Chapter Text
Frigga's heart trembled all the time her kids fought. She feared they could get but to her surprise, even Loki did extremely well. There was no other kid that could stop them. They just kept winning all over again. Odin celebrated each victory like if it was the end of the war with Jotunheim.
If Frigga's heart ached when Thor and Loki received damage, her heart almost turned to ashes when the final fight came. It was obvious. Both boys haven't lost not even once and lucky had they been to not have crossed each other before.
"Odin, my love, I beg you to stop this madness" - Frigga said scared - "They are not ready"
"My queen, it's just for fun" - Odin laughed
Frigga wasn't that sure. She could see that mischievous look on Loki's eyes and that determined one Thor had when going to fight. They were taking that seriously.
"Loki, please" - Frigga tried to be reasonable- "You don't have to fight Thor"
"Mother" - Loki stared at her with those sparkling green eyes - "Could it be you do not trust my abilities?"
"It isnt like that" - Frigga tried again - "I just don't want you to hurt each other"
"It's not like I will kill him" - Loki pouted -" Its just a game"
Frigga failed to convince both sons. At least Loki listened to her but Thor... the blond boy was busier trying to ask her for Loki's weakness.
"Mom said she was worried and that we shouldn't fight " - Loki told Thor before coming out to the battlefield- "She seemed scared"
"If you plan using our Mother's name to avoid this fight go ahead, 'princess' "
"You don't respect me" - Loki frowned - "I will show you how it's done"
"I would like to see that"
"It's a pity you won't be able to see anything" - Loki muttered
It happened really quick. Frigga didn't expect the result. No one on Asgard nor the entire galaxy did.
Loki was standing victorious in front of a pale Thor that surrendered easily. Not even ten minutes had gone since the match started. Odin was still trying to figure out what has happened when Loki's green emerald eyes sparkled once again.
It felt like if a wave of cold air had filled the whole place. Everyone was almost freezing... because of fear. In fact, it could had been possibly true that the only one that wasn't frightened at all was Frigga. Loki's eyes had brought a silent panic to all the presents. Even Odin, the all father, felt intimidated.
After Loki got proclaimed winner, Frigga rushed to help both boys. Thor was still in a shock state. He looked paler than ever.
"Loki... he is scary" - Thor gulped down anxiously- "He isn't a normal baby"
"He is not a baby anymore, Thor" - Frigga decided to focus on that rather than the fact indeed Loki wasn't a normal Asgardian
"No" - Thor shook his head in denial- "He is a baby! He is my baby brother!"
"I'm not baby" - Loki scoffed from behind - "Not even close"
Loki's face had changed a lot. He was now calm and had a sweet expression.
"I won" - Loki pouted cutely - "You said I was a baby that couldn't win but I won"
"That doesn't change the fact you are baby" - Thor bickered
"I'm not!" - Loki stomped his feet - "I even kicked your ass, Thor! Why won't you accept I'm growing up?! "
"Because..." - Thor's face changed - "Because you are my baby brother and I hoped you would always be!"
An awkward silence filled room. Only footsteps could be heard. When the footsteps stopped, Odin showed up.
"My boys" - Odin smiled - "Let me congratulate both of you"
For a while, the conversation was left aside. They attended the party and behaved like always. Only at bed time, the brothers continued the talk.
"Thor... are you asleep?" - Loki whispered - "Thor?"
Loki shook his brother using his small hands. He pouted when there was no response.
"Of course I am" - Thor chuckled - "Who can sleep with you being awake?"
"Sorry" - Loki blushed - "Today... I just.. overdid it. I just wanted to avoid a fight and May have used too much magic"
"Don't worry" - Thor shook his head - "I understand"
"Thor" - Loki started again - "Why did you say I'm not going to be your baby brother anymore?"
"Because you are growing and you aren't a baby now" - Thor sighed - "I was blind and didn't want to admit it. Right now you are more like an equal to me"
"Thor" - Loki nuzzled his cheeks against his brother - "I want to be your baby brother forever"
Thor laughed. Only Loki could come with something like that.
"It's alright, then" - Thor agreed - "I will recognize your strength and intellect but to me you will always be 'little' "
"I love you, Thor" - Loki yawned - "Let's never forget that"
"Never" - Thor smiled as he saw his brother falling asleep
Weeks later, the brothers were just as always. Getting in troubles. Thor and Loki were naughty at different levels but still naughty. Frigga was happy that her boys finally seemed to understand each other's feeling despite fighting sometimes.
She decided to not get mad when she heard a crash.
"Sorry Mother!" - She heard the two boys apologizing.
Thor and Loki had different personalities. One was the sun and the other one the moon. However, instead of eclipsing each other... when together they both shone the most. They were brighter than any other star Frigga had seen.
