"I said I had it." I tell him as I grabbed my bag and walk out the room.
"I just thought you might-"
"No, you just thought I couldn't do it myself. You think I'm weak." I cut him off  and he grabs my arm turning me around to face him.
"I don't think you're weak. I just want to protect you."
"I know you feel bad about the whole me getting caught... but you have to let it go, I chose to do this job. And I can take care of myself." I pushed his arm off of me and walk to the elevator and push to button. When I get in I wait for Steve and he stood there awkwardly. We get to the jet and we head back over to the tower. I got my bag and started walking to my car so I could go home. Everyone else was staying and going to brief about the mission. When I got to my car I put my bag in the trunk and unlock my side.
"Hey! Can you drop me off at home?" I look up at Steve and I pause to think about it.
"Sure." I say and he smiles as he walks over to the passenger side. We both got in and my radio was playing pretty loudly so I turned it down a bit and continued to drive. When we arrived at a red light I looked over to Steve and he was looking down at his lap. I grabbed a coin from one of my little compartments and I hold out a penny. "A penny for your thoughts?" I ask and he takes the penny from my hand.
"I'm scared that I might loose you again every time we aren't together I get anxious. And every time we are together I don't want to split up because when they got you I wasn't there. I wasn't there when I was supposed to be there because I was too busy trying to take out my guys. So I'm sorry if I upset you, but I don't think you're weak. I just think that I might not be strong enough or fast enough to be there before something bad happens. And I can't loose you again." He tells me and then goes quiet letting out a heavy sigh. I pulled into his driveway and I put my car in park.
"You know it's not your fault."
"I know, but I'll always feel like it is."
"It was set up."
"What?"
"That's why I tried getting there before you. Because I overheard a conversation I wasn't supposed to, and I heard them say that they would be leading us into a trap. My goal wasn't to beat up everyone. My goal was to get to that room before you, because I don't know what I would have done if you had been taken."
"What did they do?"
"They tortured a lot, and experimented but nothing I couldn't handle."
"Do you want to come in?" He asked as he rested his arms on the roof and the door of the car.
"I have to go make some dinner, cause I haven't eaten since breakfast."
"I can cook up your favorite."
"Well I have to go home and shower too."
"You can shower here, and you can borrow some of my clothes. I know you keep some spare clothes in your car too."
"Okay, I'll give." I tell him as I grabbed my purse and the bag of spare undergarments from my trunk, I get out my car locking it. He opens the door to his house and let's me in. He starts to take off my jacket. And I felt myself get hot when he trailed his fingers down my arm. He hung up my jacket and takes off his own hanging it up as well. He walks me up to his room, where he hands me a shirt, a clean towel, and some sweatpants.  I take them and he shows me how the shower works.
"I'll be downstairs cooking, so if you need anything just give a shout." He says walking out the bathroom. I start to undress and get in the shower after I close the door and lock it. I get in the shower and do my thing, I remember when he was first getting his house and asked me to help him. I bought him all the proper things to shower so that he wouldn't be one of those 3 in 1 shampoo boys. When I was done showering I changed into my the clothes. I dried my hair using a hairdryer, and I went downstairs. "Do you want me to give you a smaller shirt?" He asked as he looked up from breading the chicken.
"No, it's fine. I can just tuck it in to my bra." I tell him and I tuck the back of the shirt into my bra, so I wasn't engulfed by the shirt.  I sit at the island and he pours me a glass of wine.
"So how is the boy friend."
"We broke up a month ago."
"Seriously?"
"I told you this already didn't I?"
"No, not that I recall."
"Yeah we broke up. He said that he just wasn't feeling it, and that he found someone else that he thinks will be around more than me. But I wasn't going to fight for it, because at the end of the day it would have fallen apart and I'd rather it be sooner than later."
"I mean you're smart and I will applaud you for that."
"Why thank you Rogers. So what about you?"
"What about me?"
"Do you have a lady in your life? Or someone you have your eye on?"
"Well she's in my life, but we aren't going on dates. She's a good friend. And she's just perfect, we compliment each other very well and we work together well."
"Wait.... No way!" I say putting my hands on my face in shock.
"Yup." He said looking up and smiling at me.
"You like Nat!" I yell and freak out with such excitement for the two of them. I cover my mouth and huge smile.
"What! No!" He said grabbing my hands off my face.
"I see the way you two work together. I mean who else could it possibly be, you only work with her and I." I tell him and he looks me in the eyes. "No... Rogers don't tell me- is it...is it? Is it who I think it is?"
"If you're thinking of yourself then yes."
"Aww....Bubs it can't be me. I mean we're... well it's you and me."
"Exactly! That's it. It you and me, we're the same people that have given our lives for each other in every mission. We are the greatest partners." He said as he lets go and goes back to the food.
"Exactly Steve, we are partners. We go in each mission knowing we might die. And what if something does happen, that's on me! That's on me, because I'm your partner. We care to much about helping other that we lose ourselves and if we fall in love and fight, who's to say it won't make us worse."
"Nothing will happen."
"Something already did Steve... Because I love you I did that, and it's not fair for us to do that to each other because we have one another's best interest at heart." I tell him as he plates the food and sets it on the island. "I think... I think I should go home."
"Please don't." He tells me getting up and walking towards me as I get up and put on my jacket and grabbed my bag.
"I just... What did you think would happen?"
"I don't know? I thought you would tell me you loved me back." He said as he was now right in front of me.
"I do love you back. I love you more than anything... that's why I'm scared, and I need to think this over." I tell him and he looks at me with a gentle eyes.  He holds my face in his right hand. He touch was comforting, it was what I knew would save me. He was always my person.
"Can I kiss you?" He asked and I feel my heart race as I nod softly letting a yes slip past my lips. He leans in and kisses me resting his left hand on the small of my back. I dropped my bag and he started to take off my jacket slowly. My jacket hit the floor and I wrapped my arms around his neck jumping and wrapping my legs around his waist as he grips my thighs and pulls me closer. "Do you want to take this to my room?" He asked.
"I will do it right here right now if we don't." I tell him and he smiles. He carries me to his room and lays me down on the bed as he hovers over. Taking off his shirt and my sweat pants, throwing it across the room. I swipe his hand and get on top of him and he laughs.
"So that's how you want to do it?" He asked and I straddle him and I unbuckle his pants.
"What? You can't keep up with me anymore?" I asked as I rest my hands on his chest.
"I just don't want you to hurt yourself."
"Oh baby, trust me... I could do things you can only dream of. I won't hurt myself." I tell him and he grabs my face giving me another kiss, I lifted myself up and forward to get deeper into our kiss and he grabbed my hips bringing me back down onto his member. I felt him grow and I circled my hips. It was full of passion and pleasure. It was so relaxing but so loud and aggressive. When we finished we fell back onto the bed.
"We never ate our dinner." He said.
"I think I'm good for tonight. I was pretty full anyways." I tell him and I grabbed him shirt and throw it on. We should change the sheets. I tell him as he grabbed the sweats he had thrown earlier and threw them on.
"You have to change into some other sweats after cause you in gray will make me act up." I tell him and he laughs at it. We changed the sheets and got ready for bed. I went to sleep with him, and it was calming to fall asleep in his arms.

When I wake up I stretch out my arms and rub my eyes before opening them. I roll out of bed and go to the kitchen to get water. Then I go back to the room. I set my glass down in the night table and I pick up my phone. To see that I have a missed call from Nat. "Oh shit." I say as I call her back.
"Hello?"
"Hey Nat? Sorry, I didn't answer earlier I fell asleep early and slept in."
"No worries, I just wanted to see how you were. After the whole thing between you and Steve."
"It's all fine. We talked about it."
"Also I came to your house last night and your car wasn't there so I just want to make sure you were safe."
"I'm at Rogers place right now, we had dinner because he wanted to apologize."
"Wait! Do you two sleep together!"
"We are adult Nat. We can spend the night and not have sex."
"Who are you talking to?" Steve asked me wrapping his arms around my waist and putting his head in my lap.
"No way!" Nat yelled through the phone.
"I'm talking to Nat."
"Then why were you talking about sex? Did you want to go another round?"
"Steve!" I tell him smacking his hand.
"Now you can't deny it! I knew it would happen. It was bound to happen." She said and I laughed.
"Okay but we aren't dating. It was just a one time thing."
"Oh, I'm pretty sure it's bound to happen more than once." He tell me as I lay back on the bed.
"What do you mean you aren't dating?"
"Well no one has asked anyone out. Nothing is official. So please don't say anything about it." I tell her and Steve trails kisses down to my chest.
"I won't. I'm just happy for you two. I have to go now. But let me know how it goes."
"I will let you know if anything happens. Bye Nat love you."
"Love you. Bye." She said and she hung up.
"Come here." I tell him and I give him multiple little pecks. "You want breakfast?" I ask and he sits up straight.
"I'm going to make you breakfast. You stay here."
"Steve, it's okay. You just woke up. I can make breakfast."
"I will cook for my wife."
"I'm sorry? But I can't be your wife if I haven't been asked to be a girlfriend."
"Right. So... how you like to go on dates and hold hands? And I don't know be my girlfriend?"
"Oh I would love to go on dates with you Rogers. And I guess I could be your girlfriend." I tell him.
