After laying there staring at the ceiling you finally drift off into a fitful sleep. It hasn't been long when you wake up to... shouting? What the heck had happened?

You frown and slowly get up when you realise that Loki was the one making all the noise. You walk over to the bed and gently pick up his hand, sending soothing waves to him. Then Loki opened his eyes and started to cry.

"Don't look at me!" he sniffled.

"Why not?"

"I'm weak" he says it so softly that you barely hear it.

"Loki, showing emotion is not weak got it?" he doesn't look at you, "Loki," you gently turn his head, "if anything, it makes you strong. To be vulnerable like that could never be called weak."

He scoots over and you sit next to him on the bed, rubbing his back as the tears roll down his face. 

Eventually you move to get up, but Loki grabs your hand. 

You look at him and gently say, "What is it?"

"C-can you..." he trails off. You nod, knowing what he means. Knowing that he's not used to sharing what he's feeling. You gently lay down next to him and you takes his arms, wrapping them around you. He's tense for a bit, but then he relaxes, pulling you a bit closer. You smile softly and find that your insomnias no longer present at all as you drift off to sleep.

The Avengers pov

Everyone gets down for breakfast, when they realize that you're not there.

"Kid, can you go get your sister, she's probably in the basement," Peter nods at your guys's dad and hops up from the stool.

Everyone has started eating when Peter comes back up looking worried... and like he's about to burst into tears.

"Where's your sister kid?" Tony looks worried for his son.

Tears start to roll down his face, as he says, "She's not there, the cell door is open, and Mr.Loki's not there either," he's crying now.

"WHAT!" Steve's furious shout only makes Peter cry harder.

"Kid, it'll be ok," Tony hugs his son, "We have Jarvis, he can show us what happened, okay?" Peter nods sniffling.

"Don't worry, if he took my best friend, we'll find them," Wanda rubs his back and hands him a plate of pancakes. He nods again and the tears slow down.

"Eat, and we can look at the surveillance cameras at the same time," Tony gently kisses Peter's nose and leads him over to the countertop so he can sit.

"Jarvis, follow Kait's movement throughout the building starting just after dinner last night please," Tony and the others all gather around to watch the footage.

They watch until the two of you reach your floor, then Steve says, "That brat"

"Excuse you?" Tony looks at Steve offended.

"You heard me, she's working with a criminal, we have to lock her up too next time," They all stare at Steve.

"No one is locking up my best friend," Wanda's eyes turn red.

"She's not working with a criminal, she being compassionate and having empathy, you idiot," Tony snarls.

"Can we go check on her?" Peter still looks a bit worried.

Everyone turns away from Steve, "Sure kid," Tony hugs his son and they all follow him to the elevator, even Steve.

Peter sprints out ahead of everyone, and knocks, when no one answers he walks in... and abruptly walks back out again.

"What?" Wanda frowns.

"S-she's sleeping," he says nervous about what would happen to you and Mr. Loki if your dad saw that you were sleeping in the same bed.

Tony looks at his son suspiciously, "It's late, we should wake her up," Tony goes to the door

"NO!" they all look at Peter, "I-i mean, um she needs the um she needs the sleep... yeah"

"Alright kid," Tony turns to walk away but when he hears Peter breathe a sigh of relief, he immediately spins and yanks the door open.
