You woke up to an empty bed again. You stretched your arms and smiled remembering last night’s events. You felt like a huge burden had been taken off of your shoulders and now you could finally breathe.
The first night you slept with Loki, it was cold and loveless, you were both seeking pleasure and you were also drunk. But last night was a pure expression of love and adoration. He worshipped you and your body like a goddess, exploring every inch of skin with his lips, leaving kisses and marks everywhere. You learned all his weak spots and what drove him wild, spending as much time as you could caressing and loving his body.
You really thought sex was going to be weird since he was your best friend and he knew so much about you, but you were wrong.
“Are you finally going nuts?” Loki asked you from the door staring at you in awe since you were giggling alone. You sat down to look at him wrapping the duvet around your naked body. He was wearing a pair of pajama pants that hung loosely on his hips, his torso naked exposing all his muscles. He was carrying a tray with two cups of coffee and breakfast.
“Thinking of you makes me go nuts.” You answered him shooting after a huge sweet smile when he approached the bed. He left the tray next to you and leaned in to give your lips a small peck.
“Loki, stop thinking so loud and ask me whatever you want to know.” Your breakfast was almost finished when you realized something was off, Loki was usually the one that did all the talking in the mornings. He swallowed the strawberry he was chewing and cleared his throat nervously.
“I was thinking that maybe we could... I mean...If you want to...we could go together to tonight’s party?” You set aside your cup of coffee and stared at him frowning in confusion. You thought it was obvious since you already lived together and you both were going to the same party at Shay’s house, unless his question meant something deeper.
“Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?” You knew you sounded way too amused but seeing Loki all nervous and trying to be cute as fuck made you weak.
“Maybe?” You giggled and kissed him, sensing his body instantly relax when your skin touched his. You pulled away and smiled at him.
“Oh my god, I just remembered I have something for you!” You stood up and ran to your room, trying to remember where you placed the small box. Once you had it you ran back to Loki’s room and jumped on the bed, sitting down in front of a startled and confused Loki.
“Remember you asked me to buy for you a bow tie? Well, I did.” You handed him the small box and stared at him with a wide smile, waiting for his reaction. Loki took the little piece carefully, looking at every single detail in it. He looked up at you and smiled.
“I love it! It’s so original, thank you very much.” It was a black bow tie with little constellations in white and it perfectly matched your dress, that’s why you bought it, even though you were just friends when you did. Deep down, you knew you were going together to that party.
“You know what’s the best of it?” Loki shook his head and waited for you to answer.
“It matches my dress.”

When Loki saw you in your dress he thought that the statement that he was in love was not accurate enough. You were fixing your hair in the bathroom so you totally missed the look in his face and the silent tears that fell from his green eyes. He felt so overwhelmed by all the feelings he was experimenting all at once. He was always the second best for everyone but his mother, and when she died, he thought no one would ever love him as much as she did. Loki was totally wrong.
“Do you think this is going to work out?” You stopped dead in your tracks, ignoring the freezing air of the winter night. You stood in front of him and pressed your hand to his chest.
“If you don’t want to go, we can always order takeout and have dinner at home.” Loki shook his head, feeling guilty because you didn’t get the question he was implicitly asking.
“I mean us. I don’t want to lose you, ever.” He looked at the hand you had pressed on his chest, trying to avoid your gaze. With your other hand, you cupped his cheek and made him look at you.
“We’ve been inseparable friends for two months, roommates for almost a year. You know me better than anyone and I know you just as well.” He leaned into your touch and let out a sigh. “We might be like fire and gasoline, but I would rather burn with you than walk away from this because I’m scared.”
“Are you scared?” Loki asked trying not to cry with your confession. He gulped and looked at you with glazed eyes, the fear permanent in his stare. You moved the hand from his face to his chest, so both of your hands were now resting there.
“Of course I am. But I’ve been afraid for too long, trying to fill my empty heart with sex and alcohol and the only thing that worked was you. I’m in love with you, every little part that makes you you. Besides, we haven’t fought since we became friends, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
“You might be right. I guess then we should burn tonight.” He smirked at you and you hit his chest playfully laughing alongside him.
After dinner, you were chatting lively with Bucky about the exhibition he was preparing while Shay and Loki were nowhere to be seen, probably talking about their stuff more privately.
“So, I can guess things with Loki went okay?” Bucky asked you, a wide grin telling you he already knew your answer. You threw at him a bashful smile, your cheeks burning in embarrassment.
“Yes, we finally admitted our feelings so I guess we are now together?” You shrugged and waited for his answer, but just when he was about to talk, Shay and Loki entered the room to make an announcement. Everyone fell silent and stared at them.
“As you all know...Buck come here” She gestured for Bucky to move besides her and so he did. “As I was saying, you all know we’ve been together for five years and I’m 1000% sure he is the love of my life, so…” Shay kneeled in front of Bucky and took out a small velvet box, grinning like a dork. “Would you marry me?”
Bucky lifted her from the floor in a hug and spun her around, her dress floating like a cloud. He kissed her with tears in his eyes and answered a million times yes. You were shedding a few happy tears for your friends and looked at Loki, who was staring at them crying as well. He looked at you and gestured you to go next to him, so you stood up confused and went to his side.
“You are not asking me to marry you, right?” You asked him in his ear jokingly, but just in case you wanted to let him know.
“You will see now.” Loki started clapping and congratulating the couple and the whole room did the same, all their friends cheering them and joking about the odd proposal. After their moment died down, Loki cleared his throat and held your hand, everyone’s attention now focused on you two. You were starting to panic, your hands sweating, not sure what was going on right now.
“Hello dear friends. I want to introduce you to Y/n, my not so newly found muse and the woman I am in love with.” Everyone gasped and Loki laughed. “By your reactions, I’m sure you all read my new book, so she is the one Sassa, the protagonist, is inspired in.” He kept talking about the book for a while and you quietly moved to your seat, overwhelmed by the fact that one of your favorite characters of all times was inspired by you. Now that you thought of it, you found the resemblances in the plot and in the main characters. Loki wrote about you and him even before you were a thing or even friends. That meant he had been in love with you a long while but instead of telling you, he wrote about it. You looked at him and felt a warmness fill your heart when you caught him staring at you already with a wide smile.
The television was broadcasting live the party at Rockefeller Center and when the clock struck midnight, you kissed Loki. All the sounds and voices around you disappearing until all you could feel was him.
