Tia and Loki have some fun.. unaware someone is watching.

Tia watches the sun rise from behind the silhouette mountain. She always loved watching the sunrise and sunset in Asgard but here seemed to be even more beautiful. She crosses the field to get a better look and sits at the foot of a large oak tree.

"I think we need to talk."

"You're probably still drunk from last night so why not leave it a few hours." Tia replies, continuing to watch the silhouette mountains become clear once more.

"Tia you have been in a foul mood since we left Asgard, you refuse to drink anymore and you snap at everyone who tries to talk to you." She hears Loki growl out.

"Maybe I'm just not in the mood to do certain things. Not everything is about you Loki and sometimes some people have other things on their mind!" She shouts, snapping her head towards Loki. Tia watches him sit beside her with a frown.

"I know not everything is about me but you can talk to me when something is wrong."

Tia feels the tears blur her vision. "You would hate me." She whispers, turning away from him. "I have so many secrets, I have so many things I want to tell you but I can't and now they are building up and they are all I can think about.."

"Then just tell me! I could never hate you." She feels a hand gently caress on her shoulder and a pair of lips kiss her neck. "I love you and once we are home I can properly show you."

"What do you mean?" Tia faces him. Green meeting green.

"I'm going to have a word with father and see if I can get my marriage annulled."

"How is he Heimdall?" Queen Frigga asks.

Heimdall looks out towards Alfheimr, he sees two lone figures in a field doing- "He's well my Queen."

"What is he doing?"

"He's currently.." Heimdall thinks for a moment. Currently having sex with Tia. Currently cheating on his wife. "Him and Tia are taking a tour of the Alfheimr palace grounds."

"Oh good. I'm glad he has Tia with him, she will keep him in line like she always has." Frigga exclaims, a wide smile spreading across her porcelain face. "She honestly is the best thing in his life sometimes."

"I will update you if anything comes up." Heimdall replies, smiling at the Queen before looking towards Tia and Loki again. How are they going to explain this?

Tia lies flat on her back, chest heaving and a smile spreading across her face. "I don't think you have ever been that passionate in a long time Loki.."

She hears Loki sigh before a hand is placed on her stomach causing her to freeze. "I just felt this.. pull.. like you were pulling me towards you and suddenly I was having the best orgasm of my life."

"Well I'm not complaining because the sex lately has been out of this world." Tia replies, reaching for her dress and putting it on.

"At least that's something we can both agree on.."

"About earlier.." She starts but Loki silences her with a finger to her lips.

"I know you have been under pressure lately and a lot has happened especially with Brenya going missing so I understand that you haven't been yourself lately.. just talk to me in future though." Loki replies, placing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "Now, I have a meeting with the ambassador for Alfheimr so I will see you at dinner."

Tia watches him walk away using his magic to dress himself. She places a hand on her stomach and sighs. "How am I meant to leave him little one?"

Hours pass and Tia feels the familiar bout of nausea coming over her again. She decides to put down her book and retire for the night, missing dinner in the process. Tia had actually been enjoying a book in one of the upper floor libraries. She loves that they have at least three small libraries in this Palace and that they are all packed full of books from across the Nine Realms.

Tia reluctantly makes her way back to her room for a long bath. Maybe that will help with the morning sickness, if you can even call it that.. it's more like all day sickness, she thinks to herself.

As she relaxes into the warm water she thinks about how much Brenya would love this place. The golden walls, the libraries and the vast landscapes that allow you to walk for hours without even realising it. She misses her best friend. Growing up Brenya was always the popular one while Tia was more reserved especially when it came to feelings but somehow, in the midst of being shipped off to work they became friends and that friendship has only grown stronger the past few years. They would do anything for each other.

Maybe that's their problem.
