Everyone decided to sleep over. We have lots of spare rooms so they took one each but Brooke shared with me.

"Can I do something?" I look at her.

"Sure." She smiles.

I pick her up and pull her on my lap so she's straddling me. I grab her face and start to kiss her. At first she was startled, but then she eased into the kiss.

The door opens and Brooke quickly moves off.

"Oh my God-" Steve's eyes widened.

"I KNEW IT!" Wanda grins.

"So are you guys official now or what?" Nat smirks.

"What do you guys want? Ever heard of knocking?!" I growl, walking to the door.

"We only came to say goodnight, Doll." Bucky chuckles.

"Seems like you guys are having fun." Loki groans.

"Damn, hickeys! Already!" Nat looks at Brookes neck but she hides under the covers in embarrassment.

"Get out!" I snap.

"Goodnight to you too!" Thor rolls his eyes.

I scoff and slam the door shut, laying back next to Brooke. She rests her head in my neck.

"That's so embarrassing!" She gasps.

"It's okay Princess!" I smile. "Come on, let's go to sleep." I hug her, pulling her close to me.

. . .

During the night I heard someone scream. I quickly get up and notice that Brooke isn't besides me. I get out of my room and everyone was getting out themselves, looking around in confusion.

I rush downstairs and Brooke was stood in the corner in fear.

"Hey! You're okay.." I hug her.

She hugs me back, crying into my neck.

"What the hell happened?" Steve furrows his eyebrows.

Nat turns the light on and there was a man stood in the middle of the living room, his mouth was cut into a smile and he had blood all over him and the knife he was holding too.

"Oh my God!" Wanda gasps.

"It's okay you're safe, Princess." I whisper in her ear, rubbing her back to comfort her.

She grabs on to my shirt tighter and her cries slowly fade.

"Get out!" Thor grabs his hammer tightly.

He runs for Brooke but I turn around...and he stabs me in the shoulder.

I groan in pain and Thor hits him with the hammer. Bucky pulls the knife out of my shoulder and I instantly felt it close up.

"Are you okay?" She whimpers, looking up at me.

"I'm fine, I'm fine.." I smile.

Loki and Thor take the man downstairs to the cells and I slowly start to let Brooke go.

"Are you okay?" Nat frowns.

She nods, her head buried in my neck still.

"Take her upstairs." Steve sighs, running his hand through her hair.

I pick her up and go upstairs. I place her in the bed and she doesn't let go of me.

"I'm here, princess- I need to use that bathroom." I chuckle slightly.

She frowns, letting go of me a little.

"I'll be right back." I kiss her forehead and go to the bathroom.
