"Yes, Captain," Olivia winked flirtatiously at him as all three of them headed off to do what they were told. They almost didn't catch his face reddening.
The girls ate a light lunch and went off to train with Wanda and Vision. Well, Nina and Vision trained. The other three mostly huddled together and discussed the days events and their impact on their ridiculous bet. Nina found the training to be surprisingly relaxing. If nothing else it was better than the hell Steve put them through.
Dinner that night was a much more social event with Thor around. Nina mostly spent the evening listening as everyone exchanged stories. Everyone was still trying to outdo each other and Olivia was still causing trouble. It wasn't until people started to go the bed that Nina realized there was a problem.
"Can I stay with you tonight?" She asked Olivia. They were all sitting on or around the couch now and the story telling was much less boisterous.
"Oh, right," She said and thought about it for a minute. "No," Nina had to admit it was a long shot.
"Cap. You don't mind if Nina bunks with you tonight, right?" He was about to scold her before he realized Nina really didn't have anywhere to sleep. Still, his response wasn't what Olivia wanted to hear.
"There are plenty of empty rooms," He pointed out.
"The flower girl doesn't have a place to sleep?" Thor asked.
"She was staying in your room. We weren't expecting you back anytime soon," Steve told him.
"Stay," Thor turned his attention to Nina. "You may have my bed. I will stay here," And thus began the cycle.
"Oh no, I can find somewhere else. It's fine," Nina assured him.
"I insist," Thor countered.
"I can't take your bed,"
"You are not. I am giving it to you,"
"I'll sleep somewhere else,"
"I think you will not,"
Olivia laughed. "Alright, well good night," She popped up from her spot on the floor, winking at Nina.
"You're move, Kat," She said to her friend as they both left for their own, undisputed rooms. Bucky followed soon after and Steve reluctantly left Nina and Thor alone not long after that.
The two sat in silence, watching TV until Nina had the audacity to yawn.
"You should go to bed," He told her. His arms were crossed over his chest and he didn't bother looking away from the TV.
"No," Nina said stubbornly.
"As you wish," He shrugged, changing the channel to a sportscast, which Nina found mind numbingly boring. He was trying to smoke her out.
Nina lost herself in thought and then lost herself completely. She nodded off, body leaning precariously in Thor's direction. When her head finally hit his shoulder, she jolted awake. He put his arm across the back of the couch, shooting her a sideways look. When she fell into him again only a few minutes later, he took his chance. Before she could move away he trapped her against his side, pulling her as close to him as she could get.
Nina grunted as her efforts to escape were immediately put to a stop. She looked up at him, being met with a smug smile.
"I'm not going to bed," She told him firmly.
"Very well," He thought it was cute that she still thought that was an option.
Nina held out for a full thirty minutes, kept upright by the fact that she was touching another person. And one she wasn't familiar with, at that. But that was becoming the norm for Nina and when she felt her eyelids drooping she let her head fall back against his arm. Knowing then that he had won, Thor shrugged her closer, causing her head to fall into his chest. She didn't protest, but she did pout.
