Author's Note:
Heyyyy everyone! Happy Monday/Tuesday! Sorry this was kinda late at night when I uploaded this, but I couldn't upload it earlier because... well, I fell asleep! LOL, sorry guys, anyways, here's the update, so I hope you enjoy and get all your holiday shopping done because its a pain in the buttocksies (for me anyways, spent hours online looking for special gifts for friends)!
Anyways, I just wanted to say that writing Loki was extremely hard for me... I don't know why, but it just was... I hope that this is up to par with everyone, though I'm not too happy about the way this turned out because it wasn't as "steamy" as I wanted to. Probably not as much 'intimacy' as I (and probably you guys) wanted...
Well, I do promise the next one will be a lot better!
Thanks for the wonderful reviews and thanks for following and faving! It really makes my day when people PM me and review all these wonderful comments! It just makes me want to send a virtual hug to everyone! Thanks for the support!
DISCLAIMER: ONE PROBLEM, I CAN'T SPEAK OR UNDERSTAND NIHONGO. CAN ONLY READ. WEIRD RIGHT?

LOKIxYUI
He liked the look of her hair, that's why the first time he ever met her, he touched it. It was long, straight, and soft, but what he loved most about it was that it was violet. Something about that color made him go...
Insane.
•
He sighed from lack of entertainment, there just wasn't enough things around the school to do. He was ditching all of his classes because he didn't find them necessary, oddly enough, he didn't know why Thorsy and Balder-kun enjoyed it. They did try to coo, tempt, and beg him, but he just retorted with a nasty comment saying that their minds were corrupt by the highly insignificant human girl. They didn't talk to him for the rest of the day.
•
As he hung upside down from one of the trees in the school garden, he unconsciously started to swing back and forth while trying to think about something fun to do. He would describe the garden school of the likes of a confined prison, too small and too tight for him to even think. Of course that was his opinion, he had no interest in human desires and wished to not even be around a mortal. Besides, those peasants didn't worship him in any way other then looking to him as an Oni...
He continued to brainstorm before coming up with a great idea. He swung one more time and did a quick flip before landing softly on his two feet, "Hmm... Idea..." He grinned mischievously before running off.
•
He arrived at the classroom's sliding door, he reached for the nook to slide open the panel, but for a second he hesitated. It was such a short period of time that he could have sworn it never happened, he didn't know why hesitation over took him, but he quickly recovered and opened the it.
He burst into the class during Thoth-sensei's lecture about the human anatomy and everyone, even the spirits, turned and looked at him in shock at the mere fact that he even walked through that door.
However, he didn't bat an eyelash at their astonished gazes, "Hello, Thoth-sensei, sorry I'm late for class." He bowed over dramatically, and by now, the entire class's jaws were on the ground. He held back the smirk that started to arise that not even his familiars could tell it was all an act. They were probably too surprised to remember Loki Laevatein had a F grade in lying.
Thoth was the first to regain himself, "Take your seat immediately! I can have you suspended or put into detention for skipping class!" He yelled at him, it was the norm.
Loki skipped to the back right where Yui usually sat and placed himself in the only empty seat in the room, right next to her. He noticed that she was still trying to cover her shocked face when she turned to smile at him. He proceeded to wink at her, earning him a blush in return.
•
About half an hour had passed after Loki had made his grand entrance into class during Thoth-sensei's second lecture (he later found out from Yui that before the human anatomy, Thoth-sensei was lecturing to the gods about their eating habits).
Loki had set his plan into motion the minute he got the chance. Yui was closely listening and watching sensei lecture about American history, and he found his perfect chance right there. He discreetly lifted his desk slightly closer to Yui's without anyone noticing, when he could reach her within arms length, he settled himself. He turned his head and rested it on the palm of his hand watching Yui as intensely as she was watching Thoth-sensei.
He knew that she'd feel his gaze eventually...
•
Three minutes had gone by before she noticed his stare, he could see her shift in her seat, he inwardly smirked (well he thought he did anyways). He saw as she pursed her light pink lips, "Loki-san, why are you staring at me?" She whispered to him barely taking her eyes away from the blackboard at the front of the class. "Oh nothing really..." He made sure to say it a little louder than necessary, "it's just that you look awfully nice today..." He added one of those grins that would make the young women back home swoon over him.
He could spot Yui turning beet red at his comment, she tried to cover her face, but it didn't help when her entire forehead and tips of her ears were bright pink too. When the class heard his comment, they turned around to face them. Of course Loki just leaned back into his chair and propped his feet onto the desk and let Yui drown in her embarrassment.
"Detention! For both of you after class in the library! If you're late, I'm referring you to Zeus-san!" Thoth-sensei snapped, he definitely didn't like being interrupted.
The class quickly grew quiet again after Thoth's sudden announcement for Loki and Yui.
•
After class, the spirits filed out of the room quickly as usual, but the gods hung around to talk to each other briefly to see what they were going to do for dinner.
Loki of course didn't forget about his 'so called detention'. He didn't know why Thoth-sensei was so into his whole, 'If you don't do this then you'll have detention!'. It was just a waste of time on his part and his sensei's part. No one was gaining anything.
He was woken up from his thoughts when something touched his shoulder, he jumped slightly, he was so deep into his thoughts. "Are you ready for our 'detention'?" He looked up to see his favorite color, violet. He suppressed the smile that tried to fight its way to the surface, instead he just turned the energy of the smile into a grimace, "Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have to do this because you got me in trouble..." He crossed his arms and turned the other way pouting. He could tell that didn't hit her correctly, she was quite obviously upset by his rather untrue comment. He, in all honestly, didn't care.
"Well, if I can make a point here, you were the one who spoke louder then necessary. Besides, all I really came for was to see if you wanted to walk to 'detention' with me." She crossed her arms across her chest too. She paused, "and I also wanted to thank you for the n-nice comment..." She spoke the last part quietly.
He knew that she had this quite an usual effect on him, but he didn't feel like thinking about it at the moment. His number one priority was to get his 'plan' in action, part one was done, and now part two was about to take place.
He let the bangs of his hair fall into his face before he grabbed her hand and ran out of the classroom with Yui in toll, without saying another word.
•
He really was anxious for the outcome of his 'fun'. He wanted to taunt and play with Yui because there was something about her that made something deep, deep, deep down in his heart leap. He wanted to deny the fact that he actually had a special place in his pumping organ for her, but he couldn't.
He had always tried to avoid contact with the human girl, but recent activities and 'coincidences' had caused the opposite to happen.
He had these feelings somewhere in the shadows of his fiery heart, but refused to let it surface, and it remains there to this dat. He thought that maybe taunting or playing with those feelings would be enough to burry them again. He would openly admit—to himself—that he doesn't know how to hand any kind of feelings properly. He would usually abuse them until they don't show themselves again. That was how he made it before Balder and Thor had taken him in.
•
He gripped her wrist tighter while he dragged her to the library with a fast pace. He just wanted to get this over with so that he didn't have to feel anything towards her again. He swung open the double doors to the library, "Thoth-sensei!" He called out with a sweet mocking tone, "Yuiiiii~chan and I are here~!" He laced his words with lemon sweet honey. He almost shocked himself at his tone.
Yui hadn't said a word yet, and for that, he was grateful. Well, what he'd consider grateful.
"Very well, sit down at the table Laevatein Loki, and Kusanagi Yui, come with me." Thoth gestured for her to follow him as he turned on his heel causing his jacket to sway behind him, he swiftly walked away without waiting for Yui.
Loki knew that this was his chance, it was playing out perfectly, just as he had planned. He sat down at the table Thoth-sensei indicated to, and watched for the right moment to move 'stage three' into action. He saw sensei took her up to the second floor of the library, he watched intently as the Egyptian god (like usual) slammed his hand to the side of the bookshelf pinning her back to the wood. His hand came into contact with the shelf and it sent a loud echo throughout the library. He could hear their distant talking, but with his weak mortal body, he couldn't making out anything.
But the moment he saw Thoth-sensei started to lean closer causing the brush of pink on Yui's cheeks, he decided that the timing was too perfect.
He quickly, but quietly, ran up the stairs and hid behind the bookshelf one down from where his sensei and classmate was. He smirked deviously before popping one of his signature smoke bombs and running behind Thoth-sensei quickly shoving him forward. He was hoping that his 'plan' worked perfectly, he ran out of sight back down the stairs and out the door.
He was feeling quite satisfied with his work and felt that it was a job well done. He couldn't wait to see their faces of embarrassment for the upcoming days.
•
He decided to get some fresh air after popping that smoke bomb, those things had a tendency to cause his throat to become dry. He went to the fields behind the school and dormitory buildings to lay down in the endless shoots of small spring flowers that blossomed between the blades of grass. It was peaceful and it helped him clear his mind...
•
"Loki! You bastard!" He was shook awake by a rough push into the ground, his head hit the dirt pretty hard. "Hmmhmm...?" He yawned and muttered incoherent words to himself and to the sleep intruder. "You should see what you have done, you idiot prankster!"
He could feel himself being dragged up to stand, and come to find out, Takeru Totsuka was yelling at him, he had quite the stern face, with a hint of... Hurt? Pity? He didn't know, he would never know because he was just terrible with emotions like that.
He yawned again, trying to make it obvious that he didn't want anything to do with anything because he wanted his sleep, "What do you want, Susanoo?" He murmured, but when he turned his head the opposite direction of Takeru, he saw Baldy and Thorsy.
"Hmm? Balder-chan, Thor-kun...? What are you doing here?" He lazily asked them. As he rubbed his eyes, he noticed that Balder was wearing an awfully grim face. It seemed that Thor was carrying the same weight, just not benign as open about it.
He saw Balder purse his lips before grabbing his upper arm forcefully dragging Loki all the way back to the school.
"N-Nani? Baldy, where are we going?" He pouted to his best friend, but he kept silent along with that stern face that didn't look like it belonged.
•
Balder dragged him all the way back to the school wing, and he still didn't know where he was going. He looked behind him to see that Thor, Takeru, Tsukito, and Hades were following close. He continued to pout not knowing where he was headed.
•
When Loki thought that they were going to turn into their classroom, he couldn't have been more wrong. They stomped right pass it and headed toward the infirmary wing.
'Infirmary wing? What would I have anything to do with this?!" He didn't want anything to do with what was happening, whether he caused it or not, but since he was bring forced, he really had no choice.
Loki trudged along with Balder until they reached the first infirmary wing door. Balder with a very straight face, looked Loki in the eyes, "This is your fault." He directly blamed him, what did he do? How would he know?
Balder swung the door open and what Loki's eyes registered what was before him, it hurt.
There she was.
Yui.
Laid down on the infirmary bed with a wrapped up arm and forehead with a casted left leg. She looked terrible with scratches and bruises slowly turning purple all over her exposed skin.
'What had happened?'
He was shocked, truly shocked, "Wh-What happened...?" He also saw Apollon, Dionysus, and even Thoth-sensei there. He noticed that his sensei had a few scratches on his face, but nothing serious like Yui.
"Look what you did, idiot!" Takeru ran in front of Loki and went right into his face, "When you 'pulled a prank' on Thoth-sensei and Weed, the bookshelf fell over and it crushed her!" He grabbed the front of Loki's jacket while shaking him back and forth. "You dobe!" He shouted at him.
Loki was too shocked to say anything, none the less move.
He watched as Balder walked up to Yui and carefully held her unwrapped hand and brought it gently to his lips, kissing it lightly. He could feel his eye twitch at the action, but he dare not move from the spot he was standing. The way some of the gods were glaring at him, he was surprised real daggers weren't piercing him.
"I-I..."
He couldn't bring himself to speak either.
Apollon had his hands resting on her shoulder, his back facing Loki. But then, he turned around showing puffy eyes and tear stained cheeks, "L-Loki-Loki... How could you do this to Fairy-san?!" He was very upset, to a point where he was even sobbing.
"You little twat. Did you hear him?!" Takeru continued to grab at his collar and shake furiously.
Yes, he did hear Apollon, but he still refused to believe it was his fault.
But the bigger question was, 'is she going to be ok?'
He blinked a few times, "Is-Is she... Go-" He was cut off, "She's sleeping, it'll take some time for her to recover." A smooth, unwavering voice resonated in the small cramped room. "Th-Thoth-sensei..." The forever mischievous Loki Laevatein looked down at his feet, he didn't believe he was ashamed at what he had done because he couldn't quite admit that it was his fault.
He caught a glimpse of Takeru balling his free hand into a fist, "If you have nothing to say, get the hell out of here..." He could hear Susanoo's grinding teeth.
It wasn't his fault.
He didn't do anything.
He was just being himself.
He had enough.
He kept his head hung low, not wanting to see the faces of his so called familiars. He harshly swatted Takeru's had off of him, turned on his heels, and briskly walked out of the room slamming the door behind him.
•
He laid outside in the fields behind the buildings once again, it was peaceful, it was the place where he went to clear his mind. This was definitely a time where he needed to take a deep breath and block out the world. He closed his eyes for a brief moment trying to see if he'd fall asleep, however he didn't.
He sat up and plucked a flower blooming near him, he brought it to his face and examined the white daisy-like flower. After a few moments of holding the tiny plant, it started to wilt.
"I guess Zeus's power-suppressing body jewelry doesn't take away my heat..."
That was one thing he didn't like, a curse-like heat radiated from his body that never seemed to go away, he'd sometimes burn things accidentally due to immediate contact. It was mostly frustrating then anything else.
He dropped the once white flower to the ground and threw himself back into the grass.
Why was he lamenting? This wasn't his fault! Why does he keep subconsciously thinking otherwise? He shouldn't worry about such insignificant things.
He'd just pretend like nothing happened...
•
The next day, he got up early, earlier then Balder and Thor, his roommates. He decided that he'd go for a quick walk around before heading to his first class, unlike his usual schedule of just roaming all day doing nothing.
He quietly shifted out of the room and into the long, quite, and dimly lit hallway of the dorms. He made his way to no where in particular.
•
Before he knew it, he was walking pass the classroom, his classroom. He paused briefly and peeked into the room from the window. He wasn't expecting anyone, but to his surprise, Tsukuyomi was seated in his usual seat writing in his small notebook. He watched the Japanese god briefly before noticing that his forehead was in a knot, he seemed to be stressed or frustrated, especially the way he was vigorously writing in the small book. Unlike his usual cool exterior, Tsukito was actually showing emotion.
He demanded that his feet move forward, and so they did, albeit slowly. He felt like the hallway seemed to have a slight draft, unusual to the normal warm and cozy feeling.
He continued on walking while watching his feet, and before he knew it, he found himself in the infirmary wing of the building. He looked up to see the long hallway, it somehow haunted him.
Footsteps that were coming down the hallway was the first thing to pull him back to reality. He hid behind the corner and saw as Balder was the one making his way to Yui's infirmary room. He felt a twinge in his heart, but brushed it off as nothing not wanting to linger on it.
He watched as his brother-like figure hesitated before opening the door, he continued to stare at Balder as he closed the same door behind him. Loki was curious to see what he would be doing this early in the morning in Yui's infirmary room, so he quickly rushed up to the door and placed his ear next to it.
"Yui-chan... I hope that you'll get better soon..."
There was a long pause, and just when Loki thought about giving up on his eavesdropping, Balder started back up again.
So he kept his ear next to the door.
"Wh-Why would Loki-chan do something like that...?"
It sounded more like he was asking himself that more then he was asking the unconscious girl on the bed.
Then he heard sobbing from the god in the room.
"Get well so that I don't have to worry about you!"
It pained him to hear Balder say things like that, he assumed that the pain was from hearing Balder's strong words. He worried the heat in his chest came from the fact that Balder could loose control of himself and possibly hurt the people around him; including Yui.
But never in a million years did he think that the sizzling deep, deep, deep down in his chest was actually coming from jealousy.
•
After a while, he decided to leave and come back late at night so that he couldn't run into any of the other gods, he was already shamed by them (or so Takeru called it) and didn't need to be constantly reminded.
He waited out in the grassy fields again, taking in the scent of the fresh grass and the early morning dew. But his paradise lasted only for a few fleeting moments for his radiating heat burnt the green off the edges of the blades and dried up the dew. He sighed and decided to ignore it.
For some odd reason, his godly powers were actually bothering him for the first time in his life.
He continued to think how he was going to deal with Balder and Yui, he was definitely going to burst, it was just a matter of time if things continued on the path it was going on.
But little did he know that Balder wasn't the problem.
•
He found himself asleep in the fields again, but this time, he slept through the morning, by the sun's odd position, he assumed that it was midday (Loki had learned the new rotational axis that this world rotated on, it was quite different from the Norse's). He got up, brushed the debris off of him and proceeded to class.
•
He was going to be late, two hours to be exact, but he didn't care, he decided to show up just to make sure that the other gods were staying in line.
Luckily for him, Thoth-sensei ignored his presence when he opened the door, and proceeded with his lecture without bothering to acknowledge his sudden appearance.
Loki moved to the back of the room away from most of the gods, but still with them in view. He watched them closely like a hawk eyeing its prey, his slit pupils boring holes into the backs of their heads. He wanted to make them feel uncomfortable, but none of them moved.
Not an inch.
•
Since school for them was quite short (due to the fact that there was only one teacher for the gods, and naturally, sitting in the same spot for a few hours on end would likely result in inpatient immortals), the gods and their spirit-classmates were excused to do what they like.
Loki watched the gods and kept in mind that they were probably going to head on to see Yui. He quickly butted in the moment he heard them talking about her.
"Baldy-chan! Can I come~?" He purred as he slung an arm around his neck. He briefly looked around and saw that the other gods were glaring at him. He looked back at Balder whom held a distasteful face towards him, "No, I rather you stay outside of Yui's infirmary room. You continue to prove to be a danger towards her." He stuck up his nose to Loki, and he couldn't help but think,
'You're the danger, Balder-san.'
•
Opposite to Balder's request, Loki went, primarily to follow the gods to make sure they wouldn't say anything to agitate Balder's tender heart.
Though he didn't know, Loki really wanted to make sure the gods didn't do anything to Yui.
He watched and waited until finally two hours passed by and the last two people remaining was
Balder and Apollon, he didn't know what they were waiting for, but they were probably trying to outlast each other.
Loki watched as Balder conspicuously eyed Apollon as he caressed Yui's arm, he felt his eye twitch in annoyance believing that it was because Apollon was agitating Balder's god of destruction. Though, Apollon was really agitating Loki's heart.
•
By the time Apollon and Balder left (they decided to leave together because they both wanted to out last the other and couldn't settle upon an agreement) it was past sunset. Loki decided to sneak in soon after they disappeared down the corridor.
"Yyyuuuuiiii-chaannn~" he purred softly when he slid through the door quietly shutting it behind him. "Lo-Loki-san?" He heard her, he heard her beautiful voice.
Wait.
Did he just call her voice beautiful?
"Yes my dear?" He walked up to her and looked into her piercing maroon eyes, he caressed her cheek softly with the back of his hand.
"Loki-sa-san... Why are you acting so... S-Strange...?" She mumbled softly after he had kissed her forehead and proceeded to gingerly draw circles on the top of her hand with his index finger.
That was an excellent question on her part, one that he should ask himself.
But Loki wasn't ready to let his heart spill, but he couldn't keep his guard up for forever.
And he hated it.
"Oh my pretty little Kusanagi..." He grinned his signature smirk, "Do you know what you do to me?" He couldn't stop his lips from moving, he just continued like he was talking to himself.
"You make me feel envious of the other gods..." He leaned down and brushed his long canines along the side of her ear and moved down to leave a trial of his saliva on her cheek. He could hear her squeak by his actions and that, somehow, sounded so much more pleasurable then any woman's moan.
"Yui-chan. you. make. me.
Jealous..."
He eyed her like prey, ready to pounce on his reward. He enunciated each word like it was life or death.
He ran a finger under her chin leaving it linger for three moments to long, "You make me crazy."
He didn't look her in the eyes because he knew what he did. He knew that he opened himself to her, in his strange way.
He leaned over the bed resting his two hands on either side of her shoulders as he leaned down to be merely centimeters from her lips.
"I'm a very possessive man, Yui~chan... Don't forget your mine."
With that, he lightly brushed his lips across hers like a feather gracing the surface of water.
As usual, if you review, I'll PM you the next pairing! Thanks everyone!
