RECAP: Loki and Darcy talked about Maidenheads, and marriage. I sealed the chapter with a kiss 3
*** Loki's P.O.V***
Darcy was in the kitchen making us breakfast. She was a bit more jumpy than usual, most likely afraid from last night's encounters. I was sitting on one of the chairs surrounding the island watching her. Beautiful would be one of many words to describe her. Intelligent would be another, cunning, brilliant, caring, sweet, silly. How didn't I fall for her from the moment I laid my eyes on her?
It seemed to have just come naturally as it should. My family always said that Thor would get married before me. That used to make me cry when I was younger because it made me feel so unlikeable. My mother would come in and wrap her arms around me in a soothing fashion. She'd calm me down and tell me that one day I would find someone, she told me that she loved me and that I'd always be her Loki. Her Loki. Not anymore.
I was only Darcy's Loki; my mother had abandoned me too. In fact, it hurt me to think this, but she wasn't even my mother. My fists balled up and I glared forward. Luckily, Darcy was turned the other way so that she couldn't see me right now.
What we needed right now was a plan. How could we escape these SHIELD people? They obviously scared Darcy, what if they were trying to hurt us? If they found out that I was the reason that their city nearly got destroyed I was sure that they wouldn't be too happy. But, I was the best liar in the nine realms, I was sure that I could get away from it… somehow…
"Loki?" Darcy asked quietly.
"Yes darling?"
"I'm done," she said putting a plate in front of me.
"Thank you," I said quietly.
I looked at the plate. There were two slabs of meat, two round pieces of meat, two eggs, yellow uncooked, and some shredded potatoes. I took a bite out of one of the slabs of meat. It was delicious! As we ate, I pondered possible escape plans.
Staying to answer the stupid questions was not an option. If they found out the truth, Darcy would be imprisoned. I was sure of it, and it would be all my fault. We'd have to escape, and I'd do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Where could we go? I didn't know much about this realm, it was weird.
If only we could go home to Asgard, just me and Darcy. If only I hadn't found out what I truly was, if only I hadn't tricked Thor into going to Jotunheim. Perhaps then Darcy and I could have gone back to Asgard. We could have lived there, she could have become a goddess.
At this point, two trails were starting in my brain. Getting home, and how to get home were running through my day. Should Darcy and I successfully arrive at Asgard, how could I ensure our safety? How could I even get us home? I had energy, but I'd need to find the same spot that I fell, I could open a path, I semi-knew the spells.
"I think I'd like to watch a movie," I said quietly.
"Okay, I was going to take a quick shower first… then I'll put one on for us, okay?" Darcy said.
"Sure," I said.
She jumped off her chair and dashed to her room. She had a bundle of clothing and ran to her bathroom, then locked the door. I heard water turn on. As jittery as a child, that girl was. I could feel a cocky grin spread on my face as I hoped that I was the reason of her jitteriness.
I sat down on the couch and found the remote control. I wasn't even planning on watching the movie. I'd need the noise of the television to cover up our conversation; I doubted that the SHIELD humans left us unattended. They most likely put a listening device so that they could hear us plan an escape. A man going into an old, crowded car appeared on the screen. It seemed that he was traveling through time or something…
"Is that Midnight in Paris?" Darcy asked.
I turned around to see her with wet hair, a purple skirt, and jean shorts. She came over to me and sat down next to me, she took my hand and looked at the screen, her eyes wide. When a tall, blonde, character came on with his wife, and befriended the sorry author, Darcy began to blush.
"Darcy?" I asked cautiously.
"Shh!" She hushed, staring intently at the screen.
"Why are you blushing?" I asked feeling myself get angrier.
"Oh, just um…" She looked down.
"Do you find that man attractive?" I asked.
"Tom Hiddleston as Scott Fitzgerald?" Darcy gasped.
I raised my eyebrow. I didn't even know his name. She looked at me with apologetic eyes, and I let go of her hand and turned away.
"No, Loki! It's just, look. Here on Migard lots of people admire the appearances of actors! Please don't be mad," she said sounding very worried.
"Well, that small, blonde lady he was with looked beautiful too," I hissed.
"Are you jealous?" Darcy laughed.
I glared forward at the screen. She pulled my left shoulder so that I was facing her, then she kissed me. She brought her lips to my ear.
"Don't be jealous. I only love you," she whispered.
Perfect cover up, I realized.
"Darcy, does Lady Jane have technology that can help me find the place that I landed here?" I whispered quietly in her ear, then brought my lips to her cheek and kissed it.
"Yes," she whispered.
"Take me to visit her, I have a plan," I whispered.
"Fine," She said.
She pulled away slowly, looking annoyed, so I brought my lips to hers. I kissed her for a whole minute, and then I pulled away.
"Shall we go for a stroll around the city?" I asked with a wink.
"Okay," She murmured.
Darcy and I walked to Lady Jane's estate that was not too far away. I was well aware of our followers-SHIELD agents- but Darcy seemed oblivious to them.
"This is it," she said as we neared it.
I looked to an apartment, and tried to look up without being noticed.
"What window?" I asked.
"Third to the right," she said as she almost stopped.
"Keep walking," I said pulling her.
She shot me a look of confusion, but followed my orders.
"Describe her home for me," I said.
Darcy began describing and I paid attention to all of her small details. As we rounded the corners, I put all the information together in my brain. I imagined her room, the window, the location.
"Hold me tight," I said as I pulled her close.
I imagined us at Lady Jane's apartment. Two girls screamed, Darcy, another woman, and an old man's yelp welcomed us. I opened my eyes, and we were there in Lady Jane's apartment.
Lady Jane looked completely terrified, and Erik looked completely protective, but I ignored them. I turned to Darcy, and she looked shaky. I put my hands on her shoulders and murmured that it would be fine.
"What the hell are you guys doing here?" Erik shouted.
"Lady Jane, how would you like to see Thor again?" I asked through gritted teeth.
