"Morning." Steve greeted Loki as he walked into the living room seeing Loki sitting there reading a book.

"Good morning Steven." Loki replied not looking up from his book.

"And Tony says that i wake up super early... You wake up earlier then me." Steve says sitting down across from Loki. "Is he up?"

"Who?" Loki questioned totally confused who he was referring to.

"Tony." Steve answered.

"Are you referring to the dog?" Loki asked pretending to be clueless.

"Yes." Steve said standing up walking over to the direction of the kitchen where he saw Tony on the floor his eyes slowly opening as Steve enters the room. "Good morning Tony." Steve smiled bending down to pick up the small puppy.

"I'm hungry." Loki suddenly spoke up after walking into the kitchen.

"Me too..." Steve said picking up a bowl for Tony setting it on the floor while putting some dog food and water in it before setting Tony down in front of it.

"I said i'm hungry, and you go and feed the dog." Loki points out sounding some what disappointed.

"I think their is some left over soup in the fridge."

"No. Thor ate the rest remember?"

"Oh... Well have some pop tarts then."

"Those are Thor's, he'll kill me if i have them... How about we have some hot dogs." Loki suggested staring at Tony grinning evilly.

(Tony: Hot dogs?... But we don't have- AAH!) Tony's head shot up in fear keeping his eyes on Loki while backing closer to Steve.

"I don't think we have any-" Steve started to say while looking up at Loki until he noticed he meant Tony. "NO!" He shouted defensively. "We are not eating the puppy!"

(Tony: Yeah!) Tony thought as he snuggled closer to Steve earning a glare from Loki.

"Stop looking at him like that." Steve said defensively holding Tony tighter.

Two Days Later

"What's the matter Steven. None of us has seen you all day... When I come up to see if your alright, I see that your just pacing around in your room hopelessly." Loki said as he entered Steve's room. "Is there something bothering you Steven?" He asked sitting on Steve's bed watching him still pacing around the room.

"I-It's Tony." Steve stuttered nervously. "He s-still hasn't come home yet."

At that Loki looks over at the puppy sitting in front of Loki on the bed also watching Steve feeling a bit of guilt. "What are you talking about... Tony is right there." Loki said pointing at the puppy in front of him.

"Not that Tony!" Steve practically screamed in frustration. "Big Tony."

"He's not that big." Loki muttered under his breath so quietly only Tony could hear.

(Tony: HEY!)

"I just... I feel like it's all my fault." Steve whispered also sitting on the bed bringing Tony into his lap as he began to pet him.

"Like what's all your fault?"

"Why Tony went missing... All he wanted was for me to spend more time with him and when i didn't even do that... He was angry with me and-"

"It's not your fault Steven. Anthony left because he wanted to feel guilty."

(Tony: WHAT?! LOKI THAT IS NOT TRUE AND YOU KNOW IT!) Tony stood up in Steve's lap and began growling angrily at Loki.

"What's wrong boy?" Steve asked in a calming voice staring down at Tony as he tried to get him to calm down. "You miss Tony too?" Steve asked when Tony didn't calm down. When Steve asked that Tony quickly forgot about Loki and turned his attention to Steve. "I know." Steve said trying to force a smile. "I miss him too." Steve nodded his head ignoring how his voice cracked at the end of the sentence and his eyes began to turn red.

"I um... I think i heard Thor call me." Loki came up with a quick excuse as he made his way out the door without another word.
