When we landed the quinjet, Tony met us at the landing pad. He had left before us to ensure that the movers didn't break or steal anything. Everything was so new and shiny inside the compound. It was also bright. Tony liked a lot of windows to allow for natural light, just like at the tower.

There was the training facilities/labs/business offices in one building, and our living quarters in the other building. The two buildings were connected by a large bridge. The landing pad was attached to the training wing, so we had to walk through that to get to the elevator leading to the bridge. Tony gave us a short tour before leading us to our rooms.

"Maximoff twins, Clint, and Vision will be on the first floor. There are two empty room, you can do whatever you want with those until we need them." Tony explained. "Steve, Natasha, Sam, and Bucky, if we ever find him, will be on the third level. Again, two rooms empty, do whatever. Thor, Bruce, and Rhodey have the fourth floor, whenever they decide to stop by. Skydive and her questionable significant other have the fifth floor, and I, of course, get the top level. Any questions?"

"Why does Sammee and Loki get a floor to themselves?" Pietro pouted.

"Because no one wants to be next to them, even with the soundproofing, next question." Tony dismissed, making me laugh slightly. When no one spoke up, Tony dismissed us all to find our rooms. No one had their own kitchen anymore. There were too many of us for that. The kitchen was in the main living area on the second floor.

Loki and I finally got to our floor once everyone got off on their levels. Tony was still with us, rocking back and forth on his heels as he waited for the elevator to open. When the doors finally did, I gapped at how much space there was. It was an open floor plan, like the second floor living/kitchen/dining area was. The floors were a gray marble tile that helped bounce the light coming from the windows. There was a sitting area with a large television above an electric fireplace. The furniture was black to contrast the light floors. There was a beautiful dark grey rug covering the floor in the sitting room and a gorgeous modern chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The walls were painted a light gray, slightly darker than the floors. There was a raised platform, a foot off the ground, surrounded by glass. Behind the glass was our own little rainforest enclosure. The platform separated the bedroom from the rest of the apartment.

"Holy shit, Tony." I gasped at the gorgeous space. We all got off the elevator and I immediately went to the bedroom. The head of the bed sat against the rainforest enclosure. The bed was also raised on a half circular platform. Black silk sheets laid on perfectly with pillows to match. The bed faced the back wall, which was entirely made of windows. There were two doors to the left of the raised platform. One was to a very large bathroom, the other was to the closet, each with their own 'His' and 'Her' side.

"Wow." I sighed as I sat on the bed and ran my hand over the covers. Loki immediately noticed the far right wall, it was entirely made of bookshelves and was already filled with books.

"One more thing." Tony told us and walked to a section of the bookshelf, closer to the entrance.

"Secret room?" I squeak excitedly and jump off the bed, teleporting to his side.

"Secret room." Tony confirmed and hit a button on the inside lip of one of the bookshelves. A section of the shelf swung inward to reveal the weapons room. My avengers suit sat proudly on a mannequin behind glass. There was a second mannequin next to it that held one of Loki's Asgardian armored suits. Both suits were lit up by a small, dim light in the base of the case.

"Awesome!" I stared in awe at the small room. It wasn't meant for training, only as a storage space for our weapons.

"Like it?" Tony asked me. I was nodding before he finished his question.

"You never disappoint, Tony." I sighed out and turned to hug him. "Thank you."

Tony's arms slowly wrapped me in a hug and he sighed.

"You're welcome, kid." He told me and let me go. "I got to make sure everyone else is settling in well. See you for dinner tonight. We're having tacos!" Tony said as he walked back into the elevator. I was about to turn around when I was suddenly swept off my feet.

"Loki!" I squealed and wrapped my arms around his neck as he carried me to the bedroom. He chuckled before he dropped me on the bed and leaned over me, capturing my lips. I crawled backward on the bed, Loki following my every move so we didn't have to break the kiss.

When we were both fully on the bed, Loki rested comfortably between my legs, continuing to kiss me. It wasn't a completely hunger driven kiss that normally lead to sex, it was a kiss that was content to stay just that, a kiss. His hands were soft over my body, wanting to just feel me against him. After about fifteen minutes of just kissing, Loki pulled back.

"What was that for?" I asked a bit out of breath, my cheeks flushed pink.

"Just because." Loki responded with a soft smile.

"Because?" I repeated.

"Because." Loki confirmed, his smile growing as he leaned back into me. The kiss was soft and it was like time slowed down for only us. Like this kiss was the most important thing in the world.

My body was warm and my skin tingled where Loki touched me. My head was empty as he guided my lips. He gently bit my lip and a breathy moan escaped me. I could feel Loki's smile as he continued to steal my breath. After another ten minutes, Loki kissed my cheek before pulling away.

"Come on, let's go explore a bit." He told me. He got off the bed and held his hand out for me to take. I was still a bit breathless, but accepted his outstretched hand and allowed him to pull me up. When I was standing, Loki pulled me to him and kissed me one more time before leading me to the elevator, his hand holding my own.

We went to the second level to see Natasha, Clint, Vision, and Tony talking in the kitchen.

"Whoa, I totally expected you two to be breaking in your new bed until at least dinner." Tony said very loudly when he saw us walk in. "Unless, you've finally come to your senses and realized you can do better."

"Tony, no." I shook my head at his teasing. "But, I agree, Loki could do so much better." I added with a smirk as Tony rolled his eyes. Loki scoffed from next to me.

"No such thing." Loki told me and kissed the side of my head. Tony gagged at us.

"Ok, stop before you make me throw up." Tony held his hand up to block us from his vision.

"So, whatcha guys doin'?" I asked and looked at Natasha.

"Scoping out the place." Clint answered instead.

"Hey, how long do we have until all hell breaks loose again?" Nat asked and everyone turned to look at me.

"A while." I said with a shrug. "I'm not actually sure if the next big event is happening. I kind of changed things, so... we'll see... I guess." I explained. "Actually, I should probably think of a way to get three key players involved, just in case." I mumbled to myself and thought of how to bring Peter, Scott, and T'challa into the group.

Peter was still in school and he probably hadn't even become Spider-Man, yet. Without Tony's guidance, the young boy could really hurt himself. He'd only be fourteen right now and starting his freshman year at Midtown school of science in the fall. It was summer, so for now he was safe, but once school started again...

"Tony, I might need to keep an eye on someone." I told him as I concocted a plan in my head. "Do you think you can get me into Midtown school of science as a biology teacher?"

"Why that hell would you want to do that?" Tony asked me with a look of slight disgust. "You'd be around children all day."

"Ya, that's kind of the point." I chuckled.

"Wait, our new recruit is a kid?" Tony asked me with wide eyes. "How desperate are we?"

"Tony," I scolded slightly, "you know I can't tell you. All I can say is that it's someone at the school. Doesn't mean it's a student." I explained. Tony huffed and narrowed his eyes at me before giving in and nodding.

"Ya, I can do that, but you can't go as you. You haven't been in the news all that much lately, but people still know your face."

"Nat, do you still have a facial scrambler you used to get into Pierce's office?" I asked her. She crossed her arms and nodded.

"I'm sure I can find it for you." Nat told me.

"How important is this person that you'd willingly become a highschool teacher?" Clint asked. I smirked at him, but Tony interrupted before I could answer.

"Wait, it's your favorite, isn't it?" He asked. "There's no way you'd open yourself up for that kind of torture if it wasn't."

"Torture?" Loki question and looked down at me worriedly.

"Not literally, Loki. Some people refer to highschool as hell because kids can be cruel." I explained to him. Loki nodded and relaxed a bit as we continued talking.

"Ya, but these are highschool kids, boys in particular." Clint told us. "What do you think they're going to say when a hot new teacher comes in?"

"He has a point." Tony said, nodding in agreement. Loki immediately tensed again.

"I'm an ex-HYDRA assassin and trained Avenger, I think I can handle highschool boys." I scoffed. "Plus, most of them are either there on scholarship, or daddy's money. They'll want to make sure they don't get kicked out." I told them with a shrug of my shoulder.

"Alright, I'll see what I can do to get you into the school." Tony sighed. I smiled excitedly at the thought of seeing my favorite superhero in person.
