Steve's POV
I wake up by someone grabbing my leg. I look down to see Y/N holding my foot, like a teddy bear. She looks really cute when she's asleep, I thought to myself.

She slowly opens her eyes and realize that she's holding my foot and release her grip, and slightly blushing. I chuckle at her reaction.

"Good morning, did you sleep well?" I ask with a smile. She looks up at me and smiles. "Second time, yes. Uhm. Thanks for staying, I just kinda needed..." "You don't need to explain, I we all get bad dreams." I cut her off, trying to reassure her with a smile. She just nods.

"So, I wondered if you wanted to train today?" She just look at me in confusion. "So we can see your skill set." "I-I... When I normally train, I have to kill my opponents, or... Just paralyze them. You're not gonna make me do that right?" She asked me with eyes filled with fright and sadness.

"No, no. Here we fight till the opponents is on the ground." "Oh, that sounds nice, but what if... What if I don't manage to stop? What if I kill someone? I-I hurt you really bad last night during my nightmare." "It's ok, I'll have Tony stand by with his suit, if that makes you feel safer." I answer her and give her a soft smile. She returns my smile.

She eats breakfast, change to workout clothes and then I follow her to the gym.
