In-between Love Sweat And Tears (Loki Short Stories And One Shots)

Birthday Bondage (18+ bdsm+)

Today, something felt off to you. Nothing bad, at least you hoped not. And it was all because of Loki.
He has been pampering you since this morning, and it was sweet, but it was so weird. And mainly because he was avoiding anything dealing with actual sex. It was funny at first, but now you were becoming a bit frustrated. It was like he was limiting you, or teasing you beyond belief. Cuddles and kisses were fine, but as soon as you were in the mood he would find something else to do.
Right now you were laying on the roof of the tower in a careful place and on a picnic blanket, listening to your music with new headphones that you had been given, as Loki didn't want you to 'worry about the chores'. It had already been a little over three hours since he had basically kicked you out, and you didn't know what else to do. Sighing slowly, you folded your hands over your lap and watched the clouds passing by. Today was a bit warm, but the wind coming through felt really nice, so maybe he had wanted you to really enjoy some peace? But... You wanted him here, too... Why couldn't he listen to music with you, and enjoy the clouds that were passing too? No, maybe that's why he was keeping you out here, you were too clingy to him. That had to be it. When was the last time you weren't against him for a full day? Like, when you first met.
Rubbing your head, you grumbled a bit at yourself. "I've fallen into the clingy girlfriend class. I do not need to do that... I definitely don't want to up that tier and go overboard into like... Timid yandere." You reached over and grabbed the cow plush that Loki had won for you a month ago, holding it over your face some. "We don't need to become the dreaded girlfriend that causes trouble, right Nuka?" You softly shook the cow so that it looked like it was saying no. "No we do not. We must be level headed and stay smart enough to know where we cross the line, Y/N."
You realize that you're acting childish, your cheeks turning red with embarrassment before you hug Nuka to your chest. "Okay, that's the first sign of borderline crazy.." You sigh, closing your eyes before you feel your earphones being taken out gently. "You truly are odd, but I still love you and all of your quirkiness. But what is a yandere?" Feeling your head get lifted up gently before resting in a cool lap, you open your eyes back up to find Loki staring down at you. "U-Um.. it's.. it's a tier for super stalkers so obsessed with a person that they usually end up murdering friends and family of the one they supposedly love. And that person could have no idea who they are and end up being locked away or killed themselves..." "Oh, quite the level of love and obsession. But I doubt that you're that insane." You smile shyly, reaching up and rubbing his hand softly. "I-Im glad... But.. am I too clingy to you, Loki?" You ask. "Not at all. If anything, I want you to cling more and stay mine forever." Your cheeks heat up as he leans his head down and kisses your lips softly for a moment, sitting back afterwards. "Then.. is today just like a resistance day, or something?" "Somewhat. But I want you to know how much I love you without needing to have sex. I can't have you be so sore every single day, you'd lose the ability to walk." You covered your face with Nuka, deep red. "I... I didn't know that we had that much sex... A-And it's literally been almost a full day, so we aren't that... I-i mean it doesn't feel like.."
Chuckling, Loki starts to help you up to your feet, kissing you again softly as he takes Nuka and your music player. "Let's head back inside." Nodding, you follow Loki back into the tower, and get hit with the most amazing smells. It was so clean and fresh, with sweet incense to boost, you felt yourself becoming warm and relaxed. "W-whoa.. I.. how did you even make it smell so good?" "This is an everyday thing on Asgard. At least in my chambers." You look at him shyly, smiling. "You could really make a lot of money just by making this scent into a candle, Loki. Well, not this much, maybe half.." You mumble, not wanting others to steal this scent that Loki had personally forged. Grinning, Loki kisses your cheek and leads you into the kitchen, where you notice a really nice dinner. "Y-you cooked, too?" "I think I did good for this Shepard's Pie thing. That angry chef you like so much tends to make this quite often, so I gave it a try. What do you think?" "Loki.. I can't eat this... It looks.. well.. Godly." Golden mashed potatoes, simmering meat, and vibrant colors from the vegetables used. And the smell alone was utterly mouthwatering.You wanted to devour it so badly. "It's not even messy, it looks too amazing... Loki, I don't want to mess your food up." You mumble. "A meal is meant to be enjoyed, darling. It'd be a waste if you just stared at it." Loki has you sit down, and you watch him shyly as he serves you. "Can.. can I ask why you're really pampering me?" "That's rhetorical, my love." You pout a bit as he avoids saying the real reason, but you don't get time to think it over as he ushers you to try the food.
Fucking. Masterpiece. No, even better than a masterpiece! How did he even get it so well with the seasonings you had?
You held your cheeks a bit as you felt it all melting together in your mouth, and even though he had made it a bit spicy, it was still so delicious. Loki didn't need any confirmation from you as he was enjoying watching you eat his home cooked meal, and poured a chilled glass of wine for you to drink. You eyed the wine as you saw the bottle, and realized that it was something much more expensive than you'd ever spend on even a cheap wine. "Loki, can I ask where-" "-No~. Just enjoy yourself, my love." You carefully pick up the wine and sip it, enjoying how well it went with the food. You didn't even know that being fancy like this was so good, especially thanks to Loki. But it made you suspicious. He was planning something, for sure, but what?
After enjoying dinner, Loki had you close your eyes as he cleared the table. "No peeking." "I-Im not, Loki." You mumble, keeping your eyes shut tight. You can hear him flick the lights off, and struggle to obey his wishes as he's shuffling around in the kitchen. A soft clinking is heard in front of you, and you feel him plant a kiss on the top of your head. "Now you can open them, Y/N."
As you do, you're met with a lovely sight. A birthday cake, covered in buttercream frosting with milk chocolate piped frosting on the edges, and two candles on the top depicting your age. "Happy Birthday, Y/N." You had forgotten. It was your own birthday and you had forgotten. It all made sense now, why he was pampering you so much and working so hard today. Tears welled up in your eyes as you stare down at the cake, and you ball your fists on your knees. Rubbing your shoulders softly, Loki watches you in concern. "Do you not like it? We don't do this Midgardian tradition on Asgard, but I thought that you'd-" "It's... It's amazing, Loki.. I.. I forgot it was my birthday today, I never even bothered with celebrating it before.." You feel tears hit the back of your hands, and you go to cover your face. "I-im sorry. It's so beautiful and I.. I don't mean to ruin the mood..." You tell him. Loki gently grabs your hands, and realizes that you're smiling despite the tears coming down your cheeks. "You aren't ruining the mood, Y/N. You do so much for everyone else, and for me, so I wanted to make sure you knew how much I love you, and appreciate everything you've done for me. You have saved me from the life I once lived, alone and angry at everyone who has dared to tread on me. I will never trade this life, not even for the throne unless I can have you reign beside me as my queen. Even if all of the nine realms were to collapse, I would only wish to be by your side until the very end." This only makes more tears erupt from your eyes, but all you feel is happiness and love.
After wiping away your tears and many many kisses, you enjoy the birthday cake you share with Loki. You didn't even make a wish, because you felt as though you didn't need to wish for anything more. Loki was all you needed. However, the night had yet to end. After cleaning up the kitchen you found yourself alone in the lounge. Loki was still holding you back from having sex with him, and it was eating away at you, until you were let back into the bedroom.
Real rose petals everywhere on the bed, with a bouquet of them laying in front of a large white gift bag. You sit on the edge of the bed carefully, smiling as you pick up the bouquet. Holding them in your lap, you look at Loki for permission to open the bag, and he nods with an innocent smile. Reaching into the bag, you become confused at the first thing you feel, and bring out a bunch of soft ropes already tied together in a specific way. "Uh... Are you planning a camping trip, Loki?" You ask, but Loki's innocent smile has turned into a Mischievous smirk. "Oh, not at all my dear."
