"Hey, beautiful," My curly chestnut hair stuck to my neck with sweat. The tropical temperatures had found their way into my room. Sam looked at me sweetly.
"Good morning," It was about five in the morning the time I had to be up for one thing mission prep.
"So are you happy now?" He leaned back propping his hands behind his head.
"Yes," I smiled and got up
"Up so soon?"
"I have to create mission packet's," I pulled on my bra and t-shirt.
"We have a mission?" Sam said to me sitting up the sheet falling revealing his bare torso.
"Yes stupid," I laughed tugging on leggings.
"Well wake me up when I am needed, I hear Nat and Flint get to sleep into 9:00"
"They can get ready in five minutes." I kissed him on the cheek.
"I can't believe them…" he rolled his eyes.
"Bye Sammy see you soon."
"Love you, Manda," He said lightly as I bounced out of the door. I walked down the hall toward the room. I could hear noises from Nat and Flint' s room soft muffled exchanging of loving words.
Sometimes I would wish that Sam and I were like that. Scarlet and Dimitri, they were a step above Nat and Flint. Scarlet was picking out wedding dresses and Dimitri was already planning her proposal. Both of them looking at houses with picket fences and baby names. Nat and Flint loved each other but both of them were to present to get married, they live in the moment.
"Flint, I think someone is in the hall." How did they hear me?
"Shit get dressed Nat if Clint and Tasha find out."
"But we didn't…"
"I know but it was a hot night and I am in my boxers and you are half dressed," His voice pointed out
"Fine I will get to my room and shower off okay, then we will continue this talk." I heard her voice and the brief silence that was made up of a quick romantic kiss. The door swung open and I stood frozen in the doorway.
"Oh, We thought you might be a mentor," She blushed
"Nah, you two are chill," I smiled
"Well, thanks for that but if Natasha and Clint find out about Flint and me." She shook her head "There is really obvious sexual tension between the two but Clint is married and deeply in love and he is fooling himself if he doesn't think he has feelings for Natasha. She feels the same. They see themselves in us they might you know freak out mentally." Nat shrugged and moved to her rooms.
I sighed and walked to our briefing room. Maggie and Corey handed me the mission packet.
"Hey, you and Sam have a fight?" Maggie asked skeptically locking eyes with me.
"No, No, it just has you ever noticed how romantic and loving Nat and Flint's relationship is?"
"Yes, so?" Corey said flatly
"I dunno, it is just Sam and I aren't like that and…"
"Well, Nat and Flint are settled, they found each other they only want each other, their relationship is more serious than what their age bracket usually experiences. It is not that you and Sam aren't soulmates but the bond that Nat and Flint have is unique and strong…" Corey sighed
"Big words," I muttered, "Let's get ready." I sighed
"Okay, the mission packets are made and the updated info is being forwarded to as we speak," Corey looked up from her Stark light weight laptop.
"Thanks," I smiled. Then a knock rang out and Scarlet's head looked in.
"Good Morning!" She smiled. "Ashlyn and I made coffee and breakfast wraps!" The two girls set down the plates
"Thanks," Maggie chimed.
"No problem." Ash swatted away the compliment.
"We just came by to pick up the mission packets, and bring food," Scarlet picked up two and Ashlyn did the same. I watched as she grabbed the packet. Her ring finger had a new crystal ring with black onyx.
"Well, thanks and Scarlet…" I said
"Yeah?" She smiled backward at me.
"That ring?" She blushed quickly
"Dimitri, um proposed." She smiled lightly. "He is staying back today he's got a fever." She sighed
"well I hope he feels better! And congrats!" My voice lacked all the enthusiasm I thought it should contain.
"Thank You," She blushed and then left quickly.
A/NSorry, this was so short... Long chapter coming soon!
