Chapter Text
Tony Stark and Steve Rodgers were currently sitting in the corner of a less known outdoor bakery. Casually Tony reaches up and touches his ear, "Hey Katniss, any sign yet?"
"No, not yet. Are we sure this new director is going to show up?" Tony shrugs and looks at his watch. A shadow appears over the table and he looks up to see a young woman holding a notebook. Smiling he grabs the book and signs the front of it with a pen and hands it to Steve who also signs the book before handing it back to the girl. She looks at them and back at the book. "Its always nice to meet a fan but we have some important business about to happen. Would you like a picture before you leave?" Tony Asks
The girl smiles and nods moving between him and Steve and snapping a selfie. Moving back to the other side of the table, she pulls out the chair and sits down. Steve gives her an odd look. "Not to be rude miss but we do have some important business that is about to occur."
She smiles and holds out her hand "Your right Mr Rodgers, I'm Skye with Shield."
They both stare at her for a second before Steve shakes her hand. "I'm sorry we were expecting someone a little more...." he pauses not sure what to say
"Older, more middle age management looking?" Skye supplies, Tony leans forward "So what your a decoy? Going to give us a location to go to next like a Easter egg hunt? Not a good way to start a relationship."
"No Mr.Stark I'm here to talk about an arrangement between the Avengers and Shield. But if you are more comfortable we can go somewhere else, though I must say I am a little hungry. Will Agent Barton be joining us or should I send coffee up to him? It must be cold on the roof" She asks with a slight smirk on her face.
Tony and Steve exchange looks "Would you mind if we went back the the Tower?" Steve asks "It would be a little more private."
Skye nods and stands up "Of course not, would one of you like to ride with me or will Agent Barton join me. I would rather not drive alone I have not spent enough time in New York to trust myself not to get lost."
Walking out towards the street, Barton catches up to Tony and Steve as the follow Skye. "She's the director of Shield?" He asks "Apparently." Tony mumbles "She certainly asks like she knows what she is doing, would you mind riding with her. A master assassin in the car should keep her from pulling anything." Barton nods and walks a little faster to catch up to her, Tony and Stark get in to the back of Tony's car and head for the Tower.

"Well hello Agent Barton, It's nice to meet you." Skye says smiling and holding out her hand. She watches as he asses her for any threats before shaking her hand. Holding out her notebook she smirks "Since Ive started a collection would you mind signing this too." Barton laughs and signs the notebook
"So where is your car?" Skye points out a very familiar looking car "Where did you get that?" He asks quietly
Skye walks around the front of the car and gently caresses the hood as she passes. Barton can't help but notice how familiar that move was to him. Getting in to the drivers side she looks up at him as he climbs in the passenger side "Lola gets passed down director to director."

At the tower Barton directs her to the under ground garage where Happy is waiting. Getting out Happy holds his hands out for the keys, Skye just looks at him. "Ma'am I need the keys to park the car."
Skye pockets the keys and walks past him "Nobody touches Lola." Barton and Happy exchange a look thinking of the only other person they ever heard say that before following her to the elevator and up to the commons area of Stark Tower.
Stepping out Skye finds herself facing not only Stark and Rodgers but the other Avengers as well. This was not quite the plan and she figures Coulson is going to rip her a new one when she gets back but she doubts that any of the Avengers would harm her. Even if they wanted to she could probably defend herself with her powers till May could pick her up in the Quin Jet or she could make a break for Lola. Besides they need to trust her if this is going to work out. She plans on telling them everything except the part about Coulson being alive or about her powers, that he needs to do himself and he thinks its better to wait until they have established a working relationship. As for her powers only the team knows and she would like to keep it that way at least for a little while. She tried to tell Coulson that it was a terrible idea to leave them thinking he was dead but that man is stubborn. Luckily being Co-Director gave her the benefit of not lying if asked if she was Shield's Director because she is technically. Taking a seat on the opposite side of the table from the Avengers, Skye smiles. "Well now that we are all here, who would like to sign my notebook?"
