Loki walked down the sterile halls of the hospital, his heart heavy with concern. The fluorescent lights overhead buzzed softly, illuminating the path before him. His eyes, usually filled with mischief, were now clouded with worry as he navigated through the throng of busy medical staff.
"I must find her," he murmured to himself, his pace quickening as he approached the pediatric wing.
As Loki turned the corner, his gaze fell upon a blind teen girl, Ivy. She sat alone, her hands gently tracing patterns on her dress, her eyes unseeing yet filled with a sense of calm. The quiet strength she exuded drew him closer, compelling him to kneel before her.
He reached out, his fingers lightly brushing against her cheek. "Ivy," he whispered, his voice carrying the weight of unspoken promises.
Ivy turned her head slightly, her senses attuned to the presence beside her. "Loki?" she asked, her voice trembling with a mix of hope and disbelief.
Loki nodded, though she could not see. He leaned forward, pressing a soft kiss on her lips. "You're safe, my love. I will not let you come to harm," he vowed, his words enveloping her like a protective shield.
Ivy smiled softly, her fears momentarily at bay. "I knew you'd come," she replied, her voice steady and full of trust.
Loki took her hands in his, feeling the warmth of her skin against his own. "And I always will," he affirmed, the sincerity in his voice echoing in the quiet room.
Loki stayed by Ivy's side, the world outside forgotten as they sat together in the fading light. His presence was a balm to her soul, a reminder that she was not alone.
"We'll face whatever comes, together," he promised, his words a vow etched in the silence of the room.
As the night deepened, Loki and Ivy shared a moment of peace, their hearts beating in unison. The promise of protection and love lingered in the air, a testament to their unbreakable bond.
He squeezed her hand gently, knowing that this was just the beginning of their journey. Together, they would face whatever challenges lay ahead, fortified by the strength of their connection.
