(Loki x reader) The Evil One

28: Sick

"Wait, what?!" I cried.

Both Loki and Peter exchanged looks.

When they realized they actually 'exchanged looks' with each other, they suddenly became very interested in my shoes.

"Peter's aunt is here," Tasha responded. "She's wondering where he is."

I gasped. "Oh shit!"

Peter looked into my eyes. "What? What's wrong?" He asked in a panicky voice, wringing his hands.

Loki frowned at my shoes.

"Your aunt May is looking for you," I answered in a tiny voice.

Peter leapt toward me, grabbing my hand. "We've gotta go!"

Loki stopped us. "You'll be too late if you run."

I sighed. "Then what do you suggest, we fly?"

Peter bit back a laugh.

"I could teleport you, but you're being snotty," Loki replied cooly.

"Mr. Loki, please?" Peter pleaded.

I grumbled under my breath and held out a hand.

Loki grabbed it coyly, and I closed my eyes.

I felt the familiar rush of wind, and opened them again.

We were back in the compound. "What's May doing here?"

Tony had been standing right in front of me, and looked extremely shocked when I just appeared.

Peter fell to the floor.

Loki watched him with a dignified smirk.

He looked proud of himself.

He was a jackass.

"Peter?" Tony asked. "What are you doing on my floor?"

Peter rolled onto his back. His face was pale. "Oh nothing," he responded weakly. "Just trying to process the fact that I was just teleported several blocks to the compound. That's all."

Tony gave Loki a glare. "Don't hurt my kid, you hear?"

Loki nodded curtly. "Yes sir."

His response was dripping sarcasm.

It was pooling around his feet for crying out loud.

"Where's May?" I repeated in an irritable fashion.

Tony finally responded. "In the lobby."

I waited for him to go on. He didn't. So I did, "What is she doing here?"

Tony clicked his tongue. "She's here to take Peter back home," he said. "Peter's girlfriend MJ is sick."

Peter leapt off the floor. "Whoa, what?!"

However, all of us were a bit relieved she wasn't here to kick Tony's ass for giving Peter a suit and whatnot.

Tony gave him a simple glare. "Peter, your girlfriend is staying at your house and is sick. Apparently she won't let May give her medicine, so she's resorted to making you do it."

Peter grumble a bit as he followed Tony from the room.

That's it. There goes my bodyguard and my only excuse not to talk to Loki.

"Darling," Loki started. "There's an issue we'd better address."

All this came out as a snarl.
