Y/n's pov
I groan and stretch, finding myself in bed. I eventually roll onto my side and fail to sit up, my body aches a little, that's odd. Looking at the clock on the wall, damn... Half one already? My stomach is just as shocked as me, gurling for attention.
Stuck in bed I look around at the monotonous walls, at least I didn't explode, I then remember the book I was reading before I decided to take a nap, I look to my side and it's not where I left it. Where the f*ck is my book? Then something catches my eye, a cast... on my arm? When did that get there? My arm feels all sweaty now I think about it, so does my leg, wait, I tug my duvet to the side and see that my leg too is in a white cast. What the hell?
Then my door clicks open, a Bruce creeping in silently, "Oh, Y/n, I thought you would still be asleep, given your state"
"What?" My state? "Yeah about that, why am I all achy? Why do I have casts on? Did someone break in and steal my stuff?" I sit up with difficulty, leaning on my non casted hand.
Bruce steps forward and his brow furrows with concern, "Woah, careful, don't push yourself."
"I don't understand, I haven't broken anything." What happened? Did I explode again? Shit, am I in trouble?
"Do you not remember what happened? You were talking to Stephen and Steve about it?" He apprehensively smiles.
"I did?"
"Yes, then you fell asleep next to Loki and he took you to your room. I don't know where he is now but-"
"LOKI?!"
Bruce jumps, "Um..."
"SH*T! THAT HAPPENED?"
"Yes, it did. Are you feeling okay? Did we give you too many painkillers?"
"No, its just, just, I thought that was a dream."
Bruce's mouth makes an oh, then chuckling, "I mean, I have never seen Loki be so sweet to anyone, it makes him seem less scary, well to a certain extent..." I try to listen, but his words just fizzle out of my ears. I can't believe that happened last night.
I lay back down, frozen in shock. Did Loki really stay with me through the night?
Bruce claps his hands together softly and walks back to the door, but still peers in, "Well, I came to tell you Strange gave strict orders for you to stay on bed rest for a week or so, someone will get you food. If there is an emergency you can use the wheelchair to get out. Just don't get out of bed unnecessarily, understand?"
"Yes, thank you." Then Bruce left and closed my door
You actually...
Wow Y/n...
Did you really ask him to bed?
I guess I was high.
My heart flutters as I think about Loki's comfort. I wonder where he is right now. I wish I could get up and find him, but my muscles are too sore. And these casts don't give me the best range of motion. The best I can do is shuffle myself into a sitting position, resting on the headboard of my bed.
I can't help but sigh like some lovesick teenager in a romcom. The way he just curled up to me, he's so pretty...
Then hear a knock on my door, is it Loki?
"Yes? Come in!"
I sag my shoulders as a bit of disappointment rushes through me, it's only Thor. But that disappointment melts away when I see the most delicious looking sandwich in his hands. Give me that now! "Oh my gods, thank you so much, I'm so hungry."
Thor hands me the plate, "Ha ha, Loki made this for you, he left it in the kitchen."
"Well that was smart considering I'm not supposed to leave my bed."
"He didn't do it intentionally." Thor then steps back to lean on the doorframe, taking a deep breath. His eyes are troubled, what happened?
"Wait, is he ok? He didn't get uncomfortable when- I mean was he annoyed at me for any-"
"It is impossible for Loki to be annoyed at you." He warmly smiles.
"Oh." So Loki really must like me then?
Thor scratches the back of his head saying, "He and Tony had an argument, I reckon he just forgot about it as he left to... let some steam off."
"Oh no, is he ok though? I know sometimes Tony pushes too far-"
"I can assure you that he will be fine, you always seem to cheer him up, I'll send him over."
"Yes, if that will make him feel better." Do I really have that effect on Loki?
"Oh and, you and Loki, I think you two go very well together." Thor winks and leaves the room before explaining what he means by that.
We'd go well together? Would Loki think so too? I guess Bruce would agree if he is less scared of Loki now. Has it really been this obvious that I have fallen for him? Does everyone know?
