Summary: done for prompt at avengerkink

Bruce has no recollection of having sex with Loki, but that is definitely Loki in his bed naked the next morning.

To make things worse, Bruce finds out weeks later that he is pregnant. Cue mood swings and Hulk angst.

Notes: So i love Bruce's cousin, so she is mentioned here, because she is awesome 
I think jump between the two hulk movies and how i think mark ruffalo would be
Also, at the end, I read by Viking Answer Lady, that there was this type of ritual in a wedding ceremony so i kind of added that in there to resemble a type of relationship but not emphasize it because to me, it is not about officially being married or in a relationship with set boundaries, it is about the growth of the relationship and wanting to try and be with that person....or maybe i was getting lazy....i can't tell at times

Part 1

……………………………………….
3rd month
……………………………………………
Bruce stared out the window, one hand pressed against the window pane and the other rested on his stomach. He only had a slight belly; it was beginning to be noticeable.

“Hey, are you ok?”
“Yeah, just looking at the rain.” Bruce muttered, not bothering to turn and look at Clint.

“Do you want to go out on a drive? Not sure that walking would be a good idea because you can get sick, but driving! We could do that!” Clint chirped eagerly.
Bruce smiled, because that would be nice.
Thor joined them, also wanting to go outside and see the rain. Loki found his way into the car not soon after they started driving.

“Brother, stop making it rain already.” Loki smirked while Thor looked affronted.
“Me? I am doing no such thing! I do not play with nature in such ways unless utterly necessary.” Thor stated while Loki snickered.

“Oh please, since when?”
“I will not have you speaking badly of me to my nephew or niece!” Thor stated, clearly agitated at the idea that the baby could be listening in and getting a bad idea of her or his uncle.

“I think the baby is going to be a girl!” Clint suddenly stated.
“I think it is going to be a boy.” Thor stated proudly.

“What’s wrong with a girl?” Clint shot back.
“Either boy or girl, the baby will be gorgeous.” Loki smirked, looking smug.

“Yes, they’ll get it from their mother.” Clint retorted.
Bruce meanwhile was sleeping on Loki’s shoulder.
………………………………………………..
Bruce curled up on the sofa, watching reruns of Oprah. Some of the episodes were just so sad.
Bruce sniffed and took another tissue.

“Bruce what are you doing this late at night?” Steve was the one who found him, crying away in the dark while watching Oprah.

“Watching Oprah.” Bruce muttered, while Steve just looked from the TV to Bruce, to back at the TV.
“Is that why you are crying?” Steve asked, only to have Bruce glare at him.

“So what if I’m crying?! You wouldn’t understand!!!” Bruce cried out, sobbing even harder, it made Steve panic.

“Nothing is wrong with crying.” Steve quickly said, trying to appease the other. Bruce sniffed and looked at Steve, looking so wounded that it just made Steve feel like the worst person in the world.

“Could I watch it with you?” Steve asked, a bit weakly, unsure of what to expect from the other. Bruce just beamed and motioned for the other to join him on the sofa, shoving a bowl of chips into his hands. Steve smiled and leaned back to watch this Oprah show.

It was at the crack of dawn that Thor stumbled out into the kitchen to grab some water, and noticed the Television box still on. He moved into the living room and smiled at the sight of Bruce and Steve, sleeping on the sofa. He was sure that would not be good for Bruce’s body, but they looked so peaceful together.
………………………………………
“You know, we are going to need to get you new clothes Bruce. You are going into your fourth month and will you won’t be fitting in your clothes at all anymore. You luckily, wear really baggy clothes most of the time.” Natasha pointed out, sipping at her tea as she watched Bruce flip through a magazine on nurseries.

“Do not remind me, that I am getting fat.” Bruce grumbled, knowing that he wasn’t fat, but also not being to not think and feel like he is fat.

“Also, your breasts are getting slightly bigger, aren’t they?” Natasha inquired, inspecting Bruce more closely. Bruce flushed at the question and nodded.

“The doctor does not know if I will be able to breast feed, but it is a possible. Not sure how I am feeling about that one.” Bruce stated, a bit thoughtful.

“Come, we should get you some clothes perhaps next week.” Natasha muttered, picking up her phone to text the others.

“I am sure they don’t have…..maternity/paternity clothes.” Bruce wrinkled his nose at the thought.

“He doesn’t need to go shopping because I can just magic clothes.”
Loki was suddenly standing there, next to them.
“Would you quit doing that!” Bruce huffed, shooting Loki an annoyed look. Natasha just rolled her eyes.

“He needs real clothes.” Natasha simply stated making Loki look affronted at the thought that his magic was not real. It could be very much real. Bruce just rolled his eyes.
…………………………………………………
4th month
……………………………………………….
Loki was beginning to become a normal occurrence there. He could pretty much just come and live there.  Except, they did not broach the subject because it was up to Bruce. They did not know if Bruce wanted Loki to live there and be a permanent resident.

There was still suspicious and hesitation between them, but Thor was ecstatic at having his brother back. The others were warming up to Loki, in the sense that they did not try to kill him or suspect that every single movement was Loki trying to kill them. They had gotten used to him being around.

Except for Tony, who was still waiting for an apology concerning the window and Loki, he was not about to apologize because he was not sorry. He would throw the other out a window again.

Either way, Bruce first trimester had passed and things were looking good.
…………………………………………………
“Hey! During this month you can have the doctor tell you the gender of the baby!” Steve stated excitedly, looking up from the pregnancy book he was reading. He was lying on the ground and looking at Bruce, like an eager puppy. (Thor and Steve had similar looks at times, they both tended to remind him of Golden Retrievers….actually, Steve was more like Lassie)

Bruce himself was sitting on a recliner with his feet up, reading one of the many pregnancy books that Coulson had bought for the whole house.

“I don’t know if I want to know, Loki?” Bruce looked over at Loki, who was, even after having gone through a pregnancy himself (though it was as a horse) and having seen his ex-lover through some pregnancies, the books could have some new information.

Loki looked up and frowned, as he thought about it.
“I think you should, so we can prepare the nursery!” Tony grinned at the idea, ohh…he could make a crib. It would be the best crib in the world. Install Jarvis on it to make sure the baby is extra safe.

“We’ll see.” Bruce stated, looking back down to his book. Loki looked at Bruce with a frown, but went back to his book.
…………………………………………………..
Every time Bruce went to the doctor for his ultrasound, he was afraid of bad news. He was afraid that something would be wrong with the baby. He was afraid of what he would see and if he could handle it.

Each of the avengers had come with him at least once for the ultrasound. This was the first time that Loki was coming with him, for Loki always said that it was pointless because he could tell the baby was fine through magic. Bruce had quickly argued it was not the same, the others helped convinced Loki to come along.

Now there they were, Bruce lying down, staring impatiently at the screen to see his baby.
Loki was holding onto his hand, and it was strange that it did not feel strange. Loki had taken being a father, again, quite well. He was serious about sticking around and Bruce, he did not understand what he felt for the other without having the presence of the baby around.

He was the father, that was true, and he was there for the baby, Bruce knew that…..but what did Bruce feel for Loki? Besides gratitude for being there?

“See, there he or she is. Looking still healthy, he or she is developing just fine and it seems that your body is stretching to make room for the baby. So far it is following the same signs as it would in a female pregnancy.”

Bruce sighed in relief, as he watched his baby. He could see it shift slightly and begin to move. Bruce had began to feel the baby shifting, it was slightly uncomfortable but it let him know his baby was alive. Bruce turned to look at Loki, and he couldn’t stop grinning at the awe look on Loki’s face.

“Do you want to know the gender? I think we should be able to get a good guess.” The doctor smiled softly at the two. Bruce hesitated and glanced at Loki, but he just shrugged, letting him it was up to him. Did he want to know?

“Yes, we would like to know.” Bruce answered.
“Congratulations! You are having a baby girl! I’ll print a picture out for you to take.” The doctor grinned, giving Bruce a towel before leaving the room.

Bruce looked at Loki, who was still in a stupor.
“We are going to have a baby girl.” Loki muttered, reaching over to take Bruce’s hand back in his. Bruce nodded as he thought about it.

It was strange, being here, knowing he was going to be a mother. He had given up on ever having children once Hulk came along. He had dreamed of having them, but it was pointless when you couldn’t be with anyone and the government was after you. Yet, look where he was now.

……………………………………………………….
It was nice having Loki around, it calmed Bruce down. Loki said that it was just a slight shift of magic that helped keep Hulk at bay. Bruce figured that was the way that Loki ended up knocking Bruce up.

However, it happened that Bruce was outside buying new clothes with Natasha and Coulson when a sudden crash was heard on the other side of the store. A sudden explosion rattled the whole store. People began screaming and running outside.

Bruce, he did not take it well. Coulson and Natasha tried but it was useless. In a panic, Bruce changed into the Hulk and stormed off.

No one was save from Loki’s wrath as he rushed to find Bruce.
Hulk had ran back to the pine forest he had found himself that other time. He was curled on his side, armed wrapped tightly to his stomach. He had a baby. Hulk was going to protect mini-them. mini-them was tiny and needed protection. Like mother, mother protected them.

Loki found Hulk, still curled up on its side, watching Loki suspiciously. He pressed away from the other as Loki tried to come closer.

“You are Father. Remembers Hulk’s father not good. Do not trust.” Hulk grunted and Loki, knew only the slightest bit to know that it involved a bad childhood.

“I had two bad fathers Hulk, I know what that is like. I won’t be like that.” Loki cooed, slowly inching forward towards Hulk. Hulk frowned and watched Loki, warily.

“I will protect the baby and you, I vow it. I am not like the others.” Loki muttered, and for the first time in a while, he allowed his skin to turn blue and his eyes to change to red. He saw Hulk’s eyes widen in confusion before his eyebrows furrowed.

“You are different.” Hulk muttered, and Loki just smiled and inched so he was resting his hand on Hulk’s legs.

“It is ok, you can sleep now, let Bruce out.” Loki muttered, watching as Hulk’s body began shrinking until Loki was kneeling down next to a crying Bruce.

“I changed! Shit Loki! I changed! The baby!”
“Bruce it is ok, our child is fine.” Loki tried calming Bruce down, but Bruce couldn’t stop crying.

“I can feel it through magic, remember? It is very much intact, but if it will make you feel better, we can go to the doctor, right now. Alright?” Loki muttered, pulling Bruce into his arms and holding him tightly.

Bruce nodded and just like that, they appeared at headquarters.

The others rushed towards them, Natasha and Coulson looking crushed and guilty.
But there was nothing to worry, the doctor checked Bruce and said the baby was fine. It seemed that the same magic that made Bruce pregnant kept the baby safe through the change. It remained the same size and in the same pouch, completely fine.

Everyone breathed an audible sigh of relief, even Loki.
…………………………………..
5th month
………………………………….
Bruce woke up late at night, wincing slightly every time that she moved. He could feel her moving more and more. It was amazing but sometimes, he really wanted to sleep.

“What is wrong?” Loki asked, turning from his spot by the window.

“Come here.” Bruce muttered, motioning for Loki to come over. Loki hesitated before walking over and sitting down
on the edge of the bed. Bruce just reached over and tugged so he was laying down next to him. He then grabbed Loki’s hand and placed it upon his belly, which was protruding more than before. Bruce watched as Loki’s face was filled with such tenderness as he felt their baby girl move.

“Stay with me. Live here with us.” Bruce muttered, closing his eyes not wanting to see the other’s reaction. After what felt like an eternity, Loki answered by sitting up and Bruce felt his heart break; until he heard the thudding of shoes and the rustling of the bed sheets.

Bruce smiled as Loki slid next to him.
………………………………..
Bruce frowned as he watched Tony and Steve banter back and forth. They were not at each other’s throat all the time, and they usually were just randomly at odds for really pointless things. It was just the way their friendship worked.

Right now they were arguing about names.
“You do know that it is our child and we will name it as we wish to.” Loki snorted, looking up from his breakfast.

“No, you will be naming it Antonia, after her uncle.” Tony stated proudly.
“I think Virginia will be a good name, after the best girlfriend in the world.” Natasha added, earning a quick kiss from Pepper.

“We have no decided what we will name her, but I agree that Virginia is a lovely name.” Bruce spoke up from the science magazine he had just received.

“As long as you don’t name it something nerdy.” Tony huffed which earned him a look from everyone else, but Thor, who still was not sure what that meant.

“Tony, you make robots, if someone isa  nerd here, it is you.” Clint smirked, launching a wad of paper at Tony, who just pouted.

The others just laughed.
………………………………………
“So, you and Loki are sleeping together?” Coulson inquired, causing Bruce to flush. Everyone else had noticed it, but Natasha thought it was best to leave it alone, so did Pepper. Thor figured that his brother would let him know in time. Tony did know when to remain quiet and just let things go. Steve and Clint were worried but they decided to wait and just keep an eye on Bruce to make sure he was alright. That left Coulson, who would be the one less flustered or rude about it.

“We are just sleeping, just sleeping.” Bruce muttered, running a hand through his hair.

“It is fine if you are doing more than sleeping as long as it is safe of course. According to the books, it is normal to crave sex.” Coulson stated, sounding way too factual than it should have sounded. Bruce just groaned and rubbed his face. He was awkward enough before he was the Hulk, once he was the Hulk, he was the epitome of awkward, now that he was pregnant, he didn’t even know he could get more awkward.

“Yes, well, he is not interested, besides I am fat.” Bruce muttered. Really, Bruce had at times wondered just how true this fat idea was and he realized that it was a big deal. He looked at the others who could easily run around with a shirt and Bruce felt beyond ugly. Before he was pregnant, he already had a low self-esteem, not liking his image, but now?

“But are you happy with him, is this for the baby? Or….?” Coulson asked, and Bruce could hear the worry in the other’s tone.

“I don’t know. I am glad he is here, I really am. I feel secure, not that I don’t feel secure with you all, but with him, it is different. It is hard to tell because this is not the most normal thing in the world after all.” Bruce laughed softly causing Coulson to smile.

It was nice seeing Bruce laugh more and more. Coulson thought that even with all the trouble, the pregnancy was good for Bruce…..and Loki.
………………………………………
Bruce was in a rage.
“Where the hell is my ice cream!!!” He cried out, looking all over the fridge for it but finding it nowhere.

“You finished it last night!” Thor squeaked out, pointing to the still empty tub in the trash. Bruce glared at Thor, before sighing sadly and nodding.

“Oh, I was just really craving it.” Bruce muttered, but it didn’t last long before Clint and Pepper came in with a bag of groceries. Bruce perked up and looked at them expectantly.

“Yes, we got you your ice cream, which I am glad is normal, if perhaps slightly too bland. Really, vanilla?” Clint sighed dramatically, before handling the ice cream over to Bruce, who eagerly began to open it and eat it.
……………………………………..
Month 6
……………………………………….
Bruce looked at himself on the mirror. He was getting really big. He was definitely pregnant, no way of not noticing it now.

He was big. He also had big feet. His breasts were big. Everything about him was big!
Bruce felt himself beginning to tear up.

His face was all red and flushed! He looked horrible!!
“Bruce, what’s wrong?”

Bruce turned to glare at Loki, before looking back at his reflection. He was ugly.
“I am ugly.” He stated simply, surprising Loki.

“You are not ugly, you look the same-“

“What?! Are you saying that I always look fat?! Is that it?!” Bruce hissed, eyes narrowing dangerously.
Bruce did not let the other respond and instead stormed out to eat more ice cream.
……………………………………..
After a while, Loki made his way back to their room, hoping that Bruce had calmed down. He quietly closed the door behind him, before very slowly walking over to sit on the bed.

“Bruce?” he whispered, watching as the other’s chest rose up and down. Loki couldn’t help looking at the swollen breasts, heaving up and down. He wondered how big they would be getting, would Bruce breastfeed? Loki found himself shifting slightly, finding the image very appealing.

Of course he had shake his head and remembered that this was his pregnant…..whatever Bruce was to him….what was Bruce to him?

Loki stared down at Bruce’s face, before reaching up to gently caress his cheek.
…………………………………..
Loki groaned as he was being caressed, down his chest, a hand playing with the edge of his boxers. A mouth began to nibble at his neck and it was all so good…..
“Bruce….”

Wait, Bruce?
Loki quickly grabbed Bruce’s roaming hands and opened his eyes to look into Bruce’s chocolate brown eyes.

“What are you doing?” Loki gasped out, because really. He was supposed to act like a hero and not take his very pregnant….Bruce, when he was looking at him with hungry eyes, cheeks flushed, tongue coming out to lick his lips. Loki could feel Bruce’s breasts pressing against him and damn….

“Please.” Bruce pleaded and Loki felt himself crumbling under Bruce because…he just couldn’t….
Loki bent to kiss Bruce hungrily on the lips. He could be gentl, he would be gentle.

They could do this.
……………………………………..
Loki whistled as he went about the store, tagging after Tony, Clint, Steve and Thor who were trying to buy things for the nursery. He could have magic-ed it all but they said this was more fun.

Loki had to admit that watching them fight each other was rather hilarious. He also had to admit, it was nice being there and just, shopping.

Strange.
……………………………………….
“What color should we paint the nursery?” Pepper asked as she looked through catalogues of paints while Natasha looked at catalogues of carpets.

“I say we go with green, since it is her parent’s respective color.” Natasha muttered.
“Yeah, I think green is perfect!” Darcy grinned excitedly, looking over to where Jane and Bruce were looking at child-proofing the room.

“I like it, I think Loki will like it too.” Bruce nodded, glancing at the others with a tiny smile.
………………………………………..
Month 7
……………………………………..
Bruce was big and the baby was beginning to kick often.

Darcy had been the first of the others to feel her kick. She had been so excited and quickly tugged Jane over to feel the baby as well. Bruce smiled at the utter happiness and joy in their faces.

Tony had actually been the next person to feel the baby girl kick. It had been late at night and neither could sleep. Bruce was watching some children’s cartoon, since he figured he would get his baby started with learning things.
Tony had stumbled out and sat next to him, eyes peering into the TV.

Bruce had just taken the other’s hand and placed it on his tummy and watched as Tony relaxed and sighed at the
feel of the baby kicked.

Thor had been so excited when his brother brought it up. Bruce just smiled as Thor ever so gently placed his hand on Bruce’s stomach to feel the strong kick of his niece.

Steve was next and he was just so in love with the baby girl. He was grinning the whole time.

For the first Bruce watched as every shadow and dark past left Clint when he felt the baby kick. He truly laughed and was joyful after that.

Natasha had been adorable, asking softly if she could feel the baby kick. Bruce nodded and guided her to the one spot that never failed. Natasha had such a soft and young look as she experience the moment. Pepper giddily followed after.

Coulson cooed as he sat there and felt the baby kick for minutes. Bruce knew that Coulson would be a great father himself whenever the time came.
……………………………………..
“Loki, we hadn’t decided on a name yet. What do you want her to be named?” Bruce muttered, looking over at Loki who was placing some animal stickers on the wall of the nursery.

“I don’t know, how about Jennifer?” Loki turned to look at Bruce, who tensed at the name.
“You read my files?” Bruce asked, with a tiny smile because he knew that most of the others had his files by now.

“Tony gave them to me.” Loki shrugged, going back to putting up the stickers. Bruce smiled at the idea of naming his daughter after his cousin, the last person of his family that lived and that truly loved him. He hoped she was doing well.
……………………………………..
“So, are you and Bruce in an official relationship brother? Will you make him an honest man?” Thor asked Loki, who quickly looked at Thor with surprise.

“What?!” he frowned, unsure if he had correctly.
“Will you marry Bruce?” Thor asked, a bit slower as if he were talking to a child, which automatically made the other glare at him.

“I, why are you asking this?” Loki huffed, crossing his arms defensively.

“Because I see the way that Bruce looks at you. If you are going to just get up and leave after this, brother than it be best you tell him. I do not want him getting hurt because you are too afraid.” Thor stated simply, before standing up and walking away.
……………………………………..
Bruce was trying not to worry too much because he knew that wouldn’t be good for the baby. He just. He was going to be a parent. He was going to be looking after a child. Him!

How was he going to do this? He did not have the best childhood, and even now he gets nightmares sometimes. How is he going to survive through this? what if he takes after his father? What if he does something horrible?

Bruce clutched a pillow tightly to his chest as he cried silently.
He felt arms wrap around, but it did nothing to soothe him.

“What is wrong, tell me.”

“I’m going to be a horrible parent. I’m going to turn into my father. I will ruin my family.” Bruce sobbed after a while.

“No you won’t, you are nothing like your father. You take after your mother. Do not be afraid Bruce. You’ll be fine. Trust me. This once, trust me to make it alright.” Loki muttered, placing a kiss on Bruce’s shoulder.
……………………………………..
Month 8
……………………………………..
Bruce was pretty much in one place most of the days. It was so much trouble getting up and sitting down. It was just not worth it.

It was nice having people around to help him with things. He wondered how things would have been had he been alone in his pregnancy. Horrible, he was sure of it. He was also beginning to worry because it wouldn’t be long before his baby was born. He knew that there were still things that could go wrong, but he was hopeful that it would all turn well.

Luckily, they had already discussed how the baby would be born, which would be through a c-section. Loki said that the magic will alert Bruce when it was time for the baby to be born.

Bruce was worried for Loki, who had been rather distant lately and lost in thought. He didn’t want to think about what that meant. He knew that after the baby was born he would have to figure exactly what Loki was to him, besides as Darcy put, his baby daddy.
……………………………………….
Bruce sighed as he woke up to an empty bed. Loki had been leaving early in the morning and Bruce didn’t want to worry, he didn’t want to show that he was hurt.

What was he expecting? They didn’t love each other, did they? Did he love Loki?

No. Loki didn’t love him back so that didn’t matter.
……………………………………..
Bruce was confused as to why he was being led around, when all he wanted was to sit down dammit!

He was suddenly pulled into a nice establishment that was alone. It looked close actually. He was led to the back where he saw in big letter, Baby Shower!

He looked as the others began to emerge and he couldn’t but cry. Of course he was crying, but he had gotten used to it by now so he didn’t feel too uncomfortable about it.

“Thank you, all of you. I am glad to have all of you as my family.” Bruce muttered, before hugging everyone, as best as he could with his rather big belly.

He laughed and sat next to Loki, who was smiling widely with the others. Was this why Loki had been distant?
Bruce decided to not think about and instead enjoy the cake and gifts.
………………………………………
Last Month
………………………………………..
Bruce had known that this could happen anytime now. Everyone was on alert for it.

Bruce had not expected it to be that painful. He felt a stabbing pain shoot up his spine. He couldn’t stifle the pained gasp as he clutched his stomach.

“Shit.” He groaned, clenching his eyes shut as another wave of pain hit him.
“What-“

“The baby is ready!” Bruce snapped, before crying out in pain.
Loki was there in seconds, disappearing and appearing at the hospital with Bruce. (the others were there in minutes, because their jet could be used in emergency and this was one.)

It was about an hour later that Loki emerged with a bundle in his arms.
Jennifer Frigga Banner was born and sleeping peacefully in her father’s arms.

“She is so beautiful.” Pepper muttered as she looked down at the baby.
“How is Bruce?” Coulson asked, looking at Loki who just smiled.

“He is well, tired, but well.”
……………………………………………………
Bruce sighed as he gently placed Jennifer down on his bed. She was so small and soft.
There were times when her skin would get a soft blue hue, something she inherited from her father.

“Sleep now Jenny.” Bruce muttered, turning around only to find himself face to face with Loki. He couldn’t help jumping, before glaring at the other who was quietly laughing at him.

“I must speak to you.” Loki muttered, gently taking Bruce to the doorway, not quite leading them away from the sight of the baby, because neither could stomach leaving her alone.

“I…..want to give you this.” Loki was hesitant, which did not happen that often if at all.
Bruce looked down at Loki’s hands to see him holding one of his daggers, and on the hilt of the dagger, there dangled precariously, a silver ring. Bruce frowned, but gingerly took the ring from the edge of the dagger.

“Why are you giving me this?” Bruce asked, looking back at Loki, who had the softest tint of red on his cheeks.

“I want to try and be a family with you and our daughter. I cannot promise anything, but that I’ll try and be good to you.” Loki stated, staring solemnly at Bruce, who was staring at him wide eyed, completely shocked.

“I…..” Bruce did not know what to say, instead he placed the ring on his finger and smiled.

“It is beautiful.”

Bruce instead of giving a verbal answer, he leaned in and press a soft kiss to Loki’s lips.

Nine months ago Bruce would never had thought that he would have sex with Loki, get pregnant, and have a strong, new family.
