Marvel One shots (Teen/Platonic)

Loki x Teen reader- Workload

Y/n is constantly working/studying and not taking care of herself, so Loki does

Everything was jumbled up and Y/n had already lost some of the papers from her assignment file. The deadline was getting nearer and so were the exams. Her routine was completely changed since the last 20 days. No matter what she did, she would still be stressed about school.

Y/n thought about the answers and didn't reach anywhere. She sighed weakly feeling bad that she couldn't remember things properly. In defeat, she closed her book and decided to focus on other subjects...and even in those, she was not being able to remember.

So she turned to complete her loads of remaining assignments and projects. It had been 9 continuous hours of work and when she was finished with one, she jumped to the next project without thinking of taking a break.

Loki had noticed the exhaustion from such workload being put on Y/n. He had told her to take a break 2 hours ago before he left for some work, but she chose not to. And when he arrived back to the compound, he noticed she was still working and also spotted Steve standing in the corner.

"Hey, how's Y/n doing?", Loki asked Steve. Steve sighed and answered, "She's over working herself. Hasn't stopped for 10 hours or so, and she doesn't listen", he replied and crossed his arms. Loki looked at her desk, it was full of papers and books and her eyes looked tired as she was glued to the computer screen.

"I'll talk to her", Loki spoke and walked towards Y/n. She didn't even notice his presence until he put his hand on her shoulder. "Hey Y/n, what are you up to?", he asked in a playful manner. Y/n turned and gave him a fake smile saying, "Oh you know what school is like", she spoke and delved back into the papers.

"Aren't you coming for lunch? It's almost time.", Loki asked as he tried to get her attention but she kept writing. "I..I really can't. There's work pending from... everywhere. I have to do my assignments, make reports for the Med bay, blueprints and scans and a lot more", Y/n blurted out in that one moment she looked at him.

Loki noticed how tired she looked but he knew she wouldn't listen. "When will it be over?", he asked getting more worried. Y/n stopped for a while, checked the papers and answered, "It will just take...a few 15 hours". Loki made a shocked face, she couldn't be seriously saying this.

"15 hours?! Y/n, just stop and take a break. Please", Loki pleaded and took her hand. She looked back at her papers again and sighed. "Ok I will...but I have to complete this one last project. I'll take a break right after ", she explained. Loki still didn't feel right so he asked, "Promise?".

Y/n nodded and held his hand tighter. She turned back to her work as Loki proceeded to where his name called. Looks like he got some work to do himself. He was sent to interrogate a bunch of assassins that were captured and that took a while.

The while turned to hours as they slowly gave out the truth. It was late at night and Loki had almost forgotten about Y/n until he saw a lone form crouching on the table, passed out. He knew it was Y/n, she had fallen asleep while working. She had promised him that she will take a break and here he was.

Loki exhaled and kneeled near her putting his hand on her back. That is when he noticed the warm temperature, she was burning up to extents. Loki frowned when he felt the heat and gently shook her awake. She lifted her face and saw Loki next to her, looking worried.

"Sorry I... couldn't keep track of time.", Y/n mumbled sleepily to which Loki replied, "Come with me, you're having a fever". "But I still have to-", "Y/n, this is not more important then your well-being. Shut up and take my hand", Loki interrupted her. He was already concerned about her doing extra hours and now she was sick too.

Y/n actually stopped speaking and slowly followed him as he took her to her room. He could feel her burning hand in his and also felt her sway a bit. Loki then made her sit on her bed and squeezed her shoulders. "Y/n, it's ok. I'll do the rest of your work. You get under the covers until I bring you some soup alright?", Loki assured.

"Loki... there's too much work. You don't need to do it.", Y/n mumbled with warm breath. She could feel her throat burning and lightly placed her hand on it when she felt uncomfortable. She frowned and cleared her throat. "Darling, you need to take care of yourself. And don't worry... I'll take help of others", he assured her again.

Y/n weakly sighed and smiled. "Now, let's get you something to eat. I'll be back in no time ", Loki repeated as he made her sleep and covered her with a blanket. She immediately closed her eyes and curled up like she was waiting for an eternity to sleep. He placed his hand on her forehead and found that she was still very warm.

Within the next second Loki left for the kitchen and made his special soup. He was done in 5 minutes and made his way directly to Y/n. He entered her room without making any noise and set the soup on the bedside table.

Y/n shifted as she sniffed a flavour in the air. Even in sleep she was able to figure out what it was. "Soup?", Y/n asked as turned to Loki. He smiled and nodded yes. Wasting no time he handed her the bowl and sat by her feet. She felt her lips burn at first but she continued to sip on the 'eternal soup' is what Loki called it.

"This is so good. Thank you Loki", she smiled and sipped further, he smiled back. The moment she finished it, he made the bowl disappear and conjured some pills and water. Y/n's expression fell and she saw the medicine in his hand. "I need you get better", Loki muttered and stretched his hand to her.

She took it unwillingly and threw it in her mouth, gulping them in with a huge amount of water. She srunched her nose at the taste of it. Loki smiled and took the glass from her hand making her lie down again. He tucked her in and stroked her head just like how his mother used to when he was sick.

"Sleep well darling, I'll be right here", Loki mumbled and planted a kiss on her forehead. Y/n was already asleep when he looked back at her. She was still burning up and Loki didn't like the fact that she was given such a huge amount of work. He stood up and conjured her books and work to himself and sat on her study table.

He turned all the other lights dim and only kept the table light on. He had sent some of her files to Steve, Natasha and Bucky and they happily agreed to help. He finished it in a while and compiled everything on her table. Carefully Loki left her room without disturbing her. He caught a last glimpse at her before leaving and smiled.
