Overlooked. That's what she was. Her older brother was always the smart one and she was the dumb one. Then he got the serum and she was even more in his shadow. Literally and figuratively. Oh you don't know who I'm talking about? Figures. Vivian rog...
I feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn around to see Steve, I quickly wipe the tear from my eye and clear my throat.
"Cap." I say.
"I miss him too, vivi."
I nod and sniffle. We go to leave and Steve sees a kid staring at us. I wave at the kid with a smile and Steve makes a 'sh' motion with his finger.
We go to another section of the museum. I see all the suits of the howling commandos and smile. "Those guys were a lot of fun." I say with a small laugh. Steve laughs too, "yeah they were. And in the words of Bucky, 'they're all idiots.'" Steve says with a grin. I laugh and nod.
I look over and spot a panel dedicated to Bucky. I walk over to it and smile.
"I miss you."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After my little visit to the past, I start walking back to mine and Steve's apartment. He wanted to go see Peggy. I don't really want to be alone though, then I look down at my phone and smile.
I go to contacts and make a call.
"Hey Lily, can I come over? I know it's kinda short notice but Steve is visiting..an old girlfriend, and I really don't want to be alone."
I can almost hear her grin over the phone, "well duh! Come on! I'll make hot cocoa and we can watch brigerton" she beams excitedly.
"Cool! I'll be right there." I say then hand up.
One thing I should probably mention about Lily, she has no idea who I am. My brother, who she knows about, she has never met. Because he's always 'busy with work'. I guess that's one of the perks of being overlooked.
I get to her apartment and walk in, her apartment is always so clean. And she has the cutest decorations. They fit her personality perfectly.

I plop myself down on her couch while she pops some popcorn.
"Hey, vi, is something wrong?" She asks, printing over a large bowl of popcorn.
"Hm? No, no. Nothings wrong. I'm just hungry. Why, is something wrong with you?" I say, grabbing some popcorn and flipping it into my mouth.
"Vi, you're deflecting."
"No im not!"
"Yes. You are. What's going on?"
"Nothing!" I go to reach for some more popcorn but she pulls it away from me, "hey!"
"No more popcorn until you tell me what's wrong."
"I don't- there's nothing-" I sigh when I see her stern look. Usually she's so bubbly. Why now does she have to be serious. "Ugh, fine. I'll tell you." I mutter and she sets the popcorn down on the coffee table.
"So do you remember how I said that I had a friend a while ago who died?" I ask, putting a pink fluffy blanket over my lap.
