AN: I owe this chapter to my friend, who I won't name but knows who he is. Thank you for greatly improving my writing.
Chapter 12: Love in times of hurt
"What the hell were you thinking? She blew up her room and you were worrying about Loki? She has every right to want to kill you right know, and I wouldn't stop her!" Jake was pacing in front of Luke, who was sitting on the bed with his head in his hands. His hair, which he'd been growing out since he'd joined the avengers, flopped into his eyes. Tears began to run down his face.
I can't believe I hurt her like that. That's all that was running through his head.
Jake crouched down in front of Luke and lifted his head so that he could look into Luke's eyes. "I'm sorry; I didn't mean to have a go at you. Forgive me?" Luke didn't say anything, his mind caught up in a web of hatred and confusion. "Baby, please…" Jake stuttered, yet again there was no reply from Luke. Jake read this as his cue to leave, he stood up and turned around when suddenly something grabbed him from behind, and he turned back around.
"Wha-" Jake started to speak, but unable to finish his word as his lips met Luke's, he went to pull away but Luke had him pinned against himself at the waist. Luke had started trying to fight his way into Jake's mouth, at this point Jake had given up on the idea of trying to pull away. It was now a fight for the dominance- who was more powerful? Luke's hands made their way up to the bottom of Jake's shirt, he latched his hand on and delicately pulled of Jake's shirt, revealing a well-toned abs, this drove his motive even-more. It was Jake who first pulled away from the kissing to take a breath, he used this time to tease Luke; he was playing him where he wanted him. Suddenly moving his hands up Jake grabbed onto the bottom of Luke's shirt swiftly removing it from his body before placing his hands back down on Luke's bare chest and ramming him back against the wall. Luke let out a muffled groan, partly from the impact – partly from the feeling of their skin colliding. Luke couldn't stand just kissing anymore he pressed his full weight back against the wall and tugged down his jeans, leaving him standing in his boxers.
"Help me get out of mines" Jake said, Luke knelt down and started to undo the zipper on Jake's Jeans. Luke flushed with horror as he heard a voice in the corridor. Clint's. "Hey Luke, I thought we could grab some foo-"Clint looked on in surprise as he entered the room "It's… It's not what it looks like." Jake murmured. Apart from it was.
"It obviously is. Offer for food still stands. Tip for next time: get JARVIS to lock the door." Clint turned around and walked out the door. Luke and Jake looked at each other.
"Well that wrecked the mood. Do you want to get food or…." Luke grinned at Jake. He hoped it was the second option.
"We better go get food. You'll need the energy for what I'm going to do to you tonight."
"Now that's fighting talk! Come here you idiot." Luke leaned over and kissed Jake then handed him his clothes. As Luke turned around and bent over to grab his clothes, Jake slapped his butt. Luke swung round and glared at Jake. Jake smirked. Luke sighed and started to pull on his jeans. As he started hopping around the room trying to pull on his jeans, he fell over. Jake just started laughing then ran and jumped onto Luke.
"Ow Ow Ow no need to break every bone in my body!" Luke looked up into Jake's eyes. For a moment he thought they flashed silver, but it must have been a trick of the light, he thought. He curled his hands into Jake's hair and brought his head sown so he could kiss him. They started to kiss more and more passionately, rolling from side to side. In their passion, they didn't hear the heavy footsteps of army boots stomping along the corridor. Alexis slammed the door open, shocking the boys that they'd been caught again.
"For fuck's sake, fuck all you want but keep the bloody noise down. I'm pissed off and tired, and Loki and I were trying to sleep but you two rabbits woke me up. Do it again and I will rip your intestines out slowly over a course of days, while your still alive. Kapeesh?" Alexis was pissed. Her hair was a mess from sleeping, and she really didn't want to know when her best friend was having sex. WAY too much info.
"Alright Lexi, I'm sorry. Do you forgive me for earlier? I was being a dick. I'm really, truthfully sorry." Luke stood up and began to walk towards Lex.
"It hurt. Do it again, and don't expect me to have your back." Luke hugged her and began to stroke her hair. She began to pull away then she took a quick step back. "Put a top on, it's not a shoot for Calvin Klein." Jake laughed at that, and Lex flashed him an impish grin before disappearing in a gold, blue and green flash.
"That girl." Luke muttered and turned around to find Jake standing right behind him fully dressed. "Wow babe, don't do that!" Jake laughed and pushed Luke out the door. "Jake, I need my top!"
"No you don't, you're too fit to wear a top, and anyway I want to see Clint's reaction. I think he has the hots for you." Luke raised an eyebrow at this then walked into the kitchen. Clint looked up and forgot to breathe. Shit Luke was topless. He started to get a bit hot under the collar, and that was a problem because he was wearing his skin tight Hawk suit.
"Alright guys, there's food on the table. I need to go find Stark." Clint walked out of the room without making eye contact with either of them. Luke and Jake looked at each and dived into the food.
Clint hurried down to Stark's room and banged the door. Tony opened the door.
"What's the problem Legolas?"
"I need your assistance." That was their code for "I need to get laid".
"Well come right in then." Tony grinned and Clint went into the room.
When Bruce asked JARVIS where Tony was 2 hours later the AI responded, "In his room and doesn't want to be disturbed."
When Nat asked Luke where Clint was he responded with a mouth full of prawn crackers, "Went to find Tony."
Nat rolled her eyes. She needed to talk to Clint, but wasn't going to interrupt when he was getting "assistance" from Tony. Men, she thought.
