'Rogers, you have a visitor...' Steve frowns at the guards words, all the people he had close bonds with are gone, who would visit him in prison?

Steve begrudgingly gets up from his bed and walks with the guard towards the meetin area. His mind works overtime trying to think of someone who would visit him, especially after all the dirt was dug up on him during the trial, even his cellmate wants nothing to do with him.

He fucked up and he knows that, he will happily pay for that mistake, but the murder of his friends? That was all you.

'Sit here..' the guard pushes him into the chair. 'Remember the rules...'

'Yeah yeah...' he huffs.

The door opens revealing you. His heart drops to his stomach, why would you of all people come here to see him? Are you trying to frame even more on him? Is this some kind of sick plan?

'This isn't some sneaky plan or anything...' oh.

'Then what the fuck are you doing here?'

'Relax Steve... geez... thought you'd be happy to see me...'

His face goes bored. 'Really?'

A small smile plays on your lips. 'No.. but seeing as your friends are dead, I am the only one still looking out for you, believe it or not...'

'Hmm, are you now?' He leans back, arms crossing over one another.

'You think I wanted this? I genuinely liked you Steve, believe it or not... but what you and your friends did? Keeping it a secret for years? Justice had to be brought, so thank you for that Steve...you did wonderful..'

'Fuck you... you think this is some sort of game?'

'You all seemed to think it was... funny how they seemed to know I had a crush on you and you didn't.. because that's how they drew me to that alley..'

His eyes go big at the revelation, he didn't know they used that excuse to get you there, they never told him that.

'Steve wants to talk to you, believe it or not, he's in that alley over there...' you mimic Thors voice.

'I didn't know that...'

'Of course you didn't...there's a lot they probably haven't told you... and I haven't even shared all of it... it's a lot worse than you probably know... even with you there.. the aftermath was far... worse...'

He swallows down the lump in his throat as he sees your eyes fill with tears, which you blink away rapidly.

He should feel bad for his friends, but in this moment, watching you struggle with it even after years passed, he can't help but feel this anger within him. It's directed at his friends, we're they even his friends after all?

'I know what happened was wrong... I'm not crazy... but this is the only way...they can't hurt me anymore and you... neither can you...'

'I wouldn't have-'

'I can't take that risk... Not again.. so sorry... you're just collateral.. I wish it could've been different...' you gather your things and stand up.

'Now I will be the one who watches from a distance, knowing I can make a difference, but I won't... just like you did...'
