((Well, we've reached the end of the first part of Save My Life. Thanks to everyone who helped me make this one of my best stories!Sequeal soon to come!))
Tony and Loki laid on the couch, watching e news. Loki was laying cuddled in Tony's arms. "Tonight on E! News!" the happy reporter chimed. It had been nearly two months since the fight with Thanos. He was still frozen where he stood in Jotunhiem. "A mysterious young woman has been seen making trips to Stark Towers." Pictures of Loki disguised as a woman flashed on the screen.
"Nice beauty shots babe." Tony laughed. Loki shook his head.
"I try my best to always look phenomenal." The god snickered. Tony kissed him.
"Loks?" Tony asked with trepidation.
"Yes, Anthony?" Loki's ice cold blue eyes met his lover's deep chocolate ones.
"Are you...nervous about the twins?" Tony's eyes shone with fear.
"Anthony, I've raised four other children. I will have no trouble helping you raise the twins." Loki smiled, but saw the nervous want of alcohol in Tony's eyes. "You will be a wonderful father, Tony. I know that for a fact." Loki sat up, and pulled Tony up as well. They kissed for a while.
"Tony, Loki- Oh, sorry guys." Bruce blushed lightly as he walked in on Tony and Loki kissing. Loki sat up.
"Hi Bruce!" Tony grinned. The scientist shook his head.
"Hi. Come on Loki. Let's take a look at the twins." The trio headed down stairs. Everything nessaceary to support premature children were set up in twos. One for each of the twins. Loki was frightened at the thought of delivering them early, because most of the children born early on Asgard died.
Loki laid on the cold metal table. His nerves were getting best of him.
Tony and Bruce were laughing and smiling. Tony was trying to quell his nerves about becoming a father, while Loki encouraged him. Bruce sanitized the area on Loki's stomach where the incision for the twins would be made. The doctor checked the God's vitals.
"Loki, are you okay?" He asked. Loki just nodded, trying to get enough air. "Just breathe, Loki. They'll be just fine." Bruce assured. Loki nodded again, but began to hyperventilate.
"Loks, everything's fine." Tony grabbed The mischief maker's hand.
"Tony, he's having a panic attack. I have to put him under." Bruce placed an anesthesia mask on Loki's face. "This will put you to sleep. When you wake up, the twins will be in the incubators. Everything will be just fine." the god drozily nodded. He breathed gently, as the anesthesia kicked in.
"Is that dangerous?" Tony asked. Bruce shrugged, and readied the scalpel.
"It can be. It depends on the situation. He's safe for now." tony nodded. "Trust me, he's in good hands."
Loki's eyes fluttered open. He felt strange. Lighter, almost. He wasn't in the lab anymore. He was in his room.
"Do not sit up, Brother." Thor ordered. Loki Blinked.
"Thor? Where are they?" Loki breathed. Thor smiled.
"They are well. Do not worry. The Man Of Iron will bring them to you soon."
"Are they strong enough?" Loki asked. There was a slight knock on the door.
"Loks? You awake?" Tony asked. Thor got up, and stepped aside. Tony pushed the door open, two small bundles wrapped in his arms. "I thought you'd want to meet them." Tony gently sat next to his lover. Loki gasped.
Their son was pale, with a small wisp of black hair on the top of his head. His eyes remained closed, having just been born. Their daughter was just as beautiful. Her skin was a deep olive tone like Tony's, and her eyes were open. Despite her Stark like looks, Loki had to remember she was Thanos' daughter. Her eyes glowed a brilliant violet.
"Hello." Loki whispered. Tony gently handed the boy to Loki. He squirmed slightly, and settled into his mother's arms.
"Don't be mad, Loki." Tony grinned.
"What?"
"I named them..." Tony bit his lip. Loki glared at him.
"What are their names?" He asked, gently cradling his son.
"Asia-Hope Sophia Elizabeth Stark and Derek Anthony Edward Stark." Tony leaned back slightly, as Loki pondered the names.
"I think they are perfect."
"Really?"
"Yes, they are our Asia-Hope and Derek Anthony. How cold I be angry?" Loki kissed Tony.
"One more thing. We need to be super careful with Derek."
"Why?"
"He has hemophilia. It's a disease where someone's blood doesn't clot right. So, if he gets cut or even just a bruise, it could..."
"Kill him." Loki finished. He looked down at his fragile boy. "He's still perfect."
"Yeah. They are."
