Friendship is Formed on Food (Loki X Reader)

Nobody had gotten a good night sleep last night, this had been mainly due to the delivery of Loki Laufeyson to Stark Towers. He’d arrived late last night and everyone in the tower had to take a turn guarding him. Steve’s turn had started at midnight, Tony had taken over at two, then Nat at four and now it was six o’clock and it was your turn.

You crawled out of your bed, wrapped your duvet around your shoulders and climbed up the stairs to the room where Loki was being held.

Nat was sitting outside the door polishing her gun when you arrived,

“Good luck,” She hissed getting up and walking off, “I’m going to bed.”

Your stomach rumbled as you watched Nat go so as soon as she was out of sight you opened the door to Loki’s room.

The god of mischief was curled up on a bed against the far wall,

“Ugmph,” He mumbled as the light from the open door hit him,

“Get up,” You said, causing him to turn his head and look at you. His piecing green eyes locked on to you but you saw no malice there, if anything he looked tried,

“What?” He mumbled eventually,

“Get up,” you repeated,

“Why?” Loki asked as he sat up, his dark hair sticking up at weird angles, “I was under the impression that I was going to have to spend at least the next week in this room,”

“Don’t get too excited,” you sighed, “We’re just going to the kitchen.”



You and Loki walked down to the kitchen where he sat down at the table and you headed over to the coffee machine,

“Why are you wearing your bed?” Loki asked after a minute,

“Because I didn’t particularly want to get out of my bed,”

“So you thought you’d wear it?”

“Yes,” you replied as the coffee machine finished. You picked up the cup and passed it to Loki who just frowned at it. Then you.

“Drink it,” You said as you walked back over to the machine to make one for yourself,

“What is it?”

“Oreo hot chocolate,” You answered but Loki was still looking suspicious, “It’s nice, I promise you,” Loki sniffed the liquid in the mug, “It’s not poisoned.”

Cautiously Loki took a sip of the hot chocolate,

“Well?”

“Ok, it is quite nice,” Loki sighed before taking another sip. You smiled as you picked up your own mug and blew on it,

“Told you so,” you said, sitting down opposite him, “See ‘Midgard’ isn’t that bad!”

“Fine, it has a quite nice drink that tastes like chocolate,”

“Actually because it’s Oreo hot chocolate it should taste like Oreos which are chocolate biscuits,” Loki glared at you,

“Same difference,” he muttered. You smirked.

“So…” Loki said once he’d finished his drink, “Are there any other tasty things that you could use to prove that Midgard isn’t that bad?” You rolled your eyes,

“You don’t get through me that easily,” you said however at that moment your tummy rumbled again,

“Maybe not but you want food as much as I do,” Loki smirked and you sighed,

“Yes alright then, this is Tony Starks kitchen, kept in stock by Pepper Potts, so it contains pretty much every nice food there is,” you got up and opened the freezer. “Here,” you said, holding out a tub of Ben and Jerry’s Blondie Brownie ice-cream.

Loki slowly got up and took the cartoon off of you,

“There are spoons in the draw opposite you,” you told Loki, “Get out two.”

Loki did as he was told before walking over to the table and taking off the lid. He dipped the spoon in and started to eat as you pulled a pizza out of the freezer,

“JARVIS put the oven on,” you ordered,

“Done Miss (L/n),” The computers voice came.

You popped the pizza into the oven before joining Loki at the table,

“Do you like it?” you asked, picking up a spoon,

“Umm,” Loki replied through a mouth full of food,

“Good, next is these,” you said placing a bag of jam doughnuts on the table.



The two of you spent the next hour happily trying everything in Tony’s kitchen. You ate pizza, chicken nuggets, chocolate muffins, apple pie, smoky bacon crisps, Pringles and éclairs.

“(Y/n)?” Came a voice from the hall,

“Ummm?” You replied picking up another pringle. Clint walked into the room and frowned at you,

“It’s eight, you’re off duty,” he groaned, eyeing Loki suspiciously.

You too looked at Loki, he was sitting at the table watching you closely. He didn’t look like the master villain he was, especially with chocolate smeared around him mouth,

“It’s Ok,” you said eventually, “Go back to bed, I’m good at the moment.” Loki smiled at you and you smiled back. Clint just rolled his eyes but he didn’t object, after all he got another couple of hours in bed.
