Finally you came into my life 🤍

Chapter 13 ~ Party and Flirting

Reader's p.o.v.

Steve was just looking at me, without saying anything.
"I don't know, sweetheart. Tony invited her, maybe because she is a co - worker. Why?"
"Nothing, is just... no, I'm sorry forget it. It's just that we're not friends, we haven't even met."
Steve held my hand and we went in a corner, so no one could hear us.
"I can tell that something else is going on." he gave me a small smile and I took a breath.
"Look, I don't have something against her, but she... she's your ex." Steve smirked. "Don't smirk."
"I like it when you get jealous." I hit him playfully on his chest. "I don't care that she's here. This is your night and you said it yourself, she's my ex. I don't want to be with her, I wanna be with you." he smiled at me.
"Kiss me." I whispered and he did it. Sweet and gently.
When he broke the kiss, he put a strain of hair behind my ear, holding my cheeks with his palms and I felt safe. 

Then suddenly we heard someone cleaning their throat. We turned our heads and we saw her. Sharon Carter.
We took a few steps away and I smiled at her.
"Welcome to my party, I'm y/n Carter." I told her with a smile - not a fake one, I swear - and I extended my hand.
"I know who you are. Our new criminologist and Captain America's new girlfriend." She said as we shook hands and then she looked at Steve.
"Hello there, Steve."
"Hey, Sharon." he simply said. "How are you?"
"Good. I came here tonight to meet y/n." she smiled at me, but it seems a little weird. "Do you want to have a drink?"
I looked at Steve, who nodded at me. "I'll be with the guys." he smiled and kissed my forehead.
When he left, I looked at Sharon. This will be super akward.
We sat in the bar and I saw with the corner of my eye that Nat and Wanda were shocked with what they were seeing.

"What will you have?" I asked her.
"A Dry Martini, please." she said to the barman.
"I'll have a vodka." I said. This will be a long conversation.
"So, y/n, tell me about you." Sharon told me.
"What is it? An interrogation?" I asked her, kinda pissed.
"No, don't take it like that. I just want to know more about you. Maybe will be partner in the near future."

Steve's p.o.v.

"What the hell is this?" Bucky asked me as I sat next to him, pointing at y/n and Sharon.
"I don't know. While we were talking, Sharon interrupted us and asked y/n to go with her."
"Maybe she's up to something." Sam said suspiciously.
"Or maybe she wants to know her better because they will cooperate someday." I said and Bucky rolled his eyes.
"Don't be naive. She'll probably wants to keep an eye on her now that y/n is your girlfriend. Be careful." Bucky advised me.
"I trust y/n. She is smart enough to  know whatn to do." I said.

An hour has passed and y/n was still talking with Sharon.
"I'm very curious of what they are saying." Sam said.
Then Sharon got up from the chair and shook hands with y/n. That is... weird. Y/n came towards us.

"Everything's alright?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Surprisingly yeah. She said probably we will cooperate and we got to know each other."
"I don't trust her." Bucky said as he took a sip from his whiskey.
"You don't trust anyone." Sam said. "She didn't reference to Steve?"
"No. But anyway I don't want to talk about her." She said and I chuckled. 

Before I was able to talk to her, Nat and Wanda took y/n so they can go for a dance.
"I will see you later, darling." she said and kissed me. "Bye guys."
"Bye!" they said in union.
"I gotta say, she's nice and all, but Steve, she's gorgerous." Sam said and I smirked.

"What did Sharon want from you?" Wanda asked me and I told them everything.
"Just like that? That's strange." Nat said.
"I pretty much don't care. Come on let's go dancing with the others."
People were on the floor dancing and along with them was Thor, Peter, Pietro and Clint.
