Love In Battle:Captain America Love Story

Chapter 2:Steve

I could feel my face heating up. Mara was hovering over me,her face only inches from mine. She quickly got up and helped me up,which I think was the original plan. I saw a slight crimson color under her cheeks. I slightly smiled,but it vanished when I saw Tony standing at the doorway with a smirk. I glared at him,causing Mara to turn and glower at him. I chuckled silently at her cuteness. She was the same age as me,so it could work. I've had a crush on her since we were 16,though I tried to dismiss it with my brotherly feelings about Peggy. Mara always seemed jealous when she saw us together, which kinda made me happy. Tony,Clint, Thor,Bruce,and Nat always tease me and tell me to ask her out. I had a plan. After dinner,I would take her to the roof to star gaze,then ask her. Everyone agreed to the plan,even Tony(which was surprising).

Mara had just set down her fork,finished with her steak. For about 10 minutes, we all talked. Then,I finally spoke up.
"Hey Mar?"
She looked at me."Yeah?"
"Wanna star gaze on the roof?" I asked shyly,though I knew she loved star gazing. She smiled widely.
"Sure." She got up and put her plate in the sink. Then,together we walked to the elevator.
"JARVIS,the roof please." I said. The elevator shifted upwards,and the doors soon opened to the night sky.
"Thanks,J." Mara thanked the system and we walked out. She plopped down awfully close to the edge,to close for my comfort. I pushed her back by the waist,not thinking anything about it. She lightly blushed and so did I.
"Look at them,Steve. Aren't they beautiful?" Mara looked up at the sky with that smiled I loved.
"Yeah." I smiled back."Mar? Do you want to go out sometime." I asked nervously. She turned to me,her blue eyes wide. I looked down.
"I understand if you don't."

She smiled and hugged me. This time it was my time to be surprised.
"I've been waiting for years. Tell me it's not a dream."Mara said into my shirt. I smiled.
"It's not a dream,princess." I whispered and kissed the top of her head. She looked up at me with those blue eyes I love. She kissed my cheek.
"Of course I'll go out with you." She smiled warmly. She got up and walked towards the elevator.
"Saturday at 7?" She asked once she reached the elevator. I quickly nodded and she smiled.
"Goodnight,Steve." She said as the elevator door closed.
"Goodnight,princess." I whispered.
