Hi! Yeah so this is my First story on here
but please enjoy and leave some nice reviews :D
I dont own anything related to Marvel. But i do own Eleanor~ ;D
The click of heels echoed as a slender, white woman with golden brunette hair just below her cheeks walked down an eerily barren hallway to one of the labratories on the giant aircraft that belonged to none other than S.H.E.I.L.D, a secret military law-enforcement agency. S.H.E.I.L.D stood for, Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate. The woman shook her head with a sigh at the lack of people passing through the hallway. "He's not a bad guy.." she muttered to herself as she made her way to the lab at a leasurely pase while she watched a random agent fast walk past the lab and then past her, they obviously didnt want to be in that hallway at that time, which caused Her to glare at them until they were out of her sight.
The door to the Lab hissed open after she punched in the code on the keypad and she saw a middle aged man with short, wavy, volumenous brown hair that was starting to grey on the sides, hunched over a Keyboard as he leaned closer to the high-tech, see through screen infront of him, squinting his chocolate brown eyes behind the glasses that rested on his nose. The man looked up at the sound of the door opening, looking to see who had walked into the lab."Oh, hello Miss Emerson." The man said softly as he got a good look at the woman before him who was wearing a black pencil skirt, purple button up blouse, black heels and Nylon stockings that went up past the pencil skirt to her thighs.
"Good evening Dr. Banner." Eleanor Emerson greeted with a kind smile as the door closed behind her once she was in the lab. Eleanor was one of S.H.E.I.L.D's top scientists and had been given the task to work with Doctor Bruce Banner on finding Alternate forms of energy since the tessaract had been taken back to Asgard.
_3 days earlier_
" Ms. Emerson." Director Fury addressed the female, brunette scientist infront of him, "Ever since the teseract was taken back by Thor we have been trying to look for alternate forms of clean energy, and since Stark is the only one with clean energy.. and won't sharehow he got it with us," the director said, sound rather irritated, not furious..Fury wasnt furious right now. "we will have to figure it out on our own. You are one of our top Fuel cell engineers and will be working with Doctor Bruce Banner on the task," as said doctor was mentioned he happened to walk into the room, Fury aknowledged him with a slight turn of his head before looking back at Eleanor, "Understood, Ms. Emerson?"
Eleanor gave a swift nod of her head. "Yes, Sir." with that Director Fury waved a hand to dismiss the two intelectuals who walked out the door. Eleanor smiled and once out the door she held her hand out to Bruce with a smile. "Nice to meet you Dr. Banner."
Bruce visably hesitated before he shook her hand with a gentle grip, smiling slightly. "Nice to meet you too, Miss Emerson." Eleanor shook his hand a moment longer before letting go, which Bruce did as well. "I Uh.. forgot where the lab was, do you mind?"
Eleanor blinked a moment before she smiled and gestured with a hand down the hallway. "Of course. This way Dr. Banner. We've had a few upgrades since the last time you were here." she said with a smile that was between a excited smile and amused grin.
_*end flashback*_
When she smiled at him Bruce's heart rate had quickend slightly, causing 'the other guy' to stir a little. Bruce had gotten so used to people keeping their distance from him or running away once they payed witness to his 'condition' that this womans kind smiles towards him and how she didnt seem to care if he got worked up he turned into a 'raging green monster, caught him off gaurd. Bruce took a few deeps breaths as he he tried to distract himself with his work and lower his heart rate back to normal.
Eleanor moved to her work area a ways away from bruce, setting her bag on an empty space. "How are You this evening, any progress while i was gone to deliver a report of our progress to Director Fury?" the golden brunette asked as she turned to face Bruce, leaning her rear against the table edge slightly.
Bruce glanced over at her a moment before looking back at the translucent screen infront of him, tapping a few things on it. "Im fine. Unfortunetly No, This is going to be harder than i hand first thought." Bruce said in his usual soft voice, like he was behind so careful not to raise his voice in any way. The good doctor didnt notice as Eleanor walked over to him, getting a good look at his eyes, which had huge bags under them.
"By the way, when did you last eat and or sleep, Dr. Banner?" Eleanor asked in a firm voice.
Bruce looked up just in time to see how close the female scientist was to him as she leaned her rear against The table he was at. Bruce quickly looked away as he could feel a faint warmth on his cheeks, trying to steady his heart rate once again as he stared at the screen. "I.. about two days.." he admitted, unable to think of a lie with the woman so close.
Eleanor sighed and pushed herself off the table. "What do you want?" this earned a confused glance from Bruce as he tried to distract himself with his work. "What do you want to eat?" she clarified for the good doctor.
Eleanor made her way down to the cafeteria of the huge aircraft. She didn't know what Bruce liked to eat because he had requested just coffee.. But Eleanor wouldn't settle for that! She was going to make sure The good doctor got the proper nutrision. When Eleanor entered the cafeteria there weren't many people there, considering it was in between meals. So Eleanor took a good chunk of time to make her and Bruce some proper meals.
The golden brunette walked the way back to the still barren hallway to the lab with two trays of food, placed on each was a fruit salad, a regular salad, a variety of dressing packets on the side,The main course was a Veggie burger on a whole grain bun for a good amount of protein, she had read Bruce's file and found he was a Vegetarian, so she made sure the meal had no animal products of any kind. Eleanor had also decided to switch out Bruce'ss request for coffee and got him a cup of hot green tea. Once Eleanor got to the lab she looked down at the keypad and gave it a slight glare before tapping the door with her foot carefully so she didn't loose her balance and fall while holding the food. She watched as bruce looked up from his work at the sound of the tapping of her foot on the door and fast walked over to the door quickly and stood there as it opened, the damn thing was automatic from the inside only..
Bruce watched the woman walk into the lab, walk over to their tables and set the trays of food on each. Doctor Banner followed soon after with a surprised exspression at the tray of food on his table. " I said just coffee was fine.. you didnt have to go to all this trouble." he said with a sheepish exspression as he looked at all was on the tray.
Eleanor had picked up a grape fromt he fruit salad and popped it into her mouth as she listened to Bruce talk. She quickly chewed and swallwoed the grape before she replied. "Dr. Banner, you have had only coffee for the past two days i assume. You body needs this meal. Now, eat up." While talking Eleanor had sat down in her chair at her table, still smiling up at Bruce. "Oh and i also replaced your coffee request with some tea. I hope you don't mind." Bruce had sat down as well and was getting ready to take a sip of the cup of tea he had picked up before looking at Eleanor with a slight, rather adorable, smile and saying "Its Alright, I actually enjoy tea more than coffee.. but tea doesnt help me stay up." Eleanor smiled a little wider before she started to eat her food, glancing up one more to make sure Bruce had started eating before she payed full attention to her food.
After a while of eating in comfortable silence the two Geniuses finished at relatively the same time, Eleanor maybe a minute or two after Bruce. She got up from her table, grabbing her tray before walking over to Bruce's table and asking politely, "Are you done?" Bruce gave a simple nod as Eleanor started to stack the dishes on top of each other before placing the empty tray under the one filled with dishes. Eleanor moved and placed the tray and plates on an empty table before walking back over to her table.
What Bruce said next caught her a little off gaurd. "Why arent you afraid of me..?" Bruce said quietly as he rubbed his thumb against his cup of tea while watching the liquid move slightly in the cup.
Eleanor turned to look at Bruce and smiled, even though he still wasnt looking at her. "Why should I be afraid of you?" She asked, honestly wondering that. Bruce glanced up at her with those big brown eyes, looking rather down, and genuinely confused. "The other guy..?" Eleanor blinked, mouth forming an 'o' shape before she smiled again. "The h- The other guy, hasent made an appearance Ever since the Fight in midtown against loki. You have done a fine job of keeping in control, Dr. Banner. And also.. I trust you."
The last three words were said a little quieter but Bruce could still hear them and they made his brown eyes widen slightly. If he wasnt tan Bruce would have guessed Eleanor saw him blush slightly, but since he was tan.. he hope he was safe. "I..." The doctor was at a loss of words, so he said the only thing he could put into a sentence. "Thank you, Miss Emerson."
Eleanor smiled and said "Eleanor. You can call me by my first name if you want, Dr. Banner."
Bruce smiled slightly and said. "Okay, Eleanor. And you can call me by my first name too."
Eleanor smiled wider. "Okay, Bruce."
