(Y/n)'s P.O.V.
How could I be such an idiot! Of course it just had to be my luck. 1) I'm a complete idiot, how could I not of realized that Tom and Tom might've been the same person I mean of course Robert and the names. 2) this has to be Nikki's son, which means I could be compromised. Why, why me? Just my dumb lu-
"Excuse me, are you alright?" He asked. "(v/y/n)? " "Oh, yes. Sorry. I just uh, got distracted." I stuttered. I shook my head, don't give anything away you dummy. He might not recognize you. But this must mean Sam is here. "Yes um... Downey town isn't another city, it's where Mr. Downey eats lunch by his trailers. He wants to invite you to lunch." His cheeks went ablaze, "oh, right. Umm, yes I'd love to." I gave him an awkward smile. "Okay thank you, I'll let him know." As I turned he called me. "yes?" "I'm sorry if this is weird but... have we met before, you sound very familiar." "Nope, we've never met." I quickly sped away.
"I'm such an idiot! Why! Why!" I whisper shouted my frustration. This must mean that everyone else in those group chats are the actors working in this movie. Also, the people I'm responsible for protecting. I pulled out my phone, quickly calling Nathaniel. "Hi?" "I'm f***ed." "What do you mean?" "The people here, they're the people, the strangers I've been texting. What if I'm already compromised, I-" Words were just spilling from my mouth like vomit. "(Y/n) calm down. You have a different name, occupation, and they've never seen your face. And you've only called with a few of the so your voice might be familiar to a few." "I know bu-" "They won't. You've got your cover. You're not (y/n) to them, you're (v/y/n)." I felt sick to my stomach, quickly sitting down on the asphalt."Actually... I know one of them personally." "What do you mean?" Nate's confusion was apparent. I gulped. "Well, remember the family I was staying at when I was in England, this is her oldest son. I mean we never met but I know his brothers, mother, and dad. If any of them see me I'm screwed. And one of them is with him."Nathaniel sighed. "Okay, here's what you're going to do. Avoid him at all costs, at least when the family is around. Avoid texting them at all as (y/n), you can't let them know much about you. Keep your cover. Zemo is none the wiser and you can do this." " But what if they find out? What i-" "No. You've trained for this. And if he somehow does recognize you, then say you're in the witness protection program. We'll have a story for you. You can do this, don't forget your training. You're not our therapist but (v/y/n) Brennan, a college student who took this gig from her close friend as a favor and to take a break from school. You're majoring-" "in computer science because I read The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch when I was a kid and he inspired me to become like him."
" There you go. You can do this (Y/l/n). Don't forget that. Now we don't want you calling us unless it's on the burners anymore, we're afraid big sister might start listening in soon some point. Not yet but she's getting closer." "Okay, thanks Nate, I- I owe you one." "Anytime. We'll update you on anything that's going on here. Stay safe and keep an eye on everyone there." The line went dead. I sighed. This is going to be so much harder then I though it would be. I sat there taking a few deep breaths calming down.
My other phone buzzed. Robert texted me to go invite a few others as well. I dusted myself off making my way towards their trailers. It was much easier than Tom's seeing as they've never seen me nor heard me. I was still bubbling with nerves as I went back to Robert's city of trailers. "Mr. Downey, everyone will be here in thirty minutes. I'm going to go start on answering some of the emails." "You're so formal, you can call me Robert. Say it with me Robert" I laughed slightly and repeated it back. I went and grabbed my laptop from one of his trailers and returned back to where he was and began on my work.
Tom's P.O.V.
What a weird conversation. I closed the door and made my way back into the trailer. "Who was that?" Haz asked. "It was Robert's new assistant, he invited me to lunch." " I forgot that Sarah was going on vacation for a while." "Yeah, his new assistant seems awfully familiar. I feel like we've met before." Sitting down and grabbing my phone I decided to text (Y/n). Oddly enough, she didn't answer. She's usually quick to reply. Shrugging I sat my phone down and began running through lines with Haz. I wonder where I've seen her before... She didn't exactly look familiar but her voice...
"Mate you alright?" Haz questioned. "Yeah, no I'm just trying to figure out where I've seen that girl before. It's not like she looks familiar but her voice..." "Well you know, there are plenty of people in the world who sound alike. Maybe she's just really a stranger. What was her name, speaking of which?" "(V/y/n) Brendon I think?" I recalled. "Well, I suppose we'll see. I'm sure I'll be bumping into her soon seeing as you and Downey have a majority of your scenes together." I nodded and we began going through lines. It was still tugging at my brain. Who is that girl.
