Stark

24. I Care

When I arrived at the tower, I looked for Loki. I looked for him in his room, but he wasn't there. I looked in my brother and Bruce's lab. He wasn't there either. "Loki!" I called out. I searched in the kitchen, but he wasn't there. I was starting to get worried. I searched the living room, but he wasn't there either. "Loki, please", I said as I started crying.

I turned around and stopped crying. He was on the balcony. I went onto the balcony. His back was facing me. I was about to speak, but Loki beat me to it.

"I never wanted you to see me like this", he said.

"See you like what?" I asked. Loki turns around. His skin was blue and his eyes were red.

"This is because I'm a Frost Giant. I never wanted you to see me like this, Emma. I never wanted you to see me as the monster I am", Loki says. I walked up to him and held his hands.

"Don't say that, Loki. You're not a monster", I said. I let go of Loki's hands.

"Please stop. There's no hope for me".

"Stop saying that. Do you really think I care about how you look? I don't. I like you for who you are. I'm never giving up on you. That's how much you mean to me", I said. I pulled Loki closer to me and our lips touched.

We kissed for what felt like eternity. We finally pulled apart. We were both speechless. "Emma?" Loki asks. I knew what he was about to ask.

I nodded. "I wanted to tell you for a while now", I said. Loki kisses me. He pulled apart and walked away. "What are you doing?"

He stopped and looked at me. "I'm going back. Back Home", Loki says.

"Loki, no. Please".

"Goodbye, Emma".

"You can't. Please. I like you. I really really like you. Do you feel the same?"I asked. Loki nodded.

"Of course. I felt that way ever since we met, Stark", Loki says.

"Then, I'm begging you to not go", I said as tears fell from my face.

"I have to", he said. "Goodbye, Emma". And with that, a beam of light pulled Loki off the ground and into the sky.

"Loki!" I shouted, but he was gone. I dropped to my knees and cried.
