Intertwined Pt 2: Unspoken truth

Pairing: Loki x Female Reader

Summary: You and Loki are bound together as soulmates through red string. You are also given poems to help you figure it out along the way.

Word count: 4.6k

Finally recovering from another episode of poems, you gained composer and looked towards Loki. He stared back at you with confusion in his eyes and you thought you saw his lips curve into a smirk. You were pulled from your thoughts when Steve started to talk.

"You know, last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everyone else, we ended up disagreeing" As he spoke, he took more and more steps closer to Loki.

"The soldier" The villain started to chuckle.

"Can I just say Mr Loki, you remind me of a green goblin" You stood beside Steve and Loki's smile dropped.

"A green goblin?" He almost seemed offended and you just nodded your head. "Guess you two are out of time"

"Oh, we're not the ones out of time" Steve replied and behind you Natasha zoomed closer in a ship. She pressed some buttons, which then opened a compartment to lower a gun type weapon.

"Loki, drop the weapon and stand down" The woman you remembered as Nat said on the PA.

"Well that ain't gonna work. While you're at it, you might as well ask him to leave earth" You spoke into an earpiece to talk to the woman and she didn't reply to your sarcasm.

Loki then fired another blue shot. This time to the ship behind you. Natasha steered and dodged, while Steve threw his shield at the villain. The shield came back to him like a boomerang and the man ran and hit Loki over the head with it.

When he didn't fall down, you ran and threw a punch, only to have your wrist get caught. You looked up at the villainous man before you and saw that his eyes were so green, they looked like shining emeralds. You hadn't realised that Loki also stared and Steve punched him again. You were both shook from whatever was happening and Loki and Steve started to hit each other with their weapons.

When Steve was knocked to the ground, you ran up and did a high kick. Loki dodged out the way and the two of you carried on sparring. Only, it was more like you were performing a dance.

"You're a good fighter darling" Loki said as he blocked another punch.

"You're not so bad yourself" You replied with a playful smirk as he grabbed your wrist and you twirled around. You decided to use the full of your power and you reached to touch the side of Loki's head. When you did, Loki just grabbed your wrist again but didnt remove it from its place.

"How did you get here?" Loki realised what you were doing and tried to stop himself from speaking.

"The Tesseract acted as a gateway and I walked through" He replied and then silently cursed himself for being suaded to answer you.

"And why is it, you're here?" You wanted him to answer one more question. You wanted to be of use to Fury and not let him down. However, Loki pushed your hand away before your powers could betray his silence.

"Not this time miss mischief" The male smirked at your annoyed expression.

The dance fighting continued until you were able to land a punch. Part of you meant to punch him like that, but another part felt horrible.

You were going to continue, when you heard rock music playing from the ship and something flying over. The closer it got, the more you saw that it was someone in a red metal suit. They lifted both their hands and shot golden blasts at the horned villain. He flew back to the ground against some concrete stairs and you slightly winced.

The flying figure landed in front of him and he stood in a fighting stance, with weapons popping out from the back of the suit. Steve and you joined him.

"Make your move Reindeer games" The figure spoke in a muffled voice. You laughed and everyone looked at you.

"What, it was funny. Although I like green goblin better" You shrugged and when you looked down, you saw Loki trying to hold back a smile.

Loki proceeded to move his hands apart and slowly, his armour disappeared. Almost like magic and left his heads up as if he was being arrested. In return, the figure also lowered his weapons.

"Good move" Loki stared at you intensely as Steve sighed.

"Mr Stark" You whipped your head around.

"Captain" Was the suits reply.

"Wait! That's Mr stark under there?" You pointed to the suit and Steve gave you a cold stare.

"Yes, it was in the debriefing package that you said you read. Did you not?" The man before you folded his arms and waited for your answer.

"I skimmed it actually" You looked away in embarrassment and Steve just rolled his eyes.

"Either way, good to meet you kid" Stark put his metal arm out and you shook it with a smile.

"Nice to meet you too, big fan of your work" The man chuckled before restraining the villain and loading him onto the ship. You walked behind with Steve.

"So, you're just gonna start acting like a dick to me" You snapped quietly.

"Let's not do this now, we're on a mission" Steve answered you shortly.

"To do what? We won against the villain and now all that's left is dropping him off. Plus he's harmless right now" You whispered back harshly.

"Still, lets not right now" He sped up in front and you huffed with annoyance.

Once the ship took off, you sat next to Loki and stared at him. Steve and Stark stood near the cockpit, all while giving you a confused glance. Stark had finally removed the mask on his suit and looked just like you imagined. He had brown spiky hair and a goatee.

Loki never looked in your direction, but you could tell he knew what you were thinking.

"I don't know anything about what we saw" The man turned to you with a sort of sad smile and you found yourself focusing in on his emerald eyes again.

"I wasn't thinking about that" When in actual fact you were and now you were looking at every detail that formed on his face.

"Don't try to deceive me, you're not the only one that can read minds darling"

"don't call me darling" You chuckled.

"Why ever not?" Loki spoke with such a soft tone, that you felt small Goosebumps on your arms.

"Because, you don't know me and i don't know you"

"Trust me, there'll be plenty of that in the future" The male gave you a wink.

"Sure" You smirked.

"Only to agent y/n" You heard Natasha whisper into her headset.

"I'll be right back green goblin, don't go anywhere" You patted the villain on the back and he smiled softly.

"I don't like it" You heard Steve say.

"What don't you like?" You asked and the man slightly glared at you.

"I don't like the fact that you're acting all chummy with that guy" Steve pointed to Loki.

"Are you jealous of a villain? Cause last I checked we weren't anything, exclusive" The last word rolled on your tongue like a bad taste.

"I'm not jealous" The blonde retaliated, but you could clearly see him clenching his jaw as if to stop himself from throwing any punches.

"Then what is it?"

"It has never been that easy. He packs a wallop" That's when you chuckled.

"Still, you are pretty spry for an older fellow" Stark joins. "What's your thing, Pilates?"

"What?" The question caught Steve off guard.

"It's like calisthenics. You must've missed a couple things, doing time as a Capsicle" Stark finished and you snickered at the new nickname until you calmed down.

"Nah, goes to the gym and punches the bags till they fall off" You reply without thinking.

"Fury didn't tell me he was calling you in" The blonde ignored your response.

"You told me you knew and that it was in the debriefing" You yelled.

"I lied, just wanted to mess with you" The male shrugged.

"Well, there's a lot of things Fury doesn't tell you" Stark answered.

Before you knew it, lightning was shooting out left, right and centre around the ship. It was almost like it came out of nowhere. Everyone looked to Loki and he had an expression that made him seem uncomfortable and worried.

"What, scared of a little thunder?" Steve asked.

"I'm not overly fond of who follows" You questioned his meaning and soon heard a thump on the top of the ship.

"I swear if that's an enemy of yours, I want no part of it Loki!" You stated as you threw your hands in the air. Stark put on his mask and opened the end hatch.

"What're you doing?" Steve asked and a tall figure dropped on the platform.

"Stark is apparently being hospitable and letting this asshole in" You gestured to a man who wore some type of silver armour and a red cape. He had long hair, which was blonder than Steve's and a stubble. "Sorry sir, would you like anything to drink?" You sarcastically gestured for the man to enter and bowed.

Tony stood in front and the stranger smashed an unseemly large hammer into his chest, leaving him to fly backwards. The man then moved over to where Loki was and pulled him up to face him. They stared for a few seconds before Loki was dragged out the ship.

"Get back here, we need him!!" You yelled as you chased them to the platform and stopped when they dropped out.

"Now there's that guy" Tony said as he finally stood back up. You stormed back over and punched Steve in the arm.

"Is he Asgardian?" Nat asked from her pilots seat.

"A friendly?" Steve asked.

"Is he an accomplice?" You asked.

"Doesn't matter. If he frees Loki or kills him, the Tesseract's lost" Was all Stark replied with as he started walking back to the end of the ship.

"Hey, we at least need a plan tin can" You shout as you followed the suited man.

"I have a plan and don't call me that" You could imagine him rolling his eyes.

"I'm coming with you then" As Stark started to fly to the ground, you jumped after him and grabbed his foot.

"Are you kidding me? Let go!!" Stark yelled down to you as he lost his balance.

"No, I said I was coming" As you spoke, you started to lose your grip and then all together, fell from the sky.

You plummeted to the ground and screamed as much as you could. Looking up, it didn't seem that Stark realised you had slipped. You continued to scream until you felt a pair of strong arms grab you in a bridal style and flew to the ground. It wasn't till you looked up, that you saw the man who took Loki and that you were stood atop a mountain.

"Are you alright?" The man spoke with concern and had had ocean blue eyes.

"Huh, so you do have manners" You plopped out of his grasp and saw Loki in front of you. "Two of you working together or is this some kind of rivalry?" You pulled your lips into a tight line as you heard Loki laugh.

"Ha, that's funny. No, this runs deeper than rivalry darling" He smiled wickedly.

"We're brothers" The man behind said and your eyes widened.

"Sure we grew up together, but I was always a shadow to his greatness" You saw the slightest bit of pain wash over Loki's face before it disappeared into darkness. "I have seen the true power of the Tesseract, and when I wield it..."

"Who showed you this power? Who controls the would be king?" The blonde walked closer to Loki and grabbed his shoulders.

"I am a king!!" Loki yelled and you flinched.

"Not here!" The man yelled back and you walked beside him.

"Loki, where is the Tesseract?" You asked softly as you carefully placed a hand on his cheek. The villain looked at you with sadness and then a smile.

"I don't have it my dear" The blonde beside you went to throw a punch and you stood in the way, taking the hard blow. Before the male took a step forward, you saw Stark fly into him and past you and Loki.

You dropped to the ground and clung to your cheek. The pain caused a ringing in your ears and your cheek felt hot and tingly. You felt arms hold you by the shoulders and then someone lift your chin up. Tears began to prick at bottom of your eyes, threatening to drop. When you finally looked up to see the figure, you were surprised to see Loki and that's when the tears ran down.

"Why are you crying my dear?" He wiped your cheeks softly and smiled.

"Why didn't you run?" You spoke between cries.

"I'm sorry? I don't think I follow"

"Why didn't you run when that guy got flown to god knows where?" You looked at him quizzically.

"Because you're hurt" He furrowed his brows as if it was the most obvious answer and you grinned. "Now let me see" Loki whispered as he took hold of your hand and moved it away from your cheek.

"Is it bad?" You muttered and the man shook his head.

"Just red, but should go down soon" The male stroked the redness of your cheek and you felt the ease of where the pain used to be.

"Thank you, Loki"

"Anytime, darling" You playfully pushed his shoulder.

"Thought I told you not to call me that"

"And I thought you knew, I don't listen to anyone" The male chuckled and locked eyes with you. You both inched a little closer and then heard a loud crash, snapping you to look away from one another.

Loki coughed behind you and you took in a big sigh. Hearing a few yells you turned to see that at the bottom of the cliff, Stark and the blonde were in the middle of a fight. The guy with the hammer, lifted it high and conjured up lightning.

"You have got to be kidding" You gritted and Loki laughed at your reaction. "What you laughing at green goblin?"

"No reason" He shrugged as the guy then shot the lightning towards Tony, frying up his suit. However, he shot right back.

Tony flew at the blonde guy and they continued to fight as they drew further away from you.

"Guess they forgot I'm here" You threw your arms up and slapped your lap.

"I'm sure they'll return" Loki stood up.

"Leaving already?" You stared at him wondering what to do now.

"If I stay, I'll get caught and I've had enough of that for one day" He smiled widely and you too stood up.

"What makes you think I won't stop you?" You folded your arms over your chest and Loki walked up to you. He leaned in and his lips brushed against your ear.

"Because you wouldn't of stopped me if I had kissed you moments ago" His voice was barely a whisper and his breath felt hot against your skin.

You could of sworn that the redness from where you were punched grew even redder. You tried to respond but your voice had hitched and you just stood awkwardly as Loki turned away and fled.

Soon, you heard a sort of explosion and carefully ran down a narrow path that led to the bottom of the cliff. You ran and made it to the guys before they all thought you were dead.

"Miss me" You grinned widely and Tony shook your hand.

"Thought you were dead pipsqueak" You rolled your eyes at the new name.

"At least it's better than Capsicle" You laughed as you looked to Steve.

"Midgardian, we haven't formally met. I'm Thor" The blonde who saved you smiled.

"Nice to meet you, I'm y/n" You smiled back.

"As much as I like meetings like these. Here's a question agent, where's Loki?" Steve asked harshly.

"He got away from me" You lied and then you heard Nat on your headset.

"We've located and restrained Loki, come back and we'll head to Mr Fury" The woman spoke and the line went dead.

Steve held onto Tony's hands as he flew up and you held onto Thor. It didn't take long for your small group to reach the ship and when saw Loki, you gave him a sad smile.

You never said a word until you reached the larger ship that Fury was on. A few guards had come to collect the villain and escorted him through some doors and your group made its way to the bridge. Everyone was listening in to Nick and Loki's conversation through a PA.

Although everyone was listening, your mind was elsewhere. You would be too, if it wasn't for the man who almost kissed you. You felt for your lips and tried to imagine what it would've been like. Soft and sweet or rough and heated. Banner spoke and it snapped you from any thoughts that should be like forbidden fruit to you.

"Really grows on you doesn't he?"

"Loki's gonna drag this out. So, Thor, what's his play?" Steve asked the man that stood deep in thought.

"He has an army called the Chitauri. They're not from Asgard, nor any world known" He sadly looked around the room of your group. "He means to lead them against your people. They will win him the earth, in return, I suspect, the Tesseract" He finished.

"An army, from outer space" Steve looked to the group and then you.

"He's building another portal then" You roll your eyes.

"That's what he needs Erik Selvig for" Banner finished.

"Selvig?" Thor looked at the man quizzically.

"He's an astrophysicist" Banner replied.

"A friend" Thor responded.

"Loki has him under some kind of spell" Natasha mentioned with a sadness upon her face.

"And one of ours" You mentioned.

"I want to know why Loki let us take him. He's not leading an army from here" Steve wondered aloud.

"Then let me go in and find out" You stood in front of Mr Capsicle.

"Y/n, I don't think we should focus on Loki right now" Banner defended.

"Well you guys can focus on other situations, I'll focus on Loki" You stormed out to the hall and heard footsteps behind you.

"You do know he killed 80 people in 2 days right?" Nat warned and you continued walking.

"Y/n, wait!" Steve yelled as he grabbed your arm to turn you around. You shook it off and stared daggers into his gaze.

"What do you want Captain?" You spat out the last word and Steve winced.

"I'm sorry, about before. I never once thought it was just fooling around"

"Then why lie to me? Why hurt me like that?" Every question was finished with a tear staining your cheeks.

"I don't know, maybe I didn't want a repeat of what happened to me last time" Steve looked at the ground and your heart broke. You felt for his cheek and smiled weakly.

"I'm sorry, but you have lied to me one too many times now, it's best we just leave it in the past now"

You turned to walk away again and this time, Steve pulled you back and locked his lips with yours for a brief second. He let you go and without another word left to head back to the bridge.

You found the room that was holding Loki and with a deep breath, you walked in. Seeing Loki had somehow put your mind at ease and made you question what you were doing.

"Hello daring, miss me already?" The mischievous man smirked towards you.

"Always the charmer aren't you?" You smirked back and walked closer to the cage. "You gonna tell us anything about your intentions?" You looked at him hopefully.

"Sorry dear, I can't do that" His smile faded and he continued to stand tall before you.

"Can't, or won't?" You folded your arms over your chest as the god before you thought long and hard.

"Won't I'm afraid" He shrugged.

You pressed some buttons that opened the door and when you walked in, they shut automatically.

"Will you tell me anything that's the truth" You pleaded and the man smiled weakly.

"I like you miss mischief" He smiled as he caressed your cheek and you did the same.

"Then tell me why you let yourself get caught" You smiled slightly in hopes he'll allow the power to force his truth out.

"Sorry darling, that doesn't work on me anymore" The man smirked devilishly as he lightly touched your hand.

He gazed deeply into your eyes as he inched in closer. He then placed another hand upon your hip and pulled you in to meet him in the middle. Your breath hitched from the fast movement and you locked your eyes onto the lines of his lips. You threaded your fingers through his hair and pulled him in to close the remaining gap between you. You pulled away just as quick as you went in.

"I'll continue to play your little game, green goblin" You winked and walked out the prison cell.

"Touché, my dear" The villain laughed as you left to head back to the bridge.

Everyone turned and stared you down when you returned.

"Where've you been agent?" Tony asked and you shrugged in return.

"Thought I could get info from greenie" You answered.

"Anyway, me and Banner are going to do some tracking, you in to have fun?" Stark patted you on the back as the two left the room and you ran after them.

You mainly looked at the sceptor and listened as the two men geeked out about the science of it all. Tony also shocked Banner on the side and you laughed.

"You really have got a lid on it haven't you". Stark seemed impressed and you heard the yelling of Steve behind you.

"Is everything just a joke to you?" His voice boomed in the room.

"Steve, it's okay just calm down" You stepped in front of him.

"Funny things are" Tony put out bluntly and you turned to glare at him.

"Not helping" You spat.

"Threatening the safety of everyone on this ship, isn't funny. No offence doc" Steve's glance was cold.

"Why don't you leave and cool down for a bit?" You tried to push the tall male through the doors, but failed.

"You need to focus on the problem Mr Stark and y/n why don't you leave instead" Steve spoke harshly.

"Because I don't want to" The glared at the man and looked back at Tony.

"First off, leave y/n alone. Second, what, you think I'm not? Why did Fury call us in? Why now? Why not before? What isn't he telling us?" Starks questions made you stop and think what you hadn't thought before until now.

"You have a point"

"I can't do the equation unless I have all the variables"

"You think Fury's hiding something?" Steve questioned.

"He's a spy Captain. 'the' spy, his secrets have secrets. Bugging her too, isn't it" Tony pointed to you and you nodded slightly.

"Not as much as Einstein here" You chuckled and you saw Tony's lips twitch up a little.

"What about you doctor?" Steve asked as he faced Banner, who sighed.

"'A warm light for all mankind' Loki's jab at Fury about the cube" He started.

"Yeah, we heard it" You pointed out.

"I think that was meant for you" Banner turned to Stark. "Even if Barton didn't tell Loki about the tower, it was still all over the news"

"The Stark tower? That big, ugly..." You elbowed him in the arm to shut up and Tony gave him a sort of sad glance. "Building in New York?"

"It's powered by an arc reactor, a self-sustaining energy source" Banner continued.

"So, your saying, it could run itself for like what, a year?" You asked.

"It's just a prototype" Tony shrugged it off. "I'm kind of the only name in clean energy right now"

"Then why didn't S.H.I.E.L.D bring him in on the Tesseract project?" You pointed out the big question.

"And what are they doing in the energy business in the first place?" Banner joined.

"I guess I should look into that once my decryption program finishes breaking into all of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secure files" Tony starts to walk out as he looks at a tablet in his hands.

"I'm sorry, did you say..." You look at Steve.

"Just let him do his thing, maybe he'll find something useful"

"Jarvis has been running it since I hit the bridge. In a few hours, I'll know every dirty secret S.H.I.E.L.D has ever tried to hide"

"If you get caught, you're screwed" You laugh nervously.

"Maybe, blueberry?" He offers you a container of the fruit and you gladly took a few.

"And you're confused as to why they didn't want you around" You glared at Steve again.

"An intelligence organization that fears intelligence? Historically, not awesome" You laugh at Tony's comment and Steve rolls his eyes.

"I think Loki's trying to wind us up. This is a man who means to start a war and if we don't stay focused, he'll succeed"

"Have you questioned him about his motives yet?" You glance at the tall blonde in front of you.

"No, but I'm sure you have" He smirked, but in a dark way as if he knows what happened in the cell.

"Like I said, my power doesn't seem to work on him anymore" You said simply.

"Anyway, we have orders and we should follow them"

"Followings not really my style" Tony answered.

"And you're all about style aren't you?"

"Okayyy, I'm gonna leave you boys to do whatever the hell you're doing and I'm gonna rest up" You patted Tony on the shoulder and left for your room.

The walk to your room was long and you were able to think about the events that took place. Starting with the poems, the red string that connected you to Loki and then the kiss. Although it was short, you still felt the tenderness of his lips, they were soft and kind.

Once in, you sat at the edge of the bed and opened browser on your phone. You finally typed in about red string and found that it appears when soulmates are finally united. Then you realised, if you and Loki shared the same strand of red string, it meant you were...

The excruciating headaches returned and you screamed in pain. Then you heard the familiar voice call to you.

His raven hair, like midnight's cloak,

Frames a face with secrets spoke.

Fair features veiled in cunning disguise,

A master of chaos, with clever eyes.

A hue of green adorns his sly disguise,

A colour that holds secrets, worth the prize.

Like the lush grasses in a hidden grove,

Or the envy that fuels his plans, bold and rove.

The poem was longer than before and more descriptive. The headaches stopped and you heard yelling outside your door. Getting up slowly, you walked and opened it to see the guys and Nat standing there panicked.

"What's wrong?" You asked innocently.

"We heard you screaming, is everything okay agent?" Natasha asked as she checked your body like Steve had before.

"I'm fine, I just saw a spider. It's gone now though" It was the most logical answer you could come up with on the spot.

Everyone looked at you suspiciously, but all left anyway. You thought more on the new poem and you knew what the unspoken truth was. Loki was your soulmate and you are linked for eternity.

Intertwined Pt 1: Destiny's a b**ch

Pairing: Loki x Female Reader

Summary: You and Loki are bound together as soulmates through red string. You are also given poems to help you figure it out along the way.

Warning: Heavy (maybe) Smut (No idea what other warnings but poorly written smut so I apologise)

Word count: 4.1k

A/N: This is set in the Avengers Assemble Film and maybe onwards, but we'll see how this story does first. I appreciate any feedback to help me improve this story.

You were running through a field with a handsome man. At least, you thought he was handsome. The only problem was you couldn't actually see what he looked like. You didn't care though and continued to laugh and run. The breeze was cool, but the sun was still hot on your face and the sounds were as clear as day. From the sounds of trees dancing in the wind, to birds chirping to each other.

When you came to a stop by a babbling brooke, you looked at your hands and saw the red string of fate that linked you to each other by your pinky's. You looked up at the mysterious figure and cupped his unseeable cheek, before kissing him softly.

You awoke to the sound of your alarm and felt the warmth of someone holding you close. You long forgot the dream you were having and were brought back to reality of having a familiar person beside you. Your bare skin rubbed against each other and it took you back to the night before. Where there was raw and lusty emotions that ran rampant around each other. The room smelled of sweat and sex and you finished it off with cuddling close for comfort. Clothes could be seen all over your room and you wished you could go back to that night even just once. You giggled sleepily as the man held you tighter when you attempted to leave him.

"Five more minutes sweetheart" Steve Rogers grumbled before kissing you lightly on the forehead.

"I would love to stay in this bed with you forever if I could, but we have to get up" You wriggled out of bed and this time, Steve reluctantly let go and pulled the covers as if to make up for your absence.

Steve Rogers has been both your romantic partner and working partner after being introduced to each other 6 months before. You took on a few jobs together in the past and shortly after began feeling new and exciting things towards each other.

Shaking your hips teasingly, you grabbed a nearby dressing gown and covered up to leave the room. You could hear Steve groan like a child just had their toy taken away and you couldn’t help but chuckle to yourself.

While you were in the kitchen brewing some coffee, Steve strolled in with a tight gray shirt that clung nicely to his muscles and chest. Every flex and twitch was visible to the naked eye in the shirt and you wouldn't complain. Just seeing him the shirt made your toes curl and you tried to make it seem like you hadn’t noticed. You felt large arms wrap softly around your waist and felt his breath hotly on your neck causing a shiver down your spine. His fingers lightly trailed up and down your hips and you could feel your heart pump out of your chest. All before feeling the tenderness of the male's lips press softly on the collarbone. You tilted your neck to the side so Steve could have better access.

“So, what’s the plan for today?” You asked between pants as you poured the coffee into two of your cups.

“We could, go to the gym?” Steve mumbled the suggestion into your neck.

“Okay, sounds good” You sighed with a smiled as you turned and handed your partner his cup. The warm touch of his lips still lingered on your collarbone and was left wanting more.

As Steve leaned with his back against the counter and sipping his coffee. You stood across from him and smirked mischievously.

"Why're you looking at me like that" He asked as he set his cup down.

"No reason, just thinking you look awfully sexy in your shirt" You bit your lip a little as you saw a glint of arousal in the males eyes.

"Is that so?" He asked, in a low a deep voice as he stalked his way across to.

He then placed his hands on both your hips and squeezed them as he pulled them closer to his body. You placed your hands on his rock hard chest to keep your balance and brushed your palms up to his broad shoulders. You felt his body twitch beneath your touch and lifted your eyes to meet his.

With his hands, he picked you up from under your thighs and placed you on the counter behind you. He then proceeded to use his knee to nudge your legs further apart. Lips soon crashed into yours and whatever painfully slow game Steve was playing, was long overdue.

His hands began to roam around every part of your body and his tongue danced and explored within your mouth. Moans were slipping out and groans would reply. The dressing gown and gray shirt had long been discarded along the way.

You felt an instant shock of pleasure when you felt Steve start to pinch one of your nipples. He then started to lower his head to the other and gently tugged it with his teeth. You recline your head back and threaded your fingers through his soft, blonde hair. He switched to the other nipple and continued to suck and tug.

Steve eagerly placed kisses all the way down your stomach and then your inner thighs. When he came to your entrance, he looked up at you with lust in his eyes and quickly stuck his tongue between your folds; making you gasp. You arched your back and as he continued to flick his tongue in and out, you bucked your hips to try and get him deeper.

The smells of sex and sweat wafted through the kitchen space and the only sounds you could hear were Steve sucking and eating your pussy out and the loud moans that escaped you.

He picked up the pace and before you were able to ride out an orgasm, he got to his feet and slammed his length into you. You clawed at his back and shoulders as he continued to thrust into you ruthlessly. You were able to accommodate his size now, so he didn't have to go in slowly anymore. You did clarify that if you couldn't take it then he would have to go in slow.

After a few more thrusts, you both came and your bodies shook while riding out the orgasms. You rested your forehead against the male and you slowly recovered from your high. Steve kissed your crown and stroked the back of your head soothingly.

"I don't think I could do gym today" You chuckled as you looked up at the blonde sweetly.

"That's understandable" Steve smirked devilishly. "We could just get coffee today and watch a movie" You merely nodded in response.

Once you cleaned up and changed, you both left the apartment hand in hand and made your ways down the streets of Washington to your favourite coffee shop.You and Steve were waiting in line to order, when your phone rang so went outside to pick it up.

A click sounded and then you heard an old colleagues voice.

"Hello" Coulson called out.

“Hello?” You answered as chirpy as you could without sounding like you were dying.

"Y/n? Are you there?" Coulson sounded concerned and you couldn't help but have a sinking feeling that something really bad happened.

"Y-yeah, I'm here, what's going on?"

"Barton's been compromised"

"You're kidding right" You looked inside and Steve was now at the front ordering your drinks.

"I wish I was, look we'll explain everything soon but right now I can't disclose anymore information".

"Okay, is he at least okay?"

"We're not sure yet"

"And do we need Steve for this as well?"

"Been trying to contact him but he hasn't answered yet".

"No worries, he's with me anyway" There was an awkward silence that implied that the man on the other end didn't want to know anymore. Almost as if he could figure why you were together. Your relationship hadn’t been made public to S.H.I.E.L.D yet, but they figured that something was going on.

"Right, well, see you soon" And the line went dead. Sighing, you finally returned inside and walked to a booth that Steve was sat at with a mix of emotions flowing around your mind.

“Hey, you guys look terrible, trouble sleeping?” You heard the booming voice come from beside you and when you turned to the source, you saw Nick Fury in the flesh. The man was tall and wore all black clothing with the longest trench coat you had ever seen and an eye patch lay on the left eye.

“How d- you?” You gestured to the phone and then at Nick. How the hell did he find you so fast when you hadn’t even told them your location.

“I have my ways agent l/n” The man nodded and took a seat next to you.

“Are you here with a mission sir?” Steve questioned.

“I am”

“So, why’d you need the both of us. Like surely Barton’s alright”

“Afraid not” The man handed the two of you a folder and when you opened it, there was information about a glowing blue cube called the Tesseract.

“HYDRA’S secret weapon” Steve grumbled as he flipped through the pages.

“Howard stark fished that out of the ocean when he was looking for you, Steve” You looked towards the man you cared deeply for. He had told everything that happened before, during and after the war. He had been through so much hurt and pain and you admired him for his strength to push through. You took hold of his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

“The Tesseract could be the key to unlimited, sustainable energ. That’s something the world sorely needs”

“So who has it?”

“His names Loki, he’s not from around here either. If you’re in, there’s a lot we have to catch you up to speed with” Steve started to make his way out the shop without another word and you looked at Fury with an apologetic look.

“Can we give it some thought please” The man nodded and you followed Steve.

“There’s two debriefing packets back at your apartment Y/n” That was the last thing you heard him say.

“Should’ve left it in the ocean” You heard Steve mumble as you tried to keep up with the man. You were able to catch up to him and grabbed his wrist to stop him in his tracks.

“Hey, are we gonna do this or what?” You quickly stepped in front of the man that towered over you.

“I don’t know” He tried to step around, but you followed.

“Well, I’m doing it, but not without you” Steve stared at you with an emotion you haven’t seen him look at you with. His eyes held no emotion and looked duller than the brightness they usually showed.

“We don’t always have to go on missions together you know”

“I know, but we work well together”

“You sure it’s not just me carrying your weight” Steve’s voice spoke with a harshness that felt as though you were being stabbed in the stomach and it was like he became a whole different person.

“Fine, I will go on my own” You turned quick on your heel so as to not let the man before you, see the tears fighting to fall down your cheek. This was the first time that Steve had ever talked to you like this. He was always so sweet and soft spoken with you, until now.

You didn’t realise how upset you were until you made it back to the apartment in record time and you began to vigorously wipe away any tears that have strayed down your cheek. It wasn’t a surprise that Steve didn’t run after you when you looked back at the path you travelled by. You knew that he was probably feeling more emotions than he let on and he wasn’t the type to talk about his feelings much.

You stepped into the elevator and the ride up to your floor felt agonizing and as if it went on forever. You pondered on the thought of whether or not your relationship could still be salvaged. You felt like a burden and just in the way. You wondered if he was right.

Finally making it to your apartment, you packed up the things that you needed and grabbed the debriefing packet. You quickly skimmed through all the information that S.H.I.E.L.D had on Loki and the Tesseract and how you were going to go about defeating him. It also had information on all the people you were supposed to be working with to save the world. In your opinion, these people looked cooler with their quirks and powers than you.

As you had opened the door to leave, you saw Steve standing in front of you with sweat dripping down his face and panting heavily as he stared at you with so much sadness and guilt that it pained you.

“I’m sorry, for what I said earlier. It was a douche bag move and I wasn’t thinking” He stepped forward and your bodies were mere inches apart. The tension between you felt so thick, you could cut it with a knife.

“It’s okay” You looked at him with forgiveness in your eyes and smiled slightly. The male that stood before you, placed his hands gently on either side of your arms. No words were needed to be exchanged to know that you both acted childish in a sense.

You slowly moved your hand to caress his cheek and when you smiled a little more, so did he as he closed the last of the gap that was left between you. Your lips fitted together perfectly and rolled together in a synchronized rhythm.

Deepening the kiss, Steve trailed his hand up to the nape of your neck tilted your head up to gain better access. The sensation of the males touch sent waves of pleasure throughout your body, making you smile widely.

Even though, you wanted to continue kissing your boyfriend, you heard the ding of the elevator nearby and unwillingly pulled away from the mans lips. Your cheeks were flushed with bright pink and your hair became unruly from your make out session.

Once the person who had come out the elevator, passed by, you both snickered.

“Have you changed your mind about the mission?” You looked at Steve expectantly.

“Yeah, I have” He smiled and entered the apartment to collect his things with such speed. You watched him contently and found yourself wanting to blurt out the three words that fought to leave your mouth with confidence.

“Steve…” The male looked up and stared at you, causing the new found confidence to wither away and no longer wished to bloom. “Never mind” You smiled weakly and continued to wait for him outside.

You both had to fly separately to the secret location where you heard they had assembled other super heroes. The location was a boat in the middle of the ocean and if you weren’t there to help save the world, you would think it was awesome. It didn’t stop you from still thinking it, but you never dared to say it out loud.

Once you landed, you were met with a young woman with short ginger hair called agent Romanoff. Quite beautiful and if you were honest, a little jealous. You paid no attention as the two talked about Steve’s past as you walked along the runway. You already heard it enough times and understood how he must’ve felt. In the distance, you saw a man that walked around a plane aimlessly and Steve called over to him, answering to the name Mr Banner.

“They told me you’d be coming” The man spoke politely as he shook both your hands.

“Pleasure to meet you” You spoke and returned with a smile.

“Word is, you can find the cube” Steve continued.

“Is that the only word on me?” You couldn't help but notice an unease in Banner and you already knew of his background of turning into a big green monster.

“Only word I care about” Steve replied with a soft smile and you saw the man across you, relax his shoulders.

As the men continued to talk, you felt a rumble below you. You walked over to the edge and what looked like a propeller began to emerge from under the water that was swirling around like a whirlpool. Excitement welled up inside and you grinned widely at Steve. The male turned to you and pulled you for an embrace.

“We got this” You could feel the vibrations of his voice as you rested your head against his chest and simply nodded.

Before you knew it, the ship was being lifted into the air and you lost your balance to a brief stumble.

Finally following agent Romanoff and walking inside, you were surrounded by people walking around in uniforms and looking over computer screens. It looked even cooler on the inside and you made a reminder to do a little dance when you were alone.

Deciding to walk around a bit, you left the room as Banner started talking with Nick and you were able to do a happy dance. Not because of the circumstances, but because you had never done anything like this in your life and it got you buzzing with excitement. Sure, you had been on missions, but never quite this thrilling. Not long after you started walking, you felt a shooting pain in your head. It felt as though someone was using a load of strength and squeezing the sides inwards. You not long after started to hear an echoing voice and was only just able to make out the words.

Bound by fates design, a red string ties,

Connecting souls amidst unpredictable skies,

No mortal or god can escape its tight hold,

Tales of destiny intertwined, bold and untold.

The voice then stopped and so did the headache. You soon gained your composure and felt puzzled by what you just heard. What did that even mean? Steve came running down the hall, worry filling his face.

“Hey, are you okay?” He clung to your shoulders and inspected your body to make sure you weren’t injured.

“I’m alright, just worn out is all” You sighed softly and looked up at the male. You didn't want to lie to him, but you thought he wouldn't believe the truth.

“Let me take you to your room so you can rest” Steve started to guide you gently to a nearby room with a bed and helped to make you as comfortable as possible.

The gesture made your heart do somersaults and your stomach felt light and giddy. Before the male turned to leave you in peace, you took hold of his hand. Steve looked down at you with surprise, but waited patiently for you to speak.

“I love you Steve Rogers, I hope you know that” Steve’s lips twitched upwards ever so slightly as he nodded and left without a word.

That left you with a pang of anxiety. Did he not love you too? Was he just not ready to say it yet? Millions of questions swarmed your mind and you no longer felt the exhaustion you didn’t realise you had. You just lay on the bed and stared mindlessly at the ceiling. Thoughts of the supposed poem soon won over the negative thoughts of Steve and you repeated the words over and over, to gain a better understanding of its meaning.

It felt like hours had rolled by and you were no nearer to the answer than when you first heard the poem. You sighed in defeat and decided to leave your room.

Sluggishly, you walked back to the bridge and saw Coulson talking with Steve.

“Hey, did I miss anything?” The two men turned to you and Coulson just shook his head. Steve just turned back without a word.

In the corner of your eye, you caught sight of a photo of the villain you were supposed to stop on a computer. He had black hair and what looked like the coldest of eyes.

“We got a hit, 67% match” The guy in front of the computer that showed a picture of Loki yelled. “Wait, cross match. 79%” Coulson walked over.

“Location?”

“Stuttgart Germany, 28 Konigstrasse, he’s not exactly hiding either” The man replied as he zoomed in on the exact location.

“Lovelyyy, guess we could just drop by and tell him Guten Tag” You rolled your eyes and saw that Steve and Coulson looked at you confused. “It’s German for good day” You folded your arms over your chest and walked in Coulson’s direction.

The man had pulled up a picture of a glamorous building and a coloured picture of Loki. The picture still wasn’t great, but it was easier to remember what he looked like at least.

“Captain, Agent” You and Steve turned to Nick. “You guys are up” With a nod, you went to ready yourselves.

“Hey, Steve” Steve hummed in response as he put on his uniform. “About earlier…”

“What about it?” Steve asked before you could even finish what you wanted to say. He was clearly playing dumb by the fact that he hasn’t even looked you in the eye since you went to get your stuff together.

“You know exactly what, when I said I love you” Rage was bubbling inside you at this point and you were just wanting him to listen to you.

“Look, you don’t know what you’re talking about” Steve finally turned and made eye contact.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” You replied through gritted teeth and clenched your fist and glared at the man that towered over you.

“It means that this…” He pointed between the two of you. “Was just something to pass the time” Tears pricked the back of your eyes as you tried to process what Steve just said.

“You don’t mean that” You cried as you slowly backed away.

“I mean it, I thought we were just fooling around” Every word he spoke, was like another stab to the heart.

“I DIDN’T!” You screamed through sobs and ran back to your room until you made it to Germany.

You were nearly at the destination, when you heard screams from civilians as some of them ran past you. Still not talking or acknowledging Steve, you ran on ahead. It’s Showtime.

Hiding behind a nearby pillar, you heard the sound of a gruff and loud voice.

“In the end, you will always kneel” You carefully peeked forward and saw Loki in the flesh. The man stood tall with a sort of cheshire cat grin and held a scepter with a blue orb in the top. He wore clothes that looked as though they were made from the finest materials; fit for a king. He wore a helmet that had horns that curled, almost like a rams and had black hair that looks greasy in person. As you continued to look on, you saw an elderly man stand up.

“Not to men like you” Loki chuckled under his breath.

“There are no men like me”

“There are always men like you” Loki raised his scepter at the elderly man's response.

“Look to your elder people. Let him be an example” Before you could react, Loki had fired a blue shot towards the man. Luckily, Steve reflected it back with his shield and the villain fell down.

“Dammit Cap, I was handling it” You stormed from your hiding place and next to the male in his red, white and blue suit.

“Really, cause pretty sure someone would’ve died cause of you” You didn’t want to admit that he was right, but didn’t mean you had to like it.

“Fine, but I’m handling this guy now” Loki had finally stood his ground.

“Well, well, what do we have here?” Instantly, you decided to use part of your power.

You focused in on Loki himself and listened in on his thoughts.

Who do these Midgards think they are? Oh, hello darling. The corners of Loki’s lips twitched upwards and he was smirking at you.

Before you could use anymore of your power, you saw something glowing bright red from your hand. Looking down, red string was tied to your pinky and you followed the trail with your line of sight. It lead you to look towards Loki, who had and saw the same thing you did. Finally, you made eye contact with the villainous man and both of you clenched the sides of your head. It was the same headache and echoing voice as before. Except the poem had changed.

Destiny intertwines our lives with care,

Leading us towards love that’s rare.

Through life’s twists and turns we roam,

Until we find our soulmate, finally at home.

Just like before, the headache stopped and so did the voice. You didn’t know why you're seeing and hearing voices and red string. Or why Loki must seem to be experiencing the same thing. But you knew one thing…Destiny’s a bitch.
