Chapter sixteen Chilling with a God
No trip was a trip with out munchies and of course a gift for the person you were visiting, Grandma Lewis always said. Darcy wondered if she went a little crazy her cart was full of chips, candy sodas and of course every flavor of pop tart and Oreo she could find. Oh well she was pretty sure this wouldn't last Thor a week as she headed for the check out. Okay she got crazy looks as they loaded her junk food into the massive canvas bag she'd also snagged to cart it all in but she could deal. Now she had a three hour train trip to NYC to look forward too she made sure her taser had plenty of juice.
Once settled on the train Darcy dug her phone out of her bag to call Jane and let her know she was off to see the God of abs. It rung a couple of times and Jane answered chipperly it sounded like day four caffeine buzz, well it was better than day seven hallucinations.
" Hey Jane how's looking for space goodies going." she asked which sent Jane into a rant that Darcy only understood every other word. But she made supportive hums and added what she could to the conversation until Jane stopped to take a breath.
" So I'm going to see the God of abs and make sure he's alive and well cared for by the other super heroes." she quipped Jane made a shriek that hurt her ears and started popping off questions faster than Darcy could hear them she sounded like a chipmunk on helium.
"Chill okay, I'll give you all the low down after I check on biceps." Jane huffed slightly and Darcy cut her off before she could complain.
"Any way I need to have serious talk with you." Jane was quite for millisecond than she shrieked in a way that would have made Beth very pound and could probably break glass.
" Oh My God your pregnant" Darcy sighed how the hell did she get to that point, there was no way she'd been celibate almost a year unless Steve was potent with just dry humping.
" No Jane don't jump to crazy ass conclusions." Darcy growled trying very hard not to think about curly blonde headed babies.
" I'm staying here in D.C." she said quickly scrunching her face waiting for the fall out, there was a crash and Jane squealing in her ear.
" Darcy you cant leave me with just freaking Ian as an assistant." Jane whined and Darcy sighed in relief she wasn't mad if she was whining.
" You'll be fine I'm needed to baby sit my niece as her parents are useless right now plus I got something juicy to tell you." Jane gave an exasperated huff then it was obvious her curiosity was peeked.
" What happened?" she asked almost cautiously. Darcy smirked even though she knew Jane couldn't see it.
" I met my Prince" Darcy sang out and Jane let out a long suffering sigh like she couldn't believe what was told to her.
"Oh my god Darcy Bingly Lewis please lets not go into this Disney Prince charming thing okay, you're a grown woman. Being obsessed with Disney is a little weird." Jane said in her teacher voice, luckily Darcy was immune to Jane's professor mode.
" Yeah says the woman whose dating a Norse God." like she expected Jane let go of her Disney argument and proceeded to grill Darcy like a stake about her prince charming.
Getting off the train she made sure to double check the address on her phone, wholly moley Thor lived in Stark towers. Well he was an Alien Prince God so it made sense he was use to living in luxury. As she caught sight of the tower as she headed towards it , Darcy wondered if she was sorely under dressed or if they'd even let her into the tower. She decided to call Thor and let him know she was standing outside gawking. She dialed and waited what seemed like ten rings before Thor literally shouted into the phone.
" Greetings to whom ever be on the other side of this device." Darcy couldn't help but crack up at that and shout back that it was her. Which lead to Thor booming out questions at her in a way that sort of reminded her of Jane.
" I'm outside Stark tower big guy." she told him which lead to his booming laugh and what sounded like him dropping the phone Darcy shrugged and hung up she didn't have to wait long for the God of thunder to come out. He barreled through the lobby door like a linebacker caught sight of her and all but tackled her dragging her off her feet in a tight hug that could crush bone.
" This is happy happy day lady Darcy, I am glad you came to call on me." he boomed out just as Darcy patted his back and managed to squeak out
" Need to breathe big guy." he let her down and Darcy was impressed that Thor was wearing normal clothes, jeans and a green Henley.
" Let us go in and toast this day" he boomed out it seemed Thor still had no volume control. But it was something that made Thor likable as she followed him in to the tower past the security guards desk and into the elevator hit the penthouse button and she watched as a hidden panel slid out with a series of little buttons each had a symbol, Thor pushed the one with a little hammer. With in a matter of seconds the elevator ascended to Thor's floor and the doors slid open with a hush revealing a very viking period looking room. Darcy wondered why the men in her life favored antiques as she dropped on to a recliner made of horns and furs.
"Nice digs big guy it looks like their taking good care of you, your mane is shiny and your eyes are bright." she said jokingly as Thor headed to a large marble bar.
" I do not understand your jest Lady Darcy." but he was still smiling as he pulled out two massive tankards that looked to be made of bone. that's when Darcy noticed there was a large as in God sized wooden keg on one end of the bar. Thor turned the little spigot on it and a thick golden amber liquid spilled into the tankards and began to foam.
" What kind of beer is that?" she asked with a raised eyebrow Thor laughed and shook his head at her like she was being a silly girl, he offered her a mug and she took it inhaling its scent it smelled like honey.
" No Midgardain brew can hold a candle to an Asgardain brew, even one as low in alcohol like this one. Its honey mead even young children on Asgard drink this i do not think anyone in this tower could handle ale." Darcy snorted and shook her head at him
" Is that a challenge oh God of Thunder?" she said with a wide grin,Thor boomed out another laugh and ruffled Darcy's curls.
" Oh i'm sure if anyone could it would be you lady Darcy, you've a spirit of a shield maiden." he said proudly, Darcy figured he meant that as a complement and smiled back. He raised his tankard and she followed suit they slammed them together sloshing mead and she couldn't help but giggle.
"Too our friendship" he boomed and she echoed just as loud and Thor began to drink his down in one gulp not to be out done Darcy followed suit and couldn't help but hum at the taste sweet like drinking liquid honey, course Thor beat her in downing it and she slammed her tankard down on to the horned arm of her chair .
"Another." she said loudly grinning as Thor laughed brightly and yelled another tossing his empty tankard to the ground.
