This is a oneshot i posted on tumblr for a halloween challenge but I've only just had time to get to posting it here! 

This one shot is technically also a sneak peak into my upcoming (super long ass) series as it will take place in that universe, this can be read as a stand alone obviously but for some context:

The reader is half human half Asgardian. her birth mother died when she was a baby and Odin (her father) took her to Asgard where she lived until the events of the firsts avengers. She has powers over the elements. This takes place after the events of Captain America: The Winter Solider and before Age of Ultron

For the first time since moving into the Avengers tower there was absolutely nobody around. Tony was spending a week away with pepper, Thor was off world, Bruce was at a science convention and both clint and nat were away. Steve didn't know where and when he asked they told him it was confidential.

It didn't bother Steve though because it meant you and him had an entire week to yourselves. The first night to alone the two of you got comfy in the cinema room for a movie night.

"So what are you thinking? A horror movie?" You smirk earning a glare from Steve.

"No, anything but horror" Steve says as you laugh.

It was a well known fact between the two of you that Steve hated horror movies. Steve wasn't sure what it was about them but he just hated them, always has probably always will. He thought that maybe being in the modern world would make it easier, that they'd be less scary but after watching Saw with you he refused to watch another.

"Even though it's Halloween in a couple weeks?" You smirk earning another glare from Steve "okay okay, we'll watch disney instead" you chuckle.

"Thank you" Steve sighed as you put the movie on and pulled you closer.

Now Steve wasn't a skittish person in anyway. There wasn't much that scared him. However throughout the week he'd noticed things weren't quite as they should be.

To begin with Steve's rational mind won out, there's was perfectly fine explanations for everything. Like he'd just forgotten that where he left something, or you had moved it without telling him. That the only reason Steve saw one of Tony's suit activate was a system update like JARVIS explained.

But as the week went on more things were happening that he couldn't explain. Like the temperature suddenly dropping, or random dripping noises. The peanut butter jar suddenly moving when his back was turned and you weren't in the room. At one point he could have sworn he heard voices in the wind.

It was your last night alone before the team all came back so Steve was determined to make the most of it. You had cooked the two of you a delicious meal putting out all the stops. You relaxed together with a bottle of wine. However Steve's mind kept going to all the strange things that had happened.

"Do you believe in ghosts?" Steve asked making you raise a brow.

"Um I dunno, on Asgard we believe our dead go to Valhalla or the stars, and they're kinda looking down at us observing which I think is nice, especially knowing Loki and my mother could be looking down on us" you say shrugging your shoulders.

"But then again... we've seen so many strange things, aliens, evil elves, a computer nearly blew us up a few months ago, so maybe ghosts isn't that far fetched" you continue making Steve nod his head slightly.

"Why'd you ask?" You ask taking a sip of your wine.

"No reason, just you know Halloween and that" Steve says waving it off.
