INURE-Avengers Soulmate AU

Aurora POV.

"Look who arose from the dead." Everly says walking in beside Bruce, receiving a glare or two in response. She shrugs, "Too soon? Oops."

"Never too soon." I say giggling and start pushing myself up by my hands attempting to sit up even more yet wincing in pain and stopping before anyone tells me off for trying, especially after Nat already told me not to.

"H-how are you feeling?" Bruce says walking round to the IV drip to hook a new medication up. He starts changing a few machine settings and pressing various buttons and switches.

"Never better." I say sarcastically, but see a hint of hurt flash over his face at the dodging of the question.

I sigh, "Fine, I'm tired and in alot of pain. You happy?" I then huff and shuffle once more on the hospital bed.

"I just gave you a higher dose of pain medication, now that I know you are awake it is safer-" Banner begins but stops as his attention stays on a different machine, Everly sees this and takes over quickly in the explanation.
"You may experience drowsiness and if you move around too much or try to stand you may have dizzy spells."

I nod with a grateful smile as the pain seems to melt away in a matter of a few moments.

Wanda smiles brightly as I see her watching Everly and listening intently desperate for any information she can get.

"So can I go back to my room now." I say making puppy eyes at Everly.

"Tsk tsk." She tuts, "No missy you need to stay in here for at least a week but after that we can have you moved to one of your regular rooms, by then you will still need to keep movements to a minimum although you will then be aloud to go on short walks around the tower."

I huff once more and mumble a quiet, "okay."

"Good now get some rest." She says giving my shoulder a comforting pat.

"But I've been asleep for agesssssss." I complain and she chuckles lightly.

"You don't have to necessarily sleep right away but the medication will make you drowsy either way. So I reccomend sleeping it off at some point." She turns back to Bruce, "We will get going now but remember we are in the building and just a call away."

Bruce smiles, "I hope you feel better soon, if you need any pain meds just call." To which I nod and return the friendly smile.

"Thank you guys." I say as they walk out together holding hands, which is absolutely adorable and so sweet.

I notice Clint getting up from the sofa, he then walks over and brings a chair to sit right next to my bed.

"Y'know once you're better we could train with bows together..." he starts.

"You doubt my skills?" I tease but notice panic spread over his features.

"Clint, I'm kidding, I would love that. Plus I could always use a practice session or two whilst kicking your ass at archery."

He chuckles and raises an eyebrow, "Oh really...I'd like to see you try."

"You're on bird man." I challenge with a smirk.

He gasps in offense at the name, and pretends to ignore me by turning his head to look at the wall and crossing his arms over his chest which makes me smile, biting my lower lip to hold back a laugh at his childish teasing.

"Hey Rory would you like something to eat, Thor, Sam and I were going to go to the main kitchen to make an early breakfast." Tony says holding an empty metallic coffee mug with black writing on, it read 'Who needs sleep when you have coffee?'.
