Alright, here we go again. I'm gunna update 3 or 4 times in the next day so be ready for a bomb of chapter! I don't own the Avengers or anything, except me OC Athena. Also, yes this is slightly OOC.
Athena woke up early that morning and looked out the window. It was snowing heaving, leaving ice-like frost against her window. It was oddly peaceful to her. She sighed and went into the bathroom. Grabbing a comb, she started to untangle her long un-even hair. She wondered if she was going to need to get a haircut since her hair was not in the best condition.
After un-mangling her hair, she went in and looked for something to wear. A plain white dress? Sure why not. After changing, she sat on her bed and pondered what to do next. She looked at the alarm clock and saw 6:30. She gave herself a mental face-palm.
Taking her risks, she quietly opened her door and tip-toed to Loki's door. "You awake?" she whispered softly. "I am. Come in." She heard a tired voice say. Pushing the door open, she saw Loki in a casual suit. "What do you need now?" he said giving her his trademark smirk.
"Well nothing much," She said sitting on the edge of the bed. "Don't lie to the god of lies." He said with a laugh. "I wasn't done." Athena said with a held back smile. She stared into his bright green eyes. She could feel the tension, as an automatic staring contest started.
"I need a haircut. I haven't had one in at least 3 or 4 years." Loki frowned, pondering the question. "Why are you asking me?" He asked. "I thought you could cut it.. or ask Stark for me." Loki looked at her. He furrowed his brow. "Perhaps…" He said laughing to himself.
So she wouldn't ask Stark because of his attitude? How Cute. "You do relies what today is?" He said, walking over to his dresser. "No, what's today?" she said confused. "Christmas." He said, smirking. "Oh right… I don't have anything to give you." "That's not the point." He said quietly.
Loki grabbed something from his dresser and walked over .Sitting down next to Athena, he opened his hand and handed her a small velvet pouch. "Open it." He said with a smile. She undid the little draw strings and pulled out a silver chain with a blue crystal at the end.
It was amazing. It was a light see through blue, almost like ice. It was perfect crystal shaped too. It connected to a silver chain, which was just long enough to go down to her collar bone. She gasped and hugged it. Loki smiled. He knew she would like it. Out of searching all of the shops last night, he had come across one that was open.
He was about to put it on for her, when he was tackled by little Athena, throwing him to the ground. "Oh!" he said, a surprised gasp escaping his lips. "Thanks so much." She said, Looking down into his green eyes.
Loki found himself lost in her big blue eyes. Still keeping eye contact, he took the necklace and put it on her, noticing it did go well with her eyes.
He looked into her eyes, and felt her shift on top of him. She popped up and raced out of the room. He didn't notice that by the time Athena was halfway down the silent hall, His tie was gone. "You little-!" He said laughing chasing after her.
He chased her into one of the living rooms and pinned her to the couch, tickling her until she burst out laughing and dropped his tie. They sat down together and sighed, taking in the sight of the rising sun, and snowy city. "So why do these "Avengers" want me?" She asked, looking at her new necklace.
"Do you remember awhile ago, When the city was destroyed?" He said, thinking back to the big battle. "I think. I was a hobo, So I didn't think much of it." She sat sitting up. "Well," He started. "SHEILD recruited the world's best "super heroes" and assassins to take on alien forces that humans don't understand. "Then why do they want me?"
