You had married Tony a few years ago now and you were still desperately in love. However, you didn’t see him anywhere near to as much as you wanted to. He lived in New York with his team in the Avengers Tower… which, in its self, was dangerous. He didn’t want you anywhere near the chaos, or his hero work in general, so you stayed in his Malibu mansion surrounded by security. It was beautiful but empty without him near.

So, when you sauntered into the Avengers Tower main living room, it really wasn’t a surprise to see the shock on all of their faces. Most of them didn’t even know who you were but Bruce did and he was already coming up with excuses to tell Tony when he eventually appeared from his lab, knowing he wouldn’t completely approve of you coming to the centre of the danger (no matter how happy he’d be to see you).

“Sorry, are you lost?” Steve asked as he stood up, ever the gentleman. He was one of the majority who didn’t know who you were, especially not to Tony. Natasha, on the other hand, was able to recognise you from her earlier days undercover in Stark Industries but she’d never known how deep your relationship with Tony actually went.
