Luckily a kind old farmer had offered them a ride back to the house, which ended up only being an hours drive, it turned out ''the middle of nowhere'' wasn't exactly the right way to put it.

As soon as they arrived Darcy ran out of the car and into the unlocked house, finding Jane sitting with Thor in the kitchen chatting quietly. She'd never been so happy to see Jane and gave her a hug around the back like a clingy little sister.

''Darcy! I can't believe that bastard did that to you, he just left me here. Are you alright you're bleeding?'' Jane's voice said as Darcy sat down in the chair opposite her hearing Loki slip into the house shutting the door behind himself, he frowned looking at the blood that was trickling down her right arm and out of her sleeve he hadn't noticed it before, although to be fair Darcy would not stop talking to the ''kindly'' old man who he strongly disliked as he would stare at Darcy's breasts as she spoke almost driving the vehicle off of the rode. Sitting in the backseat by himself wasn't exactly fun.

''Did you get cut by something, human?'' He asked walking towards her and pushing up her sleeve to reveal a deep slit on her forearm.

''Maybe it was just travelling here or something, or a twig on the ground snapped when we landed on it, I'll just go put a bandage on it.'' Darcy said frowning as well, watching as Loki's knowing eyes watched her carefully, he knew she was lying. He noticed when she spoke she averred her eyes and babbled on suspiciously and watched her retreating figure go up the stairs.

Turning back to Thor and Jane he felt a string of jealousy (and disgust) hit him square in the chest as they smiled at each other lovingly and seemed to have a normal conversation. Somehow, he didn't think Darcy would ever be like that, he briefly wondered what it would be like if she worshiped him as much as anyone would a prince but it didn't seem normal to think of her like that, like some sort of fool.

He silently walked up the stairs as he could tell Thor and Jane were far beyond the means of flirtation, running his hand along the stairs cool ledge he looked down slowly, the weight of what had happened to Darcy was settling into his mind, how could anyone be so cruel and horrid to their ''lover''? He had assumed at an early age that he would most likely find no one that really suited his fancy for marriage and in the end he would be betrothed to someone and be forced into a loveless marriage that was merely based on lust and a need to reproduce. Though he knew things were much different on Midgard, they were so controlled by emotions that they would do the unthinkable to get them to stop, he didn't like knowing the fact somebody whom Darcy had probably considered to marry had hurt her in every way possible for his own pride. 'You never treat a lady like that.' Frigga would say to him when he was younger, when she saw men slap around women and he had no intentions of it.

Shuddering that thought away he noticed the bathroom door was open and light flooded outward into the hallway, he peered in to see Darcy fixing those glasses of hers on her face trailed with tears. This would be the normal thing for anyone to do in this current situation, after all Midgardian's rarely faced this kind of stress. He lent against the door frame hearing Jane's giggling coming from their bedroom, hearing Darcy yawn he turned his head to hers and watched her silently. She hadn't seemed to notice him in the reflection of the mirror and if she had she didn't say a thing.

Turning around she didn't look surprised or even startled that he was there, she blinked behind her lenses and offered one of her smirks.

''What are you doing creeping up like that, Mischief? You know I could have tasered you.'' She drawled pouting slightly and sitting on the edge of the bathtub, he slowly sat beside her his eyes remaining on her. He inclined his head, frowning.

''Tasered?''

''Oh yeah. I tasered your brother, twice.'' She added, seeming proud at whatever she was speaking about. Loki still didn't understand and for a moment his blood ran colder than ice, he had briefly thought it was a Midgardian term for something dirty but forgot it when she laughed at his expression.

''It means I bzzed him with a taser, it's like...electricity or a pretty mean shock.'' She explained with a triumphant grin, running a hand through her hair.

Loki chuckled at her explanation.

''I wish I had been there, human.'' He said watching her with amusement, just another reason why he took a liking to her. Darcy's eyes suddenly widened and her lips broke out into a smile, running her tongue along her teeth excitedly she stood up pulling him up with her and running into her room a little down the hall. He followed her shutting the door behind him, watching as she lifted just about everything in her room to find her precious, precious item.

''Ipod!'' She exclaimed with a grin, turning the device on. He watched her for a moment longer, contemplating everything that had happened and gingerly took it out of her hands to her dissapointment. The only light that shone in the small room was the streetlight from outside her window, illuminating her features. She could see the seriousness in his green eyes and she raised an eyebrow as he loomed over her on the bed, wrapping one of her strands around his finger closing his eyes for a moment and then opening them with a tiny grin. At first Darcy thought to say some witty thing to him but she stopped herself as he placed his forehead to her own.

''Do you have any idea...'' He muttered his voice husky, Darcy felt his cool breathe against her nose as he did so. She frowned from beneath him waiting for him to continue but he pulled away rolling so that his back faced the wall, she poked him in his ribs giving him an annoyed look.

''This is my bed.''

''Not anymore.'' He replied quietly, as she lay down he wrapped his arm around her, snaking his hand up her shirt and tapping them in a slow rhythm on her back. He felt her fall asleep against him once again and shut his own eyes listening to her soft breathe's. Strange was all he could think before him himself fell into a peaceful sleep.

Sunlight pierced the room earlier than either of them were expecting. Darcy woke up first though she nearly had a heart attack waking up next to him, slipping out of bed she walked to the bathroom with a new set of clothes shutting the door.

Her new outfit was a little different than usual, sort of. She now wore an accidentally revealing black singlet with a skull in the middle of it, with long skinny jeans, boots and a cropped leather jacket. Wearing black made her feel bad ass, but she wouldn't admit that. Darcy hadn't felt good about herself for a while now so she applied makeup and curled her hair a lot more than usual. She was in a good mood and she decided she wanted to go out, after all being stuck in Asgard was making her feel sick, not that it wasn't beautiful just under the circumstances.

She practically ran to the kitchen to see Jane already there.

''Darcy! Hey. Thor and I are going to the movies, do you wanna come?'' Jane asked, Darcy decided not to comment that she wouldn't even be inviting her if it wasn't for the fact Darcy had almost been killed a few days before.

''Yeah sure, what are we gonna' see?''

''Is Mr mysterious going to go as well? And I don't know, you pick.'' Jane said shrugging, she'd raised her eyebrows when she'd said ''mr mysterious.'' It always amused Darcy how Jane and Thor thought they were funny.

''Cool and I'll ask Loki when he wakes up.'' Darcy said, trying not to laugh at the fact that Loki was basically a real-life alien and was going to go to the cinemas to watch something around humans. He'd probably view it as some type of torture.

''Ask me what?'' Speak of the devil. Loki was at the top of the stairs, his hair set out in fifteen sorts of places and he had that morning after look which caused her to blush furiously. Ducking her head she grabbed the paper before he could take it and went to the section where they showed the movies on, sitting on a chair and propping her legs up by putting them on the table.

''Movie time for the Asgardian. We're gonna go to the cinema, want to join the club?" Darcy asked nonchalantly gluing her eyes to the paper instead of looking at him. She heard him sit beside her and tap his fingers on the glass.

''Yes, I suppose.'' Loki drawled stopping his tapping and suddenly taking away the paper from Darcy smirking slightly at her mouth agape, she crossed her arms across her chest and sighed.

''I'm not watching another of those cheesy romance stories, let's go see Oblivion or something.'' Darcy muttered just as Thor walked out of the room, shirtless. As per usual Darcy couldn't help but stare just like any other straight girl couldn't. Not many men had figures remotely like that at least that Darcy had seen. Loki suddenly cleared his throat, glancing at Darcy hastily.

''I believe that show you like is on right now isn't it?'' He questioned remembering her talk about it considerably a lot. She looked at the time and nodded.

''Good thinking, prince.''

Not really happy with this chapter but I hope it was alright I promise the next to be a bit more ecitign and Loki getting into some awkward situiations, please review :)!
