Falling in love ~ Steve Rogers

Chapter 2

One week later.....

"Prince Steven?" You asked as you moved your hand in front of his face. 

"Uh.. sorry. I just zoned out." Steve said, shaking his head. He hadn't zoned out. Steve was busy staring at the beauty in front of him. But he couldn't say that to you. Not yet. "What were you saying?"

"I asked if you want to finalize these flowers?" You asked, pen ready to note down anything the Prince said. 

"Uh, I don't know. I'm not an expert in flowers. What do you think?" Steve asked. 

You were confused for a second at his question, "Um, I-I mean..." 

"It's fine, Y/N. I want to know which ones you like. I can go with it." Steve said. 

"But Prince Steven-" 

"Steve, please." Steve interrupted. 

"Okay, Steve." You said. 

"Now. Tell me what you like." Steve said. 

"These." You pointed at the decoration that involved violet and white lilies. 

"That's beautiful, Y/N. You like lilies?" Steve asked. 

"Thanks, Prin- I mean Steve." You said. 

"It's alright, Y/N." Steve smiled. "Are the invites ready?" 

"Yeah. They are ready to be printed whenever you want." You said. 

"Sure. You have the guest list right?" Steve asked. 

"Yes." You nodded. 

Steve sighed and looked at his watch, "Okay. I'll let you know if there are any changes. But I have to go now." 

"Sure." You said. 

"Can I ask you something?" Steve said. 

"Yes." 

"Will you uh... be my date to the ball?" Steve asked. 

"W-What?" Now you were in complete shock. 

"Will you be my date to the ball?" Steve repeated. 

"I-uh...I...I" You stuttered. 

"It's fine, Y/N. I don't expect you to answer right away." Steve sighed and looked around to see if you two were alone and stepped closer. "I really like you, Y/N. I've fallen head over heels for you since the moment I saw you." 

You couldn't believe what you were hearing. It was like a fairytale. The Prince was telling you that he liked you and was asking you to be his date. You hadn't felt anything for him but who could say no to such a handsome and kind man? 

"Can I think about it?" You asked. 

"Sure, Y/N. Take all the time you need." Steve said. "I will take my leave now." 

"Yes. I-I will contact you soon." You said. 

"Alright." Steve shook your hand and then kissed it gently. "Will see you soon, Ms. Y/L/N." He said and gave you a charming smile. 

"Y-Yeah." You said. 

"Goodbye, Y/N." Steve finally said and walked out of the ballroom with James, who was waiting outside.

"Did you ask her?" Bucky said as he sat in the driver's seat. 

"I did. Let's hope she says yes. I really like her, Buck." Steve said, leaning his head against the headrest. 

"Don't worry, pal. She will say yes. Who the hell can say no to you?" Bucky said. 

"No, Buck. She ain't like the other girls. She is something else. It feels like I'm in heaven when I'm around her. The way she talks, the way she smiles and laughs-" 

"Okay, okay. I understand." Bucky chuckled. "You're in love."

Steve smiled happily, "Yeah, I am. I am in love with Y/N."
