"Hey Cap, pass the salt...."

I remember those cold words that came out of the android's mouth. 'Miss', 'Miss.Maximoff' it was as if the man had been reseted back to square one. It was like I broke him, we went from being friends to being broken

But, it really wasn't my fault. I still feel so horrible for telling Vision that though. I mean I did tell the truth he still doesn't understand human emotions. The love he's talking about is probably just friend's love!!

"For the last time Tony.. I'm using it.."

But why the hell am I stressing about it?! I continue to stab my eggs. I mean I wasn't the one rejected!

"Oh c'mon, no need to be SALT-Y!!"
"GOD!"

I could almost feel an Angel me and a devil me on my shoulders.

Angel: You did what was right, you can't take his innocence and use it to your advantage.

Devil: Oh shut up, you were an asshole so deal with it!! What's done is done! Feel ashamed!

But what if I actually like him...

Devil: Well shit!

Angel: If you really feel that way then you must be honest about your feelings!

Devil: You just told the guy to fuck off already!

Angel: It is never too late to change your ways..

Devil: NEWS FLASH!! You're basically crushing on a toaster!

Angel: Love is for the souls not the bodies.

Devil: OH SH-

"SHUT UP!!" I roared, suddenly realizing that the devil and angel me were gone which left me in the breakfast table with the rest of the team.

Stark pushed the salt towards me, putting up his hands in surrender. "Fine you can have it!"















I set the flowers to my brother's grave, I straighten myself so that I was staring at the engravings of his name on the stone grave. I forced myself not to cry, for I had cried to many times to give out anymore tears to shed now. "Hey." I breathed out the single word, leaving my whole body to tingle.

"I've been having a lot of mixed feelings from joining the Avengers," I said even if Pietro wasn't right next to me. "But, I've met a lot of good people, Cap gave me a place to stay, Nat comforted me when I had bad dreams and..." 

My mind drifts off to Vision, "Well, I thought we were going to be good friends, but now." I sighed, "I feel like I screwed up big time. He was really nice to me, even if it was only his own naiveness." 

I crouched down my legs giving out, "He made me really happy..." I whispered, not expecting anyone but Pietro to hear. Even if he couldn't, I still felt relieved to finally be able to pour my feelings out. 

"However, I still wished you were still here." I gulped down the tears that were stuck in my throat. "You would've just smacked me in the back and told me to man up, or something stupid." I let out a low laugh at the last part of my sentence.
