Damien and Mia arrived at a charity gala for Childhood Cancer. As soon as they stepped off the stairs he let go of her arm. 

"Can you.." Mia started to say but Damien had already walked off towards the bar. 

"Get me a drink.." she whispered as she found their table. 

Mia Matthews looked around the room. She spotted Damien sipping his bourbon and coke as he laughed it up with some woman and another man. She looked down as she looked at her phone. 

"We haven't even been here ten minutes." She whispered as she got up and walked towards the bar. 

She got herself a vodka tonic and sat back down at the table. As she sat there she could see her fiancé being surrounded by other co workers including all the women. 

She sighed as she sipped her drink. 

As the night wore on she continued to be ignored by fiancé. Even during the dinner portion they had to sit with another co worker Lincoln Fabre and his wife Famke who made a snide remark about her wearing a mustard yellow dress that she looked like she wanted to blend into the background of the decor. 

As she was walking back to her table after getting her third drink of the night. Bucky Barnes Damien's boss was walking backwards as he talked to a group of people. He bumped right into Mia and made her spill her drink. 

"Oh god I am so so sorry. Here let me help." Bucky said as he pulled out his hanker chief. 

"It's okay." She whispered 

Bucky seen her face. "It's nothing a little club soda can't fix." She said with a forced smile. 

He saw her ring on her hand as Damien came over. 

"Hey boss I am so sorry she can be clumsy at times." Damien said 

"She's your fiancé?" Bucky said 

"Yes this is Mia Matthews she's a English professor at Rutgers. Come on love let's get you home and out of the dress." Damien said as he took her arm. 

"It wasn't her fault by the way I bumped into her. So you don't need to apologize." Bucky said as they walked off. 

When they got into the car. "How could you embarrass me like that?! That is my boss that you spilled your fucking vodka on!" Damien yelled 

"You heard him! He bumped into me!" She yelled back 

"Don't you yell at me Mia!" He snapped back. 

Mia began to cry as he drove through traffic. When they arrived at their penthouse the yelling continued as he tore her down for the spill. She cried herself to sleep after he left to go to a bar. While Bucky couldn't forget the image of her and how beautiful she was.
