Thor slowly went in to hug Loki expecting him to push him off. But surprisingly.. He didn't. They sat there for a little bit. Thor slowly slide back from embracing his hurting brother. He started wiping his tears away on Loki's face while Loki continued to sniffle and breathe heavily.
"Brother. Let me in."
Loki's face was red from embarrassment, crying, and the large amount of wine he consumed.
"I hate you."
Thor was quiet. He slowly helped Loki off the ground. Picked him up bridal style and started carrying him out of the wine cellar. Loki knew he was too weak, drunk, and upset to try and fight his brother so as much as he wanted to he decided it wasn't worth the effort.
Thor took him up to his room and sat him on the bed.
"What's wrong brother?" Thor said with a serious tone.
Loki stared at the floor.
"I want to die." He said simply.
Thor's heart split in two.
"Brother why would you say such a thing??"
"The only people who truly loved me are gone.. And I wronged them." Loki whispered
"DAMNIT BROTHER I LOVE YOU WHY CAN'T YOU SEE THAT!!" Thor yelled
"I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT ME!! YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME LYING TO MY FACE!! YOU DON'T TRUST ME." Loki yelled back
"YOU TRIED TO DESTROY EARTH!! NOT TO MENTION THE OTHER NINE REALMS!!"
Loki sniffled turning his back away from Thor.
"I'm not like that anymore.. I used my pain to fuel my rage but now.. Now I'm just.." Loki slowly stopped talking zoning out into his own head.
"Thor everyone loves you. Everyone feels safe around you. Everyone believes in you. And you can have anyone you want.."
That last part stuck with Thor.
"Loki.. Are you?.. frustrated.. Um how do the humans say this.. Sexually?" Thor's face beamed with pride.
On the other hand Loki's face was bright red.
"N-NO NO THAT'S NOT IT AT ALL!! LOOK JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" Loki said as he tried leaving the room.
Thor of course wouldn't let him leave.
"OH BROTHER THIS IS SO EASY I CAN FIND WONDERFUL MAIDENS THEY'D BE FALLING ALL OVER YOU!" Thor exclaimed
Loki sighed.
"I don't want maidens, Thor."
Thor thought for a while.
"Oh brother is it true? That you really wish for companionship? We can find you that one special girl."
"I DON'T WANT ONE GIRL AND I DON'T WANT MAIDENS!" Loki said with a tone of irritation.
It was quiet and still.
Then Thor finally spoke.
"Brother are you..?"
Loki shot an icy glare at Thor already knowing where he was heading. His face felt hot again.
"Do you like.. Men..?"
"NO I DON'T LIKE.. men.." Loki said with an uneasyness
Thor wasn't an idiot. He could tell his brother was lying.
"Loki.. On earth.. There was such a thing called.. Homo.. Homosexuality.. It was when humans of the opposite sex loved each other and laid together.. It was quite a normal thing.."
Loki didn't say anything.
"Loki I don't care. Loki I want you to feel loved. I want you to be happy." Thor said with a smile.
Loki stared at Thor. And for a second he actually started to smile. Something he hadn't done genuinely in ages.
