The Implicit Demand for Proof (6)

Pairing: Detective David Loki x Reader

summary: You, a forensic psychologist for the FBI, get called in to assist local law enforcement with a high priority child abduction case, what happens when you catch feelings for detective Loki?

*** Important a/n- POV change for the next two chapters cause it’s important to know what both Loki and y/n are thinking! *wink wink* These next two chapters were my faves to write I hope you like them! 

- Y/n and Loki were heading to the vigil now, after a quick stop for coffee per y/n’s request earlier.

Y/n was typing away on her portable tablet with attachable keyboard while Loki was focused on driving.

Y/n reached down blindly to get her drink, accidentally bumping hands with David who was also reaching for his coffee.

“Sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was reaching.” She said, huffing out a nervous laugh.

“S’okay.” Loki said, secretly wishing the contact lasted longer.

Y/n just knew David would get a plain black coffee, it’s so his type. She definitely was profiling him at this point, desperate to find out who exactly was the man, the myth, the legend, David Loki.

“So, you get a profile or anything from those old kidnapping cases?” David asked, attempting to ease the awkward tension.

“No, there’s not enough information to form the specific profile we need, so I’m having my people back home check it out on a regional level to see if there’s any overlap.”

“Think they’ll find something?”

“If there’s anything to find, they’ll find it. They’re the best.”

Loki hummed in response.

“So you think the suspect will be here tonight?” He inquired.

“I can’t say for sure, but it’s probable. These types of subjects usually like to immerse themselves in the aftermath of the crime, or be as close to it as possible. Sick fuckers get off on how others react to the things they’ve done.”

Loki wouldn’t admit it, but he had grown quite fond on her psych babble- as she called it.

“Sorry. I probably answer every question with more information than anyone ever needs.”

“No, It’s okay. It’s interesting, really.”

Loki assured her.

“Glad you think so.” She replied, a shy smile crossing her features.

.

Loki parked the car and he and y/n got out, Loki going to sit on the hood. Y/n followed and sat as close to Loki as humanly possible without actually touching him. Loki eyeing her suspiciously as she did so.

She’s probably just cold. He thought to himself.

As time passed, Loki and y/n just sat watching the crowd. There were lots of people at the vigil, they brought candles, flowers, stuffed animals, pictures, and whatnot.

Y/n thought about bringing a candle or something, but if she did that for every missing child case she was assigned...well, she’d have bought a lot of candles.

David glanced over at y/n who still had her eyes on the crowd.

The light from all the candles flickered across her features, making her warm (e/c) eyes shine.

“It’s rude to stare, you know.” She teased, grinning wide.

That grin, that smile, made familiar warmth flood Loki’s chest.

“Sorry.” He said while fiddling with his hat.

y/n pretended not to notice the slight blush that spread across his cheeks.

She playfully elbowed him, “relax, detective. I’m just giving you a hard time,” she said, a callback to their earlier conversation they had when leaving the Jones’ residence.

Y/n turned her attention back to the crowd, While Loki slipped his beanie on his head. 

Y/n for the first time, noticed Loki in a different light, a more human and sympathetic side showed as he emphasized with the community. Y/n wasn’t sure that side of Loki existed, it excited her to see it.

He rubbed his hands together, trying to create some warmth.

Y/n wordlessly offered him one of her cheap dollar store hand warmers- the HotHands kind that came in a plastic bag.

He refused, of course, not wanting her to be cold.

She nudged him again, wanting him to take it.

Loki refused. again.

She nudged him a third time, Loki was about to just take the damn thing, but he saw her attention was focused on someone in the crowd.

“In the front with the teddy bear. male, tall, tan coat.” She said, her voice low, almost a whisper.

“Got him”

They both got closer to the man, watching him.

The man noticed y/n and Loki, suddenly growing nervous, looking like he had been caught. He started to slowly turn and walk away. 

They followed him; Loki going straight through the crowd and y/n going around.

They followed him, desperately trying not to lose him in the crowd, but it was hard, everyone was in hats and jackets that looked relatively the same.

Y/n drifted next to Loki as he came out of the crowd of people, still both searching for the guy

Before y/n could ask where he went, a motion detection light went off up at a nearby house, illuminating the man.

Loki wordlessly took off after the man, y/n not far behind him.

“Fuck.” She huffed as she ran after the two of them. 

Upon coming to a stop, Loki pulled out his gun and y/n did the same. He hoped y/n was a good shot.

Taking a few cautious steps forward, Loki motioned to the shed in the next yard over, she nodded understandingly.

He jumped the fence first, then y/n.

They quietly crept towards the shed, the doors were open indicating the suspect was inside.

Loki signaled for y/n to go around back, incase there was a back door he tried to escape from. He had his gun trained on the shed, suddenly a stick snapped, he immediately pointed his gun in the direction of the sound. 

He hoped it was just y/n back there.

Before Loki knew what the fuck was happening, someone jumped on top of him. “Hey! What the fuck?! Get off-”

“Stop! FBI!” Y/n ordered, coming around the corner, gun trained on the suspect. The guy immediately took off sprinting.

“Motherfucker!” Y/n said, through clenched teeth.

“You good, Loki?” She asked, grabbing his arm in an attempt to get him off the ground.

“I’m good just get him!!”

They both took off sprinting after him.

Damn it, that motherfucker was fast.

Y/n and Loki jumped fence after fence, ran through neighborhoods and even people’s back yards.

After what seemed to be like an eternity of sprinting in y/n’s mind, the two came to a busy highway; the end of their chase. 

Suspect was nowhere to be found.

“Fuck. Fuck!” Loki shouted, between labored breaths.

Y/n was hunched over, hands on her knees, trying to catch her breath, the frigid air making it hard to breathe.

She cursed herself internally.

He fucking got away.
