Bruce BannerXReader

It has been a couple of months since SHIELD was compromised with Hydra. The only agents that were trust worthy were a select few, Agent Clint Barton, Agent Natasha Romanhoff, Agent Maria Hill, Agent (F/Name) (L/Name), and Director Nick Fury.

As safety reason SHEILD had to go into hiding, although the Avengers were still in the public eye. Director Fury had assigned Agent (L/Name) to keeping Bruce from turning into the Hulk, while around Tony. So when Bruce was up for days at a time in the lab so was (Name). At times Tony would just walk in and make Bruce tense, before he did anything. (Name) discovered that the longer Bruce stayed up the harder it was for him to stay calm. Today happens to be one of those days, and Tony being over excited about everything and really wants to see Bruce Hulk-out.

Bruce and (Name) have been up for the last three days, while Bruce was working on an experiment for Fury and SHEILD when Tony blissfully walks in with his head held high. The way he was behaving said that whatever happened during the night was something he really wanted.

“Good Morning you guys!” Tony was smiling ear-to-ear and walked with a spring in his step. Sitting close to Bruce I could see his shoulders tense up and he didn’t bother to look up.

“Morning Tony.” Bruce said, I repeated shortly after. I had to put my book down so I could keep a close eye on the two of them. Being awake for three days was nothing for me, but it made Bruce easily anything…irritated, annoyed, and susceptible to becoming Hulk.

“Hey babe, why don’t you go get us some coffee, because the way you two look says that you need it.” Tony came walking over to us.

“Already texted Pepper asking her to pick us up something. So coffee, for me, and tea, for Bruce, is on its way here. Remind me to thank your assistant for the help.”

“Well I will tell you now that I am happy to help in any way possible.” Pepper came walking in with everything. She handed Bruce his tea, a coffee for me, and she even pick something up for Tony. “So then now that we all have this, I need to take Tony for some serious work meetings.”

“Take away, I don’t need him for anything. Although Bruce might, you’ll want to ask him.” Pepper looked at me and shook her head. She turned towards Bruce and asked if he needed anything to do with Tony. Bruce shook his head no and Tony was dragged out by Pepper.

~~~~~~Time Skip of 4 hours~~~~~~

Tony was walking back into the lab. It was just the two of us, because Bruce was in the restroom. Tony sat down at his work bench; he started to tinker with the suit that he was currently working on. As I was sitting there my phone started ringing in my pocket, I start pulling it out of my pocket to see who would be calling me. On the screen it read ‘The Boss’.

I stepped away to answer my phone, also so Tony did not hear into my conversation I walked out of the room.

“Hello?” I answered the phone.

“Agent (L/Name). I need you for a very important matter here at the base. Please come in fast.”

“Sir what do you want me to do about Stark and Dr. Banner. That is the reason I am sitting here in the first place.”

“I will have Barton sit in the lab with them.”

“Not meaning to be rude here sir, but I think Romanhoff would be better for the job. Barton could just play right along with Stark’s pranks.”

“Romanoff is coming in for the information session too. So it will have to be Barton, sorry Agent.”

“Yes sir. I will be there as soon as possible; I will leave here as soon as Barton comes in to watch.”

“Then I will get him there as soon as possible.”

Once I hung up the phone I walked back into the lab to see Tony and Bruce working away at what they were doing before. As I walked back into the lab both the boys looked up and acted like nothing new was happening, although technically there was nothing new I have been here for months watching over them.

After sitting there for 15 minutes Clint finally walks in with some food and a coffee.

“Alright (L/Name), I’ll take over from here. See you soon.”

“Barton, watch don’t join if anything happens understood. I don’t want a phone call saying that you did end up joining.”

“Yes ma’am.”

I walked out of the lab heading for my car so I could head to the new Top-Secret base that we all worked really hard to make the new SHEILD. As I was driving I started to worry for Bruce, having a crush on him and making sure he did not change into the Hulk was challenging. Now he has both Clint and Tony in the lab with him, the last time those three were left alone the Hulk came out in 10 minutes of me being gone. That is also the reason I hardly do any field work anymore, so I could keep an eye on the two of them and make sure nothing bad happens.

Pulling into the base parking lot Fury was standing there waiting for me. With the file that he wanted to show Natasha and I. When I walked out of the car he handed me the file, and started walking away from me. I started to follow him and read the file as we walked. The paperwork that was in the file was a mission that he must really want me to go on. As I am reading the file there is a Hydra base that is in France and he must want me to take it down.

When we walk into the meeting room Natasha is sitting there waiting for us. The Director goes to the head of the table and sits; I follow him to sitting across from Natasha.

“Well ladies this is what you are going to do. You are going to France and taking down this Hydra base, but we need one of you to be bait. Since both of you know French then you can fight over who will do what.”

“I will take the bait; Natasha is already a part of the Avengers she will be easily recognized as such. I will have a bit more of freedom if they get to me.” I volunteer myself for this.

“Very well Agent. This is your choice just know that if something goes wrong you could die because we have to take the place down. Romanhoff if you can’t save her of help her, leave her behind understood.”

“Sir I don’t think I can leave behind a friend if she is in that kind of danger.” Natasha is fighting for me, just so I could come back from this alive.

“Romanhoff leave her, (L/Name) understands the dangers and the possibility of never coming back is high. Correct Agent?”

“He is right Natasha; I understand and are willing to do this. Just promise me if anything does go wrong get out of there and fast.” She looks between the two of us and finally agrees to what we are saying, not happy but understands.

We are then debriefed and are dismissed told we need to come back tomorrow morning we leave at seven sharp. Steve and Clint are told to take turns watching Bruce to make sure nothing happens to him while I am gone. Steve makes me comfortable, but Clint is still in the dog house after the last time.

When we get back to the tower I head straight for the lab to make sure nothing bad happened. I didn’t receive any calls but that does not make me feel any better. When I walk in there the three of them are at different ends of the lab. Tony with his suit, Bruce with his chemicals, Clint at the table in-between them, and Steve watching them too.

“Why is Steve here?” I walk in looking at all of them confused.

“No reason, he was just visiting. Right Steve?” Tony said and looked at Steve. I turned towards Steve and he nervously shook his head.

“Okay, then you won’t mind me watching the security cameras I had JARVIS install the last time I left all of you alone in this lab. JARVIS can you tell me why Steve is also in the lab?”

Everyone tensed when I said those words.

“The Hulk made a shot appearance this afternoon Miss.” The AI answered for my question and set off a chain reaction in me.

“See that’s what I thought was going to be said. What were you all thinking? What are you going to do while I am on my mission with Natasha? Kill each other? The whole reason I was here was to make sure Bruce didn’t get stressed or angry, but now I don’t know if I can trust any of you alone here. I have to call Fury and cancel this mission.” I turn around and start walking towards the door.

“You’re going back out into the field?” I knew the owner of the voice all too well after helping him relax many times.

“I was, but now I’m not too sure that I should after today. Tony and Clint seem unable to stop themselves when it comes to finding your buttons. Sorry Bruce but it seems that I am stuck in the lab until they can.”

“Wait, (Name)! You’re a field agent being here just stresses you out too. You should go on the mission.” Clint was walking towards you as he said this.

“Then you all have to promise me that this won’t happen again. Because Natasha is going with me and you’re the only ones going to be in the tower while we are gone. We don’t want to come back to a destroyed house.”

“I promise to try my hardest on keeping the other guy under control. Just go.”

“Bruce it’s not just you that has to promise everyone else does too.”

“We promise, babe. No go get this mission done and hurry back.” Tony was pushing you out of the doors.

~~~~~~~~Time Skip to Being in France~~~~~~~

While here you are to act like a single woman who is living her days as any single women would. Only catch was you had to speak French, but all the food here was always the best when served fresh out of the oven.

Two weeks after sitting on bait duty, Hydra must have realized you were on their sent. They sent some guys to come and “get you” while you were shopping for the food you were going to have for dinner. They grabbed you by the arms and dragged you to their van, just a short distance away from the shopping district.

‘These guys are taking me with all these people around? Either they are not very bright or this is a normal thing for them.’ I thought as a bag thrown over my head so I couldn’t see anything. They also zip tied my hands and my feet. So there was fighting my way out of this one at the moment.

When the van came to a stop I was handed to someone else the just carried me over their shoulder. The swooping that automatic doors make indicated that I was now in a building, but where is the building located?

‘Hopefully Natasha gets here soon. I don’t want to be here for too long.’ Then I was thrown on the ground and the bag ripped off my head. My surroundings were dark and I could not see anything that was 3 feet in front of me. It sounded like a cage door was slammed shut so I was now clearly alone in the room.

~~~~~~~4 Hours later~~~~~~~~

Someone finally made themselves known to me. They walked in and were wearing a white lab coat. One just like Bruce wears on days he is working with other scientist.

“Well, well, well, what do we have here? A SHEILD agent, here to steal from us or destroy us? Since I heard that they were doing that now.” His accent was a very hard French one. “Bring her to the lab we have a present for her from the boss. A very painful present. Keep her tied up though, don’t want her to run away from us now do we.” He turned around and started to walk away, and then two guys picked me up and carried me after him.

His lab was pure white and hurt my eyes. Being in the dark room made it hard to look at anything. As I was being strapped down to the lab table, I realized something bad, really bad was going to happen. I started to thrash about, when the cut my hands free they both grabbed one and strapped me to the table. There was another strap that went around my chest and stomach. My feet and legs were the last they strapped down. The whole time the lab-coat-guy was laughing and smiling smugly.

“Well then should we get started?” The guy started picking up syringes of the colorful liquid, and surgical knifes. This was either his experiment time, on me, or torture. Maybe even both. He first cut a little into my upper arm, and took some of the blood that came out. I was fighting the urgency to scream from the pain. He still was smiling down at me. “Now dear, if I wanted you to scream more cuts would have been made. Though this chemical will help you with the thoughts that are going and going to go through your head. We call this the magnifier. It will increase things that you are good at. You Agent (L/Name) are the brains of this operation not the muscle. So this will help with the little brain of yours, and make it better.” He then pushed the needle part into the side of my head. That enlisted an ear splitting scream to come bubbling out of my throat.

There were six more shots like that to go into my head, each of them making me scream more than the last. He would come back every hour or so to give them to me. In other words I have been strapped to this table for now seven hours. I was giving up hope that Natasha was going to complete her part of the mission. Since it was my job to get in, hers to follow and get what Fury wanted from them.

Suddenly the alarms start going off and everyone outside is running and screaming. The man who was over seeing my “development” ran out the doors to see what was going on. When he came back through the door his face was as white as a sheet. “You my pet are not ready for the final shot, but you are getting it any way. Because it seems your friend is here and going to want to get you soon.” The shot did to me what the other did; only this time it made me see stars because it hurt so much. This must have tipped Natasha off on where I was located, for she came bursting through the door gun held high in the air. Her face said that she would shot if he tried anything else. “Welcome Agent Romanhoff. Someone was nice enough to tip us off that they saw the two of you together. The boss then put two and two together and discovered this one to be another one of your agents. So as our gift to you we modified her to make her a better agent.”

The gun shot made me flinch from the noise. The guy fell over and held his shoulder from the pain that he was feeling. “What did you do to her?” Natasha was furious, and after knowing her for so long I knew not to say anything to stop her. The man just laughed at her, which triggered more shots to be fired only this time in his legs. “I said, what did you do to her?” The guy was still laughing and was not helping his case against the Black Widow, for she shot again. Only this time she made sure he never laughed again, or even took another breath. “Fine don’t tell me I will just take your files that are on this desk for reading material on the way back.”

She turned around and put the files on my chest to hold and started to unstrap me from the table. I had a hard time standing, let alone walking. We were sitting ducks, waddling out of the building, just because I felt like everything was on fire. Every muscle and bone hurt in my body, nothing felt the same after the first shot he gave me. This was not going to end well for me and I knew that. So when the helicopter landed and took us away, the building blew up.

“Well then for not being in the field for a long time that could have gone better. Don’t you agree Nat?” I turn to look at her after a while. She is reading the file and her face is as white as a ghost. She turns to slowly look at me though. “What does it say Nat? Please tell me I at least won’t die from that stuff.”

“I don’t know (N/Name). This is either really bad or an okay-we-can-deal-with-it factor.” She turned back to look at the file.

“What does that mean?” I go to reach for the file in her hand, but she just keeps it out of my reach. “Natasha let me read the file! Now!” The helicopter shutters and dips in altitude after that. “What is going on?”

“It’s you. You just did that (Name).” She looks at me with eyes that I have never seen from her before, pity.

“That is impossible. I don’t have powers, I can’t have powers.” I turn to look out the window. “Right Natasha?” She didn’t answer me. She didn’t even look at me when I turned back to look at her. Then all that time in the lab finally caught up to me. “No, oh God no. What have they done to me? What am I going to do now?”

Natasha held me in her arms as I cried. I was crying all the way back to base. She walked me all the way to the medical wing for the doctor to look at the cut on my arm, while she went and reported in for the two of us.

~~~~~~~With Natasha~~~~~~~~

She walked into the meeting room to find the rest of the Avengers and Fury. He looked up and had a sad face, because he was most likely going to be told that he lost an agent in the field. Although he was curious why she held an actual file and a flash drive. “What is the meaning of the two different files Agent?”

“Sir, they did something to (Name), and you’re not going to like it.” She handed both items over the Fury. “The paper files are on (Name). You are going to want to read that before you see her at the hospital wing. She is getting a checkup right now.”

“You both were to report back to me so I knew she wasn’t dead Agent.”

“What?!” Everyone else shouted and stood up right after the sentence.

“You sent her on a mission that she could have died on! Fury she was in a lab for almost two years, this was her first field mission since then!” Tony yelled.

“This was uncalled for. Now she is in the hospital wing! Please tell me she is alright Nat!” Clint was to follow.

Bruce was in shell shock, all the guys knew he had feelings for the (h/color) haired woman. She had to be alright she was the only person who could keep him calm. The whole reason the guys were even at the base was because they could not keep their promise to her. The other guy came to visit at least once every day since she left. He needed her to be here, he needed her to be alright, he needed to tell her how he felt about her.

Fury ignored the boys and their little rants as he read the new found file on his Agent. When he finished he looked up to find Natasha looking at him, waiting for his reaction. Fury didn’t know how to react to this new information about (Name)…she had telekinetic powers. That could work out for the best, as soon as she learned to control them. He put the file down on the table and started making his way to the hospital wing to talk to his telekinetic Agent. He walked through the door and found her sitting there staring at her hands like she had done something wrong.

“I’m sorry sir, I ruined the mission. They knew we were there and I let them get the best of me.” (Name) kept staring at her hands.

“At least you’re alive Agent. Although now you have telekinetic powers that you are going to have to learn to control. Romanhoff wrote at the top of the file that it is linked with your emotions, so we know where to start. But first I need you at the top of your game, so rest for now.” Fury turned to walk out of the room.

Natasha came walking into the room and sat next to me. “Coulson told me that the guys did a terrible job of keeping their promise. They all now feel horrible and want to say sorry to you. Come on in guys.”

In came the others and had puppy eyes on and putty lips. “We’re sorry (Name). Will you forgive us?”

“Mhm, you promised not to make the other guy come out. So I should ask, how many times did he show?” I looked at them all and they all looked to the ground.

“Six times in the last week.” I heard from Bruce.

“Six times!” What were any of you thinking? Once fine but six in the last week! Natasha and I were gone for a month!” They all stare at me with wide eyes and mouths hanging open. “What? Why are you all looking at me like that?”

“No one said anything (N/Name).” Clint said.

“No but I thought that.” Bruce turned to look at Clint then back at me. My face fell and I looked at Natasha.

“Looks like there is something new to this that Fury is going to want to know about.” Natasha stood up from her seat and almost made it to the door when Tony grabbed her arm to stop her.

“What is going on? Why can she hear Bruce’s thoughts?” Tony was starting to worry and get scared for he knew something wasn’t right when Fury left the room after he read the file Natasha handed him.

“Hydra did some experiments on me. That’s what happened Tony. They gave me telekinetic powers, and that is possible how I can read Bruce’s mind. The powers seemed to be linked to my emotions.”

Tony dropped his hand from Natasha’s arm. The others just looked at me and starred. As they looked at me Natasha slipped out to tell Fury of this new development. They kept staring at me even long after Natasha returned from telling Fury, she sat back down next to me.

“Okay guys please stop staring at me I feel like a freak enough as it is.”

I guess calling myself a freak snapped them out of it because they gave me an angry look. “You are not a freak (N/Name)!” Bruce looked at me. “You are beautiful and smart. Considerate and trustworthy. A freak you are not! If you are a freak then I guess we all are too. But you are not a freak, and I will still love you all the same. With or without your powers.”

I just starred at Bruce long and hard, with my mouth hanging open. Natasha was sitting there smiling, since she knew that I have a crush on the man. The guys were smiling too. Like everyone knew how we felt about each other except us.

“I-I-I love you too Bruce.” Bruce came over to the side of the bed and gentle put his lips against yours. You both pulled away. They put your foreheads against each other.

~~~~~~~Extended Ending~~~~~~~~~

It has been a year since the mission, and I am still sitting in the lab making sure no one angers Bruce or that he stresses out to much. But instead of having to threaten with my gun, I use an invisible wall. Always is fun to watch Tony run into that wall. Another nice thing is that I can read his mind and search for the ways he is going to attempt at getting the other guy to come out.

There have been times when I am not in the lab and shopping with Natasha that I get calls for me to come save him from the other guy. Turns out I am also liked by the “green giant” and Bruce, so a bonus treat for not being killed by him. Although we have both been known to gang up on Tony after Bruce comes back.

So everything is back to normal…for the most part. Just a few differences such as: BRUCE AND I ARE DATING!! Oh and my powers, but that is easy to get past.

As I was being strapped down to the lab table, I realized something bad, really bad was going to happen. I started to thrash about, when the cut my hands free they both grabbed one and strapped me to the table. There was another strap that went around my chest and stomach. My feet and legs were the last they strapped down. The whole time the lab-coat-guy was laughing and smiling smugly.

“Well then should we get started?” The guy started picking up syringes of the colorful liquid, and surgical knifes. This was either his experiment time, on me, or torture. Maybe even both. He first cut a little into my upper arm, and took some of the blood that came out. I was fighting the urgency to scream from the pain. He still was smiling down at me. “Now dear, if I wanted you to scream more cuts would have been made. Though this chemical will help you with the thoughts that are going and going to go through your head. We call this the magnifier. It will increase things that you are good at. You Agent (L/Name) are the brains of this operation not the muscle. So this will help with the little brain of yours, and make it better.” He then pushed the needle part into the side of my head. That enlisted an ear splitting scream to come bubbling out of my throat.

There were six more shots like that to go into my head, each of them making me scream more than the last. He would come back every hour or so to give them to me. In other words I have been strapped to this table for now seven hours. I was giving up hope that Natasha was going to complete her part of the mission. Since it was my job to get in, hers to follow and get what Fury wanted from them.

Suddenly the alarms start going off and everyone outside is running and screaming. The man who was over seeing my “development” ran out the doors to see what was going on. When he came back through the door his face was as white as a sheet. “You my pet are not ready for the final shot, but you are getting it any way. Because it seems your friend is here and going to want to get you soon.” The shot did to me what the other did; only this time it made me see stars because it hurt so much. This must have tipped Natasha off on where I was located, for she came bursting through the door gun held high in the air. Her face said that she would shot if he tried anything else. “Welcome Agent Romanhoff. Someone was nice enough to tip us off that they saw the two of you together. The boss then put two and two together and discovered this one to be another one of your agents. So as our gift to you we modified her to make her a better agent.”

The gun shot made me flinch from the noise. The guy fell over and held his shoulder from the pain that he was feeling. “What did you do to her?” Natasha was furious, and after knowing her for so long I knew not to say anything to stop her. The man just laughed at her, which triggered more shots to be fired only this time in his legs. “I said, what did you do to her?” The guy was still laughing and was not helping his case against the Black Widow, for she shot again. Only this time she made sure he never laughed again, or even took another breath. “Fine don’t tell me I will just take your files that are on this desk for reading material on the way back.”

She turned around and put the files on my chest to hold and started to unstrap me from the table. I had a hard time standing, let alone walking. We were sitting ducks, waddling out of the building, just because I felt like everything was on fire. Every muscle and bone hurt in my body, nothing felt the same after the first shot he gave me. This was not going to end well for me and I knew that. So when the helicopter landed and took us away, the building blew up.

“Well then for not being in the field for a long time that could have gone better. Don’t you agree Nat?” I turn to look at her after a while. She is reading the file and her face is as white as a ghost. She turns to slowly look at me though. “What does it say Nat? Please tell me I at least won’t die from that stuff.”

“I don’t know (N/Name). This is either really bad or an okay-we-can-deal-with-it factor.” She turned back to look at the file.

“What does that mean?” I go to reach for the file in her hand, but she just keeps it out of my reach. “Natasha let me read the file! Now!” The helicopter shutters and dips in altitude after that. “What is going on?”

“It’s you. You just did that (Name).” She looks at me with eyes that I have never seen from her before, pity.

“That is impossible. I don’t have powers, I can’t have powers.” I turn to look out the window. “Right Natasha?” She didn’t answer me. She didn’t even look at me when I turned back to look at her. Then all that time in the lab finally caught up to me. “No, oh God no. What have they done to me? What am I going to do now?”

Natasha held me in her arms as I cried. I was crying all the way back to base. She walked me all the way to the medical wing for the doctor to look at the cut on my arm, while she went and reported in for the two of us.

~~~~~~~With Natasha~~~~~~~~

She walked into the meeting room to find the rest of the Avengers and Fury. He looked up and had a sad face, because he was most likely going to be told that he lost an agent in the field. Although he was curious why she held an actual file and a flash drive. “What is the meaning of the two different files Agent?”

“Sir, they did something to (Name), and you’re not going to like it.” She handed both items over the Fury. “The paper files are on (Name). You are going to want to read that before you see her at the hospital wing. She is getting a checkup right now.”

“You both were to report back to me so I knew she wasn’t dead Agent.”

“What?!” Everyone else shouted and stood up right after the sentence.

“You sent her on a mission that she could have died on! Fury she was in a lab for almost two years, this was her first field mission since then!” Tony yelled.

“This was uncalled for. Now she is in the hospital wing! Please tell me she is alright Nat!” Clint was to follow.

Bruce was in shell shock, all the guys knew he had feelings for the (h/color) haired woman. She had to be alright she was the only person who could keep him calm. The whole reason the guys were even at the base was because they could not keep their promise to her. The other guy came to visit at least once every day since she left. He needed her to be here, he needed her to be alright, he needed to tell her how he felt about her.

Fury ignored the boys and their little rants as he read the new found file on his Agent. When he finished he looked up to find Natasha looking at him, waiting for his reaction. Fury didn’t know how to react to this new information about (Name)…she had telekinetic powers. That could work out for the best, as soon as she learned to control them. He put the file down on the table and started making his way to the hospital wing to talk to his telekinetic Agent. He walked through the door and found her sitting there staring at her hands like she had done something wrong.

“I’m sorry sir, I ruined the mission. They knew we were there and I let them get the best of me.” (Name) kept staring at her hands.

“At least you’re alive Agent. Although now you have telekinetic powers that you are going to have to learn to control. Romanhoff wrote at the top of the file that it is linked with your emotions, so we know where to start. But first I need you at the top of your game, so rest for now.” Fury turned to walk out of the room.

Natasha came walking into the room and sat next to me. “Coulson told me that the guys did a terrible job of keeping their promise. They all now feel horrible and want to say sorry to you. Come on in guys.”

In came the others and had puppy eyes on and putty lips. “We’re sorry (Name). Will you forgive us?”

“Mhm, you promised not to make the other guy come out. So I should ask, how many times did he show?” I looked at them all and they all looked to the ground.

“Six times in the last week.” I heard from Bruce.

“Six times!” What were any of you thinking? Once fine but six in the last week! Natasha and I were gone for a month!” They all stare at me with wide eyes and mouths hanging open. “What? Why are you all looking at me like that?”

“No one said anything (N/Name).” Clint said.

“No but I thought that.” Bruce turned to look at Clint then back at me. My face fell and I looked at Natasha.

“Looks like there is something new to this that Fury is going to want to know about.” Natasha stood up from her seat and almost made it to the door when Tony grabbed her arm to stop her.

“What is going on? Why can she hear Bruce’s thoughts?” Tony was starting to worry and get scared for he knew something wasn’t right when Fury left the room after he read the file Natasha handed him.

“Hydra did some experiments on me. That’s what happened Tony. They gave me telekinetic powers, and that is possible how I can read Bruce’s mind. The powers seemed to be linked to my emotions.”

Tony dropped his hand from Natasha’s arm. The others just looked at me and starred. As they looked at me Natasha slipped out to tell Fury of this new development. They kept staring at me even long after Natasha returned from telling Fury, she sat back down next to me.

“Okay guys please stop staring at me I feel like a freak enough as it is.”

I guess calling myself a freak snapped them out of it because they gave me an angry look. “You are not a freak (N/Name)!” Bruce looked at me. “You are beautiful and smart. Considerate and trustworthy. A freak you are not! If you are a freak then I guess we all are too. But you are not a freak, and I will still love you all the same. With or without your powers.”

I just starred at Bruce long and hard, with my mouth hanging open. Natasha was sitting there smiling, since she knew that I have a crush on the man. The guys were smiling too. Like everyone knew how we felt about each other except us.

“I-I-I love you too Bruce.” Bruce came over to the side of the bed and gentle put his lips against yours. You both pulled away. They put your foreheads against each other.

~~~~~~~Extended Ending~~~~~~~~~

It has been a year since the mission, and I am still sitting in the lab making sure no one angers Bruce or that he stresses out to much. But instead of having to threaten with my gun, I use an invisible wall. Always is fun to watch Tony run into that wall. Another nice thing is that I can read his mind and search for the ways he is going to attempt at getting the other guy to come out.

There have been times when I am not in the lab and shopping with Natasha that I get calls for me to come save him from the other guy. Turns out I am also liked by the “green giant” and Bruce, so a bonus treat for not being killed by him. Although we have both been known to gang up on Tony after Bruce comes back.

So everything is back to normal…for the most part. Just a few differences such as: BRUCE AND I ARE DATING!! Oh and my powers, but that is easy to get past.
