Steve woke up and the room was completely shrouded in darkness. Loki was still curled up against him, with his head resting on the captain's chest. He smiled and gently ran his hands through the black hair.
Lovers.
That's what they were.
That's what they had agreed upon.
Steve's heart felt lighter than it was when he first woke up that morning. He was happy. Who would have ever thought that the god in his arms would make him happy. The god who tried to take over and destroy his world made him happy.
He kissed the top of the sleeping god's head as he gently rubbed the fallen prince's back.
A few moments later the god was rubbing his eyes before blinking up at the blond sleepily. "Mornin'."
Steve smiled. "Morning, love. Sleep well?"
He nodded before closing his eyes again. "I did, but I think I will sleep some more if that is okay with you, my darling Captain."
"Of course, Kitten. Do you mind if I get up to go for a run?"
Loki hummed before opening his eyes a bit and looking at the captain. "That would require you to get up and me to move, yes?"
He chuckled, "Just a bit, yes."
The prince groaned and closed his eyes yet again. "Then yes, I do mind. I am quite comfortable like this and do not wish to move. You make a very comfy pillow."
Steve chuckled and kissed the god's head again. "Alright, then I won't go for a run."
"Mmm, maybe later, love. For now, let us sleep."
It didn't take long before Loki was asleep again, soft snores coming from him every once in awhile. Steve laid there listening to the god breathe as he rubbed his back. He was happy. He would be happy if he never had to get up again.
Unfortunately, life had a bad habit of getting in the way.
Steve's phone starting ringing from beside the bed where it laid on the floor still in his pants pocket from earlier. He didn't want to disturb the god, but he needed to answer his phone. Loki groaned in protest as he was disturbed as the captain grabbed his phone.
It was Tony.
Steve sighed and answered his phone, "What, Tony?"
"Well someone is grumpy this morning. Did Reindeer Games not come back last night?"
Shit. That's right, he was supposed to let Tony know about that. Steve rubbed his hand over his face as he responded, "Yes, he did. Sorry. We got caught up last night after he came back."
"Did you two kiss and makeup?"
"Is there a reason you were calling me, Tony?"
"Yes, I just wanted to make sure everything was okay. When you never called me to let me know he was back I was beginning to worry about whether or not we were gonna have to deal with another alien invasion. I don't feel like sending another nuclear bomb into a giant wormhole in the sky again."
"Yes, well-"
Steve was cut off as the phone was taken from his grasp and Loki put the phone to his ear. "Look, Stark, I am home. I am also sleeping and you woke me up. Now, considering we had a good time the other night I will overlook this slight inconvenience if you would shut up. Now I am going back to bed and Steve is going with me. Goodnight."
