Edit: 4.3.2015
AN: As you can see this is not a new chapter. I have just finished going through all of the chapters and edited it and added some things. I highly recommend that you go back and read the story from the beginning because some important things have been added and changed.
I also want to take a moment and thank everyone who has followed and favorite this story. It has made me want to continue this story.
I have to give a very special thanks to AliceInTheCountryOfClover for taking the time to send me a PM and ask if I was planning on continueing the story. Honestly without receiving that PM, I don't know if I would have started this story again.
Sammie sat in an interrogation room, she wasn't able to see Thor yet. Coulson wanted to keep them separated until he got some answers. Her mouth hurt from the guard that hit her and she knew she would have a bruise soon, if not one already. Sammie was leaning forward, her head on the table as she fought off sleep, when the door opened. She sat up straight expecting to see Coulson again but her jaw dropped when she recognized who was standing before her.
"Clint?" she gasped with a smile.
"Hey Sparks, it's been a while." Clint Barton said with a slight smirk.
"I hate when you call me that," she frowned at the use of her nickname he made up for her.
"I know you do," Clint chuckled, moving to sit before her, his face losing the smirk and became a blank mask. "What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same question." She said sitting back in the chair, one eyebrow raised.
"I thought you were on a straight path when I got you out of the lab. I thought you wanted normal."
"Of course I wanted normal, I still do."
"Then what are you doing here, this is the last place I would expect you to be."
"Likewise. I guess you're not really a cop," she shrugged at her old friend. It was because of him that he was able to get out of the lab. He saved her and helped her get to a safe place, with a new identity. She owed him everything.
"I kind of am," Clint grinned.
"What are they doing to Thor?" She demanded.
"Nothing, you forget that were the good guys, Sammie. Coulson is just asking him a few mandatory questions and then you will both be able to go.
"I want to see him."
"What were you thinking Sam? A god. Really?" Clint said recognizing the concern in her voice and the worried expression on her face.
"There are worst people to fall in love with." Sam shrugged not realizing she really just admitted to loving him. The man was going to leave her, return to his home planet. She was going to get hurt, love was a strong emotion. One that she never felt before, and she didn't even have a chance with the man.
"Barton, I'll take it from here." Coulson said making her jump, she hadn't even realized that he came into the room. Clint looked at her before standing up and leaving the room.
"Miss Samantha, your file is extremely impressive." Coulson said with a friendly smile. He really seemed like a nice man but she wasn't sure she liked where this conversation was heading.
"I wasn't aware I had a file," Sammie frowned.
"Our job it to track down the abnormal and make sure there is no threat."
"Am I a threat?" She asked rubbing her wrists.
"You used to be, yes," Phil nodded.
"Used to?"
"Mr. Stark helped take you off that list. You haven't had an incident in years thanks to the injections he made for you. You're still watched from time to time, but not consistently."
"Where's Thor?" She asked with a frown. She changed the subject because she really didn't want to talk about her past. She just wanted to leave this place.
Coulson sighed before standing up and heading to the door. "I will send him in, and then you're free to go."
Sammie looked down at the table, she wasn't a threat but her hands were cuffed to the underside of the table so she wouldn't be able to cause trouble. If this was how they treated non threats she didn't want to find out how they treated the real threats.
Thor frowned as he was lead down the hall way by Agent Coulson. He wasn't sure what they were going to do with him but at that moment he really didn't care. Loki visited him and told him their father was dead. He was stuck here on earth. At least he would be able to give Sammie the good news when he saw her. Coulson opened the door and inside he could see her. She sat in a small room at a table. She looked up at the door opening and smiled when she smiled. She stood up only to be pulled back to the table with an unseen force. Thor rushed to her to help and frowned when he saw she was chained to a table.
"What is the meaning of this?" Thor demanded. He grabbed onto the cuffs, and pulled at them.
"Oh I'm sorry about that." Coulson apologized he moved forward and unlocked the cuffs. As soon as Sammie was free she stepped back towards Thor rubbing her sore wrists.
"I thought you said I wasn't a threat?" Sammie questioned.
"It was just a precaution." Coulson said looking embarrassed.
"You said we're free to leave now?" Sammie asked grabbing Thor's hand.
"Yes you may go now, but we will be in touch." Coulson said with an understanding nod. Thor looked down at Sammie and wrapped his arm around her, he was glad that he was next to her again. He didn't fully trust the S.H.E.I.L.D men. Coulson walked them out of the space and stood at the entrance watching the couple walk away. As soon as they were to her car, Thor turned her so she was leaning next to the driver's side of the car and out of Coulson's sight. He pulled her up for a crushing kiss, happy to be on their way. He pulled away with a frown as he tasted blood. It was then he noticed her split lip, which had broken open again at the force of his kiss.
"What is the meaning of this?" Thor commanded, angry to see she had been hurt. He had half a mind to turn around and yell at Coulson but Sammie clutched at him, as if knowing what he was thinking.
"Let's just go home, please Thor. I'm tired." She begged holding his arm as if her strength could keep him from marching inside the organization.
They were quiet on the ride home, Sammie was thinking about what Coulson said about her file, and Thor was reliving his last confrontation he had with his father. They entered the home, Thor threw himself on the couch exhausted and pulled Sammie to him. He played with her hair, thinking about not being able to return home and if she would really accept him. There was something about wishing to be together when they knew that they couldn't. Would she still want to be with him if she knew he wasn't going anywhere? He hoped so. He really liked her. She was kind, smart and was beautiful. There had never been a women on Asgard that caught Thor's attention, they all just wanted him because he was the prince. They didn't actually know anything about them, nor did they try.
"I am not returning home," Thor finally admitted after a while of silence.
"What?" Sammie asked confused. She looked at him waiting for him to explain himself, knowing it had to do with something that happened while they were in S.H.E.I.L.D.'s cells.
"My father is dead, he was the only one who could allow my return." Thor said softly.
"Oh, Thor. I am so sorry." She frowned turning to face him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Thank you," Thor nodded. "At least this means I can stay to earth with you."
"I wish our happiness didn't come from such a loss." Sammie frowned. She was happy that he would be able to stay with her, but she didn't want him to lose his father. From what Thor has said about his father, Oden, he truly loved his sons and wouldn't want Thor to be stuck here.
The next few days passed quickly, both were still recovering from what happened that night they went for the hammer. Although Thor was saddened by his father's death he was happy that Sammie seemed to still want him around.
I am going to try and have the next chapter up by Tuesday!
Please keep a look out for it, and read and let me know what you think.
Read and Review!
