"Miss Stark?" Jarvis' voice filled the room. Ella mumbled something before turning over in bed, planning on get a few more hours sleep.

"MISS STARK!" Jarvis called again, this time louder. Ella bolted up in bed.

"Wha-?" Ella started

"Miss Potts thought you might need a wake up call for breakfast." The AI explained.

Ella groaned as the curtains began to open, light streaming in through the windows. She shoved the covers away from her body before stumbling to the bathroom to take a shower. Ella was slightly nervous about having breakfast with all the avengers – minus Thor who was still away on Asgard. It would be the first time they would all be in the same room together. Ella chose to wear a pair of jeans along with her brown boots and a white vest top. Sighing at her uncooperative hair she decided to leave her curls free, they reached to just below her shoulders. She quickly added her make-up before making her way to the elevator.

Everyone was already in the kitchen by the time she got there. Pepper was in the kitchen with Tony arguing about the amount of pepper to put on the eggs. Bruce was at the head of the table reading over a file, Ella guessed it was to do with the work him and Tony did in the labs. Steve was sat next to him stirring his coffee. Clint and Natasha were sat on the opposite side of the table, deep in conversation.

"Good Morning." Ella said as she took a seat next to Clint.

"Mini-Stark!" Clint declared, Ella looked at him sceptically – apparently that nickname was sticking.

"Morning." Natasha said giving the brunette a small smile before taking a sip of her drink. Steve smiled at her warmly and Bruce lifted his head from his papers to nod in her direction.

"Great Ella you're up. How about working in the lab with me and Bruce today, I need your help on a new program I am running?" Tony asked as he entered the kitchen with the first two plates, putting them in front of the two assassins.

"Tony! Let the girl have breakfast first!" Pepper chastised him as she set down a plate of eggs in front of Bruce and Steve. Both thanked her politely.

"It's fine Pep," She called to the red head who had disappeared back into the kitchen, "Sure I can do that," She said now addressing Tony.

"No kid, save yourself." Clint muttered next to her. Ella laughed.

"Is it that bad?" She asked quietly.

"You have no idea" Was his simple reply.

"Hey I will have you know that working with me and Bruce is an honour!" Tony announced, pretending to be offended.

"Its fine I have nothing else to do today, I need to explore the city at some point but that can wait." Ella said making a mental note to ask Pepper if she was free to show her around some time.

"I can have Happy take you, he'll show you around." Tony offered

"No thanks driving around in a limo isn't my idea of 'exploring'" Ella replied.

"I'll take you…if you want that is?" Steve spoke up

"Really? That would be great" Pepper just looked at Ella from across the table, giving her a knowing look. Ella ignored it.

"Wait you're going to let Capiscle show you around? I guarantee you will get lost within five minutes of leaving the building." Tony said

"It's not that hard to figure out Tony, besides this tower is big enough to see from miles around. I do actually know my way around New York just fine." Steve argued. Ella was about to cut in, worried about whether this would lead to a fight when Bruce stopped her.

"Don't worry; this is their usual morning routine. When Cap and Tony argue its like there way of saying they love each other."

"Yeah and Cap will walk away if Tony goes too far. The guy has like super self control." Clint added shovelling more eggs onto his plate.

"Alright boys, knock it off!" Natasha said as they continued to fight. Both stopped to like at the assassin. Steve blushed slightly and Tony took a sip of his coffee.

"It pains me to admit it but you might be right Spangles. I mean at least if she gets into trouble you'd be able to get her out of it." Tony sighed.

"Whoa, hold on, trouble? What makes you think I would get into trouble?" Ella asked

"Simply because you're a Stark. That's kind of what we do." Tony explained.

"Stark by name not nature!" Ella argued. All the avengers and Pepper just sat around amused by the banter between the siblings.

"Sorry Mini-Stark but that statement kind of proves you wrong." Clint smirked. Ella blushed at the statement.

"Right I have to get to the office for a meeting, so I will see you guys later." Pepper announced as she stood up giving Tony a peck on the lips before leaving.

"I am so glad you realised she was the right girl for you." Ella sighed smiling at her brother.

"You're one to talk. Your taste in guys sucks." Tony jested

"I resent that comment"

"What ever happened to that guy you were dating? What's his name? Max? Mike?"

"You mean Darren?" Ella asked

"That's the one!"

"Yeah, that didn't work out."

"I rest my case. Right see you guys later, if you need me…ask someone else." Tony replied before leaving the table. Ella guessed he was going to his lab to work on something.

Ella had been in the lab for 4 hours. 4 hours and 8 minutes to be exact. She was going crazy; she loved science as much as the next guy but she needed a break. She had been sat staring at a computer screen for hours and her eyes were starting to hurt. She rubbed them furiously before tapping a few more keys. She needed to get out but every time she tried Tony or Bruce gave her another job.

Bruce was a quiet person and someone Ella instantly looked up to; no one would ever guess this guy could turn into the Hulk. Bruce was one of the nicest people she had ever met and the guy was a genius. Sighing Ella stood up from her computer, feeling her muscles cramp in protest.

"Where are you off to?" Tony asked raising his eyes off the metal he was welding together.

"Getting coffee" Ella replied, anything to give her eyes a break. Tony nodded once before returning to his work. Ella loved her brother but she did wonder how Bruce didn't go stir-crazy cooped up in a lab with him all day.

She exited the lab not really looking where she was going, instead blinking rapidly to try and get more moisture into her eyes. She walked right into a solid structure that she was pretty sure was a wall. That was until she felt two strong muscular arms around her waist, preventing her fall. She looked up to see she was inches away from Steve Rogers who still held her in his arms.

"Uh…Sorry, are you okay?" He asked blushing as he retracted his arms. Ella instantly missed the feeling but pushed the though aside.

"Yeah, it was my fault. I wasn't looking." She explained, "What are you doing down here anyway?" She asked curious as to why the Captain would want to visit the 'Science Bros Domain'.

"Oh, I just wanted to see how you were doing down here. Clint thought you would be half-dead by now." Steve laughed. Ella blushed; he came down there just to see her?

"I think I am the Science Bros next victim." She said causing them both to laugh.

"Lucky for you I have had some experience with rescuing damsels in distress." Steve joked

"Really Captain? What makes you think I couldn't rescue myself?"

"Nothing… I mean you're more than capable of….I just meant…" Steve stammered

"Relax Cap, I'm messing with you." Ella laughed.

"Ella? I need you to run this server!" Tony called out from the lab. Ella wasn't even sure if he knew if she was actually making coffee like she said then she wouldn't be able to hear him.

"Save me!" She muttered to Steve

"We could make a run for it?" He suggested

"We couldn't!" Ella questioned, considering her options. Steve looked behind her to see Tony and Bruce working hard, oblivious to the conversation outside.

"They aren't looking." Steve prompted stretching out his hand for her to take. Ella looked behind her, feeling a bubble of excitement in her stomach. She grabbed his hand and they made a dash for the elevator.
