This is not going to end well.

That was what Camille had been saying all month as the Avengers had prepared for the Holidays, but this time Camille was certain that something would go wrong.

The annual S.H.I.E.L.D holiday party was tonight and that meant shake hands, say polite stuff, laugh with coworkers who you hate, etcetera. She had made list of fears for each Avenger and written it down on her clipboard.

Tony: Get drunk and do something stupid and embarrass us all and potentially cause world war 3.

Steve: Get overwhelmed and have a panic attack during a speech and leave the stage in tears. (That has happened before.)

Bruce: One word. Hulk.

Natasha: A man will try to hit on her and she will break his bones and potentially his soul.

Clint: Has a tendency to join the fight. Any fight.

Thor: He's Thor. He'll think of something stupid to do.

Camille was determined to not let any of these things happen. But in order to make everything to be perfect, she had to start prepping.

"TONY!" She ran through the halls of the Avengers tower Causing quite a commotion. "GET IN THE VAN THIS INSTANT!" They were on their way to go clothes shopping but Tony was being... How do you put it kindly... a pill. She skidded to a stop and saw Tony frantically pushing the close button on the elevator. "Oh no you don't." She dragged him between the doors by his ear.

"Ow Ow Ow Ow Ow Ow!" People in the hall snickered and watched. "I can get you fired!" Tony yelled at them and they snapped their mouthes shut. Camille walked up to the van where everyone was seated and tossed him in. He rubbed his ear and whimpered.

"First stop outfits, next hair and nails, next makeup, next back to the tower, get dressed, grab your gifts and get down to the party without any fatalities." She was proud of her plan for once.

"Can I wear sweatpants?" Clint asked.

"All men will wear tuxes, all women, red, no silver, only gold." She looked at all of them. "We will be coordinated if it kills me."

"I don't think it is suitable for a party." Thor was trying a tux that Camille had chosen. He walked out of the dressing room and Tony burst out laughing.

"It looks fine Thor," She glared at Tony. "Not everything needs armor."

"But how will I defend myself in a sword fight?" Camille sighed.

################

Clint was miserable. Camille had found a tux for him but he had always preferred pants. Steve was happy with whatever Camille picked out and was an easy customer. Bruce already had a tux that was made of stretch material so no one would be potentially scarred for life. Tony was impossible.

"Its too tight." "It doesn't compliment my eyes." he whined on and on. Finally she grabbed one of the previous suits that he claimed didn't match his complexion and thew it on the counter. She went to find nat who had a long red ballgown and examined it and then she grabbed her own dress and marched the team to the register.

"That will be... $5,879 and 63 cents." The cashier said and he grimaced at the price waiting for her toyed in outrage.

"No problem." She said calmly and threw the credit card Fury hd given her on the counter.

When she had payed for the clothes, they walked down the street to the hair salon. When all of the boys were getting cut and blown dry, she sat down with Nat to get a mani pedi. Finally some peace.

When she woke up. Nat was shaking her and saying it was time to go to makeup.

"Where are the boys." She was worried.

"In the lounge." Nat said "I confiscated all of the alcohol."

When they're finally finished, and another $500 dollars had been spent, they got back in the van and sped back to the tower.

"Go get dressed and don't forget your gifts!" They split up to go to their rooms. When Camille was dressed, she ran into the living room where Nat was strapping a Gun to her ankle. "No. No. No weapons allowed." Nat frowned and handed her the gun. The rest of the avengers came downstairs all holding their gifts for the secret santa. She led the procession down to the lobby where a limo was waiting for them. They got in and she immediately slapped Tonys hand away from the champagne.

"Rules." they groaned. "Moniter your drinking. Be polite, only use the speech cards I made for you, and be sensible." They pulled up at the Plaza hotel and Camille did a head count. "Stay close but not too close." Then the Avengers ran off.

#############

"Thank you!" Steve had just given his speech about the economy or something and there were no tears or panic attack what so ever. The evening was going well, they had give their gifts, She had gotten Margret Mueller from accounting and had gotten her a frying pan which she loved. And Derek James from Mission planning had given her a Bikini, which she also secretly loved. Nat had gotten Melinda May a garrote and Tony had gotten Leo Fitz a Biochemical something or other. Bruce had given Miranda Garnet from directing an automatic pencil sharpener, (no idea why.) And Clint had given Jasper Sitwell a cookbook. (Once again, no clue why.) Steve had given agent Ward a pretty nice watch. And Thor had given Bobbi Morse a... she opened up the box and screamed. She dropped it on the ground and inside was a... dead squirrel.

"Thor!" Camille whisper yelled to the god. "Why did you kill a squirrel and wrap it?" He looked confused.

"It is the greatest honor to gift a woman one of your kills on Asgard."

"We aren't on Asgard! This is earth! On earth you give people flowers and chocolate and books, not deceased rodents!" Thor, determined to fix his mistake, grabbed a tree in a pot that was near the wall and walked over to Bobbi. He grabbed the squirrel and handed her the tree which she collapsed under. Then looked at Camille, smiled and threw the squirrel out the window.

"THOR!" She yelled. She ran over to agent Morse and rolled the tree off of her. "I'm so sorry about him!" She ran over to Thor "Continue your festivities everyone!" She yelled.

A crowd had gathered in the center of the ballroom and Camille pushed her way to the front. She gasped. Nat was pounding the face of Agent Closen.

"NATASHA!" So much for the perfect night. Nat looked up and stopped mid punch. "What are you doing?"

"He kissed me!" She started hitting him again.

"That doesn't mean you can pummel him!" Nat opened her mouth. "Not another word." She dragged Nat out of the crowd and left Agent Closen on the ground.

#############

Camille found Tony surrounded by people yelling, "Chug! Chug! Chug!" Not again. She thought. She walked into the middle of the circle and grabbed the bottle of Vodka from the billionaire. "Tony!" She slapped him. She didn't care anymore. "You can't keep doing this! You are an adult and a role model to people all over the world. She dragged him out of the ballroom and into a broom closet where she pushed him in and locked the door. "Sober up and then we'll talk!" She responded to his yelling.

##########

By the time it was time to leave, Camille was finished. The Avengers, had sighed autographs, promised press conferences and were finally lined up at the limo. The got inside of the limo and sped off the the tower.

"All together, we had a pretty good night!" Camille exclaimed when they got to the tower. They walked into their respective rooms and collapsed, still in their clothes. All but Bruce who couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing.

#############

"Guys?" Tony called from the broom closet.
