Faith Rose Romanoff

Chapter 3 - Faith's Day in the life

Faith understood the rules, and consequences for breaking them. She then sat down with everyone to eat breakfast, afterwards went upstairs to brush her teeth. She leaned her crutches against the wall using the counter for support, she brushes her teeth. After brushing her teeth, she went into her room, got out her clothes, and got dressed, Downstairs she saw someone who she hadn't met yet, she went over to Nat, and introduced herself. "Hello I'm Faith Romanoff," The guest smiled, "hello faith, I'm Nick Fury," "but you call him MR. Fury," Nat said while looking at Faith. "Yes momy," Faith responded, then she saw Peter and she glared at him. "Faith we don't glare at people," Nat said, Faith ignored her, "hey did you hear me," still no responce. Nat swatted her, and Faith looked at her, "we do not glare at people," she repeated, Faith started crying, and Nat took the crutches away, leaned them agsainst the wall, and picked her up. After things calmed down, Nat reminded Faith of the rules, and consequences, then told Faith why glaring is wrong. "Faith when we glare at people, it makes them think we don't like them. I know Peter teases you, but he's just playing around." Faith was listening the whole time, "okay mommy, I'll stop glaring at people." Nat hugged her, then gave her back her crutches, and then Faith went to see Wanda. while she was away, Nat spoke to Steve, and Bruce about Faith having a father figure. "I agree she needs one," Steve said, Bruce added, "She seemed to take a liking to both of us." "I know," Nat said, "that's why I'm talking to both of you." Then Faith came back, and Nat told her what was going to happen, and asked her if she wanted anyone in particcular. "I want Bruce as my daddy, then when I get hurt or when I'm sick, he can take care of me." Everyone thought it was a good idea, and it was settled. Later that afternoon, after lunch, Faith was sitting with the avengers when Clint asked, "who wants to play truth or dare?" Faith looked at Nat, "mommy what's truth or dare?" Nat explained the rules to her, and she said she wanted to play. Steve started the game, "Nat truth or dare," Nat said, "Truth," she watched as Faith moved to Bruce's lap. Then Steve asked her, "tell us why you wanted to adopt a kid," Nat paused, "the reason is because I've always dreamed of being a mom. But in the Red room, where I'm from, when you graduate, they sterilize you." Then Clint asked, "Bruce, truth or dare," Bruce picked dare, and Steve dared him to  reveal his crush, "My crush is this one right here," he answered while readjusting Faith on his lap. Then he asked, "Faith truth or dare," "truth," "Nat asked, "Were you in the orphanage all your life?" "What does that mean," Faith asked, Bruce reworded, "Did you grow up in the orphanage or were you put in there?" "Well I had a family until I was 2 years old, Then my mommy got sick, and my daddy died, so mommy put me in the orphanage." Everyone was quiet, this was news to everyone, Faith sensed something was wrong. She looked at Bruce trying not to cry, "did I do something wrong?" "No sweetheart" Bruce responded, as tears started flowing from Faith's eyes, "shshshshshshshsh," Bruce soothed her, Faith just cradled into Bruce's shoulder and cried loudly. Bruce stood up, and walked around with her, and soon she fell asleep, he gave her to Nat who snuggled Faith into her chest, and they quietly played the game. When Faith woke up, Wanda was cooking dinner, and Nat was still sitting in the chair with Faith.
