Hestia flung the door open harshly, her flaming hair clearly showing that she was not at all happy that I had been listening in on their conversation, "Adam!" Hestia said, narrowing her eyes at me.
"Quack," Transformed into a duck as any man in my position would do, I quacked, I had, after all, to keep the flawless facade I was nothing but a duck, and she wouldn't notice.
"Adam... I won't cook you for a month if you keep this up!" Hestia threatened, and I immediately returned to my normal form, a man needs his food.
"I know this looks bad, but…" annnnnnd I had nothing, "Ok, I have no excuse, sorry for doing this… in my defence, Odin set me up," old bastard.
"You heard everything didn't you?" Hestia inquired, her eyes turning to the size averting my gaze.
"Enough," I sighed.
"Adam, I don't know if I can do this," Hestia muttered, "I'm not sure I can,"
I looked at her and smiled, "It's okay," I assured her, "I know, don't worry," If only she knew how much I wanted to be with her, how much I wanted to simply lie down next to her on the couch or a bed, wrapping my arms around her, brushing her hair while watching a movie or maybe just sleeping together. But not in the fuck sense, I wasn't against the idea, sure, but that's not what I wanted from her, what I really wanted was to sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase.
"Adam," Hestia muttered in shock, and I got confused, why was she so shocked?! With curiosity, I followed her gaze and noticed all I was thinking, every single thought related to her, was there, floating above my head, what in the actual fuck!?
"See?" Freyja chuckled, "The kid is one in a million, a man that doesn't think with his dick, and what a nice dick he has," she was reading my m-- what a minute, how does she know I have a nice dick?! wait can I even say I have a nice dick, is that gay? I need ANSWERS!
"How do--" I was cut off by Freyja who answered by materializing a pot of honey, "Honey…."
"So, just the same?" Hestia giggled, "I can do that, watching movies with you, making evil plans… I can handle that, and if things ever change, it will be because we were both ready,"
"Hestia, as long as you keep being my best friend, my pillar, I don't care… I knew the moment I realized I fell for you, that my chances were close to zero, and I was okay with it, all I want is for you to be happy, and some cookies," I winked at her.
"You truly are unique," Hestia chuckled, "I can hook you up with some cookies, courtesy of the mighty HESTIA!"
"I give you two a month or two," Freyja stated, "You two are like two pieces of a nerdy puzzle, that just fits… maybe three months depending on the war,"
"I… okay?" Hestia chuckled.
"Oh, by the way, tell Odin… I am coming for him," That old man had it coming, and he would now get his, and he would not see it coming.
"Odin wanted me to give you this," Freyja chuckled, giving me a note.
~I will see it coming, but bring it in bitch!~ Odin
"I hate him," I sighed.
"Thank you for understanding me," Hestia hugged me.
"Forever and always, Hestia," I smiled, hugging her back.
"I can't… I can't say I will be ready any time soon, perhaps I never will… but…. Just don't ever leave me alone, I don't want to be alone again," Hestia muttered, tears rolling down my chest, "I can't take being alone anymore, not being heard… not being important to anybody,"
"Hestia, I will never… ever do that," I assured her, "Besides, you are the only one that can handle my problematic pranking ass,"
"It is indeed a very pranking ass," Hestia nodded between giggles.
"Indeed," I chuckled.
"A very good ass," Freyja said dreamily.
"Ok, let's go," I chuckled, teleporting a glaring Hestia away from Freyja, the target of her glare.

[Odin POV]
As soon as Adam left, I teleported to Freyja and asked, "So, how long do you give them before they fall for each other?"
"More?" Freyja snorted, "I think the question is, how long before they actually start being a couple,"
At that I nodded, "Sorry, I just… kinda ship them,"
"Well, at much, I give them a few months before Hestia gives in," Freyja chuckled, "She's the one that needs to accept her feelings fully,"
"Good," I sighed, everything was going according to my plan.
"Odin, the kid… his heart, his soul… they are almost gone," Freyja stated, sending a glare my way, "His aura was downright terrifying, a part of him wanted to rip me apart… the kid is hanging on a threat… a fragile one at that,"
"I know," I nodded, "Hestia is the reason he has yet to show what his father wants him to be,"
"It scares me," Freyja admitted, "How something so pure has turned so dark… it's… unsettling, I see him… and I see death walking amongst us, I see Hestia and I see a kind soul, and when he looks at her, that kindness soothes the beast inside of him…. But for how long will this last… for how long before that kid just embraces what is inside him,"
"He's not ready to face his reality," I stated, one day he would… I had seen it, in two possible timelines, out of ten million ones, so there was still a chance, a 0.000019999999999999998% chance of avoiding the end of times, "He will get better, eventually, he will learn, and grow, and one day he will have to face his demons instead of perpetually running away from them… but for now, Hestia is the key to his inner victory or his outdoing,"
"I will never understand why you risk so much for a kid we barely know," Freyja sighed.
