Avengers: Jedi Master (CWAC Book Two)

Chapter 4: Ideas

Shea rubs her eyes as BB-8 whirls and beeps at her bedside, she groans and pulls her blanket over her head. BB-8 whirls louder and beeps, his chest plate opening and his small blow torch arm leaves and heads to Shea's arm.

"Ow!" she snaps pulling the blanket down. "What?" she grumbles and looks to him, he beeps and whirls again. Shea sits up. "What do you mean Tony Stark is in the living room?" she jumps out of bed. "Did you let him in?" she points to BB. "Did you?" he whirls and beeps sadly. Shea sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose. "Never mind" she grumbles pulling on a hoodie before leaving her room, BB following behind her. Tony stands seeing the two of them and smiles.

"Hey"

"Hey, Stark, what're you doing here?" Shea looks to her watch. "It's 1am"

"And I'm sorry....I just I had this idea....and I wanted to talk to you about it before I....loose it" Shea sighs and nods.

"Sure" she motions to her couch. "Sit...let's get this done....what is it?" she sits in her armchair. Tony sits across from her.

"The tech you've already installed in the jet.....could we rip it out and install Stark tech instead? Could we do that?" Shea shrugs and cocks her head.

"It's.....possible" she nods. "It'll take weeks though....plus it would mean stripping out a lot of the already installed fittings..."

"But we can do it?" he asks, Shea sighs and nods.

"If that's what you want to do...." Tony looks to her.

"It's your jet......."

"No, it's fine....we can do that" she stands. "You want a drink?" she asks moving to the small kitchen at the side.

"Oooh go on, twist my leg" he teases over his shoulder as she sets two glasses on the counter.

...................................

Tony wakes on Shea's couch, said woman sprawled out across his lap, fast asleep, hair a mess, and he still can't help but note how pretty she is, the red hair, the little cluster of freckles across her nose, he glances around before lifting a hand and stroking her cheek. She groans and shifts stretching a little before settling back. Tony smirks and touches her neck.

"Hey...Hey, Shea......Skywalker" she groans again as her eyes flutter open, the blue colour seemingly brighter in the light of the apartment.

"Stark?"

"Yeah...you fell asleep on me" she sits up and stands looking away from him.

"Sorry" she mumbles moving to her kitchen. "Urm....you want coffee?" she asks straightening her shirt and shorts.

"Sure...." he stands and stretches groaning when his shoulder cracks. Shea chews on her thumb before she looks to him and then away again, Tony smirks. "You should have stopped at two glasses last night" she chuckles nervously. "We didn't do anything.....I tried...you kindly told me where to go....after that we just....hung out"

"Okay"

"I swear"

"I believe you" she states grabbing two mugs. "Just don't hold it against me if I don't drink with you any time soon" Tony laughs and sits at the counter.

"No, that is probably a good idea....and you were right...." Shea raises an eyebrow. "We are to be working together....so sleeping together and it being awkward after wouldn't have been helpful" she smiles at him and nods. "So....friends?"

"Friends" the share a smile.

........................................

"What's this?" Shea asks walking towards Tony who lounges on one of the jet couches, he slides his sunglasses off his eyes and raises an eyebrow at the redhead, who holds up a sheet of paper.

"I don't know I can't read from allllll the way over here" he teases. Shea rolls her eyes and shoves the paper at him, Tony takes it and reads it. "Oh....it's a transfer form"

"I know what it is" she tells him. "Why are we moving the Tempest?"

"It'll just be easier....plus there's more space....and with you moving into the mansion, housing the Tempest there will just be easier" Shea sighs and drops down next to him.

"When you put it like that" Tony grabs her legs and pulls them over his lap, Shea shoots him an annoyed look.

"Speaking of......when are you moving in?"

"Well rent is paid till the end of the month......I'll just pack little bits every day....till then" she shrugs as BB rolls past them beeping away.

"Or" Tony starts squeezing her knee. "We could grab some boxes, Steve and Bucky and we can have you moved in tonight" Shea looks to him.

"Why does it have to be now?" she asks. Tony shrugs. "What's two more weeks?"

"I will just keep turning up at your apartment at 1am with ideas" he teases, Shea shoots him a look.

"Fine" she grounds out.

"Don't be so pouty" he teases. "You'll like the mansion...plus you get to meet Selene" he looks to her.

"Why does that make you pull that face?" Shea asks with a smirk. "Oh, are you afraid of her?" Shea teases, Tony grabs her thigh and squeezes. "Ow"

"No, I'm not afraid of her" Shea raises an eyebrow. "Fine, I am a little afraid of her.....but you will be too" She chuckles, he smiles at her.
