Chapter 4- Apology Accepted?

"Loki, wait!" Tony shouted to the retreating figure." I'm sorry, I shouldn't of touched you" Loki didn't stop. He ran to his room, blindly wiping away tears as he slammed the door shut, leaving Tony alone.

Loki was bored. He was sat on the floor, next to the bed when Tony knocked on his door 48 hours later.
"Loki please, it's been 2 days now! You can't hide in there forever!" There was no reply. "Okay then, I've put the groceries in the kitchen and I'll leave this here. I'm sorry Loki." Tony realized that he wouldn't get an answer so he put down the box and went back to his workshop. Hearing Tony's retreating footsteps he waited a couple more minutes til the whirring of the elevator had completely ceased before opening the door. There was no sign of Tony. The mysterious parcel sat on the floor, too tempting to dismiss. On the parcel there was a note. He took the parcel and note inside, placed the package on the table before unfolding the note.

'Loki,
I am truly sorry for what I did, I realize you might not want to see me for a while, but if you need me I will be down in my workshop. I will be back in two days to replenish your groceries, tell JARVIS to leave me a message if you need anything in particular. I'm sorry Loki.'

The note seemed to pull on Loki's heart strings. He even had to hold back a few tears, how had this man made he feel this way from a simple hand-written apology? Loki put the note in his back pocket, collected the package from the table and sat down on one of the sofa facing the 60 inch TV. He pulled the lid off the box and found... books! Loki had always loved books, often spending most his time in the palace library's in Asgard while his brother was out sparring with the warriors three and Lady Sif. He always loved the smell of the ancient books on Asgard.
He sifting through the many books, all worn and in some places torn but readable never the less. He picked out one that piqued his interest, Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone. He began reading and had finished it in less than an hour. Loki had found it interesting how mortals perceived magic.
The main protagonist, Harry, was a wizard. He is born with magic, lucky sod, and his parents were killed my The Dark Lord when Harry was very young. He was raised in a broom cupboard by his neglectful aunt and uncle, and also resides with their spoiled brat of a son, Dudley. In the beginning he has no idea he is a wizard, **I mean come on, if you had magical powers from birth, don't you think you would of known about it? Magic is an energy running through you. I have become so attached to my magic I couldn't live with out it, it's part of me now, if I lost it I would simply die.** So he gets loads of letters but his uncle doesn't let him read them, he destroys them and moves to a small island to try and hide from whomever is sending them. Hagrid finds them though and gives Harry his letter, Hagrid explains to Harry that he is in fact a wizard. Harry then goes to Hogwarts and learns how to cast spells and other forms of magic, like alchemy, or as they call it Potions.
He then makes friends and they have an adventure etcetera, etcetera. Not as good as Lord of the Rings but still a fun read, he would have to thank Anthony, when he had truly forgiven him...

2 days later
Loki still had Anthony's iPod. Today Tony would coming by to bring fresh food and some books Loki had asked JARVIS to order. Loki felt sick with anticipation, he couldn't sit still.
At around 10am Loki heard the elevator. It was Tony. " Heyya Loki" he said cheerfully putting the bags he held on the table "so I've been thinking, since you aren't from around here that you have never had pancakes, am I right?" He asked. Loki shook his head, if course he had heard of them, but he had never bothered with trying Migardian food. "So you seriously need to try them. I had an afternoon off so I thought why not play chef for the god of mischief. I could add that to my cv: Tony Stark, genius, play boy philanthropist, head chef to a god. Has a nice ring to it." While he had been prattling on, Tony had been unloading the shopping and getting out various utensils.
Loki was confused. "Why?" he asked.
"What do you mean why?" Tony replied, confused at Loki's question.
"Why are you spending time with me making pancakes when I should be locked up at SHIELD? Why have you not just handed me to them? From what I've heard you're not on great terms with them, if you gave me over to them you would be well rewarded."
"Yeah sure, well rewarded for handing someone over to become their lab rat and resident voodoo doll. I don't like SHIELD'S methods. They would experiment on you and torture you just for the hell of it. I don't want that to happen to you" Tony replied calmly while mixing the batter.
"Why do you care, I deserve it" Loki replied looking down. Tony slammed the bowl down and grabbed the gods chin, pulling his face up to meet his eyes. "What colour are your eyes?" He asked staring into the taller man's eyes.
"Green" he replied confused, not only at the question but also at the hand that held his chin.
"They weren't 6 months ago. 6 months ago, they were blue." Tony said looking into Loki's bright emerald eyes, lost in their depths. Loki leaned forward- before abruptly grabbing Tony's hand and shoving it away from his face. "Lies!" He spat, quickly retreating from Tony's confused face. Tony was bewildered at Loki's sudden burst of anger, however he did not see the tears fall from those bright emerald eyes as the god slammed his bedroom door.
Tony turned to the bowl left sitting on the counter abandoned. No reason to waste perfectly good batter as he turned the hob on and grabbed a frying pan.
