Killer Queen (Nick Fury/Avengers)

08. Movie

I woke up to Fury singing to me. It wasn't good but I smiled at his attempt. I opened my eyes and saw Fury propped up on his elbow, drawing on my stomach with his finger. I watched him for a few minutes, smiling to myself.

Fury finally looked at my face and smiled. "Good morning, sweetheart. How'd you sleep?"

I stretched. "Good. How about you?"

Fury's hand rested on my hip. "I slept well. I was worn out last night."

"You think you were?" I exclaimed, a teasing grin growing on my face. "I was the one having my brains fucked out."

Fury smiled and kissed me gently. "Yeah, that's true. Are you hungry?"

I grabbed his hand, tangling my fingers with his. "I'm starving. Are you any good at cooking?"

"Well enough," Fury said. "If you stick around, I'll get better."

I smiled. "I'll plan on it. You've seen too much."

Fury let go of my hand and traced his fingers down my stomach. "I would much appreciate that, sweetheart. I like you a lot."

I grabbed his wrist before he got too low. "Food first before feelings. I'm staving."

Fury kissed me again before he got up. I laid in bed for a few minutes longer before I got up. I grabbed one of Fury's shirts and my underwear before going to the kitchen. Fury was cooking without a shirt and a towel flung over his shoulder.

I sat at the breakfast bar and watched him, smiling. Fury started singing softly to himself as he cooked. He didn't notice I was there until he turned around with a pan in his hand.

Fury jumped. "You scared me. You're really quiet."

"It's almost as if I have to be for my job," I replied. "What's for breakfast?"

Fury set the pan down. "Hash browns, eggs, and sausage. I hope that sounds good."

I sat up. "Indeed it does. Where are the plates and forks?"

Fury turned to a cabinet and pulled out plates before grabbing some forks. He sat beside me and we talked while we ate. Fury was so funny and was an absolute riot.

I finished my food and pushed my plate. "I loved it. Thanks so much."

Fury looked at me, a small smile on his face. "Thanks. Do you want to hang around for a bit? We can watch some movies."

"Okay," I replied. "I think I should head back to my apartment on the compound at some time. Kenny might have another mission for me."

"Don't take too long," Fury said. "I want to see you again."

I smiled. "I know. I'll try my hardest."

Fury kissed my cheek before getting up. "I'm going to grab a movie."

I got up too. "I'll clean the dishes."

I washed everything I could. When I finished, I got dressed and packed my stuff. I didn't know when I was leaving. I finished and joined Fury in the living room. I sat on the couch with my legs crossed. Fury started the movie and I rested my head on his shoulder, taking his hand.

Fury pulled his hand away from mine and wrapped his arm around my shoulders. I sighed in comfort as I snuggled against him. Fury had such a comforting presence.

When the movie ended, I pulled away to stretch. Fury's arm fell away from my shoulders but his hand remained on my lower back. I looked back at him and he smiled.

"I think I'm falling in love with you," Fury replied.

"Okay." I got up. "I have to go. Kenny is probably expecting me."

I dashed out the door with my stuff. I headed for the nearest bus stop and waited. I felt bad for leaving him there alone but I didn't know how to respond. I wasn't usually the one for sharing my feelings or anything. I was an assassin after all.

I waited for the bus and got on when it arrived. I got off at my stop a half an hour later and walked to the compound. I went straight to Kenny's office. He was talking to another agent and waved me in. The agent left a second later and Kenny motioned for me to sit.

Kenny sat in his chair. "You never came back last night. Where did you go?"

"Fury's," I replied. "It was too much of a hassle to come back after dinner. I hope that isn't too much of a problem."

"No, of course not," Kenny said. "How was your date?"

I watched Kenny, my eyed squinting a little. "It went alright. I enjoyed it."

"Don't get too attached, Miyamoto."

"I won't."

"Good," Kenny said. "Because I have a new mission for you."
