Ghost

Chapter Seventy Five

     
                                       Nats POV

We're all sitting in the movie room still. I had made my way back here shortly after Spencer went after Carol.

It was really hard to watch her leave me, but I have to hold on to what she told me; she has feelings for me and not Carol. She did not kiss her back. She went to talk to get some closure. Which I know they both needed. But my mind still likes to go to worse case scenarios sometimes.

 It doesn't help that we're all just kind of sitting here in silence, waiting for Spencer and Carol to come back, apparently.

When I walked back in alone, I could tell they wanted to ask questions. But I'm sure they could tell by my expression, I wasn't going to give answers.

I did tell Yelena that we'd talk later. But she still looks worried. We all saw them walk out together. And, though they don't know about the kissing situation, I'm sure they're still wondering just as much as I am.

So we're waiting. Longer than I'd like. But as soon as she left it was longer than I'd like her to be gone. Especially with her.

That's when I hear the laughter, Spencer's mostly. Which doesn't do my worries any good.

"I mean, if that's seriously what you want. I just can't imagine it on you," Spencer says, still laughing.

 It couldn't have been THAT funny.

 "Oh it is. And you won't have to imagine it."

Okay, I hate the sound of whatever they're talking about. Can you tell me what happened? Cause I'm kind of freaking out here.

 "Oh, hey guys. You're all still in here?"

 "Uh, yeah. I guess we didn't know if we should leave or.. you know I don't really know what we were doing. It's been an interesting night," Clint says.

"I could not agree more," Spencer says, which makes Carol laugh. Why was that funny? I know Spencer is funny, she makes me laugh at her jokes and sarcasm all the time. But I don't enjoy Carol laughing with her.

 "Well, we were actually going to see if you still wanted to watch that movie? And since you're all here anyway.."

 "I know I'm down for a movie still," Peter says.

 "Yes! Okay, we've got one. Anyone else?"

 Slowly everyone agrees. Wasn't that hard to decide, we were all still kind of in the same spots and might as well watch a movie as planned.

 "Perfect! I will go grab snacks!" Spencer starts to dash away but stops mid run. "Wait, I kind of left after giving some pretty big news. Did anyone have any other questions or concerns?" This time she speaks with some hesitation.

She is in a good mood and is hoping to keep it. So the hesitation to keep talking about her past isn't exactly a welcome thought.

 I don't blame her.

 I just wish she wasn't happy with Carol right now.

 "I think there's some things we will have to discuss more about, and I'm sure we'll think of some questions as we go, but I think we should give it a rest for tonight and just enjoy a movie," Tony suggests.

 You can see Spencer visibly relax at his words. "Is everyone okay with that?" She asks, still wanting to make sure.

 Everyone agrees. I think we're all good for tonight and sleeping on it wouldn't hurt. A movie would be a great way to end the night.
