AN: Sorry it took me so long to update! Life was crazy =(

Two days later, Jane Foster opened her door to see Tony Stark standing outside.

„Hello, Dr. Foster. I want to offer you something."

Jane didn't really know what to think. Yes, she was kind of used to impossible things by now (cough the nordic god of thunder falling from the sky cough) but Tony Stark on her doorstep? That was a whole new level of craziness.

Yet he stood there, obviously waiting for her to say something. She took a deep breath and said:

„Good Morning, Mr. Stark."

„Good Morning, Dr. Foster. So, you are agreeing? Good, I'm gonna send Happy to pick up your stuff."

„You didn't even say what you are offering." Jane answered, a bit taken aback by his fast assumptions.

„Isn't that obvious? I'm asking you to come over to Stark tower. You're an astrophysicists believe me, my labs are candyland. And, I should add, Bruce and I work on a way to get Point Break there."

„Point Break?" Jane was extremely confused, and wondered how anyone could put up with this guy. This Bruce had to had the patience of a saint.

„Thor. Big blonde dud with a hammer and a red cape. SHIELD files say you two have met. And, like I said, Bruce and me work on a way to at least contact him."

At that, Darcy showed up behind Jane. The girl lived with Jane, because well, it was way cheaper for Darcy and Jane liked to have company.

„Cool. What about me?" She asked.

„Of course you're invited to come as well. Bruce and I were already searching for a lab assistant, by the way."

„Darcy belongs to me, clear? But about your offer … I work in SHIELD labs. Are you sure you can compete with that?"

„If I … If I can compete with SHIELD? OF COURSE I can. I hack them on a daily basis, and where do you think they got the most of their fancy toys from? Exactly. Me. And I keep the best things for my own lab."

Darcy smiled to Jane and asked:

„Sounds cool. Who else lives there?"

„Well, me, my wife Pepper, Bruce, Legolas, Natalie and Capsicle."

Jane looked questioning, she had about no idea who the guy meant, but Darcy was grinning.

„So we're gonna live with all the Avengers? So cool! Let's do it, Jane!"

Needless to say, the next morning all Avengers including Pepper waited in the livingroom to meet the two new residents. Jane still wasn't sure about the whole thing, but Darcy seemed totally happy about it so she decided to go along with it. At least for now.

It was a bit awkward to walk into the tower. Darcy seemed at her best, ogling at the technologies and chatting with JARVIS as if she had never been anywhere else, but Jane was still stunned by the fact that she was here. Then, they came to the livingroom.

Jane would never forget the sight she was greeted with. On the couches sitting were five people. To her right was a clearly pregnant redhead, who Jane remembered to have seen in some magazine a while ago. She smiled at them and Tony went to her to peck her, so Jane assumed she was his wife. On the next couch where two men. One of them, a black-haired middle aged guy seemed familiar and then Jane remembered that she met him on a science convention years ago. His name was... Banner. Dr. Bruce Banner. She had always wondered what had happened to him. He smiled shyly at her, clearly recognizing her, too. She smiled a bit, too. Next to him was a young, blond man that seemed to scream military. She remembered Stark mentioning a 'Capsical', so, she realized with a shock, this was most probably Captain America. On her left where to people on the third couch, a blond guy that seemed familiar, even though she couldn't place him and a stunning redhead. They were curled together in a way that made it pretty clear that they were a couple.

„Guys, this are Dr. Jane Foster and Darcy Lewis." Tony introduced themselves

The military guy stood up.

„Steve Rogers, Ma'ams. Nice to meet you." Jane shook the offered hand and just nodded. (Because well, you don't meet CAPTAIN AMERICA everyday, do you?)

Dr. Banner was the next one.

„Dr. Foster, nice to see you again. And nice to meet you, Ms. Lewis."

Jane smiled and answered.

„Yes, nice to see you, too. I missed you on the Med-convention last year." (AN: Don't know if anything like this exists. I'm totally just making something up)

„I was … busy." He answered. Jane decided to not ask why.

Tony's wife smiled up at her.

„Nice to meet you. I'm Pepper. Tony's wife. It's definitively good to have more women in here, Natasha and I were a bit overrun by the men."

„It's very nice we can come here, Mrs. Stark." Jane answered.

„No problem, like I said, it's good to have you here. And it's just Pepper." Jane immediately liked the woman.

The last ones were the couple to Jane's left. Both stood up and only now Jane realized that the second redhead was also pregnant. Probably about as far along as Pepper, she guessed.

„Clint Barton." The man said. Jane still didn't know where she met him, but …

„You were the SHIELD agent that was watching us! You stole my Ipod!" Darcy clearly did.

„Yeah, sorry about that." He smirked, or was it a smile?

The redhead next to him just offered a hand and said:

„Natasha Romanoff."

After the introduction there was an awkward silence. Suddenly, Tony said:

„Let's do some science!"

AN: Not so sure about this chapter. I'm gonna try to update more frequently, but I can't promise it. I hope you liked it though and please tell me what you think!
