A/N- sorry for any mistakes, I don't have the time or patience to reread right now this but please let me know if you find anything that shouldn't be there or the other way around

it had been five days sense your fever reached its all time high and every night sense then Loki had gotten you to close your eyes so he could keep your temperature down, it'd been pretty much fine for two days now but Loki wanted to be entirely sure the fever was gone.

you'd decided that tonight was going to be different, there would be no closing eyes, no hiding and you were determined to get him to do it willingly. you didn't want to promise him that you closed your eyes just to go back on that promise. you knew he was fragile and that doing something like that would ruin what you have.

so you sat him down after making supper, and you told him what you wanted. you explained to him that you didn't want him to feel like he had to hide, especially from you. he hesitantly agreed and it was clear that he was worried about what you would think, no matter how long you spent trying to reassure him, he wouldn't listen because you hadn't seen the monster he deemed himself. you understood that there was only so much you could do before he showed you but you knew that either way youd find him absolutely stunning because he would always be your Loki. you just wished hed see himself that way.

you'd agreed to close your eyes while he shifts as long as he'd let you open them again. the two of you headed back to your room so Loki would be at least a little more comfortable even though he was terrified about the situation hed got himself stuck in. within his concern for your wellbeing he managed to forget what a curious being you are.

he knew that if you reacted badly to him hed have no one but himself to blame, hed been a fool to think he could turn what he is into anything good or useful.

he was now regretting not thinking this through, his heart was racing as you pulled him into your shared room. he felt so exposed knowing that in a few moments your opinion of him would change drastically, that minutes from now you would leave him because of what he is.

you could feel his hand tremble in yours, you knew he was scared but youd never seen him this worried before, not when he woke up from nightmares or when him and Thor were fighting or even when him and Tony started all out brawls.

him showing this much fear of himself made you wonder who said something to him and what it was they said. even with how scared he was to show you, you knew it would be okay because he was Loki and you loved him with your entire being, you loved everything that made him who he is including the things he feared or hated about himself.

once you convinced him to sit still you hopped into his lap so youd be at eye level with him. he was trying to hide the lost puppy look in his eyes but was drastically failing. it hurt you to see him this afraid of who he is but you trusted it would work itself out in the next few hours.

you placed your hand on his cheek brushing your thumb against the scars and freckles he had once been self conscious of, reminding yourself that if you can get him to love what he saw as flaws then you can probably get him to at least tolerate his other form.

"you know no matter what Ill always love you, right?" your words came out in a whisper, your voice hoarse from the emotions swirling around you.

Loki nodded and "I, you my love" his magic projected itself when he was scared, you could see the green glitter-like flecks in the air, falling like snow. he was still shaking but he seemed less hesitant which was encouraging.

Loki leaned forward resting his forehead against yours and closing his eyes. he pressed his lips to yours in search of comfort. you kissed him back and ran your hand from his cheek down to his neck, rubbing soft circles into his skin.
