The music from Tony Stark's Penthouse, blasted all through New York City, you would think it was a club but no, just The Avengers annual poker night commencing, which every year got blow way out out proportion in Steve's eyes.

(Y/n) stood at the reception, patiently waiting for Steve as the very welcoming lady at the front desk refused to let her in.

The first elevator door landed and Steve immediately caught sight of her, "(Y/n)!" He shouted.

As she turned around she couldn't help but grin. He was wearing the cutest button up shirt and a pair of khakis, along with a pair of old fashioned Oxfords. He was just adorable, there was no other way of putting it.

"Good evening Mr Rogers" she greeted him, "so what exactly am I getting myself into tonight?"

Steve laughed and guided her to the elevators, "well, I really hope you've brushed up on your poker skills, Tony's determined to win tonight" he explained as they both traveled upwards.

"I'm not that great so I hope I don't disappoint you" she joked.

"There's no way you could be any worse than Thor, it took us hours to explain how the game works, unfortunately they don't play blackjack on Asgard" The elevator stopped and the door opened, revealing the main living area, (Y/n) remembered it well from the night of the party, the night she met Steve.

All eyes darted to her and suddenly she felt like a deer in headlights. She had read so much about these amazing superheroes, about their accomplishments and achievements, and now she's was standing in front of them, about to play card games.

Steve sensed her nervousness, and placed a hand on her back lightly, "hey guys, I have someone I'd like you to meet"

Natasha rushed over along with Maria, "the famous (Y/n) who has been stealing our Captain away, I'm Natasha"

"And I'm Maria" she smiled.

(Y/n) shook her hand "it's lovely to meet you".

Steve led her further in "and this is Dr Bruce Banner, Thor-"

"The almighty God of Thunder" Thor interrupted, shaking her hand.

Steve rolled his eyes playfully but continued his introductions, "anyways, then we've got Clint Barton, Sam Wilson, Colonel Rhodes and my buddy James Barnes"  they all before her, offering friendly smiles and exchanging 'hello's.

Bucky stepped forward and reached out for her hand, placing a soft kiss upon it "please call me Bucky".

"Ok that's enough Buck" Steve piped up.

"You forgot the most important person here!" A voice yelled from the bar.

"Of course" Steve muttered "(Y/n) this is Tony Stark".

Tony approached her and shook her hand firmly "(Y/n)? Am I right in thinking your husband is Joe Prescott?" He asked.

(Y/n) laughed nervously "fiancé actually, but yes".

"Yeah, I remember meeting him at my party a while back, smart businessman but I never got the chance to meet his beautiful wife to be" he said eyeing her up slightly.

"Well I'm glad I have met you now Mr Stark" she smiled

"Likewise"

Steve clapped his hands and sat down at the poker table, making sure he saved a seat for (Y/n) next to him.

"Shall we get started then?" He asked, excited for the night ahead.

"So who's ready for poker night?" Everyone's head turned, to see Sharon standing at the elevator door, holding a bottle of champagne.
