Astrid lays in bed in the afternoon, after an eventful morning. And all she could think about was her mother and everything that had happened in a week and a few days.
Her mother possibly being alive
The fact that Loki is her father
That she's a goddess
She's a frost giant
She's also human
Her actual name is Astrid
Her grandfather is Odin
Her uncle is Thor
And everything was just so overwhelming. And she didn't like that. So through the whole day, she had been grumpy/mad.
Which is why she had thrown Tony out the window
_____________________________________Earlier...____________________________________
Everyone was in the living room, and it was a hot day. Even the air conditioner couldn't keep up with the heat. It had broken down, and not even Mr. Stark, Bruce, and Vision could fix it. Not in that heat.
Everyone was just sitting on a couch, fanning themselves with whatever they could, and Aria and Loki were in their Frost Giant form, to cool the room down a bit.
"Is there a possibility that you guys can freeze the room a little bit? Not too much though"
"Can we do that?" Astrid asked Loki
"I'm not sure. I know that Frost Giants can do it with the Casket of Ancient Winters, but I am not sure we can do it without it."
"Can we try?"
"I suppose. But how would we do it?"
"I have an idea."
Astrid returned to her Lokidottir form and closed her eyes.
She focused on collecting the cold from Loki into her hands. And it worked.
Astrid then released the cold creating a slight breeze in the room, making the room cooler.
"Wow. That's so cool!" Peter said.
"Thank you" Wanda said
But Astrid wasn't paying attention. She kept thinking about everything that had happened in the past few days.
"ARIA! Hello! We're talking to you. What is possibly so important that you don't even listen to us?"
"You have no idea don't you" Astrid whispered.
"What?"
Astrid stood up. "You have NO IDEA WHAT I'M GOING THROUGH"
Tony stepped back. Everyone's eyes went wide as they all looked at Astrid.
"You have no idea. In a few days I found out that I am LOKITDOTTIR, I am a FROST GIANT, I'm a GODDESS, Thor is my UNCLE, and-"
As Astrid talked, she walked towards Tony, and cornered him to the point where he was about to fall out the open window.
"I recently found out that MY MOTHER MIGHT BE ALIVE! IS THAT ENOUGH THAT I FOUND THAT OUT IN A FEW DAYS AND IT'S OVERWHELMING?! That I can't think of anything BUT THAT?!"
As Astrid talked, her eyes glowed green, and green mist surrounded her hands. And her wings were glowing green. And everything in the room was floating a few inches off the ground. And Astrid was starting to float, and she wasn't even flapping her wings.
And Tony was the only other person floating in the room. And Tony and Aria started floating out the window.
"How would you feel if you were in my position? And now, I have to decide whether to accept or to deny. Whether to go with it, or forget everything that happened. And I DIDN'T EVEN ASK FOR THIS. So that is important to me. I'm sorry if that's not important for you."
Suddenly, Tony fell, and Aria opened her wings and flew away.
Everything in the room cam crashing down, including Tony who was currently falling to his death. (That's supposed to be a little humor there)
Everyone ran towards the window. And everyone was just frozen, all but Loki, who immediately focused his energy on lifting Tony, and Tony got surrounded in green mist, and he started rising.
Loki backed up, and landed Tony gently on the ground.
"Are you alright?"
Tony was breathing hard. "Yeah. I'm kind of used to being thrown out windows. I did not mean to offend her. Should we go after her?"
"I think we should give her some time. If she doesn't come back, I'll go look for her." Peter says.
"I agree." Loki says.
Everyone goes to their bedrooms, and as they walk, Loki stops Peter.
"Peter. May I talk to you?"
"Uh, sure"
"I approve of the relationship you and Astrid have"
"You were there too?!"
"Yes. And you are a wonderful young man. All I ask is that you take care of Astrid. Do not hurt her or break her heart or I will break yours. Am I clear?"
"Yes sir"
"Good man."
Loki pats Peter on the shoulder.
"Hey Mr. Stark, I'm going to go look for Astrid. It's been an hour."
"Ok. Call if anything happens ok?"
"I will"
Peter suits up, and jumps out an open window and starts swinging. He knew exactly where to find Aria. He swung towards the alley near Delmar's Deli-Grocery He landed in the alley and took his suit off and changed into regular clothes.
He went inside Delmar's Deli-Grocery and went he went inside, he saw Aria sitting at a table staring into a cup of hot chocolate.
"Hola! Mr. Parker!"
"Hi Mr. Delmar"
"Hey, Aria looks a little upset. Esta bien?"
"Yes. She just-recently found her family and it's a little overwhelming. Oh, and her given name is Astrid, and she likes it when people call her that."
"Probesita. Well, I shall do as she wishes. I shall call her Astrid. Now, go, talk to her"
Peter goes to the table where Astrid was sitting.
"Well, I guess we know that you don't have heat vision, or else that hot chocolate would have evaporated by now, and that mug would not longer be a mug"
Astrid looks up. "I guess so" She laughs. But, then she gets a serious look on her face. "Is he ok?"
"Yeah. He's fine. He's kind of used to it."
"Who got him?"
"Loki"
Astrid crossed her arms on the table and layed her head on them. "I messed up"
"No you didn't"
Peter got up and grabbed a chair and put it next to Aria and sat down.
"You didn't mess up. You've been overwhelmed all day, and all week. We all get why this morning happened. We've all been there. For Mr. Stark, it was when he found out his arc reactor was killing him. And for Wanda it was when Pietro died. For Bruce it was when he couldn't control the Hulk. For Sam, well, I don't know. For Thor it was when he thought Loki was dead. For me, it was when I found out my parents died, and when Aunt May died. So, we've all been there"
Astrid hugged him. "Thank you"
Peter gently lifted her face, and kissed her softly.
"Are you ok to go back to the compound, or do you want to stay here for a little more?"
"Let's go back. But let's take some sandwiches and some hot chocolate for the whole team."
"Ok."
"Hey Mr. Delmar, can you make 11 sandwiches, number fives, one extra pickle? And can you smoosh it down real flat? (Spider Man Homecoming?)
"Of course Mr. Parker. I'll put 4 more in there. My treat."
"Oh, um, thanks"
Peter took out his wallet from his backpack and took out a one hundred dollar bill.
________________________________A few minutes later...______________________________
"It's ready Mr. Parker!"
Peter gets up and puts put the dollar bill on the counter and picks up the bag.
"Woah, this is way too much"
"Keep it"
Peter winks, and Mr. Delmar smiles.
"You know, it's nice to see you too together."
"What do you mean?"
"I saw you too kiss. I told you that you two would be perfect together."
"I guess you were right."
Astrid and Peter leave, and as they leave, Peter hears Mr. Delmar speak to his companion.
"Que bueno verlos juntos. Que te dije? Que se van a juntar, y son perfectos."
"Si, lo dijiste"
"Dame los viente dolares."
"Hay, por Dios"
Translation:
"It's so nice to see them together. What did I tell you? That they would get together, and they are perfect"
"Yeah, you said it"
"Give me twenty dollars"
"Oh, good Lord"
BTW, for those of you who are wondering, I am bilingual in Spanish and English
Peter smiled as he left he building.
________________________________________________________________________________
"WE HAVE FOOD!"
Everyone crowded around the table as everyone ate.
Astrid stood up from the table and cleared her throat.
"I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I, kind of, well, not kind of, but, well, I lost it. This morning. And I'm sorry Tony."
"It's ok. And I'm sorry for offending you."
"It's ok"
"Well, let's eat!" Wanda says
Everyone gets back to eating, and when everyone is done, they go to their rooms, where we reach the beginning of this story.
Aria lays in bed, and thinks about the events that happened during the night, and in the end, she decided to accept everything she learned, and to find her mother. But she could worry about that in the morning. She closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
