Was kind of busy yesterday so you get the chapter today ^^

Chapter 13

Pepper came later that day with cloths and groceries for them to have for a week's trip and then they left the harbor. Now, just because Tony didn't have a yacht didn't mean he didn't know how to drive one. Loki was quite surprised and happy about this. He thought they would have to drag Happy or some else they don't know on their trip but now it was just what he wanted; just them. They traveled near the cost towards Malibu to get to a lot warmer regions. They saw various sea creatures like dolphins, sharks and even a whale of some sort. Loki was so fascinated by the creatures that when Tony was driving the boat he would go and do research on the animals and fell in love with wales. He didn't know why he found them magnificent but he just did.

They were now outside of Malibu's shore; Loki was lying at the front sun bathing when the light from the bifrost hit the boat in the back making it lift with enough force so when it landed back in to the water Loki rolled of the boat in to the water.

"Loki!" Tony screamed from the top of the yacht were he could drive it. Loki came up to the surface and looked around before swimming to the back of the boat. He climbed up the later and when he reached for something to pull himself up the last step a hand grabbed his and he thought it was Tony but when his lover screamed his name for the second time he wasn't close to him as the other hand was. And this hand didn't even feel like those coarse that touched him like no other. No, these hands were lean and bit bony. When he looked up he thought that he must have hit his head on something or swallowed to much saltwater because it was him, the man that he wanted dead or tortured first then dead. Patrick Macken.

"Release me." Loki hissed at him.

"If I do that; you will fall in to the water again." Patrick chuckled like he had done nothing.

He then dragged Loki up, he managed to get out of his grip and when he was released Tony came down from the stairs. His eyes went from shock and fear to pure anger.

"How the fuck did you get hear? You should be happy that I don't have my suit because I would shoot you in the ass and then leave you in the water and let you wait for the sharks alone." Tony growled and walked to Loki, he took a quick look over his body for wounds but he was just wet. He took a towel from a chair and gave it to Loki who wrapped himself in it and stood close to Tony, neither caring that Tony got wet by his boyfriend's touch. Patrick stood there, smiling in a grey suit.

"I know I've caused you two some trouble." Patrick started, talking like he was having a meeting with clients witch just pissed Tony off. Tony growled and walked up to Patrick and grabbed his jacket and pulled him towards the edge of the boat.

"Give me a good reason for not pushing you of the boat and leave." He hissed at Patrick.

The man's face didn't turn angry or anything he just looked in to his angry eyes.

"It would not suit you well if you threw of the All-father from a boat." He said with a calm voice. Tony's eyes turned wide when the man in front him turned in to someone else. He let go and backed away.

"Odin." Loki hissed from behind him. "You caused all this? Wasn't it the enough with the lies and this punishment?" Loki screamed at him.

"Loki calm down. I am only here to talk… specially with your partner." Odin said with a calm voice.

Loki walked up to Tony and placed himself between him and Odin. "Don't you dare do or say anything more to him. You have done enough." Loki's words where dripping with poison.

"It had to be done to make sure that he wasn't fooling you my son." Odin explained to him, not affected by the hostile of Loki.

"I am not your son." Loki shoots back. "And you have no right to interfere with our relationship." Loki pulled his wet blond hair back like he used to have it when he was a god.

Tony didn't know what to say. Loki's adoptive father had tricked him, twice and it almost ended this time and he still blamed himself for it. This man had made Loki feel small for his whole life, lied to him and then not wanted to deal with him, just threw him back to earth as a mortal and now he was interfering in his love life for his son's own good. What was wrong with him? How can he be a king?

"I want you off this boat… NOW" Tony yelled and walked up beside Loki with a threatening posture making Odin's eyes go wide. Loki looked at his lover with surprise.

"It would be wise to calm down mortal and not to appeal to me like that." Odin said and raised an eyebrow.

"I don't care who you are I want you gone." He hissed back. Even though Loki found that his boyfriend could stand up to Odin extremely sexy; he was starting to fear for his lover's life now. He put one of his hands on his lover's shoulder that made him look at him and calmed down a bit.

Loki returned his gaze to Odin who was watching the mortal calm down. "Say what you want to say and then leave us alone." Loki hissed at him.

Odin took a deep breath and met Loki's eyes with love witch made Loki want to puke. "I know this caused you a lot of pain but it had to be done for you to see how much you really love each other. I appeared for you today to show that I will leave you alone now and let you live your life together." Odin said and backed away slightly. "I just wanted to know that my son wasn't going to be left heart broken and alone… again. And I am very proud of you." He said with sadness in his eyes. The light came back and he was gone.

They stood there for a while just watching out to the sea, thinking about what he had said. Then Loki's hand slid down Tony's back making him return from his thoughts and look at Loki. He was crying, tears mixed with the sea water on his face. Tony put his arms around his lover and hugged him close to him. "That was very brave of you." Loki said in to his shoulder.

"What was?" Tony said stroking his back.

"Ordering Odin to go." Loki chuckled and looked in to his lover's eyes. "Or maybe it was just stupid." He whispered in to his ear, feeling his lover's goatee tickle his cheek.

"You know what else is stupid and brave?" Tony asked and slid his hands from the man's back to his hips. Loki's whispered a no and started to plant small kisses on his neck. "To have sex on the front of the boat; out in the open." Tony answered and grabbed Loki's ass making him gasp against his neck that sent a shiver down his spine.
"Well what are we waiting for?" Loki purred and kissed Tony deeply. Tony took his hand and led him to the front of the boat.

They lied there on the towel, cowered in sweat and cum, Loki feeling a bit sour but happy and when he looked at his partner he had a warm smile on his face. He rolled over to Tony so he lied on his side, tracing fingers up and down his lover's chest. "That was very exhilarating." He purred and placed small kisses on Tony's shoulder. His lover hummed and closed his eyes.

"Let's get a dog." Tony suddenly said opening his eyes and turned his head slightly so he could look in to those fantastic green eyes.

"What?" Loki's eyes went wide. Not by the proposition, he liked dog's actually, very loving and trusting creatures but that he lover would ask that right after sex was just to shocking.

Tony chuckled. "I know it's weird that I bring it up now when I have a very sexy naked man beside me but I was thinking about it before Odin got here and I just remembered it now." He said and gave his partner a wicked smile.

Loki looked at his lover with amused face. "What made you think that we should have a dog?" He asked his lover.

Tony shrugged his shoulder. "I actually thought of it as a Christmas present to you." He looked up at the sky, not a cloud to be seen.

"Yeah I would love to have a dog." He said and leaned over Tony and kissed him softly. When they parted he lay down on to his lover's chest and looked out over the sea.

"What kind of breed should we have?" Tony asked and started to do equations on his lover's back.

"Let's see if there is a dog for us at a rescue center." Loki said and sighed.

"How about a Mastiff or a Great Dane." Tony said and smiled.

"Nothing that will drool all over me… I already have you for that." Loki said a smirk playing on his lips.

Tony laughed and pinched the man in his side making him flinch a little. "We can see if there is any dog for us here in Malibu." Tony said and looked at the shore, seeing his mansion at the cliff.

They had parked the boat at the dock at Tony's mansion and gone up to take one of the cars.

They walked in to the biggest rescue center in Malibu; a woman greeted them with a smile. They went through an interview about their life and they told her truthfully how they could have the dog with them where ever they went witch pleased her greatly. When she declared them as a worthy couple to adopt a dog; she took them in to the room with the dogs. Most dogs where barking or sitting near the cage door wagging their tale. What made Loki stop was a cage with two puppies' laying in basket together sleeping.

"Who are these?" He asked the woman who walked up to him; Tony walked up to his side and looked at the two puppies that were waking up.

"These two are salukis, two sisters that were left here by a breeder that couldn't get them sold in time and she couldn't take care of them anymore. The reason why she couldn't get them sold was because she wanted to sell them as a pair because they are inseparable." The woman said with a sad smile. "Do you want to go in?" She asked Loki who nodded. She opened the cage and Tony and Loki walked in. The puppies were out of the basket and strutted over to the two men. Tony picked up the one who had a cream color and sparkling eyes that almost said play with me and she started to nip at his nose making him laugh. Loki picked up the one who was black and silver, she licked his thumb a bit before looking up at him and he couldn't help but feel that they had a lot in common. "They seem to like you two." The woman said with a big smile.

"What do you think Loki?" Tony asked while holding the puppy like a baby and scratched her stomach.

"I think they will be perfect." He said and stroked one of the long fluffy ears of the one he was holding.

"I'll go a get the papers then." She said and showed them to a room where they could be alone with the puppies.

"You know, it's like watching you and Thor but as female dogs." Tony chuckled and Loki rolled his eyes. They had exchanged puppies; getting to know the other one as well and Loki couldn't help but smile at the spirited little cream puppy in his arms.

"What should we call them?" Loki asked while letting the puppy in his arm chase his finger.

"Something similar to your names… how about Lola to the one I am holding and Tulisa to the one you're holding." Tony said and smirked at the little puppy who was falling asleep in his arms.

"I can go with Lola but not Tulisa… how about Tyra?" Loki asked and let the cream puppy gnaw on his finger a little.

"Sounds perfect." Tony said and kissed Loki's cheek.

The woman came in; they signed the papers and wrote the puppies names on it as well, they also got information papers about raising a puppy and a list of what they would need for them. Then she wished them good luck when they walked out of the center. They got in to the car and drove home. Tony took out his phone to call pepper about the news.

"Tony, are you okay?" She asked with a worried voice.

"Yes Pep I'm fine. Just wanted to tell you that we just adopted puppies." Tony said with a grin. He quickly looked over at Loki who was sitting next to him with both the puppies in his lap, sleeping.

"You did what?" Tony chuckled at her high pitched voice.

"It's my Christmas present for Loki… and partly me as well." Loki smiled at him.

Pepper sighed. "Do you need anything?" She asked.

"Ehm yeah, I'll send you a fax with the list of things we need for them when we get to the mansion." Tony said and drove up the drive way to the mansion.

"Okay, will you get back to New York for New Year's Eve?"

"No, we want the puppies to get more accustomed to us so we are going to stay in Malibu for like 3 months." Tony said and grinned.

"Okay, I'll have some more cloths for you brought over as well then and I'll also send over some work for you… Oh and Loki's manager called and said he had some work after New Year." Tony loved when she got all project woman. They said good bye and the two men walked in to the mansion with the puppies in their arms.

"Okay on three we let them down on the floor." Tony said with a grin. Loki rolled his eyes but nodded. "One… Two… Three." He put Tyra down and Loki did the same with Lola.

Both puppies first stood there and looked around, then Tyra shook her body and started to run around the room, Lola following her. "Oh right, Salukis are sight hound's so they love to run and they can run extremely fast." Tony said with a grin.

"You know what; they have probably been locked up for some time. Let's take them down to the beach and let them run there." Loki said and walked in to the room to stop the puppies from running. They stopped fairly quickly and looked at Loki who walked up to them and picked them up again. Tony took Tyra in to his arms and they walked down to his private beach. When they got close he could feel Tyra shake with anticipation and as soon as he stepped on the sand he put her down and she took off like a speeding bullet. Lola stood still for a minute, feeling the sand before taking off as well. Tony put an arm around Loki's waist and watched their "children" run around and play. "Love you." He whispered in to his lover's ear and kissed his cheek.

Loki gave him a warm smile and caught Tony's lips in a deep kiss. When they parted and looked back at the girls who were now sitting down panting. "I guess they are done." Tony chuckled. He sat down on the sand, Loki did the same and the puppies strutted over to them and took each of them a seat in the men's laps and fell asleep.

"How about we invite the others to come over here and have a small party at New Year's Eve?" Loki asked while stroking Tyra's stomach.

"Yeah I guess that could be fun." Tony said and watched Lola fall asleep in a small bundle in his arms.

"Tyra… let go of the screwdriver." Tony said with an annoyed look on his face witched seemed to make Tyra even more play full. They had have the puppies for two days now, the avengers where coming over tomorrow for the party. Lola was obviously the calm one that often stayed with Loki when he was sitting and reading. Tyra on the other hand loved to be with Tony, especially in the lab. She was very bright and helped him sometimes to get tools that were small and harmless enough that she could carry them in her mouth. But sometimes she got bored of helping him and wanted him to play with her so she often took the screwdriver and made Tony chase her. It was cute the first time but now it could get pretty annoying. "Tyra come here." Tony said with a stern voice that made her flinch, she walked up and gave him the tool and gave him a sad look. "Oh come on not the puppy eyes." He whined and she started to jump around him in joy when the awful tone was gone. "Come on; let's see what your sister and my boyfriend are doing." Tony shut down the lab and opened the door for Tyra who ran up the stairs.

When they got up they found Loki on the terrace reading a book and Lola was lying as close as she could in his shadow. When she saw Tony and Tyra she started to wag her tale. Tyra jumped up to her and Loki and started to poke on Lola to make her want to play. They started to roll around on the sun chair, biting and wrestling each other. Loki chuckled and looked up at his lover who came up to him and kissed him gently. "Did Tyra get bored again?" Loki asked after they parted. Tony seated himself behind Loki so he could hold him.

"Can't wait until she grows up and becomes a lot more of a couch potato like Lola." Tony stated and looked at the wrestling puppies. But that wasn't the only thing he was waiting for when they grew up. He had done some research on Saluki and the pictures of a full grown Saluki were amazing; so elegant and royal. Just like Loki actually.

"You know that Lola can make trouble as well." Loki snickered and stroked one of Tony's arms that were holding him.

Yesterday Lola decided that she wanted a lot more comfy bed then the big one that was bought for the puppies. So she had gone in to their closet and managed to drag out their laundry out in to the bedroom and then made a hole in the pile of clothes and made it in to her personal cave. Loki had start to wonder where she was doing when he hadn't seen her for two hours witch worried him so he walked in there and she had just settled down in the cave of clothes. He had laughed and ruined her cave witch she wasn't so happy about so she hid under the bed for another hour until Loki showed her a big and comfy blanket. They walked to the dog bed and he placed it there and she went to work to hide in the blanket.

"Yeah well at least she doesn't take dangerous stuff and runs around with it." Tony murmured in to Loki's neck. His lover chuckled and tilted his head enough so he could kiss those lips he love so much. They were suddenly interrupted by a crash and both looked towards the crash. Tyra and Lola sneaked away from the glass that had stood on the table but was now on the ground in a thousand pieces. The men first sighed and then laughed at the puppies who tried to look as innocent as they could.

So yeah, I'm a dog person so they get dogs. Saluki is also one of my most favorite breeds and they fit them perfectly. If you don't know the color so google :P
