Tony had carried out his usual introductions to the group of people he was sat around with and then walked away clearly showing that he was done with whatever they were discussing in that meeting. So, Felicity found herself having dinner with Nat, Bruce, Steve, Bucky, Sam and obviously Tony and Pepper. Felicity knew that these were some of the people from the greatest superhero team in the world as Tony put it. Once they had all sat down at the table to eat the take away Tony had ordered in, Felicity waited for the grilling to begin. She knew it would happen, just solely because Tony rarely brought up to people he had a sister, and it wasn't because he was ashamed of her but just because he was protective and didn't want to see her get into any danger.

"So," Natasha started saying as she began to open a container, "What's it like being related to Tony?" Felicity looked up and smirked at Natasha,

"Well, what it's like working with Tony?"

"Bearable." Natasha simply said, returning Felicity's gaze.

"That's what it's like being his sister." Felicity simply said, removing her gaze and placing it onto the container in front of her and dishing up some noodles onto her plate. This caused a bit of a chuckle between the team.

"I like her," Natasha simply said.

"You know what sis," Tony said, then pointing to his chest, "That hurts right here." Felicity looked at Tony and saw that he was smiling at her and she returned his smile.

They continued to sit round the table talking about general chit chat. Felicity was able to learn that the reason why Tony called Steve Grandpa, learn about Natasha beating Happy in the boxing ring, and a few stories of their missions all together.

"So, Felicity, how comes we haven't really heard anything about you?" Sam asked across the table, this caused Felicity to smile. She had been waiting all evening for this question, it wasn't a particular exciting question, nor did it have an exciting answer. It's just as she knew, being a Stark meant that there was always something in the news.

"Oh, well I was just a baby when our parents died and with Tony being 21 when he inherited the company I would say his life was a bit more interesting. I mean billionaire crashes boat again, or baby poops in nappy again – I would say the first headline is a bit more interesting."

"Hey, I only crashed a boat once…Oh and that other time…so I would say no more than five times." Tony said, waffling on.

Once dinner was over, Felicity watched as everyone seemed to scatter around the room. Steve and Sam were now playing pool, Tony and Pepper was chatting in a corner somewhere, Natasha and Bruce were at the bar and Bucky had sat down on the sofa area on his own. Felicity had noticed how quiet he had been at dinner, hardly saying a word or really glancing around at anyone. Felicity grabbed herself a scotch and poured another one and went over to the sofa area. She placed the scotch opposite Bucky and sat down opposite him, causing him to look up at her.

"I can only assume you were your usual chatty self at dinner?" Felicity smiled at him and this caused Bucky to chuckle.

"How could you tell doll?" Bucky said reaching over and grabbing the scotch. Felicity was able to get a good look of him, of course she had known about him. Like Tony would have ever kept anything secret about what had happened. She could see his left hand had a glove on, obviously this was covering his famous arm.

"Yeah, I could barely get you to shut up." Felicity now smirked, while taking a sip of her scotch and this caused Bucky to smile.

"Oh wow, he cracks a smile." Felicity could hear Sam's voice say behind her as he and Steve sat down on the other sofas.

"It's a slippery slope" Felicity took a sip of her drink, "We'll be braiding each other's hair tomorrow night."

Felicity, Steve and Sam chatted for a bit more and Bucky gradually joined in a bit more with the conversation. Felicity stood up after a while, "Well it was lovely chatting to you boy scouts, but I'm off to bed."

"Boy scouts?" Bucky, Steve and Sam said at the same time. Felicity nodded,

"Boy scouts." She then pointed to the three of them and then left the area.

Steve

He had started watching Bucky when Felicity came over to him and sat down and offered him a scotch. He tried to not make it obvious but Sam had clocked on.

"Stop worrying." Sam said to Steve as he took his shot.

"You know what he can be like." Steve said sounding concerned.

"Yeah and someone trying to talk to him other than us will do him some good," Sam replied looking over in their direction, "Look he even cracked a smile. Now this is something I want to get a close up of." He then put his cue stick down and went to join them over at the sofas.

Felicity

Felicity got up early to go for a run before her second day of following Pepper around in the hopes to fully understand what was expected and not to let it all go crashing into the ground. She tied her hair up and put on some gym clothes and left her room.

Felicity enjoyed her run, she was no superhero or super soldier but she was quite fit and athletic. At the age of fifteen she was taught self defence, it was Tony's idea as he didn't like the idea of his sister not being able to defend herself when he wasn't there. She was lost in her own thoughts with her music playing in her headphones when she could feel someone's presence next to her. She turned and saw Bucky running next to her,

"My fucking god," she shouted, losing balance and tripping over herself. Felicity landed on the ground with a bit of a thud landing awkwardly on her ankle and groaned. "You don't just sneak up on people." Bucky looked a bit shocked at her outburst but extended his hand to help her up. Felicity took it.

"I didn't mean to make you jump. I was trying to run past you." He said, rubbing the back of his head. "I didn't expect anyone else to be awake and running." Felicity nodded and went to put some weight on her foot and she whelped in pain and almost fell back down until Bucky grabbed her.

"Ow," she moaned. She looked back up at Bucky and his face was so close to hers it made her nervous. "This is why you don't sneak up on people." Felicity smiled at him,

"I wasn't sneaking up on you." Bucky laughed, "Come on let me help you back." He then picked up Felicity and carried her bridal style back to the headquarters.

"See, now you have to talk to me." Felicity laughed.
