The Avengers Next

Chapter 7: The Step-Father

The flight was actually not that bad. Emily was distracted from the threat of heights the entire time, by talking or sketching. Her dad texted her once, but left her alone for the most part. He was probably with Bucky, Emily's step-father. Steve had been with Bucky when Emily was 13, and the family had gotten really close since. She couldn't wait to go home and brag about her training accomplishments to both of her fathers, but of course Bucky had been on a month long mission in Russia and couldn't even say goodbye to her before she left.

Her suspicions were confirmed when her dad texted again. This time saying:

'Bucky says hi'

Emily grinned and sent back:

'Tell him I said hi back. And he needs a haircut.'

Her responce, probably from Bucky grabbing Steve's phone was:

'NEVER'

The blonde laughed as she looked at her phone. Okay, so maybe she didn't have the most normal life. Or the best life. But it was perfect to her.
