Chapter 14

Hazel, being the highly trained agent she was, quickly thought up a lie.

"He thought that he would have been able to kill me by then, after his many failed attempts." Steve nodded and let out a sigh of relief. He hugged her tightly once more.

"I was starting to think he poisoned you." Hazel laughed lightly but she knew the Captain's guess was spot on. They walked back through to the living room and he pulled her into his lap. He played with the end of her trouser leg and she smiled at him.

Steve gently rolled her trouser leg up slightly so he could examine the bullet scar. It wasn't pretty but it wasn't horrendous either. It was a small circle, with a small red line coming right across the middle and Steve stared at it for a moment.

"When did the bullet get take out? I don't remember you going in for the operation." She laughed lightly.

"I wasn't waiting around. The second I got back up after being stabbed, I grabbed some tweezers and pulled it right out." Steve's jaw dropped. He was shocked, that would have hurt.

She shrugged and he rolled his eyes. He realised that this was part of the sad truth behind Hazel Barton.

She opened her mouth. "Sadly, I've had worse." He didn't pry further as he knew she wasn't the type to go into her past. They sat on the couch, Steve telling her a few of his war stories before they both headed to bed.

Just as Hazel was about to leave his room, he called her back.

"Why don't you sleep here tonight?" Hazel smirked and he blushed. She laughed before nodding and joining him under the covers. He pulled her against his chest and soon the two Avengers were blissfully sleeping.

They were woken up by a phone ringing. Hazel lightly pecked Steve on the lips as she grabbed the phone.

"Agent Barton. Talk to me." Steve laughed lightly at her professional tone and she gently smacked his bare chest.

She heard Fury on the other side. "I've got you and the old Cap a mission. I'm sending a quinjet for you both to arrive in roughly half hour. Oh and Agent Barton?" Hazel nodded before she remember he couldn't see her.

"Yes sir?"

"You still need to thank me for letting you move in with your boyfriend." Hazel's eyebrows shot up in surprise.

"How did you know?" She asked confused and Nick laughed.

"After you got stabbed and were still under Loki's control you mentioned it as I got you back." Hazel sighed and she heard his booming laughter before she said a quick goodbye and hung up.

Hazel motioned that she would be two minutes to Steve before she walked into her room and pulled her new shield uniform on. The old one was pretty badly beat up, the bullet holes and slashes had made the shot be declared unsuitable so Tony had made her a new suit.

It was basically the same as Natasha's but didn't show as much cleavage, which had been Clint's request. However, Tony had mentioned that Fury had asked for a slight style to be on it. He made a few of the panels be blue, the colour of the Tesseract and she knew it was his way of reminding her how many times she had came close to death. She wasn't sure if it was a warning or a praise just yet.

Once she was changed, she walked out of her room while turning around to close the door. She look a deep breath and decided to walk to Steve's room.

When she turned around, Steve was standing right behind her making her heart jump slightly. He laughed at her shocked face.

"What did Fury want?" He asked as he slipped a clean shirt over his head. Hazel smiled.

"He's got the two of us a mission." Steve nodded and motioned for Hazel to turn around. He quickly stripped off his dirty underwear and slipped on a new pair of boxers and a pair of black jeans. They didn't flare out at the bottom but they weren't so skinny as to stick to his legs. It had been a present from Hazel.

They shared a quick kiss before Hazel grabbed her bow and arrows with him grabbing his shield and they headed up to the helicopter pad on top of he building. Hazel smiled as the pilot waved and hazel recognised her as Agent Hill.

"Fury's finally letting you fly now?" Agent Hill laughed.

"After what, five years?" They both laughed and the quinjet took off heading over the ocean. Steve smiled at Mariah.

"So are we flying or sailing today?" He asked and Hazel was proud how quick he was starting to catch on to this new world.

Agent hill laughed. "Sailing. Fury wants to take it easy." The three laughed and they landed. Once on deck, they were lead into the main control room and Hazel laughed as she saw one of the agents yet again playing Galaga.

Fury motioned for the two to sit down across from him at the table. He slid a folder across to them and as Steve had a quick look, Fury mentioned something to Hazel.

"Once you've got back, I'm holding a full Avengers meeting maybe even with Thor." Hazel raised an eyebrow and Steve looked up. "You need a codename and it wouldn't feel right if someone wasn't here." Hazel and Steve shook their heads as Fury smiled at them before going back to the task on hand.

"Anyway, there's a charity event going on in Miami and we've been asked to sent two agents to keep a close eye and to be the guest of honour so we picked you two. There is a selection of dresses in the costume room for you Agent Barton. For you captain, here's a suit that we had tailored for you. Try to match. Dismissed." They collected the rest of the information and Steve accompanied Hazel to pick a dress. He picked out a navy blue dress which reached her knees, and it was loose around her legs. She nodded, she would definitely have a thigh holster and a gun strapped to her leg.

Steve had been told to have two guns on him as there was no way he would be allowed to take his shield. One was fitted nicely into the waist band of his dress pants, the other on the inside of his jacket.
