REQUESTS ARE OPEN!!! REQUESTS ARE OPEN!!! REQUESTS ARE OPEN!!!

Next: Stephen Strange

Later: Clint Barton

You were currently trying to make lunch for everybody. Making lunch with 10 different requests was not exactly an easy task. Somebody couldn't tolerate spicy while others couldn't live without it.  I mean really? Spice in pasta? Clint- what? 

"Hey, Y/n.'

You looked up to see Peter walking towards you. 

"Hi, Peter." You smiled and reached over to ruffle his hair. He quickly got out of your touch and whined. 

"Stopppp," he childishly requested. You laughed and nodded, taking your hand away as he tried to fix it. You smiled as he ran his fingers through his hair. 

"So, what brings you here, other than the fact that you need snacks which seems to be the only reason you ever step out of your room," You snidely commented. 

"Hey! That's not the only reason I step out of my room.....I-I like to help in the kitchen too!" Peter defended. 

"Oh really, Mr Parker? Then come on, get started on making the sauce," you challenged as you chopped up some vegetables. 

"See, I would but that's not what I was here for." You smiled in victory. "I was here because I was concerned about Dr Banner- or Bruce. I tried to ask him for help with my homework but I'm pretty sure he hasn't stepped out of his lab for the past 3 days." 

Your smile dropped. This seems to be a recurring pattern with him. Whenever he wants to distract himself or not think about something, he would practically camp out in his lab. And the team would come to you because you were the only person who could really comfort him. 

"Alright, Peter. Just chop up this and get started on making the sauce, and I'll be back!" You said as you washed your hands so that you can head towards the lab. 

"But, Y/n, I got- I got homework!" 

"I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that," you said over your shoulder as you walked out of the kitchen. 

You ran towards the elevator and pressed your desired button. As you reached the lab, you could hear some metal clanking. As you turned your last corner, you saw Tony tinkering with something near the far end and Bruce hurriedly typing something on the computer. As you entered the lab. you nodded towards Tony and gave him a look that screamed "please get out of here." 

Soon he had left and as he was leaving, Bruce looked up and asked, "Where are you going?"

Tony replied, "Pep's waiting for me. Can't keep a lady waiting," and left, but not without tapping your back in sympathy and whispering, "This one is bad." As Bruce saw you, he dramatically sighed and said, "If you are here to get me out of the lab, save your precious time and don't."

You practically ignored that comment and came sat opposite him while he was still fixated on the computer screen. "You know, I think I'm putting my precious time to good use by spending it with you."

He shyly smiled. "But you're not exactly here to spend quality time here, are you?" You nodded. "See, you're here to get me out of the lab and ask me if I'm fine."

"Exactly, so talk to me, Bruce. What's up?" you asked, leaning back in the chair and crossing your arms. 

"Nothing is up, Y/n. Can't a guy just work in his lab without ten people assuming he's depressed?" He said, shaking his head. 

"Technically, he can but not when ha has locked himself up in the lab for the past 3 days. Tell me Bruce, when was the last time you actually slept? Hmm?" You questioned. 

"Sometimes projects just need attention, alright?" He said, trying to get you out of the lab. 

"Yes they do, but you need attention too!" You said, coming around the table and standing next to him, while he was still looking at his screen. 

"Not really, I'm not worthy of your attention."

"That's my decision, you know," you muttered. 

"it's really not when it comes to a monster like me!" He exclaimed, finally facing you. His little outburst kind of scared you. You could see green seeping up his neck. 

"Bruce, you need to calm down. Look at me." When he didn't obey, you took his face in your hands, forcing him to look at you. "Just pay attention to me. I don't think you're a monster. In fact, nobody here thinks you are one. Tell me, why would Tony call you "the strongest avenger" if you weren't worthy of it? That's because you are, and me, well I'm me and I totally think you deserve all of us!" 

He seemed to calm down as the green was no longer visible and his frowns had disappeared as well. He quickly turned away from you and whispered, "No, Y/n. I'm really not. Don't you see? I'm destined to be alone. I was alone after Ultron, I was alone before New York and right now, even after being surrounded, it's still me being alone, alright? So just leave me be." 

"I can't leave you be, Bruce-" but he cut you off.

"Why do you help me, anyway? Huh? I never even asked for it."

"Because....because I love you," you confessed. He wildy turned to face you.

"You do?" he asked, unsure.

"Yes, I do. Of course, I do!  What do you think, Banner?" you teased, suddenly feeling a boost of confidence from nowhere. So confident that you even reached out and warped your arms around his neck, giving him a hug. But somewhere, you were afraid that he wouldn't return the feelings but were pleasantly surprised when you felt arms wrap around your waist. 

"Good, because you have no idea how long I've waited to hear that. Because the truth is, I love you too!" he said, burying his face in the crook of your neck. You suddenly felt warmth all over, starting near your heart. You couldn't believe he actually did return your feelings.

"Still feeling alone, Dr?" you asked, tightening your grip around him. 

"Not exactly..." he laughed against you.
