Agent Carter and I ( basic version)

Chapter 2: the diner

It was my first week and a meeting was held to talk about any new leads on Howard. We were called into the other glass room on the left of the office for the second time. as I walked in Chief Dooley sat at the head as well as Thompson, Sousa, Agent Carter and many other Agents.

stacked upon the table were multiple files and documents on Howard stark, they were all empty, but one, which had snippets and minor facts about Howard with the little crumbs of evidence to where he might be, and where his items are. After our little video yesterday, this was a follow up, to get as much information about him as we could

I stood up first since I had the most imformation, " I haven't spoken face to face with my brother since the war, but he does things for himself, and won't give any evidence to where he is, unless it benefits him, I have known him for my entire life, and he is a sneaky little bitch, but playable, with a lot of research we can find him"
I looked over to Peggy she had a slight smile on her face hiding her minuscule guilt, I knew she was up to something but had to bribe it out of her, despite her being one of the best agents out there.

After everyone had spoken I requested to speak with Peggy,
" Agent Carter, as I was leaving last night, I noticed you and Edwin driving away, I didn't see where, but I need to talk to you
About my brother"
I told her to meet at the diner at 5pm sharp to talk about something extremely important, she agreed half 4 and I set off to go home, through the big city.

At 4pm I got ready in my usual attire, a white blouse, ripped at the end tucked into a red skirt once again just below my knees, I did my makeup natural with blush cutting across my cheeks and red lipstick outlining my lips with a nude colour in the centre. I put on my red heels with little
Stumps at the bottom and set on for the diner.

The diner was gentle, music playing but the colours were pastel yet created a joyful atmosphere, lively, upbeat, despite all of the sweaty men guzzling coffee after a 'stressful day' at work. The colours of the diner were light shades of green and pink, a line cut through the paint, the top green and the bottom pink. The north and lights were green despite the overhead ones which were white. Pictures laced the walls and multiple windows and doors throughout.

I sat down as Angie approached me with her real blouse with a yellow collar and upturned sleeves, the pin badge with her name on was placed on the left of the piece of material dividing the shirt for buttons. She had a yellow belt on and underneath the belt the second half too the outfit, a teal green skirt. " hey doll, what are you doing here at this hour, shouldn't you be working, anyways, what would you like" she said on here sweet American accent.

" hey Angie, I'm actually meeting Peggy, the girl you mentioned, please can I have a caramel latte, thank you" I replied

" oooh, I see you making friends here English, I'll bring that straight out" she said as she walked away.

I collect my bearings and I notice Edwin lurking in the booth next to me, as soon as he saw he looking at him he hid with a menu covering his face, as soon as I turn away Agent Carter us walking through the doors. She saw me straight away and came to sit down, her hair down and curled up to above her shoulders, red sun glasses rested upon her head, red blouse and a blue skirt touching her knees. She looks at Edwin, trying to be inconspicuous and act as if he wasn't there.

Angie once again comes over and greets Peggy
" hello English" she says in the calm tone once again, " I guess we have too brits to tangle with today, what do you want"

"Hey Angie" Peg said, " not feeling anything today, thank you though"
Angie walks away

"Hey, Edwin, Why don't you come over here"
I say Peggy looking shocked that I noticed him

Edwin came over with a disappointed look on his face, Peggy still looked quite shocked but played it out well and smiled when Edwin came over. He sat down next to Peggy and looked quite nervous, twitching his ear, before I begin to speak he blurts out,
" before you say anything, do not call me Edwin, you know the only person who can call me that is Ana"

" ok fine, mr Jarvis, don't think I'm stupid, I know your working with Howard or why else would his Butler, and His best friend- ish, be working together, huh. If you tell me
Now I won't tell the SSR, depending what it is of course. I quite hurt you didn't tell me before to be honest, you know love things like this, and my brother, I'm ashamed *rolls eyes*"

"I-uh-Miss Stark- okay- uh" Jarvis stuttered as Peggy took the lead.
" okay, Yelena, Howard is in hiding as you know, but he hasn't done anything illegal, I take that back..., he hasn't done anything extremely illegal, he didn't sell his inventions, especially since not all of them are finished, and well extremely dangerous"

I stared at her with a blank face "as in"

"As in the entirety of New York, millions, could be at risk" she continues

Oh shit, Howard, what have you done, you little.... I stop in my thoughts as Peggy asks me if I was listening, which I wasn't, I didn't miss much though, I don't think.

" sorry peg, what were you saying"

"Glad to see your back, i was saying.. that I'm still loyal to the SSR, but, Howard is my best friend, and with Steve, I miss him, and Howard helped me through that, and he helped me move on, I owe him for that, even though he owes me a great deal more for this". " anyway, basically, we were, are, tracking down Howard's 'inventions', because they cause catastrophic events"

"So" with a slight smile on her face " are you in?"

My face is still blank, I have to choose between my brother and my work, my life, I'm 10 seconds, well just like Peg, maybe I can live a double life, pull of the double agent thing.

" yes" I stay without working out everything, yes is all I had to say, no detail, just yes. No means no, and yes means yes. I don't like my brother, at all, but I do love him, and no matter what he does, I'll still love him. Despite Howard, and that I love him, this is for Peggy, if we work together outside of the SSR, maybe, just maybe, she'll like me back, it's a stretch, especially considering how Steve went missing not even a year ago, but she's moving on, slowly, but she is, and by the time this mission is up, hopefully she will completely get rid of the memory of him, it will slowly fade.

Peggy stares at me shocked, with a little grin, but unexpected, her mouth open, slightly, head faced directly towards me, eyes locking with mine. " okay then"
She cocks her head to look at Jarvis, who, is just sat there, blank, probably contemplating life, a monthly occurrence working for Howard, a, to put it nicely, difficult soul. He comes back to reality and looks back at Peggy. " we shall get started then". He blurts out, as if he's just been sleeping for a hundred years.

Mr Jarvis stands up, walks backwards a few steps to the next booth and allows Agent Carter to stand up and exit. The car is parked outside and they head towards the door, I stay say there. Peggy turns her head, jolts it and I stand up, I didn't know I was meant to go with them. We leave the diner, waving goodbye to Angie whilst she is serving some gentlemen and i jumó in the back seat. Jarvis speeds off, I have no idea where we are going, but I just go along with it.
