Wilson wanders down the hallway peeking in various rooms as she passes. She's only been to the compound a handful of times, but it's usually not this quiet. She reaches the end of the hallway and sees a familiar face moving around in the open kitchen area.
"Hey," She greets Stark as she walks closer, "Where is everyone?"
"Hey, you," he smiles to her, "Um…let's see, Barton, Romanoff, Barnes, and Wilson are in Chechnya. Vision and Wanda have the weekend off and Banner is working on a project."
"So, I'm here for nothing?" She questions him, picking up an apple from the bowl on the bar.
Stark had suggested she start coming to the compound on the first weekend of every month for training and this was her third trip.
"Not nothing," he replies, "I'm here, aren't I?"
"You're going to train me?" She lifts an eyebrow suspiciously.
"I haven't planned our agenda yet, but," he shrugs his shoulders as she takes a bite from the apple, "we might skip the gym this weekend."
"Are you scared of me?" She questions him playfully.
"No," he remarks with a smirk, "maybe a little."
"Boss," F.R.I.D.A.Y.'s voice comes through the sound system, "Captain Roger's is requesting your presence in his office."
"On my way," Stark responds to the AI, then tilts his head for Lexi to follow him.
Steve is standing behind his desk when Stark and Lexi enter the room and he looks surprised by the hunter's presence, "Wilson."
She gives a wave of her hand before she takes another bite from her apple and he continues, "Tony, we just received word on a shipment of vibranium coming into Boston."
"When?" Stark questions him, taking the file folder Rogers offers.
"Tonight," he replies.
"Ooohhh," Lexi sounds intrigued as she leans over to peek at the contents of the folder Stark's flipping through, "a mission?"
"No," Steve says sternly.
"Okay then," she responds curtly, patting Tony on the shoulder, "See you next month."
"Hang on," he begins, looking at Steve with a raised eyebrow, "I mean, it's just an arms deal, we can practically do those with our eyes closed."
"Tony," Steve begins.
"You've been saying you wanted to get me in the field," Lexi adds a little too enthusiastically, the idea of going on a mission instead of being stuck in the compound sounds more appealing to her.
"I have," Stark says.
"And who better to be in the field with than Iron Man," she smiles, go for the egos, "and Captain America. I mean, you are the best of the best, right?"
The two men share a glance and Steve sighs visibly, knowing he's lost this fight and gives Stark a nod of approval. Tony looks over at Lexi with a half-smile, "Well Kimmy…suit up."
"You do know that's not my name," she takes another small bite from her apple, then looks down at the dark ripped jeans and the faded purple Rolling Stones t-shirt she's in, "and I'll stick with what I'm wearing."
"I don't think so," Stark replies.
"Well I'm not wearing a bright blue spangled outfit like Captain Fabulous," Lexi retorts glancing over at Rogers.
The laugh Tony chokes on causes Steve to give them both an unimpressed look as Tony states, "No, I'm sure I have something…black…bad ass…just your size."
She rolls her eyes as she turns to exit the office, "Of course you do."
