Runaway ~ Steve Rogers x OC

Chapter 1 | Part 11

May 15th, 2015
5:15 pm. 

Today was Aurora's funeral. The funeral was scheduled for 5:00 pm and would have many of Aurora's friends in attendance. 

Aurora had decided not to go to the funeral even though it would be a power move. Yesterday Aurora had snuck into the country club where the funeral would be held and set up her own security cameras that wouldn't be detected by any Stark Tech. 

Since there wasn't a body to bury Aurora's funeral would be held at a Country Club where there would be a memorial-type event.

Aurora had her laptop set up with footage from her cameras playing in real-time. Surprisingly Aurora didn't feel like she was going to burst out crying any second she was surprisingly calm. 

Aurora had snacks set around her room and had a beer with her. Who could watch their own funeral sober? She was eating and drinking and scrolling on her phone while waiting for the funeral to start. Twitter was obviously blowing up because those people had nothing else to do. 

Aurora got off of her phone when someone walked into the room. 

It was Steve. 

"How the hell does he look so hot?" Aurora asked herself eating a chip. Aurora watched as her boyfriend sat down in the first row all by himself. She noticed how he sat still looking down at his lap. She noticed how he didn't move or look up when Natasha walked into the room with her head held high. 

Everyone walked into the room slowly but the last one in was Tony. He was wearing sunglasses and had no expression on his face which was expected. 

"Oh my god, you idiot it's not your fault," Aurora said shaking her head and eating more chips. 

"Welcome everyone. I'm Director Fury. I will be leading this funeral. Aurora Stark was a very infuriating person. Now hear me out. The first time I met her she never stopped asking questions. Then when the Avengers were first assembled she was always babbling with her brother about science stuff and using her powers to mess with agents." Fury said laughing at the memory. 

"Did Fury just laugh?" Aurora asked in shock. "What has the world come to," Aurora mumbled taking a sip of her beer. 

"Aurora Stark was the best superhero. She cared about everyone, got her mission reports in on time, focused when the time was right and never once stopped fighting for the greater good. We need more people like her in the world. I'm glad to have met her." Fury said and everybody bowed their heads for a moment of silence. 

"Now may I introduce Natasha Romanoff who would like to say a couple of words about Aurora," Fury said moving aside as Natasha stood up. 

"Why does everybody look so good at my funeral?" Aurora asked eating more hot Cheetos. 

"For those of you who don't know me, I'm not a woman of many words, Aurora knew that best out of everyone. Aurora always brought out the best people. It was like she had an extra superpower to do that. Somehow Aurora managed to make a spot in my cold cold heart and I know she would've yelled at me for calling myself coldhearted but it's true. Nobody has made me laugh as much as Aurora, nobody has made me smile as much as Aurora and nobody has loved me as much as Aurora has. It's a shame she chose to date the fossil because we would've been a power couple. Aurora's memory will always live on. Thank you." Natasha said and walked off the podium and sat back down next to Steve who handed Natasha a tissue. 

"We would've been a badass couple honestly," Aurora commented. 

"Natasha and Aurora being together would have put the world in shambles. Now Aurora's boyfriend Captain America himself is going to come up." Fury said and Steve walked up.
