Listen | Steve Rogers

Attacked.

"Stay," I whispered and he looked surprised, but nodded and sat next to me, I moved to him, and he pulled me into his arms where I was buried in his chest, I clung to him, his hands running through my hair.

"I'm sorry." He said and I looked at him confused.

"Why?" I whispered.

"You were alone." He said. "I should have been there." He muttered and I shook my head.

"How were we gonna know he was here?" I asked and he huffed. "Please steve don't blame yourself- Brad is the one at fault-"

"And now I want you to file a restraining order," Steve said and I nodded.

"Okay," I said and he gently grabbed my jaw looking at me.

"Are you okay?" He asked again, and I looked at him, he meant emotionally, not physically, I bit my lip starting to tear up, he saw and I laughed as the tears came out, he looked confused as I smiled and cried.

"I stood up to him!" I laughed and he realized why I was happy. "He- he can't control what I do anymore- can't scare me- I stood up to him, I kicked him right in the fucking balls too!" I laughed and I saw him begin to smile at me. "Steve!" I jumped into his arms, into his lap, and held him to me, I felt him hesitate but his arms wrapped around my waist and up my back, feeling me. "Thank you," I mumbled and he hummed. "For protecting me and- being here," I said and he rubbed my back.

"It's my pleasure, Princess." He whispered to me and I pulled away looking into his eyes. "Y/N-" he was cut off by the voice of my dad.

"Hunny?" I huffed and then kissed Steve's cheek, mumbling.

"Gimme a moment with dad." And got off him. "Thank you- again, -" I grabbed his hand as he got up, I saw him gently touch the spot I kissed. "I'll come out after talking to dad," I said and he nodded leaning down and kissing my head. Dad came in right after along with pepper, both asking if I was okay and hugging me, I held back my tears saying I wasn't hurt. Pepper grabbed my face and looked at me, and I looked at her, it was like I was put back when she did, I remembered she used to do that when I would scrape my knee, and she always kissed my head, she was like a second mother to me. When I was younger I used to call her mama because dad would make jokes saying 'she doesn't need a kid 'cause she has you.' I smiled at her and she kissed my head. "Thanks, mama," I mumbled and she smiled wide, she seemed to also remember.

"Come on baby, we still have all night to have fun." She said and I stood up, dad with and we walked out. I saw steve sitting there bouncing a knee looking very impatient, I smiled and moved over to the bar first, asking for two shots and downing them before moving over to him, I leaned over the couch, behind him, slipping my arms around his neck.

"Hey," I mumbled and he hummed leaning his head back onto my shoulder.

"Hey." He whispered and I smiled hearing his voice low like that.

"I'm gonna go to the dance floor..." I mumbled and he looked at me, he hummed.

"Not without me." He said and I hummed.

"That was the plan Cap," I said moving away and walking to the exit of VIP, and he got up following, he grabbed my hand and I lead him out of view of the others, I turned to him and he pulled me to him, we moved with the beat. It was a faster one, Gettin' Jiggy Wit It, by Will Smith, one I haven't heard in a long time so I couldn't help but smile as our bodies moved against each other, he seemed to not get the song but he matched my energy which I've never had happened before, I ended up with my back to him, had his hands on my waist and his chest flush with my back and the song became slowed with Bump n' Grind coming on, I hummed leaning my head back and he looked down at me, I smiled up at him, he couldn't help but smile back, out hips moving to the same pace together, his hands moving from my hips to my stomach, making me all butterfly, he was a fucking dream I swear. I turned so my chest was pressing into his, still moving the same way, his hands sat at the small of my back, mine rested on his biceps, and he leaned down to me, our faces close as we moved together, getting closer but suddenly we heard Sam and Bucky.

"Steve!" He moved away with a huff and looked around seeing them walking toward us, we pulled apart and went to meet them in the middle but we still held hands. We stopped and Sam huffed. "The cops are here, they are out front and are asking for you two." He said and he nodded looking at me.

"You ready?" He asked and I nodded. "Okay let's go." He said and pulled me away, we made our way out to the front seein in the parking lot there were two patrol cars and one had brad cuffed in the back, I saw the rest of the team come out, as one of the officers walked over to me.

"You the young lady he attacked?" He asked and I nodded.

"Y/N Stark, officer," I said and he hummed nodding.

"Mind telling me the history you have with him, 'cause he's very vocal about you." He said and I looked at all my coworkers and friends my dad and pepper, sighing.

"We dated back when I was 19, and he was very verbally abusive toward me, I left him in 2017 when I was 22 because it became physical, I never reported it because I never really saw him again... But the stalking started and he was sending me letters-" I sighed and he hummed, I saw the whole team looking worried, no one knew except dad and Steve.

"So I'm guessing you're pressing charges?" He asked and I nodded.

"I am. I'll be filing a restraining order, other than that I just want this to be over officer, to move on with my life." I said and he nodded.

"Mind if you get in your car and follow us to the station to get these papers in, and we can set you up for a court date to get those restraining papers in your hand ma'am, I'm glad he didn't cause any severe harm to you." He said and I smiled.

"That be thanks to Steve," I said and turned to him. "Alright we're ready to go," I said and the officers got in their cars, steve escorted me to mine and he got in the driver's seat. "We'll meet you all home!" I yelled and they all have and nodded, I sighed as I got in and closed the door, steve reached over and put his hand on my thigh rubbing it, soothing me, I reached down and slipped my fingers between his, and he flipped his hand over to our palms pressed into each other his hand was big compared to mine, I pulled his hand up and kissed his palm, I saw him look at me, but I just kissed his palm again, running my fingers along the lines in his hand, putting my hand next to his and I smiled. I glided my finger along his and he hummed smiling, I felt the car stop and he moved over grabbing my hand and kissing my palm, I felt my cheeks heat up, and then he pressed the hand I kissing into it, which made my body tingle, he probably didn't mean anything by it, but it made me all flustered.

"Let's go inside and get this done with." He said touching my cheek, and I nodded, we got out and went in, and after pressing charges and planning a date to get a restraining order, he pulled me out and into his arms as he walked me over to the car. "We sleep tonight, we go to Paris tomorrow." He said and I gasped jumping up and down against him.

"Oh, I'll show you everything! The Eiffel tower, the food the shops! The Louvre! Notre Dame! The most romantic city in the world." I said turning, and pushing into him, he hummed looking down at me.

"Most romantic?" He asked and I nodded.

"Mhm! You get to see my apartment, and we'll be alone." I said and he hummed, sounding so pleased.

"Let's get home then huh?" He whispered and I nodded, we got home and when I got dressed I skipped over to his room and knocked, he opened the door, shirtless again and I poked my fingers together.

"Can I... Stay with you tonight?" I asked and he nodded pulling me in against him without hesitation, he picked me up and put me on the bed and climbed in with me, I cuddled into him, and his chest, his hands gripping me in a way that enjoyed.
