Work Therapy (open)
Tim had taken a week off after he had been rescued and it helped clear his head. He had argued that he was fine and wanted to get back in the lab, but they forced him to take a week off. As soon as he was allowed back in his lab he got back to work. Work was the best way for him to deal with what happened and to move on.

He /did/ have a lot to catch up on and had eagerly thrown himself at it.

	Sammy moved from the spot she appeared in to get a better look at him. "Just between us, Timmy, are you all right? Tell me straight." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm good, Pigtails. I'm waiting for my Official Kidnapping/Abduction badge to come in the mail now that I've earned it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She shook her head. "Let's not turn it into a frequent kidnapping card. You're supposed to be safe in the lab." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There's a lot of things I'm supposed to be, but I was never good at living up to expectations." He smiled at her. "Besides, I have you to come save me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-20 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes." Her jaw tightened just a tiny bit. "Guess we'll never make a field agent out of you now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-20 11:49 pm UTC (link)
	Tim noticed the jaw clenching. He knew all her signals. He should. He had been watching closely for a very long time. "What? What did I say wrong?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-20 11:55 pm UTC (link)
	That made her blink. "What? You didn't say anything wrong. Except for the part where you only took a week off. You have more vacation time coming. Didn't you want to climb some fake mountain in Europe?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 12:00 am UTC (link)
	"You're mad and you're clenching your jaw. What's really bothering you and don't say that I only took a week off. We both know you would have taken less time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 12:27 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, but I'm a field agent. I have to be able to bounce back instantly and keep on with the mission. I'm working on a mad with the colonel, not you. Although you could probably use an academy refresher course if you're going to be on the kidnap list." She hugged him. "We need to keep a better eye on you. You can't be replaced." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 12:31 am UTC (link)
	"He didn't send me out in the field," Tim said as he hugged her. "I was sent to a research lab, exactly where I should have been." He pulled back to be able to look at her. "Besides, SHIELD has scientists by the dozens. I can easily be replaced." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 12:36 am UTC (link)
	"You mean, SHIELD has thousands of agents, but a scientist that does what you can do, and understands what we need in the field? That's priceless. Now before we have ourselves a real girly moment, let's have dinner tonight. We can scoop up Alice if she's not test driving a new cadet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 12:42 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, sure," he said humoring her. He didn't want to get into an argument with her. Not after just recently having a moment in his life when he thought he would die. "Dinner sounds great," he said. "Anywhere you want. My treat." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 01:22 am UTC (link)
	"MY treat." Sammy stretched up on tip toe and kissed his cheek. She'd almost lost her best friend. That was not something she ever wanted to go through again. "Go back to greeting all your friends here in the lab and I'll catch up to you later." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Tim grabbed her wrist to keep her from going. "Wait a minute. I need to tell you something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 01:40 am UTC (link)
	She gave him a curious smile. "What? You /are/ all right? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I'm fine," he assured her. "Outside of the normal insanity. But while I was being held I thought I was done for once we finished the project and I realized that there are somethings I shouldn't put off any longer."

Tim took a deep breath and prepared to put his heart out there and put everything on the line.

"I'm in love with you and have been since the first day I saw you with those pigtails."

	Sammy's mouth opened. Then closed. Then opened again. And closed. Shocked? Oh, a lot. She took a step back. "I...don't know what to say, so I'm not going to say anything at this moment. I'll be back to get you for dinner. Okay?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 05:58 pm UTC (link)
	It wasn't a bad reaction, but it wasn't a positive one either. He'd take it. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to drop that bomb on you. Yeah, I'll be here when you're ready to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	"Don't ever apologize. We've been friends too long for you to apologize about telling me anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	"I know, but it's a big bomb to drop on you," he explained. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-04-21 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, but don't apologize." Sammy gently tugged herself out of his grip and made her way to the door. It was a testament to her shocked state that she didn't 'disappear' as she usually did. "I'll see you later." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-04-21 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	Tim gave her a smile. "You bet. I'll be here." (Reply to this)(Parent)
