Once the door closes behind me Loki appears out of nowhere. "We need to talk, now."

Loki grabs my hand and uses his magic to teleport us to his rooms door. He drags me into his room and locks the door with the key and makes it disappear.

I slowly back away from Loki. I don't know what was wrong. I was almost scared.

He walks towards me and grabs my uncut arm. He rolls up the sleeve in one quick motion and finds nothing. He goes for the other hand but I move out of the way making him miss.

"Give me your arm." Loki demands with a raised voice and an angry tone.

I walk back slowly and trip on the back of the bed falling onto Loki's bed on my ass. I now know, he knows about my cutting.

"NOW!" he yells at me I could tell he wasn't actually angry but worried in his own way.

My eyes start to tear up and I move my arm towards Loki slowly. He grabs it and rolls up the sleeve revealing all my old scars and my new ones that are bandaged with gauze.

He runs his hand over the cuts and I flinch from his cold touch over the raw cuts. My flinch sort of scares Loki and quickly drops my arm letting it fall to my side again.

He turns away from me and starts to pace around the room. "Why? I want to know why you did this to yourself." he says as he paces.

I stay quietly as tears run down my face. How did he find out. Had he seen them while we were training. He couldn't have I had my uniform on. Plus with him reaction now you would think if me noticed while training he would bring it up then and there. He must have just noticed today.

I finally have enough courage to speak up. "How did you find out?" I manage to get out. I pull down my sleeves and I wipe the tears away.

"I read your mind when you were daydreaming in the meeting. I want to see what or who you were thinking of." Loki says stopping and looking at me.

"YOU READ MY MIND! Your not aloud to do that here. I could get you back in a cell you know." I almost shout.

"And I could tell your parents about your arm." he says walking up to me. He has the leverage here. I can't use anything here against him now.

"No, please don't I can't have them know about this." I stand up looking at Loki.

"Then tell me why." Loki says.

"Fine. Sit." I say a I sit down on the bed patting beside me. Loki comes and sits beside me.

"I haven't been good mentally lately. I haven't felt like my self and I'm just trying to get rid of some of the pain and stress I'm feeling." my eyes start to tear up again.

"My Dad has almost died 6 times in the past couple of months. Twice have been because of you. My mother is always stressed for his life. I just can't do it anymore." the tears flow fast. I cover my face with my hands in embarrassment to cover the tears.

Loki slowly, akwardly wraps his arm around my body trying to comfort me. I lean into his body and his grasp softens as he becomes a little more comfortable.

"I-I'm sorry for yelling at you." he apologizes. I am shocked that he just apologized. For the couple of weeks I have known him he has never apologized and I could ask Thor and there has probably only once he has ever apologized to him.

"I'm sorry you have to do this to get rid of stress." says Loki. "Why don't you talk to Stark or Pepper about this?" he asks.

"They would be so disappointed in me. They would never trust me again. They might put me in a mental hospital." I answer turning a bit and looking and him. He is taller then me so I had to look up a bit.

"Loki, Please don't tell anyone." I say almost begging.

"I won't I promise. I don't know your parents well, so i can't tell you they won't do that but I am here for you if you need anything. " Loki says trying to comfort him but practically failing.

"That doesn't help much but thank you." I say with little smile.

"Can I go now?" I ask just wanting to get away from this conversation. I stand up about to walk away.

"You need to promise me you won hurt your self again." Loki says holding my arm stopping me from walking to the door.

I turn to him "I'm sorry I can't promise that. But I will try." I say with a small reassuring smile.

"Then I cant promise your parents won't find out." Loki says standing up looking down on me with a straight face.

"Fine, I- I promise." I struggle to say it knowing I won't be able to keep the promise for long.

"Thank you." says Loki at me using his magic to make the key reappear.

I snatch it from him and walk to the door. I unlock it and then place the key on the book shelf and turn to him, "Goodbye Loki."
