His Enchantress (Steve x Reader)

Chapter 61

Molly came running to you as soon as you came into the old farmhouse that you always called home. You still do inside your head, because it's still where you belong on a technicality. You've never set down roots before, although the compound was starting to feel like it. You picked up Molly and held her with Tibbs while your father sat you down. He looked at you seriously and placed a hand on your knee.
"Does he treat you well?" he murmured softly.
"Yes, dad. Very well. Better than anyone else ever has" you admitted.
"Good, is he here to make an honest woman out of you?" he asked, and you looked around to make sure no one else could hear him. You nodded and he seemed to approve. "Let's see how the weekend goes," he said decisively. "Did you need anything kiddo?" he asked.

"Do you have any of those salted caramel cookies mom used to make?" you asked after a moment.
"I'll go get you a couple. Your mom made them special for you coming home" he nodded and got up and went to the kitchen. Molly curled up around your shoulders and started purring when he came back with the cookies and a piece of dehydrated chicken for Tibbs. "I assume the rascal still has a taste for these?" he asked.
"Always," you giggled, letting Tibbs go and accepting the cookies. Tibbs climbed up onto your dad's lap while you munched at one of your favorite cookies. Molly didn't even move, she seemed at peace.

"That's the first time since Christmas I've seen that cat of your's rest," your dad chuckled.
"She's a cuddly baby" you cooed at her. She let out a loud purr and her ears twitched, but she seemed at peace for the moment.

"Your brother says they know the family secret," your father said softly. You nodded in the affirmative. "They don't want to put you into the field or some nonsense do they?" he asked and you shook your head and he looked visibly relieved. "Your mother was worried about that."
"She has nothing to worry about. I'm in an office all day with Tony and Bruce, and since the team has a big mission coming up, they are sending me to Malibu for while they are gone" you admitted.
"That's a relief" he sighed.
"They even pay for my healthcare, and are watching the babies closely" you smiled happily. "Loki did some magic to some water for me so I don't feel morning sickness too."

"Isn't he the feller that tried to take over New York city?" he asked in surprise.
"Under mind control, yes. He's better now. He's very kind" you smiled. "Everyone is. They are so welcoming."
"Your mom is making a big old pot roast for supper with all the fixings. I hope you're hungry" your dad said.
"Oh, I can't eat onions" you turned a little green at the thought.
"Dear!" he got up quickly, headed to the kitchen. You reached up and pet Molly who was very happy with her special attention. You could hear your dad telling your mom to not add onions, and you could hear her scrambling.
"There you are" Steve came into the room with Bucky on one side of him and Eric on the other. He slowly smirked and started walking towards you.
"Not so fast partner" Eric grabbed him by the back of the shirt, and Steve had a flicker of annoyance go across his face. "That's my baby sister, and you're thinking of frenching her? Gag me man, chaste kiss, that's all you get for now" Eric gave some sass.
Steve looked like he was trying to decide if he was going to listen, and then Eric grinned in victory as Steve walked towards you and gave you a soft kiss on the lips.
"That's it?" you asked after a moment. "You got me to wear this tight dress, and all I get is a chaste kiss?" you turned your glare to Eric who put his hands up.
"Yeah, I wouldn't have listened either," Bucky admitted. "But he is trying to make a good impression."
"One look in his head and he made enough of an impression on mom and I. We are good. We also know Y/N hasn't gone into his mind nearly enough" Eric said.
"Are you hiding something from me?" you asked Steve.
"Nothing more than usual. Secrets" Steve grinned and he reached up and pet Molly. Tibbs came sauntering over and crawled up onto Steve's lap and curled up into a ball. "Strange, he usually goes to Bucky" he murmured.
"You're his dad now," Bucky reminded him. Steve put his hand on your thigh and squeezed with a smile on his face as though he felt victorious.
"I'm going to make sure ma knows he's getting frisky" Eric said with a gleam in his eye. You used your powers to pin him to the wall and he burst out laughing. "You're getting quicker," he commented.
"I was always quicker, I'm just not in the mood for your shenanigans. Steve can touch any part of me he wants," you glared at your brother. He seemed to think about it for a moment before he nodded.
"I'll let it go for now, Emily is probably on her way over anyways and I've got to get out there and feed the animals" Eric said as you released him.
"I'll come help," you said, finishing your cookies.
"Not in those shoes" he shook his head. You took a moment and went inside his head.
"You left my muckers by the back door" you grinned and stood up.
"I knew you'd look," Eric chuckled.
"We will come" Steve said, squeezing your thigh.
"You better not be thinking about going outside," your mom came around the corner. "You didn't come home to go to work. You can go outside and see them later. For now, get comfortable" your mom grinned.
"Mrs. Y/L/N, thank you so much for having us" Steve said again.
"Just Franny is fine. You can call my husband Luke. We don't need to dance on formalities" she waved him off. "And you're more than welcome here, you both are. My daughter hasn't seemed this happy in years, and I know from a peek in her mind how far you went to make her feel welcome in her new home before you even started dating. She told me on the phone, but I thought she was embellishing it. I was wrong" your mom said.
"Thank you Franny" Steve nodded his head with a small smile.
"Besides with triplets on the way, you'll be seeing a lot of us" your dad came out. "I got the onions out, sunshine," he grinned.
"Thank's dad" you smiled happily.

When Emily arrived you could hear her old truck before she finished getting down the driveway. Bucky looked nervous since the three of you had been sitting and talking to your mom and dad mostly while Eric was outside. You got up and grabbed Bucky's hand, leaving Tibbs and Molly with Steve as you ran to the front door and out onto the porch. You saw Emily park, and double check her makeup. Her long wavy brown hair was down, with her blue eyes sparkling as she got out of the truck in a paisley pink dress on her curvy form that went to her knees, wearing a pair of tan cowboy boots. Bucky look like he had been struck by Thor's lightning, and just stood there with a large smile on his face. Emily smiled at him and started walking towards him slowly.
"You're here" she finally said in a soft voice.
"And you're here" Bucky said with a half smirk on his face.
"You're taller than I thought" she said as she got close.
"You're more beautiful in person," he said in retort. You cleared your throat and looked away.
"Thank you" Emily threw her arms around you and you giggled. "Welcome home," she added quickly.
"I missed you too" you said, and took a step back from her embrace.
"Girl, you're showing a lot. Dang those are going to be big babies" she said. "Can I touch you?" she asked.
"Go ahead" you raised your arms. She pressed her hands to your belly and looked in awe of it.

"I can't wait for it to be me someday" she sighed and flushed as she looked at Bucky.
"I'll leave you two to it" you said pulling away and started to head inside. You turned in time to see Bucky embracing Emily and she got up on her tip toes and kissed him softly on the lips. He seemed to like it because he picked her up off her feet and he deepened the kiss. You hurried inside and closed the door.
"Is that Emily?" your dad asked.
"She'll be in shortly" you grinned and winked at Steve. He grinned back and tapped the seat beside him where Molly was resting. You walked over and picked up Molly before sitting down again. Tibbs was still curled up on his lap and sleeping.
"Mom, did you remember to make Tibbs his own plate?" you asked her.
"I made him a little bit of everything he likes, although it looks like he eats very well now" your mom chuckled.
"The cooks always make sure he has three meals a day, and we always have dog kibble out for him at all times" Steve spoke up. "The whole team lets him eat from their plates too though" he added with a bit of a chuckle. "Bucky is the worst for it" he admitted.
"Well not with this pot roast" your mom proclaimed. "Besides, I made him twice the normal sized plate, he should be busy."
Emily and Bucky came in at that moment, their lips swollen from stolen kisses and holding hands.
"Hi, sorry I'm late Aunt Franny, and Uncle Luke" she said as she came in.
"Nonsense, you're just on time" your dad said. "Steve, this is Emily, she's also an Enchantress" he introduced.
"Pleasure to meet you, we've heard so much about you" Steve grinned and Emily's cheeks flushed as she looked at Bucky and seemed to have the good sense to keep her mouth closed.
