Unknown Abilities (L.L)

-Date- ²⁴

You hazily open your eyes to see a seated Loki on the foot of your bed with breakfast on a tray in his hands, a cup of orange juice and a few folded crepes with whipped cream and strawberries in between as a filling all drizzled with chocolate syrup and a few more berries adorning around the plate.

"Good morning." Loki said with a deep velvety morning voice indicating he himself wasn't that far off from just waking up. He lowers the tray on the bed as you sit up right, rubbing your eyes to rid of the sleep.

"Morning Loki." You spoke sleepily as a yawn left your lips.

He smiled softly and ticked his head towards the tray, inclining you to the breakfast he made. "I made you breakfast, I hope I wasn't too stalker like or creepy when you woke up to me in your bedroom." He says slightly laughing, a light blush creeping up to his cheeks.

You chuckle at him, "Don't worry you weren't." You assured him and took the utensils provided on the plate and started to eat away at the meal.

He looks down at your lips that had a bit of the syrup. You slowed down your chewing and you look at him curiously, licking off the chocolate. He swallows thickly at this before clearing his throat and standing up abruptly.

"I should go, got to prepare for our date. Enjoy the rest of your breakfast darling." He jerks his thumb towards the door and leaves.

You nod confusingly.

Why the sudden leave?

Weird God.

"Hey, Y/n did any-" Nat said stopping when she saw you two cuddling up on the couch, books on hand, feet on table with a blanket draped over your bodies, a tray of half eaten brownies on the table, mugs on the side with small remainders of hot chocolate in it.

Both you and Loki jolt up and move away from each other's touch, leaving your faces red with embarrassment. But you can see from the corner of your eye that a small smirk was hiding away on Loki's lips.

"Sup Nat," you say closing your book and ignoring her smug face.

"You know what, I can come another time," she said smirking while slowly turning around.

"No, stay, come on. What were you saying?" You blurted out frantically.

You felt as though you were caught doing something illegal, even if you weren't.

She turns around with a knowing smirk, "I was just about to ask how you were feeling, and if anything changed. But you're busy, I can come back later." She wiggles her eyebrows and made her way to the door.

"Oh and, Be safe. Use protection!" She yells lastly before leaving the room.

You turn a bright red knowing what she meant.

"Oh, what ever does she mean by that?" Loki said behind you. 

"I can't tell if you actually know what she means or you're just being a tease." You turn around to meet his eyes.

"If you mean one of those things that a couple uses when doing intercourse to prevent procreating then yes I'm being a tease" He said with a grin.

Speechless.

"What has Thor been teaching you." You scoff laughingly, and land back down on the couch.

"Oh, no darling, I learned that all by myself. Want me to show you what I learned?" He said, getting closer.

You smirk and a small laugh left your lips. You lean in closer, playing his game. Your lips get close to his ear, whispering "Good night."

His brows rise up, the grin turning into a smile as you leave for your bed.

"Look who's being the tease."

You giggle at his remark and open your bedroom door.

A click was heard as you close your door, your smile staying on your lips,

Although, your heart can't help but beat a bit faster by your actions. Even you were surprised by them. Surprising, but positively thrilling.

You can't just fall asleep now, you wait a couple of hours, and if you weren't exactly in dreamland by then you would grab a snack and get some reading in.

So, at 12:30, you were staring up at your ceiling with no plans of going to bed.

You stand up and open your door to head to the kitchen and make a bee-line to the fridge. You grab a carton of milk and some left over brownies while the events from earlier still occupy your mind, your heart fluttering.

Realizing that you were smiling like an idiot and also the fact that the brownies and milk didn't help, you decide on heading back to your room.

Maybe you could call Vanessa to catch her up on everything, if she even wants to pick up after your ghosting that is. You open your laptop and click at her username, hoping that she's awake at 1 in the morning, after all, it was only 7-ish in the morning there.

Calling...

The ringing continued for about 5 more minutes, but as you grew impatient, you opted to stop the futile attempt at contacting her again and decided to read until sleep visits you.

You grab a book from your bedside table and catch up on reading. You'll eventually fall asleep from it.

But, next door, Loki stares at the stolen picture he took of you from his phone.

Tony handed him a phone for limited use of course.

He thought the idea was a ridiculous one, but, turns out it came in handy when capturing his memories. Especially with you, or just you.

He takes a few more seconds admiring you before making it his wallpaper.

One more happy sigh left his lips before he closes his eyes and drifts off to sleep.
