CHARLOTTE'S POV

Whenever I was around him, I got so nervous and so clumsy that it was annoying. "You didn't scare me off. I'm just trying to give you the space you need to heal." I explained as I sat in front of him. I knew that if I got closer to him, I would end up on his lips and I had a lot to worry without him. "The doctor from S.H.I.E.L.D says I'm excellent and I feel excellent too." His answer made me stare at him. "Physically you look fine, but emotionally, are you as excellent as your body?" My question made him look down and I felt bad for bringing that up. "Look, you went through a lot and I just don't want to add more to that. So, yeah, we can kiss every now and then, but I'm not complicating your life with sex. Because I don't want to fuck you up more than you already are." He nodded once and stood up to the TV. "Any movie for today?" His question brought a smile to my face. He caressed my hand on his way to the couch and I giggled like a child.

"You're a soldier, which means you have to catch up on Star Wars, so I brought them all, but we're watching that after dinner. Right now, I want you to suit up and we can have a New Year's Eve date." He showed a smile and started walking to his room. "When you say suit up, you mean a suit, not the Captain America's uniform, right?" My mind was faster than my brain and I pictured him wearing his uniform. "Actual suit, dude." I spoke as soon as my brain started working again. "Good, because I don't have the uniform." He chuckled on his way to his room and I opened my bag and changed clothes. I was putting on some makeup, when the oven let me know the food was done. I put some fairy lights and some music, when Steve walked out of his room and I got lost on those eyes. He stopped walking when he saw my eyes on him and I stupidly enough motioned our surroundings. "It looks perfect." He spoke as he kept looking around and then stopped on me.

"Not as beautiful as you, but I can deal with it." I chuckled at his pickup line and brought some wine. He held my hand and kissed it. "Thank you for being here." His words warmed my whole being and I just leant in and kissed him. "No problem, Captain Rogers." I added a smile and he hummed. "Ha. Funny." His words made me laugh and then he kissed me again. When we finished eating, I brought the dessert and before I could sit down, he pulled me to his lap. I giggled at his action and his wandering eyes traveled my whole body and I felt self-conscious about my scar, so I tried to stand up. "No, stop." He whispered and I stayed there, looking at his eyes. "Where did you get that?" His question made me sigh. "A- A few long months ago, while uh- A mission, I was stabbed." I replied. "Is that the reason of your tattoos? To cover your scars?" I had forgotten about that too and my dress was not covering any rune.

"Yeah. I'm deciding what to put to cover this one." His hand went to my scar and caressed the skin surrounding it and it felt like I would explode. "You don't have to cover it. It's beautiful and it should make you feel proud of it." His words made me feel good with myself. Before I could do something about it, I felt his lips on me again. This time, they were not just in my mouth. They traveled from my jaw to my neck and stayed a while on my collarbone. "I could kiss you all night and I'd still feel like it's not enough." He whispered as he helped me up to my seat. I just managed to nod as my mind was too clouded to even say anything. He did not freak out with my runes or my scar. "This looks delicious." He added looking straight at me and I giggled as I tried to control my hormones. We ate and talked and turned out, we had plenty of things in common and even him was surprised that I knew a few of his things. "Are you staying tonight?" He questioned and I nodded.

"I can't let you welcome this new year on your own." I smiled at him as he leant in and kissed me like never before. There was calm and need and care and rage and I wanted more from him and for the first time, he was willing to give it to me. But I was too scared, so I just kissed him for hours until midnight. "Happy New Year." I whispered on his ear and he just kissed me again.
