I AM SO SORRY! I have not had ANY inspiration for this story AT ALL. Only today I was randomly hit with some! I hope I can finish this story with my inspiration at a minimum. Plus, I re-read it and feel I lost the characters a bit these last couple chapters.

Nothing Left To Lose

Chapter 8: Take All You Want From Me

Loki had yet to let go of Stark as they entered the hospital. Tony went up to the counter questioning them, but Loki could not hear any of it. Instead he just held onto the last thing he knew was real. The other Avengers followed the two, finding a spot in the waiting room.

It wasn't long until Natasha had enough, "This is your fault." She screamed at the god, "If you hadn't been near him, he wouldn't have gotten hurt."

Loki moved slowly glancing at the woman, having a blank expression.

"Romanoff, back off." Tony growls towards Natasha.

"It is the truth. He caused this to happen." She glares at Stark in return.

Tony stands suddenly walking towards Natasha, "Well if you have forgotten, Loki is here to help us. He warned us it was going to happen."

"He said we had time to prepare." Natasha states, "We had no such time." She growls.

"That wasn't the full army." Loki mumbles quietly, "it was only a group that went ahead of the main fleet."

"That makes me feel much better," Natasha snaps at the man.

"Everyone needs to calm down," Bruce said being the voice of reason.

"I can't with him around," The assassin motioned towards Loki, causing him to flinch back.

"Romanoff, if anyone has a good reason to be upset, it is Clint." Bruce tells the woman, "If you don't stop this now, I will get very annoyed."

Natasha glares between Bruce and Loki before sitting down on one of the many seats, still eyeing Loki.

"Thanks, Bruce." Tony murmured towards his friend.

"Don't think I am taking your side on this either." Bruce says.

Tony nods in agreement before going back to his original seat. Loki stood suddenly, "I apologize. You are quiet right Romanoff."

Tony shakes his head, "No she is-"

Loki puts his hand up, stopping Tony from speaking anymore, "As such, I shall remove myself from this situation." Loki begins to walk towards the door.

Tony starts to follow the god to the exit, "Loki wait," He tells the god, taking hold of his arm.

"Anthony, let go of my arm please." He murmurs quietly.

"Never. Not again." Tony tells him, "I did that once, I won't make the same mistake."

"It wasn't a mistake," Loki tells him turning around, "I shouldn't be here. I only cause heartache and pain."

Tony shakes his head, "No, you don't. Unless all those fun times we had together meant nothing."

"I- I hurt you, Stark. You shouldn't forgive me." Loki tells him.

Tony sighs, "You did, but you did it for a purpose, even if you can't tell me it, right?"

Loki glances over at Tony, before nodding slowly, "I did." He states quietly.

"Then there you go, you can't be completely bad." Tony told him, "And Clint forgave you, that stands for something."

Loki could only nod in response. Tony sighed out, "Clint would be upset if you weren't here when he woke up."

"What about you?" Loki murmurs.

Tony raises an eyebrow, "What about me…?"

"Would you be upset?" He asks.

Tony stands there a moment, "Yes. I would be very upset. I don't know what I would do if I lost you again."

Loki looks up at the man before bringing his lips on the man's. The kiss held all the pent up emotions he had been feeling. It was rough, teeth and tongues clashing. Tony brought his hands up, cupping the gods face. Tony tilted his head, for their lips to meet closer.

Loki pulled back, their lips still barely touching. "Thank you." He whispers to the man. Loki took hold of Tony's shirt bring them closer once more. This kiss was much softer, Loki gently moving his lips against Tony's. Tony followed the god's movements, letting the god take control.

"Tony." A voice says from beside them knocking them out of their little episode. Loki didn't turn to see who it was, letting Tony answer.

Tony turns to find Bruce standing off to the side. Bruce eyes both of them before saying, "Clint is waking up. They are letting two people visit him at a time."

Bruce let out a sigh, "I suggested we let Loki go first."

Loki turns as he heard the words confused, "Come again?"

"You get to visit Clint first. You should hurry before everyone changes their minds." Bruce says looking at the god.

Loki nodded towards Bruce, "I-I see. Alright." He walks back into the hospital, noticing Natasha's glares.

He turns back, "Who is going back with me?" He asks.

"Well, Natasha wanted to go, but I thought it would end in blood shed. Stark can't go back because you guys would just give Clint a headache, so I volunteered." Bruce stated adjusting his glasses.

Loki eyes the man strangely; He was highly confused as to why Bruce was being so nice to him. Both men were soon walking through the halls of the hospital awkwardly.

"Why are you doing so much for me?" Loki ask the Bruce.

"I trust Clint's judge of character, even if you betrayed us once." Bruce tells him going up to one of the rooms, "But just know, if you hurt anyone of the Avengers again, I will make sure that the hulk smashes your face into the ground." He opened the door, leaving no time for Loki to recover from the threat.

He entered the room to see Clint; he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Frosty, next time we are on the battle field, make sure to not argue with you boy toy," was the first thing Clint told him.

Loki couldn't help but chuckle a bit, "I shall remember that next time." He murmurs softly, "I am sorry for not paying attention. You got hurt because of it." Loki tells him.

"Hey, none of that," Clint tells him, "I was the idiot that saved you." He says, "I did what I felt was right." Clint than gives Loki a grin, "So are you and Tony better now? Seriously, I can't stand all the eye fucking you guys have been doing."

"Clint." Bruce rolls his eyes, "Seriously?"

"You have seen it to." Clint told the man rolling his eyes.

"If what I saw outside is any consolation, yes. They have." Bruce told him with a small grin.

Loki raised an eyebrow in shock, "What…?"

"You two were attached at the lips." Bruce explained rolling his eyes.

"Good job, Lokster! Get in that man's pants. Maybe he will stop moping so much." Clint tells him with a smirk on his face.

"I feel as though you both are against me, and that you are planning something." Loki told them.

Clint couldn't help but chuckle, "Nope. Totally not planning anything, are we Bruce?"

"Not that I know of," Bruce says.

"You are plotting something." Loki says eyeing between the two.

There was a knock on the door causing them to look back, the doctor comes in, "The woman you were with wishes to see her friend. If you could please hurry, she is frightening others."

Both Bruce and Loki nodded in understanding.

"That is our cue to leave," Loki tells Clint nodding at him.

"And just when it was getting fun." Clint shakes his head.

Loki chuckles, "Goodbye, Barton."

"Nice little talk," Clint says before turning to Bruce, "Actually, I want to talk with Bruce a little bit longer if that is alright." He tells the god. Loki nods, before leaving the room, shutting the door.

All he hears through the door is, "How could you have been so stupid," from a seething Bruce. He left before he heard anymore.

Yep. Still feeling like I am missing the characters...hm Perhaps I will be able to redeem it some how... ANYWAYS! I am also adding just a touch of Hulkeye, cause I love that pairing ;D ehehe.
