Hello readers! So i've been thinking for a while and I realized I can't write an entire story covering Jane's whole pregnancy, i'd run out of story ideas and I'd rather write great chapters and only have a few than crappy chapters that i have a lot of. So i've decided to stop the story after the weddings. Now don't get worried that i won't tell you guys about the baby or anything. There will be epilogue chapters, i couldnt just leave you guys hanging like that, but i just wanted to give all of you the heads up.

Six days until the wedding…

Thor nodded to the guards as he unlocked the heavy metal doors of the treasury, pushing them open with a creak. Clint's advice on wedding rings buzzed around his head as he walked through the room, headed toward the vault at the very back of the chamber. He knew he had to find a ring that suited Jane perfectly; she would wear the ring the rest of her life. Thor would give her nothing less than the absolute best. He entered the vault, looking around at the jewels his ancestors acquired over the centuries: crowns, necklaces, rings, piles of priceless jewels, all of these things filled the drawers and sat piled in box on the floor.

'Here it is,' he thought, pulling open one of the drawers. The jewels on the rings glittered as the light reflected off of them, making them shine. Slowly Thor picked up every ring, inspecting each one carefully before setting it back into the drawer. Some of the rings were large, clearly intended for a male to wear, while others were smaller, more feminine. All of them were gorgeous in their own way, but Thor searched for one that screamed Jane, one that would take her breath away as he slipped it onto her finger. 'Perhaps I should have brought Mother for her advice,' Thor thought as he set another ring back into the drawer. A smile crossed his face as he picked up another ring, holding it up to the light. 'This is perfect for Jane; she will love it,' he thought, slipping the ring into his pocket.


Five days until the wedding…

"Jane!" Darcy yelled happily as she stepped out of the elevator, hugging her best friend.

"Darcy, it's so good to see you! I've missed you so much," Jane said, letting go of Darcy. "How have you been?"

"I've been fine, same old same old in New Mexico. Although I did meet this cute guy, Kyle, in town the other day," Darcy replied. "How are you doing? How's my little niece or nephew?"

"He or she is being a holy terror to me; apparently they have something against me eating half of the time," Jane said, shaking her head. "But otherwise I'm great; I'm so happy you're here."

"Ahem, have you forgotten about someone?" Doctor Selvig said, stepping out of the elevator with the bags.

"Doctor Selvig, I could never forget you," Jane said, hugging him. "How are you?"

"I'm wonderful my dear, thank you. Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials," he replied. "Where is Thor?"

"I am right here," Thor said, walking down the stairs from the roof. "Friend Darcy and Eric, I am overjoyed to see you once again." Thor pulled them into a hug quickly, squeezing them tightly. "I trust your journey was a peaceful one, yes?"

"Oh yeah the flight here was fine. I was vibrating off my seat with excitement, but it was great," Darcy replied.

"Darcy's very excited about the wedding; it's all she's talked about since Jane called her," Doctor Selvig said as they walked into the living room. "You'd think she was getting married."

"A wedding is a most joyous occasion to celebrate. Coupled with Jane's pregnancy, there is much to be happy about," Thor said. "Scientist, come meet Friend Darcy and Selvig."

Bruce smiled as he looked up from his book, walking over to the group. "Hello, I'm Bruce Banner."

"It is wonderful to meet you, Bruce; I've read quite a few of your papers," Doctor Solveig said, shaking his hand. "I'm Eric Selvig and this is Darcy Lewis."

"It's nice to meet you both," Bruce said, shaking Darcy's hand. "Jane's told me a lot about the work you're doing in New Mexico; I'd love to discuss it with you. We can have some coffee." Eric nodded, following Bruce into the kitchen.

"I swear nerds always manage to find each other," Darcy laughed. "Where's everyone else?"

"Clint and Natasha got sent on a quick mission this morning," Jane said. "Steve is probably walking around the city somewhere."

"And Lady Pepper had many meetings Stark did not want to attend. Stark is in his laboratory," Thor added. "Everyone shall be gathered for dinner."

"I guess I'll meet them all then," Darcy replied. "How's wedding planning going?"

"It's actually going great; I'll show you what we've decided already. I got my dress," Jane said, leading Darcy to her room.

Thor watched them walk down the hallway before heading to the elevator.


"Hey raincloud, what brings you to my lab on such a fine day?" Tony asked, looking up from his latest invention as Thor walked in.

"I have come to seek a favor Friend Stark," Thor replied, looking around the lab, wondering what Tony was building now.

"You're probably gonna need a best man," Clint said, continuing the conversation about the wedding after Bruce, Steve and Tony had left.

"What is that?" Thor asked.

"A best man is the guy who stands next to the groom on his wedding day and keeps the rings safe. Usually the guy is either the groom's brother or his best friend, someone who's been by their side, someone they trust, someone they can depend on. It's the best man's job to make sure the groom gets to the altar on time, that he doesn't pass out when he sees the bride walk down the aisle, and he says I do when it's the right time," Clint explained.

"Thank you very much Archer; you have been most helpful."

"Really?" Tony asked.

"Yes my friend. I have come to ask you to be my best man," Thor said seriously. "I have been informed by the Archer that it is a position of the highest honor and I can think of no one better suited than you."

"You seriously want me to be your best man?" Tony asked, shocked.

"Yes. You have been a true friend to me Friend Stark despite our rough beginning; I am truly indebted to you for all that you have done for me and Jane. I would be honored if you were to be my best man."

"Sure big guy, why not," Tony said, clapping a hand on Thor's shoulder. "I'll try not to show you up while you stand at the altar; I look incredibly handsome in a suit."


I love the thought of Tony being the best man ^_^ Reviews please
