Rosaleen Hill has a mysterious past with missing years that she cannot remember. While she's training to harness her powers and become an avenger she's caught in a love triangle between Steve and Bucky. Will she be able to recover her memories and c...
When my dress arrives to my room, Steve leaves to go change and get ready in his room. We don't want to walk in together so we decide to meet there.
I put my heels on and walk over to the mirror to admire how I look. I left my hair down with very loose curls and added some jewelry that Shuri had also given me to match.

After looking myself over one last time I decide to head down since I'm already a little late. The halls are quiet as I walk over, but the closer I get to the drawing room the louder the voices get.
I'm the last one to walk in as everyone else is already there. Honestly, there is way more people here than Shuri made it seem.
"Well look who decided to show up!", Tony teases me as he gives me a hug.
"I know I'm sorry! I lost track of time", I say embarrassed as I join the group.
"No don't be, I just walked in right before you. Normally I'm the last one", Nat tells me as she hands me a glass of champagne. "Coming last is a classic black widow move", Thor comments and the two exchange looks.
I give Nat a look trying to hide my smile at his comment so Tony won't notice. I look around for the rest, and find Wanda and Vis together, while Bruce is animatedly talking with Shuri probably about tech stuff.
Then my eyes finally land on the one I was looking for. Steve is talking with T'Challa and Sam. But hot damn Cap looks good in a dark suit.
I catch his eye and he motions for me to come over.
"Hello boys", I say as I join the group. "Rosaleen Hill man you're looking good", Sam tells me emphasizing each word as he gives me a hug.
Sam and I have easily become friends since I met him earlier this week. He can be such a hype man I love it.
"I could say the same about all of you", I say flirtatiously as I scan them all. That's when I notice Bucky standing there, his eyes firmly on me. I recognize him instantly from the photos I've seen of him.
Yet as I continue to look at him I can't help but have that funny feeling again like I know him or have seen him before apart from the photos that I've come across.
I smile warmly at him and extend my hand, "You must be Bucky. I'm Rosaleen".
His eyes search mine for a brief second before he takes my hand, "I know. Steve's told me a lot about you", he says with a smile that looks a little pained.
"He's told me a lot about you as well, I feel as though I know you", I reply warmly. But after I say this I notice he stiffens ever so subtly before relaxing, "Funny I feel the same", he tells me.
I smile again before glancing quickly at Steve to see his reaction, but he just gives me a small smile in encouragement. But inside I couldn't tell if Bucky was still just going through a difficult time, or if he just didn't like me.
We continue to talk for a little longer until T'Challa leaves us and makes the announcement that dinner is ready.
As everyone makes their way into the dining room, Steve puts his hand on the small of my back and whispers in my ear, "You look absolutely beautiful in that dress doll".
A smile spreads across my face at his words and I try to hide it so no one else sees it.
"If you like how I look in it you should see me without it", I whisper back. He raises an eyebrow at my remark , "Oh I plan to", he says seductively low causing my core to flutter.
"Hey Rosaleen come sit with me!", Tony says appearing out of nowhere and pulling me away from Steve. I look back at Steve and he gives me a small shrug as he sits across from me with Bucky while Sam sits down next to me.
Once everyone in the room takes their seats Tony whispers to me, "As long as I'm between you and Nat I won't have to make awkward conversation with strangers".
"Oh so you're using us?", I say in mock surprise.
"You should take that as a compliment", he tells me making me roll my eyes at him.
"I don't know how Pepper puts up with you", Nat teases him from the other side. "Oh come on you know you love me", he tells her making me smile.
"It's okay Nat, he'll just have to make it up to us later", I tell her as I lean over him.
"Uh I already did two favors for you Wreck It Ralph, so you owe me", he comes back, "Which that reminds me... I talked to your aunt this morning and she told me something interesting that happened".
I furrow my brows, "What happened?", I ask confused.
"You broke my window", he states.
I start laughing remembering what I did, "Oh. I was hoping you wouldn't find out... I'm sorry".
He slowly shakes his head in fake disappointment, "I had one rule Rosie. One rule. See this is why you're making it up to me now".
"Okay, okay you're right", I giggle.
...
Eventually several courses of food come and go, and by time the last one is finished my stomach is feeling extremely full. Sam groans next to me as he drops his fork, "I think I'm going to explode! This was better than sex", he says with a satisfied chuckle.
"I'm right there with you! But I wouldn't say it's better than sex. Great sex can be earth shattering", I say catching Steve smirk as he takes a drink out of his glass.
My eyes flick over to Bucky as I notice him looking at me, he must have also heard what I said. I look away quickly starting to feel nervous under his intense gaze. I begin to squirm in my seat still feeling his eyes on me.
"He does that a lot you know. You'll get used to it", Sam mutters to me catching on to my sudden nervousness.
I hide my mouth with my glass as I whisper back, "Why though? I feel like he's trying to read my mind".
Sam just laughs, "Yeah I know what you mean, but I wouldn't worry about it". Bucky stops after this, much to my relief.
Once the dessert course finishes, all conversations fall silent as T'Challa stands up.
"Now that our bellies are full I would like to say thank you to our guests. Last week, our home faced an attack by a man that was seeking revenge. But with the help of the avengers we were able to not only protect a friend", he says inclining his head towards Bucky, "but also our home. However, the one that we all need to give a special thank you to is Rosaleen Hill who gave us all insight to the attack through her premonitions. I ask you all now to raise a glass to Rosaleen who made our victory last week possible".
I sit there stunned and blushing deeply as everyone looks at me and raises their glasses in a toast. Steve looks at me with a proud look on his face and Tony whispers next to me, "Good job kid, I'm proud of you".
I did it. I've been waiting for this moment to use my powers to help others and its all happening now!
