Hey guys. I know its been a while since I posted so I thought of posting two today sooooooo. Here is the second one. This one is much shorter than any of the others I have posted and for that I am really sorry.

I don't own it if you recognize it.

I leaned back in my chair and rubbed my face hoping to rub the tiredness away. The long night of work at the bar left me really tired. Not that there was much to do beings it was a Monday night, but I really needed to wake up because I currently have company with me. Loki pulled up a chair and sat out with me on the balcony while I smoked.

"So what are you doing awake this time of the night?" I asked Loki who was now relaxing back in a chair looking up at non-existent stars.

"Volstag snores." a simple enough reply to which I responded with a nod. I heard he had a silver tongue. I really hope he doesn't use it tonight. I'm too tired for a witty conversation. Halfway through my cigarette I noticed how quiet it was between us. So, to try to avoid the silence I leaned over and turned on the little mini radio. No not a boom box and not a stereo system. It's a radio designed by Tony that's about the size of a smart phone but it is some how loud enough to where you thought you were at a concert. It tuned to the first stable radio connection turning the volume down slightly that way should Loki decide to strike up a conversation his voice could easily be heard over the music. I am not to big on rap or hip-hop... whatever you want to call it, but I do like this song. All I know is the song is called Beware and it is by an author I never really cared to look for. So to fill the slightly awkward silence that was within us I sang the song that was playing.

"When you said it was over - you shot right through my heart
Why you let these hoes tear what we had right apart
Ooh, I was so mad; I could've seen this coming right from the start
You should beware, beware, beware of a woman with a broken heart"

After singing the verse I took a puff from my cigarette and joined Loki into staring at the night sky, Just to find out that he was no longer looking at the sky. He was looking at me like I was a puzzle and couldn't quite figure out where the pieces went.

"Yes?" I questioned him, raising an eyebrow and leaning away from him in my seat.

"You have a very lovely voice." He said raising his eyebrows in a matter-of-fact manner while putting his hand to his chest in defense.

"Oh, Thank you. Just please stop staring at me. It makes me feel uncomfortable"

"Oh, well I would hate to make you uncomfortable but I will more than likely gaze upon you more than you would like. You are just about the only person here who is easy on the eyes." He started. "But the clothes you wear do you no justice."

At this I grinned."There ain't nothing like Wally World!"

Loki looked confused for a moment before questioning. "What is Wally World?"

"Walmart?" He still looked confused. "You know the place where really weird, Mcdonald munching, middle class go to find all there clothing and beat their kids?" Still confused he replies, and I quote.

"Who is this Mcdonald?" Needless to say I face-palmed.

"Oh boy! You can tell your not from this planet." I said rubbing my face once again while chuckling. I saw from the corner of my eye him smirk, and then I felt it. He was curious. Oh, boy this is going to go exactly where I don't want it to go. He leaned forward in his chair eyebrow raised with an amused smile."Yes well I doubt you are from this world as well. How long have you been hiding in Tony's shadow? Surely there must be more to you than meets the eye if you some how escaped shield and currently living with a newly found traitor of shield."

I knew it. Loki was going to start asking me questions about my life and that is something I really don't care to talk about. "If you think that you will get any answer out of me about my past, my powers, and future plans you are highly mistaken. All that you need to know is I am not from this world, I am very old, and don't piss me off because you have less to worry about with the hulk than with me."I sighed. "Besides Tony hasn't even heard my life story. Tony knows just a little more than you know about me. It's called a past for a reason. And on top of that, I think we should be expecting a house call from Fury because I know for sure that he will not give up on turning me into a shield operative. I am going to be compliant with Fury and unfortunately tell him everything."

Loki raised his hand to his chest in mock hurt. "You will tell the spy everything about yourself but not a god? My, my, I would have thought you better than that Number 9."

Number 9. Numb- Man this guy is really pushing it! "So, why do they call you Number 9? The name doesn't suit you in one bit. I prefer Olivia much more."

I kept my pleasant smiling face up. Never once deterring from the form my face froze in. "As I was saying. When Fury comes, which I know he will, I am going to have everyone gather in Tony's poker room. The only reason why my story will even come to light is because I need a home. I can't keep running for the rest of my life. I will only tell the story once, so when he gets here you better pay attention."

Loki scoffed. "Do you have any idea who you are talking to?" He laughed and got up from his seat. "I am Loki Go-"

"God of Mischief" I cut him off. I am in no mood for this conversation. A really annoyed sigh escaped my lips. "Yes, I know who you are and I must apologize that I am in no mood for games. I have had a very tiresome night and I plan on going to sleep." I got up from my chair and began walking away. "You might want to get some rest too because I have a feeling that they will be putting you to work tomorrow." I opened the door to let him go inside before me when I felt another hand on the door. Looking over I saw that Loki was holding the door for me and motioning for me to go in before him. "Why thank you." I said smiling a very tired and lame smile at him. "Go get some sleep. If Volstag is still snoring I have something to help with the sound." I rubbed his arm and told him "Good night."
