Forever and Always

Prolog

I'm wiping down a table at the diner I work at when the door opens. A middle-aged man sits down at a booth as one of the other waitresses greeted him. I turn to put the rag back and see him getting a little handsy. "Sally, could you pass me the coffee please." I ask the waitress behind the counter. I pour a cup and walk over to him as the girl walks away with his order.

The man chuckles "well I guess this place has a really great service" I dump the cup of hot coffee on him. "Gah!" He jumps up and walks out of the restaurant. "Don't come back!" I call after him in my customer service voice.

"Well damn doll, it's been a while since I've seen this side of you." I turn around with a smile, instantly recognizing the voice. "Hey Buck, come in. I'll be done with my shift soon." He follows behind me, getting a few greetings from the girls working.

I finish a few more tables, grab my things and leave with Bucky, but not before Bucky snags a date with Sally. "I don't get it" I look at him as we walk back to our apartment. "Don't get what?" He looks over at me. "Sally is a nice girl, why go out with you?" "Hey!" He hits my shoulder.

I laugh and open the door to see Steve laying on the couch. "Hey Stevie" I smile and walk over to him. I look down and see he's all bruised and beaten. I sigh as Bucky sees what happened. "Steve" he says almost like a parent scolding their child "what did we say about getting into fights?" He quizzes "especially without me!" I exclaim earning a smack from Buck.

I help Steve to the bathroom where I get him patched up. After cleaning everything up the three of us made dinner and had a really good time dancing around (although the boys have two left feet). When Bucky left for his date Steve went to bed. I decided to stay up for a bit longer.

I walk over to the stack of mail and shuffle through it. Bills, bills, more bills, and a letter for Bucky from the Army? I read the letter and freeze. What the hell!?

Around 10:30-11:00 Bucky comes through the door all giddy but stops when he sees my sulken face. "Doll? What's wrong? Are you okay?" He grabs my face carefully examining it. I shove his hand off "When were you going to tell us?" I try to keep my voice down. "Tell you what?" He puzzles. I scoff, pain dripping from the noise. "That you were drafted" I throw the papper at him while fighting off tears.

He looks at the letter and back at me. "You went through my mail?" He quietly shouts at me. "You left it out, don't go blaming me". He pinches his nose bridge "Okay, yes. I was, but you can't tell Steve. It would tear him up." I roll my eyes and start to walk away "Don't worry. It's not my secret to tell." I close my bedroom door behind me and went to bed, dreaming of everything bad that could happen.

Hello my Sparks! I know this chapter was a short start but it was just a quick little background. I will be starting off with First Avenger next chapter. Unfortunately (if you haven't seen my post) this story will take longer to make mainly because my band director is a dick who over works the band. Anyways I hope you all enjoyed and plan to stick with me through another adventure (and if it's your first time welcome). Have an amazing day/night my Sparks!
