Loki as a baker? 😂

scrumptious-delusion:

_{this is a fantastic concept, i was tempted to write a proper fic}

• When you thought of a bakery, you envisioned a cute, pastel coloured building that oozed cheer.
• Loki’s Sinister Treats was a black building and the only colour was the emerald green paint that spelt the bakery’s name.
• Your best friend had recommended the place to you, stating that every baked good inside was to die for. 
• Glancing at the bakery you couldn’t help but wonder if she meant that literally. 
• However a pleasant surprise awaited you behind the front door. 
• Inside, everything was brightly lit and a mix of white, green, and gold. Classical music played through the speakers and the aroma of numerous treats had your stomach growling. 
• Never judge a book by its cover, you had mused to yourself, a phrase you kept in mind when you were served by the owner himself, the name Loki sown in gold thread on his green apron. 
• The man was tall and while muscled, had a slimness to him. His black hair was tied in a bun at the nape of his neck, a few loose strands tucked behind his ears. He wore black pants and a black, long sleeved shirt, the sleeves pushed up and covered in flour. A frown of sorts sat on his face during your entire interaction. 
• But, the food you brought had been to die for. 
• You became a regular quickly, stopping in every afternoon on your way home from work.
• You discovered through watching Loki serve others, that he only seemed to have the one facial expression, making you wonder how a man who looked so… sour, made such sweet things.
• However, one afternoon would change your perception on Loki.
• Your day had been shit, and it was obvious. Looking like a tired mess, your eyes had a redness around them that suggested tears would soon be falling. 
• Standing at the counter, you had ordered one of your favourite treats in a monotone voice, dreaming of a hot shower, crap tv shows and bed. 
• You paid no mention to the bigger than usual bag you were gifted, just paid and left. 
• Arriving home, and after showering, you went to pull out your treat and was stunned. 
• Though you had ordered one thing, six sat in the bag, all different – a mixture of your favourites – accompanied by a note.
• Hopefully this helps cheer you up, we should leave the frowning to me.
• A giggle had slipped past your lips, and for the first time that day, you felt happy. 
• The next afternoon you waltzed up to the counter with a beaming smile.
• For the first time, Loki’s lips moved from their straight line to form a small smile. 
• ‘Feeling better love?’ the nickname made your stomach twist.
• ‘Thanks to you and your amazing baking skills I am.’
• Loki huffed a laugh, but you swear a touch of red showed in his cheeks.
• ‘I never did catch your name.’ his smile changed into a smirk – one that screamed mischief.
• Something told you your life was about to get a whole lot more interesting.
