CHAPTER 07 ˎˊ˗
IMGONNAGETYOUBACK━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ೃ⁀➷ YOUR LATE *ੈ✩‧₊˚PHILIPS HAD DECLARED that Steve was killed in action as he still had not made his awaited appearance. Days later.
A disappointed fog passed through the camp as they had all wished to see Steve walk through the entrance of camp. And the missing army trailing behind him.
But Marie knew chances were slim, and she wanted to believe but she couldn't find a reason too.
And the three believed that he never would show. Marie knew Peggy had some sort of faith in her for Steve, and Marie wanted to. But the war in all honesty had stripped away her last existing ounce of humanity and hope.
In actuality she started to feel the war was depriving her from any sort of thrill or enjoyment. She woke up on a uncomfortable sleeping bag, worked on Howards ideas. Following behind his shadow, even when she had her own ideas.
Marie would have been ecstatic being tasked to showcase those ideas, but she knew her ideas never mattered. More notably after working in a male dominated field.
Pitching them to Philips and he shrugged her off. Bucky was gone, now Steve was too. Howard was an ass. And she even partly missed her parents. Not even partly, she missed them majorly. Even if she would never openly admit it.
She was delivering a lab result to one of the lieutenants as she saw soldiers running towards the front of the camp. She quickly turned her direction and began following them as she pushed to the front of the crowd.
Her eyes landed on her older brother's face. Trailing behind Steve, he looked rough. Well all the soldiers did really. But she was relieved to see the two familiar faces, along with the many other men walking into the camp.
Marie stood next to Peggy as she turned to the woman who had a smug look on her face. Philips walked up to Steve as he brought his hand up to his forehead. Saluting the man despite his doubts. Marie and Bucky looked to each other as smiled softly at his little sister who looked relieved to see him.
Philips turned around to Peggy and Marie as they watched him. "Faith huh?" He asked and walked away. "Hey! Let's hear it for Captain America!" Bucky called out as the men all cheered and Marie had a soft smile on her face that reflected satisfaction.
Marie walked up to Bucky as he looked down to her. "Dont ever do something like that again" Marie scolded as Bucky chuckled. "I don't plan on it" he replied as he pulled her into a hug as his hand went the ruffle the top of her hair.
She sent him a glare as he laughed. "Glad to see you held up" Bucky teased as she scoffed and hit his shoulder playful. "Oh please im surprised you held up" Marie pointed out his disheveled appearance. He had a small frown as she laughed.
"Im glad your safe" Marie smiled softly as Bucky squeezed her shoulder. "I can say the same" he replied and pulled his sister in for a hug.
STEVES HERIOC ACTIONS that rescued the 107th from the possible impending doom they faced due to hydra. Called for cheerful time at one of the local pubs. And of course dancing. Marie walked in with Peggy as the agents eyes landed on Steve.
As they walked into the lively bar, men singing war songs with a beer in hand. They all seemed to grow quiet as they caught sight of the women walking through the door.
Peggy motioned for them to go over towards Steve and Bucky. Marie gave her a knowing look as Peggy shook her head. "Peg dont deny your crush on Steve. I see it, everyone does. Even Philips does." Marie laughed a little as Peggy looked to her friend. Shocked she would ever bring up such ideas.
"I have no feelings towards Steve" Peggy shut down the idea as Marie let out a sigh. "Alright" Marie decided to pester no more. Peggys infamous red lips parted; which Marie could only assume it was about Howard.
Marie's hand raised stopping her from uttering a word. Marie made a "Ah ah" sound as Peggy shook her head with a small smile as they made their way towards the two men.
"Captain" Peggy greeted as Bucky and Steve stared at Peggy. "Agent Carter" he acknowledged as Marie stood their awkwardly. Shifting her weight from each foot and tried to find something fascinating in the walls. "Ma'am" Bucky nodded towards her.
"Howard has some equipment for you try" Peggy informed as Bucky glanced to his awkward younger sister. "Tomorrow morning" Marie added as Steve nodded his head a bit.
"Sounds good" Steve replied as Buckys eyes were on Steves face. "I see your top squad is prepping for duty" Peggy deadpanned as Bucky glanced behind him to see the table of men.
"You dont like music?" Bucky asked as he his eyes landed on peggy. "I do actually. I might even when this is all over, go dancing" she explained to the two men as Marie waited impatiently for Peggy to quit her flirting with Steve.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Bucky asked with a smirk as Marie sent a glare towards her older brother. He looked into his sisters glaring eyes as he held his hands up in an apologetic way.
"The right partner" Peggy added as she looked into Steves comforting blue irises. "0800 Captain" Peggy spoke as she and marie turned on their heels and left. "Yes, ma'am. Ill be there" Steve called out.
"And you still deny your very much existing feelings. For Steve" Marie turned her head towards Peggy as she had a smile on her face. "Oh be quiet" Peggy hushed as the two shared a smile and a small laugh.
"And you still believe you dont fancy Howard" Peggy's British accent pierced through Maries ears. "Me and Howard do not like each other. We merely tolerate each other" Marie explained to Peggy as Peggys face told her all she needed to know.
She swallowed thickly as she thoughts about Howard ran through her mind. Maybe somewhere through these deep roots branching off to hatred and loathing towards Howard.
It was blooming a feeling of infatuation for him, but maybe this time Marie wouldn't be mad. It was happening so why stop it?
