Darcy Pov:

Darcy Lewis was not a happy camper. No, she wasn't being funny either. In fact she was downright pissed. She couldn't believe the little prick cheated on her! Granted she had been feeling a little trapped and complacent, but she had been hoping that Tony's retreat and him finally knowing all of her life would bring them closer, but the little asshole cheated on her! She had found out on accident of course, she had swung by his place to see if he'd gotten her email list on what to pack as they were leaving in a week, imagine her surprise when she catches him pounding away on his next door neighbor. You wouldn't think that she was in the process of being trained by S.H.I.E.L.D as an assassin, by her reaction, she wasn't anywhere close to being as good as Natasha, but still could have broken his arm or many other appendages that he liked. Darcy still assisted Jane in her experiments, including her most current to help rebuild the "Bifrost" that Thor and Loki destroyed in their battle a while back. Now that she wasn't going on the trip (She didn't want to be around all those couples getting it in, while she was alone) she was going to help Jane compute her data so when she returned she could start her first test phase. She was spending the day with Jane so that she could make sure she had all the information she needed.

"...okay so the data should be coming in rather steadily. You will want to be taking note of all of the information coming out, and then entering it into the other data simulator. The run a test, take the results and make notes. You will need to do this for every set of data you receive."

Darcy blanched a little bit, not exactly sure how she could handle doing all if this by herself. Jane saw the panicked look on her face and smiled a bit.

"Don't worry I realize this is a two person job, but that's why I've already arranged for you to be working with someone this week."

"And who is my unlucky soul?"

Darcy said touching the tips of her fingers together in a mock evil scientist motion with a smile.

"Well... It's Loki."

Darcy's smile faded immediately. Loki made her life hell when he was around! She spent a majority of the time arguing with him, the rest was spent ignoring him. Yes she was glad he wasn't trying to kill everyone and holding a grudge against Thor anymore, but he still was a snarky, moody, asshole that she spent time avoiding at all cost. She wasn't sure why everyone liked him; then again he didn't treat anyone else like he treated her. He found every opportunity to try and make her feel inadequate to him. The only reason she was tolerating this was for Jane.

"Jane..."

She whined, hoping her doe eyes and puppy dog lip would get her out if this.

"Darcy it won't be so bad."

"Yea for you, Ms." My Fiancé is a supermodel, alien, superhero" going on a couples retreat."

"He is not my Fiancé. He's my boyfriend."

"He's not my Fiancé"... Yet. Just you wait."

"Don't make this about me."

"Jane darling this whole experiment is about you. Now please, PLEASE don't make me work with him."

"Darcy I need you. I know you two aren't the best for friends but could you do this for me."

"And nobody from S.H.I.E.L.D can help?"

"No. Plus he's got inside knowledge, centuries of it on his side about the Bifrost. He can be a real asset to this project. I already had plans to bring him on later, but now is a good of a time as any. And this will put him in an even better position with Fury."

"You know he doesn't care about anything Director Fury thinks of him."

"Yes, but Thor seems to, and I for one want to help. Now please just do this for me."

Jane flipped the puppy dog look back on Darcy and, Darcy caved. She had already promised to help Jane anyhow.

"Grr... Fine. But you better hope when you come back he is in one peace."

"I expect you two will be fine. Now I've got some packing left, plus the last time Thor tried to pack the refrigerator, when I asked him to pack the food that was inside of it, imagine the look on Agent Hill's face when I had to put in a request for a new refrigerator in our room.

"Have fun, get laid for me!"

Jane rolled her eyes and blushed at the comment, while Darcy plopped into a chair after she turned the corner. She needed something to do with her time when she wasn't down here crunching data. She couldn't do any training while half the S.H.I.E.L.D staff was on the retreat. The techs assigned to keep watch on potential threats weren't equipped to train her, so she had a week of self practice, or maybe just a week to chill and watch corny romcoms with her best friends Ben and Jerry and maybe her acquaintance Haägen-Dazs if he was free. It had a while since she had time alone. Graduating from college student to S.H.I.E.L.D operative didn't leave a lot of time. She loved feeling like she was a part of something, but the downside was that she missed her days in, where she'd lounge around in an old too large tee-shirt and her socks rocking out to her iPod speakers.

Yes, that was what she would do. But first she had to tell a certain Asgardian what time to meet her down in the lab for the week they were working together.

She secured the lab and left it to go to his rooms that were only down the hall from her own...

Once there she knocked and knocked with no answer. Thor came out of his room to see who was knocking on his brother's door.

"Lady Darcy, I suppose you're looking for my brother?"

"Yea, I needed to tell him what time to meet me in the lab in the morning. Do you know where he is?"

"He spoke of going to Asgard today to see our mother. Would you like for me to tell him for you?"

"Yea, we start tomorrow at 8 am for data extraction. Can you have him meet me down there?"

"As you wish. Oh and don't worry, I've instructed my brother to behave while we are on leave."

Darcy smiled at Thor and nodded at him.

"Thanks Thor. Enjoy your trip."

"Thank you. Well wishes to you as well."

Then he turned and entered his own room.

Not having to talk to Loki had made her day significantly better. She decided to go get her things for her week of relaxation...

*The next Morning*

Darcy instantly regretted having Loki meet her at the lab at 8am. It was 6am and she had to be up this early to do her sunrise yoga and then have time for a shower. Dressed in her favorite pair of black yoga pants and a lime green tank top she grabbed her yoga mat and made her way to the roof, which Tony had already gave his express permission to use, (well more like pepper had and Tony looking to have fun this week agreed) on the mocking condition she watered his non existing plants. She normally doesn't do her yoga outside, but seeing as she knew Stark tower was practically on shut down, nobody will see her, so she was going to take the chance and go.

The air was typical New York air, but it was much quieter. The view was spectacular from up here. Darcy had J.A.R.V.I.S. play some relaxing Zen music and started to move into some more difficult poses. She was moving into the bridge pose when she heard.

"Leave it to you to take over the one area I use."

Startled she dropped to her butt, and her back.

"Ouch. Shit what are you doing here?"

"That is a question I should be asking you. I am here every morning for mediation, why are you here?"

Darcy picked herself off the ground when Loki made his way over to her.

"I am up here for sunrise yoga. I usually do this in my room, but Tony and Pepper gave me access to the place for the week."

She dusted her pants off and missed the glance over her body from Loki.

"Well now you may leave I need silence for my mediation, and your panting like a animal in the summer heat in quite annoying and concentration breaking."

Darcy huffed and looked at him incredulously.

"You cannot be serious. You standing at the door frame for god knows how long is creepy and unwelcome, you ass."

Arms crosses behind his back, he smirked and went to sit down on the ledge where Tony could plop down and robot arms would remove his suit for him. She decided to keep performing, and just as she went to sit down her mat disappeared. She looked at Loki who had a smirk on his face.

"Give it back now."

Without looking at her he spoke.

"Give what back my clueless mortal?"

"My yoga mat. I know you've zapped it somewhere with your little magic trick."

"It is more than a mere magic trick."

"I don't give a crap Loki. Give me back my mat so I can finish my workout. Where is it?"

"Hopefully it landed in your fire pitch, but I'm sure it's in your room."

"Bring it back. Now!"

His right eye popped open and he smirked.

"And what will you do if I don't? It's not like you can fight me or anything."

Darcy tired of his smug attitude decided to switch her plan. After all Natasha had taught her a thing or two about how to lose the innocence in her eyes and get what she wanted, she just hoped it would work. She sauntered over to his ledge.

"Please Loki, can't you just give it to me?"

She was standing behind him; hand on hip, chest thrust forward.

"Depends what are you willing to do to get it?"

Darcy going along with him (For her mat, she told herself) decided to lean forward.

"Come on can I please have it back. I'll cut off the music and practice in silence.

She tried giving him a sexy look, to which he promptly busted out laughing at her."

"You my dear should work on your smolder."

She growled, and gave up. She was about 5 seconds from pushing him over the edge and there was no Chitari aircraft to catch his ass this time.

"Oh FUCK YOU LOKI!"

She stormed off, her morning successful ruined, but not before she heard...

"Just name the time and place Lady Darcy."

Loki yelled back snickering at her. She slammed the door to Tony's apartment and went into her own room one level down. She proceeds to get ready for the day and promises herself that she will not let the God of Mischief irk her anymore today...
