Veronica's POV
Sokovian Hydra Base
Flashback...

I wake up to the unfamiliar sound of silence. I know Strucker is out on some business thing today somewhere but he didn't tell us. If he was here today we would already be up and training but since he isn't here, we're not. The person who is running the base today isn't really the type to remember to wake us up usually. So this is reaaaallllyyyy nice.

"Prinţesă." I hear a sleepy voice say. (Princess)

"Mhmpf." I groan into my pillow.

"Dragă." Pietro says softly while shaking me a bit. (Sweetheart)

"SHUT UP PIETRO!" Wanda yells from the bunk across from Tiff and I's. "WE'RE TRYING TO GET AS MUCH SLEEP AS WE CAN WHILE STRUCKER IS GONE!! SO SHUT UP!!!" She snaps.

Wanda is not a morning person.

"AGREED." Tiffany yells from the bunk above me while throwing her only pillow at Piet. "Can I have that back?"

Pietro chuckles slightly while picking up her pillow and giving it back to her.

"Piet." I turn over on my back to look at him. "Come mere." I pull him down to fall on top of me.

"Veronica." He whines falling on top of me.

"Shhh, dragoste." I fix the covers so they're on top of both of us. "Taci și strânge -mă." I start talking in Sokovian (I'm using Romanian). (Shhh, love; Shut up and cuddle with me.)

"Amendaaaa." He wraps one arm around my waist while I wrap an arm around his torso. "Dar numai pentru că te iubesc." I look up and him and smile. (Fineeee; But only because I love you.)

"Niciodată nu mi-ai spus mai înainte." I point out smiling up at him widely. (You never told me that before.)

"A fost asteptata de mult timp" He smiles back and leans his head down a bit to kiss me. "Ai de gând să spui nimic înapoi?" He jokes pulling back from the kiss. (It was long overdue; Are you going to say anything back?)

"I love you too, Pietro." I kiss him again.

"Oh so cute you guys said 'I love you' to each other for the first time, awe." Tiffany mocks. "Now shut the la dracu up." (I'll leave that up to you to google translate(;... )

Her Room
Morning...

I wake up with a body half under me. Which is weird. I'm usually on the way other side of the bed when I hook up with people because I don't want them to hold me down when I skip out in the morning.

I don't remember anything that happened last night. I don't know who this person is under me, where I am, what time it is, and if I'm even in the same country. All I remember is meeting this lovely gay bartender named... Chester? I think it was Chester. Pretty sure it's Chester. Didn't I also tell him to not let me go home with a random guy. WHAT THE HELL MAN! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR DEA---

"Vern." I hear the heavy Sokovian accent grumble in his morning voice interrupting my head rant.

Oh no, did I?

"Vern, are you awake?" Pietro asks.

I nod against his chest.

"How are you feeling?" He starts to stroke my hair.

I shake my head no.

"Want me to get you some aspirin or something?"

I nod my head yes.

Pietro sits up a bit sending me sliding down onto his stomach.

"Here." He hands me some aspirin and water. I sit up and grab the watter bottle from him while he opens the aspirin bottle and shakes two pills out into my hand.

"Thank you." I mumble after I pop the pills and drink the water.

"No problem, dragă." He takes the water away from me and sets it on the side table along with the bottle of aspirin. I lay back down with my arms still around Pietro's torso.

"What time is it?" I question as he lays back down, I put my head back on his chest.

"3 am." He lifts his head up a bit to look at the clock on my dresser across the room.

"What happened last night?" I ask after a bit of silence while playing with a loose thread on his shirt.

"You went out to a bar and me and Tiffany had to go to get you. We found you singing a song at the top of your lungs, kissed me on the corner on my mouth but I know where you aiming, you almost threw up in Stark's car, and we slept together." He sums up.

"H-...How? I still have my clothes on."

"Not like that. You wanted either me or Tiff to sleep in the same bed as you for some reason. Tiff teleported out." He explains. "And apparently you were going to go home with a guy too."

"It's only the second day and I've gotten a DUI, told my father I used to cut, and I ran away because I was feeling depressed again. What the hell kind of Avenger am I?" I shake my head in shame.

"On the first day I was an Avenger I died." Pietro rubs my back. "I don't think your stuff is that bad."

"Thanks, Piet." I chuckle a bit.

"No problem, dragoste." He puts his arm around me and kisses my head. "Do you wanna talk about why you went to the bar?"

"Taci și strânge -mă." I mumble against his chest.

I'ma start adding flashbacks a bit more to understand their backgrounds a bit more.

Also am I adding too much Pietro parts? I feel like I am but I'm not sure. (Tell me in the comments please.)

Next chapter will be Tony-Veronica bonding chapter since it is Tony Stark's Daughter. Maybe add a little Pepper in there too.

Most likely will be updating Avenging|Book 2 tonight too. Along with writing for Avenge or Double Life.
