Chapter 2: Meeting the god of Mischief

Bella's POV:

Inside the box was the pictures that were taken at my eighteenth birthday party, the necklace Alice and Rosalie gave me, the plane tickets to see my mom from Carlisle and Esme and the CD with my lullaby that HE made me. I couldn't believe they were here the whole time. I started to feel mad as I thought about what happened and that he did this. I picked up the box and walked downstairs headed straight for the door.

"Bells? What are you doing?" Charlie asked me concerned.

"Just taking this box to the trash, it's stuff I don't want anymore." I said and he nodded. I walked out the door and over to the trash can. I was tired of feeling broken and miserable, it was time I moved on. I dumped the box in the trash and walked back inside. I sat on the couch with Charlie and sighed.

"Remember the birthday gifts I got for my eighteenth birthday that I thought he took with him?" I asked and Charlie nodded.

"He stashed them under a floorboard in my room."

"How did he even get inside to do that?" I shrugged.

"I must have left the window open that morning and he climbed up the tree and got in that way." I said looking at him.

"Ah well I know how upset you were when they went missing, but why did you throw them out?" Charlie asked and I could tell he was a little confused since I was a mess when I thought he took them with him.

"It's time I move on and leave all that behind. I just feel like I should have a fresh start entirely."

"That's a good idea Bells," my dad said and I jumped not expecting him to be back yet.

"Geeze dad, don't do that!" I shouted and dad laughed.

"Sorry Bells I didn't mean to." I shook my head and stood up.

"So are we set to go?" I asked and my dad nodded.

"Yes everything is loaded and ready for us to get back." I hugged Charlie and smiled.

"Thank you for looking after me when dad couldn't, you will always be my second dad." I said and Charlie smiled.

"You'll always be a daughter to me and please call me every once in a while so I know how everything is going." I nodded and walked to the car.

Steve's POV:

I looked at Charlie and smiled.

"Like Bella said, thank you for looking after her when I couldn't. I am really grateful to you for everything you have done." I said meaning every word.

"You're welcome Steve, you know you guys are family to me." I smiled and hugged him before I walked out to the car and Happy followed. I got into the driver's seat as Happy got into the back letting Bella sit in the front so I could be close to my daughter.

"Are you sure you're ok in the back Happy? I'd be more than happy to switch with you." Bella said, feeling guilty.

"I'm fine Bella really, besides this way you and your dad can catch up." he said and I smiled slightly.

"So Bells, you finished school a few months ago, are you going to look at colleges in New York?" I asked, wanting to get an idea of what she was thinking.

"Well I'd like to but maybe after I get settled and find a part time job." she said with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Well I know Tony is looking for someone to help us in the tower so when we are out in the field someone is always keeping track of where we are."

"I could do that. Do you think he'd let me?"

"I'm sure he will, he's very willing to let you at least try." Happy said.

"Then after everything is set I'll figure out college, even if it's just online classes for now." I smiled as I continued to drive back to the jet. I'm really glad Bella has a plan and that she is really trying to move on with her life.

"I'm glad, and I want you to know that we've got two new members to the Avenger's, well technically, one, but his brother sometimes helps us."

"Are you talking about Thor and his brother Loki?" she asked and I smiled.

"I should have known you'd do your research. Yes Thor and Loki, Loki we never know what he's going to do but Thor trusts him so we will too until he gives us a reason not to."

"Alright i'll keep that in mind." i smiled as i parked the car near the jet and got out of the car and walked onto the jet followed by Bella and Happy. Once we were all seated and the jet took off, Bella started to nod off and I could tell she hadn't been sleeping well lately. As soon as she was asleep i took a blanket and covered her up and kissed her forehead like I used to do when she was a little girl.

Bella's POV: (an hour later)

I had been sleeping for maybe an hour having the same nightmare I always have until I felt someone shaking me trying to get me to wake up. I opened my eyes and saw my dad looking at me worried.

"Bells? Are you alright you started to scream and i got worried." he said and i looked down hoping he wouldn't have found out.

"Y-yeah i'm fine, just a nightmare. They happen a lot."

"What are they about?"

"It's the same one everytime, I'm walking through the forest all alone and I'm lost and then it all turns to nothing." I said and my dad hugged me.

"I'm so sorry Bells. Is there anything I can do?"

"No, I don't think so."

"Alright but if I can help I'd like to Bells, i'm worried about you."

"I-i know dad." I smiled a little and so did he.

"You know I've missed you calling me that. Actually I've missed having you around in general."

"I've missed you too dad." I looked out the window and noticed we were landing near the Avengers facility and I couldn't help but smile.

"I can't believe how amazing this place looks in person." I heard my dad chuckle and I looked at him confused.

"I knew you'd like it, but it's also pretty big so you can get lost if you aren't sure where you are going." I nodded.

"I'll be careful I promise." I said as Happy walked over.

"Bella, why don't you go inside and see if you can find Thor so he can help us with the boxes." I nodded and walked off the plane and into the facility. I was curious about what Thor was like, I had heard that he was a nice guy but I want to know if it's true. I walked into the building and saw two guys arguing. One had long blonde hair and was very muscular, the other one had long black hair and not as muscular. I could only assume they were Thor and Loki. As I walked closer I noticed how handsome Loki was, he had blue eyes, he was a little lanky but lean as well.

"Excuse me? Thor? Happy and S-Steve need some help unloading some things from the jet. They sent me to get you." I said knowing dad wanted to tell the team who I was himself.

"Ah, Rogers is back. Good, I'll go help him now. Loki please don't annoy the young maiden." Thor said and walked out to the jet. After he left I looked at Loki curiously.

"So you're Loki, the god of mischief. You are a lot more handsome than I was told you were." I said and he smirked as he walked over to me.

"Well you know who I am but I have no idea who you are." he said and I blushed a little.

"Forgive me. I'm Bella Rogers, it's a pleasure to meet you." I said and he looked at me a little surprised.

"You're related to Captain America?"

"You could say that."
