The battle was over, but the aftermath was far from cleared. You were mildly injured, just like the rest of the team. it wasn't until you were back on the quinjet that you noticed Thor was near tears. "Um, hey buddy. Does it really hurt that much?" Thor shook his head. "I am not in physical pain, Lady Y/N." You sat down next to him and rubbed his back. You and Thor had formed an instant bond when you met and now you were best friends. You studied his face and it was then that you realized exactly why he was upset. His beautiful golden tresses had been cut on one side of his head.

"Oh, Thor! Your hair," you cooed, wrapping your arm around him. "It has lost its gloriousness," he boomed. "Hey, Thunderbolt, keep it down back there would ya?" Tony snapped irritably. Thor shut his mouth and looked down at the ground. "It's not so bad, Thor. When we get back to the Tower, we'll get cleaned up and I'll fix it, okay?" Thor said nothing, but gave a small smile. The man was definitely attached to his hair.

A few hours later, you were back at the Tower doing your best to fix Thor's hair. "Think of it this way. It could have been your face," you told him in an attempt to lift his spirits. He apparently did not appreciate it because he glared at you. You gave a little chuckle and finished up. Thor looked in the mirror and sighed heavily. "My thanks to you, Lady Y/N." You could tell by his tone of voice that he really didn't want to talk about it anymore.

You honestly felt bad for Thor. You knew in a lot of cultures, long hair was a thing to be proud of and Thor considered it one of his best assets. You gave his shoulder a pat and let him be for the time being while you thought about ways to make him feel better. You sat on your bed and ran your hand through your (h/c) hair. Suddenly, you had an idea. You smiled to yourself and went to fetch your scissors.

The next morning, you came down to breakfast with a skip in your step. You'd forgotten about what you had done the night before until someone dropped a coffee cup shattering it and three heads whipped around to look at you. "Look good, hot stuff!" Tony cried. You rolled your eyes and missed Thor's glare at the billionaire. You took your seat next to Thor as Steve slid a cup of coffee to you. "You have change your hair, Lady Y/N," Thor boomed, drawing everyone's attention back to you.

"I did. Do you like it?" Thor pondered for a moment, just staring at you. "It does not change how you appeal to me," he finally said causing you to blush. That was not something you ever thought you'd hear Thor say."I said the same thing about your hair yesterday," you whispered. "Why don't we give the lovebirds some privacy?" Tony piped up and lead everyone else from the room. "Lovebirds? I do not understand," Thor said looking to you for answers. You were blushing furiously.

"Tony,um he's been after me to tell you for a while now..."you murmured andThor's eyes lit up with realization. "I understand now. Lady Y/N, I havesomething to say. I have feelings for you of a romantic nature," he toldyou, a look of pride painted on his face. You giggled at the way he spoke."Oh, Thor. I think the Midgardian words you're looking for are that youlike me." He nodded slowly. You approached him carefully, placed one hadon his cheek and brought your lips to his in a sweet kiss. "I like you too, Thor," you toldhim when you parted. {$0
