Chapter 73 A Wedding and a Funeral

Kevin stood alone on the Brooklyn Bridge, staring at the golden locket in his hand, feeling confused.In the short few days back from Asgard, so many things had happened that he felt a little out of breath.

In the blurred night, the majestic buildings and dazzling lights together form the gorgeous skyline of Manhattan.The bay under the bridge is as black as the night sky, reflecting the brilliant lights of the Brooklyn Bridge like a swaying rainbow.

The music of City of Blinding Lights suddenly sounded, and Kevin showed his straight nose bridge from under the visor of his deep baseball cap. He took out his mobile phone, and it was Stark who called.

"Stark, what's the matter?"

"Wade's funeral is tomorrow, and I will pick you up then."

"I'm not going."

"Okay...what? Not going! Kevin, although you are no longer in the magic troupe, after all, he brought you up by himself. How can you do this?"

"Sorry, I have my reasons..." Kevin pressed the hook button after finishing speaking, he didn't want to explain anything to Stark on the phone.Because of his work at S.H.I.E.L.D., Kevin knows some inside information about monitoring, and there is more than one spy agency in the United States.

At ten o'clock the next morning, the apartment doorbell rang.Kevin thought it was Stark, but he didn't expect to open the door and saw that the director was standing at the door with an angry face, grabbing Kevin by the collar and pulling it out without saying a word.

"Director Fury, where are you taking me?" Kevin frowned and asked with some doubts.

"Go to Wade's funeral!" Nick Fury glared at Kevin and replied in an undeniable tone.

"I'm not going!" Kevin broke free from Nick Fury's hand, turned back and ran towards the apartment.Nick Fury caught up, grabbed Kevin's arm tightly with his backhand, and smashed him into the car.

"This is an order!" Nick Fury warned, pointing to Kevin's head, "Don't think I don't know what you did."

"That's what he deserved! Even if you are my officer, you can't force me to attend that person's funeral. My dead parents will never forgive me!" Kevin retorted with red eyes.

"If you're going to explain to your parents, I can give you a ride!" Nick Fury took out a pistol and pressed it against Kevin's forehead.

Kevin wanted to defend himself, but was stopped by Vikara who was sitting in the passenger cab.When Vika touched his hand, Kevin groaned in pain. Vika quickly took off Kevin's cuffs and found that his entire arm was blue.

"Nick, you're too harsh!" Vika couldn't help complaining.

"Sorry, he struggled too much just now," Nick Fury put away his gun, his tone softened.

"Director Fury is for your own good. After Wade dies, the shares left by your father and controlled by him will return to you, and you are the beneficiary. If you don't go to the funeral, it will cause the police Doubt," Vika turned his head and explained patiently.

Kevin didn't continue to resist, but just looked away from the car window.The sparse bushes receded rapidly, and the dark sky was exposed between the trees.

Nick Fury did not waste time, led Kevin to the funeral as quickly as possible, and made a simple apology to the pastor for being late.He patted Kevin on the shoulder and left without saying anything more.

Kevin's eyes were a little red because he was aggrieved, but the people present naturally felt that he was so sad.

Stark in the back row noticed something wrong with Kevin's mood, so he walked up to Kevin and tried to comfort him.But from the beginning to the end of the funeral, Kevin didn't say a word.

Stark was a little disappointed. He didn't need to attend the funeral in person for a small partner. He did all this for Kevin, but Kevin didn't seem to appreciate it.He looked at Kevin's side face, the ugly scar at the corner of his eye had completely disappeared, but he suddenly felt a sense of strangeness.

As soon as the funeral was over, Kevin left the cemetery straight away, and Stark chased after him, "What's wrong with you?"

"Did you tell Nick Fury?" Kevin asked coldly.

"I just thought he gave you some mission, so you didn't come." Stark forced a smile. In this atmosphere, even he himself felt awkward, "I think whether you and Wade If there is any holiday, you should come to the funeral, otherwise it will look too cold..."

"Wade killed my parents 20 years ago, and later created an accident to kill me. Why should I attend his funeral?" Kevin asked.Although he knew that this matter had nothing to do with Stark at all, he just couldn't help but lose his temper with Stark.

Perhaps because the person in front of him is his best friend, people always lose their temper with the closest person, because they will tolerate themselves unconditionally.

"I'm sorry, I don't know this..." Stark was stunned, he didn't expect Kevin's fate to be surprisingly similar to his own.He also has such a "good uncle" Oba Destein who wants to put himself to death; he still remembers that his parents both died in a car accident when he was 21 years old. He knew it was not an accident, but he couldn't find it. to the real culprit.

"Stark, I don't blame you, I'm just in a bad mood," Kevin's tone softened, but he still didn't look back.

"I'll take you back, you seem to be in Nick Fury's car," Stark suggested with a smile.

"No, I want to be alone for a while," Kevin put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked over the fallen weeds, and walked towards the gate of the cemetery.

Stark sighed and returned to his convertible car. He didn't realize that he forgot to start the engine until Irene came to remind him.

All of this was seen by Irene. At the beginning, she suggested that Kevin leave Stark. Now that the two best friends had such a trouble, she only felt very sorry and decided to do something.

Erin and Jason's wedding goes ahead as planned.Irene was wearing a white wedding dress, just like a noble and beautiful Persian cat.Jason, like Dupin, faithfully guarded the red carpet, waiting eagerly for Irene's old father who came from France to deliver the bride's hand to him.

Kevin and Stark were specially arranged by Irene to sit next to each other, sitting with a group of deaf elderly people.However, Irene's painstaking efforts obviously did not work, and neither of them spoke to each other until the wedding was over.

Kevin kept biting his upper lip, if he hadn't lost his temper with Stark indiscriminately, it wouldn't have caused such a situation.He couldn't get down the steps, and glanced at Stark from time to time, but Stark just looked at the newlyweds who were intoxicated in happiness with a serious face.

What Kevin didn't notice was that Stark was also secretly looking at him, but the two of them were very lucky and happened not to meet their eyes.

Until the end of the wedding, when Irene threw out the bouquet, Kevin and Stark were both absent-minded. When they saw something flying towards them, they subconsciously hid for a while and collided with each other. The bouquet flew over their heads and flew to a young girl behind them. hands.At this time, both of them couldn't help laughing.

"It really surprised me that they didn't ask you to be the best man," Stark said first to break the embarrassing situation, "I thought you dyed your hair blond just to match Jason's hair."

"Shouldn't I express my regret first? Neither of us received the bouquet." Kevin smiled and changed the subject. His relationship with Irene and Jason is more complicated than it seems.

"I have no regrets, you have to be careful," Star smiled, "I'll take you back after the wedding."

"Okay," Kevin nodded.

Stark drove the car very slowly all the way.The sky is the most beautiful when the lanterns first come on, the moonlight has not yet been covered by the bright lights, and the lavender clouds seem to be painted by Monet with a paintbrush.

The small alleys of the apartment were full of cars, and Stark parked the convertible directly on the outer side of the road, so he didn't care about the ticket or anything.The two got out of the car and walked towards Kevin's apartment.

"Kevin, remember, you promised not to leave me!" Stark suddenly grabbed Kevin's hand, Kevin retracted instinctively, and gave Stark an apologetic look.

"I didn't leave you, we have always been best friends", Kevin guessed what Stark meant, and he couldn't believe it.

"It's nothing, in fact, I gave up my heart a year ago." Stark was a little sad, "You still chose him, after you saw that text message."

"SMS?" Kevin asked suspiciously.

"Yes, I added my dear at the end of the text message, you don't think that's a joke, do you?" Stark frowned.

"I..." Kevin was stunned. He finally knew why Clint apologized specifically for this incident, but he didn't intend to tell the truth. A text message from a visit to the Tucker Industry Expo? Because the content is the same as the one sent to me by Pepper, so I didn't notice it..."

"It's nothing, I just want you to be happy," Stark continued. "If I had taken the initiative at that time, maybe the result would not have been like this. When you came back from Budapest, I wanted to express my heart to you, but on that day At night, I found signs of palladium poisoning in the chest reaction area, I knew I wouldn't live long, so while you were asleep, I threw the prepared engagement ring into the sea..."

"Why didn't you tell me about your palladium poisoning!" Kevin frowned in surprise.

"Didn't you tell me about your curse?" Stark showed an angry look on his face, "I didn't know until after Nick Fury told me, what do you think of me? Best friend , or don’t trust me at all.”

"I'm sorry, I just don't want you to worry," Kevin lowered his eyes.

"Sorry, I'm a little emotional, I know you're trying to stop me from blaming myself, you're all cursed because I brought you to Afghanistan", Stark closed his eyes, "I didn't tell you the same reason Yes, I don't want you to worry about me, so I deliberately alienated you during that time."

"Stark..." Kevin was a little speechless.

"Maybe it was fate, you fell in love with that kid during that time," Stark said, "It was your curse first, and then my palladium poisoning. Fate is destined to make us stagger!"

Kevin fell into silence. If time went back to before he went to Budapest, maybe the result would really be different.At that time, he didn't know Clint, but he already had a deep relationship with Stark, but he didn't know if this relationship was love.

"When you ran to the hospital to rescue him regardless of your injuries, and cried to death, my heart was broken!" Stark's eye circles were a little red, "Tell me, have you ever liked me? "

Seeing that Kevin was silent, Stark said with a smile, "Forget it, it's over anyway, and there's no point in asking these questions now."

"Yes", Kevin looked into Stark's eyes and said the answer honestly.

"Thank you," Stark suddenly gave Kevin a hug.He hugged him tighter and tighter, and Kevin felt like he was suffocating.

"Don't move around, this is the last time I hug you like this!" Stark's amber eyes flickered.

Even across the reaction market, Kevin still felt Stark's heartbeat.He recalled the time when Stark had stayed to die with him, their heartbeats mingling just like that.Tears welled up gradually, moistening Kevin's eyes.

"It's time to say goodbye." Stark gently let go of his hand. "There is nothing to worry about if the bouquet is not received. We will all have our own happiness in the future. Remember, you will always be my best friend."

"Stark, you are my best friend too," Kevin blinked vigorously, holding back his tears.

"Call me Tony from now on, since I'm a friend, please call me more kindly." The corners of Stark's mouth curled up, and a characteristic smile hung on his face.

"Goodbye, Tony..."
