Note: I don't own any of the Marvel characters mentioned in this fanfic. I honestly wish I did but I don't. This is the story of my 8 year old OC Lilly Barnes-Rogers. It's in Lilly's POV.

I run around the city, looking for someone who'll stop and help me, but no one stops, no one helps. I stop outside a cafe and pull off my glasses to wipe away the tears in my eyes before replacing them on my face and going inside. I attempt to say "Please can someone help me." but it comes out in a small whisper. It seems to grab the attention of the barista as she comes over to me and asks "Hey Hun, are you lost?" I shake my head and stutter out "I n-need someone to-to help. M-my mother is-is sick and I-I don't know whe-where to g-g-go." I blink hard trying not to cry, and the barista says "You need to try and talk to a doctor Hun, I'm unable to help much but here." She fished $10 out of the tips jar and passed it to me. "Th-thank you m-miss." I stutter and leave the cafe in defeat.

I lean on the wall outside and take off my glasses to wipe away my tears again. Is no one going to help? A sort of tall figure comes up to me and I put my glasses on rapidly, it's someone from the cafe. He says "Uh, hey kid..." and gives me a reassuring smile. "H-hey sir wha-what do you n-need?" I ask, absolutely terrified despite his smile. He replies, "I-uh heard what you said to the barista. Your mom's sick?" Is he going to help? Please help. I nod and he says "Well I'm not a doctor but I may be able to help." I saw him bite the inside of his cheek but I could tell my face would have lit up as I say "Really? You'd help? I don't have any money to pay you, but this." I offer the $10 to him but he shakes his head and says, smiling "You don't have to pay me, ok doll? I'm just gonna call my friend." He pulls out a flip phone and puts in a few numbers then says down the line "Hey Stevie, can you help me out with something?"

A note from me (idk how to

do the line break yet):

Hi whoever finds this fanfic, it's only my second fanfic so it's not that great. There'll be some stucky in the next chapter as well as a slight hint at brutasha. Please review and tell me how I can make it better.
