Nineteen year old Kelly Rogers awoke with a groan and looked around her spotless room. It was quiet, she stood and walked out, looking around the floor of Stark Tower that she shared with her father.

"Daddy?" She called, "Dad?"

"The Avengers were called away on a mission, Miss Rogers," JARVIS stated.

"I see, thank you, JARVIS," she said as she pressed the call button for the elevator.

"The others are up and in the dining room."

"Thank you," she said again, stepping onto the elevator and pressed the button for the dining room.

The others were all sitting around the dining room, waiting for Kelly.

"Can't believe they left right before Christmas," Rayna Banner muttered.

Philip Barton scoffed, "Like they'd spend it with us anyway."

"They would!" Eddie Stark exclaimed, "Well...My mom and Aunt Jane would at least."

They began arguing about if their parents would spend time with them or not. Ignoring what JARVIS said to try and calm them down. Kelly walked in and looked around at all the chaos. She watched them for a bit, leaning against the wall. It was only when she saw the green tint appearing on Rayna did she speak up.

"THAT IS ENOUGH!" She shouted, "Stop acting like children."

The three turned and looked over at her. Philip stood and rubbed the back of his neck. A lopsided smile that mirrored Clint's perfectly appeared on his neck.

"Mornin' Kel," he smiled,"Sleep well?"

"Don't change the subject Barton. It's almost Christmas, can't we all just get along and stop asking and fighting about our parents?"

"Yeah," he sighed, "We'll all behave. Right guys?"

"Right," Rayna replied.

Eddie nodded and sat down, "Sorry Kelly."

She sighed and looked around the dining room. It was a mess, breakfast was all over the floor and the table was soaked in coffee, creamer and orange juice.

"I'm gonna go for a run. Eat off the floor or order something I don't care," Kelly said before walking out and heading back up to her room. She was tired of being in charge and making sure went smoothly at the Tower while their parents were away. It was even harder now that they were older, Pepper spent more time at the office and Jane at the lab or in Asgard with Thor.

Once she was changed and ready for her run, she left. Heading down to the nearest subway and leaving all her worries and fears behind her.
