"That is understandable. It can be hard but only as hard as you wish them to be." Frigga told him. She smiled back to her son, soon looking over to Riza. "It is alright. We have not forgotten you Riza. Come walk beside us. Have you rode a horse?" Frigga asked. Riza came up beside Frigga. "Only with Loki when we came here. Other than that, I havent been on a horse." Frigga smiled. "Then it seems I get to help change that." Riza smiled nervously, she had never been on a horse besides the time with Loki. She didn't think being on a horse alone was such a good idea. But you had to start somewhere right? The young Stark pulled some of her hair out of her face before her gaze was upon Loki. Unsure as to why but she didn't know what to say. Frigga simply lead them to the stables.

LOki nodded a bit "Yeah I suppose." He pushed it aside after that. He decided he should try just be happier and not worry about it for now. "Ah and yeah Riza you don't have to keep your distance."
He smiled and walked by her and his mother. "Ah riding be a nice idea, won't be able to for awhile when I go back to Midgard, I do miss my horse alot." he sighed. "If you are too nervous to be on your own you can ride again with me, but if you want to try on your own, I will be close by." He was sure that things would be ok if he kept watch over her, he blushed a bit "Your choice."

Riza blushed at the ideas that Loki purposed to her about the horse back riding and had no idea what she should or but guessing that Loki seemed comfortable with either of them, there was no reason to ask. "Would you mind if I rode with you, Loki? I don't think I could ride on my own just yet." 'why oh why did I have to blush of all times!' Riza asked Loki before ranting to herself about her actions. She hoped both Frigga and Loki didn't see. She seemed to look quite nervous, unsure if all this was a good idea. But she had to stay with either Thor or Loki and Thor had kingly business to attend to. Plus she would never know. It could be fun.

"Ah ok that is fine, I don;t mind." LOki was smiling. He just wanted her to be comfortable. He knew that he was falling for her, but he was too scared to say anything. He had never thought he would fall in love with anybody. Loki though was scared she only liked him as a friend. He didn't want to say anything yet, He was almost hoping she would.
"Hey its ok no need to be nervous."
The god walked over to his horse and petted him, He offered to help her onto the horse.

Frigga, Loki and Riza had arrived to the stables, she watched as Loki went over to his horse and pet his horse. Riza came up to Loki's horse, Sleipnir. Being nervous and though trying not to, Sleipnir felt her uneasiness and moved his head away from Riza's hand. But later accepted the help from Loki to get on. She saw Frigga on her horse and looking over to Loki and Riza.

"Horses can sense how you are feeling, he'll sense you are nervous." Loki explained "Just try stay calm it will help." He smiled softly. The god seemed to speaking softly. He held onto her,
The god gave a gesture for his horse to move slowly forward when she was ready.
Loki loved riding and seemed very good with animals.

Riza listened to Loki when he explained that a horse could sense ones emotions. She nodded a little. "Oh. O-okay. She feels Loki holding onto her while giving a gesture to Sleipnir to walk on. While Sleipnir walked on, Frigga rode next to them. They were out of the stables and out toward the city part of Asgard. Riza looked down at the reins before looking up at Loki as best as she could. "May I take the reins?" She asked. Knowing that if she wanted to learn than she could learn the reins and what to do.

LOki was looking at her, He smiled a bit "It is ok." He assured her. The god wanted her to be as relaxed as possible. He rode and was looking around. The god seemed to be enjoying riding with her.
Hearing her want the reins Loki smiled more "here." he let her take charge. Loki trusted her and wondered how she would be at this for the first time. "Be patient with her." He whispered to his horse. "And don't panic." He then looked back at Riza. "Don't you panic either Riza." his voice was soft.

A smile formed on Riza's lips, actually feeling relaxed during the ride. She wasn't too relaxed but relaxed that the young Stark wouldn't have made Sleipnir feel anymore uneasy than he had been since she had been on his back. Being given the reins, Riza took them, not having a hold of them too softly or too tightly. Though both of Riza and Loki's horse being told not to panic felt a bit unnecessary but nodded and blushed a little in hopes the god wouldn't notice. The mare only snorted as a reply. Surveying her surrounding, Riza was trying not have anyone knocked over or go too fast. She was doing rather well so far as was Sleipnir.
Frigga was watching and could see how much Loki was enjoying the other's company. She saw the same for Riza enjoying Loki's company. Her horse slowed a little but not my much. She let Riza and Sleipnir lead the way.
Wondering through the city, the female Stark had been getting the hang on it, letting Loki's horse lead but direct when wanted to turn. The ride was going really well. "You are doing really well for your first time." Frigga praised. Riza smiled at the praise, feeling really good about this. "Thank you. I thought it would have been a little more difficult than I thou- Ah!" What caused Riza to get startled as well as Sleipnir was someone coming passed quickly with no warning. The mare had back up but reared when the someone fell back and tried to scurry back. Riza didnt know what to do but try and stay on the horse and keep ahold of the reins. Frigga's horse got startled but she got her horse under control and back the horse up a bit.

Loki was pleased with how well she was doing, he merely directed her when she was stuck. The god was proud of her efforts. "Your doing good." He told her.
He was looking around where they were, He seemed very alert. The god seemed to know alot about riding horses now, so when he saw his horse startled, he got his horse under control so they didn't fall off.
"Its ok Riza." he smiled a bit.
The god was looking around, he wondered what had happened. He told his horse it was ok. Loki seemed impressed with how well she had been doing to begin with.
"Things like this happen, but you still did good, I have fallen quite badly during my first ride."

Riza felt Loki's efforts to help settle his horse so they didnt fall. Feelung that she was going to have heart failure or something.similar to it, Riza remembered to breath after having the realization that she had been holding her breathe. Hearing Loki's comforting and praised words, the you female tried to calm down before smiling softly. "Thank you." She looked around tk see what may have happened. Though as if it was only rumors now, Frigga came up.beside them. "Are you both alright? That came out of no where."

Loki was looking at her "No problem," he smiled at her "I'm just glad we didn't fall, I didn't want you hurt again. " He was looking around. He seemed to be quite calm.
"Ok well guess we can carry on."
He smiled a bit. The god seemed calm and petted his horse on its neck.

Looking up to look upon Loki, she heard his relieved words as she saw how calm the god of mischief was after this. But then compared to what the god has been through, this would be a walk in the park. Duh! Riza mentally wacked herself in the head. Though she hadnt noticed, her cheeks were turning a bright pink before she looked away and looked ahead. Sleipnir walked on when Loki pet his neck. Riza kept hold of he reins when the mare continued on. Frigga followed on.

LOki was looking around. Though like Riza thought this was nothing much to him . But also nothing too new. He soon found himself blushing as well.
The god knew that he was falling for Riza. He tried to not make it noticeable he was blushing. The god though knew he would have to carry on.
"Well lets carry on," He stated.

Walking along the streets of the city, the hooves of the horses clanked along the stone, the sun shines and made shadows of the buildings that stood firm and strong. "So do you have a temporally have a residence on Midgard, my son?" Frigga asked him, Riza decided to answer though it wasn't her question to answer. "He has been temporally residing at my home. Its a decent size enough for a few people." She told Frigga with a smile. His mother smiled sweetly. "That is good."

"Yeah I am currently staying with Riza for now, I still don't really know what I am doing." Loki sighed. He knew he needed more of a plan as it was his life.
The god wasn't sure what would make him happy and where would make him happy. He only knew that Riza was helping make him happier.
"I only know Riza makes me happy."

Frigga smiled for she was nothing but happy that Loki had found someone that made him happy. From her view, Riza had looked up to see Loki with the best of her abilities from where she was on the horse. She was blushing more than when she had before. The young Stark was smiling softly, but inside she was stunned to hear this from the god of mischief. Did he really like her that much to say that she made him happy? She would admit that within the five or so days that they were with each other, Riza did feel surprisingly happy when around Loki. Even though the god felt bad about worrying so much and about his past, RIza didn't care. She saw Loki for what he had become now and that his past no longer mattered. Still having hold of the reins, and her hazel red eyes on Loki. "As Loki makes me happy." Riza replied to the god's statement.
Loki's mother smiled even more at this moment. "I am overjoyed with such news. No doubt if Thor was to hear of this, he would have the kingdom celebrating for days."

Loki was looking at her, he smiled and blushed again. He really did like her. But those words were so hard to say.
"I make you happy?" He was surprised as he never thought he would make another person happy. He always thought he was too miserable to be able to do that.
"Ah Thor can always find reason to celebrate." He knew his brother loved having large feasts and celebrating. All of that had never been Loki's scene.

The young Stark thought that she wouldnt be blushing so much till now. She saw how surprised he was to hear what she had said, but heard it in his voice as well. Riza nodded in reply. "Yes. I know we have only known each other for a week at least but I admit that I have felt happy around you. Not just bybyou being around but also getting to know you as we spend time together."

"Ah, I just usaully I am so down, I never thought I'd make anybody happy," Loki admitted. He blushed a bit more. "I umm... really like you," He was even redder in the face "I umm...," He was quiet for awhile.
Oh come on you fool spit it out he thought.
Loki was looking around where he was.
