What happened? - FrostSpider

Chapter 9: Secrets

Stark ran into the room we where in. His hair in a mess indicating he just woke up "Why are yous out of the hospital?" "We where hungry" Peter whined. He turned to face me "Do you feel weak at all?" I shook my head. I did but I don't like having people worry about me "Loki you should, you don't have nearly enough blood in your system so either Jarvis and Bruce are wrong or your lying" "I don't feel weak" I pushed "But we can go back if your worried" I suggested. He nodded and helped me stand up "Stark, I'm fine, I can walk by myself" "You see kid I don't care if you can or can't" I groaned and he helped me walk to the lift.

I felt another wave of weakness wash over me this time causing me to collapse out of Starks hands "Loki!?" "I'm ok" My voice was even lighter then before and my head was starting to spin. Darkness

Peter's POV

Loki just collapsed out of Starks hands. "Loki!?" Tony half yelled panicking. Loki muttered something before falling unconscious. I ran over to him. "We need to get him back to the hospital wing" I picked him up. I was panicking. Why can't he just tell us his feelings. I thought he was staring to open up but no. Though I still count it as progress

I carried him into the lift. His eyes fluttered open "Peter?" He was still half asleep "Loki, shh, sleep" He cuddled into me "I'm sorry Peter" His eyes where starting to droop. "It's fine just sleep" He nodded into my shoulders and a minute later I could hear a light gentle snore.

"Why did you tell him to go back to sleep?" Tony asked "He was tired Mr Stark. He needs sleep" He nodded.

We put him on the bed and Stark reattached the blood bad to him. We sat their waiting for him to wake up for 15 minutes before he finally woke up.

Loki's POV

I was tightly in the corner of the cell. I heared someone walking into my cell and quickly covered myself in an illusion to make me invisible. I did it in a panic and I knew I would live to regret it. My vision was blurred from the sudden light though I could still recognize a figure standing in-front of me as Odin. "Stop your hiding Jotun runt" He looked around a bit more "SHOW YOURSELF" He shouted. I quickly removed the illusion. I was scared, more scared then I had ever been before. He stomped up to me grabbing my neck "You used magic" He snarled "You hid like the coward you are" I was holding back tears as I tried to get oxygen in my lungs. "Go on cry little Jotun, show me how weak you are" I didn't cry, I couldn't cry, not in-front of him again. He let go of my neck and started beating me to the ground. Each hit harder and more ferice then the last. I curled up into a ball. As if that would help me. While he beated me for what felt like an etarnity.

I woke up startled not recognizing my surroundings. I saw Peter walking towards me and I started backing away "I'm sorry I hid. Please don't hurt me" I don't know why I thought he would beat me but I did and I was panicking a lot "Loki..." He put his hand on my shoulder and I flinched away expecting him to hit me. "I won't hurt you" He reassures me but I was hardly listening. I was focusing on catching my breath. He put his hand on my face. A tensed at first but relaxed at the familiar gentle touch "I'm s-sorry" "It's fine but if you keep hiding it will end up killing you" I nodded and held the back of his hand rubbing it with my thumbs while it was still on face.

"Why are you so secretive about your feelings anyway?" My head snapped up at the different voice in the room. I guess we aren't along. It was Stark "I-I wasn't allowed to show my feelings cause my father said that would make me weak and that nobody cares enough about me to worry about my feelings anyway". Stark muttered something under his breath which I couldn't make out but he looked angry and I thought he was angry at me. I shifted uncomfortable on the table I was on when Peter put his hand on the back of neck turning my head to face him "We care about you Loki, I care about you, please tell us if you feel something wrong" I nodded. He pulled my head forward so we where an inch apart. We leaned are heads forward so are heads where touching and I wrapped my hand around the back of his neck. "Thank you Peter".

We pulled about and Peter started giggling to himself. I tilted my head in confusion. "I think this has been the most eventful and scary nights of my life" I thought about everything that had happened that night. Though some of it was blurred I could still remember a bit of it. I smiled "Yes it has" I agreed.

"Kid you have to sleep so can here with Loki or in your room since you are still injured just incase you forgot and need rest" Stark asked indicating his question to Peter. Peter groaned "I choose here" Stark nodded and left us in the room by ourself.

"So are we in an agreement on not sleeping" I nodded. The last thing I wanted to do is enter the world of sleep. We couldn't think of anything to talk about so we just lay down facing the celing holding hands. I started humming a song to myself that my Amma use to sing to me at night when I couldn't sleep about aventures. We lay their for what felt like hours. I turned to Pete an noticed he was asleep. Did he fall asleep to the tune I was humming? Was he secretly tired the hole time? Oh god I overthink to much. I sat up whispering "Good night Peter" I decided to try and search through my fractured memory which just led to more questions flooding my head.
