Fighting for You 🔞

Fifty-Four

Lexi looked around at each of them, making sure they had enough on their plates... 'First off, just because I'm not here, doesn't mean you slack off when it comes to personal care. Your health is important and I expect every one of you, to be following your schedules I have made for you..'

She noted Tony wasn't looking at her and she knew he was feeling guilt... 'Second, yes I have been away, and yes I am extremely pissed off that you know. It was my business, not yours. If I wanted you to know, I would've told you myself. I have lost a second child recently, I lost Hannah. I am allowed to grieve, and I am doing it my way..'

She sat back... 'Being here, listening to your whispers and seeing your pity is too much. I needed time away, and I still do, but dont think that I won't ever come back..'.. She sighed deeply... 'I have the meeting tonight, and if you would like to attend, you may. But I will warn you all now, it will be a lot for you to deal with..'

She nodded at her two men... 'These two only caught a glimpse of the club, and that was at the end of party. This one tonight, will be in full swing, with the councils in attendance..'... She held out her hand, and a bottle of water flew over... 'Its full of lust, love and creatures you've never seen before. They won't harm you, but they will be looking at you. It's been a while since that many humans were at the club..'

Bucky pushed his empty plate away, and looked at her... 'I'm going, I want to be there with you Lex, even if you don't need me there..'

She smiled at him, and took his hand in hers again... 'I will always need you, and captain. Even though I'm a little pissed at him talking about me behind my back..'.. She rolls her eyes at Rogers.

'I want to go..'.. Romanoffs hand shot up, and Lexi chuckled.

'Oh I might put you on a leash to keep you in line..'.. Lexi grinned at her.

'Wouldn't be the first time you did..'.. Nat shrugged, taking a sip of her water, knowing the others were looking at her.

'I'm in. Been a while since I've been to a club, but I'm guessing this is really different...'... Barton says, sitting back.

'It is. Mostly in the way of, it's a club for the factions, and only a select few of humans have ever been there. It's a safe haven, a place where they can be in their true forms, without having to hide or feel uncomfortable. So that means, no staring at them, and don't be afraid. They won't hurt you..'.. Lexi too a long drink on her water.

'Honestly, I think it's Stark, Potts, Banner, Hogan and Rhodes who won't feel comfortable there, no offence but I can already sense and smell your hesitation..'.. Lexi looked at each of them, giving them a reassuring smile... 'And that's ok, I don't expect any one to go, but if you'd rather just take some time getting used to the fact there's others like me out there first, then thats good. But just know, the stories you've heard, and the myths, whatever are nothing like the actual creatures...'
