When Steve found Seren in the morning, she was working on her new suit. It had become a little custom since they moved into the Tower. Seren either worked on the suit herself or sometimes had Tony around for consultation. Steve began to wonder if she was really working on it for the sake of working or if it was just to distract herself. He supposed it was the same as when he visited the training room.
"Did you even bother to sleep?" Steve asked despite already knowing the answer. They had laid together the previous night for some sleep but a couple hours later he woke up to find Seren gone.
"Course I did," Seren said much too quickly and she knew it. "I mean, for a bitโฆ" She swiped left and right on the holographic plans of her suit. "No, actually, I didn't," she admitted a second later. "I'm sorry, I just couldn't. I was hoping Chloe would call or at least text me." But she hadn't done any of that.
"You just have to give her time," Steve said. He sounded like a broken record. Seren was just too kind to tell him that.
"At least if I get this suit finished, then I'll be able to start scouting areas for the scepter with Stark."
"I'm good Steve," Seren assured him. "All I need right now is a hug...or two...or threeโฆ"
A fair request. Steve took the necessary strides to get to Seren quickly and hugged her. Serenย wasย tired but every problem they had prevented her from realizing it until now.
"You want to take a nap?" Steve offered.
"Maybe," Seren nodded. "I did get something through with my suit this morning. I've added a touch ofย color. I always hated the sheer black suits of S.H.I.E.L.D. I felt like they never suited me like it did for Maria and Natasha."
Steve let out a low laugh. He swayed Seren a bit. "I thought you looked amazing in them."
