My Forbidden Soldier

III

Knock Knock

You hurriedly woke up from your slumber. You rose out of bed lazily and called for the AI to open the door.

"Uh, Friday... Open the doo-," you asked

Nevermind then...

As soon as you reached for the handle to your bedroom you were greeted by Widow. She looked like she had been up for a while.

"Rise and shine princess, you have a big day today," she called out.

You looked at her, surprised. You had assumed that since you were sent to the compound, you would just be kept in your room.

"Awe, don't give me that face." she smiled. "You have a couple of meetings lined up. We have some more news to share with you. Oh, here are your clothes for the day," She tossed you a shirt and pair of jeans.

"Thanks."

You turned around and started getting ready for the day. You went to the bathroom and cleaned up. You combed out your wet hair and braided it into a loose, but fashionable ponytail. You slipped the clothes on that Widow had given you earlier. You opened up the door and walked to the living area, where she was sitting on the couch.

She turned around and gave you a nod. She got up off the couch and led you to the door. You walked out of your room and straight to the elevator behind Widow. She pressed the button and waited till the door opened. Once you were in the elevator she hit a button and you both sat there. Soon, Widow spoke up.

"I hope you're hungry because we are going to eat first. After that, I'll give you a small tour of the complex, just so you aren't wandering around trying to find places. Oh, and I can't forget. You have your first meeting today." she said.

Before you could respond, the elevator opened up revealing many people eating at a large table. Widow waved and tried to introduce you but you caved and slid behind her before she could.

You both walked out of the elevator. Widow urged you to follow her to where the food was. She handed you a plate and cup and told you to fix something other than a glass of water. Just before you started serving yourself you felt someone walk up behind you.

"Good Morning Y/N,"

It was Adrian. Thank God.

24 hours ago you wouldn't have been thinking the same, but after seeing a bunch of superheroes eating breakfast at the table behind you, you couldn't feel more relieved. You turned around and flashed him a quick grin before continuing to fix your food.

Widow caught sight of the interaction and cleared her throat, gaining both yours and Adrian's attention.

"I told you Y/N, you have a busy day today. We need to eat and hurry on. Adrian, what time will you be leaving today?" Widow asked.

"I'm supposed to leave after eating. I just wanted to she Y/N first." he sighed.

The widow looked back at the both of you and nudged you to follow her to a seat. You looked back at Adrian and rolled your eyes, signaling your mood towards Widow. You quickly followed her to the table and immediately started eating. Neither you and Widow talked much. Most people that were there a few minutes ago when you first arrived had cleaned up and left.

Are people in a constant rush here?

You and Widow had finished eating. Now it was time for the tour. Honestly, you didn't want to be here. You didn't even want to be on this base at all! You had been taken against your will and been forced into a compound which The Avengers lived in.
