"I'm still mad at you for laughing at Buckys eyebrow joke," Natasha spoke up to Steve and Elisa laughed, looking at the two as they played a game of chess on the floor. Elisa watched as Natasha took another one of Steve pieces.

"I'm sorry, it was funny!" Steve tried and Natasha rolled her eyes.

"Yeah sure," she said, squaring off his queen, "checkmate."

Steve sighed as they reset the board, Natasha smirking at his loss. Elisa got up, going over to help vision with making the New Years dinner,

"Thank you, I just want to make sure the new year is perfect," Vision spoke, a light chuckle in his tone.

Elisa smiled, tying on a match apron, staring down at the recipe and how far he went. She frowned and shook her head.

"Vis, what are you trying to make here?" She asked and Vision looked at the mess.

"Black eyed peas, they bring good luck to the following year," he said and Elisa looked over him.

"When have we ever had good luck?" She asked.

"Maybe we needed to eat more peas," Vision said and Elisa smiled.

"Well, there's nothing special to it, you boil them," Elisa spoke, getting a large pot, filling it with hot water and set it on the stove, turning it on. She cleaned the mess he made and looked to him.

"Is the ham ready to be baked?" She asked as he picked up the tray with an unseasoned ham. Elisa sighed and set the tray down.

"You want to season it before baking," she spoke, walking over to the spice cabinet, going through to find stuff to go on it.

"We came to America for gold and spices and we only have gold in this damn building," Elsia sighing grabbing what she could make do with and made a glaze to go on the ham, layering it on and stuck it in the oven. Elisa turned on the timer and waited for it to count down, noticing Thor's friend, Brunnehilde walk in.

"What are you preparing for?" Brunnehilde asked, making Elisa turn her head.

"Tomorrow is a new year, so tonight, we eat black eyed peas for wealth and ham because," Elisa frowned as she forgot, turning to Vision for the answer.

"It doesn't show online," he said and Elisa turned to the warrior.

"Let's just say good luck," she smiled and Brunnehilde nodded.

"You eat peas with eyes?" She asked and Elisa cringed.

"No, that's just the name, the black spot on it looks like an eye," Elisa explained and Brunnehilde nodded, looking at the pot.

"Do they go in this boiling water?" She asked and Elisa nodded. Pouring the peas in.

"Don't they teach this stuff in Asgard school?" Elisa asked, remembering overhearing Thor talk about his electives.

"Yeah, but I chose sword training instead," Brunnehilde answered, looking at the oven as Vision turned on the light inside to check the ham.

"Smells good," Brunnehilde smiled and Elisa nodded.

"I hope it taste good," she said, turning to the oven and sighing.

"I'm going to go now," Elisa said and walked out of the kitchen, going upstairs to her room where she tidied up and smiled. She was going to miss being here.

"Knock knock?" She heard Peter and turned around, smiling.

"Hey nerd," she responded and walked over, pulling him into a hug.

"Wow, your room is almost empty," he said and Elisa chuckled.

"Yeah most of it is at my dorm," she explained, walking over to her bed and laying down, watching as he laid down next to her.

"Is Aunt May here?" She asked and he nodded and Elisa smiled.

Aunt May was like a second mother to Elisa, giving her advice and always helping when she was in need. Although nothing beat Pepper who was on Elisa's side no matter the circumstances. Elisa broke her trance as she turned on her side and faced Peter.

Peter smiled and pushed the hair behind her ear. Elisa smiled as his arms pulled her closer. She pushed her head into his chest and wrapped her arms around him, shutting her eyes.

"You smell nice," Elisa spoke up, a small smile on her face.

"Weirdo," Peter joked and she lightly smacked his back.

"Jerk," She chuckled and felt his head leaning onto hers. They looked like a mess of limbs but somehow, they were comfortable.

Elisa slowly dozed off, her head filled with Peter.

∆∆∆

Elisa woke up to Peter shaking her arm.

"Elisa, the party started two hours ago," he said, as Elisa broke away from him, stretching so hard that her legs shook.

Peter laughed as she got up, making Elisa smiled and flip him off.

"Awe come on, babe," he laughed, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulled her close.

"There's a party and dad said I could have a glass of champagne," Elisa spoke hurriedly, Peter releasing her so she could freshen up.

When she walked out of the bathroom, he was standing at her desk, looking at her suits designs. Elisa smiled as he flipped through the pages. She walked over and he looked up at her.

"Ready?" He asked and Elisa nodded, looking to the door that was wide open. Music faintly playing off in the distance. Elisa grabbed Peter hands, lacing their fingers together. The couple walked out to the party where the avengers mingled with a few friends from work, Tony looking up as she made her way down stairs.

"Hey kid, I poured you a glass as promised." Tony said and handed it to her.

"Thank you," she smiled, holding it gently with her open hand. Elisa looked to Peter who was staring at her with a smile on his face.

"New Years is in one minute," Peter smiled and Elisa chuckled looking to the tv screen with the count down.

Elisa felt Peter get closer, leaning into her ear. Her body flushed as she felt him and looked to him.

"Can I be your New Years kiss?" He asked, making Elisa smiled and tilt her head,

"My boyfriend," she intensified the word, making him smile, "doesn't have to ask."

"Whose this boyfriend, I want to fight for that title," he said and made Elisa laugh. She drank the champagne, wrapping her arm around his waist as the count down started.

"Five!"

Peter looked down into her eyes, a smiled on his face.

"Four!"

Elisa pushed a few curls away from his eyes.

"Three!"

Peter chuckled and wrapped his arms around her.

"Two!"

Elisa rested her arms on his shoulder.

"One!"

Peter leaned down, Elisa got on her toes. Their lips collided and sparks flew as fireworks were set off on top of the building. Poppers went off and confetti fluttered around them.

Elisa pulled away to breathe and leaned her forehead on Peters, her heart racing. She never kissed him in front of her family before and she looked around to see no one was paying attention.

Peter chuckled and used two fingers to direct her face towards his, leaning in for another kiss.

Elisa kissed back.
