The next morning, Melany woke up in her bed alone. The other side of the bed was made with a note lying on the pillow. She rolled over, grabbing the note. Her head was pounding from her drinking last night.

I wanted to let you sleep, last night was a lot for you. ;)

Sharon wanted to talk this morning so I went down with her. When you get up, come find me.

I love you.

- Steve R

Melany smiled, tracing her fingers over the pen scribbles. She bit her lip as she flung herself out of bed. She grabbed a change of clothes for after her shower. She shed Steve's large t-shirt off her and she stepped into the hot water. She washed off the pain out of her muscles from dancing and her amazing sex. She smiled, biting her lip as she thought of the night before.

Meanwhile, Steve and Sharon were walking outside around the building.

"I wanted to talk about us," Sharon spoke up after a moment of silence.

"What do you mean?" Steve looked at her, furrowing his brow and a small smile on his face. He was hoping she was joking.

"Steve, I miss you." She admitted, stopping in front of the doors to the compound.

"Sharon." He pressed his lips together, shoving his hands in his pockets.

"I remember you saying you'd wait for me to get back, and we could start where we left off." She sighed. "I know about the ring you have." She looked down at her feet, biting her lip.

"Sharon, I'm with Melany. I can't do this with you." He sighed, trying to push past her.

"Steve, wait. Please." She placed her hand on his chest. "You can't be that serious about her can you?" Sharon furrowed her brow. "You've been together a little over a month."

"She means a lot to me, Sharon. I'm not leaving her." Steve objected, pushing her hand off him.

"You know I hate begging." She griped, standing in front of him. "But, here I am, begging you." She paused. "That should tell you how much you mean to me." She muttered, running her hands along her chest.

Steve grabbed her hands. "Stop."

"C'mon, Steve." She looked up at him through her lashes. "I know you want this." She put his hand on her waist. He didn't move. "You've always wanted to get married, you've always wanted a family." She paused. "You know you can have that with me. But with Melany Banner?" She scoffed, continuing to look up at him. She bit the inside of her cheek.

He felt Sharon pull on him as the front of the compound doors opened.

"Steve—" Melany walked out to the front where she saw him but was cut off.

Sharon had pulled herself to Steve, kissing him. In the position they were in, it looked like he had kissed her. He kissed her back, not realizing Melany had walked outside.

Melany gasped, feeling tears well up in her eyes. She couldn't do anything but stand there and watch.

Sharon pulled back roughly, acting like the victim and quickly pulling her hands back to her. "You're disgusting!" She yelled at Steve.

Steve stood there, shocked. He wasn't even sure what had just happened. He looked at Melany who was staring there with tears falling down her cheeks, and her lip between her teeth as her chin quivered. Sharon turned around quickly, acting like she hadn't seen or heard Melany.

"Oh, gosh..." Sharon walked up to Melany. "I-I am so sorry." She said before walking past Melany and into the compound.

Sharon gave a big smile and good morning to Bucky, who was walking down the stairs. He gave her a confused look. He noticed Melany and Steve outside. He stood at the bottom of the stairs, watching them.
