The team stood around the Asgardians, waiting until the moment they never had to see Loki Laufeyson again.
Elizabeth stood between Steve and Natasha, glaring at the handcuffed man as he disappeared into thin air with Thor at his side.
"Finally," Elizabeth sighed, adjusting her red leather jacket.
"Good riddance," Steve agreed.
"Don't miss me too much when I'm gone," Tony called, climbing into a sports car with Bruce.
"Believe me, I don't think they will," Bruce scoffed, laughing.
"I give you a ride and this is how you treat me?" Tony asked in feigned offense.
Bruce just shook his head laughing. The pair sped off over the hill, disappearing.
Natasha and Clint walked over to a sleek, black car, ready to head back to headquarters. They were being sent on another mission later that night. Elizabeth leaned against the car door, her head in the window.
"No rest for the weary?" Elizabeth asked, chuckling softly.
"Never," Clint scoffed, laughing.
"Take care of yourselves out there," Elizabeth sighed, wishing her friends good luck.
"We always do," Natasha chimed in. Elizabeth smiled gently.
"Don't have sex with Steve until I get back. I won't be able to get the details while I'm gone," Natasha said, speeding away before Elizabeth could open her mouth to speak. She just stood there with her mouth agape in shock.
"Mind if I catch a ride, Rogers?" Elizabeth asked, turning to face Steve.
"Climb aboard, Miss Marks," Steve said, waving his hand over the motorcycle. Elizabeth hopped on behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist, holding on tight.
"Where to?" Steve asked.
"My place is in Midtown East. I'm on 2nd," Elizabeth explained.
"Yes, ma'am," Steve said, revving the engine and taking off down the street towards Elizabeth's apartment.

SHIELD had put Elizabeth up in a nice apartment in Midtown when started living in New York full time. Once she started working for the agency, they wanted to make sure she was comfortable. Fury said that he didn't want her cooped up in the headquarters. He didn't want SHIELD to remind her of HYDRA. It was the first thing that she'd ever owned and she sure as hell was proud of it.
