Ready to break out
Sammy was feeling restless. A different sort of restless than she was used to feeling. With several jobs under her belt, she wanted to take on another as soon as possible, but Mikel was holding her back. He said he'd call when it was time, but it was taking too long. Their father would hold her back and claim she was too young and inexperienced, but you don't get experience by burying yourself in school and following the rules. She wanted that degree, but she could do both. She was good. It was in the genes ... from him. They didn't have to like Nick Fury to use the abilities and training he'd given them.

She was tired of playing at being the perfect daughter as Mikel had instructed. She belonged with her brother and the others, but she was a member of his team and he told her to stay.

For now, she gathered food from the kitchen, a couple of beers from the fridge, and found a quiet corner to hit the books.

	Qamar pokes his head into the room. "...Sammy? Jarvis let me in..." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	She looked up from her book, blinking with surprise to see Qamar here. In the Avengers mansion. Did she give him the address? It had to be Nightingale. "Hey. Come on in." In full at-home study mode, she was comfortably dressed, comfortably slouched with her feet up, and a dirty plate with one empty beer bottle next to it. The second one was close to hand.

	"Hey. I was in the neighborhood, and I thought I'd stop by and see how you were, if that's okay." He glances at the books. "Studying?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It beats jogging for an afternoon activity." She put her feet down and motioned him to come over. "Make yourself at home and tell me what brings you to the neighborhood." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He pauses. "Well... to be honest? To see you." He steps forward. His heart is in his throat, and he wonders again how she does that to him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She blushed a little at the lift in her mood from his words. It had to be the beer. She's not a drinker by nature because of the effect alcohol can have on her control. Control be damned. She got from her chair to greet him with a hug and soft kiss. "I'm glad you stopped by." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 02:17 am UTC (link)
	He's nervous around her still. Why is he so nervous? He's faced off with terrorists. And yet Sammy still can make him nervous. He hugs her back, and looks over at her as they break the kiss. "What... what are you studying? Did you need some help?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-31 02:23 am UTC (link)
	"It's the second week, there's not a lot to drown in yet." She tugged his hand over to the empty chair she'd propped her bare feet on and flopped back in her own. "Is this a social call or a study date? Because I hear there are different rules for each one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 02:27 am UTC (link)
	"Um... I guess if you don't need help studying, it can be a social call." He takes a seat. "I mean, unless you need to study, in which case, I'm happy to help out, even if it's not in a class I've taken..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"It's a preventative measure. In case I need to leave for a few days or so. For...you know. Work." She grinned and reached for his hand. Lots of restless energy, partly from being Sammy, partly from Mikel's news that there would be another job soon.

"Working on my overachiever badge, I know. You're the best distraction I've had all afternoon. Did Jarvis try to feed and water you on the way in? I could run down to the kitchen and pick up something if you like. Won't take but a minute and thirty seconds." She winked.

	"I... only if it's not a problem," he says. "And I could come with you... if you don't mind me meeting the Avengers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-31 02:51 am UTC (link)
	"Why would I mind? The world has met the Avengers." Cue another blush. She'd never even given him her address, just her phone number. "Come on. I have some apologizing to do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 02:55 am UTC (link)
	"What apologizing?" he asks, confused but getting to his feet to follow her. "What happened?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James was already in the kitchen looking for something to eat. He was a growing boy after all. School didn't start for another week and James was spending his last few days of freedom playing all the video games he could. Even he needed to stop for food once and awhile. He was currently searching the fridge for any leftovers from last night. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-31 03:49 am UTC (link)
	Seeing a guy with his face first in the fridge was nothing new around the mansion. The shock of red hair told her who it was. "Hey, James. Are you eating all the pasta from last night?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Holding Sammy's hand is an Arabic man who looks like he may have just swallowed his tongue. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James pulled his head out of the fridge to see who had just come into the kitchen. "No, I'm looking for it. I think someone got to it already." Then he noticed the man with Sammy. "Hey." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-31 05:22 am UTC (link)
	That someone was Sammy. She'd made a sizable dent in it earlier; somebody else finished it off. Not the time to admit to it. "James, this is Qamar el-Sayed." She squeezed Qamar's hand. "He's a good friend of mine. Qamar, this is James Romanov-Rogers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 05:49 am UTC (link)
	"Mr. Romanov-Rogers," Qamar says, offering his hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nice to meet you. Please call me James," he said as he took the hand and shook it. Mom was trying to teach him manners. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 05:55 am UTC (link)
	"You can call me Qamar," he offers. "Are you... one of the Avengers, too?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	next_avenger 2009-08-31 05:57 am UTC (link)
	James nodded and released Qamar's hand. "Yeah. Are you Sammy's boyfriend?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2009-08-31 06:10 am UTC (link)
	"I think he has to ask me to go steady first." Sammy's eyes danced. "It would take a brave man, James. You know how cranky I am in the mornings." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nightingalesong 2009-08-31 07:00 am UTC (link)
	Qamar blinks. "Then... Sammy? Uh... want to go steady?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	next_avenger 2009-08-31 07:04 am UTC (link)
	"I know. I got between you and the coffeepot one morning. Never again." He chuckled when Qamar asked her to go steady. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
