To Save A Life (Loki X Reader)

Chapter 16

You stood up sheepishly from his lap as you saw who stood at the door.

He suppressed a laugh as you hit him lightly for finding the situation amusing.

Pardon me for not telling you my mother was here. You glared at him.

"Your bed sorceress, you sit down. I am not hurt." He stood up and went to his mother, embracing her.

Should you sit down before the queen? Were you supposed to curtsy? Oh god! What if she didn't like you?

"Do sit down, lady y/n." You do so as if under a spell.

Asgard be damned Frigga would always be his mother. The way he looked at her made you long for such love. The love of a mother. Maybe his love, too.

The reason for the late news is...? You ask him.

You were obviously having a nightmare. He rolls his eyes. That idiot. Could he not see his mother standing right there.

Oh! so, you think that...

"Pardon the interruption, but I can feel you using your magic. You don't need to be afraid, darling." HIS MOTHER CALLED YOU DARLING. Could he feel it to?

"I wasn't. That wasn't. I am not afraid."

Obviously, you aren't. I am here.

So pretentious. You want to make a face at him so baaaad. If only his mother wasn't here. Shd wouldn't like you if you were making faces at her son. Would she?

"She is telepathic, mother. I am currently being scolded for not informing her of your arrival." He intervened in your behalf.

"I wasn't... scolding you. Inquiring–."

"Aggressively."

Shut up. You snap at him.

Okay.

Let his mother go away, and then you'll tell him what was okay.

She sad down on the chair Loki was occupying before and started laughing at you both.

If she says she doesn't like you. You'll blame him.

You glare at him. Too afraid to use your powers.

He shrugs at you inconspicuously.

"You need to rest, my child. You both do. I will meet with you later." She looks at your still tired form and says. Then she kisses his cheek and smiles at you as she goes out of the room.

How long had he kept vigil by your bed? How long had it been?
You didn't really care though. He was here. That was more than enough.

He comes back to sit by your bed. It offends you a little that he doesn't come right back where he was. But it was alright. Now that she mentioned it you do feel tired. And sleepy.

A moment of silence passes. You both just look at each other. You want to talk to him. And you don't want to jump right back to the nightmare you were talking about.

What else? Should you tell him what she thought?
Oh Loki! What have you done?

No. Not that. Not till you yourself knew her better. So something else she thought.

So patient.
He was never patient.
You let him hear his mother's voice.

"What?"

"She thought that. When she saw us. And you say I can't wait for things." You taunt him playfully. He gives a long animated sigh.
"When did she come?" You ask him after you are done laughing at his rather animated expressions
