Spencer POV


I didn't sleep after James left last night, I just laid there, staring at the ceiling, I couldn't sleep why did this man insist on helping me, insist on keeping me safe? I thought

I sighed finally getting out of bed, I walked into the bathroom taking a shower and brushing my teeth and hair,

After getting dressed I stepped out of the bathroom to see Tony standing there arms crossed and with a grimace,

"Tony?" I said

"Follow me," He said

I hesitantly followed him, my heels clicking on the floor as we walked, we walked past some of the avenger and some shield agents,

Tony opened his office door,

Holding out a arm motioning for me to go in first,

So I did, he slammed the door which caused me to jump too many memories,

"Sit," Tony said sternly,

I sat across from his desk, he sits across from me,

"So it's come to my attention that you tried leaving in the late hours last night," Tony said

"How did... James," I said

"No Friday I informed Friday to let me know when you are planning an escape," Tony said

"Oh," I mumbled,

"Yeah Oh," Tony said

I paused and looked down at my hands that looked more interesting,

"What I want to know is why?" Tony said

"Because I feel terrible for dragging into my mess, I needed to leave," I whispered,

"Spence how many times must I tell you, you did not drag-" He began,

"But I did! I brought all of this on you Tony," I said

"I shouldn't have come here," I felt tears welling up,

"I'm so sorry," I said standing up and running out of the room,

"Spence!" I hear Tony,

But I ran out of the tower, I needed to think about this, I walked along the side walk, towards what used to be home,

I still had the tears welling in my eyes, I don't know what the hell I'm doing anymore,

I feel so broken, so lost, I enter the apartment, looking around at everything, the scene still a mess from the night I left,

The night I decided to go to Tony for advice, going back to that night


Memory


I walked through the door after working a triple shift when it started, I was exhausted

"I need money," He said holding out his hand,

"I don't have any," I said

He rushed at me holding me to the wall by my throat,

"Don't lie to me!" He yelled his face inches from mine,

"I'm not I don't get paid until Friday and I need to pay rent," I gasped,

Next thing I know he back hands me, causing me to fall to the ground and then he started kicking no matter how much I tried to get him to stop,


End Memory


I touched my cheek, even though the bruise wasn't there anymore, the pain never stops,

I slid down the wall,

Why did I go to Tony,

I felt tears falling down my cheeks as I stared at the wall, was it because I was tired of being beat around?

Or was it because I was truly scared?

I pulled my knees to my chest folding my arms on top of my knees as I cried,

I don't know what I'm doing anymore, I thought

I hear the thump of footsteps, I don't dare look up,

I felt someone sit next to me,

"Doll," I hear

I look up to see James,

"Please don't cry," He said using his metal hand to wipe away a tear,

"What are you doing here?" I asked,

"Tony told me what happened, I figured you would come back here," He said

"How?' I asked as I wiped some of my tears on my other cheek off,

"Because it's what I would do," He said

I just nodded,

I felt James put his hand on my cheek,

"Doll come back with me please, let me help you," He said

"How?" I whispered,

"I can show you not everyone is like him, We all want to Help you including me," He said

"What if you can't," I said

"Let me prove it," He said

"How?' I asked

With his hand still cupping my cheek, his face inched closer to mine until our lips met the heat from the kiss,

James was kissing me,

And I liked it, like our lips were meant for each other, my eyes flutter shut upon feeling his lips on mine,

The seer Passion behind the kiss was something I've never experienced before, and it felt right,

He pulled away, his forehead against mine,

"I promise I will show you how it's supposed to be," He said his icy blue eyes looking into mine,'

He stood up offering me his hand, and I took it, with that we both walked out of the apartment back to the tower,

Hoping that this won't be what makes me shatter,
