Self harm

Tony tapped his foot impaintly as he waited for Loki to get out of the car, he thought about pulling him out but there were people around and he didn't want Loki to cause a scene.

"Loki get out now" tony warned, "I'm not going to some stupid daycare" Loki replied crossing his arms and slumping back into the car seat.

It had been a week since the others had gotten home and Loki was finally allowed out of the tower and back to tonys house, what Loki didn't know was that the others had found a littles daycare in the area and decided to take Loki there without him knowing.

"Loki please" Tony begged ready to beat this littles behind, Loki shook his head. Tony sighed taking lokis arms and pulling him out the car with some fight of course, "if you know what's good for you you won't fight" Tony said in a low tone.

Loki frowned but not wanting to cause a major scene and embarrass himself he decided it was best to not put up a fight. Tony did have to practically brag him into tinys daycare tho, there weren't people in the waiting area but there was one at the front desk filling out paper work.

Loki quickly stood straight up and moved behind Tony making tonys arm twist behind him, Tony let go of lokis arm to get relief from the small pain he was feeling. Tony sighed and walked up to the front desk with Loki hiding behind him.

"Hello" Tony said putting his hand on the desk, the lady who was running the desk looked up "oh hello you must be the new little" the lady replied giving a small smile.

"Oh not me but the scaredy cat behind me" Tony said blushing slightly because the lady thought he was the little, "oh" the lady stood up from her rolly chair and tilted her head to the side to see Loki peaking his head out from behind Tony.

"Well hello there, my names Chloe.. I'm the lady who runs the front desk" chloe said introducing herself. Loki slowly stepped out from Tony and stood beside him "I'm Loki, I'm a God" replied sounding somewhat shy and somewhat proud of himself for being a God.

Chloe smile grew, "looks like you have a king on are hands, but just because your king doesn't mean you get special treatment ok?". Loki nodded he didn't say king but he'll take it if he was thought of that way, "can I have your name sir?" Chloe asked turning to Tony.

"Tony", Chloe set down putting her hands on her keyboard and typing in tonys name. "Ah yes here we are, you can pick him up at three pm ok?" Chloe half asked half said.

"Alright... Well have fun" Tony said pausing between his sentence to push Loki in front of him, Loki frowned realizing that Tony was leaving him by himself with complete strangers.

"Loki would you like to meet the other kids and your day care teacher?" Chloe asked standing up and walking around her desk to stand by Loki. Loki let out a small whine and looked as Tony walked out the front door leaving Loki by himself.

"Now now it's gonna be ok" Chloe said reassuring him, Chloe took ahold of lokis hand pulling him gently forwards. Loki looked up and began walking with Chloe to the playroom door, Chloe and Loki both stopped in front of it before Chloe twisted the handle and pushed it open.

Lokis eyes lit up there were toys everywhere and people his size and taller playing with the toys and coloring at the table by the wall.

Chloe pulled Loki farther in then letting go of his hand, "everyone" Chloe said loudly. Loki slightly panicked feeling very shy, "this is Loki and he's new so make him feel welcomed ok".

All the littles looked over completely stopping what they were doing to look at Loki, Loki heart started pounding loudly in his chest as he looked down from seeing everyone staring.

Loki felt someone touch his back before hearing the door behind him close, Loki slowly looked up the littles were now doing there own thing making Loki less scared but still very very nervous.

Loki didn't know what to do should he go and talk to someone, go sit and play maybe, he just didn't know. Loki sighed as he saw another little a little bit shorter then him walk up to him, she had a big afro that was covering her eyes she was also wearing a green T-shirt with orange overalls and long black socks.

Loki thought the outfit was absolutely hideous but he didn't dare say it not knowing how she would take it, "hi hi" the girl said.

"Hello" Loki whispered, the girl smiled "I'm Keegan and I'm twenty years old but my little age is one through five". Loki didn't answer only stared at her not sure what to do or say, he didn't have to think long because another little was walking over.

"Sup I'm spot cause of the spot around my eye, I'm twenty four and a half and my little age is eight and nine" the boy said, the boy had white hair and a black shirt with a gaming controller on it and it said 'loser' in big white letters below it.

The boy was also wearing blue jeans and had big black spot around his eye and clip on ears and a tail, "that's angel he didn't feel like getting up but he wanted us to invite you over" spot said crossing his arm and adjusting his body to where he was leaning on one foot.

Loki nodded and looked over at angel, he had short brown hair in the same cut as spot but his skin was different he was black but covered in pale spots large and small, he had on a pink skirt and pink short sleeve ruffle shirt with clip on angel wings and a halo headband.

Loki thought his skin was beautiful, he had never seen skin like than before it was special. "Sooo what's your age?" Keegan asked extending the O, "oh um I'm twenty two and my little age I guess is one through seven" Loki whispered.

"Same as angel" spot added to lokis sentence, "come on were building a tower" Keegan said excitedly. Loki felt a smile creep on his face as he followed spot and Keegan to the play mat where the tower was being built.

Spot set down next to angel and Keegan set down across from them, "do I sit down as well?" Loki asked. "Yesh" Keegan replied patting the ground next to her, Loki carefully set down crisscross apple sauce way.

"Hi Loki" angel said adding a block to the tower, "hi" Loki mumbled back. "Now we have a few rules" angel said pausing before continuing "you see the girl behind you?".

Loki turned around seeing a long haired blond headed girl, she was wearing a pretty blue skirt and a matching blue shirt she also had on a gold necklace and bracket with fancy white shoes.

"Her names sapphire and there's are her minions beside her" angel said in a angry tone, Loki saw two large guys sitting next to her they both had short brown hair and were both wearing skinny jeans with a hoodie.

"Dart and dagger, there twin brothers" angel sighed. "Anyway there little age is ten and they rule this daycare" Loki turned back around, "the rules are simple, one don't fight with them second give them any food your have third if you have to go potty don't tell them they'll stop you and make you wet yourself and forth when the carer isn't looking be prepared to get smacked around" angel said listing of the rules.

Loki frowned he wasn't about to be bossed around by some big idiots, "k" Loki replied after angel glared at him waiting for an answer.

"Now that's down let's continue the tower" angel replied taking a block that was next to him and putting it up at the top of the tower.

It had been a few minutes and the daycare carer wasn't back, Loki had yet to meet them so he wasn't sure if it was a guy or a girl and wasn't sure if they were nice or not.

But even know Loki was worried he was having a great time playing build the tower, the tower was almost as high as him when he stood up and everyone was being so careful to not knock it down.

But nothing ever lasts for Loki, he could hear giggling behind him and his new friends looked over there face written with fear. Loki lifted his eye brow turning around seeing the two boys and sapphire standing behind him.

The girl giggled softly before shoving Loki into the tower knocking it down, "opps" she said laughing. Her laugh wasn't a normal laugh no it was like her whole body was filled with evil and needed to come out through her laughter. (It may be hard to understand but I mean she has a wicked and evil laugh)

Loki groaned in slight pain from the force he was pushed onto the blocks, the blocks were made of wood and not the hard plastic so it was more painful to fall on them.

Sapphire gave a creepy grin and snapped her fingers, "what's wrong fatas*" on of the boys asked even know Loki was smaller then him. Loki couldn't tell which one was dart and which was dagger they both looked exactly the same.

Loki frowned feeling his angry boil, "ya come on freak what's wrong, can't we have a little fun" the other boy said. "Worthless" "pathetic honestly" "stupid b*tch" the boys said taking turns throwing insults, Loki was beyond angry and without thinking of the consequences chucked a block at sapphires head it fit her right in the mouth causing her to bite down hard on her lip making it bleed.

The blood slowly dripped off her lip and hit the hard wood floors, "you'll pay for that" she snarled. "Loki are you crazy!" Angel yelled, "didn't we tell you not to mess with them" Keegan said in a whisper clearly terrified of the older littles.

Loki growled standing up "they don't get to pick on me like that", " please Loki don't" spot begged as he gripped lokis hand. Loki roughly pulled away from his grip "stay out of it" Loki said not looking over at spot ready to battle.

The girl let out a low rumble as she stepped back and the boys stepped forward, Loki could see the wicked smile forming on sapphires face from behind the boys.

What Loki didn't realized was how strong the boys were and he was much to weak for them he could possibly take on one but both not a chance without his magic.

Loki put his hands up and so did one of the other boys, he threw a quick punch straight into lokis eyes making Loki go down. He let out a gasp as his head hit the play mat sure it was soft but not soft enough to not cause pain.

Before Loki realized it one of the boys were onto of him digging his nails into lokis arms and dragging them down, Loki could feel the hot sticky blood seep out his half healed scars.

Yes Loki hadn't cut in a long time but he did scratch his arms when he was nervous causing the cuts to break open and bleed not much but enough for someone to notice, he never told the other Avengers tho and especially not Thor or his papa.

Loki whined out as he turned his head to the side seeing a block not to far away, Loki wiggled one of his arms free and reached for the block. Loki took it in his hand and slammed it into the boys head who was on top of him.

The boy fell back clutching his head as tears welled up in his eyes and slipping down his face, the other boy looked pissed "how dare you hurt my brother!" The boy shouted.

The boy leaped on top of Loki grabbing his shirt and picking lokis head and body up off the ground before smashing it back down, this sent shooting pains through lokis head and back he wanted to cry but he wasn't about to show his enemys he was weak.

Loki put his foot up kicking as hard as he could into the boys stomach, the boy fell to the side his mouth filled with vomit and spilled onto the floor. The impact must have upset the boys stomach causing him to puke up what they had earlier.

Loki winced in pain as he stood up on shaky legs, he was sure he could take sapphire she was just a weak girl right?.
Sapphire stepped forward Loki took the opportunity to lunge at her and pin her down, he smiled throwing a punch to her nose he expected her to cry but all she did was smile.

Loki threw another punch breaking sapphires nose, he stopped when he heard the door click open and saw a random girl he could only think was the carer and spot in the doorway.

Suddenly sapphire busted into tears, Loki now knew exactly what was happening she made it look like he attacked her. "He hit me, he hit me" sapphire sobbed out, "no!" Loki yelled not sure how to get the right word out to explain.

"Loki get off of her now!" The carer said angrily, Loki did as he was told he already knew he was in deep trouble. "Now someone explain what is happening here" the carer said crossing her arms.

"He attacked us because I accidentally knocked over his tower" sapphire said with her fake tears running down her face, "that's not true, she knocked down the tower on purpose then got the boys to hit me!" Loki yelled trying to explain.

"He's lying he's not even hurt!" Sapphire yelled back, it was true Loki had no bruises since it wasn't enough time to set in the only main injury Loki had was his arms but he wasn't about to show the whole class his cut up arms.

"That's..." Loki whispered stopping his sentence not sure what to say, "Loki bullying and lying is not tolerated, I'm gonna have to call your caregiver to come get you" the lady said uncrossing her arms.

"But I didn't do anything" he turned hoping the others would stand up for him but they kept quiet and completely ignored him by looking away, Loki growled "some friends you guys are".

"Loki!" The teacher yelled, "get in time out now!" The carer shouted pointing to the time out corner. Loki eyes filled with tears as he made his way to the time out corner, he slowly set down crisscross apple sauce style and put his hands in his lap.

The carer turned and walked out angrily, sapphire as soon as she saw the lady leave she stopped crying. "I always win" she said giggling softly, she stood up brushing her skirt off and walking over to the snack table pulling out a chair and sitting down the boys soon followed after.

Loki put his palm to his face wiping his tears away, he heared a noise and looked up from his lap angel was standing right in front of him. "I'm sorry we didn't stand up for you we just don't want to get a beating too", "I don't care go away" Loki mumbled.

"Please forgive us" angel said frowning, "go away!" Loki shouted putting up his middle finger. Angel eyes filled with tears as well as he turned and ran back to the play mat, Loki put down his hand he was hoping they would be real friends that would stand up for him but he guessed he was wrong.

Loki heart began beating louder as time went on, steve was gonna be so mad at him. "Loki your caregiver is here" Loki looked up seeing the the nice lady from the front desk in the doorway.

Loki stood up slowly walking towards her, she put her hand on his back gently pushing his out the door. When Loki looked around for steve he didn't see him he saw Natasha, he liked Natasha but she wasn't his papa.

Loki fear grew more as he got closer and saw the peer anger radiating off of her, "have a good day Loki" Chloe said waking around her desk to sit down.

Loki gave a small wave as Natasha grabbed Loki arms and pulled him to the front door, "I'm pissed at you Loki" Natasha whispered as she pushed the front door open and pulled Loki to the car.

"It wasn't my fault" Loki said in a whisper, "I don't want to hear it young man" Natasha said opening the car door and shoving Loki in. Loki fell forward and stumbled to get up right before the car door was slammed shut, he tried to buckle before Natasha got in but his mind was slipping deep into little space and he just couldn't figure it out.

"Ma- Natasha" Loki said caughting himself before calling her mama, Loki didn't know why he wanted to call her mama maybe because he was scared or she reminded him of her.

"What" Natasha said annoyed, "buckle plwease" Loki replied slurring his words. Natasha anger slowly left not all the way but most of it was gone she knew Loki was deep in headspace and she didn't want to scare him anymore then he already was.

Natasha got out of the car and made her way around the car in till she got to Loki's door, she opened it up and took the buckle from Loki buckling him up.

Natasha heard small sniffs and hicks, she stood up from reaching over Loki. His mind saddened for the clearly very upset boy, Loki had tear pooling down his face and snot dripping down his nose and looked two seconds away from sobbing.

"Loki when we get home were gonna talk about this ok baby?" Natasha said, Loki nodded. Before Natasha left to get back in the drivers seat she wipped away Loki's tears with her hand.

On the car way home she heard Loki choking back sobs and the small whines of pain he was letting out, maybe he wasn't all in the wrong.

*at home*

The car ride seemed a lot longer then it actually was everything was so silent except for the soft sounds coming from the back seat, once Natasha put the car in park and twisted the key to turn the car off Loki started sobbing.

Natasha got out the car and walked around to his door she opened it up gasping at her little who had a small puddle of blood under his wrist and blood on his hand and finger nails, "baby what happened!" She shouted not meaning to but was very worried about Loki.

"I'm sowwy" Loki sobbed out, Natasha frowned reaching over and unbuckling Loki from his seat. She reached in picking Loki up and carrying him into the tower using her foot to close the car door, she pushed the front door open and stepped into the tower.

Loki cried softly into her shoulder, Loki was soon put down onto of the kitchen table. Natasha frowned even more as she could now clearly see a black eye forming, "Loki honey what happened? " she asked grabbing the kitchen towel from the counter and turned on the faucet wetting the towel so Loki could clean his hand.

"Well I made a tower and sapphire knocked it down on purpose by pushing me into it then her minions called me bad names so I threw a block at her...they got mad and hit me so I hit back but the carer came in and sapphire made it look like I did it for no reason" Loki said taking a breath in between his small ramble.

"I'm sorry that I didn't believe you" Natasha said wiping down Loki's hand, "itsh Otay" ←(it's okay). "Now let me see your arm" Natasha said giving a small smile to keep her from crying, Loki whined as he reached down and rolled up his sleeve.

His cuts were looked fresh even know they weren't and were covered in blood, Natashas eyes grew wide "Loki when did you do these?" Natasha said in a panic.
"It's been a while I just keep scratching them and they open" Loki whispered already ready to cry thinking he would be sent to a mental hospital.

"Aw baby" Natasha said lifting her hand up and running it through Loki's hair, "it's gonna be ok I'm gonna take care of it" Natasha said relying to herself.

Loki smiled and nodded "thaks mama" ←(thanks mama), Natasha heart melted with happiness "did you call me mama?" Natasha questioned. Loki face lit up a light pink at the realization of what he said, "sowwy" Loki mumbled.

"It's ok, you can call me mama" Natasha said reassuring Loki, Loki looked down kicking his feet slightly. "Alright let's get you all bandaged up and into some comfy clothes then I need to make a phone call" Natasha said, Loki nodded slipping off the kitchen table to follow Natasha.

Let's just say Natasha and Steve made a few very very angry calls to the daycare getting sapphire and the boys expelled.
