I yawned as Freya and I played on the floor of the compound. Rocket was nearby, and Freya was practically begging to play with the Raccoon.

She had already pulled his fur, which is why he was keeping his distance. It's been 2 weeks since the blip. Since everyone we have loved disappeared.

2 weeks. It feels like a lifetime.

It was still hard to believe they were gone. Wanda, Nina, T'Challa, Sam, Groot. Erik. Jane. And these were those we knew of. Darcy is still hanging around the compound, I refused to let her go back to the emptiness of her apartment.

Clint was another story. He didn't want to come back with us to the compound and it's not like we could make him. I still call every single day, because I know the feeling of missing your children and love all too well. Granted I still spoke to Steve during my time away. And well…

Sometime in the last days we met Carol Danvers. An old friend of Furys. The apparent reason he invented the Avengers initiative. Tony was alive, Pepper has been receiving video messages from the Iron Man helmet thingy.

He was stuck on a planet called Titan, where Thanos was from and where they fought shortly before he came to Earth.

We had to ask Carol to go and get him. Space was more her terrain, and Thor or I would have gone with Rocket but the jump ship was stuck on Nidavellir.

"Oh that's terrible." I cooed as I picked Freya up and put her on my lap, taking her arms to point at Steve who entered the room. His beard is completely gone. He shaved, his face looked much smoother now.

And his blond hair was more noticeable. Obviously he looked rather dashing, but I would miss the beard greatly considering I didn’t have much time with it. "Look Freya, Daddy shaved his beard!"

Freya actually stares at Steve, her small eyebrows deepening along with her lips. I laughed when I saw the look on her face. "Does she not recognize you?"

"I actually think she doesn't." Steve said, partly shocked as he bent down. Freya coos, reaching out to touch his face. But she kept the same look on her face.

"Clearly our daughter has taste. Which she obviously inherited from me." I state matter of factly as Steve picked her up and she carefully touched the sides of his face and then her own. All confusedly. We both laughed.

God I missed this. Them. Ever since I returned from my extended leave, I haven't left Freya's side. I missed 5 extremely long months. I missed Steve. I am never taking my family for granted again.

All of a sudden the ground shakes, first slowly and then severely. Steve scooped our daughter up in his arms automatically. Holding her close partly from fear. Steve and I exchanged glances.
