Even though working at the diner had some perks-free food for you and discounted meals for the Avengers-Steve knew you wanted to quit. And every week, he would encourage you, but you wouldn't take it. The diner had become your hangout place after they had a mission. Shawarma had even been added to the menu after so many requests.


"C'mon, (Y/N)!" he pleads as you clean up the counters. "You know you're not happy here."


"And you guys will be miserable if I do leave. 50% off meals is a steal here in New York."


"I'd rather steal the happy rather than miserable heart of my girlfriend."


"Making you guys happy does make me happy." You kiss his forehead. "Besides, where else would I get my lattes?"


He smiles. Even though the diner had some high beverage prices, it did make the best lattes.


"What if I make you lattes whenever the Avengers come over?" You laugh. "What's so funny?"


"You? Make lattes?"


"I can do it!" Disbelieving, you offer him a mug and a towel.


"Alright then. Prove it."


Rolling up his sleeves and biting his lip, he grabs the cup and heads over to the machines. You sit down and wait patiently as he heats up the milk and makes expresso. Within minutes, you see him adding the steamed milk. Within seconds, he places the cup in front of you.


You gasp when you see the words, "I love you," illuminate on the coffee.


"That's the reason why I want you to be happy," he whispers, kissing your temple.

"So no one can pick up the hammer?"


"No," Bruce confirms. "Apparently, it's sealed by only people who are worthy." You laugh.


"And the great Tony Stark isn't?"


"Shut up!" he says throwing his head back.


"The rest?" Your answer is a series of grumbled no's and groans.


"I did budge it," Steve say, mumbling to himself. Thor brings you close to him in order to whisper into your ear.


"Give it a try." You back up and wrinkle your brow. He smiles even more warmly.


"Are you crazy? Even Steve couldn't fully lift it!"


"Why are you trying to embarrass your girlfriend?" Natasha asks. "That's just rude."


"I'm not. I just want to see." He turns back to you. "For me?"


And when his plead is combined with his blue puppy-dog eyes, it's impossible for you to say no. With a sigh, you rise and roll up your sleeves.


"Honestly Thor," you say as your grip the handle, "I can't believe you would make me-"


Everything and everyone stops. Mjolnir had ascended, and now it roamed according to your control. You hadn't even felt resistance, as if it was a piece of cotton.


"I...I don't understand."


"I would never purposely humiliate you, especially not in front of our friends," Thor says, his smile never erasing from his face. You turn back to him.


"Do you want to know why you are able to wield Mjolnir as swiftly as I do?" Everyone nods. "That's because you are worthy, (Y/N). You are worthy of some many things, and all these things are just fractions of reasons why I love you."
