chapter v.
(pre-captain america: the winter soldier)
you spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day

TRIGGER WARNINGS
anxiety, abuse
Dinner was becoming more casual as the days passed by. I started talking more to them all. Except for Natasha. And I kind of had accepted that. If she didn't want anything to do with me, I didn't want anything to do with her.
Tonight, was no difference..
''Oh, I almost forgot Lee'' Tony started, his mouth still full of food, him earning a quick hit at his arm from Pepper, her giving him a playful smile.
''You'll be all alone again at the tower tomorrow..'' His eyes sending me a pitiful look.''Tony!'' Pepper sent him a hit again. He hummed a loud 'what?' at her. Her eyes looking at me now again.
''Bruce will be here all day,'' She told me with a big smile.
''So, she won't be all alone.'' Her eyes finding Tony again, giving him a scolding look.''He'll just be down at the lab the entire day,'' Tony started, picking up a piece of meat with his fork.
''You won't even notice him..'' He said as he put the meat into his mouth, he looked up at me again, giving me little wink, making me giggle to myself.
I then saw the small smirk he had on his lips, a typical Tony Stark face.''Honey, I'll come around dinner time and we can have a girls night.'' She said as she took a piece of tomato into her mouth, giving me a small smile.
They all quickly began with new conversations. Mostly Clint and Natasha talking, sometimes Steve would join in. Tony would playfully pick on Pepper, and Bruce would join in a bit on every conversation.
I would usually be a part of their conversations, whether the topic was about missions or just personal business. But I had a weird feeling today. The last couple of days had been amazing. I had no nightmares; I would spend a lot of time with Tony and Steve.
