STEVE ROGERS AND ARIZONA ALLEN SIZZLE IN STAR'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO

DON'T BLAME US - WHY WE'RE GOING CRAZY FOR ARIZONA ALLEN'S NEW VIDEO

Arizona checked her Instagram that hadn't stopped blowing up over the last few days since posting stills of the video to tease fans as well as a few behind the scenes pictures that she had secretly taken. The thing that had surprised her the most was that Steve had started following her, and in return she'd hit the button right back.
Wanda had been right in terms of him helping with her rep. There had been more positive comments outweighing the negative ones that were promptly deleted. Still, no one would bet on what they were really doing behind closed doors.

Lilstar456 – Omg are you and Steve Rogers dating?!
- Hollie183575 in reply to @Lilstar456 – They've just started following one another 😮

Amypierce_x - @ArizonaAllen @SteveRogers, you guys make the HOTTEST couple ever

PhillipaCole990 – Why can't this be a real film 😭 I'd pay to watch!

Heather_Smith - @Emmabax –  I think our man is taken 😔

"I smell another number one". Phil stated as he watched Arizona preparing for an interview. It was promo week, which meant appearances here, there and everywhere.

"You say that every time" She rolled her eyes, checking her phone again as the hair and makeup artist worked on her. Steve was away filming and so she wouldn't be seeing him for quite a few weeks, however that didn't matter. They'd fucked enough the night before he'd left to keep them satisfied for that amount of time.

And the best thing about waking up the next morning? There was no regrets, no feelings of dread or love. It was a simple situation of last night being a normal occurrence, and that they'd see one another soon.

"Are you even listening to a word I'm saying?" Phil now asked with a look that told her that he already knew the answer.

"Sorry...what?" She smiled weakly.

"I'm saying that with the positive reception to the video, we're bringing the album release forward".

Arizona blinked and nodded. "I don't think we need..."

"While we're on a high, you're dropping it this Friday, no one knows. Once we get a reaction to that then we can go ahead and decide on when to release tour tickets". He threw a glance to her. "Told you getting Rogers was a good idea".

Yeah. He just didn't know how much of Rogers she was getting. That would stay purely between her and Steve unless they had to get their teams involved. But for a meaningless fuck every so often? It wasn't worth it. It was a bit of fun, and no one had to know.

Turning back to her phone, Arizona pulled up her messages and sent him a text. You seen the reaction to the video? Or even the video itself? A

Rogers: Yeah, Hill showed me earlier on my break - looks good. Of course he was going to be neutral with her. This was Steve Rogers after all.

Ok, cool - just thought I'd ask. Hope shooting is going well. A

Rogers: Going ok, just breaking for lunch and then back into the heat. Cooking alive in this fucking suit

Lol, poor you - I have an interview, haven't stopped this week and now Phil says they're dropping the album Friday. Not sure how to feel when shit's been negative the last couple of months. Just seems like it's not gonna last.

Rogers: Just enjoy it Allen, if it makes you feel better then we can have a celebratory fuck when I'm back.

You have such a way with words 🙄 , don't creep on my insta too much

Rogers: Wouldn't dream of it, just playing my part. People can think what they like about it.

Nice. Very Steve. Arizona had come to not be surprised by things that he did or said, and that had only happened in a short space of time. Instead she chose to end the conversation there and get back to the task at hand. Getting through this interview, and no doubt there would be questions raised about her and Steve like there usually was.

"Who you texting?" Bucky asked, seeing his friend sat on his phone. "Sharon?"

To be honest he had done before getting Arizona's message. She was in going to be visiting him in a few days on set, so they were planning what to do once shooting had stopped for the day, when he had to be on a night shoot etc.

"Yep..." Was all he said, eyes still on the screen.

"She coming to see you?"

"Thursday" He confirmed, "Just sorting everything".

Bucky nodded. "Things are getting serious again eh?"

Steve now looked up and frowned. "They never were in the first place. She likes to think it is though. I just...I like her, but the thought of settling down with her, which is what I know she wants? I'm still not sure".

Bucky snorted. "As much as I like Arizona Allen, you're better off with Sharon than someone like her".

"Now who's giving the slander" Steve eyed his friend, "You gave me a hard time at Tony's party for that".

"I don't mean it like that, what I mean is that Arizona is always in the press and Sharon? She's kind of not. I know she's in Strike but she's not Hollywood level or recognised internationally like Arizona is. Not that I'm saying you'd date her anyway, I'm surprised you lasted for the video shoot".

He shrugged at this. "Went in, did my job, went home. It's acting".

"Well you did a fucking good job of convincing everyone that there's something there. I watched that video and damn...even I was sure of it".

"That's why I'm in this business". Steve chuckled and finished the rest of his food. "People are talking just coz we've followed one another on Instagram, but really we didn't have a choice. PR and all that. She gets her positive gossip and it keeps people talking about me and the new cap film".

He would bet any money that Hill had already plotted with Arizona's publicist to have her appear at the premiere. It was only a couple of months away after all and with things as they stood, he was sure that was what they had up their sleeves. No way was he walking with her though. They could simply meet up in a hotel room after, slam it out and then continue on as they were.

It was an arrangement where everyone would win.
