Welcome back to another chapter. I am afraid this will be bit of a filler. I wanted to build some relationships between my OC and the Avengers. So, there will be chapters that go in-between major scenes from the movie. The next chapter will have some Spencer Action! I'm really excited about that! Anywho,

I do not own anything but my OC's!

I apologize for any errors you may find.

Enjoy!

Spencer couldn't help but to giggle as Steve handed Fury a ten dollar bill. She could see Fury trying not to smirk and he had failed when the corner of Fury's mouth curled upward ever so slightly. Spencer allowed a small grin to grace her young features as Steve looked over at her with an adorable bashful expression on his face. Fury had walked over to Bruce and extends his hand. It was easy to see the reluctance on Bruce's face…it was easy to detect and conclude that Bruce didn't trust anyone. Whether it was due to the fact that he did not want to get close to people and end up hurting them or because he was afraid they would only use him, was beyond Spencer.

Bruce, after a brief pause, shakes Fury's hand.

"Doctor, thank you for coming."

Bruce held a small, bitter but sarcastic smile on his rugged face, "Thanks for asking nicely." He shifted on his feet, "So, uh, how long am I staying?"

Fury didn't miss a beat, "Once we get our hands on the Tesseract, you're in the clear." Fury assured calmly with his hands behind his back.

Bruce perked up at the mention of the Tesseract, "Where are you with that?"

Fury turns to Phil to further explain. It was only when her father moved, that Spencer noticed a picture of Clint on one of the Agent's computer screen. Her breath momentarily paused and her stomach constricted painfully. Was he okay? Spencer glanced at Nat who also eying the picture of Clint. God, she sure hoped so. If anything happened to Clint…Spencer made a promise to kill that stupid Asgardian or die trying. No one messed with her family.

"We're sweeping every wirelessly accessible camera on the planet." Spencer's father droned on, "Cellphones, laptops. If it's connected to a satellite, it's eyes and ears for us."

But it wasn't fast enough, Spencer mused inwardly.

Nat voiced Spencer's thoughts out loud, "That's still not gonna find them in time."

Bruce glanced momentarily at Nat before nodding and turning to Fury, "You have to narrow the field. How many spectrometers do you have access too?"

Fury's lips twitched slightly, "How many are there?"

Bruce immediately responded, "Call every lab you know, tell them to put the spectrometers on the roof and calibrate them for gamma rays. I'll rough out a tracking algorithm based on cluster recognition," Spencer smiled in amusement at how Bruce was ordering Fury but the Director didn't looked bothered by it at all, "At least we could rule out a few places. Do you have somewhere for me to work?" Bruce asked in a lower voice.

Fury turned to Nat, "Agent Romanoff, would you show Dr, Banner to his laboratory, please." Fury ordered the older Agent.

Nat briefly smirked with a nod and beckons Bruce to follow her, "You're love it, Doc. We got all the toys." Spencer inwardly snorted and rolled her eyes watching the Doctor's brighten up a bit. It was easy to tell that the Doctor was still uneasy though but Spencer was sure that would fade once he got started on his work.

"Agent Coulson."

"Yes?"

"Yes?"

Both father and daughter spoke up in unison when they noticed, the two grinned at each other. Steve watched with a smile and a chuckle while Fury rolled his one good eye, "I meant Spencer," Her father gave a slight pout, nodded, and walked away towards Agent Hill, "Why don't you go show Steve his new living quarters?" Fury suggested knowing it would take some time to locate the Tesseract and Loki.

Spencer brightened up and nodded enthusiastically, "Sure thing, Director!" Spencer replied in a bright tone.

Her godfather gave her a flat look, "Agent."

Spencer looked innocently at the older man, "Yes, sir?"

Fury grunted, "There's no need to call me that here." He grumbled out with annoyance thick in his voice. Spencer momentarily glanced towards her father and Agent Hill. Both were smirking and whispering while throwing looks towards them.

Spencer smiled fondly at her godfather, "Yes, old man."

Fury's eyebrow twitched in annoyance but the amusement in his eye spoke otherwise. "Get going, kid." Fury motioned for her to move.

Spencer turned towards Steve, who had been strangely quiet, but Spencer knew the man was merely observing and taking everything in. "Ready, Cap?" Spencer gave the man a goofy grin.

Steve smiled down at the young girl and nodded, "Lead the way, ma'am." He spoke kindly.

Spencer fought the urge to laugh and began to walk towards their living quarters, "Call me Spencer, Cap," The man easily kept pace with her, "Or Spence. No need for formalities." Spencer threw him another grin.

"I can ask that you do the same," Steve glanced at her with glittering blue eyes and that charming smile, "Call me Steve."

Spencer hummed happily and nodded, "It's a deal, Steve."

Steve chuckled, "You look pretty young to be hanging around here," Steve remarked in a curiously light tone, "Not to sound rude." He added quickly with a light blush when he saw the amused look on the girl's face.

Spencer laughed quietly, "There's no need to worry, Steve," Spencer used her badge to open access to the lower floors before continuing, "I get asked that a lot. I'm actually twenty-two; not that much younger then you."

"Twenty-two?" Steve looked surprised, "You look a lot younger."

Spencer smiles at the blushing man, "Thank you, Steve. I'm glad I look young."

Steve shyly looks away from the young girl, "Um, so what exactly do you do? I received files about everyone else on the team except you," Spencer wasn't surprised and Steve took note, "May I ask why?"

Spencer, once again, wasn't surprised. She had been expecting these questions. The members of this team were extremely vigilant and sharp. Steve saw the amused look on Spencer's face and shook his head in amazement, "You already knew I was going to ask, didn't you?"

Spencer gave Steve a mischievous grin, "Don't give me too much credit, Steve, the members of our team aren't exactly idiots. We have some of the sharpest people joining us. It was only natural to know that one of you was going to ask." Spencer came to a stop to the door that would take them into their living quarters. "Before I explain," Spencer slides her access card into the slot and the door opened, "Agent Maria Hill or Natasha will give you your access card later on in the day. This door can only be accessed by our new team members, my father, and Fury."

"Why the exclusivity?" Steve raised his eyebrow.

"Security purposes," Spencer breezily replied, "Don't want someone getting in and murdering us in our sleep," She saw the look on Steve's face and grinned, "Albeit, it would be extremely hard."

Steven, although looking a bit horrified, managed to laugh, "You're an interesting gal, Spence."

Spence beamed at his compliment, "Why, thank you, Steve!" She paused in front of the door to his room, which was right next to hers, "This is your room," She informed softly and adds mysteriously, "Mines right next door!"

Steve couldn't help but to smile at the bubbly girl's personality. It was refreshing and she was different. Most weren't as outgoing or friendly. "So, you avoided my earlier question." Steve pointed out leaning beside his door with a mocking scowl.

Spencer grinned cheekily, "See? Sharp minds." Spencer beckoned the Cap to follow her further down the hall. At the end of the hall was a small living room and kitchen. Spencer swiftly headed towards the small kitchen, "Hungry?" Spencer asked opening up the fridge.

Steve took a seat at the counter, "Um, yes, I am; didn't have much time to eat something when your father popped up at my apartment." Steve replied sounding a bit bashful and embarrassed.

Spencer snorted, "My dad couldn't even sleep the night before. He was way too excited and pumped to be meeting you."

Steve smiled a bit awkwardly, "I could tell."

Spencer eyed the contents of the fridge, "What do you feel like eating, Steve?" Spencer asked contently before glancing up at the nervous man.

His blue eyes met hers, "Anything will do. I'm not really picky."

Spencer decided some simple eggs with ham and bacon would do. "So," Steve dragged out with a knowing smile, "You were going to answer my question?"

Spencer snorts, "You're dying of curiosity, aren't you?"

Steve looked sheepish, "I am. I'm trying to figure out what a girl like you could possibly do," Spencer raised her eyebrow and Steve quickly elaborated, "I am so sorry, I didn't mean it in an insulting way, Spencer!" He looks adorable when he's panicking.

Spencer giggled, "It's fine, Steven," Spencer began to whisk the eggs in a bowl, "I used to be an assassin," Steve's eyes doubled in size, "When I was about four my father decided that raising a toddler in S.H.I.E.L.D Headquarters wasn't exactly ideal and less ideal when I was being bounced between homes from some of my dad's closest friends so," Spencer added salt and black pepper to the eggs, "It was decided between my dad and my godfather that it was time for me to be settled in a real family setting before I started school," Spencer left the eggs and began to cook the bacon in a small frying pan.

"The man who took me in was Clint Barton," Steve's eyes flickered with enlightenment, "He raised me like their own. Clint trained me at a young age and eventually when I turned sixteen I joined S.H.I.E.L.D. I surpassed all of my tests and missions with flying colors and was deemed an official Agent a year later."

"Whoa," Steve was definitely impressed now, "I am impressed."

Spencer smiled kindly, "Thank you."

"But you said you used to be an assassin." Steve frowned slightly when Spencer stopped her story.

A strange look flickered across the girl's face, "When I was twenty-one I was sent on a mission to investigate a potential H.Y.D.R.A threat. I finished him off rather quickly…too quickly. I knew something was off but before I knew it…I was being knocked out. When I regain consciousness I was in an H.Y.D.R.A. testing facility," Steve's face paled slightly remembering how his best friend Bucky Barnes had looked when Steve saved him from the evil clutches of H.Y.D.R.A, "I was there for several months until my father and Dir. Fury managed to locate and rescue me but by the time, they had gotten there. The damage had already been done. I know I wasn't the only experiment to survive. I believe there were two others who had survived H.Y.D.R.A's heinous experiments,"

Spencer added in the ham and Steve watched the girl cook with keen interest, "I don't know what happened to the other two, I'd like to believe that they escaped, but…" Spencer shrugged.

"You're an enhanced?" Steve murmured quietly not finding it hard to believe that Spencer survived such experiments. Steve had only known the young girl for a short time but even he could tell how hard of a fighter Spencer was.

Spencer smiled gently, "Yes, I am which is why my father and Fury did everything in their power to make sure that my name was wiped from everything on this Earth. They upped the security on my father's personnel file, too. H.Y.D.R.A hadn't known I was related to Phil Coulson…at least, I believe they didn't but I was adamant about my father's safety. In order to heal over my ordeal, Fury sentenced me to live as a civilian until he thought I was ready for the field which is where I've been for the past year." Spencer began to add the eggs.

Spencer noticed the look on Steve's face and gave him a fierce look, "Don't give me that look, Steve, I'm not some fragile girl. I was trained to handle these types of situations. I've grown past my trauma at that hell hole. I've come to terms with my powers and I've learned how to control them. I don't regret what happened albeit, it was torture and I wouldn't wish it upon my greatest enemies but, I don't regret surviving. Not in the slightest."

Steve and Spencer slipped into a comfortable silence. Steve, lost in his own thoughts, and Spencer humming an unfamiliar song and finishing up their meal. Eventually, Spencer glanced at Steve. He was deep in thought. She smiled. She liked Steve. He felt like the older brother she always wanted. She felt safe with him and comfortable to talk to.

"How are you adjusting to this new world, Steve?" Spencer had been resisting the urge to ask. He must get that question a lot but Spencer figured that most ask out of courtesy. Spencer hoped that Steve knew that she was asking because she genuinely cared for his well-being.

Steve smiled softly at the girl. He saw the sincere concern in her wide, turquoise-blue eyes, "It's overwhelming," Steve felt the need to be honest with the small assassin. He felt completely at ease with her, which was strange, he had only met her but despite that…he felt as if he had known her his entire life. He wouldn't question it. He knew, by now, that trusting his gut was a must. "There is a lot that I need to catch up on."

Spencer could hear the weight of his words and how much they affected him. She felt a pang of sympathy for the man. He was all alone in this new, strange world. No one was there to teach him or show him the new, exciting things in this era of time. Spencer turned off the stove and reached over to gently place her hand over Steve's clenched one. Baby blue stared up at her with mild bewilderment.

A delicate smile played on Spencer's lips, "If it's okay with you, can I be your modern day teacher? I know how it is…feeling alone and like there's no one to talk to about your problems. I was the same way when I was first rescued from H.Y.D.R.A. I had powers that no one else had and I had to learn how to control them on my own. I couldn't turn to anyone. No one knew how the hell to control electricity and especially when it was inside of a person's body. So, if it's okay with you, I'd like to be your friend. I'll show you everything that you need to know. We can watch movies, go out to the movies, and do normal things to make you feel normal. That way I can catch you up on everything you've missed since you've been gone."

Steve couldn't quite place the feeling he got as he stared at Spencer Coulson. Honest to God, he had never met someone like her. She was so happy and outgoing and friendly and yet…she had the power to make you feel so cared for with just smile. She was able to make Steve feel as if they were old friends. She saw him as a person not just a famous name or person…but as Steve Rogers. The shy and quiet man he once had been but only without the muscles.

Steve couldn't help but to smile at the hopeful girl. It was easy for him to see how loved and cared for she was and why. He had seen the fondness in Agent Romanoff's eyes. He had seen the clear adoration and love in Agent Coulson's eyes. He had seen the sheer pride and tenderness in Director Fury's eye.

And now, he knew why.

Spencer watched the man hopefully as he seemed to be deep in thought, again. She chuckled softly to herself. He often did so but she thought it was adorable. Steve looked up at her after a brief pause. A small smile itched on his youthful, strong features. Spencer's smile turned into a wide grin.

"I'd love that, Spence."

So, about the potential names for Spencer's Avenger name...I'm actually having a small drawing, to make it fair, and seeing which one comes out. I like most of them and knowing how I am...I decided to draw straws and whatever name the straw has, I shall use. Thank you so much for your suggestions. They did help!

Anywho, how did you like this chapter? I definitely like the bond I'm creating for Steve and Spencer.
