Chapter 11

I entered into the inner part of the boat and saw a long hallway with a bunch of people walking back and forth, there was also a bunch of different doors leading to different rooms, this was all so new to me that I didn't know how to respond, I followed Coulson down the hallway and every time we passed a different person they all looked at me the same way, with curiosity, wonder, some anger, and possible detest for me. I have received these looks before so that wasn't anything new, but I usually deserved the looks from the people I got them from, I either pissed them off or wronged them in one way or another, these people seemed to hate me already and they didn't even know me, or they thought that they knew me because they read my files. To be completely honest I didn't even know I had files, my parents didn't even bother getting me a birth certificate let alone enough personal information for me to have a file. I did know how I felt about people I didn't know a thing about know so much about me and my past, I didn't even know the names of the people who hated me, this somewhat disturbed me.

I continued to walk down the hallway and followed Coulson with Bruce trailing behind me, I guess he saw my nervousness and off putting manner, because he came up beside me and placed a hand on my back bringing me back to reality "are you ok?" he asked quietly I just looked into his big brown puppy dog eyes and saw his genuine heart and kind soul "I'm fine" I mutter softly, he looks at me with a non-believing face with his mouth twisted up and furrowed brows "Myra I may not have known you for very long but I can tell when you aren't okay" I looked up at him and he had a small smirk playing on his face, I had a bit of confusion and curiosity in my face as if to say, 'how in the hell do you know when I am not okay when I say I am?' he apparently knew that I was thinking this due to his response he gave me "you always have a small distant voice and avoid eye contact as much as possible, you also blink more than usual" he had a grin playing at his lips looking as if he had just won the prize of being able to know what I was thinking "that's how I know" he said a few seconds later completing his earlier statement, I just playfully glared at him and walked past him and beside Coulson. We walked in silence for a bit but then Coulson leaned in closer to me and whispered something "I see you and Bruce are getting along well" he said sending me a wink I looked back and Bruce to see him smiling at me and I smiled in return, I then turned back to Coulson and whispered back to him "he was the only one who cared enough to try to be my friend, I figured the least I could do would be to try and return the favour" Coulson looked at me with a smirk on his face "actually, the least you could've done would be to do nothing at all" he said smiling and then glancing back at Bruce

"I'll take you to the control room, where you can see everyone and then you can get settled in" Coulson said to me "um, actually can I get settled in first? I just spent the last few hours getting captured from my home and flew miles and miles away to the middle of the ocean, and it's just a lot to take in all at once," I say back "plus I have had to pee since I got on that fucking plane" at this Coulson laughs slightly and nods in understanding, "of course Myra, I understand, I'll show you to your room then, follow me" he says I then followed him down a different hallway and followed Coulson to my room, he was walking quickly so I had to do a light jog at times just to keep up, I had Bruce following behind me but he was walking normal pace, like he had known where to go, which was probably true. I looked back at Bruce for a second and then when I turned back around I couldn't see Coulson anymore so I started jogging in the direction I thought he went in, instead of thinking logically and just wait for Bruce and walk with him, when I finally saw him again I was still jogging up to him and when I finally caught up to him he stopped abruptly causing me to run right into him and stumble back, he turned around after noticing I bumped into him "are you ok?" he asked "why'd you stop so suddenly?" I asked rubbing my nose slightly "we're here, this is your room" he said gesturing to the door in front of him "oh, I guess that would make sense then" he chuckled to himself and opened the door letting me walk in first.
