Marvel Universe Imagines and One Shots

Which one of you idiots did it? - Part 5 - Steve x Bucky x Stephen x Loki

Forgive me for not updating sooner, but I am still quite sick. Hope the chapter is ok, and you enjoy.

Loki huffed. The God of Mischief making it more than obvious that he was far from enjoying the current situation. But Steve and Bucky were determined to do all they could to keep their little doll happy. And even the usually stoic Stephen was, despite his own current appearance, desperately trying to hold back a smile, as Loki huffed once again, and blew a few stray strands of matt black hair from in front of his face.

After a very demanding breakfast, where the tiny Banner had insisted that she wanted boiled eggs, that had to be cooked just to her liking. And her toast had to be cut into soldiers just like Steve and Bucky. Loki having to dodge an egg when it became abundantly clear that it had not been boiled to the little (Y/n)'s taste. It had been Stephen's turn for the torture, when she had insisted on dragging him to one of the sofas in the common room, forcing the Master of the Magical Arts to turn on the TV so that they could watch, what Stephen believed, must be the pinkest, floweriest, most unicorn filled, fairy cartoon to have ever been created. The ex-neurosurgeon unable to escape the braincell killing creation, as not only was his every move being watched by two overprotective super soldiers. But also (Y/n) had insisted on sitting herself on his lap. The little Banner surprisingly heavy for one so small, making it impossible for him to move, while she and his cape played. The red garment appearing to be having much more fun with the little girl than its wearer was. Stephen finally accepting his fate as his cloak wrapped itself around a giggling (Y/n)'s shoulders, refusing to budge. But it wasn't until the tiny creature had snuggled into his chest, and slowly drifted off to sleep, that the cold heart of the sorcerer had begun to thaw a little. Steve and Bucky not sure whether to feel jealous or relieved, as they took their sleeping doll back to the bedroom, so that she could finish her nap.

But now, (Y/n) was back with a vengeance. And had decided that it was high time for a tea party. A tea party for royalty. (Y/n), of course, had assigned herself Queen. Her two super soldiers were the charming princes'. And Stephen and Loki, well Stephen and Loki were now pretty princesses. Both of them decked out in little plastic tiaras, feather boas and pink tutus. Bucky and Steve not sure where their girlfriend had been hiding such items, but both deciding they would have to enquire when she was back to full size. And just to add insult to injury, Loki's hair had been pinned up with a multitude of brightly coloured pins and ribbons. For once, the frost giant strangely deciding that discretion was the better part of valour. Realising that if (Y/n) could still get him to the ground and bang his head so hard into the floor that it had left a dent that would have to be explained to Stark when he and the rest of the team got back. He better keep his mouth shut.

"Would you like some tea, pwincess Loki?" (Y/n) asked, as she poured some water from a tea pot into a cup. Loki looking disdainfully at the liquid that had just been presented to him.

"If we have to suffer this indignity. Why can't we at least have real tea?" Loki grumbled, as he almost threw the cup back onto the table. The disgruntled god instantly forgetting about discretion, valour, or keeping his mouth shut.

"Because. If you haven't noticed. (Y/n) is a child, and children can't mess with hot water. Dummy!" Bucky scoffed, as he gratefully accepted his cup of "tea" and drank it happily.

"(Y/n) is not a child! She is a monster in a tiny body. And people say that I am wicked. I have nothing on this creature." Loki retorted as he pulled the tiara from his head. A high pitched noise suddenly emanating from the said little monster, as tears began to roll down her cheeks. None of the four men knowing quite what to do as the tears continued to flow, and the noise got louder. The little girl throwing herself into Steve and Bucky's arms.

"Loki, you're mean. I make you my pwincess and you won't dwink my tea. I'm telling Bwuce that you think I'm a monster. And I'm telling Thor that you're not allowed to be the pwincess of As..... As......."

"Asgard." Stephen interrupted. Smiling at Loki who was now glaring at him.

"Fine! I'll drink your tea." Loki retorted. Deciding that it was better to drink the water than suffer the further embarrassment of having his oaf of a brother informed about all of this. And having to deal with the Hulk, if Banner found out that he had upset his beloved little sister.

"Wear the crown too?" (Y/n) sniffed, wiping her nose on her sleeve. Her big doe eyes looking pleadingly up at Loki. The God of Mischief reluctantly retrieving the ghastly and gaudy piece of plastic, and placed it back on his head. His eyes growing wide as (Y/n) suddenly rushed into his arms and held him tight.

"I tell Thor that you should be King too." (Y/n) whispered in the gods ear, before re-joining her charming princes', chatting happily with them as Stephen and Loki looked on in disbelief.

Under normal circumstances, both men would reluctantly admit that they had a soft spot for the beautiful doctor Banner. She was intelligent, quick witted, and quite charming. And despite their different worlds, both the doctor and god believed that (Y/n) was not so dissimilar from them. Each having, on the odd occasion, thoughts of what it would be like to be with the beauteous creature, if the great Captain America and Winter Soldier had not already claimed her heart.

"Pwincess Loki. The queen wants to dance." (Y/n) suddenly declared, as she rummaged around in Bucky's pocket. Triumphantly raising up his cell phone and scrolling through the old soldier's music collection to find something suitable. An excited little squeak emanating from her lips as she found the perfect song and pulled Loki from his seat. Bucky and Steve watching on as (Y/n) then pulled Stephen to his feet. The god nor the doctor knowing quite what to do as the little Banner danced around then. Though cloak did decided to leave Strange's shoulders and join in the fun.

"You ever feel like a gooseberry?" Bucky asked, feeling slightly jealous that (Y/n) seemed to be picking Stephen and Loki over him.

"I do feel a little unwanted. But we are talking about (Y/n) Banner here. And despite her being small, I think that she knows exactly what she's doing." Steve chuckled. Bucky raising an eyebrow as he waited for his old friend to expand on his comment.

"F.R.I.D.A.Y. records everything, right? So, everything that is happening now will be on the record. And Stark will be able to see it. And despite the fact that he will take great delight in ribbing me and you, just think of the ammunition this is going to give him against Strange and Loki. Clint, Sam and Scott will have a field day. Thor will do nothing but laugh. And Bruce will probably take great delight in making Loki regret calling (Y/n) a monster." Steve explained. Bucky smiling as he realised that Steve was right. And that the only reason (Y/n) was doing what she was doing, was because she knew that when the spell wore off from her, the torture for Loki and Strange, would have only just begun.

"How much longer do ya think she can keep this up?" Bucky chuckled, as (Y/n) happily sang along with the song. The little girl continuing to force the two magic manipulators to "dance".

"As long as it takes, Buck. As long as it takes. Though how much more you and I, never mind Strange and Loki can take, is a different matter." Steve yawned, sure that not even their super soldier serum was going to help them keep up with their little doll, until she was back to her normal self.
