Your eyes blinked open, it was dark.
You blinked again as you lifted your head, the fire had gone out and so had the candles, it was left dark..
You sat up, untucking your knees from your chest, as you looked around. Loki's helmet was still here but Loki wasn't, you didn't know why you were disappointed, you knew he wasn't going to carry you to your bed or something..
You just thought he would stay.. The room was dark and there was only a beam of moonlight streaming through the small circular window that was half open. You yawned and stretched quietly as you stood up to the cold wooden floor of the library.
'What time is it?' You thought as you let your eyes drift around the library, it was big, parts of it was just bare darkness of wear the moonlight couldn't get to, you shivered- waiting for a creature to come in to pull you away, you didn't know and didn't want to know how far back it went.
Quietly, you stepped over to his desk and traced the helmet with your finger tips, you picked it up thinking that Loki had forgotten it, when he left. The golden helmet was heavy as you remembered, you held it in your hands as you stepped out the library, the very few people who were awake looked at you, some with glaring eyes and gasps, some with quiet eyes but whispers.
You were holding the Princes helmet like it was your own, you darted your eyes away and looked to the floor.
You took deep breathes of the midnight air as you held the helmet tightly, not wanting to drop it.
You made your way to Loki's chamber hoping he would be in there, so you could return his helmet to him.
It was a long walk to his chamber where you remembered, Thor told you about it- he said that he didn't go in there often- only to sleep.
You now stood in front of his door, nervously, you swallowed dryly, as you hesitated to knock on the door.
Then you did.. you knocked quietly and gently, not wanting to annoy other members of the palace, soon later the door opened to darkness, Loki's dark figure stood over you, making you realize that you were very small, Loki had no lights in his room, it was just blackness.
You couldn't see his face clearly you only saw the bead of his dry hair flopping in front of you.
"What?" He asked annoyed, you couldn't see him but he sounded out of breath, like he had been crying.
You squinted your eyes to see the moonlight reflect on his pupils, they were teary and frustrated.
"I ugh- I brought your helmet- you left it,"
Loki had reached out and snatched his helmet out of your hands and pulled it to him.
"are-are you alright?" You asked quietly, as you fiddled with your fingers, you felt him stare at you for a brief moment, then he stood a step out, the moonlight shining onto him to reveal him..
His hair was messy and dried, instead of gelled back, his face was sweaty and puffy, his eyes were read and his cheeks were sticky.
He swallowed harshly, "Go away, girl." All of a sudden he pulled back, shutting his door in front of you, leaving you standing, your hands nervously trembling and your breath shaking.
You didn't know what to do, you stood there for a while, then suddenly you flinched hearing Loki inside shout and glass shattering, and a table being flipped, you stepped back quickly, in shock, scarred tears formed in your eyes and you didn't know why.
You scattered away back to your chamber, with your heart racing and your blood pumping.
—————
You sat in your bed- leant up. You brought the covers close to your chest as you breathed heavily, your throat was dry and you left heart was still racing, that scarred you. A lot.
Maybe it was that before, he was seductive and calm and patient, and when you saw him later, his was angry and frustrated, you had never heard him shout like that, or anyone.
You laid back, trying to go to sleep but it didn't work, not because you had already had your sleep in the library, but you couldn't stop thinking about what happened just a few moments ago.
You were annoyed at yourself because you thought you knew him, you thought you were so close to him, but you're not. It's makes sense that you really don't know him at all, you've known him for at least several months and that's it, Thor knows Loki best, and you think that you know him, you don't.
You were embarrassed for yourself, that you think that he likes you, he's probably done this with several other women, you are just something to mess with, he wouldn't love you, you are nothing compared to him, but you want to be more with Loki, something special...
You forced your eyes closed until you fell asleep- again, but this time you feel asleep thinking about him.
