Waiting For Superman

Chapter 7

"Is she going to be alright Dr. Banner?" I heard a man ask.

My eye's were still closed and the pounding ache in my head was still there.

"Yes. she just hit her head, extremely hard it seems. The impact and her standing up extremely fast, caused this. She should be waking up soon," Dr. Banner answered.

I groaned and opened my eyes, I instantly closed them again. The glaring white light I saw were to much for my eyes right now; I groaned yet again as I placed an arm over my eyes.

"See, she's fine," another man pipped up.

"Oh hush Tony. Why are you here anyways?" The first man asked.

"Well I saw you carrying a limp girl in your arms, I wanted to know what you did to her," Tony replied.

There was silence after that. I was grateful for the silence, the pounding in my head got slightly worse, and the voices of these people were not making it better.

"Are you okay Ms. Ouellet?" The voice of Dr. Banner spoke softly by my side.

"My head hurts," I said for the second time that day.

"That's to be expected," he let out a soft chuckle." Are you able to open your eyes?'

"Yes, but they are to bright."

"Tony turn down the lights some," Banner commanded.

I waited till I could tell the brightness in the room dimmed behind my closed eyelids; I opened my eyes, slowly this time, and looked around the room. Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Steve Rogers were all in the small white room. I blushed when I saw Steve sitting next to me, I didn't understand why he would stay with me. I mean I did intrude in his personal space.

"How long was I out?" I ask.

"About ten minutes," Bruce told me." Follow the light please," he told me as he held out a small object, a small white light beaming from it.

I followed it with my eyes, the light not really bothering me this time. Bruce pocketed the thing in the pocket on his shirt when he saw I had nothing further wrong with me.

"Steve told us what happened," Tony said standing up." Looks like we got a creeper out on the loose in S.H.I.E.L.D."

I glared at him," I'm not a creeper."

"Mmmhhh," he was all he said or mumbled.

"You must have not heard me when I explained she could read objects past memories. And that's what she was doing when she fell into my room, Stark," Steve hissed.

Tony held his hands up, palms out,"Just trying to be funny Gramps."

I watched as Bruce rolled his eyes then turn his attention to me," Well, Ms. Ouellet, now that you have hit your head, and then pass out from it. Your going to have to wake up every thirty minutes, when you go to sleep tonight, make sure you don't have a concussion."

I bit my lip," How am I going to do that?"

"I guess we could get someone to stay with you to-" Banner never got to finish his sentence.

"I volunteer as tribute!" Tony said holding up three fingers.

"Did you just quote,'The Hunger Games'?" I asked.

"I did," Tony stated matter-of-factly.

"Someone who won't try and sleep with her, Stark," Steve said glaring at him.

"I never said I was going to do that," Tony said, his voice holding some annoyance.

"Ladies your both pretty," I say rolling my eyes." Now could you two stop fighting now. You look stupid and immature."

Steve blushed as Tony gawked at me.

"I refuse to watch her tonight. She called me a lady. And pretty."

And with that Tony walked out the door.

"I'll look over her tonight," Steve said quietly.
