The next morning I wake up in my bed, cocooned in a small blanket. The smell of cooking comes from my kitchen. I wasn't dreaming? When I get out into the kitchen I see Steve flipping pancakes, a plate of scrambled eggs rests to the side as well as nine cups with tea bags in them.
"Where did you get this?" I ask awed by the aray
"Oh" Steve says scratching the back of his neck "I-I might've given him a photo that I signed..."
"That works?" I ask sitting down next to Bucky who gives me a small nervous smile.
"Hey Bucky, would you mind taking a walk with me before Steve's finished?" I ask. My question seems to take him back but he nods anyway. Most of the snow has melted now but Bucky hands me his jacket anyway. I smile and take it grateful for the warmth. Soon we come across a pond, taking his metal hand in mine I lead him down and to the bank.
"So...so I'm your sister?" I ask even though I know the answer I want him to elaborate.
"Yes, you were so young when the you in my dimension died. You got sick and back then there was no cure. There was nothing to do to protect you." Bucky says sighing "I was your brother?" He asks finally looking me in the eyes. This time I'm the one to look away.
"Yeah, but here your name was Sebastian." I tell him.
"Sebastian." Bucky says almost trying it out.
"Look Bucky I want to get to know you...we both lost each other in a way and..."
"...and losing each other again would be dumb seeing as we just reunited."
I nod "and I know you aren't going to be exactly like Seb, but it won't hurt to try." I say shrugging
He smiles and pats my back "It's like a retry." Bucky tells me "Everything we wished we could've done or the experiences we wished we could have we can have now." I smile, but just as quickly my smile leaves. My promise from last night.
"You alright?" Bucky asks
"It's a- a future thing. I'm alright, don't worry about it." I say smiling and pulling him up after I stand. "I bet Steve's done with breakfast by now." He nods and we walk back, closer than before, but my promise feels like the weight of the world and in a way...it is.
"Becca?" Tony asks me as we all eat Steve's breakfast
"Yeah?"
"Is there really anything you could do to get us back?" he asks
"You missing Pepper?" I ask with a laugh earning slightly surprised looks.
"Sorry, I know it's weird that I know so much about you all." I say taking a timid bite of my eggs "there might be a way I can think of." I say
"How come Vision and Wanda didn't get beamed here also?" I ask
"Perhaps it had something to do with his mind stone?" Thor says. Even though I know Jarvis has the mind stone the word still makes me choke on my food. Oh the horrors that come with that.
"no, because then Wanda would've came with us." Tony says
"Is it just you guys or did you come in a ship?" I ask part of me totally geeking that I might get to see their ship, that all of this is real and the other part is mildly concerned for what I've gotten into.
"yes, we were in the jet." Clint says and I nod
"How fast can it go?" I ask earning some weird looks "just hear me out alright?"
"100 miles per hour in 15 seconds" I nod
"Tony hypothetically speaking could you get it to go faster using your arc reactor?"
He nods "Are you thinking about an interdimensional jump from gaining so much speed to where, at the right position, we could jump back into our dimension?"
"Yes." I say taking a sip of my tea.
"We're going to need some materials." Tony tells me
"Make me a list. I can tell you what I have left over from my dad, the rest I think I could scrounge up some money for." I tell him
"So... how long until we get to go home?" Clint asks, not following
"That's really up to Tony and how he works, but I'd say three days."
"Less" Tony says sketching something on his napkin.
"less then." I say standing and clearing the table. "Thank you for breakfast Steve, it's been a while since I had food that good."
"Sure doll, it's the least I could do for you helping us." He says making me laugh at being called doll.
"So who wants to take a road trip to your jet?" I ask heading toward the stairs
"Sure, we'll come!" Bruce says. I nod a walk to my room. Flipping the suit case top open I grab some warmer clothes. Child Services will be here soon. I frown looking down at the group. How is this going to go over. It's as though my thoughts were made directly into actions as I hear a car drive up, switch off and then the doorbell rings. I pull the rest of my clothes on hastily and practically fall down the stairs. I grab each Avenger by the hand and hide them somewhere. At first they protest but seem to catch on fast. I open the door once I figure they're all hidden well enough.
"Mrs. Hamptons!" I say putting on the biggest, fakest smile I can "How are you today?" I ask as she pushes past me rudley. I roll my eyes shutting the door.
"Rebecca Taylor, you've pulled quite some big chains" She says
"What?" I ask confused
"Grown ups Rebecca, grown ups." She says as though I were stupid "The ones who have a lot of power, are also the ones you've managed to piss off the most."
"Ohhh right! Well, when someone threatens to take you from your home that tends to happen."
"No one lives here Rebecca." Her statement makes me angry
"I go by Becca and I live here" I tell her as she runs her finger along a wooden surface. She tsks when something falls from inside the closet where Bucky and Tony are. Oh dear God.
"What was that" Mrs. Hamptons asks
"The sound of my life falling apart?"
She gives me a dirty look before heading toward the closet "no, no it came from here" She says reaching for the handle and slowly opening the door.
"What the fu-"

I don't like Mrs. Hamptons what about you guys?
