Flashing fluorescent lights, loud rumbling music and crowds of people. There was no doubt that this was a party hosted by Tony Stark. But then there was a certain level of class to it that Steve had to begrudgingly tip his imaginary hat to. Moving through the hordes of people he muttered a few " Excuse me ma'ams" and "Pardon me Son's"
He settled down in a seat next to his newer friend
Sam Wilson. The man smiled and poured him a glass of the half empty bourbon bottle that rested in the middle of the VIP table. ' Hey man.' Steve smiled at the greeting. ' Hi.' they chatted for a while and mingled with their friends.
The party was in full swing when the two sisters walked in. Marilyn disappeared through the crowd of people completely taken by the beat of the music, her voluptuous body earning her many partners.
Dorthy stumbled her way through the crowd of bustling and nudging people to the bar where Natasha juggled drink orders. Pulling up her sleeves Dorthy stepped behind the bar. ' Need any help?! One woman can't man here by her lonesome.' Natasha raised an eyebrow. ' I've been doing just fine Dorthy. What's the matter, why are you not out there having fun?!' The girl smiled. ' Who said this isn't of fun. All the best and worst conversations happen in and around the bar.' The older woman stared blankly and Dorthy groaned ' It's true.' Natasha swayed her hand nonchalantly ' And the real reason. ' The youngest Fury cringed and scratched at her arm ' Big crowds of sweaty drunken probably horny people. It's a vicious sea out there and I am no Jason to go between crashing rocks. Plus with the strobing lights it's probably best I not go out there. '
' Well sorry kid but if your gonna help me out I'm going to need for you to go to the VIP lounge and give the guys their drinks. That means going through those "crashing rocks " and making it, which we both know you could do. ' Dorthy snorted ' Not in these heels. They're not shock resistant like my other shoes. I'd go down harder and more dramatically than Goliath.' Natasha shook her head slowly. ' Get up there missy.' Sighing Dorthy took the tray of drinks from behind the bar and slowly made her way to the top of the hall where the VIP lounge was located.
There was a little spillage on the tray when she finally made it to the top of the stairs, the majority of the rest was splattered across her front, which only made her sizable cleavage sticky and uncomfortable. Stomping to the table she put down the tray ' Here are your drinks and here's the bottle so don't think i'm coming back up here again.' she hissed wiggling uncomfortably in all her sticky glory. There was a low cat call and Dorthy frowned looking over in the direction it had come from. Tony Stark smiled innocently. ' If I was twenty years younger and not in a very commited relationship….well you catch my drift. Who knew under all those hoodies and baggy trousers you were hiding that! ' He paused for a moment realising what he had said and seeing the horrified look on Dorthy and slightly pissed off one on Pepper he cleared his throat. ' I mean ...Well hello to you Miss Fury. You clean up good kid.' Clint snorted and slapped Tony on the back. ' Nice save man.'
Further down the room Steve had not even noticed the arrival of his young friend. He had a habit of blanking out the background noise when the conversation just wasn't that interesting and he had no reason to pay attention. It wasn't until Sam shifted in his seat and stood up that he started to pay the group any specific mind. ' Polka Dot Dotty while I live and breathe! I haven't seen you since the Island, Is that really you?! You look so different.' The young Fury's face ashened and she gave a dry laugh cough. ' Sam...What are you doing here?!Why are you here?!..bye!' she squeaked and made a mad dash down to the bar where she promptly hid. It was obvious the conversation that was going to occur now that they had met again after so long and in front of Clint"Gossip Queen Extraordinaire" Barton to boot. Dorthy decided she would not be present for the embarassing reveal. Sam snorted and sat back down. ' Just like the old days.' Steve opened his mouth to speak but Thor who had for most of the night been busy chewing on several different assortments of meat spoke out first. ' Old days?!' The man nodded ' Yeah, I used to live on the same island as Dorthy and her family.'
It was then that it clicked to Clint just where he had met this man before. For months it had been bothering him but now he knew and it was hilarious. ' Oh no way! Your that kid I asked about liking Dorthy! Hahaha, no wonder she ran out of here like the devil himself was on her heels.' There were very few things that made Hawkeye genuinely smile and laugh these days and teasing and tormenting his honorary baby sister was one of them. It was his right and brotherly duty damn it and he had sooo much to catch up on. ' So you never did give me an answer, care to now?!' The Captain remained silent and his eyes narrowed ever so slightly but not enough for Bruce to have not noticed as he surveyed the room of half drunk people from his seat next to Tony. Wilson shook his head with a grin. ' No. No way am I going to do that.' Steve bit down on his tongue. ' Go ahead.' he said abruptly barely concealing his irritation. ' You should just get on and say it. He won't give up until you do.' There was a certain level of raised eyebrows that now resided in the room. What exactly had crawled up in his ass. Was the Captain finally getting drunk? Sam frowned. ' Okkkk, well yeah I had liked her but she was always so shy around me that whenever I tried to talk to her she either ran away or fainted. Then like Clint said he did ask me if I had liked Dorthy but I was called away by one of the island officials and then I was transferred to main land America soo, thats about it.'
Steve stood abruptly 'Right ok' and left the room in a irritated huff. Sam frowned.
'Did I say something wrong?!' The inhabitances of the room looked around at eachother and smiled, Tony more than anyone. 'No man, you said just the right thing. Like Goldilocks or something.'
-Hell Hath No Fury-
OK SO THAT WAS JUST A SILLY CHAPTER. I'M SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG BUT TO BE HONEST MY BRAIN WAS ON MELT DOWN AND I COULD ONLY WRITE PIECE AFTER PIECE WHEN I FOUND ANY SORT OF INSPIRATION. I PROMISE I'LL BE QUICKER WITH THE NEXT ONE.
