Summary: While on break, your friends, also known as the Avengers decide to make a visit to you at your beach house for some fun.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taking a break from being with the Avengers is probably the best thing you could have ever done for yourself. It's not like you hated being around them–they were actually really good company and all of them were your best and closest friends. It was the job, the constant search for approval from the public, the need to always be better than everyone else–all of that was just too much on your emotional state.

You were easily replaced since all you did was hack into stuff and be their personal computer genius. Yes, there was Jarvis who was a lot better than you, but in certain situations, you were the person they looked for the most. That, and you had a special skill in mechanical engineer and helped create new and exciting technology for the team. It was fun work, but you like what you do now.

Now, you were a Youtuber, and you have a pretty big fan base since everyone was interested in your stories of being with the Avengers. Your Youtube channel consists mostly of you talking about the Avengers, having them on as guests to talk, showing off new technology that you create as a hobby, and reaction videos to comments and other things that fans want the Avengers to know. It was a fun job especially since you're still on Tony's payroll. It's allowed you to live the lifestyle you want and to do the things you enjoy. He considers you family so he's going to support you no matter what.

Those big paychecks have offered you a big beach house in New York where you can relax, go to the beach, test out cool technology, and anything else you wanted to do. Your beach house was huge, and it was often lonely for one person. There were at least eight bedrooms, six and a half baths, a big pool, a theater room, and a game room. Tony really wanted you to have it all and made sure to spoil you.

One of the great things about Tony is that he likes to surprise you when you least expect him. Usually, it's just him, Steve, and Nat, but other times he'll bring the whole group to hang with you. Times with them were so fun, and you had such great stories to tell your fans when they left.

About an hour ago, you had just finished recording and editing another video when you felt the wind pick up. It wasn't windy all day, but then you heard the noise of Tony's big ass jet headed your way. Looking at the sky, you shielded your eyes from the burning sun to watch the jet land on the sand. Almost all of the Avengers came piling out of it with summer items in their hands.

"Thanks for the warning," you said, hugging Tony.

"I figured it was time for a visit. I brought the whole crew with me."

"T-the whole c-crew?" you stuttered, feeling a blush creep up your neck.

"Yes, everyone," he smirked, patting you on your back. He knew of your crush on the super soldier, and he used that against you every time he brought him over.

"Hey, it's good to see you," Steve smiled, giving you a hug.

"I thought Bucky was in Wakanda," you asked, watching as the man of your dreams stepped off the plane.

"He was. We picked him up on the way. Good luck," he whispered, patting you on the back. Great, Tony must have told him. Bucky made you so nervous, you didn't know what to do with yourself. He could ask you what the time was, and you wouldn't be able to form a single word. It's gotten better since you met him, but you were still a nervous wreck. If only you knew how he felt towards you, then maybe you could be better when it comes to presenting yourself to him.
