"And no matter how much they fought, they would somehow be pulled back together, as if forced to reunite. Was it fate? Or just plain luck? Neither knew, but whatever it was, they both loved coming back together, as if addicted to one another."
Y/n...
We arrive at the tower in fifteen minutes. Thor gets out of the car, stretches, and starts to run up the stairs of the tower.
"I'll race you there!" Thor exclaimed. I sighed. For being an Avenger I was extremely out of shape.
"I'm not doing this today." I muttered to myself. Instead of hurting myself trying to run up the stairs, I opened up a portal to the top of the staircase and walked through, meeting Thor right at the top.
"Cheater" he said, exasperated. I made a pouty face mimicking him and opened the door to the living quarters where the rest of the team sat talking amongst themselves.
I remember the first time I walked through those doors. It was right after Tony and a few others rescued me from Hydra. Seeing the team in all their glory made me nervous, embarrassed even. Now, they were family to me and I would do anything for them.
"Hey guys, do you know why we're here?" I asked and sat down next to Wanda. Wanda and I had grown pretty close since I came here. I guess similar trauma can really bring two people together.
"I'm not sure, but whatever it is I need to get something to eat after. You want to come?" Wanda asked.
"Sure. Mr. helpless Prince Charming over there almost burnt my kitchen to a crisp trying to make breakfast today so I'm starving." I joked.
Thor was about to object when he was interrupted by Tony. "Y/n, Thor, we need to talk." He looked tired and had a cup of coffee in his hands. Thor and I exchanged glances yet he looked completely at ease. "He must know something that I don't" I thought.
We walked into another room away from the others and he closed the door. "Am I in trouble for something?" I asked, only half joking.
"No, i needed to talk to you two because, well, I'll just show you. Come with me y/n." He led me to a different room and stopped at the door.
"Now before you get all worked up about this, Thor has already agreed to it so I'll explain everything after." This was odd. Why did Thor know about this and what even was it? He opened the door and my mouth dropped.

There, wrapped in chains was the man I despised. Loki. I turned and shut the door back in his face and faced Tony.
"What the hell is he doing here?" I asked angrily. "Hey I said I would explain-" I cut him off and walked back to the team. I couldn't see Loki there. If he made me walk back in there, I would kill Loki.
When I got to the living room, Thor stopped me. "Y/n listen to me please just let us explain." I turned around and Tony was behind me, trapping me from running out the door.
"So what did you bring him here for me to kill him or something?" I could run out that open window and teleport myself back to my house. Thor could drive the car home and I could get out of this situation very easily, I thought.
"Please sit down and I can explain everything." Tony said behind me, beckoning me to stay. I knew there was no way out of this. I sat and looked out the window, wishing I could leave.
"Now listen, you were in this exact position a couple years ago. Hydra is looking for Loki and we're going to protect him until this blows over." Tony explained. I started to get angry.
"Well it's fine by me but I thought we were the Avengers not some kind of harborers for criminals!" I said sarcastically. "Besides, why are we hiding him? He has tried to kill me and many others before I don't understand why-" I got cut off by Thor.
"Because he's my brother y/n! I need him to be here and safe so he doesn't die again!"
