Frozen By Love (A Stoki Fic) {UNDER EDITING}

Chapter 12

Steve's POV

We manage to get the SHIELD headquarters in record time, mainly due to Tony's sociopathic driving skills and everyone moving out of our way as to not get in a car accident.

"See, not so bad, right?" He had asked me on the way.

I shake my head as I get out of the Thunderbird, wanting this training to already be over so I can back to Loki. I smirk a bit as I think of Loki and last night.

"Thinking about naked women this early in the morning Cap? I thought you oldies were all about chivalry." Tony's snarky words bring me back to focus.

I scowl at him and feel my lips pointing down into a frown. "No, Tony, not everyone is like you."

I feel my words have hit a nerve with the man of iron, but he just laughs it off as we enter the building, Agent Collson greeting us. "Captain, Mr. Stark. Right this way please."

Tony rolls his eyes as I smack him in the arm. "Owe Cap, we haven't started training yet, so keep your ultra strength until we do."

I shake my head at Tony. "Seriously? Do I really need to explain my actions? Be respectful Tony, or is that too hard for a prick like you?"

Agent Collson coughs, clearing his throat, clearly wanting Tony and me to stop bickering. I hear Tony grit his teeth as he says a snide comment under his breath. I'm about to put him on the spot about it when Collson stops in front of a plain steel door.

"Fury and the others are in here already, waiting for you. Good luck." He smiles at us before escorting himself out of the hallway before anyone can stop him.

I look over at Tony and gesture towards the door. "You first Mister Stark."

He rolls his eyes again as he grabs the handle and pushes it open, clearly ticked off now. I follow him in, all heads turning to look at us.

"Wow, good to have you two finally show up." Nick Fury says, standing up, causing his trench coat to sway with his movements.

"Well somebody took forever to get ready." Tony says, not bothering to glance at me or make it relevant to me what-so-ever.

I feel anger surge through at Tony's word. "Well somebody didn't bother picking me up until latest time possible." I mock Tony's snide voice, adding an eye roll for effect.

"Well someone's a little off their rocker today."Natasha Romanoff says from her seat next to Clint.

"No, I just have a pounding headache...I had a long night." I shrug and look away from the others.

"Long night? Doing what?" Thor asks, standing up with his hammer in his hand.

"More like doing who." Tony says, as he takes off his sunglasses and puts them in his coat pocket, smirking.

"Oooo a pretty lady?" Clint asks, winking at me.

I feel a blush creep up my neck as I scratch my head. "No...?"

My words hit everyone like a sack of bricks. They all fall silent and their eyes lock on me, all their brows raised. "A...guy?" Fury is the one to speak up first, but his voice doesn't register surprise.

I nod my head a little, ashamed, but then realize, so what I like guys? Is there really a problem to it? No, and if someone has problem with it, they don't have to associate themselves with me at all.

Natasha breaks out into a huge grin and mock skips over to me. "Wellll, what's the lucky guys' name?" She puts her hand son her hips as her shoulder length red hair sways with her movements, her eyes bright.

I swallow hard. "Well...you see...It's actually a long story..."

"How is a name a long story? I just want his name! We can tell stories after we train!" Natasha laughs and hits my arm, still trying to pry into uncharted territory.

I shrug. "His name is irrelevant." I say, trying to sound disinterested in the subject so we can move on.

"Oh come on Cap; just spit it out before we make you say it." Clint says, giving me the come on and stop being such a sissy look.

I sigh and give a quick glance to Thor. "Fin, I'll tell you his name. Will that satisfy you?"

They all nod, clearly interested to hear who's name I'm about to say. I hesitate, not wanting to say Loki's name, and God forbid have to explain the entire story to everyone and get my ass handed to me, but I straighten my shoulders and clear my throat.

"Fine. The man to which currently may reside in my house, is Loki."
