occur."
"How can you be sure?" Pepper asked, worried for her friend.
"I have been on Alexandra's side for many years trying to keep positivity around her because she has a 'curse' on her."
"What kind of curse?" Bruce asked, catching his attention.
"She lost her biological parents at the age of three, making her an orphan. Jane's parents adopted her and made her life like hell until she was thirteen years old. Before Loki, everyone will say that she's so ugly and other unnessorites words. Basically when times seem to be positive, there's always some sort of negativity."
"Whoa," Clint speaks with widen eyes.
"Listen here Alexandra! There's nothing wrong with me and if you and the others continue…..you know what I don't want to be your sister anymore!" Jane's screaming made everyone to see the screen.
Alexandra sat there stunned as Jane storms off. Loki watches in fear to see his beloved princess about to break down. Thor feels his blood boiling inside, seeing this.
*Alexandra's POV*
Even well into the evening hours, the statement that Jane said is still fresh. I lost the last of my family because of that house. My nerves are shaking. Even though I have cried over things like this, tears will not come out. Am I in shock?
I am drinking some iced water while staring out New York City through the some large windows. The city became home since I was eighteen years old when I joined the team. Friends with people that I would never have thought I will become friends with. Especially with Thor and Loki. SInce childhood my knowledge of Norse mythology grew and grew, not knowing why. Now I know why, but still….
Will my life be better in Asgard? Or should I stay in Midgard hoping for the best? I am so confused!
"Lady Alexandra?"
Turning around, Thor and Loki stand there staring back.
"We were speaking with the team and we all agreed on something," Thor speaks up.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Everyone believes that you life will be better if you come with us to Asgard," Loki explains.
I dropped my drink and it shattered at my feet. "What?" I asked in shock.
"The end of Loki's punishment is growing near, so his fate will be named," Thor explained.
"Rather I get sentenced to death or the throne," Loki says softly, approaching towards me to hold hands with me, "Brother Thor and I will make sure you will become an immortal citizen of Asgard."
My eyebrows raise up at the new name for Thor. The corners of my lips curl up as I feel a few tears fall down. I nodded my head, accepting the offer. Loki smiles big, pecking my lips and hugs me tightly.
Thor joins in the hug, holding his siblings close.
