Rose's P.O.V.
"How's it looking from up there?"
"Like Christmas, but with a little more me." Tony responds from his suit.
Pepper and I are in the living room, while Tony I busy hooking up the last thing for the Tower, and then it'll e finished! Even though I've only been here for 2 days, Tony and I are like family. I'm the little sister, and he's the alcoholic, annoying older brother, and Pepper is obviously the girlfriend. Tony finally lands, grabs a glass of wine, and moves towards us.
"This is my baby, and she is perfect." He says, taking a sip of his drink.
"Your baby?" Pepper asks, arching an eyebrow. "I thought it was our baby."
"Well, it does say Stark on it......" I throw a pull at him.
"Tony! That's mean! Apologize! Now!" I demand, and he shrugs his shoulders.
"Well, it's the truth!" I glare daggers at him, and he corrects himself-sort of.
"Fine. It's our baby." he finally gives in.
"Thank you." Pepper says, taking a drink of her own wine.
"Well, I guess you can have 12 percent of the credit." He adds, checking over the Tower specks.
Pepper puts a hand on her chest.
"12 percent? On my baby?"
"Well, you did let the private elevator term with huge, sweaty workmen." I say, and Pepper stares. "Right, sorry, I'm supposed to be on your side. Not helping." I mumble, and Pepper looks satisfied.
"Don't worry. The next tower will say 'Potts' on it. Well, at least on the lease....." She throws another pillow at him, and hits him in the face.
"Don't mess up my pretty face!"
Pepper and I rolls our eyes, and J.A.R.V.I.S. joins the conversation.
"Sir, Agent Coulson is here to speak with you. He says it's urgent." He says with his robotic, British accent.
"Well, tell him to leave it urgently. I'm busy." Tony says, moving towards Pepper.
"Ewwwwww." I groan, and Tony gives me the 'evil eye'.
"Tony! Please just let him in!" I plead. In response, he shakes his head.
"Sir, I'm afraid he's hacking my systems."
"Just tell him that I'm available on Thursdays, 1 - 5 p.m. Make an appointment." He retorts, obviously annoyed. But, nonetheless, his phone starts ringing. Surprisingly, he answers it.
"This is the life-model decoy of Tony Stark. Please leave a message." Pepper rolls her eyes once again, and I giggle.
"Tony, this is urgent." Coulson says from the other line.
"Then leave it urgently." With that, the elevator doors open, revealing the one and only, Agent Phillip Coulson.
"Phil!" Pepper and I yell-well, I squel- unanimously, and I run over to hug him.
"Security breach!" Tony yells at the same time, but suddenly looks hurt.
"Hey, when did he become Phil? I thought his first name was Agent." He says, being his usual cocky, sarcastic self.
"Stark, I need you to look per these files." Coulson says, trying to hand Tony the tablet. Key word, trying.
"By the way, nice outfit Rose."
"Thanks!"
"Sorry, I don't like being handed things." He says, taking a gulp of his wine.
"Well, that's too bad, because I love being handed things! Here." Pepper cheers.
She hands Coulson her drink, takes the tablet from him, takes Tony's drink, hands him the tablet, buts his drink on a table beside her, takes her drink back from Coulson, and sits down as Tony opens the files.
"Is this about the Avengers?" Coulson gives her a weird look, causing her to try to quickly recover.
"Which I know nothing about." Good recover Pep.
"I thought I didn't qualify." Tony says, thinking out loud. I guess I'm not the only one who does that.
"I didn't know that either." Pepper quips in, trying to seem innocent.
"You still don't." Coulson adds, causing me to punch him in the arm, and him to rub where I hit him.
"Apparently, I am volitile, self-obsessed, and don't play well with others."
"That, I did know" Pepper quips in once again, causing Tony to lift and eyebrow towards her, as she mouths 'sorry'.
"Well, something happened at a bass in D.C. that the Avengers are needed for." Phil says, gently squeezing my arm because he felt me tense up.
Why?
Because Clint is there. One of my two only best friends, is based in D.C. Does Nat know?
"Well, in that note, I'm going to pack my things, and go visit my parents."
"But-" Tony starts to protest.
"You have homework to do. When I get back--" She starts whispering in his ear, and Tony starts grinning like a serial killer.
Curse you, enhanced Asgardian hearing.
"Deal." Tony says, as Pepper leaves.
"Rose, could you come here for a sec?" Coulson says as he pulls me into the kitchen.
"Sure, what's up?" I ask, trying to cover my neevousness. What can I say? You get really nervous when a father figure in your life pulls you away from people.
"Rose, do you remember when you first woke up, and we discussed your family? Most importantly, Loki?" He's procrastinating. I can feel it.
"Coulson, stop stalling. What happened?"
He takes a very, very deep breath.
"Your brother, Loki, is on Earth. He came by something that we had wen experimenting on, called the Tesseract. He took out almost everyone in the room he was in, except for Fury, Dr. Eric Selvig, and Agent Barton. Agent hill and I weren't in the room. He pressed a septet he had against the doctor's and Agent Barton's chests."
I gasp, tears gathering in my eyes.
"So, so Cli- *sniffle*- Clint's-"
"Compermised." Coulson finishes, and I burst into tears.
