A came back from a meeting and I came back to see Steve curled around a grenade-like the brave little dumbass that I know and love as a brother. I run over to scream after him, but Phillps catches me and whispers that it's a dud in my ear. I relax. So does Steve. The Doctor looks at Phillps and me, and we know with the look in his eyes that he wants Steve to be the one in the machine. We noded in compliance. 

I have been writing my husband but I haven't gotten anything back. But he was across the world and they only get mail once a week overseas. I decided to lessen my worry because Steve hadn't gotten anything back from him either.

Steve was big and perfectly healthy. It had worked and he had caught a hydra agent within the first hour of the experiment. I was very proud of him. He had the potential to do great things for our country. But our doctor was dead.
