Chapter Two
"Jane, seriously, calm down will you? Geez, I don't see what you're so worried about." Darcy said while she watched Jane rush around their house tidying.
"Well if you would clean up a bit, I wouldn't be rushing around like this, would I?" Jane said as she threw some dishes into the dishwasher.
"True, I just don't see why you think Thor cares about what the house looks like. He'll just be happy to see you, and you know it." Darcy sighed as she played on her phone. "When's he gonna get here anyway?"
"How am I supposed to know?" Jane snapped. Darcy raised both eyebrows at her. "Sorry, I'm just a little nervous. I've not seen him in so long." Darcy smiled at her and tapped the seat on the couch next to her. Jane smiled a little and sat next to her. Darcy wrapped her arm around Jane's shoulders and hugged her.
"It'll be fine, he loves you, and you love him. That's all that matters." Darcy reassured her. "Hey, why don't you go out for a meal? That'd be cute. Romantic. What ever you wanna call it." She suggested. Jane looked at her and smiled.
"Yeah, that could be nice. Do you know anywhere good?" She asked.
"Um… How about that new Italian place that opened up last week?" Darcy said.
"Yeah! Okay, I've gotta go make reservations and find something to wear!" Jane said as she stood up quickly. She hugged Darcy and rushed off, shouting 'Thanks Darcy!' as she went.
Darcy smiled. "Thank god I get this place to myself tonight." She said to herself as she slid back on the couch.
~*0o0*~
"Darcy, what time is it?" Jane asked as she wandered around the room, well actually, it was more like moping. She was all dressed up and looking even more beautiful, if it were possible. She was wearing a navy blue dress, it was simple but she still looked amazing.
Darcy looked at her phone.
"8:23." She said with a small smile, Jane notably deflated, her face falling and looking glum. "Don't worry, he'll be here. Why don't you check the computers for any disturbances? You never know." She said, trying to cheer her up. Jane flashed a sad smile and made her way over to the computers to check for any sudden changes in the atmosphere.
Darcy, now seeing the time, stood up from the couch and made her way to her room. Jane turned and looked at her. Darcy smiled.
"Just changing out of my clothes. I'm gonna snuggle on the sofa with a blanket and watch movies with ice cream tonight, and I'm gonna be comfy while doing it." She said as she walked into her room.
Darcy closed the door behind her and allowed her eyes to roam her room. Well, to say it was a mess would be an understatement. It looked as if someone had dropped a bomb on it. Clothes, books, college work, shoes, make up… Everything was on the floor or strewn around in the wrong place. At one time, when Darcy had first moved in with Jane, everything had a place, and everything was tidy. But that was months ago, now, it was a pig sty, though pigs are supposed to be very clean animals… Anyway. Darcy cautiously made her way over to a freshly washed pile of clothes. She dove her hands in and rummaged through until she felt what she wanted. She pulled out her favourite pair of red joggers and her The Strokes concert T-shirt. She smiled and threw them on her unmade bed. She them pulled off her floral long-sleeved top and dark blue jeans and replaced them with her comfy clothes. Then, she walked over to her dressing table and sat down. She wiped her small amount of make up off and put her hair in a loose ponytail.
Before she returned to the living room she grabbed her favourite fluffy blanket and walked through the door and down the hall. When she got back to the front room, she had expected to see Jane still sitting at the computer, looking beautiful and sad, waiting for her boyfriend god to arrive.
So she was surprised when she walked in and was greeted by a bone crushing, spine snapping bear hug. She managed to look up and see Thor and his head of amazing golden hair and sparkling blue eyes grinning down at her. She smiled widely back, but then realized that she couldn't breathe. He was pretty strong.
"Hey Thor.." She managed to squeak out.
"Darcy! It's good to see you again!" Thor boomed in his mighty, regal voice.
"You.. Too… Can't breathe!" She gasped and Thor dropped her gently.
"Sorry." He said with an apologetic smile. Darcy couldn't stay mad at him.
"So, you finally made it back then? Jane was worried you weren't coming you know, she's been waiting for hours!" Darcy scolded him, a serious look on her face. Thor looked to the floor, wringing his hands like a naughty child. Darcy smirked at this. Thor turned and went over to Jane, who was smiling warmly.
"Jane, I am sorry. I hope you can forgive me." He said as he grabbed her hand and kissed her knuckles softly. Jane giggled and blushed as she always did.
"It's okay, honestly, ignore Darcy, she's just kidding." Jane said and she put her hands on his face and kissed him on the nose. Thor smiled and hugged her.
Darcy smiled at the cute couple in front of her. Then, she turned on her heel to go to the couch, but froze when she walked straight into another person.
Darcy frowned and looked up at the other person in confusion. As green orbs locked with her blue ones Darcy gasped. She spun round, eye's wide.
"Jane!" Darcy yelled, bringing Thor and Jane back to reality. Jane looked past Thor, and her eyes widened too. She stared up at Thor.
"Uh, Thor... What is he doing here?" Jane asked sternly. Thor opened his mouth to explain.
"I brou-"Before he could finish, Darcy butted in.
"You brought him here!" She demanded. "Seriously! Why would you do that? Two months ago, he basically destroyed a whole city! Or did you some how forget that?" Darcy ranted, her arms flailing around her animatedly.
"I have been ordered by my father to watch over Loki."
"To be his baby-sitter?" Darcy asked snidely. Thor frowned at her.
"To make sure he doesn't cause anymore damage."
Jane made a soft whimper, a noise to show she was in disbelief. Everyone's eyes turned to Jane, who stood with her hands by her side, looking frustrated but also deflated.
"Oh that's just great. I've made dinner reservations so you and I could spend some time together, but now it turns out you have to look after your brother!" Everyone could tell Jane was angry. It was pretty obvious.
"I need no one to look after me." Loki interjected sharply, a look of disdain upon his pale face. Everyone stared at him now. "You all talk of me as a child, a child that needs looking after. In case you have forgotten, I am a grown man."
Darcy snorted and Loki glared at her.
"Jane, we can still go out, I'm sure Darcy can keep an eye on Loki." Thor said as he held Jane's hands. Hearing this, Darcy spun round.
"What! No freakin' way! I am not spending my time off looking after him!" She shouted, pointing to Loki.
"Darcy, please, just for a few hours! I'll pay you extra, just please do this one thing for me!" Jane pleaded with her. Her eyes turned into puppy eyes and she pouted at Darcy. Darcy rolled her eyes, folded her arms across her chest and looked away.
"Don't even bother trying that on me… No. I'm not gonna fall for that agai- okay. Fine." Darcy gave up fairly easily, as she usually did. She never stayed mad at anyone for long.
Jane squeaked in happiness and ran over to Darcy, hugging her around the neck. She whispered thank you and sorry in her ear before letting go and returning to Thor.
"Okay, well we've gotta go before nine, so I'm gonna get Thor to change and then we'll be gone. See you later, sorry again!" Jane said as she and Thor left the room hand in hand. Darcy smiled until Jane had left. Once gone, she slapped her hand to her forehead and sighed loudly. She turned and walked straight past Loki and flopped onto the couch. Loki stood and looked at her, his brows knitted together. Darcy turned the TV on and started to flick through the channels quickly, looking for something to watch.
Loki stared at the TV, having no idea what it was. Darcy saw him from the corner of her eye.
"What's the matter with you? Haven't you ever see a- Oh yeah, guess not. Don't worry, it's just a TV." Darcy reassured him. Loki's eyes remained fixed on the screen, trying to figure it out.
"What does it do?" He asked quietly.
"You can was TV programmes on it." Darcy said plainly. Loki looked at her, and she could see he was still confused, possibly more now. She sighed and ran a hand threw her hair, trying to think of how to explain a TV to a Norse god.
"Okay well let me explain it like this; do you have plays where you come from?" She asked, turning in her seat to look at him.
"Of course." Loki said.
"Right, well a TV is a device that lets you watch plays in your own home. And you can watch anything you want." She explained, hoping he would understand. Loki nodded slowly. "Though at the minute, there is nothing to watch." She added.
Loki continued to stand behind the sofa, his eyes locked on the TV. Darcy once again rolled her eyes. "You don't have to stand up, you know. Sit down for god sake, you're making me nervous." She said sharply. Loki frowned at her, but sat down anyway.
After a few more flicks through some channels, Darcy finally decided on something to watch. Family guy.
AN: I know this is a bit shitty, but I needed to upload something, this chapter is a filler if anything else. Also, I can only upload once a week, if that. So yeah, rubbish chapter I know, but please wait because more will come soon! Reviews would be nice ^.^
