Bitten by a blade (Loki x reader)

A/n: have I made you cry yet?

-

"Can't this fucking thing go any faster?" You said, kicking the wall of the jet Tony let you use.
"Y/n, kicking it isn't going to do anything. Come here." Loki spoke softly.
You walked over to him and sat on his lap, cuddling into his chest.
"I can't lose her."
"I know." He said rubbing circles on your palm.

This was going to be a lot tougher for Loki than you would've imagined. He too kept in contact with Mim, made a real friendship with her. On top of that he had to see you breaking down. Albeit, he knew it was tougher for you, but he couldn't deny the fact that he was hurting too. You had managed to fall asleep on Loki once the tears slowed down.

He wrapped his arm around yours, pulling you on closer before going to sleep himself.

Before you knew it, you were landing. It was a twenty minute drive to the hospital from where you landed. Loki insisted on carrying your half asleep body to the car. When you were in the car, you tried to wake yourself up by mass texting Finn to see if there was any new information. Nothing too interesting yet. Doctor just came in to check vitals. At least she's not unconscious, yet anyway.

You chewed on the inside of your lip and picked at your thumb as the car pulled into the hospital car park. You thanked Happy and dragged your suitcase out of the boot. You practically ran to the front desk and gave Mims information before they gave you the room number.

You cursed the stupid lift for taking so long. Finally, the doors opened, giving you time to go and find Mim's room. You stopped two feet short of her room. You could see through the window, her on that bed, weak, frail. Not like your Mim at all. At least she was smiling.

She spotted you outside and slowly waved at you to come in. You took a deep breath and opened the door.
"Hey Mim. Where's everyone else?"
"Going to get me some food. The food here is shit."
"Okay." You smiled, enjoying her just being herself.

"Well, I'm not dead yet, come give me a hug peanut." She said.
You went over and sat next to her, resting your head on her shoulder.
"I see you and lover boy finally happened." She whispered, pointing to Loki who was neatly arranging the bags at the other end of the room.
"Yeah, we did."
"Are you happy?"
"Normally I would say yes, but I can't be when you're here."

"Your life can't stop just because mine is. Yes you should be sad because I'm your favourite but not guilty, never be guilty. Alright Hun?" She said, patting your head.
"Okay."
"How do you feel?" Loki asked once he stopped being a perfectionist.
"Like I have cancer." Mim responded, blunt as ever.
"Fair enough." He smiled.

Mim waved him over so he sat on her other side.
"I know I said I was going to walk you down the aisle, and I still am. So get married fast."

Loki's POV
Once y/n fell asleep, I knew this was my only chance.
"Mim?" I whispered.
"Yes hon?"
"Do you think that she will like this?" I said reaching into my pocket and pulling out a ring. It was one that my mother gave me, just before we left Asgard. It had a gold band and and emerald sitting it the centre.

"Like? Boy she will love it. Trust me, she has created whole Pinterest boards for rings just like that. Where on earth did you find it?"
"Not on earth actually. My mother gave it to me just before we came here."
"Wow, so it's literally out of this world?"
"Yeah, I guess. We haven't said those three words yet but I know I want to spend eternity with your daughter, if you'll let me."

The biggest smile I've ever seen on a person graced her face as she nodded. I've never felt more at home than I have with y/n.
"You have to ask Kieth and Jo too though, you know."
"I know, they are next on my list." I smiled and kissed her cheek.
"Thank you so much." I said.

"Under my bed at the house, there is a little yellow box that says that no one is allowed to touch on the side. At my funeral-"
"Mim-"
"Shut up, let me finish. At my funeral, get that box and hide it. And put this note in it. Only give it to her when the time is right, okay?" She said, pulling a yellow post it note out of her bra.
I took it and said yes, I folded it and put it in the same box as the ring before putting it back in my pocket.

"She's yours now, okay? Take care of her for me."
"I will. I'll protect her with my whole life."
"Good, but also, save a little for yourself. I quite like you but I want it to be a long time before we meet up there, alright? Valhalla, heaven, good place or whatever."
"Okay." I laughed.

Your POV
You woke up slowly, not wanting to disturb the peace of being with your favourite people ever. But the familiar smell of pancakes and hot chocolate was all too familiar.
"Y/n, get up. We bring food." Finn shouted, hitting you on the head with his jacket.

"Wow you're so nice. I suppose you won't mind me telling mum about your maths teacher."
"What about his maths teacher." Your mum said, looking up at Finn from the food she getting out.
"Nothing."
"Finn has the hots for Mr Arthur." You said, sticking your tongue out at a sulking Finn.

"We'll talk about this later." Your mum scolded.
"I'm going to make you're life a living hell."
"I'd like to see you try."

Your mum passed you a paper plate with pancakes on for you and Loki to share. Loki tried to be patient but you knew he loved pancakes more than you did so you gave him the last one.
"Ah, Ms Nolan. I see you're quite popular." The doctor said as he walked into the room.
"I know, I'm obviously the favourite."
"Can I speak to, is miss y/n y/l/n here?"

"I'm here." You said sticking your hand up slightly.
"Right this way." He said. You got up and followed him.
He just took you to another room that had scans on it that you knew nothing about.
"I see Ms Nolan put you down as her emergency contact. This is why it is you I'm sharing the news with. Ms Nolan already knows but she told me that she wanted me to tell you. Mim doesn't have very long. The cancer is spreading to her heart. I'd say she has a day or two at most before its fatal. I'm very sorry but there's nothing more we can do."

"I understand." You said, biting the inside of your cheek to keep the tears at bay.
"I know this will be very hard for you. These scans here are our most recent and its clear that she will pass soon."
"Thank you for what you've done for her and us."
"It has been my pleasure, Ms Nolan has definitely been my favourite patient so far. Just don't tell the others that."
