Hello guys! Here is the new chapter! I hope that you enjoy it and love Hal and Loki's interaction as much as I loved writing it. They are too cute and drop dead gorgeous in my mind! So I want to share them with the world.
READ THIS! I wanted to remember to you guys that this story has been rewrite, so you have to read the first chapter (I'm sure that some of you didn't get the notifications, that's because what I did was replace the first chapter with the new one, no update) it's important that you do, because I did some major modifications in the plot. You will understand WHO this major change is, hahaha.

Chapter 2
SHIELD's base
It hadn't passed much time when Fury barged in and clearly furious, but honestly who could blame him? There had been an intruder in his base, and said intruder had escaped with his fucking prisoner. It was compressible.
The cameras hadn't captured anything significant before the circuits fried. So, they could only rely on information given by Barton, Rogers, Thor and Romanoff for the moment.
''Report!'' he barked.
Natasha stud up and started talking ''the intruder seemed to be another Asgardian. His appearance was similar to Loki's. He's tall around 6'4 I think, has long black hair, fair skin and green eyes instead of blue like Loki''
Tony perked up at that ''Blue? Absurd, he has green eyes too, more light thought'' He mused inwardly and looked at Thor to see his reaction and if he would say something, but the blond was still a little pale from earlier, and seemed lost in thought, so he switched his attention back to his first thought ''Blue? I didn't pay much attention in the tower. I was too shocked but…'' He looked at Clint from the corner of his eye '' could it be the same?''
Tony sighed and paid attention to Natasha once more. The red head hadn't finished with her report ''he also was wearing jewelry, both with a symbol that I didn't recognize. His facial expression and corporal language didn't reveal anything. He's unknown to us. He's dangerous''
''He broke out that son of a bitch! Of course he's dangerous'' said Clint hotly.
''calm down Clint'' hissed Natasha as she squeezed his shoulder and Fury narrowed his eye at him.
''ok, ok. I'm cool''
''Good''
Fury looked at Thor intently and said ''Thor, care to share what is in your thoughts? You're awfully quiet for someone that seems to know something about this… apparent ally of your brother''
Thor didn't respond, still deep in thought. He had been thinking over and over again about his brother and that man. The Master of Death, The king of Nilfheim and Helheim.
Thousands of questions popped in his mind, but the more predominant ones were, how his brother came to know him? What could imply his presence here? And… how that would change things?
Steve who was seated next him patted his arm gently snapping him out his internal debate.
''Ah, yes… The man that took my brother away isn't someone ordinary''
''knew that already'' Tony murmured to himself.
''I remember him. I never knew him personally but I saw him once in a while in the company of my brother. Loki always seemed happier in his presence, relaxed even. I always wondered who he was, but…I never, knew or thought, not even in my wildest dreams that he was Him'' Thor trailed off.
''Him? What are you talking about? You aren't making much sense Thor'' Steve said.
Thor rubbed his face with his hand and continued ''He wears a symbol. I'm sure that you saw it''
''the triangle with a circle and a line in the middle?'' asked Natasha.
''Aye'' He draw it and showed it to the others ''You have to understand that symbols in our culture and in that of old to you, which was in some parts heavily influenced by ours -Asgard and the other realms- represent power and had a meaning''
''so, what represent and mean this symbol?'' asked Fury.
''Death'' Some of the people in the room paled a little at that
''What?!''
Thor passed a hand through his hair, clearly uncomfortable for a moment ''that symbol isn't just a symbol….it's a claim. Death's Claim. Death has claimed him as its Master. He's not just a mere god or King''
''Oh, Hell…''Tony rubbed his temples '' I need a drink''
''And how the hell Loki knows him?!'' Clint exclaimed.
''that… I don't know or what will mean to us and Midgard''
Unknown location (two days later)
Loki woke up feeling much better than the last time. His body didn't hurt so much anymore, it was just a faint ache here and there.
''the pain is gone…'' he thought, touching the bandages that covered his chest and arms. Then, he remembered, flashes of everything that had happened in the last two year rushed through his mind, memories that he would be better without ''or that's what I want to believe….'' He clenched his fists and shut his eyes and took a deep breath not wanting to dwell again in the pitiful state he was in until Halvalr show up.
''Halvalr!'' Loki sat on the bed quickly and turned to observe his surroundings.
There wasn't much light but he still could see perfectly the shapes of everything inside the room and that included the subject of his thoughts. He was lying on his back on the other side of the bed, with just a pair of soft looking black cotton pants on, his hair was loose and covered a part of his face and chest, like a dark curtain.
'' Hal…'' Loki thought and reached to remove the hairs off his face and put them gently behind his ear. His fingers lingered there for a moment and then began to trace the rest of his features, the arc of his eyebrows, his nose, his jaw and his lips.
''you're here…'' he whispered and lost himself in thought. So, he didn't noted when those lips parted slightly and took one of his fingers in and bite it lightly
Loki yelped in surprise and glared half-heartedly to the now awake man, who was watching him with amusement filled eyes.
''Halvalr!''
''yes? Little King'' The emerald eyed man smiled innocently and stretched his body lazily, never taking his eyes from Loki's own pale green eyes.
''why did you bite me?!'' demanded Loki almost sulking.
''so cute'' Halvalr thought chuckling quietly. This was a side of Loki that no one but him and maybe Loki's mother Frigga -when Loki was little- know.
''umm…let's see….''he sat on the bed ''your finger was on my lips and…'you looked so lost'' He leaned in forward and cupped Loki's right cheek with one of his hands and took Loki's left hand with the other ''I couldn't help it'' he caressed his cheek lovingly with his thump and released it, then took his hand to his lips, almost brushing his knuckles with his lips and said huskily ''I had to taste such a treat 'I had to snap you out of it''
''Silvertongue'' Loki rolled his eyes.
Halvalr grinned at that and then licked the back of his hand ''Umm…so delicious''
''Hal! Don't do that!'' Loki laughed, his laugh was so light and carefree, that made Halvalr eyes soft. He was glad, what he did worked.
''I'm glad that you can still laugh like that'' He smiled softly ''I was worried, still I am, but…''
Loki leaned in forward and hugged the other man ''I missed you so much Hal'' He whispered burying his face in the crook of Halvalr's neck.
''I missed you too'' Halvalr whispered and hugged him back. ''I'm glad that you are ok'' he continued to whisper and began to caress Loki's hair. ''I was afraid that I wouldn't get you on time and… I didn't, no when it mattered the most. I'm sorry''
''It's not your fault. You were recovering'' Loki drew back a little to look at him better and gasped ''and you, you shouldn't be awake…. Not yet….. Hal, your magic!''
''its fine. I'm fine, don't worry. We will talk about that and me later''
''but!''
''No, this is about you. Right now, who matters is you. You're my main concern, little king'' Halvalr took Loki's face with his hands and looked him at the eyes.
''I felt your pain Loki'' He whispered, his voice full of sorrow ''your anger, your angst, your call…'' Loki adverted his eyes and looked down ''it scared me so much, it's meaning…''
''Hal… I-'' Loki looked up, his face pale. Halvalr seeing this decided to try something. He had to lighten the mood.
''have to rest some more'' Halvalr said and caressed his hair, twirling some locks with his finger at the base of his neck ''we can talk about what happened later. Now, come on, let's lie back.'' then pulled back Loki with him. The black hired prince yelped surprised and ended sprawled awkwardly on top him.
''this bring old memories'' Halvalr laugh a little ''Are you comfortable?''
''No'' Loki grunted, but didn't move.
Halvalr smiled and patted Loki's head, then closed his eyes ''well you aren't a child, so you don't fit so well on my chest anymore''
''Hal?'' said Loki and moved to lie at Halvalr side, his head cushioned by the other man chest.
''Umm?''
''Thank you…for what you are doing, for taking my mind off it'' he said quietly.
''no problem. Now rest, we can talk about that later, when you are ready''
''I… yes, thank you''
