None of them had ever been in Wakanda but they weren't disappointed. It was an amazing place, in fact they understood why for most countries it remained a mystery, and after all it was a sacred place for its people.
They were received by King T'Challa himself.
"Your highness" Steve was the first to greet him, behind him Sam, Wanda and Bucky vowed awkwardly.
"Welcome" he told them "and please call me T'Challa"
Steve nodded "Thanks for receiving us"
He smiled and looked at Barnes "It's the least I can do to repay you for our…incident"
Bucky smiled "Don't mention it"
Sam cleared his throat "No hard feelings, right?"
The King smirked "Don't worry I don't dwell on things"
"I also apologize" Wanda added
T'Challa nodded "Let's start fresh, shall we?"
"Of course" Rogers agreed
After that he asked them to follow him inside the palace. If the exterior of the building was beautiful, the interior was breath taking, it was old but extremely well preserved, and its stone walls were decorated with banners of the royalty, ancient writing and symbols.
"It's beautiful" Wanda muttered without having realized she had said it out loud
"It is" the King agreed with a smile "ever since the meteorite hit this place our people built the civilization. Every stone, every wall tells the story of the origin of the country and its people"
They continued walking and going up and down the stairs with a touristic kind of visit until they reached the laboratories. Steve had once heard that Wakanda was a very advanced country in technology, but he had never imagined to see a place like that, he would even dare to say that it was more impressive than Tony's lab, sure he'd probably be able to do duplicate the whole place.
T'Challa suddenly stopped in front of a man with a lab coat; he turned to his guests "I would like you all to meet doctor Balewa. He is one of the experts in neurology and psychoanalysis in the whole world"
"It's a pleasure to meet you" the doctor told them and shook all of their hands, then looked at Bucky "Mr. Barnes, I will be working with you to correct your condition, I can't promise anything more than my full commitment towards you, we'll overcome it"
Barnes smiled "Thank you doctor Balewa, it will be my pleasure"
T'Challa then cleared his throat "I must go now to attend some business but my assistant Zaire will take you to your rooms so you can rest" before he could leave Sam took a step forward, he now felt like an idiot for not having wanted to trust him
"Thank you for everything" he told him once more
"It's nothing really" The King answered

Tony Stark cursed under his breath. His day wasn't going so great.
He stood in front of a ridiculous small mirror trying to shave with some cheap razor someone had left, it was new but also pretty crappy, he had already cut himself twice, great now he looked like he had just fought an angry cat. In addition to that Vision had set the stereo to maximum volume with the song "What a wonderful world"
"Damn him and his stupid optimism" he said to his reflection.
But on the contrary, Vision was feeling quite odd, he would even dare to say he was…sad. It hadn't even been a week and he missed his team mates deeply.
At that hour in the morning Steve would have been up preparing an incredible amount of toast, Natasha would have made fun of him and stole a piece, Sam on the contrary would have been offended by the lack of "a real breakfast" and would have begun making eggs or pancakes, Wanda would have offered her help and set the table, and Vision, well he would have made coffee for everyone throwing the coffee grounds on the disposal.
"Vision?" Tony called him
The humanoid stood up from the couch and lowered the volume of the music "Yes?"
Tony shook his head and sat on the couch in front of him "I was only checking if you were here, sit"
Vision nodded and sat down again
Stark finally sighed and looked down for a few seconds, he looked like he could use some good sleep.
"I know I have been an incredible jerk to you" he began saying "after all you are the only one here, and I'm…. it's just that this…" he stopped not because he didn't trust Vision, but because for the first time in his life he didn't have any words to describe how he felt. In first place the love of his life was no longer in a relationship with him, he told everyone he was okay but he wasn't, he would never be okay if Pepper wasn't by his side. Secondly the only people that he considered as friends were gone and they hated him, his best friend could no longer walk and it was his fault and thirdly he was also still injured from the fight. In a few words everything had gone to hell pretty quickly.
"Don't apologize" Vision interrupted "this must be very difficult for you and I understand it"
Tony nodded "Thanks, what about you?"
"I am adapting" he answered
Stark snorted "really? What about your broken heart?"
Vision frowned for a second "I don't know what you mean"
Tony smiled "Forget that I mention it, anyway thanks for letting me stay here"
"This is after all practically yours" the humanoid said "besides company is good, for both of us I think"
"Yeah"
Vision cleared his throat "What happened to your face?"
The billionaire chuckled "Cheap razors. Now get ready, we have a meeting in 20 minutes"
I hope you liked it! Please review and leave suggestions! I always answer, maybe not right away but pretty fast…sorry for the short chapter but I promise two chapters for next time that I update! :) Also I'm sorry for any grammatical mistake
