So just want to warn you that we are in for the last four chapters. There will be a sequel, but not right after this one because I got this other story that I'm working on. Also a Frostiron story, but AU!

Chapter 25

Loki opened his eyes slowly, taking in the special light that shined into their room in the early morning. He let out a calm sigh and got up to a sitting position to stretch out his long arms. The god looked back at his still sleeping fiancé, lying on his back, lips slightly parted and on hand on his stomach, the other arm reached out to Loki's side of the bed and he had probably been lying on it during the night. A smile crept over the god's lips, thinking that it was always him who woke up first in the mornings. If they weren't waken up by something of course. Loki looked over at the clock and noticed it was 7.10 am and realized that there must be a girl across the hall that would like some breakfast. He got out of bed carefully, so he wouldn't wake Tony up and put on some sweatpants and a t-shirt before leaving their room silently. The god glanced into Roxy's room and found the bed empty. Eyebrows drawn together as he walked into the room, looking around for the little girl. "Roxanne?" He called out calmly.

"I'm in here." A small voice was heard in the walking closet. He walked over and opened the almost closed door. Roxy was unpacking her suitcase, putting the old clothes on the shelves in neat piles. She didn't have that much, it only filled two shelves to be exact, but Loki found it endearing.

"Good morning." Loki said with a warm smile and leaned on the door frame and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Good morning." She answered and looked at him with a shy look. She was still dressed in pajamas, or to be correct, a white t-shirt with a bear on the front and yellow sweatpants.

"Would you like some breakfast?" Loki asked her and motioned for Roxy to follow him to the kitchen. She nodded and followed him out. They got to the kitchen Loki went to the fridge and started taking out supplies to make pancakes. When he looked back at the girl she was trying to get up on one of the high chairs they had around the kitchen island. "You want some help with getting up?" He asked her as he took out a bowl to mix everything in. She tried a couple of more times until she gave up and nodded to him. "Just like your father." Loki chuckled as he walked over to her and lifted her up onto the chair.

"What do you mean?" She asked him with a low, but curious voice.

Loki took everything over to the kitchen island, so he could talk to her while cocking. "Your father can be quite stubborn as well, always trying to solve it himself before accepting help from anyone." The god had a warm smile on his face, the kind of smile that Roxy had seen on her grandmother's face whenever she talked fondly about her grandfather.

Loki continued to prepare the batter for the pancakes and Roxy just couldn't keep in her curiousness. "Can I ask you something?" She asked him carefully. Loki smiled at her and nodded while he walked over to a cabin to get a frying pan. "Can you do magic?" She asked him and saw him freeze in his movements for a second.

He walked to the stove and puts it on. "I can, but not as much as I used to." He answered her truthfully. Loki turned back to her with a smile that wasn't as warm as a minute ago. "I have some magic left, but not the one that can protect me." He looked down into the bowl. "Or others." He ended and sighed.

Roxy nodded and looked down at her hands. "What can you do then?" She asked him and slid a finger over the small cuts on her hands.

"I can heal your hands." Loki answered and looked at her hands. Roxy looked up at him and met warm green eyes. Eyes that could make you trust a person. She usually never trusted people that had those eyes, but Loki was someone that was trusted by the man that was her father, so she should trust him to. She reached out her hands towards him and Loki put one hand over them, closing his eyes. Roxy could feel something tingle over her hands, a warm tingling and she watched with curiousness as Loki's hands started to glow green. It was over in a minute when the glow on his hands disappeared and Loki puts his hand under hers. The cuts were gone and they were smooth, smoother then they had ever been.. She looked at her hands with amazement. Suddenly, a green butterfly appeared in her hand. It stayed there and twitched its wings slowly. But she didn't feel it on her hands, she could only see it. She looked up at Loki who was smiling at her. "I can do illusions to." He said with a smirk. The butterfly lifted from her hands, flew around her head and when it flew towards Loki it disappeared as it touched his forehead.

"Amazing." Roxy breathed out with wide eyes. Loki chuckled and took the bowl over to the stove.

"Want to bet that your father will wake up by the smell of pancakes?" Loki said with a wicked smirk as he poured some batter into the frying pan.

"Who wouldn't wake up by it?" Roxy said sarcastically and giggled.

They didn't have to wait long as the man they expected walked in with a tired smile on his face, wearing a pair of sweatpants and a tank top. When he saw his god and daughter giggle by his entrance he looked at them curiously. "Something tells me that you two expected me to wake up by the smell of pancakes." He said and strode over to Loki, who was still giggling and planted a soft kiss on the god's shoulder. "Good morning." He whispered against it.

"Good morning." Loki answered with a warm smile and flipped the pancake.

Tony turned to Roxy who was looking at her hands again, still with amazement. "I see my fiancé has helped the little heroine with her hands." Tony stated, earning both of them to look up at him. Roxy just smiled and nodded while Loki looked confusedly at him. "She saved a cat." He told Loki who nodded with a smirk and puts the pancake on a plate. "Did you sleep well?" Tony asked his daughter and walked over to sit beside her. Roxy nodded and pulled back some long strands of hair out of her face.

Loki came over with two plates covered with pancakes. He placed them in front of Tony and Roxy and walked over to get his and the syrup. "Are we going to go shopping today?" Roxy asked excitedly as she took a bite of the pancake.

"I need to talk to some important people today, so I was thinking that you and Loki could go shopping while I do that." Tony said and couldn't escape the sad feeling of sounding like his old man. "If that is okay with you two?" He asked them and looked at Loki who knew that he needed to tell the others about Roxy. Loki gave him a warm smile and nodded. Tony looked back at Roxy who did look a little sad not to have Tony with them. "If you want, we can have a movie night today?" He said with a smirk. That seemed to cheer her up as she smiled at him and nodded.

"Let's eat up and then make ourselves ready to go." Loki said and took a bite of his pancake.

Roxy ate fairly quickly, placed her dish in the sink and then disappeared into her room to shower. Tony moved over to Loki, who stood by the dishwasher, putting their dirty plates inside as the god felt strong arms around his waist, pulling him against a broad and strong chest. Loki placed his hands on the strong arms that were holding him and turned his head so he could see chocolate brown eyes. Tony rested his head on Loki's shoulder and nuzzled his nose into the raven black hair. "I love you." He whispered and planted a soft kiss behind Loki's ear.

Loki smiled and caressed one of Tony's arms. "I love you too." He said and took one of Tony's hands up to his lips and kissed his knuckles. Loki turned in Tony's arms and wrapped his arms around his fiancé's neck and pulled him in for a deep kiss. The genius pushed Loki against the counter and pressed against him as he was allowed entrance to the god's mouth.

Loki moaned by the feeling of Tony's hands moving from his hips to under his t-shirt. But they both knew that it wasn't a good time to disappear into their room, not while Roxy was still in the house. So they parted and rested their foreheads against each other, regaining their breaths and calming down from the small arousal that had started by the kiss. "Better get ready." Tony said and reluctantly moved away from Loki, but took his hand and led him to their bedroom.

Loki looked at a cute purple dress that would suit Roxy perfectly. He looked over to where he had seen the girl last and saw the top of her hair amongst clothes. Loki smiled to himself, let the one bag they had got from the last store hang on his forearm as he looked for a suitable size. He suddenly froze when he felt something similar to a gun was pressed to his lower back. "Come with us silently or the girl will get hurt." A dark voice was heard behind him.

"May I ask who wants to meet me?" Loki asked calmly, keeping an eye on the oblivious girl who kept looking at clothes.

"Do you know Mr. Hammer?" The man said sarcastically and then pressed the gun harder into his spine. Loki closed his eyes and let the bag slide down to his hand where he gripped it tightly before letting it fall to the ground.

Roxy had found five different shirts that she wanted to try on and was now looking for Loki, but she didn't find him. She started to panic and walked around probably four more rounds before she finally saw the bag that was hers that Loki had been holding for her. She walked over to the bag and almost jumped back when green glowing letters appeared on the front.

Roxanne, go back to the tower!

Tell your father that Hammer got me.

Loki.

Roxy grabbed the bag and ran out of the store. She looked around to figure out where she was and what the quickest way back to the tower was. She decided that now was not a good time to be stubborn and walked up to a man who was looking at his telephone. "Please help me, it's an emergency." Roxy pleaded to him.

"Calm down, how can I help you?" The man asked kindly and crouched down to her level.

"I need to call my father, but I don't have is number." Roxy told him, almost jumping from one foot to another.

"Well, then what's your father's name?" The man asked and started to move his thumb over his phone.

"Tony Stark." Roxy said and started to get her hope up for some help.

The man snorted and puts his phone away. "Little shit, you seriously believed that you could prank me." The man growled and walked away, leaving Roxy with wide eyes.

Roxy looked around and walked up to a woman instead, asking her if she could help. "Tony Stark doesn't have a child." The woman stated and walked away.

Roxy walked up to several people, hoping that someone would believe her, but no one did. She felt lost and small, something she hadn't felt in a long time. She looked up at the buildings and saw the Avengers tower. She had to run and fast.

Tony stood by the windows in the living room with a glass of scotch in his hand and looking out over New York. When Loki and Roxy had left, Tony told Jarvis to get the Avengers up to him, except Loki of course. So now he stood there, waiting, figuring out how he would tell them. He hadn't come to the full realization himself yet. The elevator doors opened and the team walked in with curious faces.

"What now? Is Loki pregnant or something?" Clint asked and crashed down on one of the couches, the team sitting down around him and Natasha slapped Clint on the back of his head.

Tony chuckled. "No, he is not." He said and walked closer to them and placed the empty glass down on the coffee table. He took a deep breath and looked at them with serious eyes. "I have a daughter."

Everyone looked shocked except Natasha, but maybe she masked how shocked she was. "Why am I not surprised?" Or maybe she wasn't shocked at all.

"Please tell me that you did not make a girl pregnant while dating Loki." Clint said with a stern voice and eyed Tony. Thor's jaw clenched and he clutched to the arm chair he was sitting on.

"No! Of course not! She is eight, so she was conceived before I even was kidnapped." Tony cleared out. "She is going to live here with me and Loki because her mother committed suicide a few days ago." He told them and sat down on the armrest next to Bruce.

"When is she coming?" Steve asked with a calm voice?

"She arrived yesterday, actually. She is out shopping with Loki as we speak." Tony told them with a warm smile.

"How is Loki taking it?" Bruce asked and looked up at Tony.

Tony chuckled. "Well, he was the one who convinced me to take her home while I was panicking and this morning he made pancakes for her, so I would say 'swell'." Tony said with a smirk.

"My brother has always been good with children." Thor said with a big smile.

"It didn't stop Odin from taking his." Tony muttered bitterly. Thor was just about to argue back when the elevator doors opened and a little girl on the verge of tears, ran out, but stopped when she saw the team. Tony got to his feet and walked over to her, crouched down and placed his hands gently on her arms. "Roxy, what happened? Where is Loki?" He asked her as calmly as possible.

"Loki's been taken… by… Hammer." Roxy managed to get out between sobs and tears streaming down her red cheeks. Tony didn't care anymore that they didn't know each other that well yet, she was crying and she was his daughter, so he wrapped his arms around her. Roxy clutched to his shirt, crying her eyes out by the panic and worry.

Tony looked over at the team who stared wide eyes at the scene of the billionaire and his daughter. But when he narrowed his eyes towards them made them get to their feet and start working. "Luckily it's Hammer and he sucks at these kinds of stuff." Natasha murmured and got her phone out.

"Stark, let us take care of this. You should stay here with you daughter." Steve said and joined Clint, Natasha and Thor in the elevator, making it impossible for Tony to protest.

Tony sighed and lifted Roxy to carry her over to the couches where Bruce still were seated, watching the new dad comfort his little girl. Tony sat down with his daughter in his lap, still holding her close as she kept on crying. "You did good, sweetheart." He whispered into her ear.

"They didn't believe me." Roxy said with a very low voice, Tony almost didn't hear her.

"Who?" Tony asked and stroked her hair.

Roxy pulled away and used the sleeve from her jacket that she still had on to dry away the tears. "I asked people for help to call you, but when I told them who you were they just walked away." Roxy said. More tears appeared and she returned to clutching to Tony's shirt, hiding her face against his shoulder.

"I'm sorry. When Loki is back and everything is fine, I'm going to have a press conference and tell the world about you and Loki." Tony told her and looked over at Bruce who was still watching them. "Roxy, this is my friend Bruce." The girl pulled away and looked over at the doctorm who smiled at her warmly.

Hope you like the cliffhanger :P
