I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Loki-kun was delusional or something. About everything, actually. About him being a God, about a weird book, about everything.
As I complained, though, there was this very tiny, low, microscopic voice inside my head cheering. I was Loki's wife, yay! But I wouldn't allow myself to be happy. I had no right to be happy. So I shook my head quickly and sat back on the bench. I sighed and looked at Loki, with a calm expression.
"I'm not your wife!!" I shouted all of a sudden. "Ok. I'm calm now. Please, explain." I finished, taking a deep breath and acting more seriously.
"I already did. And the point is not that. This cannot be changed, if it's really true." Loki said. "If you're destined to be my wife... we'll have to deal with that. But... I'd never think you hated my that much." Loki made one of his 'look I'm cute' faces, and I knew he was doing that on purpose. But how could I resist?
"Neee, Loki-kun!!" I said, shaking my arms around quickly. "That's not what I meant! I like you very much! But I'm not sure if I would be able to be your... you know... wife."
"Not now, but perhaps in the future you will be." he grinned and got up. "Let's go." Loki started walking down the street as if nothing had happened!
"What do you me 'Let's go'?!?! You act as if everything was alright!" I shook my hands on the air nervously. Loki kept walking as if he hadn't even heard what I said.
I sighed and started walking too. Not much time later we were already arriving Loki's mansion. By that point I was thinking better about the whole wife thing. Maybe it wasn't such as a bad idea as I thought.
I liked Loki very much. No... I loved him so much! Why not? If he wasn't against having me as a wife maybe I could make him see how wonderful and pretty I was.
Loki opened the mansion's gate and stepped aside to let me in too.
"Loki-kun... I was thinking... maybe we could try this." I said, not thinking much before speaking.
"Really?" his eyes widened, almost in shock.
"Yeah. Let's go on a date. What do you think?" I suggested. Oh, a date! What a great idea I had. More chances of being embarrassed and blush like crazy. Oh, let me just remind you that Loki had this the looks of a 9 year old kid. But I, for some reason, was hoping he said yes.
"I like the idea. Let's go watch a movie tomorrow, and then we can go shopping... and stuff." Loki said, grinning.
"Wow, Loki-kun. 'Never thought you'd be the one giving ideas of how spending the day." I commented, sweatdropping.
"I have experience with this things."
"Oh, it's true! I forgot you were actually older." I said, sticking out my tongue. "You must have gone out with many women..." I was saying that expecting a 'yes', but deep inside I was feeling even kind of jealous and hoping for a 'no'.
"Not really." YESSSS!!! "We usually only had sex." NOOO!!!!
"Loki!!!" I shouted, poking his face. "You pervert!"
* * *
It was 5 PM, yet I was already picking my clothes. After many combinations (23, to be precise) I found the perfect one: a long blue skirt, blue shoes, a white short sleeved shirt and a blue pullover. I let my hair down as usual.
Papa knocked once on the door and walked in, even before I could answer. He opened his mouth to speak but quickly closed it.
"Why wasting your good looks with that boy on the front door?" Papa asked.
"You just don't like him because he is from the Enjaku Detective Agency." I said.
"What? No... he's a lot older than that brat."
"What?!" I ran to the front and opened it with all my strength. I looked down but... just legs. Then I looked up and... there was an older looking someone right over there. He waved. No, that couldn't be Loki-kun. His hair was darker, and he was older. "Loki... how?"
"I broke the spell." he said. His voice was so much different! It looked nothing like his regular one.
"Wait... why didn't you break the spell before, then?" I asked, raising one of my eyebrows.
"I didn't feel like it. Now, let's go." he gave me his hand, but I didn't take it. "Let's go, Yamato Nadesico."
'Loki' quickly covered his mouth.
"KAITOU-SAN?!" I exclaimed. "What are you doing dressed up as Loki?"
"DAMN!!!!" I heard a female voice curse. From the bushes emerged Freya, wearing a long pink wig. "Onii-sama!! You ruined everything! And I worked so hard to master the spell to change my face to look like hers and... YOU DO THAT!! BAKAAA!!!" she yelled, hitting him with the first rock she found.
"Ouch!!" Freyr complained.
"I never thought you'd so such a thing, Freya." the real Loki said, walking toward us.
"I-It wasn't me!!" Freya protested, turning back into Reiya. Loki sweatdropped.
"Yeah, sure it was not." Loki rolled his eyes. "Let's go, Mayura?"
Loki stepped beside me and Freyr just kept staring at us. He blinked a few times, trying to understand the situation. He pointed to me and then to Loki.
"Yamato Nadesico is going out with Lokinanoda?" he asked. I nodded. Freyr burst into tears. "You can'tnoda!!!" Freyr grabbed my legs. I sweatdropped and tried to make him let go.
"Kaitou-san... er... Kaitou-san... let go, please." Loki grinned.
"She's my future wife, you know?" Loki whispered into Freyr's ears. He jumped quickly.
"Noooo!!! Yamato Nadesico can'tnoda!!! But I'll fight for Yamato Nadesico!!" Freyr raised his fist into the air and called for his faithful pig, and they left.
"You have a flying pig and can't call her by her name..."
"I, on the other hand, am I lot prettier than she is. I have bigger breasts!" Freya comment. Loki rolled his eyes.
"You slept with 4 dwarves to get a necklace. And you slept with all the other Gods too." I pointed out, wicking.
"That's mythology, you pink haired bitch!!" Freya shouted.
I just looked at Loki with the corner of my eye and we left without another word. Freya was too busy complaining to notice anyway.
* * *
The first thing Loki and I did was expected. We walked down the streets looking to opposite directions until we got to the shopping mall. There we went shopping, of course.
"Where you want to go first?" Loki asked, not speaking very loud.
"Well..." I looked around me, until I found a store that called my attention. "ALIEN PLUSH!! AND LOOK, A KAPPA PLUSH TOO!!"
I ran toward the store, Loki running right behind me. I entered and started picking different kinds of 'plushies'.
"Alien, kappa, vampire, chupacabra... yeah, I've got all of them." I said, smiling.
"They're 3000¥ ($30.00) each, Mayura." Loki pointed to the price tag. My eyes filled with tears. Loki rolled his eyes and got the 'plushies' and went with me to pay.
"Arigato, Loki-kun!!" I said, whipping my tears.
The rest of our date was fine. We shopped some more... Loki spend some more money... we had dinner at Burger King... and then we went to the movies.
We decided to watch Matrix Reloaded, since we could watch that or Peter Pan 2. When we I asked for two tickets to Matrix the woman saw Loki and shook her head.
"Why don't you watch Peter Pan 2 with your little brother? He'll like more. Besides..." she lowered the tone of her voice. "There are some pretty explicit sex scenes on this movie."
"Oh no, he's not my brother. He'll be fine." I said.
"Oh, but his parents won't like. What kind of babysitter takes a little boy to the movies, anyway?"
"I'm not babysitting him..."
"We're out on a date." Loki waving cheerfully to the woman. She gave me a disgusted look as if she 'Pedophile!' and handed over the tickets.
"Just, please, don't make out in the middle of the movie." she said.
"Good idea, miss!! Domo!!" Loki said, grinning.
I sweatdropped and patted Loki on the back.
"Sometimes you surprise me, Loki-kun..." I said.
The beginning of the movie was fine. We ate pop corn and watched happily. I jumped slightly when Neo and Trinity started doing things in a very explicit way, but that was ok. It was not like if I care or anything. It was not like I wanted to have someone I loved that much.
Indeed. I was still a pure Japanese girl with pure thoughts and a very, very pure mind. It would never cross my mind the thought of something like: Oh-my-God! I need a boyfriend so we can kiss and love each other. And if it's Loki, even better!
No,no! That would never... cross... my... mind. Wait... did it just cross my mind?
I stared at Loki. He was hardly pain any attention to the movie. He was eating pop corn and staring at random this, but none of those 'random things' was the movie.
I felt so happy there, beside him. I could almost feel the happiness flowing inside my body. He was so cute and nice. I wanted to be with him forever.
"Loki-kun... do you think this movie is boring?" I asked, shyly. He sighed.
"Kinda pornographic, don't you think?" he said, shuddering. I laughed. "Let's go home..." Loki got up.
I don't know why. I think it was reflex or something. But I grabbed Loki's arm and pulled him back to his seat. He stared at me, puzzled.
"No... let's stay here. Because here..." I looked down to my lap and smile. "Here I can be alone with you... Loki-kun." I blushed. "I don't care which is your appearance. If it's of a 9 year old of a 20 year old... I... just want to be with you."
Loki's first expression was of pure surprise. But then he smiled and held my left hand with both his hands and brought it closer to his face.
"That's why I like you so much Mayura-chan" he said, smiling. "Because your love for me is so pure. You don't care that I'm a God banished to Earth, or if I might cause the destruction of the world. You just... stay here with me. That's why I love you so very much." Loki kissed my hands gently.
All I could do was blush.
I felt so happy that moment. I had no idea how much trouble that relationship would cause. Especially because the Gods already knew that Loki had found out who I was. And they couldn't let him get his mightiest weapon for the Ragnarok: love.
