*Knock knock*
I wake up slowly to an empty bed and a little note on my bed side table
Left before Natasha caught me
- B
I stuff the note into the drawers and get up "hold on" I say grabbing a shirt to throw over my half naked body, I open the door with a little smile to see Natasha "want to go on a run?" She asks "sure let me just get changed" I say opening the door wider so she could come in, I grab some leggings and a sports bra before heading into the bathroom to get changed. I walk out and smile "how are you not hung over?" Natasha asks, Venoms head snakes out of my shoulder with one of his morbid smiles "that's because I practically cure her" Venom replies "I have to get used to that" Natasha laughs "I'm always here, just sitting quietly" Venom says, he looks at me with a small chuckle before going back inside of me "just so you don't forget" Venom says "so no matter what Venom is always listening?" Natasha asks as we walk out of my room "yeah, he feels what I feel, he hears what I hear and he sees what I see" I say
"Isn't that creepy?" She says and I shrug "got used to it, he's part of me now" I say, we begin running around the compound "so how was it in that hospital? I saw that you were the only one in that cage" Natasha says "they couldn't explain what I had, all the tests were inconclusive. They couldn't figure out where Venoms voice was coming from, of course he didn't make an appearance in there because they would just rip us apart if they did know and we weren't going to take that risk" I say "what made you trust us?" Natasha asks "from what I've seen most of us went through at least something traumatic, you with the red room, Bucky with Hydra, Mr Stark with the terrorist. Granted that nobody has an alien living inside of them but I figured who would understand more than a bunch of other damaged people" I say with a laugh "very true" Natasha replies laughing along with me
"I'm sorry it took me so long" Natasha says "you had your own thing going on Nat it's fine. What happened with Yelena?" I ask "I haven't seen they separated us" Natasha replies "do you think she's out there somewhere?" I ask "it's definitely worth having a look, I'm sure Stark would lend us a hand" Natasha says and I nod "we had good times didn't we?" I ask "we did" Nat replies and I nod slowly as we come to a stop "it's weird having you around again, it's weird having people around me again. It's almost like I don't even know how to socialise with anyone anymore, I had this one guard who would always sneak alcohol to me in Hydra that's the only reason I even found out how to drink" I say with a laugh "why would he?" Natasha asks "he was in love with me" I reply with a shrug "with everything that was happening I don't even know if I'm capable" I say with a shrug
"You've been through a lot in the past 15 years, this is the time you have to explore your own world" Natasha replies "here's an idea, a party? You'll get to socialise with us and other people" Natasha says and I just stare at her for a little while "they'll be a lot of alcohol" she says and I laugh but nod "okay" I say "sounds good" I say and she smiles "I'll go get it sorted" Natasha says and walks away leaving me on my own "hey" Steve says joining me "hi" I say getting shy "oh someone has another crush" Venom says "or is it the blue eyes that make your knees shake? Maybe you're just into super soldiers" Venom continues and I massage my head "is everything okay?" Steve asks getting worried, he gently rests his index finger under my chin and lifts up my head so I could look at him when I don't reply "yeah I'm okay, Venom can be a little loud sometimes" I reply "I heard about the party that we are hosting for you" Steve says and I smile "right, Natasha thinks it's a good idea after I told her I lack social skills" I say with a small laugh "I think you deserve a party in your honour, you've been through a lot and this is your home now Angel" Steve says and I smile up at him
"I don't think anyone has ever said things like this to me before" I say "you deserve to hear it" Steve says tucking a strand of hair behind my ear innocently with a small smile "it would be nice to get to know you more Angel" Steve says before giving me a little wave and running off in the direction Nat and I just came from, i clear my throat and walk in "hey" Bucky says "hi" I say surprised "I thought you had training today" I say "I did" Bucky replies "what you wearing for the party?" Bucky asks pulling me closer softly with his pupils expanding drastically from lust "he's practically drooling, take him with you" Venom adds and I clear my throat once again "probably a dress" I say "easy to take off?" Bucky whispers "so easy" I flirt with a small smile, Bucky gives me a smirk before walking away
"So is it super soldiers? Is that your type?" Venom asks "Venom that's not what's going on here" I say "I feel what you feel Angelina, I know exactly how it is" Venom says making me cringe "you seriously have to stop with these comments, it's nothing okay? I've been locked up for 15 years now my womanhood is just exploding with curiosity" I say "how about them both?" Venom asks "what?" I ask "have a taste and then make a decision" Venom continues "no absolutely not I'm not doing that to neither of them" I say walking into my room, Venoms head snakes out of my shoulder and faces me with one of his creepy smiles "I lost my damn virginity yesterday Venom, this is not going to happen" I say "I can feel what you feel, your nerves are on overdrive for being with an alien in your body. Everything feels heightened and you've finally got a taste of what you wanted, will you really settle for a single person so quickly without enjoying the best parts of life?" Venom says and I just stare at him in silence
"I'm not saying yes" I say "but you're not saying no" Venom adds "they are best friends" I say heading into the bathroom "single and I don't see the problem, why not have a super soldier sandwich" Venom suggests and I laugh really hard causing him to join me "you are unbelievable" I say and Venom just continues laughing "get back inside I'm going to shower" I say rolling my eyes but still laughing quietly, I can hear Venoms faint chuckles in my head
A couple of hours later I am looking at myself in the mirror
"I have never seen you look like this" Venom says snaking out of my back "me neither" i say still shocked "that grey jumpsuit did nothing for you" Venom says and I just laugh at him *knock knock* I walk to the door to see Steve "hey Steve" I say smiling "Hey Angel, Venom" Steve says "super soldier" Venom replies with a short nod before going back into me "I thought I could um maybe pick you up" Steve says with a nervous laugh "thank you" I say walking out, Steve offers me his arm and I take it "you look beautiful" Steve says and I smile "so do you" I say looking into his eyes causing me to trip over and let out a squeal, Steve catches me before I hit the floor "I don't know how to wear heels" I say laughing "I say you did pretty well" Steve jokes before setting me back on my feet
"Simply delicious" Venom says and I fight the urge to roll my eyes at his inappropriate comments "Venom seems to be a little more quiet today" Steve says and I let out a laugh while shaking my head "Trust me he hasn't. I've just been ignoring that annoying little voice at the back of my head" I say, hearing this, Venom makes me trip over again "For the love of God" I complain, Steve just laughs along with me as we walk into the party room together "I don't know how girls do this" I whisper to Steve "Do what?" Steve asks "Socialise, flirt, wear heels" I blurt out "Yeah I understand that" Steve says and I frown
"Last time I flirted with a girl was in 1945 and I was terrible at it, it's really unbelievable that she even fell in love with me" Steve says making me laugh "I didn't even have the chance to do anything, people say that you start when you're young right? You get to 17 and your life starts" I say "Yeah I've never been the flirty type, Bucky on the other hand got all the girls back then. He has always been a womanizer" Steve says "I see that" I say nodding over to Bucky who's leaning against a wall in front of a girl making her giggle "He's looking for other girls, why don't you do the same?" Venom asks and I take a deep breath
"Do you want to dance with me?" I blurt out, Steve looks at me looking slightly amused "Yeah" Steve says, we walk to the dance floor and begin to sway our bodies together to the music "I didn't expect you to be this good" Steve says into my ear "Had a lot of free time" I say turning my face to look at him, our faces are centimetres apart, our lips almost touching as we looks into each others eyes. My heart is practically beating out of my chest "There she is" Mr Stark says, I turn around quickly while swallowing hard "You should've kissed him" Venom says "I almost did" I reply "Yet you didn't" I reply "Natasha has been looking everywhere for you" Mr Stark says, I glance at Steve who just nods looking as disappointed as I am currently feeling
"Hey" Natasha says looking me up and down amused at how I look "You pulled yourself together very nicely" Wanda adds smiling "Thank you, you both look great too" I say returning a smile "Were you dancing with Steve?" Wanda asks looking overly smug while pushing a glass of whiskey onto my hand which I take in one go "Yeah I was" I reply, Natasha is currently analysing my face "Who did you sleep with? I know that glow, it's a 'I just got laid' glow" Natasha says "Bucky" I say without thinking, our eyes widen as they both stare at me "Angel, you understand that he's not someone you date" Natasha says and I nod "That was the whole point, I was drunk and horny and 25 year old woman who had never been touched and gosh he was just so good" I say .
Natasha and Wanda share a look "Tell us more" Wanda says and I laugh "I thought you would've killed him" I say to Natasha "A woman's gotta eat, now spill" Natasha says and I let out another laugh "Not that I have anything to compare the whole situation with but it was so good" I say "And Venom won't stop instigating situations" I say "But those eyes are so blue" Venom says "Yes, the blue eyes are a bonus Venom" I say "Steve or Bucky?" Natasha asks "Both, I am so confused I have this crazy sexual attraction for both. But I can't do that" I say
"Why not? Have a super soldier sandwich" Wanda says "That's exactly what Venom said" I laugh and they join "Can I interrupt?" Steve asks, I look back to look at him and he smiles "I love this song and um, the girls won't dance so" Steve rambles "She'll dance with you" Natasha says spinning me around and practically pushing me "Super soldier sandwich" Natasha whispers in my ear, Steve and I walk to dance floor and continue dancing together "Are you having a good time?" Steve asks and I nod "Yeah I really am" I say "I don't usually dance this much, I stay for a while then leave" Steve says
"Why?" I ask and Steve shrugs "I guess I just get bored" Steve replies "But with you here, it's different" Steve says "Do I keep you entertained Steve?" I flirt and he gives me a little smirk "In the best way possible" Steve replies, Steve stares into my eyes for a few seconds "Come with me" Steve says and I frown but nod "Where?" I ask and he just smiles, we walk up the stairs and into the terrace "The terrace?" I ask and he nods "It's the perfect view of the stars" Steve says walking over to the railing of the terrace and looks up to the sky, I join him with a smile as I also look up at the stars "I forgot how beautiful earth is" I say, Steve looks down at me "I forgot the feeling of the sun against my skin, how beautiful the sky can get, the wonderful smell of the rain, the stars, the clouds" I say happily
"How the cool wind feels on my skin" I say, Steve turns his body around so he's facing me "I am so grateful that I can feel it all again" I say "What are you thinking?" I ask "I never realised how the little things are so important in life" Steve says and I nod "You only do when you don't have it, I never want to miss the chance of living a happy life ever again. I'm just going to hug all the possibilities" I say "And I think you should too Steve" I say just as Steve pulls me into a deep kiss, we pull away and I look at him shocked "What um" I say speechless "I was just hugging all the opportunities" Steve replies making me smile, I pull him into another kiss and get lost in his touch and affection
