I breathed heavily, as I pushed myself harder. I was running at 7 miles an hour now, and I know that doesn't seem fast, but for someone who just had surgery on her ankle 4 months ago that's pretty good. My ankle was screaming, but I wanted it to get stronger. I turned my music up louder and pushed myself even harder. Sweat was dripping from my face, and I knew that if I got off I probably wouldn't be able to walk. I let me mind wander to all my friends at S.H.I.E.L.D. I wondered what they were up to.
I was going back to work tomorrow, after being away for 4 months, the only friend I had seen was Clint and that was because he knows that I push myself and I'm not supposed to. But Clint wasn't coming to see me today so I snuck off to the gym in my apartment building. I'd been running for 1 hour now, this was great for my endurance. Being part of the Avengers due to my great ability to fight. Which I learned from Natasha.
My mind wandered to the super heros. I hadn't spoken to Tony since after he visited me in the hospital once with a bouqet of roses. I had to go in for a long over due ankle surgery. They had to rebreak the bone and heal it right, it had healed crooked and never fuly healed from an accident when I was younger. They then put a metal plate in. Because lets face it, my 5'2" body stature wasn't growing anymore. I was already 25. I thought about all the times I would lay awake at night thinking about Tony, hoping and waiting for him to get ahold of me. I know that he wouldn't. He was too busy being that playboy, billionair, philanthropist, hottie that he was. I had a largest crush on him. While the rest of the Avengers didn't like his cockiness, I actually quite enjoyed it, it fit him. Thought sometimes it got on my nerves when we would get into very sarcastic fights. Natasha always told me that Tony and I would end up together, but I definetly beg to differ. He would never like me more then a friend, let alone ever thinking about loving me. Bruce would call me sometimes to make sure I was taking my pain medication, and I would always tell him little white lies about how I was taking them daily. Steve would use the phone after Bruce and find out how I was doing. Everyone wanted to come and visit me, but they didn't know where I lived. I had threatened Clint and told him if he told anyone I would personally hurt him.
Fury knows, but Fury doesn't give out enclosed information. I don't know why I didn't want everyone knowing where I lived, I think it was because I just wanted to have the ability to have privacy.
My thoughts were interuppted when I felt hands go around my waist and pick me up off of the treadmill. I got scared and my agent skills kicked in, but he was stronger then me, and knew my moves. I was turned around to see the face of a very angry clint. I gulped and took out my headphones slowly.
"Hey." I smiled nervously. He shook his head and set me down. I knew what he was doing. He was testing me. If I could walk just fine he wouldn't be mad, but if I couldn't he would do what he does best, take care of me. I sucked in a breath and stepped on my ankle. I had gone to far, if I wanted to go to work tomorrow I would need to be off my ankle for the rest of the day, and take 2 or 3 pain meds. He sighed and picked me up and took me up to my apartment.
"You aren't staying here tonight." He said, I saw an evil glint in his eye
"What?"
"Thats right, You did exactly what I told you not to, and now I cant trust you. You're going some where, where I know you'll be watched the entire time, because I have to go on a quick mission for the night. I came to make sure you weren't doing anything stupid. Good thing I have this back up plan." He said while running around my apartment and grabbing all my things. He picked me and my bag up and took me to his car, " Here" He handed me an ice pack. I sighed and took it and put it on my throbbing ankle.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll see." He smiled at me.
