Ask me a question
And I'll fill you full of lies
I know now the truth is bigger than my disguise
The message that I sent was shot down long ago
All I wanted was a simple yes but you said no

Lyrics- BOWLING FOR SOUP

"Where did you go on Saturday?" Loki asked as he took his usual seat at their usual table.

"I got bored."

"Oh. You didn't come over on Sunday either."

"We didn't have Mexican zis week."

"Oh."

Kurt was a bad liar.

"You didn't come to me."

"I didn't want to get you in trouble." This was actually true. But also Loki figured Kurt didn't want to see him. He was right.

"Oh."

"Kurt I told Tony I didn't want to-"

"It's fine."

"He was drunk."

"I said it's fine."

They spent the next few minutes in silence before Logan arrived and sat across from Loki. "Hey squirt."

Kurt got up and left, mumbling something about seeing Loki later. Logan just raised his eyebrows. "Who trod on his tail?" Loki just sighed and dropped his head on the table.

Kurt was wondering if this whole relationship thing was a good idea. All those movies where the two best friends finally fall in love, they never showed what happened after. Maybe there was a reason for that. It's not that Kurt no longer loved Loki, or that they no longer wanted to be friends, it was just… Awkward. But what Kurt did know, was that no boyfriend ever just became a friend again. Kurt knew it was either this or nothing. There was no going back. And Kurt didn't want to lose Loki. Loki didn't want to lose Kurt.

Things had also become somewhat awkward between Loki and Tony. They were never the best of friends before, but the awkward glances every time they passed were becoming too much for Tony, and so he cornered Loki the first chance he got. "Loki."

"Raven, if that's you then you can just fuck off."

"What? No. I just wanted to talk to you about the other night."

"Right. Oh." Loki grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into an empty classroom. "Look, I don't know what you think happened, but I want to make it perfectly clear, I'm with-"

"Kurt. I know." Tony interrupted, but just as Loki was about to speak again, Tony cut him off. "I know, that's fine. That's really… fine. I don't want to… Look…" Tony seemed to have trouble continuing. "I'm not looking for… That. Listen, I was very drunk, and I'm sorry if… You know…" He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly.

"Actually I don't."

Tony glared at him and Loki smirked in turn. "If I came across… wrong. I just wan to be friends."

"Is that it?"

"Um… yes?"

"Well that was hardly worth my time. Permission granted Stark." Loki said, turning swiftly out the door.

"Permission for what?" Tony's voice shouted after him.

Loki's head peered back around the doorframe. "Permission to try and be my friend of course." Loki winked at him menacingly and then disappeared, leaving Tony standing in the empty classroom in with the biggest grin on his face.

"Loki?" Thor knocked twice before entering Loki's room to find his brother leaning back on his desk chair.

"Can you not read?"

"Of course I can brother."

Loki sighed and pointed to the door where Enter under pain of death by skinning. Was scrawled in marker pen in Loki's elegant script. "Nevermind. What do you want?"

"I have come to live with you."

"What?" Loki's laugh filled the room. "Says who?"

"Says Director Fury."

"What?" That got Loki's attention.

"I have no recollection of my attack on you yesterday, but Mr Fury does not believe me. He said I have to learn to befriend you. I am so sorry Brother- I really can't remember."

The Bloody great oaf. He actually believed Loki's lie and that he just couldn't remember. Loki had two choices: Confess it was actually him and face his punishment, or put up with Thor until Fury decided they were 'friends'.

"But I have to spend my weekends in the same house as you. Is that not enough?" Loki was now standing, beginning to pace. Thor hated it when Loki paced. It usually meant Loki was about to maim him.

"It was not my decision Loki, but do you not agree it will be fun to be rooming together?"

"But I don't want a roommate. I am quite happy being the only one here without a roommate."

"Well if you had one, then I would not be able to live with you, and that would be sad."

Now that was an idea.

"So I just need to persuade someone to room with me. When does he want you in here."

"By the beginning of next week."

So that gave Loki five days plus the rest of the evening.

-Kurt was out of the question. Loki was sure the teachers knew they were together- they would never allow it.
-Eric roomed with Charles.
-Hank roomed with Bruce.
-Logan roomed with Scott Summers (They hated each other but Logan wouldn't give it up or he'd lose the satisfaction of banging Scott's girlfriend.)And that just about concluded his list of friends. Shit.

Well, there was always Stark.

And thus, plot is less thin.
