A Love That Lasts Forever | Steve Rogers x OC (1)

'And that's everything that happend.' Kiara says as Fitz and Jemma take care of her wounds while she explained everything to the Avengers and the rest of Coulson's team.

'And this is the reason why you took off in the middle of the night, kid?' Tony says.

'Yes.' Kiara says, avoiding everyone's stare. 'Look, I wanted to tell you guys, but we're talking about a man here who took a woman apart to turn his own clock back.' Kiara finally looks at Tony. 'I didn't know what he would do to you guys.'

Tony can see how Kiara struggels, so he says. 'Can you guys give me a moment alone with her?'

Everyone nods and walks out just like Tony asked them. When he turns back to Kiara again he sees that her face is soaked in tears. He gives a sad look and walks to her. He wipes away her tears and pulls her into a hug. After a few seconds he pulls away and cups her face with his hands.

'Hey.' He whispers with a smile. 'I'm not mad at you, Tremors.'

'You're. . .not?'

'No.' He chuckles out. 'I was just worried sick for you.' He says with a shaky voice.

'I'm so, so sorry, Tony. I never meant to worry anyone. I was just scared for the first time in a very long time.'

'Just please, come to me next time, okay?' He whispers.

Kiara nods and Tony pulls her into a hug again and he kisses her forehead.

'What's that?' Kiara asks as Natasha puts down a white box on Kiara's bed.

'A gift from your boyfriend.' Natasha says as her face lights up with a smile. 'Well open it.'

Kiara heads over and grabs the bag, seeing that there's a small card sitting on top. She grabs it and immediately regocnizes Steve's handwriting.

Hey, beautiful,
Put this on and meet me
on the rooftop at 9pm.
I love you.
Steve

Kiara looks over at Natasha as she watches her with anticipation. Kiara lifts the tissue paper and reaches in. She grabs onto the fabric she feels and pulls it out, unfolding it and quickly seeing that it's a dress. She lays it out on the bed so she can get a better look.

It's a red colored dress, the skirt is wide and flowing. The straps tie up around the neck and it has a v-line.

'Steve got this for me?'

'Well, technically I went shopping for it, but he gave me the idea of what he wanted and eventually picked this one out."

'Why does he want to meet me at the rooftop?' Kiara asks, still confused about this whole situation.

'Well, I guess you're going to have to put the dress on and find out.' Natasha says sarcastically. 'You've only got an hour, we need to get you ready.'

'Ready for what? Why won't you tell me what Steve's up to?'

'Would you just stop asking questions and just let me do your hair and makeup, please.' Natasha says frustrated.

Kiara gives in and sits down on the chair, deciding it is better not to argue with Natasha any further.

'You look amazing.' Natasha says after an hour as she looks at Kiara.
