Her Babysitter

Chapter 4: Rules

(A/N: Sorry for the late update. I deleted all my back-up files for this and I'm really sorry. I promise to update more often. If often even comes.)

Your room was completely empty all of the stuff were placed at the hall. Loki entered the room confused to see a lot of newspaper on the floor. A few paint canisters, some paint brush, and two pain rollers. "What is this? Why's the furniture outside?" he asks. You smiled and grabbed that roll-y thing since you have a pair and handed him one.

"I asks Steve to take it outside for a moment. I still have a score to settle with this (Least favorite color) room. We really need to redecorate our room."

"We? Our?"

"Yup, Tony won't let you have your own room for some reasons. Go get a green paint can, I know it's your favorite color." you said while pouring F/C paint on a tray and starting to paint the door.

"How'd you know I like the color green?" he asks

"Your clothes gave it away. Say I haven't seen you change your outfit? Is it a thing in Asgard?" you kept talking while he just stood there watching you. You finally finished painting the door and went to the middle of the room and started painting one black line breaking the room in half. (Not literally).

"Now, what are you doing?" Loki asks while stopping you from continuing. You stood and faced him.

"Look, Loki. Natasha told me about you. About what you did. Who you are."

*Loki's P.O.V.*

She's afraid of me. I knew it! What's the point in thinking she'll be different. Just because she's different from the others, just because she's more enthusiastic... I shouldn't have hoped she'll see me differently.

Now, she's looking at me with concern. How I hate it when she's nice. I really do. "Anyway, I don't care about it. I don't care about your past because who am I to judge, right?"

W-what did she just say? She don't care? What kind of girl is this? She's too good to be true. What if she isn't? That would explain everything.

How come those words stay stuck on my mind?.. Hold on... How come I'm overthinking such petty mortal words of reassurance? Obviously, I should not therefore, I will not care.

I look at her, she wasn't smiling but her eyes turned to pink. How it warms me.

Oh, no. She's smiling again. The smile she mostly use when she's about to make mischief.

*Your P.O.V.*

"But!" you yelled raising your index finger in the air with your other arm at your back. "Notice the 'but' there." you giggled when you thought it was some sort of pun.

"Since we're sharing this room, I'm bordering it. This is my space." you pointed to the side where you are standing. "That is yours. Got it? Great!" You were about to go back to your business when Loki pulled your other arm.

"Woah! Woah! Woah!" he said. Your foot is still on the air and your still facing the door and Loki was behind you so you bend your head down to see him in an upside-down view. "How come you have the door?"

You put your foot down and turned your body around to stand properly. "Because, you can teleport and I can't. Oh! I almost forgot, since we're bordering the room we do not step on each other's turf without their permission or else there's a punishment."

"For a mortal, you're using your mind very efficiently. Now, tell me about this punishment."

"Okay, but before punishments, let's first have a rule." you sat down on the floor and Indian seat. "Here, let me suggest one. I don't want to be bothered when I'm reading or when my headset is on my head."

"I like that rule just take the last part out. What's the punishment?" Boy, Loki sure likes punishments.

"Depends. How about they do what the others want the other to do? Sounds good?" you asks.

"Very. Now, I might suggest one of my rules. You won't go anywhere without telling me." he said flashing his famous grin sending shivers down your spine. Settling it aside you frown and gave him that intent look that cause his grin to vanish.

"As if! What do you think I am? Your prisoner?" you asks trying to intimidate him but once again failed. When I wish I had more confidence! Urgh! This guy's too stubborn! "Fine! If that's what you want then I'm calling you nanny."

"As always, how childish can you be Y/N?" he asks. Childish? Oh, wow! Well, it felt great from someone who threw a tantrum against his big brother!

"Do not say that again." Loki's commanding voice made your heart race. He sighed seeing how terrified you've become. "I'm sorry. I'll go to my side of this room."

Was that Loki? If you're looking at my head again Loki, I swear. I will imagine it again and we will both be scarred! Also, Who are you and what have you done to the real Loki!

"I swear, Y/N. You may not talk but you're still loud. Very loud." he commented. You just smiled.
