The Healer (LokiXReader)

The First Session

your POV 

i loved my library. I spent hours reading, almost as many hours as i spent watching TV or doing science. So, Steve and i were very used to going to the library and reading in comfortable silence for hours, and sometimes Bucky or Bruce would join us but we didn't mind. today though, i was alone as i studied books on how to help Loki. i still thought it crazy that i was supposed to be the one to help him, yet at the same time i was extremely enticed. i know it sounds crazy but how many people can say they get to study a GOD? This was meant to be our first session and i was baffled at the idea of him actually talking to me, but before i could recollect my thoughts i heard a knock on the door. 

" Come in!" i yelled, expecting Uncle T or Clint with some crazy plan for a prank but instead an angry Loki walked in. I glanced at my watch to see that it was already 8 p.m. which is the time i asked Loki to come talk to me because i worked best at night. Except i didn't work best when the patient was Loki and i looked like a mess! My h/l, h/c hair was a mess of an up-do to keep the hair out of my face, my clothes were sweatpants and an old f/b (favorite band) shirt, with no shoes. i was positive my face was sunk in and tired as well. Yet, i watched as he just walked over and sat down on the beanbag chair. 

" so what exactly are you going to do, quim?" He asked and i watched the smirk grow on his lips as i rolled my eyes. i took a deep breath and put away my books while trying to keep myself from starring at him -- not because i am creepy but because i like studying people and i didn't see how he was related to Thor. "I thought you might be different from the way Thor talked of you, but i see that you are just like everyone else in this world," i swear i heard the pain in his voice as he said this. I whipped around and looked at him. 

" what? i have no idea what you are talking about?" i shot back at him

" you don't think i am as amazing as my brother, no one does..." he whispered the last part but i heard it. i heard and saw all i needed to know, at least in that moment. 

" ah, i see. You are stuck in the shadow of a sibling. you shouldn't care though, i mean Thor is amazing but I know that even the most unnoticeable people get attention," i said it, and it was the truth. I wasn't gonna let him know this but i was very unnoticeable. 

" you truly think you aren't noticed when you walk in a room?" when he said this i turned and starred right into his eyes. 

" i have no idea what you mean?" 

" Oh come ON! i have never seen the Avengers seem as happy as they were when you were in the same room as them. Not only that but you are not an ugly creature..." he whispered the last part once again but i felt the tint of red spread on my cheeks. no one had told me that in a very long time, if ever. i smiled at him. 

" thank you, Loki. i guess you aren't evil but we are here to help you not me," he smirked once again at my statement and i was really close to smacking him. " So what was it like, back on Asgard?" i Asked not knowing if he was actually going to answer me or just sit there and sulk. Then though, he looked at me and smiled but he quickly got rid of it. 

"Asgard was extremely beautiful, especially the women!" He said it in thick lustful voice, yet i couldn't believe it. I couldn't see this raven haired boy as such a man... i couldn't see him as the type to sleep around. " Ah yes, but i was. I made women swoon with my bad-boy charms! And though i had those sweet women and of course my lovely mother and the amazing views of the castle, but Asgard was also Hell." His eyes were deceiving his voice and words. He had a broken look in his eyes, and it gave me an odd urge. 

" Well we here at the Avengers are different! I promise to make this world a non-hell for you!" I smiled brightly at him, but he rolled his eyes. I blushed, my words weren't thought through. God what an idiot i am... couldn't i have said something more normal. " But don't think i am gonna go easy on you when it comes to training, i'm not something you just push around. Just as a fair warning..." I smirked but he looked at me and it went away.
