Disclaimer: None of the recognizable characters belong to us, they belong to Marvel. Axelia and Cora are our OC's though.
A/N: Hey, I know we're two chapters behind, our school went virtual last week so I've been a bit busy and kinda forgot about this. But we're back to it and we're going to post the next two chapters to make up for it. Anyway, dear readers, that's it for now.

There was a loud crash behind Cora, causing her to fall off of the ladder and the stack of books in her arms fell on top of her, "Who the fuck are you?" A male voice asked from behind her.
She instantly turned, to see him aiming a crossbow at her, "Who the fuck are you?!"
"How did you get in here, there's a scanner up front!"
"How did YOU get in here? There's a fucking scanner and I closed the doors when I came in!" she swung her legs around, hitting his calf and forcing him to fall. In the same motion she pulled a screwdriver out of her pocket and held it at his throat, "Now, answer my god damn bloody question!"
He raised an eyebrow at her, "Are you threatening me...with a screwdriver?"
"Yes, and it's sharpened so I recommend you answer before I slit your throat."
Bucky entered the library, with food for Cora, "Hey Cor- Clint? When did you get here?"
Clint pushed her off and backed into a bookshelf, "WHO THE FUCK IS SHE AND WHY DID SHE SHARPEN A SCREWDRIVER?!" he yelled at Bucky.
Bucky chuckled, set the food down and put an arm around her shoulders, "Clint meet Cora, Cora meet Clint."
"We kind of already met," and "YOU DIDN'T ANSWER MY OTHER QUESTION." were said at the same time, Cora and Clint talking over each other. Cora stood and tried to lean on Bucky. He swiftly moved out of the way and she instantly fell to the floor, "You bloody bastard."
He grinned, "Bold of you to assume my parents weren't married."
"Were they?" she cocked an eyebrow.
"Bold of you to assume if I know or not."
Clint kept looking between the two, "Are you two…?"
He didn't finish his sentence, but they both knew what he implied. Bucky's face flushed and Cora laughed, "No, but I'm pretty sure I'm the best female friend he's had since 1943."
"1943?!" Bucky asked, "I had plenty of female friends in the 40's."
At that moment Axelia ran into the room and tripped on Cora, "One more dAY UNTIL WE CAN GET MAGNUM!"
Clint looked down at Axelia, then back to Bucky, "And this buffoon?"
Bucky sighed, "Axelia, the resident maniac."
Cora pushed Axelia off of her and stood up, arms crossed on her chest, "James Barnes."
"Uh ooohhhh somebody's in troouuubbbllleee," Axelia giggled, pointing at Bucky.
Clint raised an eyebrow at the three of them, "Yes darling?" Bucky asked, not entirely sure what this was all about.
"You walk in to see me about to murder someone and you don't even try to stop me?"
He shrugged, "I dunno, maybe? I mean, would you have actually murdered him?"
"I don't know who the actual bloody hell he is, why WOULDN'T I kill him?!"
Clint nudged Axelia and whispered, "Do they always bicker like a married couple? Are we completely sure they're not dating?"
"I don't know!" Bucky yelled back at Cora, "YOU'RE THE ONE WITH A SHARPENED FUCKING SCREWDRIVER."
"ITS FOR SELF DEFENCE!"
Axelia leaned over to Clint and whispered back, "You know, I'm not sure."
"SELF DEFENCE?! NO ONE IS GOING TO ATTACK YOU AT THE FUCKING AVENGER TOWER!"
Clint crossed his arms, watching them, "Ship it?"
Axelia grinned, "Definitely."
Suddenly, Tony's voice came over Clint's watch, "Get the fuck out of my tower, Barton."
Bucky and Cora's bickering stopped and they both looked over to Clint, "You heard the man," Cora said, "Get the fuck out."
He shrugged and stretched his arms, "Guess that's my que, you'll probably see me around." and with that he jumped up and climbed into the vent.
Cora looked at the vent, then back to Bucky, "Is he part spider or is there something I'm missing here?"
He sighed, "No he is not spiderman."
"No shit sherlock, spiderman doesn't carry a fucking crossbow."
Axelia stepped in between them and started dragging Cora out of the library, "No more bickering, lovebirds."
"Love birds?" Cora asked, scoffing, "He wishes."
"I think its the other way around, shortstack."
"Oh you did NOT just go there!"
"So what if I did?!"
"Break it up, break it up, you're both beautiful," Axelia said, stifling her laughter.
"Fuck you, Amana," Cora snapped.
"Is that an insult or an invitation?"
"Fuck you Amana!" Cora said, walking away, ignoring both Axelia's smirk and Bucky's stare.
