VALERIA'S POV
##############

When I woke up it was most likely anywhere from ten to noon.

I got up and put on a plain charcoal gray t shirt and my jacket and my boots.

I walked out into Tony's bar. I walked behind it and grabbed the whisky and a glass. I poured one and quickly downed it.

"Val, it's eleven in the morning, seriously?" Tony asked. I glanced at him before pouring myself another glass. "Yes really."

Tony sighed as he sat down next to me.

"You really should at least drink water." Tony said. I groaned already getting annoyed. "Fine. Will you.get me some water?" I almost demanded.

"No, but I will do this." Tony said as he grabbed the bottel out of my hand and set back with all of the other liquor.

I downed the glass I had poured before he stole the bottel. "What's wrong." He asked.

"Nothing's wrong." I lied. Tony rolled his eyes. "What's wrong." He pressed.

"You wouldn't understand." I said standing up. "Try me." He pressed again.

I heard a door open and instantly knew who it was.

I got up quickly and tried to walk past him, but Loki was too fast. He grabbed my upper arm before I could walk past him.

"Valeria I ju-" he started, but I cut him off by wrenching my arm free. "Do not touch me." I growled through gritted teeth.

Loki's eyes flashed with hurt, it took everything I had to force myself to walk away. I went to my gym.

I didn't my usual thing and hung up a punching bag. And because litaerlly everything was fire proof in this room, I set up some cardborad boxes in random areas of the room.

I started beating the shit out of the bag. I took everything out on the stupid sack, as I often did.

I flung my hands tward one of the boxes and a fire ball blasted it to the side. I went back to the bag. Punching it kicking it, assulting the damn thing in anyway I possibly could.

I charred another box.

I reapeated this process until someone opened the door. I still had flames dancing in my hands when I jerked to look at the door. It was Loki.

I let the flames die. "I thought I made it clear I didn't want to be around you.

I said as I walked over to my cloths and pulled my shirt back over my head and let my hair fall down my back.

"I know, Valeria, I just wanted to speak with you." Loki said as I started sweeping the ashes of the boxes into a corner.

"How about this. You have till I'm done switching shoes." I said as I sat down on the bench.

"I just wanted to say I apologize for kissing you after you said not to last night.." I had gotten the sneakers off by the time he finished speaking.

"And... I um.. I wish you would not avoid me, if you what we could just be firends." Loki almost pleaded. I had my boots on.

"Times up." I had to force my voice to come out smooth and indifferent.

"Why will you not give me a chance?" I heard how hurt he really was in his voice. I didn't know how long I could take it. I just walked out of the gym.

I debated leaving the tower all together, but lately I seen to be coming home.super late when I do. So I instead grabbed my laptop off if the coffee table and locked myself in my room.

I opened the laptop and got on Netflix. I binge watched a few tv shows I was into because why not.

I eventually got bored of them and started watching movies I randomly selected.

I heard a knock on my door, I paused my movie.

"Who is it?" I asked loud enough for the person to hear on the other side of the door.

"Valeria... It is me.." I heard Loki say.

I don't know what it was. It could of been the way he spoke, but something inside me made me open that door.
