The year was 2003 and Y/N was currently in his safehouse that he had in Rio De Janeiro in Brazil because he had gotten a call from Nick saying that he had a guy who needed to put in safekeeping for a while because he was currently a fugitive of the US military. It was eight o'clock at night and he was still waiting for him to arrive.

Y/N was getting a mobile phone call from Nick which was untraceable and was the only way Nick and Y/N could communicate with each other. Y/N answered with an upbeat tone "Nicholas Joseph Fury what the fuck is up my friend"

Y/N heard an audible sigh on the other side of the phone "I got intel that my guy is nearby your place." Y/N had given Nick a list of his various safe houses around the world that only he and Nick knew about.

"Right well me and Venom will roll out the red carpet for him" Y/N answered as he tidied up the place as much as he could "Have you told this guy anything about me?" Y/N asked

"Just that you can be trusted, I figured you can fill him in with as much or little as you want" Nick replied as Y/N's then heard a knock at the door.

"He's here, so I'll talk to you later" Y/N was about to hang up but Nick managed to say something before he did

"Y/N, seriously don't piss him off or trust me you will regret it" Nick cryptically warned before Y/N heard the door knock again.

"You already told me what he's capable of, however I can't say I'm not intrigued. Anyway I'll talk to you later Nick" Y/N hung up before strolling over to the door, opening it to reveal a mid height man with a duffel bag on his arm.

"Dr Banner?" Y/N asked confidentially to the man.

"That's me, you're Y/N L/N I hope." Doctor Banner nervously asked as he held his hands in front of his waist and looked down at the floor after he asked.

"The living breathing legend himself, now get your ass inside" Y/N whispered gesturing for him to come in.

Bruce did as Y/N asked coming in to see the fairly well kept living area as Y/N shut the door behind him.

"He's nervous" Venom said to Y/N

"Yeah no shit Sherlock fucking Stevie Wonder could see that" Y/N quietly fired back before heading into the living room to see Bruce still shyly standing around.

"Take a seat, Bruce" Y/N held out a hand "I can call you Bruce right?" He asked as made his way to the kitchen.

"Yeah that's fine." Bruce replied as took a seat on one of Y/N's oldish sofas getting himself comfy as he placed his duffel bag to the side of him.

"Drink?" Y/N offered as he pulled his small fridge open

"I don't normally drink but I could really use a beer about now please" Bruce politely requested to Y/N who produced two cold bottles out of the fridge taking off the lids with his bare hands "Impressive" Bruce said with a small smile, the first time he had shown an emotion other than nervousness since he arrived.

"You should see what else I can do" Y/N teased the doctor as he handed him the beer thanking Y/N who slouched on the chair he had opposite Bruce.

"Cheers" Y/N said as he and Bruce clinked their bottles together before drinking some of their beers "So what do you do then Bruce?" Y/N asked Bruce as the former threw his legs over the arm of his chair wanting to test the waters with Bruce given that Nick had given him a rundown about Dr Banner.

Bruce clearly skeptical about revealing too much to Y/N answers nervously "A bit of this and a bit of that"

Y/N chuckles at Bruce's answer "I mean that that tells me virtually nothing..... I somehow doubt that it's a bit of spearfishing and bit of birdwatching" Y/N retorts which Bruce was inclined to agree with Y/N on.

"I definitely take him for a birdwatcher" Venom quips as Y/N takes another sip of his beer to hide his laughter.

Bruce soon realised that Y/N knew more than he was letting on but appreciated that he didn't straight out him about 'the other guy' "Alright fair enough, I was a scientist working on gamma radiation."

"You're a science wizz then,........ I was never that good at school that's why I joined the army that and to get away from my piece of shit father." Y/N explained to a much more comfortable looking Bruce.

The scientist took another drink and asked "How long were you in the army for?"

"Nine years before I was arrested" Y/N answered

This piqued Bruce's interest "What did you get arrested for?" A slight worried look on his face

Y/N finished his beer before getting back into a sitting position to put the empty bottle on the table "Murder" he said casually as Bruce went wide eyed before Y/N added "Fucker was the leader that captured and killed our men. We went in to capture, his men killed my whole team including a nineteen year old kid so I killed him out of anger"

"I'm sorry" Bruce said sympathetically as he looked down at the floor however to him many things in Y/N's story didn't add up "But you don't look that old so this must not have happened long ago."

Y/N laughed at the irony of Bruce's comment "I'm a lot older than I look" as he leaned back in his chair to get comfortable again.

"How old? I'm guessing late twenties" Bruce asked as he finished his beer.

"Looks wise yes but I was born in and you may want to prepare yourself................1888."

"You old fuck" Venom joked with Y/N who mentally cursed at the symbiote.

Bruce's mouth was agape from Y/N's revelation "What? H-How? Y-You're 115 years old" Y/N was shocked that Bruce immediately believed him because he was sure that not everyone would believe that.

"Damn quick maths........... you heard of Steve Rogers?" Y/N asked

"You mean Captain America, the super soldier from World War Two, sure who hasn't?" Bruce said as if it was obvious which an all fairness it absolutely was, there was no one who hadn't heard of hadn't heard the name Captain America.

"Army tried to make super soldiers in World War One. I was forced to go under and the only one who survived, it left me with enhanced everything basically, the biggest thing was a super duper healing factor which stops me from aging and from dying............Therefore I became Deadpool."

"VENOMPOOL!" Venom snarled at Y/N

"I don't want to overwhelm him besides I thought you wanted to stay a secret" Y/N mentally argued back

"Fine" Venom clearly annoyed stated.

Bruce's shock only grew from this information "The Mercenary!? I thought you were just a myth"

"More like a legend" Y/N held his arms out wide arrogantly complimented with an equally cocky grin.

Bruce was well and truly fascinated by Y/N who had been very open with him that Bruce couldn't help but feel he should also be honest with him "I suppose you already know about me"

"Only what Nick told me......... I should warn you Green Day expect some teasing from me because I have a reputation for being an annoying prick hence I earned the nickname The Merc with the Mouth"

Bruce chuckled at Y/N's nickname for him despite having obviously contrasting personalities, he liked Y/N. Bruce's face dropped as he began to ashamedly admit to Y/N "It's feels like a curse to me, I mean I-I-I killed people. I just want 'him' gone and go back to how things were"

Y/N nodded in understanding, he empathised with Bruce but Y/N rather enjoyed his abilities even more after he bonded with Venom "Sounds like a shit show but coming from a mercenary whose also an assassin and you probably don't wanna hear it but......... it gets easier" Y/N offered his advice to Bruce who despite not liking it knew that Y/N was right.

"Thaddeus Ross or General Ross wants to weaponise it and I don't want that to happen" Bruce explained further to Y/N who yet again empathised as he went through a similar situation with General Becker all those years ago.

"Well if I ever meet this General Ross, I'll make sure to punch his lights out for you" Y/N patted Bruce's shoulder

Bruce chuckled and said a simple "Thanks" before adding "Luckily it only happens when my heart rate goes past 200 BPM" He then flaunted his heart rate monitor on his wrist to Y/N who had an idea given what Bruce had just told him.

"Just a second, I have something that may be able to help with that" Y/N went into the bedroom and started rummaging around in there before yelling "There you are you beauty!" Y/N emerged from the bedroom with a massive bag of weed.

"God I love this stuff" Venom licked his lips at the sight of the bag.

"Me too" Y/N replied out loud

Bruce immediately started shaking his hands in refusal "No, no, no I don't really smoke"

Y/N smiled devilishly "Come on Bruce, it'll definitely help with keeping your heart rate down."

"Where did you even get that from?" Bruce gestured to the bag, he was clearly repulsed by the sight of the weed.

"I killed a bunch of drug dealers about a week after I got here, it's a new batch of weed called 'Mind Rape' it's surprisingly mellow" Y/N answered as he started rolling a couple of joints.

"It doesn't sound very mellow especially given the name" Bruce shot back not with anger but more to state a point.

Y/N had finished rolling the joints "Alright fair buuuuuuut I am sort of letting you stay in my house Soooooo" he offered Bruce the joint who looked at it with concern.

Bruce gave him an unimpressed look "Are you guilt tripping me into this?"

"Yes" Y/N quickly stated shaking the joint in front of Bruce.

"Fine but only because you're letting me stay here and this will be the only time" Bruce warned as he took the joint from Y/N

Y/N cheered in victory "Now that's the Spirit Green Bean." As he pulled a lighter out of his pocket and lit Bruce's joint who took a small inhale before he started coughing causing Y/N and Venom to laugh.

"Who'd have thought I'd be smoking green with Mr Green" Y/N said as he lit up his joint and took a big inhale, making a few 'O' shapes as he exhaled.

"Well don't get used to it" Bruce retorted as he took another hit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
It was an hour later and there was thin cloud of smoke that was hovering around the living area. Bruce was completely high letting the sofa consume him as he was staring up at the ceiling as if it was talking to him whilst Y/N and Venom on the other hand were completely unaffected.

"How-how are you so cool about this?" Bruce enquired speaking as if he was completely out of it still examining the ceiling.

Y/N chuckled at Bruce's current state "My super duper healing factor means I don't feel the effects of drugs or alcohol. I don't ever get sick so pretty good"

Bruce leaned up from sofa and started poking Y/N teasingly "I bet you wish you could be me right now, I'm having the time of my life. WOO!"

Y/N loudly laughed at the scientist who leaned back into the sofa, it was a nice change up from the nervous and scared man who was at his door not two hours ago "I smoke this shit for the taste mostly, someone has to smoke it, why not be me?"

"Amen to that" Bruce raised his right arm to preach Y/N's previous statement. Bruce then started doing some weird seventies style dancing which only made Y/N laugh even harder.

"Please........stop........you're killing me" Y/N roared with laughter genuinely struggling to breathe.

Bruce then hushed Y/N "Don't worry you'll recover, you're Deadpool but shhhhh it's a secret." Bruce whispered

"He's completely arseholed" Venom stated in between laughs.

"Yeah no shit" Y/N replied out loud figuring he could talk to the symbiote out loud figuring Bruce was too high to even notice.

"We should probably get him to bed" Venom suggested to his host.

"Well before we do" Y/N pulled out his flip phone and took a picture of the inebriated Bruce "THAT is going on his Christmas card"

"I'm sure he'll appreciate it" Venom stated sarcastically

"Fuck yeah he should I've just given him a lot of expensive weed for less than a packet of biscuits" Y/N stated as he picked up the stoned Bruce and carried him to the bedroom.

As Y/N carried Bruce to his room, the doctor stated rambling "Did I tell you about my girl Betty, her real names Elizabeth but she likes Betty it suits her and she's suuuuuper pretty and smart and kind and funny-"

"I think I've got the picture Green Day" Y/N chuckled which caused a panicked reaction from Bruce as he started searching rapidly around his body.

Y/N set him down in his bed as Bruce pulled something out of his pocket "No I've got the picture" he flaunted the picture in front of Y/N's face.

"Damn, you and her!?" Y/N asked with surprise as he examined the picture before muttering to himself "Might have to pump one out to this.........could I do that......yeahhhhh"

"What the fuck is wrong with you!?" Venom shot at Y/N

Bruce then started to weep softly "I love her you know and I went and hurt her" he shamefully admitted.

Y/N then cursed to himself quietly saying to himself "Fuck I can't whack one out to her now without feeling guilty" as Y/N gave Bruce the picture of his beloved girlfriend back.

Y/N went to leave the room and let Bruce sleep but felt the scientist grab his wrist forcing him to turn around "Thank you Y/N for letting me stay here"

Y/N genuinely smiled at Bruce who had stopped weeping at this point "No problem Bruce, now get some sleep whilst I go meditate .......... Or masturbate......... Or both probably both."

"Ew" Bruce let out causing Y/N to laugh once again before he walked over to exit his bedroom.

"Good night you angry gremlin" Y/N said

"Good night Y/N" Bruce said before getting comfy in his new home whilst Y/N shut the light off and shut the door allowing Bruce to sleep off his high.
