Give me Love

27. Stop!

rd POV*

The moon was already in the sky, and the cool chill of the night had spread through the air. Almost the entire compound was quiet or asleep, with the exception of Steve. The super soldier had only just arrived at the city, and although he was absolutely exhausted, he couldn't go to bed yet. He had to give his report to the rest of the Avengers before he had any hope of resting... although a five minute break before the meeting wouldn't hurt anyone. He found the room their meeting was to be held in - - Tony due to all his meticulous scheduling was already there - - and fell back onto a free couch with a heavy sigh; his muscles relaxing for the first time in almost the entire day.

"Aw... you alright honey?" Tony sang, fake concern lacing his words. Steve glanced over to the billionaire; not once did his attention move from the book in his hands.

"Just because Bruce is taken, doesn't mean you can start that with me Stark..." Steve warned.

"But sweetie-" he whined.

"No," he growled. Clint, Natasha and even Thor began to snicker as they entered the room.

"They're at it again..." Clint sighed as he took a seat next to Nat. "You're worse than a married couple..."

"Like you would know Legolas." Tony hit back. Natasha and Clint grinned at each other for a moment,

"Leave Steve alone, he's had a big day," Nat said with a pout.

"Yeah, thanks for volunteering me for that by the way," Steve said.

"No problem," she replied with a wide grin. The four continued to talk amongst themselves, only Thor chose to stay silent as he glanced around the room intently. Steve was sprawled out on the long couch, Tony sat atop a bench with a book in his hands, and Clint and Natasha were sharing a double seat... Where was (Name)?

"Has anyone seen (Name)?" he was slightly more than worried... Why had he kissed her?! Why had he chosen now, of all times, to tell her what he felt? He suppressed his need so sigh. He had the worst timing... Natasha opened her mouth to reply, but decided that the whole truth probably wasn't the best option in this circumstance...

"I think she went to bed... she wasn't feeling well..." Immediately Thor felt like throwing up. Was she truly feeling sick, or was she just disgusted with what he had done? She'd been forced into the bed of so many men in the past few months, and he was no better... He had forced himself on her, and probably caused everything to resurface...

"Uh... Natasha... We have a slight issue..." Bruce said nervously from the doorway.

"What is it?" she asked while standing. The scientist hesitated. He didn't want everyone to know what they had planned... but he had to tell them...

"The audio device in (Name)'s communicator was activated..." Nat froze,

"That means..." he nodded,

"Loki's with (Name)..." Bruce finally said; causing everyone in the room to fall silent.

"What? What did you say?" Thor growled. Immediately Nat stepped between the Asgardian and Bruce, not wanting a Code Green to erupt in the house or anywhere close to the compound.

"We were trying to help her get back to him; it was to throw off his interest in the compounds... Just in case something went wrong, we gave her a device to call us in, it also transmits anything that is said when Loki's voice is heard." she redhead explained.

"You intended to send her back to him?! Have you lost your mind?!" Thor yelled as he quickly ran off towards her room.

Thor burst into the room; the only thought in his mind was to get Loki away from (Name). When his eyes landed on Loki, a growl formed in his throat.

"(Name)!" he called while stretching his hand out, calling forth his hammer.

"Th-Thor," she breathed out softly. The raven haired man quickly shielded her with his body, and readied to block any advance Thor made.

"Have you not taken enough from her?!" The God of Thunder yelled as Mjolnir entered his hand and he swung at Loki. Realising there was no point in trying to block such a swing, Loki wrapped his arms around (Name), and teleported the two of them outside of the city limits. Lightning and thunder cracked and rumbled in the night sky. Clearly Thor was pissed.
