It had been three days since Callista had moved in to live with the Avengers and all was going smoothly. She was adapting well to her new surroundings and all the new people in her surroundings. Her room had promptly been redecorated to a little girls' dream thanks to Tony, and she was slightly happier than she was when she arrived. When she discovered Jarvis instead of being frightened she was ecstatic and had made a friend of him….if it is possible to do so.

Now on one particular morning Callista had decided she was going to watch a movie and had talked to Jarvis and told him to play all the Disney Princess movies. So thinking that food for her movies would be good she went into the kitchen and happened upon several boxes of pop-tarts tucked away in the corner of a low cabinet. Grinning at her marvelous discovery Lista hurried into the Living room and began to watch her movies and eat pop-tarts.

She wasn't very far into the first movie when thunder suddenly shook the tower. Once the booming sound stopped Lista stopped shaking in fear and turned back toward her movie and pop-tarts. Everything was going smoothly again for the little girl when she heard a loud voice yelling in the kitchen.

"MAN OF IRON, WHERE ARE MY POPS OF TART! IF YOU HAVE STOLEN THEM, YOU WILL SUFFER MY WRATH!"

Lista huddled against the couch as the loud voice came closer toward the living room. When Thor came barging into the room with a furious look on his face it caused her to shake in fear.

"I-I'm s-sorry. I w-was hungry, and the pop-tarts are s-so good Mr." Lista said as her lip started to quiver. One glance at her face was all it took for all anger to leave the face of Thor. Gently he sat his hammer beside the living room door and slowly walked over to the couch and sat beside her.

"I am sorry to have scared you little maiden. I am Thor Odinson, it is a pleasure to meet you." Thor said talking to her in a gentle tone.

"It's okay. I understand why you'd be upset 'bout your poptarts being gone, they're so yummy!"

"Yes, they are little maiden. What is your name little one?"

"Cal-lis-ssta Roberts…just call me Lista. Mr. Thor will you watch my princess movies with me?" Callista pleaded looking at him with her bright green eyes.

"Only if you share your pop-tarts with me Lady Callista."

"Of course I'll share! It's not nice to keep them all to myself." She replied looking at Thor with crumbs covering her cheeks and lips. So Thor settled down beside her and they began watching all of the Disney Princess movies and eat eight boxes of pop-tarts in-between the both of them. By the time they had finished all of the Disney movies it was late in the evening and Callista and Thor were both asleep on the couch.

The rest of the Avengers couldn't resist snapping pictures of the pair when they entered the living room. It had to be one of the most adorable and unusual sights, Thor was asleep setting upright with Callista curled up against his chest, the huge Asgardian had one arm wrapped around Callista and his other hand was holding an empty pop tart box.

"Well it looks like Lista and Thor bonded over poptarts and movies." Tony said with a smirk as he snapped a picture and sent it to Fury.

"She's so sweet." Natasha said as she moved to get the child and take her to bed.

"Someone slap me! Did the Black Widow just call something sweet?"

"Watch it Stark or you might not be able to move tomorrow." Natasha replied coldly as she moved Thor's arm and scooped Lista up into her arms. Then she left the living room and headed toward Lista's bedroom.

"This is the perfect opportunity to prank Point Break!" Tony yelled joyfully as he ran toward the kitchen.

"Tony, not now, Natasha just took Callista to bed! If you wake Thor with your pranks you'll wake her up." Steve said in a stern voice.

"Get a life Capsicle! You need to loosen up Rogers, have some fun!" Tony replied as he opened a cabinet and grabbed a bottle of olive oil. Steve made a grab for the bottle as Tony ran back into the living room. The resident billionaire snuck over to Thor's hammer and then liberally rubbed the handle with olive oil.

"You do know he's going to kill you." Bruce told Tony quietly as he finished oiling down the hammer.

"Only if he can catch me."

"Better pray Lista is nearby to stop him." Clint said with a smirk as he left the room.

"Good point Katniss….Bruce I'm sleeping on the couch in Lista's room."

"No you are not. She is sound asleep and you will not wake her Stark." Natasha said coldly as she stepped from the shadows.

"Come on it won't do any harm Nat."

"Don't Nat me. She is asleep and you won't be going in there Stark." She replied as she seemingly pulled a knife from thin air.

"Okay, okay Romanoff! I get the picture. Goodness, talk about Mamma spider." Tony huffed as he left the room.

"She grows on you doesn't she Natasha?" Bruce asked with a slight smile.

"Yes, she does at that Bruce."

"It's frightening. Frightening to know we're raising a kid. A monster, a billionaire with complexes, an Asgardian prince, a super soldier, and two S.H.E.I.L.D. agents, are raising a five year old girl."

"That's all true except a monster isn't part of that group. Bruce Banner is the other guy is as much a part of you. Both of them are helping. Think on that Bruce." And with that Natasha slipped back into the shadows and was gone, leaving Bruce to ponder her words. The days to come would be an interesting experience for everyone and a new challenge would present itself. But at the moment all was quiet on the home front and Bruce couldn't be happier about that. Hopefully everything would stay like that.
