CHAPTER 2

AQUARIUM

While sleeping I heard giggling noises. I opened one eye saw all the kids there with wide grins and giggling. I didn't know why they were giggling but I had a feeling it was bad. I sat up and saw if everything was ok.

"why are you guys grinning?" I asked while stretching.

"Look!" Tony pointed at me

I looked at myself with my eyes widen. I saw rats on me. I screamed and tried to take them out. I successfully did by throwing them out the window. 

"How did you 10 get rats in my bed!" I yelled at them

They giggled more.

"I found them in the streets!" Tony said

I looked at him. I shook my head and just got up.

"You're all going to take a shower!" I said

"But we're HUNGRY!" they whined

"well if you don't take a shower you'll end up having rat disease and maybe die!" I pointed out

They had scared faces and right away went to the bathroom and got undressed. It was messy and hard work but finally got it down. 

"Alright my turn to take a shower." I said

"BUT WE'RE HUNGRY!" they whined again

"Tell you what if I take a shower we'll go to iHop for breakfast!" I said clappin my hands together.

"YAY!" they cheered

"Wait Clint can you please put Wreck It-Ralph again?" Maria asked

"Yeah!" the others said together

"Ok ok fine!" I said

I put on Wreck it-ralph and left to take a shower. About an hour I came out and saw the kids singing. I had my camera in my hands

"YEAH IT'S BEEN FUN BUT NOW I GOT TO GO!LIFE IS WAY TO SHORT TO TAKE IT SLOW!" they sang

"Jarvis record this, Please!" I said

"Of course Mr.Barton" the A.I. replied

I smiled at them but kept hidden.  I told Jarvis to stop recording.

"Ok guys let's go! Does everybody have cloths on" I announced

They stopped and just stood frozen.

"What? Did I interrupt something?" I asked smirking

"No, no" Pepper said

I smiled and I lead the kids to the car. We got to iHop and ordered.  Steve was having fun drawing. We started to eat our meal.

"Hey Clint where are we going?" Nick asked

"uh..well. You know it's pretty beautiful outside how about the aquarium." I said

Their faces lit up and they did a yay. We finished and went to the aquarium. 

"Ok guys now I need you to be all in your best behavior! Or else they'll kick us out." I said

They nod and grabbed hands. We went to watch the Penguins. Loki was afraid of every animal.

"Clint?" He said tugging on my grey shirt

I kneel down to his level.

"Is there something wrong bud?" I asked

"I'm scared of these weird looking creatures" Loki said

"Oh..well do you want me to carry you?" I asked

He nods and I carry him. I grabbed Maria's hand who was in the hand line with the others. We went to see the Dolphins. The kids awed while Loki just holded on to me. 

"Come on let's see the dolphins under'' I said

They followed me and we went under and saw the glassed pools. The dolphins were there swimming around. The kids ran to them while I got closer to one.  Loki yelped and just hid his face on my neck.

"Loki don't be afraid, it won't hurt you" I said calmly 

"No! Everybody hates me. That thing will just eat me to death!" He said still face buried in my neck. 

"Ok ok let's go" I said

We went to observe every other animal. After that we headed home all tired. We spent the whole day at the aquarium which the kids really loved. Except some went into trouble like Maria, Natasha and Nick almost diving in the pool of the seals. Luckily I grabbed them before they could jump in and anyone to see. Loki was still in my arms even at the car ride. He fell asleep in my arms. 

"Ok guys head to bed" I said

"Ok" They said tiredly

They went to bed and I put Loki in his bed. I tucked everybody in. When I approached at Natasha she kissed me in the cheeck 

"Goodnight Clint!" She said

"Goodnight Tash" I said

I tucked in Maria and she hugged me.

"Goodnight Clint" she said 

"Night Hill" I said

All the kids were finally to bed, I finally threw myself at my bed (actually my couch).
