Chapter Twenty

Willow had insisted that Thor be allowed to see the Victorian house, so Thor met them there before they would travel to Asgard.

"Now, how are we getting to Asgard? I don't exactly know how traveling between the realms works," Willow explained, standing between the two brothers. Before Willow could demand an answer, she felt like she was being pulled and in an instant, she was standing on solid earth again. For a minute, her head was spinning and then she dropped her duffel bag, bending over to place her hands on her thighs. When she stood upright, her eyes widened.

"Welcome to Asgard, Willow," Thor said brightly and Willow nodded. As he began to walk forward, Willow picked up her bag and looked at Loki. He was watching her with an amused expression.

"Asgard is a lot nicer than you let on," Willow pointed out, eyeing Loki. He merely smiled and walked ahead of Willow.

According to Thor, they arrived on the outskirts of the city. Loki walked in step with Willow and their trek was silent. Willow gazed at her surroundings and was in awe. People walked around, greeting Thor with a smile, but Loki was resented.

When they finally arrived at the palace, Thor opened mighty double doors that looked like they were painted with gold. The walk to the throne was long and Thor didn't look back. He made his way to Odin and Frigga.

"My son," Odin greeted Thor and Frigga stepped forward to give him a hug. When she noticed Willow, she smiled and held out her hand, beckoning Willow to come forward.

"You must be Willow," Frigga assumed and Willow nodded with a shy smile, "I am sure your journey was tiring. I will show you to the room you will be staying in."

Frigga walked down from the dais and Willow gave Loki a confident smile before following Frigga out of the room. The two women walked silently until Frigga said, "It is wonderful to meet you."

"Thank you for allowing me to come," Willow replied, her gaze shifting to the architecture of the palace.

"How did you come to meet my son?" Frigga wondered, stopping in front of a set of large double doors.

"Which son are you referring to?" Willow asked and Frigga opened the doors. A large bedroom lay before her. The bed was probably much larger than an average king-sized bed and everything else was as immaculate. Frigga took a seat on a couch in the room and patted the space next to her for Willow. Reluctantly, Willow sat beside Frigga.

"I am referring to Loki. How is it you met him? I am eager to learn how you came to know him," Frigga explained and Willow gave the woman a soft smile.

"Perhaps it would be best if Loki was present. I think he would like to explain as well," Willow explained.

"I understand. This will be your room for your stay. If you have any questions or concerns, Loki and Thor are down the hall. Loki's room is next to yours I believe," Frigga said, patted Willow's leg, and stood from the chair.

"Loki's room is next door?" Willow was surprised.

"I thought you would prefer to remain close to him. Now, I must return. I do hope you like your room." Frigga left with a kind smile and Willow sighed.

Standing from the couch, Willow made her way over to the bed and fell down onto it. The material was soft and made Willow sigh. After a few minutes, Willow got up to search through the wardrobe, only to find gowns of different shades of green. It made Willow smile. She looked through the selection and found her favorite, pulling it out. As she held it up to herself, her door opened.

"That is my favorite," Loki mentioned.

"How was speaking with Odin?" Willow wondered, putting the dress back.

"At Thor's request, I will stay here, but I must remain within the palace walls," Loki explained.

"Aw, now we can't go on midnight strolls," Willow said sarcastically. Loki smiled and walked further into the room.

"My father is hosting a feast in honor of Thor's return. He requests that you come," Loki said and walked over to the wardrobe to grab the dress Willow had just put back.

"There's no way you'd go without me," Willow pointed out, placing her hands on her hips. Loki approached her and pulled her close.

A blush reached Willow's cheeks and Loki ran his thumb across her cheek. Then, his lips captured hers. Willow wrapped her arms around his neck and the kiss grew more urgent. A sharp knock on the door made Willow jump and move away from Loki.

"You probably shouldn't be here," Willow figured and looked at the door. Loki gave her a quick kiss and vanished.

Willow walked over to the door and found a stranger standing there.

"Lady Willow, I'm to help prepare you for the feast tonight," she said softly.

"Oh, okay. What's your name?" Willow wondered, standing in the doorway still. She wouldn't let the stranger in until she knew her name.

"You may call me Sunhild, Lady Willow," she replied with a quick curtsey.

"Please, come in," Willow said and moved out of the way to let Sunhild inside.

When Sunhild entered, she immediately went to work, looking through Willow's wardrobe. She picked out one of the only white dresses and Willow instantly refused.

"What is wrong with this gown? It will be lovely for Prince Thor," Sunhild said brightly and Willow almost choked.

"Let's go with this one," Willow pointed out, holding up the dress Loki liked.

"Very well, my lady," Sunhild gave in and helped Willow into the gown.

Loki had dressed for the occasion and held his helmet under his arm, anxiously awaiting Willow. Frigga placed a hand on Loki's shoulder and gave him a smile.

"You seem anxious," Frigga noticed.

"Do I?" Loki inquired with a smirk.

"She is lovely, Loki," Frigga mentioned and just as Loki was about to reply, Willow entered the hall. Her hair was braided to the side and she wore the gown Loki liked the best.

As Willow walked over to Loki, Frigga left to join Odin.

"I don't look strange, do I?" Willow asked, biting her lip.

"You are beautiful," Loki said and wrapped an arm around Willow's waist, pulling her closer to him.

"The girl who tried to help me thought I was with Thor, but she failed to notice the amount of green in my wardrobe," Willow explained and Loki shook his head.

"Foolish girl," Loki muttered and Willow stood on her toes to kill him.

Thor patted Loki on the back when he approached and Willow grinned.

"You boys are so cute together," Willow gushed and Loki sighed.

"You look very fetching, Willow," Thor noted and Willow smiled.

"Unfortunately, I'm already taken." Willow held Loki's hand and leaned into him. Thor nodded with a grin and went to greet his friends, the Warriors Three.

Frigga watched Loki and Willow together, talking quietly. Willow would laugh and Loki would smirk in response to seeing Willow's smile.

"He appears happy with the mortal," Odin noticed and Frigga smiled at her husband.

"Willow has not told me how she met Loki, but I believe they will tell us in time," Frigga assumed and continued watching how the two interacted with each other.

The party didn't end as Willow thought it would when it grew later in the evening. Willow yawned and turned to Loki who was people-watching.

"I'm going to head back to my room," Willow mentioned and Loki smiled.

"Do you remember where it is?" Loki inquired, leaning toward Willow.

"Um, I don't exactly-no, I don't," Willow replied with a shrug. Loki stood and held his hand out for Willow. She took it and he led her down the hall.

As they walked, Willow continued to marvel at the architecture of Asgard. When Loki stopped, they were standing in front of Willow's door. She smiled at him and opened the doors. Everything had been cleaned up from Sunhild helping Willow get ready.

"Where did that girl put the clothes I had earlier?" Willow demanded, looking around the room.

"She took them away, I believe," Loki mused, watching Willow.

"She's a dead woman," Willow grumbled and there was a knock on the door. Thor stood there, his gaze set on Loki.

"Father wishes a word with us both," Thor mentioned and Loki nodded. When Thor disappeared, Willow walked over to Loki.

"Better follow Thor. It must be important," Willow figured and Loki kissed her forehead.

After he left the room, Willow searched for something decent to wear to bed. The best thing she could find was a light nightgown that wasn't too revealing. When Willow changed into that, she got into bed and rested her head on one of the soft pillows. It was so comfortable that Willow fell asleep almost immediately.

Thanos stood out in the chaos. He watched Willow closely and pointed to her, making it known that she was his target. Willow waited; her wings still as she watched. Suddenly, Ragnar appeared out of the fray and began walking toward Willow. Taking a deep breath, Willow told herself it was only an illusion. When the illusion didn't fade, Willow narrowed her eyes at Thanos.

"Are you prepared for his death once again?" Thanos taunted her and Willow rushed forward. She moved past Ragnar and pulled a knife from her belt. Thanos moved quickly and stood behind her, with her hands immobile. He took her own knife and stabbed her with it.

Willow was breathing heavily when she woke. She made sure she hadn't actually been stabbed and with a sigh of relief, she found she hadn't been stabbed. Throwing the covers off her body, she got out of bed and made her way to the open window. Asgard was silent and so Willow let her wings unfurl. She fell from the window and found a spot on the palace to watch. It unnerved her that those dreams could follow her to Asgard. The few minutes of fresh air calmed Willow and when she returned to her room, she found Loki waiting.

"What are you doing here?" Willow wondered and Loki scanned Willow's face.

"You cried out in your sleep," Loki pointed out.

"I didn't think I cried out," Willow mused and then sighed.

"You had another dream," Loki figured and Willow nodded.

"Thanos killed me," Willow replied, letting out a sigh, "and he used Ragnar to distract me."

"Do you believe your dreams will come true?" Loki asked, standing across from Willow.

"I really hope they don't," Willow said and ran her hand through her hair. Her wings furled and she gave Loki a half-smile.

So was it weird? Or cool? I love how the servant thinks Willow is with Thor :) Hope you liked!
