…Chapter Ten…

…One month later…

Samantha started wearing baggy clothing, like, bigger shirts and loose fitting jeans or lounge pants, and yoga pants, just something more comfortable, because her, Darcy, and Steve's been noticing that she's been showing a little bit, and Samantha still has to hid it from everyone.

Lately, Samantha and Steve's been spending a lot of time together and as much as she enjoys being around him, she misses Loki terribly. When she isn't hanging with Steve, she's either hanging out with Jane or Darcy, or in her room on her laptop, while he, Clint, Natasha, Thor, Bruce, and Tony are training for Loki's upcoming take over. She's also gotten closer with Tony and Clint, in a 'big brothers' type of way.

...

Fury had allowed Samantha to leave headquarters to go to her doctors appointment, which she told him that it was a yearly check up and she just couldn't put it off any longer, but it really wasn't. This was her first time seeing any kind of doctor for the baby. Even though Fury didn't know the real reason, he didn't care, as long as someone went with her, so she had Steve go.

Steve was in the waiting room, while Samantha had gone in for her check up. After twenty minutes, she walked out, and went up to him, and he looked up. "So, how is everything?" he asked, putting a magazine down next to him.

"Well, the baby wasn't cooperating during the ultrasound, so we couldn't see if it was a girl or boy. I, on the other hand, think that it was too soon, but whatever." she chuckled.

"Bummer." Steve stood up. "Maybe next time."

"Yeah, but other than that, I'm healthy, the baby is healthy, and growing the way it should be."

"Good, that's good, since his father is, you know who." Samantha smacked his arm and he chuckled a little. "I'm kidding… so, you ready to go?"

"Yeah." she nodded, then they walked out of the doctors office, and got into the car.

Steve started the engine and drove off. "Anywhere else you want to go?"

"Nah, we shouldn't. Fury might send the Calvary or something."

"Yeah." Steve chuckled. "You're probably right." then he gave her a slight smile, before holding her hand. Samantha glanced down and smiled a little, then laced her fingers with his, and looked out the window, enjoying the ride.

After Steve and Samantha got to headquarters, he parked the car in it's spot, and got out. Samantha opened her door, but when she got out, she suddenly felt dizzy, and lost her footing, making her hit her head on the corner of the car door. She would have almost hit the ground, but Steve caught her in time. "Shit, Sammy, are you okay?"

"Yeah." she took a few deep breaths, before standing up straight. "I stood up too fast and I got dizzy. I'm fine, really."

"You're bleeding. Your head." he shut the car door and grabbed her hand. "Let's get you a band-aid." then both of them went inside.

...

Fury gazed through the one sided mirror, keeping his eye on Loki - who was chained up and surrounded by guards, ready to shoot him if necessary. Not too long ago, Fury had the Avengers - minus Steve - to capture Loki and bring him in.

When he questioned Loki about his plans, Loki told him that he had a sudden change of heart. Of course, him being the God of Lies, Fury nor the rest of the agents or Avengers believed a word that came out of his mouth. But what was odd about this whole situation - how easy it was to capture him. Loki didn't even put up a fight and they wanted to know why.

Fury nodded over at Coulson. "Get him in the cage."

"Alright." he walked out of the little room and opened the door to the other. "Let's go." he told the guards, then them and Loki walked down the hallway.

As Loki turned his head, he glanced in the window and his eyes widened - where he saw Samantha sitting on the counter with the guy he knew as Captain America, right in front of her, putting a band-aid on her forehead.

Samantha looked beautiful, of course. She had some kind of glow to her as she was smiling and laughing, but then what he saw next made his blood boil. He turned his head forward and kept walking with the guards figuring out his next move out of there, and with a little insurance.

...

"Thanks for putting on my band-aid, Doctor Steve."

"You're welcome, Sammy." he chuckled, smiling at her.

"Oh, am I interrupting?" both of them heard, moments later.

"No, Clint…" Samantha carefully hopped off the counter and smiled at him. "What's up?"

Clint ignored her question and looked right at Steve. "Suit up. We caught Loki."

"What?" Samantha's eyes widened.

"Yeah." he looked over at her. "He's in Banners cage."

"I'll be right there."

"Okay." Clint nodded at Steve, then walked out.

Steve saw the look on Samantha's face. "What?"

"With Loki caught, they're gonna kill him."

"He's a bad guy, Sammy, and he wants to destroy everything."

"He won't do anything, if I talk to him… please, I have to talk to him."

Steve sighed, seeing the sad look in her eyes. "Let me see what I can do."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." he kissed her forehead where the band-aid was. "I gotta go." she nodded, then he walked out of the room.

...

About two hours had passed and Fury told Samantha that her talking to Loki was a bad idea and he wouldn't let her, so she decided to take it upon herself to do it anyway. After she tricked the guards into leaving their post, she took a few deep breaths before going inside, and there he was - leaning up against the glass, staring at the ground, deep in thought. She went up the little steps and stood in front of him. "Loki?"

He snapped his head over and scoffed. "Well, well, well… Samantha, what are you doing here?"

"I needed to talk to you."

"For what?" he raised his hands. "We have nothing to discuss."

"What?" that stung her a little. "What do you mean?"

"You and I." he held one hand on the window, with anger and jealousy in his eyes. "Have nothing to discuss." he repeated. "So, why are you even here?"

Samantha's eyes got all watery. "Why are you being like this?"

"Because, Sammy." she noticed the mocking tone as he rolled his eyes. "I do what I want." he chuckled, then slowly paced back and forth. "I told your friends that I had a change of heart, about my plans of ruling the Earth, but now." he stopped and glared at her. "I changed my mind."

"What? Why? Loki, you don't have to do this. They'll kill you if you do."

Loki shrugged. "They can try."

"I don't want them to kill you at all… you're important to me." Loki laughed out loud, then Samantha winced. "It's true."

"Important to you?" he looked at her incredulously.

"Yes, you are."

"And why should I believe you?"

"Because, I'm…" she paused and slightly shook her head. "Because you just are, okay?"

Loki smirked sadistically as he waved both of his hands, which revealed a blue floating cube in front of him. "Not good enough."

...

Steve couldn't find Samantha anywhere and he felt as is something was wrong as he went into the command room - where everyone else was at. Suddenly, he heard her voice on the intercom and his eyes flew to the screen. He saw her talking to Loki and then Steve glared at Fury. "I thought you weren't going to let her in there."

"We knew she'd go in there, regardless, with or without my permission, so we just want to see what would happen and if he'd tell her any kind of information."

"Oh, shit." Tony called out. "What the hell is that?"

"He has the Casket?" Thor asked, surprised. "Why does he have the Casket?"

"He turned blue."

Thor glanced at Clint, clearly in shock. "He's a Jotenn."

"A what?" Natasha asked.

"Frost Giant." he whispered, then him, the Avengers, Fury and the rest of the agents watched in horror as Loki froze the glass with the cube, break through it, and grab Samantha. Loki did a little wave to the camera, with a sadistic smile, then both of them vanished into thin air.
