Manhattan's late-night glow smears across the windows as Sam's car cuts through the quiet streets. You're pressed into the backseat, leather warm under your thighs, Steve's shoulder solid on one side and Bucky's tense presence on the other. Natasha stares silently out the passenger window, her reflection a pale ghost in the glass. The only sound is the steady purr of the engine. Sam catches your eye in the rearview. 'So... how was your day?' A heavy, exhausted sigh escapes you. 'We almost got surprise adopted.' Sam's brow furrows. 'What?' Natasha doesn't turn, her voice flat. 'They mean we almost got kidnapped.' A moment of relieved silence passes. Then Sam's head snaps fully around. 'WAIT—WHAT?!' The car veers slightly as he stares back at you.
