CHAPTER SEVEN:
UPGRADED SHIELD
THE OCCASIONAL CHATTERS could be heard all throughout the base full of soldiers and other workers. The next day had gone by since Captain America had recruited his team to take down Hydra and ended up witnessing another performance from the woman he had found himself pining over for the past couple months now.At the moment, in the usual uniform he had started wearing after he had saved hundreds of soldiers from the Hydra base, Steve found himself venturing in the direction of a woman who had he seen worked for Colonel Phillips. The blonde had her back facing him as she read the words on the newspaper she was holding.
"Excuse me. I'm looking for Mr. Stark." Steve speaks up when he reached her.
"He's in with Colonel Phillips." The woman tells him without looking up from the paper.
The super soldier only gives her a silent nod as he glances around, wondering what he should do. Sensing he was still here, the woman looks up at him before back down at the paper. However, she quickly looked back up when she noticed who it was speaking to her and a smirk made it's way to her red lips.
"Of course, you're welcome to wait." The woman adds, making her voice seductive.
Giving her a small, thankful smile, Steve moved his hand as he gestured to the desk to his right, showing he'd just wait right there. He moved a couple feet before leaning against the desk, glancing around while feeling her eyes still on him.
"I read about what you did." The woman comments as she holds up the front of the paper.
"Oh, the... Yeah." Steve mumbles, nodding in realization. "Well, that's, you know. Just doing what needed to be done."
"Sounded like more than that. You saved nearly four hundred men." The woman reminds.
Neither of the two say anything as they seem to look at one another. Steve only shrugged with a little smile, clearly wanting to be friendly. Within the silence, he noticed the woman looking him up and down with a smirk on her face and he wasn't sure how to feel. He wasn't used to women's attention before.
"Really, it's not a big deal." Steve states.
The woman stands up, slowly moving towards him. "Tell that to their wives."
Steve crosses his arms, uncomfortable. "Uh, I don't think they were all married."
"You're a hero." The woman points out, stopping right in front of him.
