The moonlight shined on your tear stained face through the floor to ceiling window. You sat up with a groan and steeled yourself off of your soft mattress. As you washed your face the events of earlier that flashed through your head.

He lied to me. You thought over and over.

"To be fair, they did leave you notes." You heard your own voice. You looked up in confusion. Your reflection's glowing green eyes met yours. "You heard me." She told you.

"But they took so long to tell me." You whined.

"You can't ignore them forever. What if they find someone better?"

"Shut up."

"They're too good for you, don't waste this. You've missed them for this long." She continued.

"Shut up." You repeated.

"I'm being serious, y/n. This isn't healthy. Don't ruin this." She taunted.

"I said shut up!" You yelled and smashed your fists against the mirror. The glass shattered and flied towards you, slicing your face. You winced at the pain felt your face for cuts.

You had a deep gash across your forehead and a large scrape on your cheek. You sighed and emerged from your room, tiptoeing down the hall towards the elevator.

"Y/n?" Wanda stood in the threshold of her door a few feet away from you. "Y/n are you okay darling?" She asked you.

"Of course, why wouldn't I be Wanda?" Your words were sharp but quiet.

"Turn around sweetheart." She ordered sweetly. You groaned and turned on your heel to face your best friend. "Oh my goodness what happened?!" She frantically grabbed your hand and pulled you into her room.

You sat on her bed and adjusted slightly to face her. She placed herself in front of you and inspected your face before raising her hand to heal your injuries. Her scarlet-red chaos magic glowed in her hand. She moved her fingers around and you felt your cuts close.

"What did you do to yourself y/n?" She asked when she was finished with your wounds.

"I broke my mirror." You mumbled. She sighed and pulled you in for a light hug.

"Y/n, I'm really sorry I didn't tell you sooner. He wouldn't let me say anything." She told you.

"Yeah I understand." You half lied. She saw right through your lie and sighed.

"He wants to see you, when your ready of course." She told you. You nodded and left her alone in her room.

"Miss, its time for dinner." Friday informed you. You sighed and hopped of your bed and threw on a large hoodie.

You rode the elevator down to the dining room and prepared for whatever the hell was for dinner.

"I made chicken paprikash!" Wanda smiled and greeted you. You sent her a week smile and sat in your assigned spot at the table. The rest of the team started to file into the dining area. The last person to arrive was Loki who sat comfortably at his normal spot next to you.

"Good evening." He greeted. Instead of responding, you shoveled food onto your plate. He nodded carefully and took a sip of his drink.

The dinner went by in a flash. Before you knew it, you were back in your room, this time joined by Wanda who was carefully braiding your hair.

"Are you going to talk to him?" She asked.

"No, I don't think I will." You replied with a sigh.

"He loves you and I know he's sorry." She told you nicely.

"I'll talk to when I'm ready." You reminded her.

"Its been a week since you left your room." Friday announced. You groaned and turned over on your bed. "Really Friday? I find that hard to believe." You replied sarcastically.

You sat up from your ruined bed and scanned your dirty floor for your phone that you tossed out of frustration a few days prior.

You peeled away small balls of lint that attached to it and powered the device back on. In big bold white letters, Stark Industries flashed on the slightly cracked screen.

5 missed calls from Tony, 10 messages from Wanda, tagged in a twitter thread and tik tok video and 500 messages from the team group chat.

"Wow." You sighed. You stood up and emerged from your lair, hoping nobody was on your floor.

Ding!

"Shit!" You whispered. You let a wave of green magic shimmer over you, turning you invisible. You pressed yourself up against to wall and watch Wanda and Loki exit the elevator and walk in silence to Loki's room.

When you were sure they were gone, you tiptoed to the elevator and frantically pressed the down button.

"That was torture to watch." You heard a feminine voice behind you say. You jumped and turned to face Lady Loki or Lilly, whatever alias the liar desired.

"Wh- how? Illusion." You answered your own question with a sigh. She nodded sympathetically and approached you slowly taking a single step.

"Y/n, I'm truly sorry for not telling you sooner." She told you. Your eyes met hers briefly but quickly adverted to the floor.

"I forgive you." You muttered. Her lips curled into a mischievous smile and she took another step forward. "Did I hear that correctly, love?" She teased.

"Yes your majesty." You teased back. She smiled and scooped you up over her shoulders. "Loki put me down!" You yelped. She chuckled and placed you in the elevator next to her.

"I think its time you show your face downstairs, darling." She told you firmly.
