Avengers: Imagines

Scene: You and Thor go to an aquarium.

BEEP BEEP BEEP! BEEP BEEP BE-

"Gaaagh!" You punched the obnoxious alarm clock off of your nightstand. It clicked off and onto the radio as you grudgingly stood up and stretched. They began playing "Bright" by Echosmith.

"I think the universe is on my side. Heaven and Earth have finally aligned."

You sang along as you worked to brush your hair and teeth.

"Days are good. And that's the way it should be. You sprinkle stardust on my pillowcase. It's like a moonbeam brushed across my face."

You then wash your face.

"Nights are good. And that's the way it should be. You make me sing 'ooh ooh, la la la!' You make a girl go 'ooh, I'm in love, love!'"

You suddenly realized you had to get to work early today, for reasons. You sprinted to your closet and pulled out your S.H.I.E.L.D. uniform. You pulled it over your head and grabbed your shoes before you hopped back to the bathroom.

But, by just your luck, you slip on a rug and fall backwards. Your head lands on the carpet that goes off into your room, so your back got most of the shock. You groaned as you sat up and tried to put your hair in a braid, but it was not working with you. You then tried to put it in a ponytail, but every time, it would look stringy and it had bumps.

Messy bun it is!

You realized it was almost time to leave. "Sherbet fudge." You muttered under your breath as you got up to put your contacts in. But, you couldn't find them. You swept the counters, searching all over. You then realized what you had to do, horrified.

So, you grabbed your things and walked to your car, flaunting a messy bun, bulky nerd glasses, and not to your knowing, a Nutella smudge on your cheek.

You drove quickly, trying to get through traffic. And then, you were stuck behind the slowest old lady driver in the history of old lady drivers. She was going three miles per hour at the most. "Come on!" You shouted, knowing you would be toast if you were late. Surprisingly, the old lady gave you the finger and sped off as the light turned green. You grumbled as you drove on to work.

As you went inside, you mentally groaned as you heard Fury's voice. "Agent (Y/L/N), you're late." You flipped your frown into a forced grin as you turned around to look at him. "Yes, sir. I've realized that." He stared you down with his one, cold eye. "Do you know what happens to agents that are late?" You gulped, feeling the icy authority emanating from him. "No, sir, I do not." He smiled. "Well then, you're about to."

*****
Before you knew it, you were in your tank top, some shorts, some tennis shoes, a messy bun, bulky nerd glasses, and you still hadn't managed to wipe off the Nutella. And, you were running.

"We need to keep field agents in shape!" Fury yelled with his hands behind his back every time you passed him on the track. The track was outside, and it was hot as blue blazes. Sweat was pouring down from your forehead, and it was getting in your eyes. You kept trying to wipe it away, but your glasses were in the way.

"Go! Go! Go! Pick those knees up! I want to see some effort! Come on, my grandmother can move faster than that! And she's dead!" Fury was just trying to get under your skin, you knew that. "I get it!" You scowled back to him.

Suddenly, hurdles popped up out of nowhere.

You have got to be kidding me, you thought.

You jumped over the first one, a couple inches over.

So far, so good.

The next one, you barely made it over. Then, you heard footsteps beside you. "Hello, Lady (Y/N)!" A voice boomed. You turned to see Thor in a tight T-shirt and some sweatpants, with part of his hair tied up, jogging next to you. "Hi, Thor."

His muscles were able to be seen through the thin fabric, rippling across his body and strands of fallen hair framed his face. He looked like a sexy beast.

Hot da-

You tripped and face planted onto the rough ground. From a distance, you could hear Fury laughing. You looked up to see Thor crouched next to you, concerned. "Why did you kiss the ground, fair maiden? Were you giving it a blessing?" He asked, tilting his head adorably. You snorted. "Nope. Just doing a gravity check. Hah, looky there, still works." You huffed as you got up and dusted yourself off.

After that disaster, Fury was merciful enough to let you go in and shower. Yeah, S.H.I.E.L.D. has a locker room. You got used to it pretty quickly. You sang as the freezing (painful) water soothed your aching muscles.

"Did you see that shooting star tonight?
Were you dazzled by the same constellation?
Did you and Jupiter conspire to get me?
I think you and the Moon and Neptune got it right.
'Cause now I'm shining bright, so bright.
Bright, so bright."

You dried your hair and put it up in the same messy bun, and shoved the colossal glasses onto your face. As soon as you walked out of the bathroom, you immediately bumped into something wet. And hard.

"I apologize, My Lady. I didn't mean to intrude on your privacy." Yep, that's right. You bumped into Thor's rippling pectorals, and that meant he hadn't showered yet, which meant...

"Were you listening to me this whole time?" You asked, heat rising to your cheeks and your stomach dropping. His nervous smile faltered. "Well, I was about to enter the chamber of waters, when I heard an elegant melody from this chamber of waters. I presumed it must have been your voice, so I listened. I do have to say, your voice is within comparison to the softest silk and the sweetest honey. Not even the most beautiful note of a nightingale could compete with your song."

You could barely contain the butterflies in your stomach and they were fixing to come up as vomit. "Oh, umm, thank you... Thor." He grinned. "Your welcome, My Lady." And then he left to take a shower, and your heart was about to burst out of your chest.

*****
You finally called your best friend, (F/N) for the last time. Same thing, nothing. Nobody. No one at all. You were going to be all alone. On your birthday.

Your parents lived too far away, your best friend was on a business trip, and all of your siblings were busy with other things. You felt your emotions come up, nearly turning to tears.

Am I important to any one? No one? Nobody at all?

That's when you felt a tap on your shoulder. "Lady (Y/N), why are you crying? Surely it is a joyous day and there many reasons to have a jaunty laugh, but I can think of none for the shedding of tears."

You put on a small smile. "Nothing is wrong. I'm fine, but thanks, Thor." Thor shook his head. "Tony Stark has warned me of the trickery women play when they say, 'I'm fine.' Supposedly, this means they are 'screaming on the inside for stupid males to hear', or that is what the Man of Iron tells me."

You gave a light laugh. "Please tell me what has upset you, for I will vanquish it to bring you happiness." Thor looked into your eyes pleadingly, as if he really would. "It's just, it's my birthday today and-" Thor smiled. "It is the day of your birth? I congratulate you!" You shook your head. "But none of my friends or family can make it, so I'll be all alone-" Thor shook his head profusely. "Nonsense. You will have me! How do you want to celebrate this glorious day?"

"Well," You thought about it. You had the rest of the day to spend with Thor on your birthday. Where would you-

"Oh! I know!"

*****
Thor payed for your way in with some money he borrowed from Tony. The aquarium was beautiful. It was all made of tunnels, where you walk through and the glass surrounding you showed fish of all kinds swimming around you.

Light filtered through the crystalline blue water, casting a glow over your features. You didn't know Thor enjoyed this as you ran up to the glass, where Nemo was swimming in place. "Nemo!" You shouted as the fish even had a smaller fin on one side. Thor walked up behind you. He pointed to a sign below the glass. "It appears this fish is a clownf-" "No, it's Nemo." You stated.

He chuckled. "Fine. It is a Nemo fish." You grinned back up before you saw a gray figure swimming several feet away. "Dolphins!" You grinned excitedly. "Look Thor!" He chuckled as he waved at the dolphin, and it surprisingly screeched back.

A voice came over the speakers. "Sting Ray Shore is now open for two hours! You can pet the sting rays and feed them too! Come see them now!" You turned, but Thor was already walking towards the sting ray area.

*****
"This one is adorable." You cooed as you slid your hand across the glossy surface of the sting ray, Murphy's, back. He was gliding through the water in circles, letting your hand reach every spot in his back. "It appears this animal likes you." Thor smiled. You nodded.

"(Y/N)." You turned, surprised. Thor had never called you by only your name. "Yeah?" You retracted your hand from Murphy. "I am by no means a skilled wordsmith." You sat, your face still showing confusion. "But, I must tell you of my... Of my condition." He leaned in closer, almost too close.

Please tell me it's not an air-born infection...

You backed up a bit more, your hand on the edge of the ledge. "I have... I have..." With every word, he leaned forward more and you leaned backwards more. "I have... fallen in love with you." Your eyes popped open wide. "What?" That's when your hand slipped and you fell backwards into the shallow pool of sting rays.

Water flew over your face and you quickly sat up, bonking heads with Thor. "Ow." You both muttered, and then laughed. When your laughter died down, he requested a towel and had you sit down on a bench while he tried to warm you up from the cold water.

"I apologize, My Lady. I did not realize what I had to say would have such an effect on you. I will not mention it a-" You stopped him with a sweet, lasting kiss. It tasted like saltwater and Nutella. You parted and he stared at you as you looked at two Dolphins swimming in an upwards spiral, encircling one another. "I am falling in love with you too, I guess." You mumbled, turning your gaze to the floor.

"I... I liked that." Thor finally spoke. He gently pulled your chin back to him again with his index finger and thumb. "Another." He whispered before encasing you in another enticing kiss.
