Fire starter (Ana X Bucky)

13

In the morning we made a conference meeting with everyone. They were all confused as to why Steve and I were calling a meeting this early.

"This better be good Rogers" Nat walked in looking like death itself.

"Okay, she scares me" I whisper to Steve

"Yea, never talk to Nat before coffee" He whispers back

"I've never seen her before coffee" I look over to her who is now giving us both death stares.

"Alright, we have a situation." Steve starts. Everyone looks like they are taking him seriously..he had to start with the Captain voice Jesus..."Ana and I have made a bet, and a game, all Avengers are required."

"Wait are you going to tell them the bet? because...well..James.." I get nervous. I didn't want James to find out like this.

"I told him last night so he knows, we're good" He turns his attention back to the group. "It's a flag snatching game. We will split into two teams, mine, and Ana's" I glare at him when he says my name with a bit of disgust

"What's the bet, and what do the winners get?" Sam asked sipping his coffee. Nat turns to him grabbing his coffee then starting to drink it.

"Hey you...." She glares at him making him stay quiet "Nothing, your welcome..I hope you like it"

"Well the bet is this. If my team wins, she has to go on a date with me. Her team wins, she can take her time deciding if she wants to or not."

"So we are all going on Steve team right?" Sam looks around

"I am" James points out looking at me. I felt like he was angry but I couldn't say anything. Out of everyone I thought he would be fighting this. Didn't he kiss me last night? I guess he doesn't actually want me.

"No" Clint states getting everyone's attention. "No offense Cap, but my money has always been on someone else for her, I'll be on her team." I look over at Clint surprised, what was he talking about? he never mentioned this before..

"I'm going to hate saying this...but I'm with Clint" Tony added "For the same reasons"

"Um..." I look at Steve who looks like he's going to jump over the table to Tony. "Maybe we should do random drawings, so the teams are even?" I suggest hoping it'll stop any hostility. "Vision, you need to be referee, there are rules and you break all of them by just existing."

"What are these stupid rules?" Nat sounded annoyed.

"No powers, no use of FRIDAY, no cameras. Phones, ear pieces, and hacking are allowed. One team will protect the flag and the flag carrier, the other team will try to get the flag. One hour time limit. If the offensive team doesn't get the flag to Vision by the end of the hour the defensive team wins." Everyone nodded. "The game will start after lunch, all floors from the conference floor to Tony's floor are available, nothing else." 

"How do we know what teams we are in?" Wanda looks around excited.

"Vision will do a random generator. You will get the message at some point today before the game with one of our names. That will be your assigned team. If you don't mind Vision?" I wait for his response.

"It sounds...like fun" I smile at him even he looked excited for this.

"Okay, go ahead and do whatever you need to do before 1pm. We will meet at the living room and start it off there" Steve finishes walking out.

I hear a phone ping before I leave the room. Game is on.

During morning training with Natasha she slams me to the floor, looks around then leans down to whisper. "Vision sent me your name. Although I think you and Steve should be together, I respect you needing time" I smile at her grabbing her hand to stand up
