"Hi!"Captain America said with a smile.
"Hi!" I said nervously with a small smile.
"Are you okay? You look a little nervous." He asked with a caring smile.
"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just not a fan of heights,actually I'm terrified of heights." I said in a nervous voice.
"So, where are you heading?" Capt. asked trying to keep my mind off of how high up we were.
"To Director Fury's office. You?" I replied timidly.
"Same." He said a little shocked.
"You know I could go for some Starbucks right about now." I said jokingly with a little laugh. I was mainly trying to calm my nerves.
"Yeah,me too" Capt. said with a laugh.
Finally we reached the top floor. We made our way to Fury's office.
"Captain,Agent Wilson,"Director Fury said,as he motioned for us to sit down in two chairs facing his desk,that was positioned in front of a window.
"We've been monitoring some potential threats since Loki's visit. We want to recruit or terminate these people."Fury said.
"And you need me to monitor the situation from here,I suppose?"I asked in an irritated voice.
Rogers just looked between me and Fury.
"No actually, I think you've been on medical leave long enough. It's time you get back on the field. You and Rogers will be going undercover." Fury said.
Fury told us about our mission, but I didn't pay attention I was to busy with the fact that I was getting back on the field.
"Agent,Agent Wilson!" Fury said.
Capt. lightly elbowed me,pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Yes sir?"I asked after missing the entire debriefing.
"Do you understand your mission,Agent Wilson?" The Director asked.
"Yes sir. I understand completely."I said hoping it was convincing enough.
"You're dismissed. You leave in the morning." Fury said.
Captain Rogers and I walked out of the Director's into the corridor.
"So,what's our mission?"I asked while blushing.
"I kinda figured you weren't listening." Capt. said with a laugh.
Halfway down the corridor we saw Hawkeye.
"Clint,guess what!?" I said excitedly.
"What?"Clint asked curiously.
"Fury gave me an undercover field mission!" I said excitedly.
"What?! What part of 'no more field work' did he not understand?!"Clint said angrily.
"Excuse me! You're the one who kept me cooped up in an office for the past year!? I can't believe you!" I exclaimed angrily.
"Nick,I'm sorry. I was just trying to protect you." Clint explained with a caring look.
Captain Rogers was just standing there confused in the middle of the hall.
"Look,I'm thankful that you want to protect me. But I'm not just your little sis anymore,I'm also a S.H.E.I.L.D . agent." I said more calmly.
Rogers just stood there shocked.
"Fine,you're right. See you later Agent."Clint said trying to sound fine,but I could tell he was cross. He walked away,I could almost see steam coming out of his ears. I sighed and felt sorry for how I treated my big brother. Suddenly I remembered that Capt was standing there.
"Um, I'm not sure what just happened."Capt said confusedly.
"Right. I think we need to start packing." I said hoping to hurry down to the lab to talk to Skye,Fitz,and Simmons.
"Okay,if you need to talk I'm here."Capt said.
"Thank you,Captain. It means a lot,but there are a couple of people who are probably dying to hear if I got fired or not."I said trying to lighten the mood.
"Call me Steve. And I understand,Nick."He said with a wink and a smile.
"Thank you, Steve. Catch ya later." I added as I walked away.
I finally made it to the lab,the three were waiting for me impatiently.
"Well, I'm not fired. I was assigned a field mission with Captain America, but I got into a fight with my older brother." I said with mixed emotions.
They just stared at me, not sure what to say.
"Well, at least you get to get back on the field."Skye said with a small smile.
"Yes, but I found out my brother was the reason I haven't been on the field for the past year. I got mad at him he tried to play it cool but he was totally mad at me. I'm not sure what to do." I replied with a frown.
"Well ,you could apologize to him." Fitz said looking up.
"Why would I do that! He was the one at fault, not me! I have a right to be mad at him." I exclaimed, feeling annoyed at Fitz.
"She has a point, Fitz." Simmons said with a caring look.
"I agree with Nick and Jemma,but I also see where Fitz is going."Skye said.
"Thank you, Skye." Fitz thanked Skye, eyeing me and Jemma.
Simmons and I looked at each other confusedly. Then we looked at Skye.
"Fine, I'll apologize to him tonight at the apartment." I said throwing my hands up in frustration.
"Good if you need back up just call." Skye added with a wink and a giggle.
"Ha Ha,"I said jokingly, "Who knows I may have to take you up on that."
"We've got your back." Fitz and Simmons said with a big smile.
"Well I gotta go pack. I can't believe I have a mission with Captain America."I practically squealed out,while giving them a huge group hug.
I walked outside and forgot that Clint was supposed to be my ride. Of course he left without telling me. I rolled my eyes,and pulled out my phone to call for a ride.
"Hello?"A voice answered.
"Hey, it's Nichole,"I replied,"Can you give me a ride to the apartment?"
"Sure. What happened to Clint? He usually takes you home." She stated.
"It's a long story, I'll tell you when I get into the car." I said.
Within five minutes a black Mustang pulled up. I opened the door and got in. In the driver's seat was a woman with shoulder length,curly,red hair. She wore a black leather suit.
"Hey, Nat you look great." I simply said with a smile.
"Uh-huh,thanks. Now details, what's going on between you and your brother." She asked with a frown.
I told her everything that had happened today,which was a lot.
"Then he left me at the base and here I am now." I said.
"Well, I agree with Fitz, you should apologize for exploding at him. But he needs to apologize to you about everything else." She commented.
"I will tonight. But I also need to pack for tomorrow."
We finally got to my apartment building.
"Thanks for the ride,and the advice. You're a lifesaver literally." I said as I jumped out of the car.
"No problem. Call me if you need me to talk some sense into him." She winked.
I smiled and walked inside,and pulled out my cell.
"Hello?" Nat answered.
"So do you want to go ahead and talk some sense into him and save a car ride." I asked.
"No you need to try to work this out yourselves." She said firmly with a concerned look through the window.
"Okay,bye" I huffed as I hung up.
I walked to the elevator,and saw Clint sneak down the stairs. So I snuck up behind him to find out what he was doing. This was going to be fun.
"Where ya going?"I asked him as he jumped,scared half to death.
"Nick, you scared me."
"Sorry,but why are ya sneaking out?"
"No reason." He said trying to act innocent.
"Can we talk?" I asked biting my lip for his reply.
"As long as you don't explode at me again."Clint replied with a big bro loving look. Which he hardly made ever but I loved it to see it,it made me feel special. He was the best brother a girl could wish for. I am so proud of him.
" I promise."I said giving him a hug as we walked up to our apartment.
"I'm sorry I got so mad, I loved being a full time field agent."
"I'm sorry. I should have talked to you about how I felt. But I as your big brother I have to protect you." He explained with a loving smile.I could tell he was actually saying that he loved me, but he has to keep his tough rep.
"I love you too." I said as I gave him the biggest hug I could.
"Ya ya. Get pack'n." He demanded as he rolled his eyes.
I ran to my room and grabbed my suitcases. I packed my knives,bow and extra arrows,a couple of guns and plenty of ammo. Next, I started packing clothes. It was mainly camo,black,teal,red,navy, a little pink here and there,and jean stuff. I made sure I had plenty of hairspray, bands, shampoo,conditioner,etc. I finally finished packing, and I was starving. I ran to the kitchen to find Clint making sandwiches for dinner.
"Did you finish packing?" He asked.
"Yep. I'm starved though."I answered with a laugh.
We sat down and ate in the living room. We decided to watch Star Trek:Deep Space 9 (my favorite Star Trek). When we finished supper, I got ready for bed.
