She was in the car at the bottom of her driveway, her hands were shaking her eyes her glazed. Lennox didn't want to face her family, she didn't want to be reprimanded or yelled at or said she was a horrible friend even though she felt like she was.Lennox drove her car up the driveway, Wanda and Sam's car was still at the house. She took her key and placed it in her hand, she wasn't sure if she should knock or walk right in, it was her house but she knew people were going to be mad at her decisions.
She made the decision to walk in the door, as soon as she walked in the tension was there. It was quiet, she made her way to the living room where Steve, Wanda, and Natasha were on the couch watching a movie. Sam wasn't anywhere to be seen, Natasha stared straight ahead trying to avoid Steve's harsh gaze at his wife.
"Where were you?" Steve inquired, Wanda tried to get up to leave but Natasha grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"I was with Fury." Lennox didn't break eye contact with him.
"K."
"Steve, really? K. that's all you have to say." Lennox was expecting more grilling on her.
"Yeah, that's all. No wait you can take the bed tonight i'll take the couch." Steve looked back at the television after talking.
"Okay, then. Nat, Wanda i'm sorry." Lennox said to her two best friends, "We'll talk later, Steve?"
"Whatever you want, Lenna." Steve replied blankly. Lennox nodded her head and took her suitcase upstairs. She expected him to be harsh but she has never seen Steve this angry at her, last time he got this angry it was at Tony.
She laid on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Before she decided to put on a sweatshirt and head outside. She snuck past the group of people and opened the back door where walked towards the top of the hill. Lennox took a seat and looked up at the stars until she heard the door creak open and a blonde haired female sat next to her.
"You should have told me you were leaving, i could've went with you." Natasha looked up at the stars along with Lennox.
"How'd you know i was out here?"
Nat sighed and looked over at Lennox, "I know that the stars help you forget about all of the horrible shit in the world."
"Yeah, i think we have a lot of shit to go around." Lennox chuckled under her breathe.
"I don't blame you for running from your problems, i love Steve but he can be a bit suffocating. It's nice having him but what happens when he isn't there to make me feel like i'm not alone, i didn't get the chance to run." Natasha grabbed onto Lennox's hand and laid her head on Lennox's shoulder.
"Just when you want to run, don't go see Fury he just sends you back." Lennox joked with Natasha.
"Steve will come around, he's grieving too. When we grieve we tend to push away, we have to break the habit." Nat kissed the top of Lennox's head before heading back inside.
