Behind The Mischief

chapter 10

T.W. rape will be mentioned but not much

after Loki calmed down, he fell asleep on tony, snuggled up against him with his face pushed into the crook of his neck. while still threading his fingers through his hair he glared at the twins, even the team felt uneasy with how he was glaring hatefully at them

rhodey came up to him "come on tones, let's put him back to bed" tony just sighed, tearing his gaze away from them, and to his best friend "fine" he huffed out and lifted Loki with ease, which was concerning but the team just continued to stare at him, not knowing that one of their teammates were able to carry a grown-ass man with fucking ease. clint was the first to break out of his trans though

"....how...?" he pondered as he watched tony walk away with rhodey, everyone was asking themself the same thing 'how' how did they not know that he can do the comforting talks, how did they not know that he was able to lift someone with ease when they have never seen him come down to the training room

come to think of it, they never noticed how he always seemed to gain more muscles week after week...........they were pretty dumb for superhero's

after some time tony came back looking hella mad, rhodey must have stayed back with Loki in case he woke up to a nightmare again cause he wasn't with him

"what..the..hell....were you thinking?" his voice was dangerously low, anger visible in his voice "do you both know how hard it was to get him at least a little bit comfortable to be around people?!" his voice getting louder by the second, his arms crossed over his chest "it's hard for him to even eat or sleep and you just snatch that away from him and make him start from the fucking beginning! fuck I don't even know how he's gonna be when he wakes up!" both of them looked down in shame but still confused 

"tony...they don't know what happened" nat tried reasoning with him slowly "yeah, but that still doesn't give her the right to just mess up someone's mind nat!" he spat out "someone tell them what happened, I don't want this to happened again. they've caused enough problems" he muttered and left to Loki's room

nat sighed and started explaining when rhodey came back down "how is he?" bruce asked while nat was still giving them the details of the past two weeks "he's constantly muttering things in his sleep, I don't think it's gonna be good when he wakes up" rhodey pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed

"it's not...wanda...what did you trigger him with?" he asked softly when he saw both of them looking guilty and on the verge of tears at what they'd done "i-i made him look at his worst f-fears...I'm sorry..." she whispered out, Pietro just hugged her, bruce looked towards rhodey and shook his head. that's all they needed to know that nothing is gonna be good for a while

when tony entered Loki's room he told rhodey he could go, and so he did. rhodey knew that Loki only needed to see one face when he wakes up from a nightmare. seeing more than one could make him pass out from a panic attack

he sat leaning against the headboard of his bed, threading his fingers through his hair. he smiled when Loki leaned against his touch but that smile turned into a sad one when he heard Loki mumble something and slowly started shaking

he laid down next to him, muttering sweet things into his ear while still threading his fingers through his hair. he felt Loki slowly calm down against his touch and he snuggled up to him for more, tony silently scolded himself for blushing 'Loki's not well tony stop!' 

he was once again concerned for the god sinch he hasn't even eaten properly, plus he hasn't eaten breakfast and lunch, he swore to himself he'd get some food inside of him somehow when he wakes up

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

in the past hour, Loki has had almost 4 nightmares and through all of them, tony managed to help him through. what broke him the most was when he would shake away from tony's touch constantly telling him not to touch him, it was clear that he was having a nightmare from when he was raped. but thankfully he was able to get him out of it

tony was thankful that he was able to be here for Loki like this, he'd always push rhodey away and deal with it on his own. no matter how much he wanted to deny it, he always craved touch and affection when he was having a panic attack or nightmare. but he constantly denied it all telling himself that 'stark men are made of iron'.

thanks to his new family, he was able to find comfort in them, they taught him that finding comfort when needed was not weak and that it was ok. slowly he opened up to them and trusted them, he wanted to be able to do the same for Loki, to lend him a shoulder to lean on, to help him heal and be his normal self again, the sarcastic Loki

Loki started to mumble again and it was currently 3 p.m and not once in between did tony leave, slowly Loki started to open his eyes, and this time...it was not from panic or a nightmare. it was the first time in those few hours that he woke up normally...when is anything normal in this tower?

he slowly opened his eyes and looked around, after being aware of his surrounding's he looked at tony dead in the eyes for a sec and for that second tony thought that this might be a new kind of panic attack....is where you don't panic...which is even more terrifying. but he held eye contact and it was as if a light switch was turned on and his eyes widened "hey lokes" he muttered quietly but softly causing a certain god to have butterflies "h-hi...what h-happened?" 

he sighed "well it was mostly our fault..we forgot the twins didn't know about what happened to you so the witch girl kinda...messed up your mind a bit" he looked down, Loki knew tony felt guilty, he could see it on his face

Loki gently took his shaking hand and placed it on tony's cheek when he wasn't looking, they were both laying on their sides facing each other, tony eyes snapped towards his, felt his cheeks heating up causing butterflies, it didn't help the fact that he started liking the god

"it wasn't your fault tony.." he muttered softly, tony on the other hand had a hard time pushing his feelings away and he obviously didn't know what he was thinking cause the next thing he knows he had his lips pressed against soft and cold ones...

cliffhanger hehe
