Resurrection - Loki - Y/N - TikTok Story

5

She was laying on the floor on her back, her face swollen and covered in dried blood. Her clothes were torn and chard along one side where it looked as though she'd taken a hit from a Chitauri weapon. Not a direct hit thankfully, but still pretty bad.
Loki rushed over to her side to take a better look at her injuries and see if he could help.
She had a deep laceration on her side where she was burnt and a nasty head wound. Loki didn't have much time to do anything except check she was still breathing, before EMT's arrived and loaded Y/N on to a stretcher then into a waiting ambulance.

"Sir?, Sir? Do you know this woman?", the EMT asked him urgently.

"Yes, yes! I'm her boyfriend"

He surprised himself with the words that automatically left his mouth without thinking. He had claimed her already as his without even uttering a word to her. She was his.

They ushered Loki into the back of the ambulance where he took a seat. He watched them work on Y/N with a very observant eye as they took her to hospital. He couldn't use his healing powers, not with people watching, he'd get caught. All he could do was sit and watch her, hoping she would be alright.

Loki started getting emotional, really emotional. This wasn't like him at all. Every time he looked at her, he knew it was his fault. He was the reason she was hurt. He'd never felt so much guilt. In fact this was an almost entirely new experience for him. One which frightened him. How could he feel like this for a woman he hadn't even spoken to, all because she looked like someone he knew, who he loved a lifetime ago.

He questioned himself, but deep down he knew, he knew it was her and he didn't care how she was back, all that mattered was that she was.

At the hospital, Loki didn't leave her side for a moment. The doctors examined her and the nurses cared for her, getting her cleaned up.
Loki even helped by washing her face and hands with the warm soapy water they provided in a metal kidney dish. He carefully soaked the dried blood, before gently rubbing that and the dirt away with a soft cloth. He worked diligently making sure he didn't miss a spot. If only he could use his magic to speed up her healing.

Y/N had been unconscious for five days and Loki had not left her side. If he wasn't holding her hand, he was stroking her face with a delicate soft touch.

As he held onto her hand, he let his thumb run over the peaks and dips of her knuckles, as he sat lost in thought, lost in his guilt.

Y/N was constantly watched. Whether it was hospital staff or the security cameras in her room, they were never alone.

Loki had little choice but to wait it out and not use his healing powers for fear of getting caught. The green glow it would cause couldn't be hidden.

He hadn't noticed the nurse come into the room which caused him to jump slightly as she interrupted the faint hums of the monitoring equipment.

"You should get some proper rest, she'll be fine for a few hours"

Her words were full of kindness and concern, but nothing was going to make Loki leave her.

His eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep and he had dark, sunken rings under them.

He fidgeted in his seat before answering her.

"I'm not leaving her"

"At least take a shower, I'll stay with her whilst you're gone"

Loki took a deep steadying breath. He didn't want to be rude or unkind to this woman who had taken care of Y/N, but he wasn't going anywhere.

"I'm NOT leaving her!", he said firmly.

"Okay..." The nurse paused before continuing, "you know this isn't your fault right?"

-If only she knew- he thought.

Y/N started mumbling causing Loki to tighten his grip on her hand.

The nurse had a calm and reassuring voice as she spoke to Y/N.

"It's alright sweetie... She's starting to wake"

Y/N began shouting,

"LOKI!"

The nurse looked concerned as she turned towards Loki then back to Y/N and placed her hand on Y/N's shoulder.

"It's alright sweetie, he can't hurt you now", she turned back to Loki.

"Poor girl must have been terrified, I'll go get a doctor".

With that she disappeared out of the room, leaving a very unsure and nervous Loki behind.

As Y/N continued to shout out Loki's name, it wasn't in a terrified way. She was calling out for him, calling for him to come to her.

Loki dropped Y/N's hand afraid of what the nurse had said to be true and unsure of what his next move should be when the nurse returned.

The nurse came around to the side of Y/N's bed to try and calm her. She spoke softly to her,

"It's alright sweetie, your boyfriend is here".

Y/N's eyes flew open.

"Boyfriend?"

Her voice full of surprise, was husky and dry from the lack of moisture in her mouth.
