'You may have a bunch of different mates, you may be getting bullied at your school. You are still family. Even if you are not blood-related to us, but you are family.....you are our family. No matter what. We are here for you if you are here for us...
Seeing Tony's face is hilarious. I smiled and looked down at the floor. "It's just, you two are so close to each other," he said. I looked up at him. "We're so close because we knew each other since the day we were very young kids," I said. He nodded his head. "That makes sense," Tony said.
"Wait, are you jealous that I'm so close Skylar?" Zac asked. I looked over at Zac before looking at Tony. He didn't answer. "Wait, you are...aren't you," I said. He nodded his head before looking away from me. Probably embarrassed that he was.
I looked at Zac before looking back at him. "It's cute and amazing," I said making Tony look at me. "Really?" he asked. I nodded my head. "Tells me that you care," I added before taking a deep breath. He gave me a big smile.

I couldn't help it. I smiled back at him. Not one of my cheesy smiles or one of my fake ones. But a real....genuine smile. After a little while, I looked away from Tony. "Why don't you two get comfortable, it's going to be a while until we get back to New York," Hawkeye said from the pilot's seat. I nodded my head as I put my head on Zac's shoulder.
Zac put his head on top of him before I slowly closed my eyes. Falling into a deep, much-needed sleep. I guess it helps that some of my mates are in the same room as me.
*Tony's view*
I was kind of worried that our mate was with someone else. For how close she was to Zac Williams. But now...I'm completely fine. Knowing that he is like a brother to my mate. It would kind of make sense, but since they grew up with each other....they still could've been together.
I looked at Bruce before I looked over at our mate. A smile spread across my face as I saw that she was fast asleep with her head on Zac's shoulder and Zac's head on top of her's.
"Sir, the scans show that there is nothing else wrong with your mate or Mr. Williams. They do not have any injuries that are not shown." Friday quietly answered, almost as if she knew that my mate and Zac were asleep. "Thanks for letting us know Friday. Let everyone back at the tower know that we are on our way there." Bruce said, making sure he didn't wake up our sleeping mate.
*Time skip to when they get to New York*
*Sky's View*
"Skylar, Zac... we're back in New York." Someone said. I slowly opened my eyes to see Hawkeye or Clint standing in front of me. I rubbed my eyes as I sat up. I looked at Zac. He smiled at me before he got up from the seat. I took a breath before I stood up. "Follow me, Skylar. I'll bring you inside and to my bathroom. So you would be able to wash up and I'll give you some of my clothes to borrow." Black Widow said.
I gave her a smile before I followed her out of the jet. Leaving my mates and Zac behind. I couldn't help but look at all of the buildings that you can see from the helipad. "Good view isn't it." Black Widow said once she saw that I wasn't looking at her.
I looked over at her, then back at the view. "Yeah, it is," I answered. She smiled at me. We walked into the tower and to the elevator.
"Just to let you know. You can call me Nat or Natasha," she said. I smiled at her as the elevator doors closed. I held the blanket tight around my body after I realized I was just in my bra and pants. Nat chuckled a little as the doors opened. "Even though I just met you, you are adorable. Just the way you act." Nat said.
I smiled as I followed her to down the hall. "When will I be able to go home?" I asked her. "Maybe after your shower and after you get changed into something comfortable. Even though, I don't think you should change." Nat said. I blushed and looked down at the ground.
She laughed and turned into a room, making me stop and follow her inside. I looked around the room as she pulled out some clothes for me to wear. I heard a drawer close making me look back at her. She smiled and walked over to me. "Here you go. The bathroom is over there, you can use anything that you need that is inside," she said as she pointed at a door.
I smiled at her before I walked into the bathroom. I locked the door behind me since I didn't want her or anyone else walking in on me. Well, that and it's a habit that I had to learn over the years of living with mostly boys. "I'll be right out here if you need anything. Oh, and you can put your dirty clothes in the hamper. Oh, and the blanket. I'll have them all washed for you." Nat said as I took the blanket off of my body.
I looked around the bathroom before I saw the hamper. I put the blanket into the hamper before stripping out of my clothes. I climbed into the shower. I pulled the curtain closed before turning the water on. I shivered when my feet were touched with cold water.
"Shit, Skylar. I'll be right back." Nat said from the other side of the door. "But you'll come back right," I said as the water warmed up. "Yeah, I'll be right back." She said before there was no sound. I turned the shower part on and moved out of the way so I wouldn't be hit with a blast of cold water.
