Avengers Hopelessness

Ch. 15 "Safety"

                                  Spencer POV 

I was now sitting on the couch, James was looking at me concerned, 

"Doll what were you thinking?" He said in a concerned tone, 

"I uh," I began, 

He arched his brow,

"I just thought now would be a good time to leave.." I whispered, 

"And why would that be?" He said sternly 

I looked down at my hands, 

"Because Tony doesn't deserve what I brought on him," I said 

"What's that supposed to mean?" He said 

I continued to look at my hands, 

"I brought my problems to him, I just wanted his advice, but instead-" I began, 

"He took over the situation as he had a right to do, I mean from what I heard you were just going to go right back to that piece of garbage," James said with a harsh tone, 

Not towards me, I could tell he was directing that towards Derek, 

It was silent, 

"I just don't want him to have to keep worrying about me, I can look after myself," I mumbled 

"He knows that but he has a right to be worried, I mean look, you were ready to up and leave at two in the morning, just because HE isn't on the streets right now doesn't mean there aren't other dangers out there," James said 

Now that I thought about it I guess it was pretty stupid, 

I felt his fingers loop under my chin making me look at him, 

"I know it's hard to understand but we're doing this for your own safety," He said 

"I know.." I began 

"Then let us, we can't keep you safe if you are trying to sneak out," He said 

I was so caught up in his eyes, so blue, so filled with concern and worry, I'm not used to minus Tony a man looking at me like that, 

Why does he look at me that way? 

I just nodded, 

"Don't worry it will be over soon," James said 

"What does that even mean?" i asked 

"All you need to know is it's being handled," He said smiling at me lightly, 

He stood up taking my hand, 

"Now how about you go get some sleep," He said 

I nodded, 

He made sure I went to my room by taking me there himself, 

I got dressed for bed and crawled under the covers, thinking about what James said,as I slowly drifted off to sleep, 

                                           Bucky POV 

I when down to the lower floors, after making sure Spencer went back to her room of course, 

"FRIDAY let me know when Spencer wakes up," I said 

"Of course sir," The AI 

If I'm going to keep an eye on her, I'm going to have to make sure I know where she's at, at all times, 

Sure I'm being a little obsessive but it's only until this blows over, 

I enter the interrogation room, where her ex was, 

Beaten to a pulp, Steve stood over him, massaging his knuckles from hitting the guy, 

"Still not talking?" I asked 

"No," Steve said sternly 

Sure Steve is the last person you would expect to give someone who is tied to a chair a beating, but once he heard what this guy did to Spencer and what her injuries consisted of, 

Well lets just say that went out the window, 

As for me, that just made my blood boil, the only times any man should lay their hands on a woman is when they are in bed, proving to her how much she means to him, 

How much she is valued, 

And Spencer needs to know that, you can see in her eyes, she's broken, and this bastard is the cause of it, 

But I'm going to show her what it's like to be loved, and that task starts tomorrow, I thought 

"Let me take a few swings," I said darkly
