Come Find Me

Family fun time

MIA'S POV

I can't believe it, he has no right to talk to me like that I did nothing wrong, he was the one getting all cosy with Sharon last night. Even so what does he know, nothing happened with Tony he just assumed that I slept with him. I thought he was different I thought he was a man who thought more of women, but clearly I was wrong. Why Sharon? Why her? I mean yes she's pretty, yes she is kind and yes she has a great job and is successful. Who am I kidding she's amazing I can't compare to that I barely remember to buy milk and I don't even have a full time job or any job at all. Maybe this is my sign to move, six months was good but I'll just have to move on, I'll give Edith her shop back and I'll sell my apartment. Actually never mind I can't do that what am I thinking I'll give the apartment to Damien he can have it he needs a fresh start and so do I.

I start to plan my great escape in the short cab ride to my apartment glad that I didn't bump into anyone else as I grabbed my things and left the tower. Once I pay the taxi I begin climbing the stairs giving myself more time to think about how I will tell the girls, oh god how will I tell Pietro he will be heart broken. This doesn't matter right now first I need a shower and some good food. Lucky for me when I enter the apartment the smell of bacon and eggs hits me straight away, I take a moment to appreciate the smell before calling out to my brother.

'Hey Damien I'm back I hope you made enough for me, I am in desperate need to eat my feelings.' I call as I walk down the hallway into the kitchen to see my brother over the stove and more surprisingly to see Pietro sat on the counter. 'I wondered where you had gone to last night.' I say towards my slightly dishevelled looking friend.  

'Yeah sorry Sam passed out in my bed and well I have a spare key.' Pietro says jumping off the counter going to pour me some coffee.

'I shouldn't be surprised but why didn't you just stay in one of the guest rooms at the tower?' I ask while taking the mug of coffee he is offering giving him a quick thanks before taking the risk of burning my mouth taking a sip of coffee.

'That would be my fault, well technically your fault but someone disappeared at the end of the party and left her brother without a key to get in.' Damien adds giving me a knowing look I give him a quick sorry feeling bad for abandoning him at the party.

'So did you finally sleep with the super soldier?' Pietro ask but quickly moves out of reach so I can't hit him, instead I give him the death glare trying to hide the sadness inside.

'I do not want to talk about Steve right now.' I say taking a seat at the table where Pietro has started eating trying to push my feelings down not wanting to be swallowed by my feelings.

'Fine we won't ask but if you do want to talk call one of your girl friends because I don't have time for that.' Damien teases before giving me a plate of food which I happily accept.

'Thanks for you concern brother, but don't worry I'll make sure to tell you all the juicy details another time.' I say as I begin to eat, we spent most of breakfast listening to Damien tell us about his experience at the party and all the people he spoke too.

My brother is a man of many talents but unfortunately for him some of those talents aren't exactly legal. I have bailed my brother out of jail once or twice but only for fights that he claims he never started but I don't really believe him. Accept for that one time in New Mexico that was definitely my fault but what can I say I don't back down from a fight. But my brothers main area of expertise is hacking and I have no idea how he has managed to get away with it all these years. Lucky for me he is just an all round computer wiz he was the one to teach me everything I needed to know for my app development. Unfortunately for others if you cross my brother you bet he will take you down from the comfort of his computer screen. I don't think he has done anything really bad other than petty revenge plans, although I don't think he would tell me if he did do something bad. I am terrible at keeping secrets and he knows it. By the sounds of it last night at the party my brother managed to grab a few people's attentions for job offers.
