New Beginnings (4)
Thor nodded, yes he was also starting to just get restless in here with things to be done. He didn't immediately avert his gaze as she got out, no he watched as the water gave way to her body.....one he had never forgotten. He looked away when she moved....she probably didn't want the privacy given they both just shared a bath, but he was going to give it reguardless. She grabbed his beard....he wasn't completely surprised he wasn't making this easy for her. She kissed his lips and he just smiled and nodded. "Ok I wont be long," he said to her as she got out. Ok he followed her that time as she went back in. "I have some of my clothes in my room if those would suit you more comfortable?" He said as he too got out. He had a clean spare set here so dried and changed quickly. He grabbed his axe and a small wagon he had made for wood. "Shouldnt be too long," he yelled out as he started off. The better trees were deeper in away from the houses view.....would also give him a chance to relief himself....poor substitute but this embarrassing boner needed to die down. He found the tree he needed, would only take few minutes to chop properly. Hidden from the path he pulled himself free wasting little time and making very little noise as he worked himself over.
Elisabeth finished drying herself off, wondering for a moment if she wished to torture him more just by forfeiting clothes all together. She decided against it and put his shirt on, along with a pair of her shorts that were just a little too tight on her ass. Oh well, it was fine. "I'll be waiting for you." She called back to him, stretching out her fingers with a loud crack as she started to figure out what to do with dinner. She was cooking for someone else now, this needed all her concentration as she didn't want to fuck it up.
It took maybe few extra minutes longer as Thor savored the feeling working himself almost to the end,which after everything did not take long, but he tried teasing himself enough to be satisfied. He wasn't proud to be doing this even after as he shuffled himself back into his pants and made sure he didn't look a mess before chopping wood. He was getting there.....soon he knew it wouldn't be too much longer he would be settled mostly in the thought she wouldn't leave. Wood chopped he loaded it onto the sledge and started his way back. "I'm back had to go a bit deeper so I didn't waste any wood," he said as it wasn't like him to waste these days.
Elisabeth had been working on throwing together what looked like it could be a casserole or something; meat and veggies in a sauce with something like a stuffing she found in a box on top of it, now covered and on the fire cooking. It was hot though, so she knotted his shirt at the bottom so it wrapped around her waist more, showing off those shorts. She looked up as he came in and smiled. "Got worried you got lost." She teased him, getting up and grabbing some wood from him to toss on the fire. She did notice him staring as she grinned back at him. "Like the view?"
Thor stopped to unload the wood not expecting her to come right out .. . Let alone....like that. She grabbed the wood and headed to the fire. What......she was going to kill him now not even subtlety. He half missed her tease as he just gave her a 'for real' look. "Yes you know that, your teasing now is not subtle love," he said as he started to move the firewood inside since they would probably need it for the rest of the night. "Smells good whatever you're making," he said dusting his hand off and moving the sledge against the porch.
Elisabeth had looked over her shoulder, grinning at the look he gave her. "Teasing? Why, I do not know what you mean. I'm just dressed comfortably. Teasing would be me forfeiting clothes all together... which the thought certainly had crossed my mind." She hummed as she set up the wood more under the food. "I'm afraid it will take a bit to cook like this, but it'll turn out okay... or so I hope."
Yea right. Thor managed to keep it together for now tidying the kitchen since she did cook. Right alcohol he needed some booze now. Into the pantry he managed to pull out the last of his asguardian liquor large wine bottle full. After this he would need to find new supply or really get Scott to build him something to speed his batches up. "Well no like we have plans any time soon," Thor said coming out with the liquor and beer. He grabbed two mugs getting the beer for them, then two more wine like glasses as he poured the liquor as well. He took a swing cringing a bit. "Almost like back home hasn't been as well aged as the other stuff I had," he said now remembering why it was in the back of the pantry now.
Elisabeth wasn't helping his situation, but now that he mentioned teasing she took advantage of it, having to be on her knees anyway to get the fire set. He had a full view of her ass in those shorts as she took her time, only getting back up to her feet when he came over with the beer and alcohol. She came over, taking a sip of the Asgardian liquid and she crinkled her nose. "Yes, it's a stronger taste, not as smooth as usual." She said and finished that small glass before she washed it down with the beer. "It'll do the trick however since you have a full bottle of it."
Thor avoided looking at her....woman was pushing it and he wasn't quite drunk enough yet. "That it will but we should probably wait for food as well before getting too deep into this," he said as he resealed it setting it on the table. It was enough for him to feel it slightly not quite nice high yet. "Hows your arm, I should get the cream for you," he said remembering as he stood and dissapeared into his room and reappeared handing her the small vial. "Should help numb it again," he added.
"Dunno, alcohol may make it taste better." Elisabeth joked. She watched him leave for the moment, letting out a soft sigh. She was trying, he still seemed like he wasn't ready, but she couldn't help but feel it was something about her perhaps? He told her that wasn't the case, but was he just being nice? He was the type of person who would do that, always had that big and kind heart though he had been cocky and prideful to hide it. She hid her thoughts as he came back with the cream, and for a moment she wasn't even sure if she wanted his help this time. It was just about too much to resist his hands on her again. "Thank you, I think I can take care of it."
"I'm sure you're cooking will be fine," Thor grinned at her and sat in an armchair while the food cooked. He had grabbed a tablet from the ship to help calculate a path...one both allowed them to stop for breaks off ship occasionally. Was going to be a long trip didn't mean they had to warp speed it the whole way. "Hey is there a place you want to visit before midguard.....just seeing where all we can stop," he asked as why not would be fun to adventure with her again. He was trying, he was trying hard to be his old self but his new self was still too cautious.
While he moved more towards the fire, Elisabeth faced away from him as she took his shirt off to apply the lotion. It was a reach, and at least he couldn't see the cringe on her face as it had tightened up from the bath, now dry and obnoxious feeling. "I don't have anywhere specific in mind.. haven't exactly sat and enjoyed the places I have been. Just do my job and jump to the next request." She answered, applying some of the lotion to the very tips of her fingers. It was more from the stretching, but she couldn't help the slight hiss through her teeth.
Thor saw his shirt leave her body but focused on the tablet. Later...the his he didn't like and his blood boiled. Oh he wanted to track those guys but they were leaving....and they wouldnt mess with her ever again anyways now. "Right then I'm going to pick some fun places then," Thor said as why not. He scrolled through some systems settling on two for sure. One was not much to see during the day but at night dazzling light shows. Second had good swimming and secluded beaches....why not. "Well I've picked two, you see any more along this route we can stop," Thor said as he handed her the tablet to let her look.
It was a process, but she had the lotion rubbed in good enough as she put the shirt back on, done teasing him for now as it really wasn't getting anywhere, and she didn't want to push him. Elisabeth wiped her hands off on a towel before she took a tablet, the place with the lights she did not recognize, but the one with the beaches she sure did, as did a scar on her ankle. She gave a hum as she looked at the route, choosing one more planet. "This one. I was only there for a day. They were being invaded by Kree, decided to leave quickly as I wasn't overly fond of having the Kree after me. I've heard the food there is delightful if you know what to grab."
She took the tablet shirt back on....he wasn't trying to hint strongly at he wasn't interested but.....he got it she wanted him.....he just wasn't quite brave enough yet. He looked at the place she mentioned. "I was going to suggest that one but didn't want to take too many," he smiked as he had stopped their few months ago. "They have rebuilt pretty interesting place to be lots of cultures combined," he said as that was done. He looked at the route would be a fair amount of time on board together with few days exploring. "Journey should be fun....who knows what we will find on the way," he smiled actually excited about something for the first time in a long while. He admitted he did forget how it felt to be this optimistic again. "Beer yours and mine both seem empty now," he smiked standing as he grabbed their cups and refilling.
It was nice to see him excited again about something as Elisabeth gave him a smile. "We have plenty of time to get to Midgard. A few stops won't hurt. There's no rush." She said as she leaned back in the chair a bit more as he went and got more beer. Her heart hurt, perhaps alcohol could help with that as she was trying to sort things out. He didn't want her to touch, but he still wanted to do things with her, or so it seemed. She gave him a soft "thank you" as he poured her more, and she took another chug from it. For this Midgard stuff halfway through the second mug she was starting to feel a bit better, just trying to calm her insecurities.
Thor happily handed her a mug as he dragged the keg to the end of the table so they had better access. Was going slightest bit flat might as well finish it off. "Few stops will be fun, make sure by this one your arm feels a bit better," he said mentioning the beach one. "The suns on that one are hot and can burn even my skin a bit," he said as he didn't want to know how an open or fresh wound would cope. He sat back setting the tablet between them as he relaxed. "Movies we will have to do that.....like plays acted out but you dont have to go anywhere and can stay home," Thor tried to explain as he wasn't sure if they had those here.
"Hmm the beach, it's been quite a long time since I last enjoyed one. In fact I think last time I went swimming was with you in the river near the palace." Elisabeth recalled, a soft smile on her face as she remembered a better time between them. They hadn't been together for long then, but she was much younger then and still just as smitten with him. Ironic that the person who had always made her feel the most confident was the one now making her second guess herself. He mentioned movies, and as he explained them she looked up thoughtfully. "I do not recall seeing anything like that on my adventures, but I wouldn't mind to try it. Sounds like an interesting concept."
Thor smiled he did remember those times. "Ah was always just the right temperature on those hot days," he laughed as after a fight he was always in need of cleaning. "Well if we stay in midguard we can find another river to get lost in huh?" He smiled as well this place he had here was nice but it did lack other natural landmarks. Water even had to be brought onto his property and refilled from time to time. Beer I hand he gulped half of it one go easy enough as smooth as it was. "How much longer do you think?" Thor asked as he was starting g to get hungry now that the beer was kicking in a bit.
Elisabeth drank more of her beer down before she got up and stretched, arms over her head and up on her toes to stretch all of those muscles. "Mmm hold on let me check it." She said as she walked over to the fireplace. Mitts on she lifted the covering, fork in she got a taste of it. Watching it like a hawk and working on it had done her justice. Finally. She was careful taking the food off of the fire, getting it up onto the counter. "It needs to cool for a few minutes, but then it should be good." She responded.
Thor hadn't wanted to rush her but alcohol and empty stomach probably wasn't good for either.....some food first. She hauled it up to the counter as he got up refilling both their beers before he was beside her. "Smells good whatever it is sure it tastes even better," Thor smiled as he nudged her away so he could serve. She cooked after all as he gathered the plates and forks. He played the food smaller portion cool faster as he set the food on the table for both if them. "Think I have some bread here somewhere," Thor recalled as he had bought some when they had gone into town day ago. "Ah here it is I'll let it heat by the fire while that cools," he smiled.
Elisabeth gave a small huff when he nudged her out of the way, taking over and plating. While he did that, she went back to her beer to keep her mouth busy, as she was also trying not to watch him like a hawk after its next meal. Her moves hadn't worked, and she did want him to come to her in his own time. "I'm only glad it turned out right, I'm not good at cooking, never have been." She chuckled, looking at the amber beer swirling in her mug.
Thor smiled. "I had faith in you besides plenty of time if you wanted to learn still," he added. "Let's be honest I didn't know any if this and i learned," he teased as bread only took a few minutes before it was warm enough. "No butter but can dip in the meal," he smiled as he put the bread between the two plates. He sat across from her and smiled. "Well thank you for the meal," he smiled as he wasn't shy digging in.
Elisabeth couldn't stop a smile as he complimented her attempt at cooking. "Well then you'll just have to teach me what you know." She smiled, taking a bite of the food. "Still, not bad at all... only stressed over it and didn't take my eyes off of it." She gave a laugh about that, and he was right the dipping of the bread into it made it just that much better. "You're quite welcome. You've done so much for me as it is, it's the least I could do."
Thor was more than happy digging in even scooping a bit more to his plate. "This is good bread takes the juices so well too," he added as well bread was a we need to use it, and well if it all failed they had bread! "You've been my guest here it's been nice to have some company," he added. Right now food on belly he reopened the liquor pouring both of them another drink. "Hooefully next time we both try this it's the age we know," he said as an added bonus to head to midguard.
Food in the belly did seem to help, Elisabeth smirking as he popped open the liquor again. "How do you plan to do such a thing? It takes at least five hundred years to age... and I don't know about you but I'm not patient enough to wait that long for my alcohol." She chuckled, memory of how it tasted the first time making her crinkle her nose as she smelt it. Bottoms up, she drank it quickly, not as bad now that her belly was fuller. "Oof. Still does not go down that easily. If I didn't know better I would say you're trying to get me drunk." She teased him.
"But good news is we could wait that long....we'd be old buuut," Thor teased as shot down he had to agree was bit bitter still. "Well I know a guy he can probably build something that could time travel the item probably....people bit more complicated," he joked as he well....at least he got a proper goodbye to his mother. Now he had more questions for her but those would never be answered till he went to Valhalla. They didn't need to be it didn't matter so much now, now that they were together again. He poured another shot grinning. "No more like just trying to use up before it goes stale," he said as not perfrctly aged.....didn't hold well once opened. "Happy to drink it if you dont want any," he teased.
"Time travel? Now there is a concept." Elisabeth said, crinkling her nose when he mentioned drinking more of it. "I am feeling good at this time, you can finish it." She gave a chuckle, and indeed it felt as though she was floating. Time travel... hmmm if only Elisabeth could travel back, talk to Frigga herself. Maybe get an idea of what Frigga expected her to do, as for right now she didn't feel like she was serving much purpose. Company? Perhaps. Maybe Frigga would have some hints and tips on how to get Thor to talk to Elisabeth. Right now he was smiling, and she didn't expect much more from him.
"Yep time travel," Thor said. He had a nice buzz going now. "Sent back to when we had the infinity stones, but sending just an item.shoukdnt be too bad, only hiccup might be stark is gone....but hey green man should help!" He said with hopes excitement. But that also ead to another question. They started all this because they both wanted pure liquor....what happened when they succeeded. He downed another shot, it had been a long while since he indulged this much now he was feeling it. Meal devoured.....he didnt quite remember doing that but dishes he had to do thise. He finished off the list for bites of food before he had hot water and plates soaking. "So now what shall we do?" He grinned at her face flushed red from all the drink.
The names he mentioned had no meaning to her, as he hadn't talked much about his friends on Midgard or really anything he had been up to. She got up with him once he started to clean the dishes, and it was then that the alcohol rush hit her. She had certainly had more than she normally would've, and it was a confidence booster she needed to try flirting with him again, to tease him. " Oh, there are plenty of things I can think of, with me and you." She chuckled, her skin feeling hot as she fumbled with his shirt she was wearing to ger it knotted up over her hips again. Of course doing this showed off those shorts of hers, but it also helped cool her skin a little.
Plates soaked fee minutes before he was washing them. He knew she was next to him finishing quickly as she played with her shirt. Underwear....he was calling them like they were, in view he mentally groaned again....but liquid courage with him.....screw it she couldn't be anymore obvious she wanted him. His hands were on her hips pulling her against him as he kissed her, needy, hungry, desperate for the attention.
Elizabeth's response to him was almost immediate, even though that time the teasing was unintentional. His wet hands on her didnt even bother her in the slightest as she pressed herself up against him, tilting her head to take that hard kiss with a groan against his lips. It occurred to her that this was the first time he had actually made the first move this entire time they had been together again, and the thought set her skin ablaze. Her hands found their spot at his arms, to ground her from turning into a puddle right there.
Elisabeth responded back to him same way which helped. Hands were steadying her hungry against her skin. He didnt stay till long as hands creeped down picking her up. He could do this liquid courage helping. He moved both of them to the bedroom pinning her under him as he laid her down on the bed. Hips ground into hers hand not staying still as he was peeling her shirt off her body before lips were at her neck wanting to hear her moans under him again.
The dead lift he did from her thighs had her wrapping her legs around his waist, tight like vines as he brought her to his room. Elisabeth moaned for him loudly, especially when he went for the weak spots on her neck immediately. Her hands were just as greedy as his, pulling at his sides just above where her thighs pressed against his hips. Her shirt gone it helped cool her down only for a brief moment as he pressed down on her. She wanted to feel his skin against hers, hands gripping at the bottom of his shirt.
All over her neck wanting to hear those sounds. It made no difference as she pulled his shirt up and he left her only to slip it off. Shirt gone he was cooler now but lips hot on her skin again. Hands against her sides lips trailed down teeth skimming as well as he came to the top of her breasts nipping. Red welts he was taking the nipple whole into his mouth, mouth encompassing as much of her breast as possible. Hand came to her other one grinning as he teased drawing the moans from her again.
Elisabeth never really played with her breasts. When she did it, it didn't do much for her. However, his hot mouth nipping at her skin and his wet tongue against her nipple sent shudders right down to her core. Her moans grew louder as she arched herself to his mouth, her hands finding his long hair and getting tangled in it, gripping lightly at first. She very well remembered that he liked his hair pulled, as she had found out that still worked with his beard, which was now tickling the underside of her breasts and only increasing the pleasurable sensations there. "Oh, Thor." She moaned out.
There it was. Her moans, body arching into him, it was all just like he remembered. Head spinning some from the booze he switched to her other breast. Deep groan came from him as she pulled at his hair....nothing hard yet but that would come. Hands free he moved shimmying the small fabric off. Now she was completely nude under him. Rough calloused hands traced along her thigh before fingers wasted zero time tracing her folds. Light easy before he slipped a finger inside, at least remembering how this all worked. Mouth finally teased her breasts enough as he continued down not taking no for an answer as broad shoulders settled between her legs before mouth teased along her thigh. Small nips, little marks left, leading up to his finger pulling her lips as mouth followed hot against her tongue thick as he pressed against her clit.
The sorry excuse for shorts gone completely now, she was expecting more hard and quick. He was taking his time instead, and a good thing too as her body needed to get used to someone else touching it again, his hands much larger than hers and able to reach where she needed him. He really wasn't going to take no for an answer, like Elisabeth would say no anyways as he wedged his shoulders between her legs. She more than gladly spread herself for him, quivering as his mouth teased and nipped at her sensitive inner thighs, before diving right into home that made her gasp and push her hips towards his tongue.
