~Y/N's POV~

When we walked back to the bar Steve, Wanda, Nat, and Peter were waiting for us outside. 

"Dammit, Y/N. Why didn't you call us to help?" Nat yelled. I shook my head and smirked. 

"Because we didn't need it." I laughed as she got more mad but I ignored it as we got into the car. I drove while Steve rode in the Nissan with Bucky and Peter. While Wanda, Nat, and I rode in the BMW. 

"You need to take precautions, Y/N." She finished her rant after being in the car for about ten minutes after getting to the hotel. 

"Okay. You done?" I asked and she nodded. "I was doing what was right and James was there. So I was fine." She groaned getting out of the car, slamming the door.  I got out of the car. "What is with you?" 

"You're not getting my point. We are a team, Y/N. We do things together." She explained. 

"I had a person from the team with me." I said and Wanda nodded. 

"She has a point." She agreed. Nat nodded, too. 

"I guess so." She said. 

"Sometimes you won't be in the immediate area, Nat. But I still need to do what I need to do." I said. She nodded.

"I know. I just worry." I pulled her in for a hug. "And you hate Barnes but you trust him."

"Um, when did I say I trusted him?" I turned to Wanda. "I don't remember saying that." I turned back to her. "I said he was there."

"And you seemed perfectly fine running in the building without watching your back." He said. 

"How the hell do you enter the conversation at the wrong time, every single time." I said and dragged out the words while walking toward the glass automatic doors. 

"Because you say them at the wrong time, every single time." He mocked. I stopped and turned around.

"Oh, you wanna go." I provoked. I walked toward him, Nat tried to grab me but I dodged her. I walked faster to get momentum. I jumped but I stopped mid air. Dammit Wanda.

"Stop trying to kill each other." She said.

"I'm not trying to kill her." He said and I tried to swing but I missed. I saw him smirk.

"Let me down, Wanda." I yelled. She shook her head. 

"Not until you calm down." I went relaxed so she let me go. Nat grabbed my arm and led me to the hotel lobby with Wanda and Steve between Bucky and I. God I wanted to just rip his face off.

"Don't you dare." I heard Wanda whisper. I knew she was right. I did need to calm down. It's just everything he says makes everything worse. 

When we got to the elevator I stood near the door and when the doors opened I felt two hands on my back pushing me out. We all gathered in Wanda, Peter, and my room because it was the biggest. 

"So what is this meeting for?" Steve asked, looking between Bucky and I.

"So the people at the shop today were Sons of Samoa." I said. "According to Mila they have never been caught before. So theory is-," I started.

"That they got caught on purpose." Steve finished. I nodded. My phone buzzed in my back pocket. 

Mila
Hey you wanna be Herrera and Y/L/N, again?

Why?

Because our Department wants me to go question
the family 
member of the suspects. And I felt this
was the chance bring back the crime fighting duo.

Okay, fine. Where?

Corner of 'Laneway' and 'E 6th St.'

Be there in 15.

"Alright, I got to go." I said to the team.

"Where?" Peter asked. I looked up before getting the keys.

"Long Beach." I answered. 

"I can come with you." Nat said. 

"Na. I'm good. Besides I'm just questioning people of interest, with Mila. So I'll be fine. I promise." I said. She nodded and I glanced at Bucky on the way out. He looked uncomfortable. I get it me, too. I walked out of the hotel and grabbed a snack from the front desk. When I got there I saw Mila's car waiting there. I pulled off the street behind her. 

"Hey." She said as I hopped out of the car. 

"Hey." I said back.

"Alright, Yolanda King is who we're talking to. She still has yet to know her son's in jail." I nodded understanding. We walked up to the house. Mila knocked and a woman answered. 

"Yolanda King?" The woman nodded and stepped out closing the door behind her. "LAPD." Mila said showing her badge. "I was wondering if we could ask you some questions regarding, Kaleb King?" Yolanda shook off the question and looked at me. 

"I heard a rumor the Avengers were in town." She said.

"Excuse me?" I said. 

"Mrs. King, could we come in?" Mila asked. The woman shook her head. 

"My youngest is sleeping, but we could talk out here." Motioning to a table and four chairs on a porch. "What did Kaleb do this time?" She asked.

"He's done this before?" Mila asked. 

"Yeah, a few DUIs and underage possession of marijuana." She said. "Nothing too bad though." 

"You're son was arrested for attempted robbery today at J&L Jewelers today." Mila explained. I looked at the woman who didn't looked surprised. 

"I'm honestly not surprised. He's been doing messed up things lately." She said.

"Care to elaborate?" Mila asked. I shook my head at Mila.

"No, I'm not gonna put my son in any more trouble than he's already in."

"That's okay. But have you heard Kaleb talk about the 'Sons of Samoa?'" I asked. She shook her head. "Thank you." I motioned Mila to leave with me. She did, I waved to Yolanda and she waved back. "If you thought she might've known something, either she won't tell you or she really doesn't know."

"I saw. Her body language was consistent. There's nothing off about her." Mila said disappointed. I nodded and put my arm around her shoulder. 

"I know it sucks. But Rome wasn't built in one day." I smiled. "So go home to your children and make them dinner. Get some rest and call me in the morning." She nodded as she got into the car. I drove back to the hotel. When I went upstairs I felt a need so I went and knocked on Bucky's door. He answered. 

"What do you want?" He asked. I didn't say anything, I just pushed him in and kissed him. He pinned me against the wall.
