"After all that I'm hungry, wanna get some food?" Steve catches his breath and rests his hands on his hips.
"Why not?" Iris nods "I'll go get cleaned up."
After showering and freshening up, Iris met Steve at the second floor hallway, where he looked down at the first floor. He stares down watching different workers and others come in and out of the building. Iris walks up behind him and stands next to him looking down.
"That's a lot of people." she says resting her hands on the railing.
"Yeah sure is. You sure you're gonna like living here?"
"Oh yeah, it's much better than my apartment." she nods and Steve looks over at her.
Her eyes were so focused down admiring at all the people. She has a slight smile on her lips, curling in the corners. Her hair falls onto her face as she leans forward pushing on the hand rail.
Steve clears his throat, while also clearing his head of all the thoughts. Iris perks up and turns to him. "Ready to go?" he asks.
"Yeah." she smiles and they both turn from the window and head downstairs.

After searching for a place to get food Steve decided to take Iris to a local burger place. They sat down in a booth after ordering, and waited for their food.
"I was surprised to find out you've never been here." Steve says leaning back.
"I haven't gotten out much I guess." Iris shrugs. "But I'm sure this place is great." she smiles.
"It is." Steve nods with a small grin.
Iris sighs then looks up when a waitress walks by and slides a tray onto the table. "Is there anything else I can get for you guys?"
Steve slides the tray to the middle of the table "I don't think so, thank you ma'am."
The waitress nods "You're welcome." she walks away.
Steve grabs the smaller plates from the tray and takes his, then passing Iris hers. He then takes the fry basket off and puts it in the middle of the table.
"Looks great." Iris smiles then looks up at Steve from the food.
Steve smiles back "Go on, try it."
Iris laughs "Okay, captain." she shakes her head
and picks up her burger and takes a bite. Her eyes quickly widen as she rests the burger back down on the plate. "Oh my god."
Steve chuckles "Good?"
"Good? This is the best burger I've had." Iris laughs then taking a sip of her drink.
"Good. I'm glad you like it." Steve says then taking a bite of his.
Iris continues to eat her and take a couple fries between bites. "So.." Iris says taking a sip of her drink "While we're here, might as well get to know each other right? Other than the basic, captain america..frozen in ice." Iris laughs.
Steve chuckles "Yes might as well." he nods.
"Tell me about yourself." Iris says, leans her head on her hand.
"Well, I fought in World War Two...before that they put me in some pretty ridiculous shows.." Steve starts but Iris cuts him off by touching his hand. He quickly looks down at their hands then back up at her eyes.
"Not what you did with all that Captain America stuff. I wanna know about you."
Steve takes a deep breath then nods "I don't know if there's much to say. I feel out of place, old fashioned. Vintage." he laughs to himself "Like I don't belong unless I'm Captain America."
Iris tilts her head and gives a frown."I didn't know you felt that way."
"No one does." he shakes his head "I don't normally talk to people about this stuff. I guess nobody's ever given me a chance."
