To be Loki'd - Loki x fem reader

Chapter 21 - Flower crowns

Y/N's POV:

A smell of pancakes greats us from the kitchen as we enter happily. Bucky immediately jumps off his chair to hug me, pressing me close to his beating heart. 

"Y/n, I'm really sorry about what happened. Trust me, I want you to be happy and if happy means Asgardian Drama Queen then so be it." 

"I'm right here." 

"That's the point." Bucky rolled his eyes, slightly laughing before dragging me off to the table where the rest of the Avengers are sitting. As soon as they see me, they all come to hug me and express their regrets. However, it's not to me they should be apologising. I reach out to grab Loki's hand and make him sit in the chair next to him, not speaking until all their apologies are heard. The team uneasily shifted from one foot to another and looked at everything except him. I grabbed his hand under the table and squeezed it tight. Then, I leant back and crossed my arms, glaring at the team. 

Sam started speaking. "Loki, my man, I ain't did anything wrong towards you but I'm sorry a'ight? " He went to Loki and they did a handshake, Loki had a small smile on him. Sam turned towards the team, having been the first to welcome and now to apologise to Loki. Thor was leaning in the back of the room, beaming. 

"Loki and Y/n, on behalf of the team, we're all really sorry. We didn't trust you when Y/n clearly did and she can read minds and people sooo. We're all sorry." Steve announced, looking round at the team who nodded. 

I jutted my chin out to Tony who sat at the other end, dead silent. Pepper nudged him and went to stand by my side, copying my stance. Slowly and very dramatically, Tony stood up and went to hug me, rubbing my arms. 

"Y/n, I'm sorry. You're like a daughter to me and I'm scared you'll get hurt. But I guess if you trust Reindeer Games, then maybe I should to. Reindeer Games, apologies. That's all the soppy stuff you'll get out of me maximum." 

I hugged him back, happy to have my family back. The mood after this was very joyful and I could feel how happy Loki's aura is. I stacked pancakes on my plate, covering them in fruits, syrup and whipped cream. 

I was happy, Loki was happy, we were happy.

LOKI'S POV:

Two hours later: 

Thor and I were covered in sweat after our sparring practise. Every swordfight we had brought back memories of when we were young in Asgard. Thor had been the strong brute whereas I was cunning and smart. Water will always wear down rock. I had beaten him quite a bit today and my ego was definitely enlargened from those victories.

"Brother, I see you haven't quite lost your touch." Thor smiled, stowing away our swords. 

"Ah, well I have always been the superior one. " I chuckle lightly

"That you are sometimes." 

"I have a favor to ask of you." 

"What is it? Your favors are usually never very good for the other end." he looked at me, his face now analysing, devoid of any emotion. 

"I want to court Y/n." I say lowly, barely audible. He looked up at me with a bright smile on his face.

"YES! Brother, this is most excellent news! I knew it, I knew it!" Thor was now grinning and punched me playfully in the arm. He whooped loudly as I tried to muffle him

"It's not to be revealed yet. I was wondering if you could help me set up something nice for her where perhaps the team wouldn't be involved." I hissed at his jumping, radiant demeanour.
