Please listen to Strangely beautiful by shealeigh and One step closer by Shane Harper for this chapter.
*8 months later*
Terra turned off the shower and wrapped up in a towel, her pregnancy was really showing since it was 8 months in now, she had turned 19 a few days ago but they hadn't celebrated because Terra had been passed out on the floor of the bathroom, being a magical being and pregnant was not a good combination, the morning sickness was twice as weird as it was for normal humans.
Walking into her closet she grabbed a pair of sweat pants and a loose fitting t-shirt and slipped them on "I can't wait till you're out of me" she talked down to the baby in her stomach as the door to her room slid open and she walked out to the main living area.
"Hey Pyro" "Shut it Tony!" "Geez someone's moody today" she flipped him off "Geeze someone is REALLY moody today" she glared now and made a bowl of oatmeal appear.
"Terra you hate oatmeal" she glared again "I know" she said as she put a spoonful in her mouth "Baby seems to like it though" *Screech!* "and that must be Clint and Natasha" she made a mental note to not have him be the one who drove her to he hospital when she went into labor.
"Terra?" it was Samantha giving her a weird look, most likely about the oatmeal "Terra you-" the darker haired sibling cut her off "We already had this discussion Sammy" she just nodded and took a seat on one of the bar stools and that's when Loki walked in…well more like dragged himself "Loki, dude you look like something the cat dragged in" he gave the international sign to shut up by sticking up his middle finger and glaring at the group.
"Chill out reindeer games it was a joke" Tony said while standing up to go to the fridge.
"Stop calling me reindeer games damn you" Loki cursed at the man for about 15 minutes before settling down.
"Loki what crawled up your ass this morning" it was Terra scolding him he just glared and flipped her off too "Yeah back at ya buddy, my mood swings are YOUR fault" she said angrily, she still hadn't forgiven him for what he had done to her 8 months ago but she tolerated him since he was the father.
"Oh move on already, I've said sorry enough to last a life time, both yours and mine" the way humans spoke had rubbed off on him and you could tell.
"Its not easy to move on when the proof is still growing inside of me!" she emphasized the word growing.
Loki had made a bowl of corn flakes for breakfast and was now sitting and eating them…loudly "Oh my god you are truly irritating" terra said finishing her bowl of oatmeal and walking away.
Terra was standing in one of the recording rooms that S.H.I.E.L.D had built just last month as a way to keep her busy and from destroying things when she got mad.
She began to sing:
"Ooh
Heeeyyy
Yeah
I quite like the way you smile
I quite like the way you say my name
Somewhat of a fascination
How you swirl a conversation
And when we're apart
I think about you all the time
Tell me quick
Are you thinking about me"
She turned the music up and started dancing around the small studio.
"You don't know how much I care, do you?
You don't realize that this song is about you
So come play a song for me on
Your beautiful guitar
Got everyone fallin' in love
Standin' there and lookin' special
But if I saw you in the pouring rain
The illusion wouldn't be the same
I think you should know
You'd still be strangely beautiful
Strangely beautiful
Oohhohh
I quite like the way you laugh
I quite like the way you play guitar
A subject of admiration
Messin' with my concentration
You're like a song that I sing on and on and on
Tell me quick
Are you singing about me
You don't know how much I care, do you?
You don't realize that this song is about you
So come play a song for me on
Your beautiful guitar
Got everyone fallin' in love
Standin' there and lookin' special
But if I saw you in the pouring rain
The illusion wouldn't be the same
I think you should know
You'd still be strangely beautiful"
Loki happened to be passing by the studio and walked in to hear her voice, he didn't know why but she had such a calming effect on him.
When the music stops
And the crowds go home
You take your rock star self apart
I want you to know
You'll still be
In my heart
You're strangely beautiful
Strangely beautiful
Oh
You're strangely beautiful
Strangely beautiful
Oh
You're strangely beautiful" her green eyes opened in shock when she saw Loki staring at her with sadness in his eyes.
"Terra…I" she just stood frozen "I wrote it about you, you know" she said after a long awkward silence "Really?" she nodded "I wrote it back on Asgard after one of my lessons" "I didn't know you were skilled, if I didn't know any better I'd say you were a siren in human form" she smiled at him "I'm not as good as the sirens back home and you know it" sirens were creatures who looked half human half fish, basically what a humans depiction of a mermaid is.
She playfully shoved Loki and he just smiled, this was the first friendly moment they had shared in months.
"You know, you should go professional" she smiled at him again "I'm good but not that good."
He elbowed her in a playful way "You are too" he grabbed the headphones and walked over to the mic.
"Hit record when I give the signal"
He put the headphones on and began to sing, terra hit record as soon as he nodded his head.
"Woahhh ohh, hey hey
Listen"
He smiled at Terra through the glass and she bobbed her head to the music.
I can't keep chasing you around
all of this running just bringing me down
its got me down
Every time I look at you the angels sing
I hope you hear them too
ohhhhhhhh, oh
I hope you here them too
got me feeling hypnotized
and girl it makes me feel alive
Heeyyyy Yeahhh
I'd climb the highest mountain
and I'd sail across the sea
baby for you I'd do anything
I'd fly to the moon
I'd paint your gray skies a beautiful blue
just to get one step closer to you
Don't hesitate there's no better time than now baby
the sky is falling down
well baby are you down, down, down, down
I could wait forever and a day
just to have you look my way (just look my way)
look my way yeah
It's in every little thing I do
'cause baby I do it all for you
Heeyyy yeahhh
I'd climb the highest mountain
and I'd sail across the sea
baby for you I'd do anything
I'd fly to the moon
I'd paint your gray skies a beautiful blue
just to get one step closer to you
I will write you a million love songs
just to hear you sing
baby for you I'd do anything
I'd fight superman
just to hold your hand
I have to get one step closer to you
And now your in my arms
I knew it from the start
That I'd never break your heart
If this ain't love then nothing else is
I'd do anything for just one kiss
I'd climb the highest mountain
I'd sail across the sea
for you I'd do anything
I'd plan a picnic on the moon
just for me and you (x2)
I will write you a million love songs
just to hear you sing
baby for you I'd do everything
Yeah, I'd fight superman
just to hold your hand
have to get one step closer to you
ooohhh, yeahhhh
just to get one step closer to you"
