“Lady Y/N!” Thor’s voice boomed as he saw you in the kitchen.
Giggling you rushed over towards him, allowing him to pull you in for a bone crushing hug.
“I’ve missed you.” Thor muttered slightly into your ear, only allowing you to be able to hear him.
“I’ve missed you too.” You replied, grinning upwards at him, not bothering to unwrap your arms from each other.
Thor had become one of your best friends since you joined the team. It was unknown as to why the God took such a liking to you, but you never questioned it.
The sound of someone clearing their throat, pulled you both back to the kitchen.
“Lady Y/N, this is my brother.” He gestured to the tall raven haired man, glancing between you both with a skeptical expression. “My brother, Loki.” He finished in a hesitant voice.
Nodding your head, you offered Loki a smile, in which he scoffed.
Frowning you took a step back, realizing you were the only three in the kitchen, that the rest of the team must’ve left at some point during the exchange.
“I’ve heard so much about you.” You spoke, towards Loki.
“All bad things, I assume.” He spat. Loki muttered something to Thor, before he exited the kitchen leaving you alone with his brother.
“I apologize for my brother.” Thor frowned slightly, letting out a huff.
“It’s alright.” You giggled. “I didn’t expect a warm greeting from him.”
The rest of the day, you spent wandering around the tower in boredom. Finally, you passed the library for the umpteenth time that day, before settling to go in.
Walking in, you allowed your fingers to run along the spines of the books with each step you took, allowing you to let out a content sigh.
Finding one of your favorite books, you ventured to one of the many, tables before you settled into a comfortable position.
After awhile, you begun to feel the presence of someone else. Sighing, you knew exactly who it was. The person in question, took it upon himself to take the seat opposite of you.
Once he sat down, there was a silence that surrounded you, before he broke the silence.
“So, you and my brother?” He questioned nonchalantly.
“What about your brother and I?” You asked, lifting one of your eyebrows in confusion. Never once, lifting your eyes to meet his piercing ones.
“Aren’t you dating?”
With widened eyes, you quickly glanced over your book, to gauge his seriousness.
“Surely, you can’t be serious?” You almost shrieked. “Don’t get me wrong, I love Thor.” Your voice broke off. “But not in a romantic way.”
“You aren’t together?” He questioned, curiosity written across his features.
“No.” You breathed out.
He only hummed in response. Turning his attention back to his book, or so you thought.
“Surely, you must be dating the super soldier then.”
Letting out a frustrated huff, you closed your book, before placing it on the table.
“I’m not dating either super soldier.” You spat. Standing up abruptly, you began making your way towards the exit. Turning over your shoulder you glanced at him. “I’m not dating anyone, for the record.”
Making it halfway across the room, you felt a cool hand grasp your wrist, preventing you from going any further. A gasp fell from your lips, as you gauged his cold body temperature.
Turning towards him, he seemed to have an embarrassed expression. Releasing your wrist, his gaze fell to the ground in front of him.
“I...I didn’t mean to upset you.” He said, his voice laced in genuine apology.
Taking a deep breath, you sighed. “It’s alright.” You smiled slightly. “Surely, you’ve got to have someone special back home.” You stated, a ping of jealous washed over you.
Turning fully towards Loki, you watched his expression flicker into something you couldn’t read.
“No.” He murmured. “They all like my brother better.”
Frowning you shook your head. “Not everyone likes your brother in that way.” You stated in a soft tone, bringing his gaze back towards yours.
“I suppose not.”
After your interaction with Loki, he seemed to seek you out almost every day. Whether, it was in passing in the hallways, or sitting at the same table in the library, or sitting close to you at the dinner table.
It took awhile before he felt comfortable striking up a conversation with you, but once he did, your relationship quickly evolved into a friendship, that developed into being best friends.
“Y/N.” Loki’s voice spoke, standing behind you as you made your bed.
“Geez Loki!” You shrieked placing a hand over your heart. “I told you not to do that.” You giggled once you saw the sly smile along his lips.
“Sorry, love.”
“Sorry, my ass.” You giggled. “Sometimes I think you just like to scare me.”
His chuckle filled the room.
It was quickly becoming one of your favorite sounds.
Sitting on your bed, you motioned for him to join you.
As you sat together on your bed, you weren’t sure who made the first move. With the more time that went on, the closer you got to each other. Soon, your thigh was resting on his as you were sitting with one leg bent on the bed, while the other hung over the edge of the bed.
The sound of a firm knock on your door, put a halt to the conversation.
“Y/N, we’re going to go to a pumpkin farm later.” Tony’s voice stated through your door.
Glancing at Loki, you frowned.
“Let reindeer games know if you want him to come.”
Giggling you couldn’t help the smile that made its way along your lips.
“Loki!” You shrieked throwing your arms around his shoulders, pulling him down onto the bed.
His chuckles filled your ears.
“Yes?” He questioned, as you positioned yourself into a more comfortable position.
You rested your head on his shoulder, as you brought your opposite leg up, to rest along his hips.
“Let’s go pumpkin picking.” You giggled.
“Pumpkin picking?” He questioned, bringing his hand to gently rub up and down your back.
“Yeah!” You exclaimed full of excitement. “It’s kindof a tradition we do.” You giggled. “We go to a pumpkin farm and pick out some pumpkins. Most of the time, you pick a big pumpkin so that you can make it into a Jack’o’lantern, and bake the seeds that are inside.”
He hummed in response. Pressing a kiss to the top of your head.
“What do you say?” You questioned, propping yourself up on one hand so that you could gaze up at him.
“If you’re going.” He muttered. “I’ll go.”
You grinned, while the feeling of excitement overwhelmed you. Before you could think about it, you straddled him, causing him to sit up so he could support you. Throwing your arms around his shoulders, you pulled him flush against you so that your chests were pressed against each other.
“You’ll love it!” You spoke full of excitement.
“Anything for you love.” He chuckled, nuzzling your neck.

Once, the team arrived at the farm, everyone went their own way. While you, Loki, and Thor, ventured through the fields looking for pumpkins. Loki never far behind you.
As you watched Thor, in the fields, he reminded you much of a kid in a candy shop, attempting to point out everything that caught his eyes to his parents.
You giggled at his antics. Loki took you by surprise, as he wrapped his arms firmly around your waist, pulling you flush against him. He placed a quick kiss to your cheek, leaving heat to rise along your features.
The crisp autumn air, whirled around you, causing a delicious shiver down your spine.
“Are you cold love?” Loki’s husky voice questioned in your ear. His voice and close proximity sent another shiver down your spine.
“I’ll take that as a yes.” He chuckled, shrugging off his black tux blazer, wrapping it around your shoulders.
“Is that better?” He questioned standing in front of you, with a concerned expression.
Gaping upwards at him, you didn’t trust your voice. You nodded in response, standing on your tippy toes, you placed a gentle kiss to his cheek in gratitude.
----
Standing in the kitchen, you were next to Thor, as Loki was before you.
“You humans call this ‘Fun’?” He questioned in disbelief, sending you a questionable gaze.
You had cut the top of your pumpkin, not removing all the pumpkin seeds that were inside. You rolled up your sleeves, in attempt to not dirty your shirt. Plunging your hand into the pumpkin, you felt the slimy insides, as it was littered with seeds.
“We do consider this fun.” You giggle, pulling out a handful of goo and seeds.
As you were separating the seeds, from the pulp, you were too immersed to realize the boys were up to something.
Before you knew it, you were covered in slim from the insides of the pumpkins causing you to shriek in shock.
“Wh-” Not allowing you to finish, more slim was thrown at you.
Giggling you threw it off, and onto the newspaper covered table.
“Who threw pumpkin guts at me?” You questioned, giggling.
“It was him.” Both brothers spoke in unison, pointing their finger at the other.
“Oh that’s it.” You spoke in a firm tone, while your lips blew your cover alerting the boys you weren’t at all serious.
Grabbing a handful of pumpkin pulp, you began throwing it at both men.
The sound of laughter filled the room.
“Tony’s going to kill us.” You groaned as you gazed at both men, now covered in pumpkin guts.
“That sounds like a problem for later.” Thor spoke. “I’m going to go shower.” He chuckled.
“He’s been hanging out with you too much.” Loki laughed. “He sounds exactly like you.”
Giggling, you walked side by side through the hallways. “And how would you know that?” You questioned.
Taking you by surprise, your back collided with the wall, as Loki placed his hands on your hips, pressing into you.
His breath danced along your upper lip, as you gazed at him with widened eyes. One of your hands anchoring onto his shoulder, while the other knotted into his hair.
He quickly pressed his lips to yours, in a chaste kiss. As soon as it started, it was over. Causing you to groan in frustration.
“I’m so-”
You didn’t allow him to finish his statement. Tugging him forward, your lips moved against his. Nipping at his bottom lip, as gasp fell from his lips, allowing you to slip your tongue into his mouth. As your tongues tangled, his hands began roaming your body. A soft moan fell from your lips, as he squeezed your behind gently.
Pulling away, you placed your forehead against his, as your breath mingled together.
“We should...” You voice broke off. “We should take this back to my room.” You whispered.
“Are...Are you sure?” He questioned in disbelief.
Not bothering to respond, you grabbed his hand before rushing down the hallway together, your giggles filling the air.
