And here is chapter seven, thank you all for the reviews and story alerts/favorites…. Oh and I don't own Avengers!

Groaning, Bruce woke up in his bed, eyes unable to adjust to the bright lights all around him, yep he had a bit of a hangover, trudging to his bathroom to wash up, he replayed the events from last night. Did he really go to Mira in the middle of the night? A part of him hoped not, while something in him liked the exchange. After slipping on his shirt and starting to button it, he made his way to the lab, passing Tony wearing sunglasses and nursing what looked like coffee.

Deciding to take a pit stop for some food and tea, he headed to one of the kitchens on the ship, going through the line and picking the less greasy and sweet options, hoping a nice egg and toast would settle.

"If it isn't sleeping beauty," Bruce couldn't keep the grin off his face at the sound of her teasing voice, "I'm glad to see you awake and intact, I was a bit worried when you left my room, checked up on you earlier this morning."

"Oh? You checked up on me? I didn't say or do anything stupid, did I?"

"Nope, you were passed out, so I left you alone," Mira scooted over on the bench, making room for him to sit.

"I'm glad, sorry about last night," Bruce tried to keep the grin off his face as Mira laughed softly.

"I told you it was fine, stop worrying about what everyone else thinks," Mira smiled softly, taking a bite of her bagel and a quick sip of juice, "Tony was the annoying one anyway, he walked the halls singing Billy Squire songs."

"Sorry about that, he decided that we need to get drunk so we could talk about our feelings," Bruce rubbed his face tiredly.

"Oh? Well, that doesn't surprise me, he doesn't seem like a touchy feely kind of guy," Mira smirked as she polished off what looked like a scone.

"Yeah, he responds by making fun of you," Bruce smiled.

"Seems about right, so I requested to go visit the children one last time before or whole battle begins, I was wondering if you'd like a break from the grindstone."

"You want me to go visit that orphanage with you?" Bruce looked a bit shocked, mostly from the fact Fury would agree to let her and him have any time off.

"I may have pulled some strings," Mira looked sheepish, "but it will only be for lunch and we'd be back before long, Tony can take over for a bit and I'm not needed at the moment, Fury agreed after the last trying episode I deserved a little break before I jumped back on that horse."

"You're going to try and talk to Loki again? Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"Not really, but someone has to wear him down, make it so we can catch him off guard. Now I know how he works, I can ready my defenses."

"I suppose, if you think you can handle it," Bruce trailed off, "so your idea of recharging is to go visit a bunch of kids?"

"Yeah, they are surprisingly intuitive, they can make people feel good as soon as you step through the door," Mira gathered her empty plates, Bruce following suit as they left it at a bar filled with them.

"I would love to join you, then," Bruce grinned as Mira hugged him, bouncing around excitedly.

"Oh they'll love you, just you wait, and the sisters will cook us some lunch and then we'll come back to the excitement of the helicarrier," Mira rambled as she led him to a helicopter that would distribute them at the local air strip, where a car picked them up, Mira the whole trip telling Bruce of the kids and nuns who worked there and sharing a few stories on her own time there. Bruce laughing along with her as she revealed to him how wonderful she really was, the gentle, kind woman he knew she was coming out in the way her eyes sparkled as she talked of the children.

AN:/Hope you enjoyed the story, Reviews would be nice! Hopefully the updates can keep coming to me.
