AN: I haven't written a story in quite some time, but the ideas are filling my head. I have to write them down. I hope my writing is not too rusty. This takes place in about 1946-1947.

Seele Diamant

Agent Carter, how she adored her title. Agent. Agent. Agent. There was just something about it. It sounded right. She always thought she was destined for something great, and she was. She was a war hero, if she even didn't get the credit from the higher ups, just for being a girl. That's just unfair, but that is how it is. She didn't care all that much. She knew what she did, her friends knew and that is all that really matters.

She lived for the moments that the guys needed her on a case. Depending on the guy, the request was sweeter than sugar. If it came from Sousa, he saw her as an equal, or maybe even put her up on a pedestal. If it came from the other jag-offs in the office, then well, that smile lasted all day.

She liked her life, sure there were lows and highs, but overall it was a great life. Every day started off more or less the same. Peggy woke up, took her shower, dressed, did her hair, and makeup. She left her apartment and went to work, but not today her apartment was in shambles. Her pipe had burst and everything was wet.

'Wonderful' She thought.

She dressed in the driest clothing she could find, a regular blue dress. She dismissed the thought of wearing makeup, then she missed her bus, and decided to walk to the next stop. While on her way she broke her heel.

'This day is shaping up to be dreadful'

When she finally made it to work her hair had gotten twisted around from the wind. She felt unkempt and unladylike.

Luckily Jarvis, who was the best butler in the world (which one would have to be to serve Howard Stark) he always arrived when she did with her morning coffee.

"Good morning Miss. Carter" he took a double take "My you must have had a terrible morning. Don't worry about a thing." He ran off to his car and came back with some clothes and a small bag.

"Here you are, Mr. Stark always keeps some women's clothing on hand" he gave a knowing look "These clothes and shoes should work, and in this bag are some beauty supplies, if needed I am versed in haircare."

Of course he would be "I'll be right back"

Jarvis waited for a while and when Peggy returned he let out a smile. She was beautiful, and any male could see that. He was lucky to know the real her, the smarts behind the beauty.

"Thank you Mr. Jarvis, you really are a lifesaver."

He handed her, her coffee, which was only slightly warm now.

"What happened if you don't mind my asking?"

"The water pipe burst in my flat today, everything is completely drenched"

"Well of course you will be staying with us until this is fixed, I will arrange everything"

She let out her genuine smile "Thank you"

"Let me know if you will be needing anymore of my assistance today, I always look forward to our adventures." He left with a smile

When she entered the office everything was busier than usual. They were talking on the phone, and going through the filing cabinets. Peggy was confused, what were they all doing?
