A year later. 

Daisy is now 3 and Hudson turned 1 yesterday. Today me and Steve are going out on a date. Hudson crawls over and hugs me. "Aw my sweet boy" I said. I kiss his cheek and I go get ready. I put on a dark red dress that has a a deep dip at the front and a slit in it. I curl my hair and do light make up. I step out and Steve is ready in a suit. He walks over and kisses me. "You look amazing" said Steve. "So do you" I said. Mum walks in and smiles. "Go enjoy your whole day to yourselves." said mum. 

I hug mum goodbye and we leave. We get to the park and we walk around. I smile at Steve and he kisses me. We walk around and sit on a bench. I hold Steve's hand and kiss it. "I love you, so much, Ellie" said Steve. "I love you too, your amazing. I never thought I'd get real love" I said, smiling. He laughs and kisses me. Steve looks around and stands up. 

"Let's go for a walk, towards a restaurant." said Steve. I nod and stand up. We walk along the streets of New York and he stops outside a garden. He walks me inside and looks around. He looks at me and kneels. 

"Elliana, I never thought I'd find love after the ice. I was so caught up in fighting, that I forgot about love and then you walked in and showed me love. Ellie, your one of a kind and I love you so much and I would love to know if you will marry me?" asked Steve. He shows me the ring and I gasp. "YES!" I yell. He stands up and kisses me. 

He slides the ring on and I smile

He slides the ring on and I smile. "I love it. It's simple yet just my type" I said. I kiss him and Steve hugs me. "I love you, Ellie" said Steve. "I love you too, Steve" I said. We share another kiss and go to the cinema. 

Once we finish, we head to the restaurant and we order a large pizza to share. We talk about everything. "We finally have Daisy back with us and Hudson" said Steve. I kiss him and pay. We head home and mum looks at us. "You said yes, I hope" said mum. "Yeah, of course I said yes" I said, smiling and showing my hand. 

Mum leaves and I breastfeed Hudson and put him to bed as Steve puts Daisy to bed. We go to bed soon after.

NEXT DAY

"Ellie? You have a letter" said Steve. "Read it with me" I said.

"Dear Ellie, 

I wish to say sorry to you for everything that I have put you through. I wish I never accepted HYDRA's requests all these years ago but I was... poor, weak and nearly dead. I should have been truthful and put my foot down. After James was put under, brainwashed, they knew they didn't need to brainwash me because I said I'd do it willingly. I've killed more than James Barnes and I am so sorry. He did not kill JFK that was me. I was meant to kill Tony Stark and his wife but they made James B. Barnes do it. I have a feeling they knew his son would find out and find out who is his best friend. I wish I could say it face to face but SHIELD has decided that it is time I pay for my crimes. I wish you know how much I thought of you as a friend. I wish I never made you feel unhappy. You and Steve are amazing and I wish you well. Steve, look after Daisy for me. Elliana, I know you'd never forgive me and that's OK. I don't want you too. Live the rest of you life, happy, loved and just have fun. I will miss you. From Josh." I read out loud. I hug Steve. "I do forgive him, he just.... was missguided" I said. "He was. Promised happiness from HYDRA but never fully got it." said Steve. We share a kiss and call everyone over. Once they arrive, we announce it to everyone. 

I look at Steve. "Bucky, Tony me and Steve want to talk" I said. They nod and we go to our room. "Josh wrote us a letter. Apparently he was meant to kill your parents, Tony not Bucky. Josh was never brainwashed and he would have done it." I said. "I'm sorry Bucky" said Tony. "You don't have to say sorry. I do" said Bucky. "No, you don't. HYDRA should. You were forced. It was your hands but they did it. You had nothing to do with it. I'm sorry for attacking you, you too Steve" said Tony. "I know you are and I forgive you" said Steve. "So do I, even if you don't have too" said Bucky. I smile and once they leave, we order pizza and then we go to bed after the kids go to bed. 

We spend the night fondueing as some may say.

I am an engaged woman. 

Four chapters left. 

I will either do a Tom Hiddleston book or Loki book!
