"Ultron"

Jasmine had been getting ready for Stark's party for the last hour. She usually wasn't one to socialize with strangers but she already said yes and she had bought a dress so it had to be used. But amongst that she had been feeling a slight wave of frustration and anger, mostly due to her secret now being revealed to Natasha. Although she knew nothing would be said by her, there was still some stress which then caused the stress to shift onto her day to day life, "Ugh."

The sound of Jasmine slamming her hands against the wall was enough to make Steve hurry as he was walking down the hall to her bedroom, "Woah–" He entered to see her in a distressed look, "What's wrong?"

"It's bad enough that I picked this dress that I don't know if I should pull it down or up." She toyed with the straps while also pulling it down by the hem, "But, I can't reach the stupid zipper."

Steve had an amused look on his face, "Why don't you just ask?" He questioned.

"I don't know." Jasmine sighed, leaning her back against his chest as he stood right behind her.

"I got you sweetheart." He quickly placed a kiss on her forehead before reaching for the zipper of her dress. She thanked him when he was done, "You look beautiful. Just like always." His arms circled around her waist.

She blushed at his words, "You look equally as handsome."

"You ready?" He asked.

"Not really but, I'm hungry so I guess I'll follow." She turned around with a shrug. She slipped on some heels and took Steve's hand that was waiting for her.

When the two emerged down to the floor where the party was being held, they were greeted and introduced to a number of people. They both put their 'show' smiles on and greeted back equally as polite.

By the end of many introductions Jasmine was already ready to just head back to her room but she sucked it up and even dismissed herself from Steve to grab a drink. Unfortunately it took her a while as people started pulling her into talking, she was not a fan of that.

"If I have to hear Rhodey tell that damn story one more time, I'll jump off the building." She groaned as she reached the bar where Natasha was tending to the drinks, "Or push him off of it."

The redhead chuckled at her friend's comment, "Don't think Tony would appreciate it. That's like his work husband."

Jasmine only shrugged, "Give me the strongest thing you got." She told the girl.

"Unfortunately I was told you couldn't have that. But there is beer." She handed the girl an opened bottle.

Jasmine pouted, "I guess enough of these will do the trick." She took a swig of the beverage once, "Thanks Nat."
