"Y/n!!! Did you take my shield!?" Steve comes storming into the general communal area where I'm sat with Peter helping him with his homework. "Why the hell would I have your shield! Dipshit." I whisper that last part kinda wanting to avoid conflict. I'm not in the mood today, Peter has a big test coming up so I'm trying to help with his homework and extra study time. Since joining the team a week back things have been going good. Apart from being Steve's roomie and training partner. Ripping me out my thoughts Steve starts again with his whining.

"Well I left it by my bedside counter and it's not there anymore!"

"Oh so that means I've automatically taken it. You really are a piece of work asshat!"

"For the love of god! Will you stop calling me ASSHAT!"

"Bite me." I scoff turning away from him to focus back on Peter.

"Screw you tra-"

"Enough!" Peter slams his books on the table startling you both. "Hey... Shh... Shh...I'm sorry... It's okay... We're okay... I'm sorry Pete." I whisper whilst moving my hand to his stroking the top of it gently moving my other to stroke his cheek slightly comforting him. Peter and I have a history. I was there the day his parents were killed, he was too young to remember but I was there again when his uncle Ben died. Ever since then I've been like a big sister to him. I think it hit him hard me being undercover and radio silent for 9 months.

"Yeah sorry Peter, me and y/n were just messy around... right y/n?" I give Peter a soft smile before turning to face Steve, Peter could still see the side of me so I just gave Steve a warm smile before speaking "we sure were captain." giving a salute and wink laughing slightly. All three of us laughed together a moment. "But seriously Steve, I haven't seen your shield." He shifts awkwardly in his position "okay." Making his way back to the elevator he leaves me and Peter to finish off our study time.

"Y/n can I ask you something?"

"Of course Peter, what's bothering you?"

"Why do you hate Steve?"

"I have my reasons Peter, the main one being he's not given me a chance since we met."

"How do you mean?"

"He stormed my undercover mission you see. That's why I'm here now. But what makes it worse is yes understandably he mistook me for hydra but when he found out. He didn't even apologise and that hurts you know. I'm not a bad person, I just wish he'd see that."

"I can tell him y/n. I can convince him to give you a chance."

"No that's okay kid, he's shown his true colours and I'm not going to exhaust myself trying to convince someone who I don't like that I'm a good person."

"I'm sorry y/n."

"Not your fault kid, anyways I best go I've got a thing to get to."

"See ya y/n!"

"Thanks for agreeing to meet me. I know you've got a lot on."  I shift in my chair sitting across from Tony, he had agreed to meet to discuss a few things with me in regards my new roles and 'other' things.

"That's okay y/n. You know I'm always here for you."

"I know. I'm just... scared you know. The team don't even know the half of it. I mean how do I tell the team that I'm a secret super solider just like Buck and Steve. How do I tell them that at the age of 10 I was injected with the serum in 1948 which caused excelled growth, by 1958 I was captured and frozen by hydra until early 2000's. I was 20 years old! I'm now considered 83 years old! Then after Nick rescued me I started this life. Alone. Hydra murdered my family Tony. Ivy is god knows where. That's if she's even still alive! My brother! Dan he... he-"

"I know y/n. I know. But you have to remember we will always support you. Just like you've supported us."

"Tony I know but they're going to grow suspicious. I mean take Peter for example. I have literally watched him grow up since he was a child and he has no idea. Not really. He was too young the first time round to even know I was really there for him when his parents died."

"Y/N I don't know why your worrying. You don't have to tell them anything."

"Tony I don't age! Not anymore! Not since hydra took me after Bucky. I don't change. They're going to notice."

"You don't age?"

Shit.

"Yeah... hydra they did something to me. Haven't you even wondered in the last 15 years you've know me why I haven't changed."

"Who else knows?"

"Fury... *sigh* and Dr Banner."

"Bruce knows!?"

"Why'd you think I go to the lab everyday. We're trying to find a cure so the speak. I don't want to live a life not ageing when everyone else around me does. It's a pretty lonely life."

"Y/N I'm... im so sorry." Tony reaches across his desk taking your hand in his gently stroking the top with his thumb. I look up giving him a warm smile.

" I know. But if we don't find a way they're gonna find out." I  stand straightening myself up. "I've got to go train now. I'll see you later Stark."

Before he can answer me I'm right out the door rushing to my room to change. I'm late and I really could do without the grief from Mr Asshat America.

"You're late." I rush into the training centre avoiding Steve's glare. I can't help but bite back. "Bite me Rogers." I continue over to the punching bag. Wrapping my hands up. "Where were you?" Steve says in a very demanding tone. "With Stark." I continue to ignore his gaze and begin lightly punching the bag. When around others I always try and remain wary of my strength and play it down. I don't want the others knowing. Especially Steve and Buck.

"You're gonna do yourself an injury if you keep punching like that." Steve moves off his punching bag and makes his way over to me. "I'm punching just fine capsicle."

"Another nickname I see." He scoffs moving closer to watch me as I continue to punch the bag.

"What's it to you asshat? I'm trying to train."

"And like I said traitor, you're gonna do yourself an injury punching like that."

"I'll punch you in a minute." I mutter understand my breath.

"What did you say?" Taking another step closer crossing his arms. It was obvious he heard me.

"Nothing Captain." I shoot him a quick fake smile. "Now are you gonna train me or what?"
