University Life Series 2, Part 2, Little Miracles
You both frantically search around the dorm for Lucy, countlessly calling out her name. "Where is she!" You say, exiting the balcony. "I have no idea." Loki says, getting on his knees and searching under the couch. You both hear a soft "mew" from the air duct, and you both turn to eachother with worried eyes. You quickly jump onto the couch and reach for the air duct. "Please tell me a load of new born kittens isn't going to fall out of the ceiling." Loki says, stepping on the couch next to you. You take the cover off the duct and try to reach your hand in but it barely brushes the top. "Dammit, pick me up." You say, turning to Loki not letting your hand leave the duct. Loki grabs your waist and lifts you up to the duct even more. "You are so lucky you are light, darling." Loki says. "I'll take what I can get." You say. You put your hand farther into the duct and you feel something sharp stab your hand in several places. "Shit!" You say, jumping out of Loki's grasp and onto the floor. You hold your hand that is pulsing with blood, and look at the small bite marks lining your hand. Small streams of blood flow down to your wrist. "The little bitch." You say, holding your hand tightly hoping to stop the bleeding. "Yup, that's it." Loki says, and you turn to him. He puts his hand into the duct, and pulls Lucy out, who has clamped onto his hand also. Loki picks her up by the skin on her neck and looks at her. "The little prostitute." He says, smiling.
You both treat the wounds on your hands, and get Lucy into a box with a blanket, and watch Lucy to make sure she is ok. "What is up with everyone I know being pregnant?" Loki says, stroking Lucy's back. "I'm not sure." You say, "I am going to call a vet." You say, reaching for the phone. "What! Why!" Loki says, grabbing the phone out of your hand. "To make sure we are doing this right?" You say, taking the phone back from him. "I have many books on your Midgardian animals, just leave her alone." He says. "Alright..." You say, setting the phone back in the cartridge. Loki goes back to watching Lucy and you go to join them. "Lucifer Laufeyson, you are such a little prostitute!" Loki says, petting her head. You smack him lightly on the shoulder. "Ok, maybe just a whore for now." Loki says, smirking over at you and you shake your head laughing. "There isn't any other cats in this dorm building right?" You ask, staring down at the ball of fur. "You smuggled this cat in the dorms." Loki says, and you remember back when you first met. Also Loki's great 'excuse move' and turning your room into a kitten corral. Yet Lucy stayed, and you both love her to death. "Than how did this happen?" You say, motioning to the cat in the box. "Well, number one, we have been leaving her in the dorms alone for at least a day the past week. Two, Lord knows were another cat would come in. Three she's a whore." He says. You laugh at the last one. "Well," Loki says, leaning on the foot of the couch. "This is going to be a long day." "We should just leave her alone for now." You say, standing up, "You know, go look at houses around campus and stuff." "No, I am not leaving her here with another cat around. He would most likely kill the kittens again." Loki says, dragging you by the arm to sit next to him, you do. "So we are supposed to sit here and do nothing the whole day?" You ask, leaning your head on Loki's shoulder. "I guess." He says, and rests his head on yours.
Turns out, both of you fell asleep in the time being. You wake up to all the windows being pitch black outside. You glance at the clock on the cable box. The green numbers showing 9:57pm. You sigh quietly, being sure not to wake up Loki who is sleeping pretty much on you. Just to annoy him you poke him in the face. "Hmm?" He groans. "We slept another 8 hours." "SHIT THE KITTENS!" Loki yells, and jumps away from you to the box. You notice his face light up at the sights in the box. You slide over to the box next to him, and see 4 kittens, all grey like Lucy with her same deep green eyes. Your face cracks into a smile, at all the little 'mews' emerging from the box. Their little grey bodies all bundled together next to Lucy. "Oh my god." You say, staring at the wonder. Loki rubs your back, "Truly little miracles." Loki says, not breaking eye contact with the kittens. You look over at Lucy, who seems quite proud with herself. She nuzzles one of her new kittens. "We will keep her in the box overnight, darling." Loki says, getting up. "Alright." You say, standing also. "We have Cheez-Its." You say, knowing Loki's only weakness. "You...do?" Loki says, turning to you. "Yup." You say, smirking, and picking at your nails. Loki pins you to the wall behind you. "(Y/n) Laufeyson, I will tickle you so bad your throat will bleed, until you give me the crackers of the gods..." Loki says, staring into your eyes. "Uh... I don't know..." You say just to annoy him. He raises his hand above your stomach ready to attack you. "I WILL do it." Loki says. "Bite me." You say smiling. He raises his arm back farther, and jerks it forward just to scare you. "OK I WILL GIVE THEM TO YOU!" You flinch. "Ha, I knew it." Loki says, standing back, "Now where are they?" He asks. You walk from the wall. "In my stomach." You say. "GAAAHHH!" Loki says, throwing his head back. "Ha, just kidding, second drawer on the right." You instruct, pointing to the counter drawers. Loki runs to the drawers, and frantically searches for the box, and pulls it out. "You are a sneaky girl." He says, shaking his finger at you. "I try my best." You say, smiling.
The next day is the first day of the weekend. So no classes to teach or attend! You are pacing around the kitchen, doing nothing really. You hear a knock at the door and go to answer. They took the peek holes out of the doors when they rebuilt the building. You open the door to see a familiar face. It was the President of the campus Mr. Trainors. "Mrs. Laufeyson! Where is your husband?" He asks, glancing around the room. "Uh.. um... he had to get somethings." You say, lying, he was in your room watching TV. "Oh, may I ask where you both were yesterday? Loki had to teach classes, and you had to learn in them." Mr. Trainors says, leaning against the door frame. You roll your eyes. "Our cat had kittens." You say. "Mhm." He mumbles, staring at the box. "Didn't your cat have kittens last year also?" He asks, perking his head to try to see into the box. "Yup. Well as you can see I am sick." You fake cough, "and I need some recovery time. So bye!" You say, and shut the door in his face. You groan silently happy that he was gone. You walk over to the box, to see something shocking. "LOKI!" You yell.
