The Perfect Gift

Bruce

"Perseus and my third anniversary's coming up." Loki explained to Clint, Tony, Pietro, Steve, and I.

We were walking down the busy New York street to help Loki find what he was looking for. Apparently the Norse god already picked out what he was going to get his boyfriend, but wouldn't share, wanting to keep it a surprise. Loki dragged the visiting Hawkeye, below twenty Pietro, bickering Tony and Steve, and best friend me to aid his worries before he bought it. It was quite amusing for the silver tongue tone to be so anxious about buying a simple gift, but the fretting god was also starting to get on some nerves.

Vision, Wanda, Natasha, Thor, and Perseus were hanging out in the tower. Perseus just finished his latest mission from the director and wished to relax. This allowed Loki to wiggle his way out of the building while the team entertained the Guardian. My thoughts were interrupted by the genius himself who snorted loudly at Loki's store choice.

I felt my eyebrow rise up in confusion, a blush forming on my cheeks,"Why are we here, Loki?"

The Norse shook his head in confusion,"This store was chosen by google to hold what I wish to find for Perseus."

"Did you put this on my search history?" Tony demanded, receiving no response in return.

Without waiting for our interference, Loki disappeared inside. We all shared looks before following the god into the store. Loki was already at the front desk conversing with the male who was bluntly checking the trickster out. Said person just ignored his obvious attraction and grew steadily frustrated as the boy evaded his question.

"Sir, can I interest you in any of these materials? They're on clearance and are no trouble putting in, quite pleasurable taking out if I do say so myself." The worker winked flirtatiously, leaning closer to Loki.

"No!" Perseus' boyfriend growled, annoyed,"Just tell me where you keep your vibrators, and I will be on my way."

I flat out chocked on my spit as that word came out of Loki's mouth. Pietro ran face first into Steve's body who had frozen in shock. Tony on the other hand whistled and Clint just bawled out laughing, doubling over from the force of his amusement. The boy on the other hand just frowned mockingly and grabbed Loki's hand to lead him deeper into the store.

"Loki!" I hissed, quickly following,"What are you doing?"

He tilted his head, confused,"What ever do you mean? Perseus is often very tight in his muscles, and my hands get tired pushing into them to coax them to relax. I thought he'd appreciate something to be able to continue like I can't because he does make the loudest appreciation sounds when I do work on him."

"TMI! TMI!" Pietro groaned, shutting his eyes and putting hands on his ears,"I don't want to hear anymore about your sex lives than I need to."

Clint chuckled loudly, very entertained by this situation,"Just buy the toy, I'm sure Perseus won't expect this at all."

"I don't think you should get this for the anniversary though." Steve cut in quickly, quite red in the face,"Maybe Valentines Day."

"No." Tony snorted,"Please get this, and let me be there when you give it to him."

"I'm not sure Loki, but whatever you think is best for the mark of your 3rd year commitment, you do." I told him truthfully.
