December 23th was a normal day for New York City, last minute shoppers searching everywhere for gifts and food for the holiday, people enjoying the 40 degree Farenheit temperature outside, but for Noemie it wasn't just a normal day. It was THE worst normal day ever.

In Stark's tower, she was sitting comfortably in front of the window with the best view in the building of the town. It's the only thing that can calm her when she's upset. And that day, well, she was angry, sad and most of all bored. The air was grey, the ground was in a yellow-ish green and no snow, not even a snowflake was laying on the ground. Noemie was getting more and more depressed as the hours passed and the sun light gave place for the darkness of the night. She took the last sip of water that was left in her cup and got up slowly as her round belly was getting heavier and heavier as the months passed. She walked to the kitchen where all the others were eating.

"Noemie, how are you doing? Are you coming to eat with us?" Her husband Clint asked as she walked into the room.

She looked at every one around the table. They all looked happy, eating spaghetti and meatballs, her favorite meal. She suddenly remembered her mother made that meal everytime she felt sad and especially during the last two weeks of each year to thank her daughter for the good year and grades in school. And of course the night everybody would eat turkey and cranberries, she and her family would eat the special spaghetti and meatballs. The reason was they never celebrated Christmas. Noemie never had a gift at Christmas and never believed in Santa Claus. This year was her first time she celebrated Christmas with the Avengers since Clint and her moved from Canada to Tony's. British Colombia, Canada to be exact and they already have three feet of snow over there. Noemie was so jealous, she was mad at herself for moving in New York but it was for Clint, she did it for her husband.

Smile, Noemie... Smile... She thought to herself.

"No... I'm not that hungry. Thanks..." She answered, leaving the room the second she put the cup in the sink.

Clint looked at the other as surprised as them to hear her say she wasn't hungry for spaghetti and meatballs.

"Your wife doesn't look good, Clint..." Steve remarked as they all saw her leaving the room, slowly.

"You should go talk to her. She's acting weird lately." Natasha proposed him with a comforting smile.

"I think I should too... Don't wait for me to finish eating." He said getting up, worried for her.

"We weren't going to." Tony added with his sarcastic, annoying voice.

Clint find Noemie in the same place she was sitting for the last few days. He came behind her and wrapped his arms around her.

"Noemie, are you okay? And don't say you are because I know you're not... I don't even know why I asked that question at the first place." He laughed and kissed her on the cheek. "What's going on, Hon'?"

"Nothing..." She sighed, looking away from his glare.

"Noemie..."

"Clint, what's the meaning of a large warm blanket with hot chocolate and cuddling with your love one in front of the fireplace if there's no snow nor cold temperature?"

"That, my lovely bee, is a good question. But what is it with you and all the thinking today?"

"I miss the snow, okay..."

"Oh you mean that's why you are so grumpy lately?" He laughed as he sat next to her and put an arm around her shoulder.

"Maybe..."

"Natasha told me about the... hum... Frozen thing..."

Noemie smiled remembering the little accident. She was watching Frozen with Natasha. The movie was just starting when Anna started to sing Do you want to build a snowman. Natasha turned to her and sang at the same time the first line.
