Peggy took off her heels and I the boots I had borrowed from the drying line before we made our way to the water.

"It's been a life time since I came here," peggy looked at me," what about you steve?"

She stopped walking when she saw my eyes were glassy.

"James and I would come here when we were kids. My mom would save up all she could and argue end of every month. Well she'd take us from Brooklyn all the way up here and spoil us."

"I'm sorry Steve."

"I am too. Id love it if Bucky could be here to see the new world with me."

"When time resets go to the ice box on the wall next to me. Once my door gets opened. You might like what you find."

She started walking till she reached the water. She dropped her heels then ran in. I followed. Peggy started to splash me with water and I to her till I pulled her into my arms.

"I promise you will make it out of this. Peggy I promise you your life back."

"You already gave it back to me."

We smiled at each other and closed our eyes to lean in for a kiss then faded back to just before everything happened.
