Loki froze in his seat at the words. He would only assume she was joking, she had seen what he had looked like in his memory but to actually see him like that up close. He wondered how she took all this so lightly, and why she helped him.
''No!'' He said louder with a clenched jaw, she backed up a little and gave him an apologetic look.
''Loki i already saw you in your memory, i just want to see it up close.'' She said quietly biting her lip patiently, Loki clenched and unclenched his fingers and put on a fake grin, anger and worry still shown in his eyes though.
''Why would you want to see a monster, like me?'' Loki asked raising an eyebrow, he settled into his chair and folded his arms, closing his eyes. She snorted laying her head on her pillow with a grin, running her hand through her hair. She couldn't believe that a God was sitting in her room, and they were almost having a normal conversation, apart from the monster part.
''Monster's and bad people are more interesting, in the movies at least'' Iris mused, her voice going an octave higher for some reason. She got underneath the blankets and turned to her side looking at Loki briefly who looked surprised, he ran his fingers along the chair's arm one by one annoyingly with the handcuff's. He leaned forward with a ghost of a sneer on his face.
''Do i interest you, Iris?'' He whispered with a velvet voice, it was the first time he'd used her name, or at least felt like it. It ran a shiver down her spine and she chewed on her lip, fighting the urge to smile. She very much wanted to slap his handsomeness off of him.
''Maybe, Loki. I'm tired, im going to sleep. If i wake up and you are trying to kill me, i'll kill you,'' She said cheerfully, Loki looked up looking at her beneath his brows, her face looked much more childlike when it was facing him like that, her eyes were shut and she was grimacing badly.
''Are you hurt?'' He asked, trying to sound uninterested but failing miserably, she shook her head letting tears run from her closed eyes. He stood up and ventured to her bed kneeling beside her.
''You have the keys for these do you not?'' Loki asked as she opened her eyes and sat up, her heart pounding at his closeness. She scoffed smirking and rubbing her eyes.
''How do i know you won't strangle me?'' She asked, pursing her lips, he shook his head and silently laughed.
''My word.''
She sighed pulling the ''key'' from her bra which Loki tried not to look at despite her shirt falling down passed her shoulder. They key was really a piece of technology and not even in the shape of them, she looked at Loki's hands and found the slit and put it in, the handcuffs beeped a blue color and they fell of of him effortlessly. Iris eased back expecting him to do something, but all he did was stand up and glance at his wrists and rub them.
''Now, where are you hurt, misgardian?'' He asked with a small smirk as he looked down at her, they looked at eachother for a long, long moment. His eyes looked greener to her now, less blue. They suited him. She shook her thoughts out of her head and licked her lips blushing.
''My arm, i think when Natasha and i were..practicing she hit it more harder than she thought.'' Iris babbled, wincing as she manouvered herself so that she was facing Loki dangling her legs over the bed's side. Loki gulped and then gingerly pulled up her white blouse like silky sleeve and widened his eyes at what lay under it. It looked as if the hit had bruised her all the way to her bone, it was a strange purple colour and looked strange against her alabastar skin. He held her arm out for a moment glancing at it scrutingly, he also saw the scars on her wrist. There were smaller, bruise like objects on her arm that were in the form of fingertips, his lips formed into a thin line and wondered who that was from. They were old, as old as the scars.
''The hit shouldn't have injured you like that. You have weak bones, human. Why is that?'' Loki muttered, conjuring up healing magic. It would drain him slightly, but he found that he couldn't just leave her like that.
''I don't know.'' She said looking away, his touch left a tingling sensation. He began to move his hand over the bruise over and over again, a different feeling came from that and it felt magicall. He kept moving his hand and looked up at her, frowning. He stopped the magic and looked at his work, it had healed signifcantly though there was an outline fo it. He placed his fingers where the marks of fingertips were, not wanting to let go of her just yet.
''Who are responsible for these?'' He questioned letting go as she pulled her arm away and put the sleeve down, pouting.
''Don't worry. It feels better now.'' Iris said softly, smiling in thanks. He sighed, running a hand through his hair which she found attractive. She was going to avoid his question no matter what it took.
She yawned climbing back into her bed. Loki watched her eyelids get heavier and heavier, he had no idea how long he sat there watching her, feeling strange as she began to sleep he ventured back to the seat shutting his own eyes. If someone had inflicted pain to Iris he decided he'd split his skull in half, and drink from it. Sleep overtook him despite his thoughts.
Loki watched himself and Iris in the dream, they were in Asgard. She wore Asgardian clothing and it suited her well, she looked much like an Asgardian though her hair was lighter than most of the others. Her clothing was green as Loki's was, and she wore a green flower in her hair. They both stood together watching Thor be king, with smiles on their faces,genuine smiles. Loki lent out his hand to her with a grin which she was familiar with, and she took it letting him guide her to his chamber's.
''Loki, your brother wants you to be there!" She squealed laughing as he spun her around and placed her on the bed so she was underneath him.
''Let him.'' Loki said chuckling, and placing his hand on her cheek.
''You are the most fairest human there ever was.'' Loki said with a cheeky grin, she shoved him lightly rolling her pretty little blue eyes at him.
''Shut up, Loki.'' She laughed looking up at him and letting him kiss her roughly.
Loki woke up with wide eyes gasping for breathe, standing up. He couldn't believe himself. Dreaming about things like that with a human, he scolded himself. His eyes slanted over to the bathroom door which light peeked out of around the door's edges, he gulped wondering how he would be able to even look at her now. He paused as he tilted his head hearing a snuffling noise from inside the bathroom, crying?
He returned quickly to his seat and shut his eyes, hearing her walk back to her bed.
''Why won't you just leave me alone?'' She whispered out, and at first he thought she meant him, but she didn't.
''Get out of my head.'' She cried loudly, he heard the rustle of blankets and assumed she was trying to sleep. He felt his mouth dry as he remembered his dream, shaking his head and sighing.
''Wake up'' Someone hissed in her ear, she jolted from her sleep her heart feeling like it was pounding out of her chest. The top of her head collided with Loki's chin with a crack! She groaned as did he.
''What is that device? Is it a threat?'' Loki asked pointing at the beeping alarm clock, Iris slammed her hand on the off button and shook her head laying back down and covering her head with a pillow. Loki pulled the pillow off of her quickly, his eyes narrowing.
''Are you trying to suffocate yourself?'' He asked with clenched teeth, she shook her head grabbing the pillow from him and covering her face again, the sunlight pierced through the room and it annoyed her.
''Umh thried'' Came her muffled response from the pillow, Loki took this as ''im tired'', though he wasn't sure. He sighed at her human needs and stood there watching her. She suddenly moved the pillow so that her eyes and mouth showed, looking at him blinking.
''You know, for the God of Mishchief and a murderer you aren't very scary.'' She mused, looking up at him.
''Oh aren't I? Is that a challenge, human?'' Loki asked her with his brow raised, ''mmh'' was her response. Loki tilted his head humming an Asgardian song, wasn't scary? Please. She is merely a crazy tiny human, thought Loki. He flashed a humourless grin though she could not see it.
''Would you like to see how absolutely scary i can be?'' He asked her pulling her pillow away and tossing it at the window, she sat up her eyes wide. Before her Loki had changed into the ''ávatar'' he really was, maybe Loki thought seeing him in the flesh would make her afraid, but she was only interested. His eyes were a bright red and they looked at her with anger, his markings on his blue skin were amazing. She made out that she was frightened and backed away with wide eyes, and Loki sat back beleiving her, with a triumphant smirk on his face until she started laughing and his smirk fell.
''Nice try, Loki. You only look like an Avatar.'' She said standing up and stretching beside him, he shook his head and pinned her to the wall by slamming his fist by her head.
''Look at me! Look at me. I am a monster! Why do you ignore that!? You idiotic human, .me.'' Loki spat at her, she only looked upset and angry. Her eyes flashed with a strange look and she looked up at him with a smile, standing on her tiptoes she placed her lips on his cheek as a kiss, Loki was so surprised he didn't even think and he returned to his asguardian look. He snaked his arm around her neck and pulled her closer to him locking his lips with hers and brushing his against hers in a strange way of a kiss that left Iris flushed and blushing. It was only a peck, but it had felt like wonderland to her. Her heart beat was so fast she feared it might have gone out.
''See? A monster would have killed me, not kissed me back Loki.''
