Anywayssss, Loki is obviously the beast in this case, his frost giant form. And you my lovely reader, shall help him learn that everyone is beautiful:)))
Please enjoyyy 

I pulled the (f/c) hood around my face tighter. The cold breeze made the tip of my nose freeze but I mostly ignored it. I watched as Loki stood in the snow, staring at the frozen lake. The blue of his skin made him pop out of the white snow. He held his hand up and a small cardinal landed in his hand. A smile crept onto my face as I slowly walked closer to him. Loki had a soft smile on his face. He looked pleasantly surprised at the bird's actions. 
"Here." 
I said softly, placing a hand on his shoulder. My hands tingled at the chill but I slowly dropped some bird feed into the hand that held the cardinal. The red bird started to peck and eat the food out of his hand. Loki smiled wider at the sight and watched the animal. 
"Marvelous,"
Loki said breathlessly, holding both his hands in a cup-like position,
"They usually never get this close to me."
I smiled at how happy he looked. For once, it didn't bother me too much to stand close to him or even be in his presence. Loki seemed different. He was more open with me and actually tried to act friendly towards me. Unlike before, when he called me every other name there was from his Asgardian culture. I didn't understand half of them so they never bothered me. 
"(Y/n), would you like to have a dance with me after dinner? I noticed how you've been drawn to the ballroom lately."
Loki spoke out of the small silence we had as we stared at the bird. I blinked, the sudden question caught me off guard. I smiled softly.
"I'd love too."
Loki smiled brightly and nodded. The cardinal flew off and Loki dropped the rest of the food it didn't eat onto the snow.

~~~~

We broke away from each other at the dinner table and headed back up to our respective rooms. I fiddled with my fingers thinking about how much Loki has changed. I smiled softly. Lost in my thoughts.
"Excuse me miss."
One of the servants broke me out of my thoughts. It was Steve. He smiled softly at me before bowing slightly.
"Pepper has helped set out a dress for you."
"Thank you, Steve."
I said softly, walking into my room. He nodded and stood straight up. Pepper stood in front of a tall wardrobe. A light green dress laid across the bed, it had small golden accents all around the dress. My mouth fell open slightly. 
"It's beautiful."
"Thank you, Loki wanted to give you it as a thank you for everything you've done."
Pepper said, turning to look at me. I smiled.
"He really has changed a lot from the first time we met."
I said and walked towards the bed. I grabbed the dress and Pepper walked to me. She helped me put the dress on, zipping it up from the back. She pulled a ribbon around my waist, tying it in a bow in the back. I smiled.
"Thank you."
I hugged her tightly. Pepper smiled and hugged back.
"Best no keep him waiting."
She said softly. There were green gloves too and I pulled them onto my hands. Pepper walked towards the door, opening it. I walked slightly towards the door, getting used to the length of the dress. Pepper opened the door for me. I let out a small thank you before looking down the stairs. Loki stood at the end of the stairs, wearing a dark blue suit. Steve said something to him and Loki looked up the stairs. He locked eyes with me and his face turned into awestruck. I giggled softly, my face burning at his gaze. I descended the stairs and Loki walked up the last few steps, holding his hand out to me. I placed mine in his, I couldn't feel the coldness of his skin as we both were wearing gloves.
"You look beautiful."
He said, leading me down the stairs.
"And you look handsome."
I replied. We moved our hands and locked arms with each other as he led me towards the ballroom. Loki seemed a bit stiff and nervous as we walked. He opened the door and walked inside, pulling me towards the middle of the room. I giggled softly, intertwining our fingers together. His body stiffened more at the contact. I grabbed his empty hand and placed it on my waist.
"Do you know how to dance?"
I asked, placing my hand on his shoulder. His eyes quickly looked everywhere except me before they landed on my face.
"Uh, yes of course. I just haven't done this in such a long time,"
He said as he started to step into a small waltz. I giggled softly, following his lead.
"Let alone dancing with such a beautiful woman such as yourself."
Loki spoke softly, probably expecting me not to hear. My face flushed slightly as I laughed.
"You do know a way to a woman's heart don't you?"
Loki smiled at me, breaking away to spin me around.
"I've been told I have a silver tongue."
I smiled as we reconnecting continuing with the dance.

Loki's POV

(Y/n) leaned against my chest slightly, closing her eyes as I lead her through the dance. My eyes lit up and I smiled brightly. I saw Steve, Tony, and Pepper out of the corner of my eye. Their faces lighting up. I looked at them and Tony gave me a small wink. I felt (Y/n) shift in her movements. She looked up at me and smiled. I returned the expression and slowed our pace down. I wrapped both of my arms around her waist and slowly dipped her down towards the floor. (Y/n) jerked at the movement and quickly wrapped her arms around my neck for support. She locked her beautiful (e/c) eyes with mine. I smiled softly down at her. Her eyes scanned my face before she leaned closer towards me. My body instinctively moved closer to her, our lips connecting. Her hand entangled itself in my hair, holding me close to her as I stood her up straight. I pulled away from her slightly. She panted out soft breaths as we stood there. I blinked and quickly moved away from her.
"I'm..I'm sorry."
I said and she looked up at me.

Your POV

"No Loki it's okay I-"
I quickly cut my sentence off as a bright light blinded me slightly. I covered my face and backed away from where Loki stood. I heard a body fall to the floor. I moved my arms away, seeing a body on the floor.
"Loki?"
I said softly, the man slowly regained himself. He sat up slightly. His skin was now pale and not an ice blue. I fell next to him.
"(Y/n)"
He said softly, looking up at me. His eyes were now blue instead of a blood-red. I smiled, holding his face in my hands. It was no longer cold, he smiled and sighed happily. Loki leaned his head into my hand as he placed his own over mine.
"I love you."
I said, running my fingers through his hair. Loki smiled brightly and tackled me to the floor. I squeaked and looked up at him, his arms on either side of me.
"I love you too."
He said before pressing his lips against mine. The door quickly opened and closed. Footsteps went out of the door making me smile against the kiss. I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck. Loki pulled away and was smiling like a fool.
"I'm so glad I met you."
He whispered, nuzzling his face into the crook of my neck.
