|| One Shots || Loki Laufeyson

a comeback

A year. One entire year has passed since that day. A one, lonesome, full of sadness year has passed since you lost him.
You were standing by a window in your flat, watching the sun disappear under the New York city, watching people on the streets. They were so peaceful, free from mourn, sadness you felt today. They were just casually walking down the streets, ensure that they safe...
You tightened grip on Loki's dagger, which he gave you before that fight... his last fight.
You closed your eyes and reminded him... or at least you tried. It was a year and you started to slowly forget his face, his voice, scent...
"Do not mourn my love." You suddenly heard a voice right behind you. You turned around and... no. That couldn't be true...
"I'm back, darling, do not cry." Said Loki.
Loki.
He was standing here. Right in front of you. Loki himself, your beloved himself.
No no no no no no no, it couldn't be true, he's dead, he can't be here...
"That couldn't be true..." you whispered unconsciously.
"But here I am, darling." He smiled.
And suddenly you knew. Oh, stupid you, you nearly let yourself fool you.
"Who are you, liar? Loki is dead, you won't fool me that easy" you hissed, pointing a dagger at him. It was obvious for you that it must have been some kind of trick, there were a lot of peoples and aliens in the galaxy who wanted to get to you.
"Hey, hey, calm down, (y/n). I didn't expect such a reaction." He smirked and stepped forward you. Your Movements were quick, and in a second you jumped to him, sprained one of his hands and put a dagger to his neck.
"Who are you? Take off that stupid illusion." You yelled. No one will be taking his appearance to fool you like this.
"( Y/N)... It's me. I'm back." He said softly, raising his free hand to show you that he doesn't have hostile purposes. "I know you might not believe me, I've been gone too long but..."
"Stop this shit, now. Loki is dead, and you just a trickster. One more lie and I won't hesitate." You slightly pushed dagger into his neck.
"My love, believe me! I am here! I am alive! I faked my death" He panicked a bit, but you still didn't accept that answer.
"He died in my arms!" You almost shouted, starting to lose control. "I was carrying his dead body! Now, again. Who. Are. You?!"
"Alright then, my love, I'll prove it to you." He whispered as he realized you're not able to trust his words. Who would anyway? He didn't want to do it to you, but he knew there was no other way.
Suddenly, before you manage to stop him, he placed his hand on your forehead, gently pushing your head back.
And... you knew. You saw multiple blinks of memories, a story, you felt those feelings. He told you everything that happened in one touch. No, no, that can't be true... all of that was... this was... you felt HIS presence.
" ..Loki?" you whispered. He slowly took off his hand, and you looked at him. "Loki."
He smiled a bit sadly.
"That's me, my love." He nodded. "I'm back."
You were staring at him for a long moment, not believing what just happened. It was a whole year... and now he was standing there. You took off the dagger from his neck and freed his hand you've been spraining. This memories, feelings he just showed you... that must be him.
"No... no, it can't be true..." you murmured. "You died... a year ago. No, it can't be..."
"But it is, fortunately." He smiled and reached out his hand to you. "I'm alive, darling."
"Fortunately?! Are you fucking kidding me?!" You yelled as you felt tears in your eyes. "Why... how...?! All this time..."
"(Y/N)..." He said anxiously. He didn't expect such a reaction. He was expecting to saw a smile, tears, laugh but not... anger and... disappointment?
"You fucking bastard! You're... you are... what were you thinking?! You came back as nothing happened, standing here casually after you left me?! For a fucking year!" You started to cry, not sure it was for anger or joy. "You are telling me that you alive, you appear in my flat after you let me believe that I lost you permanently?! After you make me watch you dying?! You d-died in m-my arms! I-I... can't believe... how could you?!" You weren't even trying to hold all those tears, anger, sadness that you were holding on all this year.
"(Y/N), I am sorry... I..."
"How dare you?! How dare you leaving me like that?! Why you haven't told me that you're alive?! Why you haven't given me a sign, anything that would let me have hope?! Did you know what have I felt?!" You were crying now, sobbing, and started to shake from emotions. You couldn't even saw him through your tears.
"ONE WORD!! Just the one! Just a little glimpse, a signal, ANYTHING would be enough to assure me that you are alive!! Why you didn't... why you..."
"(Y/N)... I wish I could. I tried so many times" He said softly, with guilt in his voice and he hugged you tightly. You rest your head on his shoulder, starting to cry even harder. He was here. After all this time. He was here, you smelled his scent, you felt his warmth and you couldn't believe. Your Loki was here.
"Why did you do that to me?" You sobbed. "Why did you let me watch you dying?"
"It was necessary, I'm sorry darling, my love. No one should know the truth. I had a mission."
"What fucking mission?!"
"That doesn't matter now, my dearest. I'm here now, I'm here with you and I'm not going anywhere."
