Shopping

YOUR POV

Tony had lead us all down to the garage to go to the mall. It was kinda his thing that once a new season came, he would take us all shopping. It was now summer and i was very excited to go get new clothes cause i had lost an entire thing of luggage thanks to the stupid airline. Not to be ungrateful but i really miss those clothes. Anyways, Steve and Bucky took the motorcycles while the rest of us had to cram into the crossover. Even though the car was large, it was still a tight fit for eight full-grown people -- especially when two were gods that were super tall! Tony and pepper rode in the front; the next row was me, Loki, and Thor; and then behind us was Nat, Clint, and Bruce. It was a little awkward to sit between Loki and Thor, but i managed just fine by blasting music throughout the car. When we finally arrived at the mall, i all but jumped out of the car. I ran into the mall to happily see Wanda and Vision sitting at the food court. Wanda and I hugged -- Vision smiled and told me i looked lovely like the gentleman he is -- and finally the others came in. We stood and talked for a while, but like the child i am i sat complaining about us not moving. Loki found this hilarious.

"Would it bother you if i brought up how you just went to Africa and caused them to talk about that?" He said with that mischievous grin. i rolled my eyes and pouted more. Finally, after both me and Thor complained loud enough, Pepper was so annoyed we began walking to the first store. I was giddy as could be and skipped ahead of the group, Thor came to join me. As we were walking into the store i spotted a little girl, probably only four or five, crying at her mother over her hair. I didn't understand at first, and then i saw the back of the child's head. Most of her hair was gone and the rest was thin and unhealthy. I all but sobbed for her. Then she saw me and her face lit up with joy. as fast as her chubby and stubby legs could carry her she was in front of ME!

"YOU ARE THE BEST HERO!" She exclaimed while clasping her tiny hands around mine. My eyes welled up with tears; one at be called a hero, and two because she was adorable. I could feel all of the others watch with joy as the little girls praised me.

" None of my friends know who you are but last year when that mean guy attacked my day care, you were the first person there. Mamma says you saved my brothers life. And then you took the guy to jail!" She said while hugging my legs. Her mother apologized repeatedly but i was over joyed.

" Don't take any worry over it miss. And you sweetheart, just know that anyone can be a superhero. You can save the world just by smiling." I said, even though i despised how cheesy it was. The little girl hugged me once more and then they left. Wanda and Natasha congratulated me while dragging me off to the women's, but not before Bucky gave me a smile.

" Good work soldier." He said as the boys dragged him off. We were now shopping and i was happily looking at a pair of f/c converses that i wanted when i felt a body behind me. i turned to find Nat holding a bra that said "naughty girl" and we both collapsed laughing. We continued shopping and before i knew it i had almost everything i had wanted, and only from this one store! I had gotten two graphic tees, three plain tees, one suit, three dresses, two shoes, and a necklace which i hadn't originally wanted but Loki picked it out. We began walking to the next store and this time i was walking next to Loki.

" So how do you like shopping with the Avengers?" I asked as our hands gently touched one another. He groaned and i laughed knowing how hard it could be to shop with Tony. The billionaire, play-boy, philanthropist was very picky about his clothing.

"Let's just say i would much rather they didn't try and choose everything i wear. With Captain Rodgers trying to make me wear the most basic clothes in existence, and then Antony and Dr.Banner picking out suits... i would much rather choose my own clothes." He sighed. I giggled and placed a hand on his shoulder.
