Summary: After the attack, Y/N offers Loki a deal for some short of freedom. A lot can happen when two people live together.
Warning/Content: small angst, smut.
A/N: Song: Like Real People Do - Hozier.
After the attack, they had locked Loki on a short of cell in the tower. After a couple of hours of being locked, Y/N went down to where he was. She walked in the room, nodding at the guards and stopping in front of his cell. She was a new face, one Loki didn’t recognize from the fight. Loki eyed her and raising a brow in slight confusion. He stood up and looked her up and down.
“I don’t think we’ve met yet.” Y/N says, with a gentle tone.
Loki smirked a tad, crossing his arms as he looked at her, tilting his head a little as he did “I suppose we haven’t, I would have remembered you if we had. And who are you?”
She gave him a polite smile “You can call me Y/N.”
He smiled a little at her. “Y/N, it’s a pretty name. Do you have a last name?”
“I do.”
“And what exactly would that be?” Loki leaned against the wall behind him.
“You don’t need to know. For now.”
Loki chuckled a little bit, finding her attitude rather amusing and entertaining “That’s not very nice. I want to know it though”
“So...” she starts “big attack with aliens and all, huh?”
He shrugged, crossing his arms behind his back as his gaze turned to the cell door for a moment before back to her “Yes, yes. My plan didn’t quite work out as I hoped for”
“I can see that.” Y/N gave a small chuckle.
Loki couldn’t deny that he found her chuckle endearing. He hummed a bit in slight annoyance as he moved slightly “You’re quite enjoying my current situation, aren’t you?”
“I little, yes. I do recall you throwing Tony out of his own tower.”
“And I recall him annoying me” Loki said, a slight tone of annoyance in his voice.
“It’s his specialty. Annoy people.” Y/N shakes her head.
Loki chuckled a small bit, finding that statement to be very true “Worried with your boyfriend?”
“He’s not my boyfriend.”
He nodded a little, taking that information and processing it. It made his smirk shift slightly “Right. And what is he to you?”
Y/N smiled a little “Someone close. That’s all you’re getting from me.”
“That doesn’t say much. How close?” Loki moved a bit, now walking around the cell slowly as he looked at her, his tone was rather casual, and it also held a slight hint of curiosity.
“Close. And that that will never happen between me and him. It’s actually disgusting to think.”
Loki chuckled at her statement, finding it quite interesting that she was grossed out by the idea. He smirked a little as he spoke “Oh? You’re grossed out by the thought? Why’s that?”
Y/N chuckles, changing the subject “Aren’t you curious about what’s gonna happen with you now?”
He hummed “I am curious. I figure I’m not gonna get a good future though”
“Your lovely brother says he wants to take you back to Asgard, something about answering for your crimes, a trial and a cell...”
Loki rolled his eyes as she told what his fate was gonna be, crossing his arms as he spoke “A cell in the dungeons of Asgard… of course. It was to be expected I suppose”
“It didn’t have to be like that.” Y/N spoke, looking at him.
That got his attention. He raised a eyebrow at her as she spoke, tilting his head slightly “What do you mean it didn’t have to be?”
Y/N grins “What if I could offer something a little different. Not a cell...”
He shifted a little bit on his feet as he spoke “What exactly are you planning on offering me?”
“A bedroom.”
Loki was surprised by that answer, to say the least “A bedroom? That’s what you’re offering?”
“I’m not offering you freedom, if that’s what you’re wondering. I’m just offering you something better than a cell in the dungeons of Asgard. Better food. Comfort.”
That definitely made Loki quite curious. A cell in the dungeons of Asgard and going back to Thor and dealing with the rest of Asgard… or whatever she was offering. He weighed his options in his mind, before speaking “So I get a bedroom. What’s the catch though?”
“Well, the bedroom is in this tower. And you would have to live with the rest of the team.” Y/N spoke.
He chuckled, not liking the sound of having to live with the rest of the team, but it was better then going back to Asgard “I’ll be staying in the same place as the rest of your precious avengers?”
Y/N also chuckles “I guess I could get you a room in my floor, if you promise not to kill me in my sleep.”
There was a grin on his face as well as he spoke, his eyes flickering over her “I see. I won’t kill you in your sleep. You have my word”
She nods “That way you won’t need to interact with the team if you don’t want to. Oh, also you cannot leave the tower alone.”
Loki nodded in response, listening to her as she laid down some basic rules for him. It sounded like a pretty sweet deal actually. A private room and no interaction with the team often, that sounded like a great deal. He smirked a little “No big interactions with the team and I can’t leave the tower without any of you. I can do that”
“And not kill me. Or anyone else.” She smiles, having a litte of fun in this.
He waved his hand in a ‘pft’ motion “No killing you or anyone else. I’m a man of my word”
Y/N nods “I’m trusting you on this.”
Loki gave her a small smile in response, finding it interesting that she was trusting him on it. “I’m curious. Why exactly are you offering me something like this? It doesn’t make much sense”
“The team might need your...how can I put this...your expertise sometime in the future.” Y/N says as she signals for one of the guards to come to them.
He nodded “You expect you’ll need my magic at some point?”
“Exactly.” Another nod.
Loki chuckled at that, feeling a sense of pride knowing that she saw his magic as useful, and that he could be a powerful asset “So let me get this straight. I get my own room, you need my magic for the future, I can’t leave the tower by myself and I’m not allowed to kill anyone.”
“Oh, and no pranks. Thor said you used to do a lot of those in Asgard.” She chuckles.
Loki smirked. Of course the thunder-brained oaf would say that. He huffed in annoyance at the fact Thor had mentioned them, rolling his eyes as he responded “Oh of course he mentioned the pranks. Well I suppose I can promise no pranks.”
“So, do we have a deal?” Her tone was more serious now.
He took in everything she had given him, making sure he remembered everything. He then gave a slight smirk, nodding his head “We have a deal.”
“Great.” she smiles at him and nod to the guard to open his cell. Loki pushed himself off the wall as he watched the guards open the cell. He stretched once before walking out of the cell and standing in front of her, giving a small smirk as he looked down at her. It was a bit intimidating considering he had quite the height advantage over her.
Y/N pulled an ancient bracelet out of her pocket, looking at it “They said I should put this on you...but I think I can give you the benefit of the doubt.”
Loki looked at the bracelet in her hands, raising a brow slightly. He glanced at a guard that was near them before looking back at her “What does it do?”
She looks back at him “It blocks your magic.”
He crosses his arms over his chest as he spoke “A magic blocking bracelet. I see. Very nice.”
“Can you blame people for not trusting you that easily?” Y/N asks but Loki just rolls his eyes. “Should I put this on you? Or can I really trust you?”
Loki tilted his head as he looked at the bracelet and then back at her. He looked at her for a few seconds before sighing and hodl his hands out to her “Fine. Put the bracelet on me.”
“Why?”
Loki looked at her for a second before rolling his eyes. The sooner she put the bracelet on, the sooner they would be out of here “Are you really going to question why I’m letting you put a bracelet on that clearly blocks my magic?”
“Yes. I was expecting you would put more of a fight, saying ‘yeah, you can trust me’ or something like that.” Y/N was clearly surprised.
He rolled his eyes again, sighing in slight annoyance, before looking at her and speaking again, in a slightly exasperated tone “Can we just put the stupid bracelet on? We’re wasting time.”
Y/N nods and closed the piece around his wrist carefully to not hurt him and immediately Loki felt the effect of the bracelet blocking his magic. He tried to make something with his seidr but when he tried to he felt the magic hit an invisible wall.
"Come.” Y/N says walking to the elevator and Loki followed behind her. She looks at him for a few seconds after the elevator started moving. “Does it hurt?”
Loki looked down at the bracelet again, feeling it’s slightly cold metal against his skin as he walked. “No, it doesn’t hurt. It’s just...limiting”
Y/N gave a small nod, before she starts speaking again “My floor is one of the most privates one in the tower. I have my own kitchen, living room, two bedrooms with private bathrooms, one if mine, of course...” Loki nodded as he listened to her explain the floor she was leading him to. He found he was quite okay with the sound of all of it. He’d have his own room, access to a kitchen and a living room. It sounded good actually. “Oh, and there’s a small library too, if you’re interested in reading.”
His interest was peaked as she said there was a library too. A library? That sounded good. “There’s a library too?”
She chuckles “Like I said, a small one.”
Loki let out a small chuckle as well, the image of a small library was already in his mind “I must say, your floor does sound rather nice”
“Well, you’ll see.”
He nodded in response to that. “How often do the rest of the Avengers use your floor?”
“Not much. We usually hang together in the common one, where there’s the meeting room, gym, a short of cinema room...” She explains as the elevator was almost stopping.
Loki leaned his back against the elevator wall, continuing to look at her. He watched her silently for a moment, taking her in as he spoke “A floor all to yourself too. Quite a luxury if I’m being honest. Stark must be really trying to conquer you.”
Y/N chuckles “He isn’t.”
Loki chuckled at that, finding it hard to believe that the great, egotistical and cocky Tony Stark, didn’t have at least some sort of crush or interest in her “You expect me to believe that Stark doesn’t have some sort of interest in you?”
“Yes.” Oh, if only Loki knew.
“You can expect me to believe that a man like him hasn’t at least attempted something with you?” He says studying her.
Y/N laughs a little “Maybe one day I’ll explain why.”
Loki looked at her as she spoke, curious to find out the answer to his question. He shook his head a little as he shrugged slightly “And why don’t you tell me now?”
“It’s a conversation for the future.” Y/N knew that if she told him in the cell or now that she was Tony’s litte sister, Loki would never agree to this, he would think they would have a hiding agenda or something, since he clearly couldn’t stand her brother. Just in time to save her from this conversation, the elevator dings and open the door for them in her floor. “Come on, I’ll show you around.”
Y/N showed him the whole floor as he followed her, looking around and seeing everything. She showed him the kitchen, living room, the small library until they stopped at the door of his new room. When she opened the door to his new room, he looked in and saw it. A large bedroom area, with a king size bed, a night stand and a dresser. A walk in closet and a private bathroom too. It all looked rather nice and comfortable “This will do nicely”
She nods, looking around until she looks back at him in his Asgardian armor, groaning a little “I’m so stupid.”
Loki tilted his head as he noticed the look on her face. There was a look a realization. “You look like you realized something. What’s that?”
“I forgot you don’t have any clothes...or anything.”
“Don’t worry about that.” Loki says, a hint of sincerity in his tone.
“You still need clothes to live here, and product and everything. You can’t possibly be comfortable in that.” She points at his leather clothes.
Loki huffed “Well I suppose you’re right. Do I have to go out? Or can I just order things to be brought in?”
Y/N was already typing in her phone “No need to, I’ll ask someone to go buy it...Any color preferences?”
He thought about it for a moment. He had always been a fan of the color green. It had become almost his signature color. “Green. My favorite color is green. Also some dark colors. And no leather.”
“Why not?” She smirks “You're using a leather armor.”
Loki chuckled at that “Exactly, it’s a armor. Is not really comfortable as clothes.”
“Okay. Dark colors, no leather.” she keeps typing “T-shirts, jeans, jumpsuits...suit, shoes...shocks...boxers?” At this last one she looks at him to confirm.
Loki raises a brow slightly as he listens to her list off what he needed. All of it sounded fine to him. “Boxer briefs will be fine, yes”
“Okay, I sent the list. Probably will be here in a few hours.” Y/N says, looking back at him.
He nodded in response and turned and looked around the room he’d be occupying I suppose I have time to just lounge around here until they get here then.” Loki looked away from the room and back at over her “I do quite like the room actually. And the whole floor really.
“Thanks.” She smiles.
He smiled back at her for a second “What now?”
Y/N looked at the time, noticing it was almost dinner time and she was already hungry “What do you like to eat?”
Loki raised a brow slightly, not quite sure why she was asking this. Nevertheless, he answered the question “I eat mostly anything. Why do you ask?”
“I was just wondering if you have any preferences.”
He shook his head. He didn’t really have any preferences when it came to food. He chuckled a bit before speaking again “Well, I suppose there is one food I do have a strong disliking for”
“Let me guess, prison food?” She chuckles.
Loki chuckled softly at that, his mind going to the food he’d been fed while in that cell. It had been absolutely revolting “Yes. Prison food is terrible.”
Y/N laughs a little at this. “I’m guessing Asgard doesn’t have pizza...?”
Loki raised a brow, looking at her a bit confused. He’d never heard that word before in his life “What in the nine realms is pizza?”
“Just the best food you’ll ever eat. I’ll order for us tonight.” Y/N says excitedly.
He chuckled slightly in response to her excitement, but mainly due to the fact he still had no idea what it was. Nevertheless, he nodded he head “I suppose I can try this pizza you speak of.”
She smiles, getting her phone and ordering the pizza “You’re gonna love it.”
“We shall see.” Loki chuckles again.
“I’ll go finish doing my...stuff. In the meantime, feel free to do whatever you want. There’re books, a TV in your room and one in the living room too...”
Loki nodded in response to her telling him to do as he pleases “TV?”
She noticed the confused look on his face “You don’t have television in Asgard?” He shook his head, still confused as he looks at the TV on the wall for a second, trying to figure out what it does. “Okay. Here.” She got the remote and started to explain to him what it was and how it worked, how he could watch movies and shows, and everything. She even taught him how to use Netflix.
He listened intently to everything she said, trying to understand what the hell it all ment. After a few minutes he spoke again “So you can just watch movies and shows on here all day?” Y/N nods at him. Loki looked back up at the TV on the wall, imagining himself just lounging in the bed watching whatever movie or show he wanted, anytime he wanted “I could get used to that.”
“I think you will also need a phone, I’ll ask to my- uh, Tony, to get one for you.” Y/N says.
Loki raised a brow, confused again “A phone? What in the nine realms is a phone?”
Y/N showed him her phone, and briefly explained what it was. “I’ll teach you later how to use it when I get you one.”
He nodded after she was done, looking at her “I see. So, I’ll be getting one of these as well then?”
She nods “I’ll go meet the team, feel free here...” she smiles “and if you need me, you just have to say it to JARVIS, the AI, and he’ll let me know.”
“Alright. I’ll call if I need you” He nodded his acknowledgment to what she said
“I already ordered the pizza, it must be here in an hour or so.” She says.
“Alright. Have fun with the others in the meantime”
“You too. I mean, have fun here.” Y/N smiles before she left him.
After more or less of an hour, Y/N got back to her floor and went to his room. She found him on his new bed, with a book in hand. When he heard the door open, he glanced up from the book and at her “You’re back”
She entered his new bedroom with a lot of bags in her hands “I am. And here are your new everything.”
Loki marked where he was currently at in the book and set it to the side as he sat up. He looked at all the bags that she had come in with, his interest peaked at how much there was “All that just for clothes?”
She chuckles softly. Probably a prince of Asgard had never gone shopping in his life “Clothes, shoes, undergarments, hygiene products...everything is here.”
He was a little surprise at the sheer amount of stuff she had brought in. He watched as she set the bags down “I didn’t realize I needed so much stuff.”
“And this.” She handles him a cellphone.
Loki took the phone from her. He studied it, looking at it up and down. He’d never held one of these before “And what am I supposed to do with this?”
“I’ll teach you.” She sat by his side on the bed and turned the phone on. There was a cat picture on it.
“Interesting choice of a lock screen picture” Loki raised a brow as he looked at the lock screen.
“You can change it.”
Loki chuckled a bit. He looked back down at the phone, his finger tapping around on the screen, trying to figure out how to change the lock screen “Alright. How do I do that?”
Y/N then explained and teached him how to use a cellphone, how to make calls and how to text and use emojis. Her contact was already saved as “Y/N S.” Loki listened very carefully to the explanation of how to use the phone. His fingers tapping and moving around the screen as he followed along, exploring the apps and what they did.
“Okay. Any doubts?”
He hummed, thinking for a moment before speaking “No. I think I’ve got the basics of this down now...But what about that pizza you said you ordered?”
“It must be arriving.” She says.
Loki nodded when she said it would be here soon. He set the phone down, his mind going back to all the clothes she had brought in earlier “Oh and…where am I suppose to put all of that?”
“In your...closet?” Y/N was holding a chuckle, like it was so obvious.
Loki mentally face palmed himself. That much should have been obvious. He had completely forgotten about the dresser that was in the room. He chuckled softly “Right. Of course.”
“You should try them. See if everything fits.”
He paused a moment as considered it. It would probably be a good idea to find out now if these clothes were too big or not after all “Fine. I guess I’ll try some of it on”
“I’ll call you when the pizza’s here.” She says before leaving him alone to try the clothes.
After almost 15 minutes, Y/N called him from the kitchen “Loki!! Pizza’s here!”
Loki was still looking around the mirror at himself when he heard her call his name and call that the pizza had arrived. He had found that they were pretty good fits so far. “Coming!”
“Ready to try the best thing you’ll ever taste?” She says as she offers him a slice.
Loki took the slice, still smiling as he held the pizza in his hand. He looked at it for a moment before bringing it up to his mouth. He took a bite and let the flavors and texture swirl in his mouth for a moment as he chewed. Once he had swallow that bite, his mind started processing the taste. It was actually quite good. Not at all what he was expecting. He looked to her, a smile back on his face “Well, I suppose this pizza actually is quite good”
“Oh, come on. You can say it’s your favorite food from now on.” She smiles back at him.
As they both continued to eat the pizza, Loki started thinking. He was enjoying this, the pizza and company both. The casualness of it all. It was nice. He took another bite before breaking the silence “Is this what it’s like for you all the time? Being able to eat pizza and chat and laugh like this?”
“Mostly, yeah.” She nods.
Loki hummed as he took another bite out the pizza. He swallowed, his mind still working as his gaze fell on her. He was just so curious about it all, this regular normal life. “This casualness. This normal day to day life…it’s so different to what we do and deal with all the time”
“What was it like on Asgard?”
Loki thought for a moment, trying to think how exactly to describe life in Asgard to a Midgardian “Not casual like this. There were no pizza for one. Life was much more formal. Always some kind of event happening or some sort of thing that we had to attend to”
“Well, if you live with Tony, you always have some party invitation. He’s quite...popular around here.” Y/N chuckles.
He chuckled at that “I suppose that’s unavoidable when you live with Stark”
After a few more minutes of silence, Y/N spoke. “You know, for what they said, I was imagining your different.”
Loki raised an eyebrow at that “Different how?”
“More arrogant and difficult to deal. But you’re actually quite...nice.”
Loki hummed in response. “Maybe I’m just being nice out of politeness? Who’s to say I’m not actually like my past reputation?”
“Hmm...maybe.”
“You’ve known me barely a day and have already made such definitive statements on my personality hm?” He says with a small smirk on his lips.
Y/N chuckles “I’m good at seeing through people...I’m gonna sleep, I have to wake up early. Try not to destroy my floor. Good night...”
He nodded slightly in response to her good night. He watched her as she walked away and then returned to his slice of pizza. Chewing it, his thoughts again going down the rabbit hole of everything that had happened in the last 24 hours.
Loki really started to grow quite close to Y/N over the months that passed as he was living with her. He quickly realized that he had grown quite affectionate for her, feelings of care and protective coming over him every time he saw her. Y/N had offered to him to take off the bracelet, but he still refused all the time. In this time, never left her floor and had little encounters with the others, mostly Thor and Tony. And he hated Tony.
“Pizza’s here!!” Y/N called from her kitchen.
Loki's ears perked up at the call. He had been in the living room, watching a movie, but as soon as she called out to him, he snapped himself out of it and got up. Making his way into the kitchen "That was fast.”
“Right?” She chuckles. He moved up to the counter, his gaze drifting over to her a moment before he picked up a slice and Y/N did the same. “You know...I just realized you never told me when it’s your birthday.”
“You never told me your last name either.” He says with a smirk as he eats the pizza.
“Touché.”
"So it's a tie" Loki chuckled, finding her response to be quite amusing.
Y/N nods at him. Her phone buzzed and she already knew what it was. It was friday night, which means movie night for the team. Loki never wanted to go and that means she didn’t go either, because she didn’t want to leave him alone. Still, they always texted her to invite. As Y/N checked her phone, Loki's ears perked up at the sound of it, curious as to what the message was. "Everything alright over there?"
“Yeah...Nat’s asking if were going to watch the movie with them...”
Loki found the others to be tiring, and the thought of sitting through a whole movie with them was almost unbearable "And are you going?"
“Are you?” She looks at him.
"No. I don't want to go to movie night"
“So neither am I.” Y/N texted Nat before speaking again “You can’t avoid the team forever.”
He leaned back against the counter, still holding a half eaten slice of pizza in his hands as he looked to her "I know… it's just that Stark…”
“You really don’t like him, huh?” She chuckles.
If Loki was being honest, Stark was possibly the single person he disliked the most "That man…I can hardly stand him. Everything about him annoys me. I don’t understand how you deal with him every day.”
“My relationship with him is different...” Loki barely opened his mouth to say something, and she already cut him “and no, he’s not into me and no, I won’t explain.”
Loki couldn't help but roll his eyes "I know you told me you won't explain. But it's strange. Especially with how annoying he is in general.”
“Believe me, I know how annoying he can get sometimes.” She smiles a little.
Loki's almost constant frown was replaced by a soft smile when she smiled. She was the only thing that could almost always get him to smile "Then how on earth do you handle him?"
“Let’s just say I know him for a looong time.”
He nodded slightly at her answer "That's fair. You still have my respect for being able to tolerate him for so long"
Y/N looks at Loki for a few seconds... “You really hate him...”
Loki's face and voice expressed how annoyed he was by the mention of Stark. "I absolutely HATE that man. He truly is the most self-centered, cocky and arrogant person I've ever met. I bet his whole family is like that.”
“Aren’t you exaggerating a little?” Y/N says. This would certenly complicate things between them.
To him he was not exaggerating at all, and this was shown on his face "No. I am 100% serious. That man is insufferable, annoying, and cocky."
“I mean what you said about his family.”
Loki hummed, his expression still one of annoyance and dislike towards Stark "His whole family is bound to be like that. Look at Stark, his arrogance and cockiness, it must run in the family.” There was a pause for a moment, but he started speaking again, his tone going from mockingly confident to curious "Speaking of families… what's yours like? You haven’t told me about them.”
“I have an older brother...” She speaks.
Loki hummed, his head tilting slightly as his eyes stayed on her. He took another bite of the pizza slice he was holding "An older brother? What’s he like?"
Y/N nods “Yeah...he always took care of me, especially after our parents die. I know he would do anything for me. He’s smart, caring…he always put me first, even if sometimes he’s a little overprotective.”
A small part of Loki got a pang in his chest when she mentioned her parents being dead “Your brother sounds like a good guy. I’m sure I’d like him more than Stark.” Y/N just looks at him, not knowing what to say. He noticed how she seemed to pause after that last comment "You haven't told me his name, your brother's that is"
She took a deep breath before answering “It’s...Anthony.”
Loki couldn't help but chuckle softly at the coincidence "Are you joking? Your brother's name is Anthony?" Y/N just nodded. Loki had to hold back laughing as he processed the knowledge. The irony was almost too much to bear, but he was able to hold it in. His smirk growing as his voice came out, mocking and cheeky “How strange. That’s the name of our beloved friend Ironman...” She nodded again.
He smirked again, thoroughly amused by this information "Your brother shares a name with that egotistical, arrogant, loudmouth… oh that is just…ironic, and hysterical.” Y/N just looked at him. He sure has realized...right?
Loki chuckled, enjoying the irony and coincidence of her brother "Your brother seems like a much more decent fellow than Stark...”
Y/N was still silent, just looking at him as she realizes he didn’t get it “Huh...Loki?”
Looking at her, his gaze softened slightly “Yes?”
“You didn’t get it, do you?” She says carefully.
Loki looked at her for a moment, noticing the look on her face. He had been rather distracted that he had completely missed something that was rather obvious. He thought for a moment before his eyes widened and he suddenly realized “You’re kidding, right? Right?” His expression was one of absolute disbelief as it sank in “No. No, you’re joking. You have to be joking right now. Tell me you’re joking.”
“I’m not...”
There was a pause where Loki felt almost as though the room was spinning. He was trying to process this information, that his...friend, was sister of the man he hated the most, his mind in complete disbelief. He just stared at her, a dumbfounded look on his face. Eventually he managed to get words out “You mean to tell me, that your brother…the brother you were just talking about…is Tony Stark?” Loki wasn’t sure at this point whether he wanted to laugh, cry, or pull his hair out and scream “Oh this is…this is just brilliant…no…brilliant actually doesn’t even begin to describe this…this is…this is unbelievable”
Y/N was confused. Sure, Loki hated her brother, but...why was he overreacting that way? “I think I lost something here...what’s the problem? Besides you not liking him?”
Loki grumbled in irritation, trying to formulate his thoughts. He pushed back from the counter, turning to face her fully “The problem? Well, how about the fact that the man I hate is your brother. That definitely complicates the fact that I consider you my closest and favorite Midgardian”
“So being his sister make us not friends anymore? Is that it?”
He crossed his arms and let out an annoyed huff “That’s not the point. I’m not saying we’re not friends anymore…it just complicates things. It changes things… because you have a relation to him. I have very mixed feelings about this new information.”
“You know what, I’ll leave you to think about it then since it’s so awful.” Y/N turned her back to him, walking to the elevator.
He watched her walk towards the elevator, a pang in his chest as she got in and the doors closed. He was left alone in the kitchen now, still in disbelief at everything that just happened. Y/N decided to spend the night with the team, watching the movie Clint chose. They were happy that finally she was back with them. But of course, she didn’t tell anyone what happened.
While she was with the team, Loki stayed in her apartment. He just sat on the couch, still in disbelief and thought. He was tempted to ask JARVIS where she was, but he didn’t want to seem needy. Ater the movie ended, she left them saying she was a little tired and went back to her floor. Loki was still sat on the couch when she came back. He heard the elevator ding and his head shot up. He sat up a little straighter as the door to the elevator opened. For a second, he just looked at her, unsure what to do or say.
Y/N didn’t say anything. In fact, she didn’t even look at him as she walks past him on the couch and went straight to her room. Loki watched silently as she walked past, his stomach twisting itself into knots. He had never wanted to speak more than he did right now, but for once he was speechless. Watching her walk to her room, he waited for a second before deciding to follow her.
He stood up, walking swiftly towards her room. He almost hesitated when he reached her doorway, he stood there for a moment as his mind went through what he wanted to say before he spoke in a soft and somewhat quiet voice “Y/N…”
“What?” She replied without even looking at him.
Loki entered the room slowly, a part of him feeling almost nervous “Can I talk to you for a moment?”
Y/N kept her back to him as she was taking her necklace off “About what? That we can’t be friends anymore? That you can’t stand me because of my brother?’
His heart practically shattered upon hearing her speak like that. He hated how she thought that. He shook his head softly, his voice quiet and sincere “That’s not it. I never stopped being your friend, and I never will. And it doesn’t matter to me that Stark’s your brother, despite me despising him.”
This made her finally turn to look at him. Seeing her gaze shift to meet his made his heart twist a little again. He took a few steps forward, now fully in front of her. He let out a shaky breath before he continued to speak “You’re still my friend. You always will be. Nothing will change that.” He looked down slightly, a pang of guilt hitting him “I…I didn’t mean it earlies. Not really. I was just…I was just in shock when I realized you were Stark’s sister. That’s all”
He dared to look back up at her, his heart going as soft as his gaze. He took a step forward and was now standing right in front of her, his voice quiet and soft as he continued to speak “You being his sister doesn’t change anything. You’re still my friend. My favorite and closest friend.”
Y/N sighs, her voice now gentler “I guess I should have expected that kind of reaction from you...”
A small pang of guilt hit him when he heard her say that “I…” he paused for a moment, biting his lip as he looked at her “I’m sorry. For how I reacted. I should’ve handled it better…but I was just a little…shocked”
“A little?” She chuckles.
Loki chuckled too, a slight smile coming to his face now. He held her hand delicately, his thumb gently stroking the top of her hand as they spoke “Maybe more than a little.”
They were looking at each other, holding hands, when JARVIS started to play a soft music and that made Y/N a little confused “JARVIS, stop.” But it didn’t.
Loki’s head snaps to look at the ceiling when the music started. A small smirk came upon his face as he looked up for a moment “JARVIS is quite the wingman”
Y/N shakes her head as the music kept playing.
I had a thought, dear
However scary
About that night
The bugs and the dirt
Why were you digging?
What did you bury
Before those hands pulled me
From the earth?
Loki couldn’t help feeling amused by JARVIS playing that particular song. He chuckled softly and looked at her, a smirk on his face “I wonder if JARVIS’S trying to hint at something…”
I will not ask you where you came from
I will not ask you, neither should you
Y/N rolls her eyes “I don’t think he’s trying to make a hint exactly.”
Loki chuckles again, still holding her hand, his slender and smooth fingers rubbing slow and gentle circles over the back of it “Then what would you call it?”
Honey just put your sweet lips on my lips
We should just kiss like real people do
“I call it being direct.” Y/N chuckles softly.
He chuckled under his breath again and smirked, his voice almost having a teasing tone to it as he spoke “I know one way to shut him up...” Before she can say another word, Loki does exactly what the music had suggested. In one quick movement he brought his free hand up to cup the side of her face. Within a blink, he had closed the small distance between them and connected his lips with hers.
Y/N closed her eyes, kissing him back. He moves his lips slowly, softly over hers, feeling pure bliss. His fingers against her cheek were gentle while his other hand still held hers delicately. Y/N’s hand cupped his face as they kissed, making Loki smile faintly against her lips while he felt her hands against his cheeks. He parted his lips very gently, his tongue slowly and delicately caressing hers. He moved his hand from her face, up to her hair and her hands moved to the back of his neck.
Loki let out a faint gasp, the action sent shivers down his spine. As he continued to kiss her, his tongue intertwined with hers and all his thoughts went out the window. The only thing that mattered to him in that moment was her. They kept kissing in a slow pace. Slow, soft, and gentle were exactly what Loki wanted. He was being gentle with her as always, yet there was a sense of passion and hunger in his kiss as well. He tilted his head and continued to kiss her for another moment, completely in bliss. After a moment he slowly pulled back, his breath coming out in a soft and shallow pant against her lips.
He leaned his forehead against hers, his eyes half-lidded and a light, almost drunken-like look in them. He was silent, his mind was still hazy from the kiss they just shared, leaving him speechless.
Y/N smiles a little before kissing him again. A small moan escaped Loki's lips and he kissed her back slowly. He moved one hand and placed it on her waist, pulling her closer against him and bringing her body flush against his. Loki smiled faintly against her lips as he felt her hands start to move down his shirt. His muscles tensed faintly underneath his shirt, the feeling of her hands sending a pleasant sensation through his body. Y/N slowly pulls up his shirt until she took it off his body. He stopped kissing her for a moment to allow her to pull the shirt over his head, leaving his upper body bare. His heart was thumping fast in his chest as he felt his body exposed, her hands against his bare skin. He took a second to adjust before he quickly returned to kissing her again. He tilted his head and re-connected their lips in a gentle kiss, his hands going to the hem of her shirt, tugging on it a little. Just like him, she broke the kiss shortly to help him to get rid of it.
He quickly pulled off her shirt as well, discarding it somewhere on the floor before returning his lips back to hers. He let out a small, quiet moan against her mouth as he felt their chests just barely touch.
Y/N’s hand went down his chest until it stopped at his belt, slowly undoing it. A soft, shaky breath escaped his mouth as his hips subconsciously bucked forwards a little as she started to undo his belt, making her smirks into the kiss. He was practically aching for her to touch him without the obstruction of clothes in the way. She slowly opens his pants, pushing it down, and Loki let out a quiet gasp. He was wearing thin, black boxer briefs, which didn’t leave much up to the imagination.
Loki moved his lips from hers and started kissing slowly down her neck. His hand once again went to her hair, gently pushing it to the side to allow himself more access to her skin. He moved his lips to a sensitive spot on her neck and gently started sucking and biting on it and that made Y/N let out a soft moan.
He smiled faintly against her neck, the sound of her moan was making him feel drunk. Loki continued to gently kiss down her neck until his hands started working on her pants too and slowly push them down. He pulled her even closer to him, his hands roaming up and down her body, touching her anywhere he could reach.
Their joined their lips again, the kiss was slower now, but hungrier than before. The feeling of their underwear-clad bodies pressed up against one another was already driving him crazy with desire to be even closer to her. One of his hands started to move up her back, unclasping her bra and gently moving the strap of the bra off her shoulder until her upper body was more exposed.
Loki broke the kiss for a moment, panting faint against her lips as he took the sight of her in. He stared, taking in every bit of her exposed skin, his mind practically blank, completely focused on her as he brought his hand up to her breast, gently but firmly cupping it with his hand, his thumb gently caressing it. That made her let out a small gasp, and it only made Loki want to hear more of it. He started to massage her slowly, his touch gentle against her sensitive skin, and his lips returning to her neck, gently kissing it.
Y/N let her hand goes down to his boxers, slowly rubbing his bulge. A quiet moan escaped his mouth as he felt her touch, his boxer briefs now definitely more tight than they were earlier. He let out a deep, shaky breath, trying his hardest to hold back any louder sounds.
She slowly pushed his underwear down. Loki shifted his legs to allow them to be easier to remove, the black piece of fabric soon being pooled with his pants on the floor left him completely on display for her. With his boxer briefs gone, he pressed his body against hers again. With his lower body pushed up against hers, he gasped again as he felt her against his sensitive member now. He began kissing down her neck again, his hands slowly moving to her hips and started to push down her panties. He was desperate to feel more of her skin against his, completely wanting all barriers between them to be gone.
Loki slowly pulled down her panties, leaving them both bare against each other. He didn’t hesitate to bring her even closer to him. The press of her bare body against his sent a wave of pleasure down his spine, leaving all coherent thought lost in his mind. All that he could think about in that moment was her. Loki let out a shaky breath as he felt himself rubbing against her wet folds. His thoughts were a mixture of pure lust and want, mixed in with a strange sense of love. He continued to kiss her slowly, his hands gently caressing the bare skin of her back.
Y/N broke the kiss, grabbing his hand and slowly leading them to her bed. She laid down first. Loki followed her and hovered above her for a moment, taking a slow, shaky breath before speaking again “You’re so beautiful…so perfect…”
“So are you...” She says almost in a whisper.
He slowly closed the small distance between them until their bodies were pressed together again, gently caressing her side and moved his head down and started kissing her neck again. His lips went further down until he gently started kissing her collarbone while his hand slowly started to travel further down her body. Another moan escaped her lips while she helped him fit better between her legs.
Loki started to kiss down her chest, moving his lips to her breast and then to her nipple and gently started sucking on it while his hand continued to roam down her body, trying to touch her as much as possible. Y/N moaned again. After a moment, his mouth started to move over to her other breast and started giving it the same treatment. The sounds she made went straight to his ear and almost set him on fire, the hunger for her growing with every sound escaping her mouth.
His lips were on a mission to continue kissing every single part of her skin, his tongue sometimes darting out to taste her. While his mouth started moving down her chest and towards her stomach, his fingers gently started to caress her inner thighs. His mouth continued to move down her stomach until he was in between her legs. There, he slowly started to kiss her just above her clit, his hands gripping her thighs very gently to keep her legs apart. Loki slowly started to move his tongue across her wet folds and her clit, trying to be careful and not to overstimulate her. The taste of her sent a shiver down his spine and he let out a shaky breath, having to keep himself from pressing his own hips against the sheets to get some kind of release. Each time he moved his tongue on her, she moaned.
The sound of her moan was heavenly to Loki. His tongue continued licking her and his hands stayed gripping her thighs to keep her legs open. His own hips were pushing against the bed as his member was throbbing and begging for more, desperate for some friction. He let out a soft, almost drunken sounding moan, his voice vibrating against her core.
Y/N’s moans started to get a little louder, especially when he slowly pushed one slender finger into her. Loki watched as she closed her eyes and could feel her tightening around his finger. He carefully pushed another slender and long finger into her, wanting to give her as much pleasure as he could.
He knew she was getting close by her moans and the way she was responding to his every movement. He felt her tighten around his fingers and a few moments later, she came. She pulled him back to her, kissing him again.
Loki smiled faintly against her lips, returning her kiss immediately. His body was on top of hers, his hips in between her legs, pressing up against her but being careful to not actually push into her yet. As he continued to kiss her, he slowly started to move his hips against hers until he could feel his cock rubbing up against her, the feeling immediately making him gasp against her mouth. He broke the kiss for a moment to speak “Y/N...” His voice was a little shaky, the feeling of being that close to her yet not being inside her was almost driving him mad with need.
“Yes...please...” Her voice was full of lust and desire, and she wanted nothing more than him inside of her.
The sound of her asking him to continue made him feel almost dizzy with desire for her. He slowly lifted one of her legs a little more up and used his free hand to line the tip of his member up with her before slowly, and carefully pushing inside, making her moan.
Hearing her moan as he pushed inside her slowly made him gasp, his mouth next to her ear. She nods at him for him to move. He slowly started to move his hips, being careful to be gentle and not go too fast or hard. His own breath was coming out a little in soft pants next to her ear, but he tried his best to keep them as controlled as possible to not be too loud and he kissed her again.
The kiss was a lot sloppier than before, both of them breathing heavily against each other’s mouths as he kept moving. He moved his tongue into her mouth and tangled it with hers, desperate for as much physical contact possible. He picked up the pace slightly, the feeling of being inside her making his thoughts foggy. Y/N moans into the kiss while he kept moving in and out of her.
The sound of her moans gave him all the motivation he needed to keep moving. His hips started to move a little faster, but still trying his best to be careful and not to move too forcefully or hard. He broke the kiss and instead started to slowly kiss and suck on her neck. She wrapped both her legs around his waist. He groaned quietly against her skin as he felt her legs wrap around his waist, practically forcing him to go a bit deeper. He let his head rest against her shoulder as he continued to move, the pleasure growing more intense by the moment.
The new angle made Loki hit just the right spot. When he hit the right spot, he heard her gasp and felt her getting tighter around him, so he repeated the same movement again, the feeling making him bite down on the skin of her shoulder to try and muffle the moan from escaping him.
He slowly picked up the pace again, now moving a bit faster. At this new rhythm and position, a few more thrusts of his hips and Y/N orgasmed again. He let out a shaky breath as he felt her climax around him again, her legs tightening around him and his name leaving her mouth like heaven. The feeling was sending him over the edge, it was too much, he couldn’t hold back anymore. Without stopping he let himself go, a deep, quiet moan escaping his mouth as he came inside of her.
His hips continued to move but much slower, riding out the last bits of pleasure. He slowly came down from his high, his body coming to a slow still as he tried to catch his breath. He slowly picked his head up from her shoulder to look at her. Her face was a little flushed from the pleasure and he smiled faintly at the sight. After a moment of catching his breath, he gently leaned down and kissed her forehead, a gesture that almost felt a little tender.
Loki laid down next to her, gently pulling out of her and letting one of her legs still rest across his lower stomach as he laid down. He let his body rest a moment, still breathing a little heavily, before turning his head to look at her and spoke “That was...heavenly...”
Y/N nods, agreeing but still weak from everything. She laid her head on his chest and Loki gently draped his arm across her back, pulling her closer to him so their bodies were even closer together. They both laid there quietly for a moment, just enjoying the feeling of the other so close and listening to each other breathes.
He continued to hold her close, now gently caressing her back while he looked down at her. He was quiet for a moment, before he spoke “I didn’t plan on this happening when I came to your room, you know.”
She chuckles a little “I guess we have to thank JARVIS for this.”
“Indeed.” He chuckled faintly and continued to gently caress her back, letting his hand slide up and down her bare skin.
“Are we okay? About the whole thing of me being Tony’s sister?” She had to ask it.
Loki lifted his head up a little bit to look at her, a soft smile on his face “Yes, we are good. You being Tony’s sister isn’t going to change anything. I can promise you that. If Tony has a problem with what we do in the bedroom, he can always take that up with me.”
“Oh, so we’re doing more of this?” She smiled.
He raised an eyebrow at her question, that faint smile still on his face ‘Of course we’ll do more. You think I’m going to let you get away from me now, when I finally have you in my arms?”
Y/N chuckles a little “I guess I should tell you that unlike my brother, I don’t fool around.”
Loki lifts his other hand to gently brush her hair away from her face, his fingers tracing down her cheek. He still smiled at her faintly as he spoke “Don’t worry, I have no plans of just fooling around with you. That’s not my style either.” He held her close and gently resumed caressing her back. He was enjoying the feeling of her bare skin against his and how she was laying in his arms.
“What’s on your mind?”
He didn’t answer at first, his hand still gently stroking her back. After a moment of silence he spoke, his voice a little quieter than before “Your brother is not going to be happy if he finds out that we’re together, you know…”
“He won’t...”
Loki stayed silent again for a moment, before he spoke in a quiet, slightly mischievous tone “Just so you’re aware, I have absolutely no intention of being quiet and discreet with you.”
“Good.” Y/N smiles “Me nether. I don’t care about anything. I want you.”
He felt that strange and pleasant sensation fill his chest again, hearing her say that. He gently pulled her even closer to him, her body practically flush against his and his hand sliding down from her back to rest on her lower back, nearly above her ass. His fingers gently traced her skin, his other hand still gently caressing her hair “Then you’ll have me.”

Summary: You take Cloak’s advice.
A/N: Back to back chapters, baby! We finally start seeing some Loki love in this chapter. So so so cute. Hope you all enjoy!
If you need the previous chapter, you can read it here: Chapter III. Also, the series Masterlist.
Your heart monitor flatlined.
This was quickly followed by a “I told you guys” from the Captain. Everyone’s hearts sunk instantly, before a heart rate restarted on the monitor, steady and regular.
You woke up, your eyelids flickering open.
“Oh thank the gods” Loki spoke, rushing towards you immediately. He slid onto his knees, coming face to face with you. Reaching out his palm, he cupped your cheek so it could rest in his hand. “Are you alright, Y/N?”
You nodded. Everything was still hazy, especially with the various stimuli around you.
“Hold on a minute, did he just defibrillate her?” Tony was one of the first to speak up.
“Certainly seems like it.” Natasha remarked.
Next to them, Steve had a relieved, but somewhat awkward and jealous mood. He tried to hide his scowl as Loki held his hand out to hold your head. He wanted it to be him, instead.
He never wished to have magic. He was a super soldier. But now, now he did. Hastily, he rushed to your opposite side. “Y/N, we’re so glad you’re okay.” His eyes softened, gazing into your beautiful eyes. He was glad you were okay, and he did manage to shove down his negative emotions.
“I’m glad too, Steve.” Loki’s chest grumbled in annoyance as the Captain’s name fell from your lips. He stopped himself from any physical manifestations of this, though he was tempted to roll his eyes.
His hand was still the one holding the delicacy that was your cheekbone, and every once and a while, you stole a quick glance at him and blushed when he continued his pressing stare on you.
Not to mention, he was the one who healed you. Not Rogers.
“Sorry, I’m really fuzzy right now.” You apologized, with both of the men shaking their heads at your statement. “No need for apologies, Y/N. You were out for quite a while.” Steve beat Loki to be the first to speak.
Loki spoke next. “It’s quite understandable, darling. Do you remember what happened?”
You shook your head. “I remember going to see Thor, but not much after that.”
“It’s okay, angel. If you’d like, we can talk more about it later.” The new pet name that Loki exhibited made your heart flutter, but in the meantime, Steve’s blood boiled. “You need rest.” You nodded, dozing off slightly. “I’ll be here if you need anything.”
Steve elected to leave with the other Avengers, barely standing to see the god oodling over you. He needed to go to the gym. Get his anger out. Punch a few things. Imagine they were Loki’s face. He wanted to be able to make you happy.
He regretted not acting on his feelings earlier. Before he arrived.
Loki maneuvered a recliner that was sitting in the room closer to your bed, so that he was able to sit in close proximity to you.
He pulled out a novel, which allowed him his own entertainment while you rested. It wasn’t until you started whimpering in your sleep that he became worried.
〰// ▬ʃ════▻ ⋆༺𓆩⚔️𓆪༻⋆ ◅════ʅ▬ \\〰
“Y/N!” You heard Loki shout from across the battlefield. It was a desperate attempt to catch your attention.
You shot out one of your daggers, in order to locate him. It caused you to levitate off of the street, which was littered thoroughly with rubble, bodies, and destroyed vehicles. Glass was covering the concrete.
You surged with power, heading towards Loki’s location.
“Loki!” You yelled. You touched his body, put your hand over his chest, hoping that your dagger reached fast enough to surge the life force into him. You didn’t feel his heartbeat. No pulse.
You were too late.
Loki was dead.
You cried over his dead body, tears steadily streaming down your cheeks, some of them landing on Loki’s. His eyes were glassed over, his skin losing its color completely.
〰// ▬ʃ════▻ ⋆༺𓆩⚔️𓆪༻⋆ ◅════ʅ▬ \\〰
You were woken up by Loki, who was gently shaking your arms. “Darling?” You peeled open your eyes, pupils immediately dilating to take in more of the scene around you. “Loki?”
“Hey, love. What’s going on?” His voice was soft, gentle, and reassuring. His hands had yet to leave your arms, fingertips lightly molded to your skin.
“Just a really bad nightmare.” You shuttered, leaning into his grasp.
“You were screaming my name. Not in a good way.” He winked, trying to make light of the situation. He caused a smile to flicker across your lips, as you beckoned him forward to place your head on his chest.
Good god this feels lovely, Loki thought.
“I had a nightmare that you died-d. Th-that it was my f-fault.” Your vision began to blur as your eyes became teary.
“Love, it’s okay. I promise. I’m willing to bet that any cause of my death was based on my own idiocies. Plus, hasn’t my brother told you? I’ve faked my death a multitude of times, darling. I’m right here.” He took your hand, placing it upon his chest.
You felt his heartbeat on your fingertips.
You knew he was safe.
“Loki?”
“Yes, darling?”
“Could you- could you just hold me?”
You couldn’t see the bright smile that plastered across the god’s face as you finished your question. “Of course, my dear.”
You slid down the side of the bed, your feet landing on the cold floor. You allowed Loki to slide onto your bed, his tall, godly form looked slightly awkward, but he was more comfortable than he had been in the chair or the sofa.
In your hospital gown, you plopped yourself down on his lap. Careful to avoid any - well - man parts. You nuzzled into his chest, then quickly looked up at him. “So- what exactly did I do?”
“You were very determined to heal Thor, love. So much so, that you drained that beautiful magic of yours. I proposition you now, that if you ever need to heal someone from injuries that we both caused, please, please come get me. As we now know, you cannot do this on your own.” Loki’s words were soft yet stern, and you knew that the god meant business.
“Yes sir.” You joked, although a glimmer of darkness flashed in Loki’s eyes. You quickly changed the subject. “We really need to figure out how our powers compliment each other.”
“I absolutely agree, darling Dagger. The continuation of our morning training lessons should certainly contribute to that. Perhaps we could go privately in the evening, too, if you so desire.” Loki started.
“However, if we can do anything like we did when we partially destroyed my brother during our first training session, I’d say we’ll do pretty well.” He continued. You nodded in agreement.
“Doesn’t that partially - scare you? I mean…”
“Of course, darling. Who wouldn’t be? I mean, I’m more accustomed to magic than you are, I have had it for over a thousand years. Even then, I’ve never had an experience such as this. I can’t imagine the way you must feel.”
You smiled with his words. The God of Mischief was - surprisingly sweet.
“I guess I’m just really freaked out. After what happened to Cloak I just…”
“Shhh. No need for explanations. You’re mourning. You also probably never thought it possible to have such a magical connection with someone again. It’s understandable.”
“I - um - I really appreciate that validity.”
“Of course, no problem at all, love.”
“What novel were you reading?”
“I primarily read plays, some Shakespeare, and other writers of that time. Some Norse Mythology here and there.”
“Oh yeah, what’s there to know?”
“There’s actually quite a few inconsistencies.” He chuckled at your question.
“As there is with anything, I suppose. Nothing about the God of Mischief’s magical mortal connection from Midgard?” You giggled.
“There is not.”
“Aw shucks, we could’ve used that.”
“That we could’ve dearest, that we could’ve.”
“Would you read some to me?”
“Of course, just hand me my book, darling.” You reached across your bed towards the nightstand that Loki’s book was resting on. It was in a pyramid position, indicative of him quickly moving it to the table when you were amidst your nightmare.
“Flower of this purple dye,
Hit with Cupid's archery,
Sink in apple of his eye.
When his love he doth espy,
Let her shine as gloriously
As the Venus of the sky…”
With that, you managed to sleep nightmare-free in Loki’s arms.
〰// ▬ʃ════▻ ⋆༺𓆩⚔️𓆪༻⋆ ◅════ʅ▬ \\〰
After a couple hours, you awoke from the best sleep you had had in months. You turned to greet Loki, who had fallen asleep himself whilst holding you. The Shakespearean book of plays sat next to him, while his arms were eagerly snaked around you.
Tony had notified the doctors of your change in status, but they had yet to come by to talk with you. You had been sleeping a lot, presumably to replenish your life energy.
You realize that it had been a while since you had gone to the bathroom, and the need to void hit you like a bus. You pressed Loki into letting you go, although it was a struggle. Initially his arms around you tightened even further, but you were able to coax him in the other direction.
The doctor came in to speak with you as soon as you exited the bathroom. “Y/N, you are much more stable, I see.”
“Yeah, I’m feeling loads better.” You spoke.
“That being said, we all feel comfortable discharging you back to your living quarters in the tower. Given that the primary need for your stabilization was due to your drained life force.”
“Right.”
“But, if anything is to occur, or if you start feeling dizzy or woozy, just come back down.”
“Absolutely. Understood. Thank you.”
The nurse came by to run through discharge paperwork with you, and soon, you were clear to leave. Loki woke up a few minutes after you left his arms, stunned by the lack of your presence.
“Hey, Loki. I get to go back to my room now. Doctors say I’m stable. Gotta get up.”
“Five minutes?” He reached out towards you, beckoning you to him. “No no, come on.”
He sighed in defeat, grabbing the copy of his book and placing his feet on the floor before hoisting himself upward to a standing position. “Do you need help with anything?”
“I don’t think so, I didn’t bring much down here.” You laughed slightly.
〰// ▬ʃ════▻ ⋆༺𓆩⚔️𓆪༻⋆ ◅════ʅ▬ \\〰
You retreated back to your room after greeting the Avengers, who ensured that you were doing alright. Steve stole a hug from you, which was pleasant.
You couldn’t help but compare it to Loki’s arms holding you.
You bid Loki adieu, and let him return to his own quarters. “Goodnight, love.” He had secretly hoped that you would return to his room with him, but alas. You had opened up to him today, and he was going to take that as a win.
It took a while for your body to accept sleep. And when it did, nightmares flooded your mind. You woke up with a jolt out of bed. Fuck. You thought. Why was Loki dying all the time now?
Was he okay?
You checked the time.
1:37. Not terrible.
You exited your room, hoping that you’d be able to catch Loki still awake. You headed down the hallway, towards the god’s quarters.
