My thumb hovered above the keyboard of my cellphone. Danny had sent it with a box of my stuff, and it had taken me the better part of an hour to go through all my text messages. Now that I had finished them, what do I say? Tell them I lost my phone? That I had been busy with Christmas plans? That the Avengers kidnapped me and I was unconscious for a week from falling off a bridge?
I sighed, and shut off my phone. That seems like a tomorrow problem.
Feeling mentally tired but physically energized, I leaned back onto the pillows of my bed. Part of me wanted to close my eyes and do nothing—but the other part wanted so much to go for a run. I hadn't been able to go running since I had gotten here. There was the whole unconscious thing, plus having a leg injury, and even now I doubt they would let me run free around the compound. Not after yesterday's scene.
My eyes opened, and I stared at my hand in front of my face. Why? I had always been the master of my powers. I owned them, not the other way around.
The only good thing that came out of losing control was the Avengers leaving me alone. After Wanda's visit last night to offer her help—as if I'd take that offer—I had been alone. Even as the sun started to set outside my window, there was no interaction from outside my bedroom door except for a plate of food.
