Words You Once Said
Thor growled and walked over, opening the cell gate. He grabbed Loki and stormed past all of the protesting guards and confused mother. "You're going to him and apologizing." He grabbed the object used to get back to Asgard and made Loki grab the other side.
"I don't do apo-" His sentence was cut short as him and Thor were transported to Midgard.
Most importantly, in front of Stark's tower.
Thor pushed Loki towards the door of the building and stayed where he was. "I trust you not to leave, Loki."
Loki clentched a fist and gave a small nod, making his way inside. He looked around the tower. The memories of it bringing a cold feeling through his bones even when they were happy and warm. He shook his head and started moving again.
"Sir?"
Tony looked up from his project and looks around, running a hand through his hair. "Yes Jarvis?"
There was a horrid hesitants in the AI's voice. "Loki's in the tower."
Tony froze when he heard that, turning around to stare at the male who was now behind him. "...Loki."
Loki gave a sad smile, the agony in his eyes almost mirroring Tony's. "Anthony"
The inventor picked up a wrench and threw it at the god. It hit him straight in the forehead. "Why are you here?!" He ment to sound angry but it came out as broken as the iron man suit from the battle of New York.
Loki stayed silent as he rubbed at his forehead.
Tony stared back at him.
"I don't do apologies."
"I know."
There was a silence that made the two males shuffle.
"I'm sorry, Tony. I should've begged to stay. I shouldn't have done what I did in the first place." The god paused and waited for the inventor to say something, anything.
There was a long flooding pause that made both men feel like they were drowning. "I forgive you..."
Loki blinked. "I...I love you Tony. So much...really. You don't have to forgive me."
Tony ran over and hugged the trickster god. "Don't leave me again, please. I want you, god I hate you right now, but I want you to stay."
Loki held the inventor right back, staring at the wall with his vision fading back. "You know I have to go back to Asgard and talk to Odin..."
"I know, just let me enjoy this moment with you." Tony felt tears well but he didn't let them fall. He would never cry. Ever. It was a policy of his.
Loki nodded and closed his eyes, feeling his anguish if leaving to consume him. But then Tony hugged him tighter and a feeling of serenity washed over him.
He remember one of the first phrases Tony ever said to him and he agreed with it.
"Everything is gonna be okay in the end."
