It was in a rare moment of vulnerability that Loki pleaded you to not leave. “Never leave me, please, never leave.” His eyes were so desperate and you almost wanted to cry when you saw him beg.
Loki was never one to beg or ask for something; he was never one to show his emotions to plainly… but with you, he was different. He trusted you. He could confide in you his worst fears and his plans. You just never realised how badly he needed you.
As though reading your thoughts, he shifted to turn to you fully, “You have no idea how much I need you.” His words were soft but, oh, so honest.
Dumbly, you nodded, feeling a lump in your throat. You grabbed him by the shoulders and enveloped his coldness in your warmth. He repeated the phrase again, muffled by your shoulder.
“I won’t,” you told him strongly, “I will never leave you.”
