I saw that day,
Lost my mind
Lord, I'm fine
Maybe in time
You'll want to be mine

Kevin didn't expect to be playing Jenga on his carpet with the Human Torch and The Tempest, on his 33rd birthday. Yet he was and he wasn't complaining, he need a chance to feel young again, it wasn't exactly skiing down a snow covered hill, but he did something similar to that a few months ago, before the collapse of SHIELD.

Now he spent most of his days hunting down possible leads, but they were mainly fruitless and Elise saw how the disappointing turn outs were taking a toll on him. Naturally, as his best friend, she decided to surprise him by throwing a small party at Kevin's former apartment in New York. He managed to get it back from his friend Marcel who had been subletting it. He was happy to return to the city again. He didn't exactly have a plan in his future but it was still good to be home.

Kevin was pleased by the get together, he didn't want to see too many people he didn't want to exactly be celebrating another year without his sister. Elise and Johnny were determined to keep his mind off of it and instead decided to keep him on edge, by playing the entertaining game.

His apartment was a small studio one. The door opened up into a short corridor, on the right was a open entrance to his compact kitchen with a stove, fridge and two sets of cupboards and drawers. It was a tight place but perfect for just one person. On the left was the door to the toilet which he kept meticulously clean because he was a neat freak. The foyer branched out into the living space.

The living room consisted of one dark mahogany coffee table and one six seater leather couch on its left and facing it was a brown Lazy Boy. The furniture was neatly arranged on top of a white woolen, square rug that stood out against the wooden floor boards. Past the living room was his bed which was a Queen sized bed, covered in a navy blue sheet and complimented with grey pillows at the head of the bed.

The flat screen TV was on the wall facing the large couch and the opposing wall was his investigation wall. Everything he had tracked down on Isabelle was pasted on that wall in a organized scatter of paper clippings, drawings, pictures from when they were younger and names and numbers of possible leads. He had linked most of them in red string, except for one that did somewhat pan out, the one in blue string.

He ignored the wall as much as possible for Elise's sake and focused on enjoying the day, being himself, just for a few hours.

Being as delicate as possible, Kevin slowly pulled at the sharp edges of the wooden block as Elise and Johnny hovered anticipating, hoping he would fail. The tower wobbled a little and he immediately stilled, luckily it didn't topple over and he swiftly yanked the slab out of its alignment.

"Damn." Johnny cursed scowling at the birthday boy, disappointed by Kevin's win.

"Your turn hot shot." Kevin stated quite smug of his accomplishment. Johnny Storm rubbed his hand as if to warm them up, which seemed pretty unnecessary considering his ability to spontaneously catch on fire.
