Another Trickster

Amber's POV:

Do I actually have feelings for him? I shook my head to rid the thoughts. I didn't have anything to say so I walked out of the room. I wonder where Loki went. No. Do not go down that path. Thinking about him is not a good thing. I can't help it though. I need to know where he went. He left the room in a hurry and he was crying. He never cried. The last time that he cried, we were kids. I shook my head and focused on connecting with him. I need to know where he is. I tried to push my way into his head but reached nothing. Why is he blocking me out?

Loki? I called out in my head. Silence. Where did he go? I made my way towards the room Tony gave me just to stop when I heard sniffles. I looked around to see if anyone was around but saw no one. I looked at my door and opened it. I walked in and looked around just to see Loki sitting in the corner of my room. He looked so vulnerable. He looked at me with his bloodshot eyes and my heart broke. The way he looked at me is the way that I used to look at my parents. "Loki?" I asked not expecting a response.

"Amber? I'm sorry about what they did to you." Does he think that its his fault? "Loki it isn't your fault. You had nothing to do with it." My heart kept breaking with every response he said. "But I should've kept looking for you. I could've saved you." I shook my head. "Loki. They kept me hidden. You wouldn't have been able to do anything Loki." I said in a soft voice. I hate seeing him like this. I saw him about to say something and had a feeling that I knew exactly what he was going to say. "I still could've done something to help bring you back here faster." I went down to his level and made him look at me.

"I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere. I'm okay Loki." He looked deep into my eyes. He started to lean in while looking at me and my lips. I felt his lips meet mine and closed my eyes. The raw emotion I felt in the kiss took me away from where we were situated. Wait. Stop. I can't do this. I pushed away from him and ran out of the room.

Loki's POV:

I kissed her. I've waited so long to do this. She pushed away from me and I looked at her. Her eyes held so many emotions. She looked scared as she ran out of the room. Did I do something wrong? No. There's no way that I did something wrong. She would've said something if I did. Theres still that small part that thinks that I did something wrong. Maybe I should find her and explain why I kissed her.

I walked out of the room I was in and ran straight into Natasha. "Why the rush Loki?" I looked around for an escape but found none. "Did you see where Amber went?" I looked at her and watched as her face dropped. "She went to find you. Did she find you?" I rubbed the back of my neck. "She found me but I think I scared her off." I hope she doesn't ask any questions but do you really think I'm that lucky?

"What do you mean?" Oh here we go. "I-"

Amber's POV:

Why did I run? I thought him kissing me is what I wanted. Stupid me. After I ran out of the room, I left the compound. I can't be in there anymore. I need air. I need to escape. I can't face Loki after that. I continued running till I had no idea where I was. Once again, not the smartest idea but I wasn't thinking. I looked around at my surroundings but nothing seemed familiar. Why am I so stupid? I could've locked myself in a room but I just had to leave and get myself lost.

I leaned against a tree and tried to breathe normally. I need to calm down and think. I closed my eyes and slowly started to gain my breath back. When I finally was able to breathe, I opened my eyes and stood up. I felt eyes on me and scanned the area. Where am I? I was surrounded by trees. How far did I run? I was snapped out of my thoughts when a branch snapped. I turned to look at the direction the sound came from and saw a man standing there.

"Dad?"

A/N: I'm back. Sorry about not posting anything. I've been dealing with a lot recently and haven't had time to work on anything. I'm slowly getting my motivation back and working on this story along with a few others. I don't have a schedule on when I'll post but I'll try my best to upload a part every week.
