"You hate each other... because you liked each other...?" Steve was still trying to make sense of the story he had just been told.

Tony rubbed his forehead, he had completely ignored the fact that he was crying. After growing tired of sitting at the island counter, the two had sat down on the floor back to back, holding each others hands.

"No. We hate each other because I'm shallow and care to much about what people think. But then you came along and I felt... Well I don't know what I felt but when we kissed it was like a whole new experience! I'd never been kissed like that before.

"Then, when we did it in the back of my car... God Steve, I'd never seen anything more beautiful than your sweat covered face."

Steve's face flushed, and he tightened his grip on Tony's hands. "I was so depressed when you reacted the way you did. I couldn't believe I'd screwed it up again. I had a razor in my hand the entire night, granted I never used it but-"

"A razor! Oh shit!" He pulled his hands away from Tony's and scrambled up to his room. He grabbed his phone off the charger and entered Loki's speed dial- 143, although he'd never told anyone that.

Tony walked into the room as the phone began ringing. Three rings and it went to voicemail, Loki had ignored it. "Get your shoes on." Steve told the brunette.

"What are we doing?" Tony asked, following down the stairs after him. Steve slid his shoes on and grabbed his keys from the counter.

"We're going to fix this."

As soon as Steve pulled into the Odinson drive way he was out of the car. Tony pulled the keys that he had unconcernedly left in the ignition out and followed behind him.

Steve pounded impatiently on the door until a very irritated Thor answered. "You're brother! Where is he?!" Steve shouted, grabbing Thor's arms.

"Let me go." Thor insisted, Steve obliged him.

Thor punched him in the eye, not hard enough to break any bones, but hard enough that it'd be black and blue for awhile. "What the hell did you do!?" Thor asked, pulling the blond up by his collar.

"Okay, I deserved that." Steve managed, trying to collect his thoughts. "But I brought Tony here because he has to explain something to you. Please let me see Loki."

"Me!?" Tony exclaimed. Thor looked past the blond to the brunette.

"Is bringing him along suppose to win me over?" Thor asked. "Because it really just makes me angrier."

"Think of it as more of a sacrifice." He put Steve down.

"What!?" Tony looked horrified.

Before Thor could interject anymore, Steve ran into the house and up the stairs. "Loki!?" He shouted, pounding his fists on the door.

"Go away!" Loki hissed.

"Loki let me in!"

"I'd rather not."

"Just unlock the damn door or I'll kick it in!"

Silence came over them and Steve started to panic. He rammed his shoulder into the door several times until it really started to hurt.

"The door was never locked genius." Loki finally shouted.

Steve cursed at himself before entering the room. He stopped in his tracks when he entered. "Are you happy now?! Because this is what you were begging to see! I'm a fucking wreck, Steve! Don't you get it!?"

Loki was sweating like crazy. His eyes were bloodshot and underneath them he had very dark, very prominent, bags. His six cuts had closed, but he still had stains from where the blood had run, his skin was so pale in comparison.

Steve walked over to the bed and threw his arms around Loki's neck. He pulled the younger teen as close as he could to himself, despite the fact that Loki was fighting with every ounce of strength he had, which honestly wasn't much.

"I hate you! Let me go! I fucking hate you God dammit! Seriously just leave me alone!" Loki shouted. Then he suddenly broke down. "I'm so sorry Steve! I love you so much! You're so important to me! I- I." His sobs became uncontrollable.

Steve rested one hand on the back of Loki's neck and his other arm wrapped around his waist. "It's okay. I've got you." Loki wrapped his arms around his neck.

"You knew?" He managed between labored breaths.

"I didn't, but now I do. I understand why you're mad; you have every right to be. But if you want give this, if you want to give us, anoth-" Loki cut him off.

"I don't want to." He said.

"I was afraid of that." Steve pulled away, looking into Loki's green eyes, tears still flowing.

"I'm sorry but I can't do it. I'm so messed up right now. And you said yourself that you have feelings for Tony. I- I just can't do it anymore."

Steve placed his hand on Loki's cheek, rubbing it with his thumb. "Loki I'm sorry." Loki placed his hand on Steve's.

"Me too." He smiled and kissed Steve.

I figured I'd finish off the story tonight since my computers cooperating. Well, sort of finish it anyway. I have an epilogue, but I'm not sure if I want to put it up. What do you guys think? Tell me in the reviews! Or PM me, doesn't matter to me!
