College AU
~~~
Getting into College is difficult. Add in the fact it's the most prestigious hero academy in the whole world and you've got yourself quite the journey ahead. You weren't magical or super badass, you weren't a god nor a super genius. B...
"Heard you made quite the impression on Aphrodite," Tony caught you making instant noodles in the kitchen with the girls.
"Yeah, the whole campus is talking about it!" Clint laughs.
"How did you know all that?" Wanda inquires as you slump against the kitchen bench.
"A lot of time researching and observing as a child gives me the cool super power of deduction," you mumble.
"Is that why you like Sherlock?"
You shrug and stir the noodles around in the cup. "I'll tell you all about my Super Villain backstory in the future, just not now,"
"Ironic considering this is a hero academy!" Tony calls as you walk away.
"Yeah, but Villain sounds cooler!" turning the face the front again you nearly bump right into Loki. "Shoot, sorry,"
"Not to worry, it could have been much worse," he smiles softly, peering into the cup. "What is that?"
"Instant noodles? Have you never had them?"
"Asgard doesn't provide such... delicacies," he sneers at the sight.
"Don't insult Instant noodles before trying them," nodding for him to follow, you enter your room and toss him a cup. "Try it out, instructions on the side,"
"And if I die?"
"Then the world would mourn for centuries!"
He laughs lightly and nods, thanking you before leaving. You closed the door behind him, digging right into your meal.

There was a rapid knock on your door. It was 12 AM! Who the hell could this be?? Opening the door, the trickster god stood there with a frantic look.
"I need more,"
"More??" You tilt your head as he held up the empty cup. "So it didn't poison you,"
"Where do I get more? Show me,"
"Loki, it's midnight, got to bed,"
"No," He takes your hand and drags you out.
"Wait- hey! Hold on, let me just get my things," Slipping on a hoodie and some shoes, you grab your keys and wallet. "You're insufferable,"
"I'm well aware, now let's go," trudging down the hall to the exit you stop.
"Wait, why can't you go yourself?"
"I don't have a mode of transport,"
"Of course,"
~~~
"Please tell me you at least have money? I'm not going to be your Uber and ATM,"
"Yes, yes, calm down, Lady Y/n," parking the car, you get out with him.
"You don't need to keep calling me 'Lady Y/n', Y/n is just fine, Loki,"
He nods as you both enter the 7/11. Loki went off on his own as you wandered the aisles picking out snacks you'd need in case of emergencies. Filling up the basket you get a giant slushy and walk to the counter where Loki was paying for quite a lot of cup noodles.
"Feeding a small village are we?"
"Feeding a city are we?" He looks to your basket making you flip him off. "What's that?" You both made your way back to the car with food in hand.
"A slushy, soda all iced up," holding it to his lips before you started up the engine he took a taste, a small faint blue rising up along his lips.
"That's very nice," he chuckles, smiling at the sweet taste. "I may get one, mind waiting a moment?"
"Not at all, your majesty," you gesture to the door as he rolls his eyes and leaves. Watching him enter the store you sit back in your seat with a furrowed face. His lips turned blue... like a soft baby blue with a slight indent around? Were you seeing things? It was almost 1 AM-
"Let's go," you jump as he shuts the car door with his drink.
~~~
Throughout the ride you glanced at him every time he took a sip of the icy drink. Blue. Every sip it faded in then out. What the hell??
"You're staring," he mumbles once the car parked. "Or were,"
"Pfft- What? I wasn't staring," You scoff and get out the car.
"I get I am quite the charmer, if you wish to kiss me just ask," he smirks causing a blush to rise.
"That's not why I was staring!"
"So you were staring?"
"Shut up, Friggason," you grumble and push open the building door. "Your lips just turn blue," you explain. "I could just be seeing things but-"
"Ignore it," his snarl so hostile it sent a frightened shock through you. His eyes narrowed at the floor, hands clutched into fists around the bag. Embarrassment and a sensitive topic... Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
"Loki," you take a hold of his upper arm making his head snap down to you with piercing red eyes. "Your eyes..." He flinches away from your hesitant hands.
"Ignore it, Y/n,"
You nod, retracting your hand and sighing. "It's a sensitive topic, I can tell... but if you need to talk to anyone, anyone at all, I'm just down the hall," bumping shoulders with him, a thankful smile plasters his lips.
"Thank you,"
"No problem... oh, and next time you wake me up at this time I'm retaliating, be glad I was hungry," Taking a mocking sip of your drink he nods and solemnly waves goodbye.
