Cryptic Hush - Chapter Twenty Four -
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TO MY BROTHER?!"
Tony and Loki jerked away from each other quickly as they both turned wide eyes to the balcony door to see Thor standing there fuming.
"Uh, I can expla-!" Tony tried to say but before he could, Thor had rushed forward and grabbed his collar, lifting him up into the air.
"What are you doing Stark? Why are you defiling my brother?" he said through gritted teeth. Tony frowned.
"I wasn't 'defiling' him." He yelped as Thor shook him roughly and glared.
"Don't deny it, I saw your tongue down his throat and your hands all over him."
Tony gulped and pulled at the edge of his lab coats collar nervously. "Wow, is it hot out here or is it just me?"
He yelped as Thor punched him square in the jaw.
"JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! WHAT THE HELL?!" Tony cried out.
"Thor you idiot, put him down!" Loki cried out from behind Thor. Thor snarled but dropped Tony down on the ground. As soon as he was down, Loki Pushed last the blonde teen and crouched by Tony who clutched his jaw and his eyes widened as his hand came away with blood.
"The fuck? WHY DID YOU DO THAT YOU FUCKING LUNATIC!" he shouted angrily as Loki pulled a green handkerchief out of his inside coat pocket and dabbed it against Tony's bleeding jaw.
"What's going on up here?"
Loki glanced around Thor to see Steve, Natasha, Clint, Pepper, Bruce, Jane and Darcy all standing there with wide eyes.
"Tony? What happened to your face?!" Clint asked with concern then stepped forward but stopped when Thor turned around, still with the glare on his face.
"This jerk was leading my brother on..." he glared at Tony who glared back.
"I wasn't leading him on you dickhead!"
"But you are into women! You are a playboy! As far as I was aware, you are not gay!"
"Newsflash for you Point Break, I am gay, and I'm in love with him!" Tony spat and glared still even though Thor's features softened. Beside him, Loki's eyes widened.
"You're... In love with me?"
Tony blushed and diverted his gaze from Thor to Loki. "Uhh I err... Yes." he smiled hopefully. "I love you."
Loki paused a moment as a feeling of pure happiness spread throughout him. "...I love you too."
They both smiled at each other before Tony said "Ahh fuck secrecy" and pulled Loki down into a kiss. Everyone aww'd as they kissed except Thor who was still letting out his anger. Although after seeing how much the two liked each other, he calmed down and cracked a smile as they broke apart and smiled into each other's gazes. Loki helped Tony to stand up then he clasped their hands together as they stood awkwardly in front of their friends.
"So uhh, were together guys." Tony said, rubbing the back of his head awkwardly. "We've been together for a few weeks but we wanted to keep it a secret at first, so this is probably a shock..."
He and Loki frowned when everyone bar Thor shook their heads and laughed.
"Tony, we already knew."
"Wait, What? How?!" Tony asked as his head moved from one person to the other as they all laughed again.
"Well, Steve and I knew when we saw you holding hands coming out the cinema..." Pepper said with a smile.
"You saw that? Wow, and I thought I let go pretty quick there..."
Loki rolled his eyes.
"I saw you two holding hands in the park, then you pulled him into a bush." Natasha said with a smirk.
"So that's why you looked so smug as you ran!" Tony said, thinking back to that moment.
"Bruce and I saw you lying on top of each other in the same bush. Seriously, 'tripped and fell'? How blind do you think we are man?" Clint said with a grin.
"Hey!" Bruce said, turning on Clint and raising an eyebrow. Clint held up his hands in defence.
"I didn't mean the 'blind' literally Bruce."
"Yeah... I could've handled that better." Tony grinned then glanced to Jane and Darcy. "What about you two?"
The two girls grinned at each other but Jane spoke. "We figured it out from the way you two looked at each other, especially you Loki."
Loki blushed slightly and grinned embarrassedly then frowned. "If you knew, then why did you flirt with Tony?" he asked Darcy who chuckled.
"I'm a drama student and I take it quite seriously. The guys here got together and sort of hired me to flirt with him in order for him to decline my temptation and declare his undying love to you Loki." She smiled at him then glanced away. "It backfired a little but I see it all worked out in the end."
Tony gave her an unimpressed look as he pulled Loki's hanky away from his face to see the cut on his jaw hadn't stopped bleeding yet.
Darcy winced slightly at the sight then shrugged. "Sorry that happened. Also just to set the record straight, I don't like you. If I had to choose between you two I'd actually go for Loki, he seems more my type but I already have a boyfriend of my own anyway. Plus I can see you two look happy and cute together."
The two guys raised their eyebrows at her. "Cute?" They echoed at the same time which made everyone laugh. Everyone but Thor who looked like a kicked puppy.
"I was... The last to know then?" He said as Loki turned to him.
"If I told you earlier, you would have reacted the same as you did now."
Thor winced and looked away ashamedly. "I'm sorry for hitting you Tony..." he said quietly.
Tony rolled his eyes then shrugged. "It's fine. I know you were just looking out for Lokes. But just so you know for sure, I was being serious. I love him."
Loki smiled and laced an arm around Tony's waist as the smaller teen leaned in. Thor smiled at the two and nodded. "I see that now. Okay, I'm happy for you guys but just so you know..." He glared and pointed at Tony which made him gulp. "If you break his heart, your answering to me, got it?"
Tony nodded quickly then glanced sideways at Loki. "Well, I didn't plan to anyway..."
Thor's expression immediately consorted into a wide happy grin. "Good. Shall we return to the party now? I think I heard Rhodey say it was time for the cake."
They all grinned then congratulated Tony and Loki before leaving one at a time until it was only those two left.
They stood in silence for a moment before Tony turned to Loki. "I think I'm ready to come out now."
Loki's eyes widened. "R-really? You sure you want to do it now?"
Tony nodded. "Well, I got you, your brother and my close friends happy about it. What does it matter about what other people think?"
Loki grinned then leaned over and kissed him again. Just a short, sweet kiss before he pulled apart and pulled Tony off the balcony and back downstairs. "Let's go then, birthday boy."
Dark: They ate finally out! Huzzah! Were almost near the bit that's near the end... Sort of (which means there's another 20 chapters still to go :/ ) Thats confusing... meh. Until the next chapter! ;D
