The Sparrow

Chapter 18

I quickly jumped up off of Tony and straightened out my T-shirt.

"We were just um... We were.." I stuttered out nervously.

"We were just fooling around Rogers. Calm down, what are you doing out of bed anyways?" Tony cut in for me. I let out a quiet sigh that must've been louder than I thought because Steve shot me a look.

"Couldn't sleep so I thought I'd head to the gym. Heard a noise from the cafeteria and came in here to find you two rolling around on the floor." He spat. I felt my face heat up.

"We weren't-" I started but Tony cut me off again.

"That's none of your concern Spangles. Last time I checked we were allowed to be in the kitchen eating ice cream at" pause to check watch. "two o'clock in the morning." It's two o'clock already?

"Speaking of which I should really get to bed. Long day tomorrow!" I yawned and stretched dramatically for special effect. I side stepped Steve and walked out the door. Once I turned the corner I dashed down the hall to my room. The door opened with a quiet hiss as I stepped inside. I made sure it closed behind me before jumping in bed and pulling the covers up to my chin. I wiggled a bit and winced. I arched my back and reached behind me to pull the gun from my waistband. I set it on my side table and rolled onto my side. With one more deep breath, I drifted off to a dreamless sleep.

Waking up in the morning is my least favorite part of the day. I sit up in bed and take in a deep breath think about the events of last night. I giggle quietly to myself and stand from my bed. I rub my fists over my eyes and pull a pair of black pants and a plain blue T-shirt out of the set of drawers in the room. Tasha must've gotten me some things because I was even able to pull out my undergarments. I laughed to myself and stepped into the bathroom to shower. Once out of the shower I brushed my teeth and pulled on my clothes along with a pair of bright green socks and black Converse. With a slight smile I stepped outside my bedroom door, mentally preparing myself for today.

A/N: and there you have it! Chapter 18!! I really hope you little Hananas like it!!!! I worked hard ^.^ and your QOTD is: how did you spend your New Year's Eve? I spent it on Wattpad reading because I'm out of town and two if my friends who love me very much continued to talk to me until it hit midnight here to wish me a happy new year :)
