"I love you y/n." Loki whispered suddenly while you were cuddling and you tense. You freeze and you can't say it back. You promised to never say those words again. Instead, you just leaned up and kissed him, hoping he would get the message. He didn't bring it back up for a while.

Two weeks later, you're in the kitchen preparing dinner for him and you when he appears behind you, wrapping his arms around your torso. You move your head back onto his shoulder and stay there for a while before remembering the food. You jolt up and get it out of the oven just in time. It's Loki's favourite.
"Atleast I didn't burn it." You smile, putting the food onto plates as Loki sorts your drinks out, placing them on the table as you place the food down.
"You made my favourite?" He asks and you nod, smiling brightly at him.
"I love you so much." Those five words were enough to put you off of your entire dinner but you managed to look up at him and smile, placing your hand in his on the table. He didn't mention it again for a bit.
***
"Because I love you!" He yelled back. You two were having an argument about the mission you had just been on. You had thrown yourself onto the blade, literally, saving everyone else. But Loki wasn't very happy that you did it.
"Which I'm starting to think you don't like." He adds, rubbing his face, "Why do you never say it?" His voice was quieter, more vulnerable than before and it made you feel so bad.
"Loki..." You warn, not wanting to tell him the story. You look down at your hands and fiddle with your fingers.
"No. I want to know. Do you not love me? Is that it?" He accuses and you want your bed to swallow you whole to avoid this conversation. Your silence makes him believe he's right and he sighs.
"Now I know why people don't fall in love." He breathes, stunned. He sits down on your bed, by your legs, "Why still be with me if it's not going anywhere? If you don't love me?" He asks, forcing you to look up at him and his sad puppy look.
"I do! More than anything I've ever felt in my life!" You burst, instantly covering your mouth and letting the tears fall down your cheeks.
"Y/n?" Loki rushes to your side, crouching down in-front of your face, "What's the matter?"
"Everyone I've ever said those words to has died. I said it to my family and they were killed infront of me. My best friend died in a car accident. My ex boyfriend shot in a school shooting. My grandfather of cancer. My-my-" You try to give more examples but sobs wrack through your body and you are forced to stop.
Loki climbs into your bed next to you, scooping you into a hug and placing you on his chest. He plays with the ends of your hair while you make his clothes wet with your tears.
"I am a God. I cannot be killed that easily." He says, his voice soothing you a lot.
"I wouldn't say that. It's l-like a curse or something. You love me, y-you d-die."
"Well I love you and I'm alive. With you. Right now."
"Just please don't die." You continue to sob and his hold on you tightens.
"I wont die." He assures you, still playing with your hair.
"Promise?"
"Promise."
