As she ran down, she saw Loki's scepter on the ground. She looked up again and there was Nat. Tasha nodded at her, telling her to go to Loki, she was going to manage.

Nina stepped inside, and looked around the room, almost like searching for danger. Her eyes fell upon the hole on the ground, where Loki was still lying in. She quickly ran to him.

"Loki?" She whispered, making Loki's eyes dart right open. He gasped and looked around scared. "Are you okay?" Nina asked him, extending her hand in aid. Loki started at her hand for a second, wondering if he should accept the help form this girl. But then he looked her in the eyes and immediately knew he had to take it.

Nina helped Loki up, pulling him close to her body. As soon as Nina placed her hands on his shoulders, Loki frowned. Why was she doing this? Why was this girl suddenly interested in him? What was he to her? Why was he more interesting, of more special than anyone else? He was the villain, wasn't he? He was the guy taking over the planet she held so dear. Oh. He suddenly realised. She found out how to disable the tesseract. She knew the only way to do it was his scepter.

If Loki knew that she was only doing this to keep him away from his scepter, why did he lean in and kiss her first, this time. Why did he let his hands travel to her waist as her own went to the back of his head, tangling her fingers gently into his hair?

He simply did not care anymore. He knew it was over, he knew they were probably already in possession of his staff. In only a few hours, he was going to be sent back to Asgard, where Odin was probably going to condemn him, and jail him for life. He needed these last moments with the literal love of his life. He needed her to know that he would never forget her, and he needed to be sure she wouldn't forget him either.

Loki pulled away for a second, looking at Nina's pleading eyes. He wasn't sure if she was still just acting of if this attraction she felt for him was real. If it wasn't, he was very impressed with her acting skills, because she was fooling him.

"If you really are who you say you are, then I know you know every single detail about my species," he whispered, only a few centimeters way for her face. Nina nodded shortly. She knew exactly what he was on about. She knew everything about Frost Giants, and how they could only fall in love with one person. She immediately felt guilty for being Loki's person. She could never let go of everything in her life to go live with him in Asgard, and he would never go so low to live in Earth with her. Also, he was probably going to be imprisoned for life, and she definetly was not going to spent the rest of her own living a man in prison.

"You do know that when you go to prison, I cannot keep by your side," she told him, burying her face in the crook of his neck and sending a shiver through Loki's whole body. "I can't give everything up over here to go and stand with you my whole life while you are locked away."

"I know," he whispered, tilting his head to the side, allowing her more access to his neck. Nina let out a hot breath next to his ear, making him unwillingly let out a soft whimper. He felt her smile into his neck, but was suddenly pushed away when they heard a big explosion.

"They did it," Nina said, running outside. Loki was left unmoving, standing next to the bar. He had never felt this big of a rush. He had never kissed a girl the way Nina kissed him. He had never felt love. Not this way. Loki suddenly had an idea, so he walked to Nina, taking her hand to make her turn at him.

"Come with me to Asgard," he told her. Did he not just hear what I said ? Nina thought. She was about to tell him off when he interrupted her. "I know, you said you weren't gonna give up your life on earth for me. I'm not asking for your life, only for a week. Spend the next week with me, t week of my trial. Once it is over you can come back to your normal little life, but please, allow me one last week," he pleaded. Loki never thought he would be pleading anything to anyone ever, but here he was, begging a girl to stay with him for one more week.

Nina's eyes soon softened as she looked up to look at his. How could she say no? How could she tell him she was not about to spend his last week as a free man with him? Yes, Loki had done many things he shouldn't have. Yes, she disagreed with his motives and his actions. Yet, for some reason, she felt her heart race everytime he was around.
