After the break up with his former lover Betty Ross and before joining the Avengers. Bruce Banner, who still in the run from The US Army goes back to Culver University, the place where he turn into the Hulk for first time. While searching for the da...
It's was afternoon and classes was over, I went undercover as pizza delivery boy to deliver some pizza. I was a bit struggling to ride a bicycle but I managed to get inside the building where the labs is. I was walking close to the security desk, then I stop and talk to the security guard to let me go up to deliver the pizza.
"Hey pal. I got a delivery on five." I asked him.
"I don't think there's anybody up there." The security guard says.
"Oh, man. I'm gonna catch hell if I don't collect. You got to let me try. I'll tell you want. I got an extra medium. Take it on the house." I said to him.
He opened the box as I hand him it, smirks at me and allows me to go up.
"You are the man." I said to him giving him a hand shake.
"God bless you, brother." The security guard says.
As I go upstairs heading to the 5th floor. I walk down on the hallway, I look at my right to see the room where I first into the other guy and I start to get flashbacks from that day.

Then the flashbacks ended, I look out at the window to see Elizabeth doing some paperwork. She look so different now since the last time I saw her. I knock the door and heard her say it's open. I let myself in the room as I hand her the pizza.
"Here's your pizza, ma'ma" I said to Elizabeth not making eyes contact.
"Thank you so much and here your tip" She says in her British accent.
Then she got a good look at my face underneath my hat.
"Bruce?" She says.
I sigh and take off my hat revealing myself to her.
"Hey Elizabeth" I said to her.
She immediately gives me a hugged.
"I thought you were dead. Wait, does Betty know that you're here?" She asks.
"No, she doesn't know. It's better for her not to know that I'm here." I replied to her.
She nodded but also happy to me again.
"I have to go now." I said to her.
She grabs my hand.
"Do you want to catch up on life?" She says.
"Sure. For old times sake." I said to her.
We spent like 2 hours talking about each other's life but mostly about me after the incident. I asked the important question.
"Elizabeth, do you know where the data Because when I got on the computer, it's say that it was gone." I asked her.
"After the incident, Ross had wipe every computers out but Betty managed to get the data on a hard drive and she gave it to me to keep safe." She says.
I was relieved by what she says.
"So where is it?" I asked her again.
"It's in my house. You can come with me." She says.
I was thinking about it just to be on the safe side but eventually I decided to go with her. But first, I need to go back to Stan to get my stuff. As we walked out together, I put on my hat just to be cover to make sure that there was no any military or police anywhere. We got into her car and drive to Stanley's pizza parlor. As we arrived at the pizza parlor, I asked went to the back entrance and told Stan that I'm leaving with Elizabeth and that I'm staying with her for the night after that I went up stairs to get my bag. I head back down to the kitchen to see Stan not being here. As I go out to the dining room to see Betty and her new boyfriend. I immediately left the parlor and headed to Elizabeth's car.
"You got everythin—- What wrong?" Elizabeth asked me.
"Just go now." I said to her.
As we drive away from the pizza parlor. While driving, Elizabeth asked me what happened.
"What happened, Bruce?" She asked.
"Betty saw me" I said.
"Oh" She says.
We finally made it to her's house and once we entered her garage. She closed the garage door to make sure the no one is following us. We walked to the living room, she tells me to sit down on the couch as she gets the data. I looked around her living room and seeing many of pictures of her with me, Betty & her family. Then I saw her degrees and all this happened when I was away for 5 years.
"I see you looking at my degrees." She says.
"I'm proud of you." I said.
She smiles and walks closer to me to hand me the data.
"Here the data, I hoped tell us something someday." She says to me.
"Thank you" I said to her.
Then we heard a knock on Elizabeth's door, she tells me to hide in the bathroom. As I grab my stuff and head to the bathroom to hide. Then I heard Betty's voice.
Elizabeth's POV
Once Bruce was hidden, I opened the door to see Betty standing out in my porch and she asked me if she can come in and talk. I let her in and grab some coffee for her.
"Betty, what are doing here?" I asked her.
"Haven't you seen Bruce lately?" She says and I start to stutter little bit.
"Um, I haven't why?" I said.
She just looked at me then we both heard the bathroom door open and we turned around to Bruce standing there. Betty's face say it all as she got up from her chair to come closer to Bruce.
"Bruce?" She says to Bruce.
"Hi Betty." Bruce says to her.
She immediately gives him a big hug and I started to get jealous of it because I have a huge crush on Bruce since we met but the reason I didn't tell him about it is because that he was still with Betty, he was happy with her and I didn't want to ruined it.
"I'm glad you came. Did Elizabeth give you the data?" She says.
"Yeah, she did." He says.
"Maybe we can find a solution together." She says make me little bit of angry.
"We can't Betty, I have to figure this out on my own." Bruce says.
"But Bruce—" Betty says as she starts to cry.
"I don't want to put you danger." He said to her.
"Ok." She said and immediately left.
I turn to see Bruce almost about to cry. As I comfort him as he lets a few tears as I calm him down.
"You can sleep in my bed tonight." I said.
"No, it's your house Elizabeth. I take the couch." He says politely.
"My house my rules." I said to him sternly.
He nodded as we headed towards my bedroom to sleep for tonight. I head to the bathroom to take a shower and change my clothes to put on my pj. I walk out to sign Bruce that the bathroom is all his. I slip into the covers waiting for Bruce and my mind was racing about me and Bruce sleeping on the same bed then my thoughts were interrupted when Bruce came out with extra pj that I had. He sip into the covers as well.
"Good night, Elizabeth." Bruce says.
"Night, Bruce." I said back to her.
Should I tell him about my feelings towards him. I tell him when the time is right.
