Trying that outside life thing...
With the summer stretching ahead of her, Sammy had to do something other than help clean the hydrobase and train. She told her parents she wanted the summer to relax and suspected relaxing meant a little more than wasting a few thousand rounds at the shooting range. A girl didn't get a life with a pair of noise-canceling headphones on.

She found her first outside activity in the paper. Rooftop Films seemed like it might be fun, and it was something she didn't need a date to see. The open bar afterward would be decided on when the time came.

"No, thanks. Your roommate must have a lot patience getting to orange juice in the morning."

"Uh... yeah. But she vanished after she went to do laundry the other day. It's a problem if the dryer is secretly an al-Qaeda agent, right?"

"I'm just awesome like that," he replies. "But don't tell anyone... they find out, and AIM'll be servicing the dishwasher."

Sammy burst out laughing and almost immediately clapped a hand over her mouth to hold it back. People around them were settling in to watch the movie.

He shares another red vine as the movie begins.

Two hours later after the lights went up, Sammy had to hunt for the shoes she kicked off to get comfortable. Halfway through the movie she found herself getting far too comfortable and leaning against Qamar's shoulder.

"Are you heading to the bar they've set up?" she asked, still looking at her shoes.

"I'd like that." She looked up and smiled. "Only one. After two I start thinking that it would be funny if J.J. Jameson ended up with a spangled g-string in his pocket for the last gossip column in the Bugle."

He laughs. "Then what happens at three?"

He leads her towards the bar, taking her arm in his.

That he didn't ask where or what surprised her, but in a nice way. She still wasn't sure how she felt about it.

"Raspberry lemonade, with vodka instead of rum, please."

Rest assured the thought occurred to him, however.

"You heard the lady," he tells the bartender. "And a soda water for myself."

At least one of them would be completely sober, which is where they went wrong in touring Europe's flesh clubs with Sarah. Sammy still didn't believe that girl in Amsterdam kissed her.

The drink satisfied her sweet tooth with a hit of alcohol to relax her. "Did you decide to torture yourself with summer classes?"

He nods. "I'm here on a student visa. I may as well earn it." He takes a sip from his water. "And you?"

She shook her head. "This will be the first summer since I graduated high school that I'll take off. No summer classes, no S.H.I.E.L.D. cadet training. I think my parents had me checked to make sure I'm still me."

Sammy shook her head. "Nope. We split a while ago. I'm working with some friends on a renovation project, but otherwise I'm seeing what else there is to do in New York. Like Rooftop Films. And working on controlling ... you know."

He nods.

"Yeah. Thanks for... letting me in on... you know."

He gives her a small quiet smile, standing close.

"Thanks for not freaking out about it." The drink didn't have that much alcohol in it, but she was feeling a little warm. "I'm getting a lot better. More control. I can't be easily startled into one these days."

"Really?" He leans forward. "Then maybe I can try this..."

And he leans close to her to kiss her.

It was a near thing. The rush vs control. Both could be enjoyable under the right circumstances. Control won as she leaned in to kiss him back.

After a long moment, he opens his eyes and breaks the kiss.

"You didn't jump away," he says quietly with a smile.

She blinked up at him. "I was supposed to?"
