Sadly no one but Sophia is mine
Please review and enjoy ^^
Loki was bored, and he hated being bored.
The all too familiar glass cage was boring in itself and he had nothing to do, he could of course easily use magic and get out, or at the very least have fun. But he wanted Thor to trust him like he used too and sadly if sitting in a cage while hairless apes watched him then so be it.
His head snapped up as he heard the doors slide open, and he was taken back at what he saw. It was a woman who couldn't have looked more out of place if she tried, she walked in looking at him with dislike before sitting down, with her back on the wall and a selection of books spread out around her.
He couldn't help to notice her flame red hair falling in cascades around her shoulders, Loki could have sworn that he saw the dark brown eyes which were round as saucers before her fringe fell over her eyes, her pouty red lips mouthing the words as she read the book in her lap.
She's beautiful.
Loki thought to himself with surprise before a frown slid across his features, he was Loki the God of Mischief and Lies, he didn't feel soft for anyone, especially a mere mortal.
Her eyes snapped up from the book again and for a second Loki allowed himself a moment of happiness as a soft look crossed her features before the scowl crossed her face.
"It's not me you're afraid of," he said quietly, a small smile passing his lips as he spoke, hoping that the boredom would go away now, "it's this cage."
The girl which Lokis eyes were glued on snapped her head up and smirked, quirking an eyebrow as she slid the book off her lap, "well done, gold star for you Loki."
At least she's not afraid of me.
Loki kicked himself mentally to stop himself from thinking as he spoke, "you know my name," he nodded his head gracefully towards her, "may I know yours?"
She snorted and stood up, took a few steps forwards and leaned on the metal bars a few steps away from the glass of his cage, "I'm Sophia."
"Sophia," Loki repeated, smiling at the way it sounded on his tongue, her eyes penetrated his for a second and his heart skipped a beat as he met her eyes, their depth made him feel as if she was the mind reader. "Why do you hate cages so much? You are not even in one?" he asked her quietly before he could stop himself.
She shrugged carelessly and cocked her head, "this is a massive prison really isn't it. One huge metal cage we're all trapped inside."
"That's an interesting way to think about it," he said quietly, "why are you reading that book again?"
"How do you – ?" she began which made Loki snicker before she stopped and spoke again, such venom laced in her words that it made Loki take a step back. "Stay the fuck out of my head you asshole."
"Do not talk to me like that, I am a god," he automatically snapped back, "you do not talk to me like that you filthy mortal."
"Fuck off, you think you're all better than me but you're the one who's trying to get Thor to love you," she retaliated, spiting the words out through her grit teeth and at that time Loki didn't think he'd ever seen anything more beautiful. Her eyes were ablaze with anger as a faint red blush spread across her cheeks as she spoke, her small hands balled into tiny fists.
"I could destroy you," he spat out and took a step forward but he didn't think about hurting her. It was the furthest thing from his mind.
Loki saw Sophias mouth open to retaliate as her eyes narrowed into little slits, and a shiver ran down his body as he realised that not only had he never been spoken to like that before but he was no longer bored.
"Loki," Thors voice over the intercom, not quiet threatening but everyone could clearly see hear the warning in his words, Loki kept his eyes on the girl as she turned around and stalked back to her seat on the floor, picking the book back up.
"I hate cages because that's where I grew up," she said quietly, "and I read this in about two seconds, it's childs play. But if I tell them that I'd have to do more work," she smirked, scooping the rest of her books into her arms, "I'll bring you a book later." Before stalking out the door, back to the conference room, leaving Loki staring after her with wondering thoughts.
Sophia was trying to work, but Loki's lean form which was perched in the cage kept making her stomach feel funny, she'd glance up and find him staring at her, each and every time, and each time he was have a little smile on his lips as if he knew a secret that she'd want to know, his pale green eyes piercing hers as she spoke up, the constant singing that coming from him that she'd been trying to ignore since she stepped inside was finally too much.
"Loki damn it, stop singing that fucking song," she snapped, matching Loki's grin as it grew wider, cocking his eyebrows mimicking her as he replied.
"My dear I have no idea what you mean," he replied.
"Bitch," she snorted, which made Loki try to suppress his chuckle, making the rest of the people in the room besides Sophias head snap up their eyes on Loki.
"Did you just laugh brother?" Thor asked, his raising his eyebrows, surprise etched on his features.
"I am allowed to, aren't I brother?" Loki retorted, his face back to being emotionless, which was something that Sophia decided that she didn't like at all.
"What song even was that," Sophia asked as she stood in front of the glass cage placing her hands on her hips, humming it under her breath, "it's catchy as hell."
"That's for me to know," Loki smiled mischievously, as the music in Sophias head began again, she groaned and tried to keep the smile off her lips, walking over to Stark, a man who'd she come to get on with more than she'd expected.
For once she had friends.
"By the way," she conversed casually as she wrote more things down on the glass bored in front of Stark, "I was thinking," she glanced over to Loki's cage, "I want to let him out."
"Are you crazy," he hissed at her, which made Sophia chuckled and he couldn't help but to throw her a matching smile.
"You know me well already," she retorted before walking over to Lokis cage, opening her mouth to talk to him, make that smile reappear on her face which was when she felt something cave in around her as a searing pain began.
