Jennifer walked into the main living area of Avengers Tower. Toney had given everyone in the team their own floor in his building. After the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. Jennifer, Natasha, and Steve found themselves out of a job and homeless. So, they found themselves taking up his offer to let them live with him. The others treated it more as a place to pass through. If she was honest, Jennifer had a feeling Natasha would end up more like that. Tony was standing in the kitchen drinking a cup of coffee. Jennifer walked over to him sitting at one of the bar stools.
"That better be decaf." She laughed knowing that it probably wasn't.
"Listen if you're going to live here you better follow my rules. Rule number one you are not allowed to comment on my coffee." Tony said then took a large sip out of the mug. Jennifer held up her hands.
"Very well it's not like I'm a doctor or anything." Jennifer looked down at her hand; her ring was gone. She had to get rid of it during the fall of S.H.E.I.L.D. in case they put a tracker in it.
"On a happier note are you all moved in Pepper wanted to make sure you felt welcome." Jennifer had met Pepper a few times she seemed nice, and Tony adored her even if he had a strange way of showing it.
"Yeah, it didn't take long considering that Steve crashed a ship into the building where I lived. Destroying all my things." Tony shook his head.
"That Rogers does understand how to do anything delicately." Jennifer smiled at his comment.
"True but he is better at it than Thor." Tony snapped his finger pointing at her.
"You have a point. Did you lose anything valuable?" Jennifer snorted slightly then blushed not meaning to make that noise.
"Tony my life is so classified I don't even have a picture apart from the ones that the papers get." Jennifer's phone went off. She looked at it standing up.
"Natasha want some help with something. Meaning she wants me to finish moving her in so she can go to the gym." She explained before heading out of the room.
Jennifer stepped off the elevator on to her floor 3 hours later. She rubbed her back. Natasha had, in fact, wanted to practice with her. In the process, Jennifer was reminded that she would never be as good at fighting as Natasha. She set her things down before heading for her room. Something in her sitting room, however, caught her eye. Pepper had seen to it that Jennifer's room looked as far from a lab as possible picking warm colors and soft fabrics to fill the room. Jennifer didn't mind it reminded her of a life that might have been. However, that was not what had caught her eye. What had caught her eye was the large picture of her parents hanging on the wall. It was a canvas print that hung above her couch. Jennifer stared at that picture. She didn't remember it being taken. Their faces familiar but no true memories still lingered in her mind of them. The room had blocked most of them out. Looking around she started to notice the other pictures that filled the room. They were of her and the Avengers. She shook her head fighting back the tears.
"Do you like it." Jennifer turned to find Tony standing by the elevator. Jennifer ran over to him giving him a hug.
"How did you get that picture. Fury said that they were all destroyed." Tony looked down at his hands.
"I had to digitally make it Jennifer. I used an algorithm to determine what your parents looked like and piece it together with the information in your file." Jennifer gave a small nod.
"That makes more sense." Tony looked at her growing stiff. As if bracing for something.
"Are you mad I can take it away." Jennifer shook her head walking him over to the picture.
"I have no true memory of what my parents look like. If this is the closest, I can ever get to seeing them then it's good enough for me." She pointed at all the other picture. "Now where did you get those." Tony waved his hands.
"That was easy. I had Jarvis pull them up." Jennifer nodded picking up a picture of her and Clint.
"Thanks, Tony you didn't have to do this." Tony waved off her thanks.
"Sure, I did we're friends." Jennifer smiled at the words.
"Yes…yes we are."
