My third chapter! I'm so excited even though these are really short chapters but oh well, enjoy!
Chapter 3
{Tony's Viewpoint}
The next day, our weird group of assorted friends are lounging under a tree outside the school. I need a coffee but no one, including myself, can be bothered sneaking up to the kitchen to grab one off the house elves. As I yawn and stretch out my arms on the grass, Tasha nudges me and giggles. Very unlike her. I almost screamed in terror.
"Look everybody," she smirked, "Tony's new eye-candy," and blast me I actually turned grinning, my eyes searching for the pale, green-eyed boy. Thor spluttered.
"Tony you shall NOT have unsavoury thoughts about my little brother. I will not condone you from your crimes from now on if you make a move on Loki!"
"Too late Thor-my-baby," I grinned and fluttered my eyelashes at him. And then Clint decided to chime in. The little shit.
"Invite him over Tony! I'm sure Thor won't mind you ogling at his little brother just this once," he smiled impishly.
Thor gave him a thunderous glare and then switched to me. I held up my hands in surrender. While we bantered back and forth, Bruce and Steve exchanged exasperated looks. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Tasha sneak up behind Loki, unsuccessfully, as he whipped around and grabbed the hand that was so close to poking him.
"Still staring, huh," Clint whispered breathily in my ear, making me jump a mile into the air and start rubbing my ear furiously.
My attention once again averted, I didn't notice Loki swaggering towards our tree. Two legs clad in leather appeared in my vision and I swallowed as my eyes raked up and down the figure in front of me. He stood in front of me, hands on his hips, in an almost feline poise. Turning to face him, I lazily stretched my legs over the grass, and loosened my scarf. He scoffed at my casual display of my body and Thor huffed disapprovingly.
"Hell-o."
"Natasha said you wished to see me. I suppose I can spare some time?" He cocked his head, smiling sweetly.
Oh god oh god is he flirting?! That sounds like flirting, although everything sounds like flirting to me. But damn. Loki stands above me, looking regal and hell if I say it, sexy, with his hands on his hips and lips drawn into a small smile.
"Brothe-"
"Shut up Thor."
"But Lo-"
"Yeah shut up Thor!"
"Tony! Thor did nothing wrong!"
"Shut up Steve."
Steve and Thor, looking quite miffed, retracted back into their shells to sulk. Natasha watched with an amused smile as a conversation erupted between the pale first year and the magnificent me. Loki cocked his head, arms now folded against his chest.
"I don't even know your name but you know mine. Care to enlighten me?"
"Tony Stark. Genius, billionaire, playboy and now apparently a wizard."
"Loki Laufeyson. But you already know that, don't you?"
"I do and I must say, what a charming entrance that was."
"Ton-"
"Go away Bruce."
Bruce now retreated to where Thor and Steve sat, now apparently talking about Quidditch. Natasha was left munching on barbeque chips that Clint had offered her and was watching the exchange with a small smirk.
"Why thank you, for the compliment and the acknowledgement. I suppose it is an honour coming from the great Tony Stark."
"Ouch. That stings. I don't like riding on my dad's coattails, you know."
"Yet you do."
"Waste not, want not. And plus, dad's just a muggle. Me? I'm plenty uh, skilled, at my own devices. "I grinned, looking him up and down.
"I suppose that's true. And your skill? We'll have to see about that." Loki twiddled his fingers, not even taking out his wand, and twinkling green and gold snowflakes appeared in the palm of his hand. Oh oh oh! This is going to be more fun than I thought. So this babe is a genius at magic, quite unlike his brother who is a muscles-sport-Quidditch wizard. Captivated, I reached out to touch them, floating in the air so complex and beautiful, only to be distracted by Tasha and her 'knowing smile.' Damn her.
"Sorry to interrupt you love birds but Prof. Coulson is heading this way, " Tasha interrupted, smirking and dragging Clint off to sit with the reject group.
I groaned and turned to face the 'calm and composed' Prof. Coulson who was, hopefully by chance, heading to the exact spot that Loki and I were chatting. He stopped I front of us and gave me a once over, frowning in thought. Detention. It's got to be. That's the only reason Prof. Coulson goes to see students at their break time. I groaned again and this time Loki joined me.
"I suppose you understand why I am here, Mr Laufeyson, Mr Stark." I grinned at his use of 'Laufeyson' and not 'Odinson'. Obviously he'd learnt his lesson.
"A cup of tea?" Loki said innocently and shoved a slender, manicured hand over my mouth as I guffawed. I decided I quite liked that hand there, I'd quite like that hand anywhere in fact. Prof. Coulson frowned.
"That would be good, except I fear that you'd slip something in it, Mr Laufeyson. Your father did contact me to warn us of you troublemaking tendencies." Loki's smirk turned sour, and his face grew frosty, closed off. Mention of his father, I guess that's a no no then. I sighed and got up, putting my most charming smile on.
"Soooo my dear, dear Professor. What brings you to our humble abode? It's not tea so is it an autograph? A medal for two bold, young men?" Loki grinned, the frostiness melting at the change of subject, "A bunch of flowers for the man that kicked some sense into you? But I don't see the flowers, have you hidden them somewh-"
"Detention, Mr Stark. You and Mr Laufeyson both, in fact. Headmaster Fury decided to have the instigators punished, and yes Mr Stark you as well, don't protest, it is final. You will both have detention with Prof. Logan, your Defence Against The Dark Arts teacher, in the Forbidden forest. He will brief you on the conditions. Joining you will be Mr Parker who has somehow managed to anger Mr Fury. I suppose he will tell you how. Be ready tomorrow after classes at 9:00 on the dot, by the abandoned hut near the Forbidden Forest. There will be no exceptions and Prof. Logan detests people who are late. You know his temper, Mr Stark. Understood?"
Fan-fucking-tastic.
Oooh detention! Btw I just had to add in Wolverine cos he is so awesome, even if he isn't really a part of the avengers (He's Nick Fury's buddy). Comments and criticism please ^.^
