The Spark That Never Dies Part: One

Chapter Eight

"Spin the bottle?" Pepper asked him, looking disappointed, but not at all surprised, "Really, Tony?"

"It goes with the theme!" He defended, looking to Peter, "Right, Parker?"

"Uh..." He trailed off nervously, looking between them.

"I'm in." Sam shrugged, going to the bar for an empty bottle everyone could use.

"I think I'm gonna sit this one out." Peter laughed anxiously.

"Wise choice." You smirked, joining the slowly forming circle started by Sam in the middle of the room after he moved a couple of couches with the help of Bucky.

"Sorry, I'm late." An eerie voice called out into the room, snapping everyone's attentions to the entryway.

"Loki!" Thor cheered, going over to his brother while everyone got tense except for you and Peter.

"What's reindeer games doing here?" Tony asked, raising his eyebrows and double checking his bracelets were on his wrists in case he needed a quick change.

"I invited him!" Thor smiled widely, "Why? Is he not welcomed here?"

"He did flatten the city." Steve reminded him.

"Nice shirt." Loki smirked at him and Steve looked down, suddenly feeling self-conscience.

"You look a little overdressed," You pointed out when nobody spoke for an uncomfortably long amount of time, "Loki, was it?"

"Yes," He peered at you curiously, walking over, and both Nat and Bucky tensed more, practically standing in his way so he didn't get too close, "And who might you be?"

"Y/n," You smirked, "And guys it's okay, he doesn't plan on killing anybody tonight. He's purely here for the party, which is probably surprising to a lot of you."

"You read minds." He thought out loud, changing his appearance without batting an eye into a green long-sleeved shirt and black pajama pants, while you nodded, "Intriguing."

"We're not actually letting him stay, right Tony?" Natasha asked and then mumbled, "Or live."

"Oh, come on, now!" Thor leaned back with his arms crossed, "He means no harm, the magician said it herself!"

"She's not a magician," Tony shook his head and then eyed Loki, "But if rock of ages over here doesn't try anything, I think we can let him join. I'm a little too drunk to start a fight."

"What a warm invitation, Stark." Loki smirked.

"Yeah, yeah, shut up, I'm still pissed about my city." Tony grumbled, plopping down next to you with Scott on the other side of him.

Everyone sat down, creating a massive circle that included, Loki, Nat, Steve, Bucky, Tony, Carol, Vision, Maria, Wanda, Thor, Clint, Sam, Bruce, Scott, Pietro, and you.

"The ratio of guys to girls is just astounding," You laughed, emphasizing the word while you placed the bottle in the middle, "Hope none of you boys are opposed to a little man on man action."

"As long as it's not my brother." Loki mumbled.

"Spin, lady Y/n!" Thor shouted with a smile, and you did just that, landing on the god of mischief himself.

"That was fast." Loki remarked proudly, and you shook your head, meeting him in the middle to kiss him on the cheek, "So, she's a lady after all."

"Alright." Natasha grumbled, "Spin it, asshole."

The game went on, making some people get a little uncomfortable, but you had a blast laughing at the random pairs. Like when Loki landed on Bruce or Tony got Thor. Most weren't brave enough to go for the lips, but it didn't surprise you when Pietro went for it every time.
