Author: " Do I really Have to say this?"

* Author is holding a note card written by Loki*

Loki:Yes. Say it so everyone can hear you, Mortal.

Author: Loki Laufeyson is the most incredible Lover, and I am his property...

* Loki jumps up and snatches the card out of her hand*

Loki: READ THE OTHER SIDE! Nobody wants to hear about my formidable bedroom talents...

Author: I think that's why they're all here Love.

Loki: Just read already, or I promise a severe punishment.

Author: Is that A promise?

* Loki Glares, Author pouts*

Author: Fine, I do not own anything recognizable, it all belongs to Marvel. There are you happy now? I said it.

Loki:I'll be happier once you kneel before me...

Ok so that popped into my head, and I couldn't resist. LMAO! In all seriousness this is chapter 6. I told you guys you wouldn't have to wait that long.

:)

Darcy was not excited to see Jace at all. In fact she wondered if she could tase him and get away fast enough.

"Jace."

"I just wanted to apologize about how things ended."

The blonde on his arm snorted and she knew this whole "I'm sorry" bit was more of a "In your face" moment. She wasn't sure what to do, or say. What do you say to the two people who had crushed your heart and spirit less than two weeks ago?

"Oh that little incident, it's cool."

"Really, well that's good. Hey I thought your retreat with Stark was this week?"

"It was I..."

"Oh I forgot it was a couples' retreat. You couldn't go."

"It not that..."

"Oh there you are beautiful. I've been looking for you."

Loki walked up next to Darcy and gripped her hip, pulling her closer to his body. Darcy mouth hung open.

"Loki?"

What was he doing?

"Oh yes, Love definitely Loki."

"Excuse me, but your name is Loki?"

"Umm... No, he…"

She decided to play along; payback was well deserved in this situation.

"No his name isn't Loki, its Luke. I just call him Loki because he's brilliant and yet so mischievous."

"It's a habit I can't seem to break yet."

"And I don't want him to."

"You've certainly moved on quick."

"About as quick as you did, and at least I broke up with you first, but you know I should thank you and Kasey over there."

"Oh this is the guy?"

Loki said like there had been a major trash talking session about the guy, that he wasn't aware of.

"Yes honey this is Jace."

"Oh I was wondering if I'd ever meet you. I just want to thank you for being an asshole, if you hadn't been, I don't think I would have had a chance to make her mine."

"Don't pretend you know anything about our relationship..."

"Hey boys...now hold on."

Darcy held back the laughter and stood between the two men.

"Jace it's cool. I've got over what happened. Things have to fall apart to fall together.

Loki pulled her closer to him again; she could feel his body heat coming from him. Damn him, why did he smell so good?"

"Well this little reunion is enough awkwardness for me. Jace, I can't say it's been pleasant, but I hope life does you some good. Loki and I have to go."

They didn't give Jace the chance to respond and they began to walk away, but loud enough for the two they left to hear, Darcy said

"I think we need some more whipped cream; you used it all last night."

She winked at him, hoping to irritate Jace further.

"It was my pleasure to do so love."

Darcy wasn't expecting his response and her jaw dropped. Loki enjoyed helping her; he had listened to her stutter long enough. He couldn't let that smug bastard get away with him saying stuff to her, especially not after she cried over this yesterday. He liked the image they put out and to have her body pressed close to him. Her warmth radiating through his cold bones. The next thing they knew Loki was turning her head toward his and pressed a kiss to her lips...

Darcy's breath caught in her chest, and she relished in the feeling of his soft lips pressed to hers. She knew he had done it to help her story be more believable but he had no idea about the fire storm he had set about all over her body. She wanted to jump him right here in the middle of the store. Her face flushed and she stared into his eyes.

"Umm... So let get that whipped cream shall we?"

*Back in Darcy's Room*

Loki had teleported them both back home, and the room was silent as Darcy unpacked their bags. She couldn't take the silence anymore and the questions in her head were driving her crazy.

"Loki, can we talk?"

"If we must."

"Yes we must, first off thank you for helping me at the store. That was so embarrassing."

"I was right in my earlier assumption."

"About what Loki?"

"That woman has nothing on your beauty. Please do not ever feel inferior to her."

"Thank you."

She blushed again.

L. And to your earlier statement. It was not a problem to step in. In fact it was my pleasure.

"Which brings me to my next pleasure...shit…Umm... I meant question."

Loki smirked at her, taking a seat at the dining room table.

"Ok, go ahead."

"Why did you kiss me in the store tonight?"

"Why wouldn't I?"

"Meaning?"

"Darcy are you that blissfully unaware of your attractiveness? It certainly does not bother me to kiss you, and it helped cover our falsities."

D. Your flattery is nice, unneeded but pleasant enough.

"It's not flattery."

Loki was frustrated with Darcy, why couldn't she see herself clearly? He had fantasized about her ever since he saw her on the roof. He stood up and crossed the room to stand in front of her.

"Shall I kiss you again to prove, that this... should we call it... tension between us is not my simple flattery."

He leaned down once more at Darcy silence and kissed her. This was more than the peck at the store. This was an all-encompassing kiss. Loki loved tasting her kiss, and wanted more so he searched for more. His tongue poked against her lips, and Darcy granted access to her mouth. Their tongues battled for dominance and Darcy relented to him. Her legs were too weak to hold her up and she felt like jelly in his arms. He didn't have any objections to having to hold her. They kissed fast and furiously until they needed to breathe.

Out of breath, she panted as she spoke.

"Wow."

"Agreed."

They looked at each other before Darcy latched back onto him by the lips. Loki backed her up until she was against the counter, effortlessly he picked her up and she spread her legs so he could stand in between them. When the need to breathe arose again, Loki took the time to start kissing down her neck and let his hands slide up her jean covered thighs. Darcy started shaking a bit at his gentle kisses on her collarbone. She wanted more, but she knew this had to stop before she lost all coherent thought and wouldn't stop him at all.

"Loki..."

He continued to kiss, different parts of her exposed neck, and then he started unbuttoning her shirt.

"Loki please, we've got to stop."

He stopped his movements, to look at her while he kept unbuttoning her shirt.

"Why Miss. Lewis? I dare to say you enjoy it."

"Oh trust me I am..."

"Good, then let me continue."

He kissed that spot on her neck that soaked her panties, and made her scratch at the back of his head.

"Holy...Loki w...we can't d…do t…his tonight."

Loki pulled away again and pouted. A comical look on the God of Mischief.

"Are you no longer interested?"

"Oh god please, I am very interested, that's the problem."

"I'm confused."

"I don't want to mess up anything, by letting this get out of hand."

"Will it?"

"Yes it will, it always gets messy, and I've never been the girl to have sex with no strings attached. As hot as you are, and trust me I want you, I can't."

He helped her down.

"Who said anything about strings? You are into restraints Lady Darcy? Well not to worry I am too on occasion. Do not feel embarrassed."

Darcy looked at him with her signature shocked look on her face. Though the thought of Loki tying her to her bed, while he did naughty things to her body was something she didn't want to ignore.

"No Loki, no string attached means that we have sex without any type of commitment or emotions besides self-pleasure involved."

Loki pondered her question. She must know not he did not bed women he had no connection to. Even as the Prince of Asgard did he engage in such actions, it was more Thor's style, seeing as he was the more sought after out of the two. He every intention of courting Darcy properly if he was given the chance. Loki liked Darcy more than he ever imagined he would, it would be a long shot because he had been such a bastard to her, then again that was to cover the feelings he had for her, even from himself.

"Lady Darcy what makes you think I would engage in such an act without a commitment of some sort?"

"I... I... you've never said anything about that. Most state their intentions beforehand. You want to be in a relationship with me?"

"Oh yes. Very much so."

"And you're not just saying this to get in my pants are you?"

"Into your pants? Darcy why would I want to wear your pants? Mine are quite comfortable as they are."

Darcy started laughing and they began to kiss again...

The next morning...

Darcy woke up feeling more content than she had ever remembered being. She snuggled closer into the warmth behind her, wait...warmth behind her? Her middle was being held onto by a heavy arm that wasn't her own. She breathed in the scent of Loki and realized it was him. They hadn't done anything last night but talk and make out, but it nice enough for her. She felt sorta bad about making him wait for sex, especially since she could feel his very impressive morning wood poking her in her lower back. It beginning to make her want to smack herself for telling him she wanted to wait. She laid there thinking about what she was getting into by going into a relationship with Loki. She knew Thor and Tony wouldn't care about them dating. Clint and Natasha wouldn't care as long as she knew what she walking into with Loki, besides Tony and Clint cracked jokes all the time about how Loki needed to get laid, so it would be nothing but an endless barrage of sex jokes from them. Dr. Banner who had nothing to fear from Loki, would calmly tell her that as long as she was sure, then he'd be ok with it. Steve would try to remind her of all the bad stuff, but wish her luck if it was truly what I wanted to do after he made his speech, it was her life. Jane was one of her best friends, so she'd always side with her. The only three she was worried about would be Fury, Hill and Coulson. Coulson as her superior would highly recommend against her fraternizing with Loki (He has never gotten over that whole attempted murder with a spear thing). Hill would call her a complete idiot for risking her life. Nick, oh Nick Fury's head will pop off when he finds out. He will fuss and cuss about it, and what else she wasn't sure.

"You've stared at the wall for 10 minutes Darcy. Are you ok?"

"I'm ok, just trying to pre-gage everyone's reactions for when they return about us. Well that is if you want to tell people..."

"It makes me no difference. If you wish to tell people I will go along with it. I know your mine, that's all that matters to me."

Darcy smiled and turned around to look at his face. It was a sight to see his normally, perfectly placed hair in disarray on top of his head. She laughed a bit.

"What's so funny?"

"Your hair. It's different to see it all over your head."

"Well when you have somebody running their hands through it, while she torturing you with her body, it tends to do that."

Darcy felt instantly bad again, and tried to get up, so that she wouldn't make him feel worse. He stopped her and pulled her body so that it was laying flush across his.

"I didn't say that was a bad thing now did I? I happen to like the torture."

She leaned down and kissed him for the first time of the day. She wouldn't tell him, but she enjoyed waking up in his arms, and he wouldn't tell her that he enjoyed waking up to her in his arms...

*Vanaheim*

"Darcy you will never learn anything if you quit before you've even tried."

Darcy and Loki were now on Vanaheim, where Loki was trying to get her to run up the steepest hill she had ever met.

"Come on man! That hill is huge, and you want me to RUN up it?! Hill doesn't even hate me this much."

"Exactly why you haven't learned anything in her care, and I don't hate you. If I hated you, I'd make you carry weights up this hill, now move."

Darcy knew he was right and she had to suck it up, if she wanted any chance of holding her own against somebody like him. She took off at a steady pace, and about half way up her legs were burning so bad that they went on auto pilot and she was ready to kill Loki, who was laughing as he ran next to her.

"*pant* I've got *pant* one *pant* thing to*pant* say *pant* to you *Pant* the entire *Pant* '80's decade *pant* and *pant* '90's boy bands!"

Things got a little hot now didn't they? Coming Soon, the rest of the Avengers come back from the retreat, some long-held secrets are revealed and of course a bit of lemon action of the next couple of chapters...
