Chapter 76 // It's Alright

You looked to Loki's sickly pale face as he asked how you felt. "I'm alright," You smiled. You had woken up almost an hour ago after Clint, Natasha and a nurse helped Loki with your situation; since then, he hadn't let you leave the bed in fear that it would happen again.

"You don't have to be so afraid still, Loki. I am awake now, everything is alright," You held his cheeks and furrowed your brows — smiling — at how caring it all was. Kissing him, you got up slowly and reminded him that it'll be okay. "Are you sure?" He asked. You nodded with a hum and he held you close wherever you were going.

As you both sat together, alone, in the livingroom, some of the others were on a mission and Loki's face regained colour. "Never?" You asked. "Never." He replied. "What if I'm taking a shower?" "I'll come with you. I'll make sure that you're okay. I'll help you." He told you. You could have sworn his words caused a tear to rise, but you just smiled. You told him that he was being cute, and although his cheeks flushed a pink, he pretended as if he weren't.

As you felt cramps in your calves, you quickly stretched your legs, but Loki started to massage them. Feeling slightly embarrassed, you kept quiet. "What happened here?" Bruce asked, walking in. "M- my calves were cramping so..." You gestured to Loki. "He looks so absorbed by it though." "I think he's stressed," You laughed awkwardly. "Parenthood would stress anyone, don't worry, though he looks more stressed than you," He said. You nodded, "I think it's because he doesn't know what's happening most of the time, he didn't usually enjoy the topic when we were younger." "Getting taught right is important," Bruce chuckled.

Telling Loki it was now alright, that you felt better, you thanked him. "It's going to be quite a sight to see you both looking after a child," Clint said, joining the conversation.
