"No, absolutely not Y/N!"

"Why not Steve! I have to try something!"

"I agree you do, but letting them insert you with the serum again?"

"But that's the thing, it isn't the same serum, that's what you're not getting." for the last few hours Steve and I had been arguing on and off about the situation and the idea of me going through another serum trial.

"Oh so that makes it so much better huh?"

"Steve, why are you getting so worked up about this! It's my choice and my body... Look I know it didn't end so well after the original serum but Tony has assured me he and Bruce have adjusted the formula. They're confident it will work this time."

"And what if it doesn't?" I can see Steve's eyes begin to mist, emotion washing over his body.

"Then that's just a risk I'm going to have to take Steve... I know it's scary but as long as I have you by my side, no matter what happens, we can get through this... together."

"God I love you."

"I love you too, now come on, let's go to dinner." Reaching my hand out he gladly accepts, intertwining our hands together.

*A FEW HOURS EARLIER*

"So let me get this right? You want me... the person who has suffered a clinical trial and you stabbing me in the hand. You want me to allow you to inject me with a new serum?" Crossing my arms I stand in disbelief across from Tony, stunned by his casual proposal to have me injected again with his 'plan b' serum.

"Exactly! It'll be fun."

"Don't make me hurt you."

"I'm kidding!" Holding his hands up in defeat Tony walks from around his desk, coming face to face with me. Putting both hands on my shoulders he gives me a reassuring look. "Y/N I promise It'll work..."

"Don't make promises you can't keep Tony..." Looking down I shrug my shoulders, shrugging him off me.

"Look I know things haven't been working out but I honestly feel it'll work this time. We just need another month or 2 to finalise the adjustments."

Sighing heavily I shake my head turning back to face him. " Fine. Okay... I'll do it, but you'll have Steve to convince before you do anything to me."

"Piece of cake." Laughing at his own comment I can see in his eyes worry and knowing Steve will not roll over so easily. I wasn't even sure myself that this was going to be a good idea, but I knew I needed to try and being negative about every idea was not going to help.

"Look I'll give you a month to come up with a real proposal for this, but I am not just gonna let you inject that shit into me again... No way..."

"That's fair, why don't we all meet tomorrow or something to discuss this? How does that sound?"

"Hmmm... Yeah I can do that, I also think it'll help get Steve on side too."

"It's a date." winking he walks past opening his office door for me. Giving a wave I walk out the room, heading down the corridor I get to my own personal work space. Locking the door behind me I lean against it, tilting my head back looking to the ceiling.

Can I really go through this all again? No come on y/n it'll be different this time... You have a family... You have Steve.

Dragging my hands down my face I give myself a shake pulling myself together. For the next hour I focus on mission reports and catching up on personal investigations I still have from my past undercover work. Hearing my phone ping I check to see it's Steve confirming our dinner reservations later.

*The next day*

"Okay so thanks for agreeing to meet us again on such short notice y/n... and Steve thanks also for joining."

"Well if you think I'm gonna just let you use her as a pin cushion again-"

"Calm down Cap, we're not gonna do that."

Sitting in the main meeting room, Steve, Tony, Bruce and I have all been discussing the new serum in which Tony and Bruce think they have adapted enough to work. Steve has been extremely tense the whole time and Tony constantly winding him up is not helping. Reaching under the table I take Steve's hand, giving a reassuring squeeze.

"Look, we will need to conduct multiple tests again but Steve I assure you we can take this step by step and at y/n's pace. I know it's not ideal for her to have so many tests but if it means we get the result we want." Bruce has been the only reassuring voice of this whole meeting. Tony as much as I love him is just being a pain in the ass and we all know it's because he can make Steve bite too easily.

"I agree Bruce. I think maybe if I did a few tests a week it'll give my body a break? We could maybe say 2 full days I'm in the labs with you and the rest I get it for recovery and work?"

Seeing the disapproving look on Steve's face I return the look with my own disapproving look. "Steve, I know you're not happy but how are we supposed to get anywhere if you won't even let them touch me?"

Sighing he crosses his arms over his chest, shaking his head. "Fine... Two days?"

"Yes."

"No more and if there is any sign that it's too much for y/n we pull the plug?"

"Steve, I am here you know." Laughing I roll my eyes, punching his arm lightly.

"Sorry... I'm being controlling-"

"Not controlling, just sassy." Winking I can see his face flush slightly.

"Okay so we all agree... two day a week?" One by one we all nod in agreement.

"Excellent. Okay so y/n we will begin next week?"

"Sounds good to me and I have to say... thank you... all of you. I know this whole situation hasn't been easy for anyone but knowing you won't give up on me... it means everything." All three men smile giving me warm smiles.

"Okay Bruce let's get to my office, we have much to organise." Standing Bruce and Tony leave Steve and I in the meeting room alone. Turning my full body in my chair I face Steve. Placing my hand on his cheek I stroke it gently. "Thank you." Smiling, he places his hand over mine.

"For what sweetheart?"

"Loving me." Smiling, he places his other hand on my cheek, brushing it twice with his thumb.

"Come here." Leaning in he locks his lips with mine.

God I love this man.
