@godlyfantasy12. RIGHT NOWWW!!! (I forgot that I finished it, lol. XDXDXDXD Thanks for the reminder! XDXDXD) @ava-blue. @gracie-j. @queen_of_alvastia. @elishavet-pidyon. @koshka. @keilah-h.

Chapter 30

Nick let out a deep breath.

Tony’s heart was beating, and it was steady.

But he was still out.

Nick tapped his fingers on his knees. Closed his eyes. This was too close for comfort.

Sure…Thor and Loki had gone to the hospital a few times for small injuries or breaks…especially Loki…but this was something new.

Then again, everything about the kids was new.

Thor and Loki hadn’t been traumatized and abused like Tony and the others were.

Steve was fifteen years old, had PTSD, and needed to go to therapy.

Bucky had been used as a child soldier.

Even precious little Peter was traumatized in a way.

Nick took in a deep breath. Slowly let it out.

He had never been prepared for this.

This was… different.

New.

Absolutely terrifying.

The doctors had said Tony’s reactor used too much power and had done too much too fast.

Once he awoke and went home…he’d still need to stay out of school for a while.

And no exercise or other strenuous activity for three weeks.

They would have something to monitor how much energy his reactor was using, and if it started using too much or Tony felt pain in his chest or other problems with his heart…they were ordered to head straight to the hospital.

Nick opened his eyes.

Maria squeezed his hand. “He’s going to be okay. We all will.”

Nick smiled gratefully. “…Thank you for the reminder. I really need it sometimes.”

“You’re Welcome.”

The door opened, and Phil stepped back inside, the kids all following close behind him.

Nick smiled. “Welcome in.”

“Is he still asleep?” Sam asked, raising an eyebrow.

Maria nodded. “Yes. He hasn’t woken up yet.”

“Tony is sleeping…shh…” Peter whispered. Yawned. Laid his head on Steve’s shoulder.

“Will he wake up soon?” Wanda asked. She’d recovered from being sick after a few days. Just a small virus. Thank goodness, it hadn’t spread to anyone else.

“We don’t know. But I’m sure he will.” Maria replied. Motioned for Wanda to sit in her lap.

Wanda did so.

Pietro sat in Phil’s lap after he sat down.

Bruce pushed up his glasses. “What happened to him?”

Nick let out a deep breath. Told them what the doctors had said. “But it’s not certain that’s what happened.” Nick finished. “He’ll…have to rest for a while.”

“Tony sleepy?” Peter asked quietly.

“Yes. Tony’s sleepy right now.” Thor replied. Ruffled Peter’s hair.

Peter squealed and pushed his hand away. “Thor! You’re silly!”

Nick smiled.

Thor made a wonderful oldest sibling.

“He’ll be awake soon though…right?” Natasha asked softly.

Nick nodded. “I’m sure he will.”

Clint nodded and wrapped an arm around Natasha. “Yeah. We can’t lose hope.”

Nick nodded. “Right.”

He looked up and saw Bucky standing still. One of the few who hadn’t spoken. Bucky had that…faraway look in his eyes. Like he was…somewhere else. That wasn’t there anymore. And he was clenching and unclenching his left fist. “Bucky…are you alright?” Nick asked softly.

Bucky slowly looked at him. Nodded. “Yeah. I just…don’t like hospitals.”

“Me neither.” Steve agreed.

Nick slowly nodded. There was more to it than that.

For both of them.

“No one does…but sometimes we have to go inside them.”

Bucky shrugged. “Doesn’t mean we have to like it.”

“Of course not.” Nick agreed.

He’d work on getting to the bottom of it later.

“Hey…Peter replaced me. No fair.”

Nick turned to face the Hospital bed. “Tony!?”

Tony smiled faintly. “I’m awake. And I wake up…and Peter replaced me.”

“Tony!” Peter cried.

“He can get up there, but he needs to be careful.” Phil noted.

Steve nodded and set Peter on the bed.

He instantly crawled over to Tony.

Tony wrapped an arm around him and held him close. “Hey Peter…”

“I love you Tony…” Peter mumbled, curling up into Tony’s embrace.

Those two were close.

There was no doubt about that.

Nick stood and walked over to the bed. He gave Tony a kiss on the forehead.

Tony looked up at him and smiled. “Sorry about the panic.”

“It’s okay Tony…don’t apologize. I’m….just happy you’re alive.”

Tony grinned. “Gonna take a lot more than my heart stopping to take me out.”

Everyone laughed, including Tony.

Phil smiled. “We’re glad you’re awake.”

“Me too. Staying asleep was boring.” Tony replied. Winked.

Maria laughed. “Well…someone’s recovered.”

Nick laughed.

They talked, laughed, joked around, teased, and smiled for a few hours. The doctor came in a few times, happy to see that Tony was awake, talking, and laughing.

But soon the hospital would be closed to visitors.

“It’s probably about time for you all to head home.” Nick noted.

Peter had long since fallen asleep in Tony’s arms.

Loki nodded. “We do have school tomorrow.”

Phil nodded. “At least one of us have to stay here with Tony.”

“I will.” Nick offered.

Maria nodded. “I’ll go home with the kids if both of you want to stay here.”

Phil nodded. “Sounds good to me.”

Steve carefully picked Peter up.

Peter stirred but didn’t wake.

He laid his head on Steve’s shoulder and continued to sleep.

Tony waved to them. “See you later.”

@godlyfantasy12. Finally, there’s another chapter. xD @koshka. @elishavet-pidyon. @keilah-h. @ava-blue. @gracie-j. @queen_of_alvastia.

Chapter 31

“Don’t look yet! You have to wait!”

“What am I even waiting for, Thor? What are you hiding?” Loki asked, Thor’s hands covering his eyes as he led him downstairs.

Thor chuckled. “You’ll see soon! Patience, brother!”

Loki laughed. Thor always wanted him to be patient.

But…Thor wasn’t always the most patient.

“Okay…open them!”

Loki opened his eyes.

“Happy Birthday!” Everyone cried.

Loki looked up, where a banner was hanging above the table. “Happy 18th Birthday”.

“Thank you…all of you.”

Phil smiled and came over, wrapping him in a hug. Maria did the same. “You’re welcome, Loki. Hard to believe you’re this old already.”

Loki chuckled. “I guess so. Fourteen years since me and Thor came, right?”

Phil sighed. “And they’ve flown by way too fast.”

Loki grinned.

He was leaving a chapter behind.

Childhood.

But until he was out of Highschool, he’d enjoy still having a part of a childhood still.

“Now, why don’t we start this very special day with a very special birthday breakfast?” Maria suggested.

Loki’s stomach growled. He grinned. “Sounds great to me!”

They gathered around the table and once everyone had food, dug into the pancakes Maria had made.

They were warm, buttery, and absolutely delicious. “Thank you, Maria. Phil. Nick.” Loki said with a smile.

“You’re Welcome.” They all chimed at once.

Nick seemed a little…distracted though. He was on his phone at the moment, looking at something, Loki guessed.

“Wanda helped make the pancakes, just so you know.” Maria said with a smile.

Loki turned to Wanda. “Well then, thank you, Wanda, for helping make these delicious pancakes.”

Wanda smiled faintly. “You’re welcome…” She whispered.

Loki took another bite.

Before long, laughter filled the room.

Loki smiled.

This…this was a family.

And he loved it.

More than anything else.

~*~

Thor chuckled as Sam sat down on the whoopee cushion.

Sam turned and gave them a smirk and a glare before throwing the cushion at them.

Thor caught it and laughed.

Loki fell off the couch into the floor out of laughter. “It may be old, but it is so good. Great job putting it there before he saw it Pietro.”

Pietro laughed and gave Loki a high-five. “Yeah! It was funny!”

Thor laughed.

Loki could be a little childish in some ways, but when it was important, he was one of the most mature people Thor knew.

But, when it was a day like today, playing pranks was one of Loki’s pastimes.

And, of course, it being his birthday, Thor had agreed to help and actually, to his own surprise, he was…enjoying it.

It was a lot more fun than he’d openly admit.

And besides, the pranks weren’t hurting anyone, which was good. Because some of Loki’s old pranks…well…they’d caused Thor to break his arm. Multiple times.

Thor grinned at his brother. “What’s next?”

Loki laughed. “You like this…don’t you?”

Thor chuckled. “I probably shouldn’t…” He smirked. “But I do anyways. It’s pretty fun. And at least your pranks have improved.”

Loki laughed. “You’ll keep reminding me of that, won’t you?”

“What are all of you doing?”

Thor grabbed Steve’s arm and pulled him down into the floor with them. “Shh…we’re pulling a few pranks. For Loki on his birthday.”

Steve raised an eyebrow. “…Why?”

“Loki likes to pull pranks.”

“They’re fun!” Pietro cried. Laughed.

Steve bit his lip. “I don’t see how…”

“Just try it!” Loki replied. “It’s fun.”

Thor nodded. “It actually is…”

“You’ll get in trouble.”

“For pulling a few harmless pranks? Sure, they might get annoyed, but none of us will get in trouble.” Loki replied. “It’s not like anyone is getting hurt.”

“And annoyance can lead to anger.” Steve argued.

Thor glanced at him.

Into those blue eyes that were very similar to his.

Those eyes full of fear…doubt.

Still struggling to trust.

Phil, he seemed pretty comfortable with him.

Maria, decent.

But to be perfectly honest…Thor noticed that he was still wary of Nick.

And the doubt…the fear…in his eyes were perfect evidence that there was someone Steve didn’t completely trust.

“We won’t get in trouble! Have fun with us, Steve!” Pietro cried.

Steve shook his head. “You’re going to get in trouble…Nick will be mad.”

Thor slowly stood.

He’d been right.

“Steve…he’ll be annoyed at the most.” Loki replied, his brows furrowing together.

“And how do you know that? Annoyance can lead to anger if he’s pushed the wrong way.” Steve replied quietly. Chewed on his bottom lip.

Doubt colored his every movement…his every word.

“I’ll be back, Loki and Pietro. Steve, would you like to go on a walk down the neighborhood with me?” Thor asked with a smile.

Steve looked up at him. “…Uhm…yeah…yeah…sure…”

Thor smiled. “Come along, then. Don’t forget your coat. It is September after all.”

Steve silently followed him.

Thor only hoped that his own experiences could help Steve.

[GodlyFantasy12]
