"I want a stress free life!" Jennifer said in frustration as she, Natasha, and Clint Barton sat at a downtown club. "Is that too much to ask?"

"Depends on who your asking." Clint said before taking a drink of his beer, fully aware of Jen glaring at him.

Over the few months Jen has finally gotten use to this new day of age, and with Natasha's help was able to understand most of everything and the two grew to be extremly close friends, and she has became close friends to Clint, and semi friends with Tony Stark.

"Don't look now." Clint told her as he turned his attention back to his beer. "But the guy at the other end of the bar is checking you out." He lazily took a drink from the bottle.

Jen huffed as she leaned forward to place her left elbow on the smooth bar counter, then placed her chin in her palm. "No way. Didn't you get the memo? I have sworn off men."

Clint raised an eyebrow as he turned to her. "What does that mean?" He then teased. "You into girls now instead?" He grinned. "Cause I have a cousin who's lookin."

Jen gave him a death glare before she smacked him upside the head with her free hand. "Shut it, birdman!"

"It does look like you have an admoror." Natasha said with admusment.

Jen shook her head. "This isn't right. My children, my grandchildren, and my greatgandchildren are suppose to be living their lives. Enjoying this new day of age. It's not fair." She slid off her barstool and grabbed her light blue jean jacket. "Its not fair to me, and most inportantly - not fair to them." She turned to leave. "I'm going home."

Both Clint, and Natasha watched her leave. "She really feels lonely in our day of age, doesn't she?" He asked.

"Wouldn't you feel the same?" The red-head asked.

Jen sighed as she now sat in the apartment she still shares with Natasha. The blonde is lying on the couch as she watched the movie Annie.

Steve opened the front door and paused when he saw Bucky. "You're not suppose to be here." He told his best friend.

"Why can't I explain?"

"Because she doesn't want to hear any of it ... and neither do I."

"Kim was just, just." Bucky trailed off, not knowing what to really say.

"A fling?" Steve helped. "A distraction? Look, she's angry at me too." He replied. "For helping you keep that secret."

Bucky looked hurt. "I'm sorry. It was a stupid thing to do, I shouldn't have dragged you into the middle of things."

"Yeah, you shouldn't have." Steve agreed. "Will you please leave? Jen's going to be down any minute, then we're both dead."

Bucky nodded. "Yeah. Sure." He turned to leave.

Steve closed the front door and came face to face with his sister.

"Jen!" He gasped surprised with a jump. "You are as quiet as a mouse."

Jen had her arms folded as she glared at him. "That was Bucky, wasn't it?"

Steve gulped. "Uhhh." He took a step back from his sister.

"It was him!" She yelled. "I knew I shouldn't have let you answer the door! If he thinks going back to that tramp." She trailed off as she tried to calm herself. "Well, two can play at this game!"

Steve rubbed the back of his head. "What game is that?" He watched as Jen turned and stalked off.

"He can just forget about a future with me." She ranted as she stomped her way upstairs. "Because I can do the same!" She disappeared through the hall of the second level of the house, but her angry and hurt voice is still clear. "He wants to move on, so can I!"

"Why am I always in the middle of their arguments and fights?" Steve muttered as he fell onto the couch and sulked with his arms folded.

Tears rolled down her cheeks as Jen hugged a couch pillow as she continued to ly on the couch. "I miss my boys." She whispered, her voice broken. "So much."

Unknown to her, she's going to get a surprise the next day when she comes into work at Shield.

Hope you like, and hope its not too short!
