As soon as we walked off the quinnjet, the first thing I saw was Nat waiting for us with her arms crossed. I smiled at the redhead assassin that I considered a close friend. As I looked up at Steve and the confused look on his face, I realised that he had never Nat. It was a strange feeling knowing Steve had never met the group of people that had become like family to me over the past five years. But I intended to fix that as soon as I could.

"Agent Romanoff, Captain Rogers," Phil said, introducing the pair.

"Ma'am," Steve said as he smiled at her.

"Nat how are you," I asked the assassin as I hugged her, knowing how close she was to Clint.

"Been better," she told me, letting her mask of indifference drop for a split second before looking over at Phil. "They need you on the bridge. They're starting the face-trace."

"See you there," Phil said to us before heading to the bridge.

"It was quite the buzz around here, finding you in the ice," Nat smirked. "I thought Coulson was gonna swoon. Did he ask you to sign his Captain America trading cards yet?"

"I had forgotten about those. I'm surprised he hasn't brought them up yet," I laughed as Steve looked confused about everything...again.

"Trading cards?"

"They're vintage, he's very proud," Nat told him before turning to me. "Now, where is my favourite little girl? I have missed seeing her?"

"Elsa is with the Professor and her new best friend, Bobby," I told her.

"As much as I'm hurt that I'm not her best friend anymore, I'm glad she's somewhere safe," she said to me as we watched Dr Banner walking around the ship, trying to stay out of everyone's way.

"Dr Banner," Steve called out, getting the man's attention.

"Oh, yeah. Hi. They told me you'd be coming," the doctor said, looking very uncomfortable as he wringed his hands nervously.

"Word is you can find the cube."

"Is that the only work on me?"

"Only word I care about," Steve told the doctor, making me proud of my husband about the way he never judged people and always saw the best in them.

"Have we met before? You look very familiar. I'm Bruce Banner," the doctor said when he noticed me standing off to the side, walking over to shake my hand.

"That's because we have met before. I'm Kimberly Rogers, but when we met, I was a lot younger and you would have known me as Kimberly Odinson back then."

"Your Kellie's daughter! I knew I had seen you before," Bruce said excitedly, happy that there was at least one person he knew aboard the helicarrier. "How long has it been?"

"Around 15 years if I remember correctly."

"Has it really been that long? That's crazy! I heard about your father and I am so sorry for your loss. I wanted to send flowers but I was kinda...in India. How's your mother doing?"
