Adopted by the Avengers

Chapter 11 - Secrets

I woke up in my bedroom. I noticed it was getting dark out, which made me curious about how long I've been in my bed for. I sat up really fast and felt an aching pain in my right leg and my wrist. I looked down to see there were bandages wrapped around both my wrists and my legs too.

Oh no if my legs and wrists were wrapped, then somebody had seen "fly". I was cursing myself for being so careless when I hear voices at my door. I instantly lay down, with much difficulty, and pretended to be asleep. I heard Natasha's voice speak something I couldn't comprehend.

In case you didn't know, Natasha's rooms were across from mine which made it hard to sneak out after my curfew. Unless she is a little tipsy if you know what I mean, which wasn't often.

I heard a lot of feet shuffling outside my door and some doors slam. Then I heard little most hated's voice. (Amy, who else?) From what I could here, she was talking about how I was so mean to her in the orphanage, and that I deserved to have these bandages. Then she murmured something I couldn't quite hear.

I was about fed up. I hated all the secrecy and mysteriousness about this place. Wanda was the only one who told me why we're here, and she didn't even give important details like who they are. I could tell from the stares when we go out in public with them, that was only a few times, that they are not normal. That thought made me uneasy. All of them, Natasha, Steve, Bruce, Wanda, and even Lyric disappeared throughout the day to go to "work" whatever that was. They could be serial killers for all I know. Actually, more like scientists, why would they be doing tests on us for nothing?

My stomach rumbled and I then first realized that I was absolutely starving, and I was parched too. I finally got up, hoping that there was food left at the door, or there was something to eat. I found it hard walking I was so hungry. I was stumbling and tripping over my own feet. I really hoped Natasha was out drinking so that now she was in a heavy sleep, but like I said that is rare.

I finally found the door and was walking down the hallway when I saw a figure in front of me. The figure appeared so suddenly I almost shrieked. I controlled myself though. It turned out to be Wanda. She was on her phone and didn't notice me until she was upon me.

"Y/N!" she said, the happiness in her tone sounded fake.

"Hi" i said with no enthusiasm at all.

"You're up!"

"Yup"

"Great!"

"....."

"...."

This was how all my conversations with any of the adults went.

"Where you headed?"

"To get food, I'm so hungry I'm starting to see two of everything"

"Really?!!"

"Yeah" she was sounding surprised which was unexpected.

"I thought Amy was bringing you food and water"

Well that would explain why I didn't have anything I thought, of course she can't handle a responsibility like that. I thought of saying this to Wanda but then realized that Wanda actually likes Amy and she probably wouldn't believe me, like everyone else. Instead I said:

"No, she must have forgotten and was going to do it later" I hate telling lies, even though my personality would suggest that I was the type to tell lies to get out of different situations. Its funny, because Amy is the one to tell the lies. But....I mean why wouldn't she? Wanda shrugged and then proceeded to walk to her room which was on the other side of the building.

When I got to the kitchens, Amy was sitting there with Lyric and Steve was telling the about something. I snuck in and was busy digging through the breakfast cabinet, because why not? when I heard Amy sneer

"Well look who it is. Little Miss Needy, you missy aren't supposed to be out of your room right now. " I closed the cabinet and looked at her. I didn't glare, I just looked at her with no interest at all.

"Well if you were not so busy flirting with Lyric, then maybe I would been able to eat and drink, and gotten better sooner, also i wouldn't have to come get my own food." After I saw Amy turning beet red and squirming in her seat, I went next door to the lounge" I think that made my day.
