Avenged (Loki x reader)

Chapter 31 - Shut up

IRIS'S POV

I watch as her eyes shut and her knees drop her to the floor. She didn't know she was pregnant? That must mean she had it by choice and recently... I rush to her side and wail, "Y/N!"

At the same moment, a group of three busts through the roof and yell, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?" One roars at me.

I recognise him as Loki. The other two are Dr Stephen Strange and Wanda Maximoff, "I promise I didn't mean to!" I shake, stepping back at the green force pushing me away.

"She's passed out," The doctor sighs, "She will be okay." He assures Loki as Wanda pulls him back from charging at me.

"You're coming with us." She threatens, the red pushing me towards them, followed by the crashing of a large group of the Avengers.

Seeing their angered expressions, regret drowned me. She had finally found people she could trust. She found the people that she can call home no matter the location. Amongst the crowd, I noticed the red-headed girl and the blonde. Her happiness would go on forever. Her body was fulfilled and at peace.

LOKI'S POV

My breath was shallow and my fists balled. Not at the girl but at Y/N. She ran away and I knew it. She is perfectly capable and comfortable with escaping a place like this, why didn't she? Y/N was hiding something from me. Two escapes. She was too powerful at this. Running away and leaving again and again. I stared at her limp body in my hands and examined her with my eyes. She is so beautiful but she looks different. She is going to be 21 in these years in a few days so maybe that's it. Just an age thing.

Back at the tower

PETER'S POV

"Mnh... Loki?" She whimpers, laying her head on my stomach.

"Y/N... Are you feeling any better? It's Peter," I smile, trying to contain my happiness.

Her eyes flutter open to face me with a smile, "Hi Peter, I need to tell you something," She shakily says.

I smile gently and nod, "I know,"

"What?" Her face drops and she sits up.

"You are having a baby," I grin, "Who's the father?"

"I don't know," She admits, her eyes glassy as she gets off the bed.

"I haven't told anyone," I assure her, walking out after her as she slightly limps and switched to hovering.

"Where's Loki?"

"In his room, I think they are talking about something, do you need me to do anything for you?"

"Uh I know this might be weird but can you get me a pregnancy test and call Pepper to my room?" She gulps on her way to Loki's room hesitantly.

"Sure yeah," I nod, jumping to the elevator and onto the floor as I swing out to the shops.

Y/N's POV

I smile gratefully at him and I knock weakly on his door as my pain slowly wears off.

He grunts a 'come in' and I step inside.

"Why did you leave me?" He asks between gritted teeth.

"I didn't mean to.." I answer with a gulp again.

"Liar! You are perfectly fine with escaping a weak hold like that!" He shouts back at me.

The air is dead in the building and I sense others listening in.

"DO YOU HEAR ME? OR DO YOU NOT CARE TO LISTEN?" He yells, stepping forward threateningly.

"Iris was my friend and I needed to talk to her... You can't blame me for wanting to explain!" I scoff back, offended he would question me.

"YOU WERE PASSED OUT ON THE FLOOR WHEN WE FOUND YOU FOR ODIN'S SAKE!" Another step forward.

I wince and step back towards the door, "Please be quiet, I thought you would trust me to be okay! I am completely fine," I risk a few steps towards him and I put a hand on his arm.

"This isn't about you, Y/N. I know that you would be fine there but this is about us. You left twice already and didn't say a word to me." He growls.

"Do you not want to be there for me?" My eyes widen as a hand trails to my stomach.

"I am not the one who left for weeks on end."

LOKI'S POV

"I'm sorry..." She tilts her head down to the floor, clutching her stomach slightly. Her hand loosens on my arm, the shouting must have gotten to her.

I feel a sudden pool of guilt and I grab her tightly but instead of a calmer reaction, she flinches and jumps backwards and the f/c surrounds her protectively.

I stare at her fight moded stance and the guilt rushes through me but I don't realise how horrible I look.

"Stay back!" She wails, flinching again as I reach out, she steps further back and pushes me away with her powers and I stop.

"I'm sorry," I begin, breathing heavily as I watch her race out of the room.

The door reveals the whole team staring at her protected body and the tear stains on our faces. Thor stares at the two of us, dumbfoundedly.

PEPPER POV

She floated to her room, probably shaking with his strong grip spinning in her mind. Finding me worried sick for her, the force dropped and so did she. Y/N flinched at every noise and tears pooled down, "Please Pepper I can't have a baby now," She shivers up at me from the floor.

"Shh, please Y/N, you will be a great mum but before we worry about anything of that sort, take the test again," She strokes her shoulder comfortingly as Y/N wobbles up to her knees. Her broken heart brings back memories of when Tony was reckless and so much more impulsive. If what Peter said was true, this would help.

"I am not even 21," Her voice quavers as I help her up properly.

"We will all support you in looking after your child," I try to soothe, ushering her to the bathroom gently.

While she takes the test, Thor's attempted hushed voice fails. I listen in from the walls the best I can manage. He tries to give his best advice with Y/N to Loki even with that desperation, panicking about what he did wrong.

A soft smile appears on my lips. He really does care a lot for her...Thor was right, he just can't show it.
