Chapter 9




* KATE'S POV *

Me and Steve ended up walking home slowly under the drizzling rain, laughing our guts out. There was nothing that was actually funny, but we ended up giggling anyway. I don't know, I think I was just shocked about us. Everything was starting now -not that I was complaining.

Me and Bucky explained everything to Steve yesterday night. Steve was shocked that his best bud was behind this whole plan but nevertheless he was happy that it all ended perfectly. I was happy that I got to express how I felt to him.

== A WEEK LATER ==

It's been a week since the day that Steve confessed to me. We're having our second date tonight. I don't have any idea where we're going tonight cause Steve won't tell me. he says it's a surprise. Oh Steve.

I've also found a job recently. I'm officially a journalist now for a for small newspaper company. The pays not so great, but at least it can get me through my monthly needs. So I guess I'm oak with that. Plus, I wasn't counting on having this as a long-term job at all. Me and Steve have been trying to get into the army all this time. it's not really working out for us at all actually, we've even faked out some of our information each time we tried. Bucky on the other hand had already got a place in the 107th. After all the countless of tries, I've slowly given up but Steve's not done with it yet. He believes that he has no right to do anything less than those guys out there fighting the war for us. He's has such a genuine heart.

"My shifts finally done!" I shout in relief while throwing my arms up in the air. Jenny, a new friend of mine smiles and shakes her head slowly.

"What's the matter? you're going out?" she asks me.

"Yea I am actually. I'm on a date" I said as I scoot out of my seat and start stuffing my stuff into my messenger bag.

"Oh! is Steve picking you up from work?" she excited ask.

I chuckle at her enthusiasm. "no, he's picking me up from our apartment after work"

"Where's he taking you? any ideas?"

"I don't know. he won't tell me. he says it's a surprise"

"Ooh.. surprises. I like it. Steve's a really good guy. you're so lucky, Kate!"

I giggle again. "I know. he's just.. just so special. you're lucky too! you have a great guy at home"

"I know he is. thanks Kate"

I finished packing my stuff and slung my messenger bag on my left shoulder and adjust my hair.

"Ok, I think I'm ready. I'm going now. bye!"

"Bye! have fun!"

"I will!" I shout back as I made my way to the elevators.

The elevator doors open, leading to the streets of Brooklyn. I made my way down the few steps of the building and walked along the sidewalks until I heard someone call my name. I turned around and see Steve ruining towards me across the streets.

He finally reached over to me and let out loud pants. I smiled at him.

"What're you doing here, Steve? I thought you didn't wanna skip work early?"

He smiled back at me. "I know. But it's worth it for you"

I blush. gosh I love this man!

He brings his hand out from behind his back and reveals a bouquet of flowers. he hands them over to me and my smile widens.

"Their so pretty! thank you!" I peek his lips lightly and pull away.

I could see that he was blushing but tried to hide my face in the flowers. he grabs my hand and we start walking on the sidewalk again. As Steve was taking in the surroundings I take the time to examine the flowers he'd given me. They were red roses. my favorite! They were perfectly stashed together into a bouquet held by lovely plastic and cloth.

My smile widens and I dug my nose into the flowers and sniff them. They smelled heavenly.

"Where're we going?" I ask Steve while gripping onto the flowers against my chest.

"It's still a surprise, Kate. You gotta wait a little longer"

I snicker at that. I hate waiting. especially for surprises. But I guess I can wait a little while longer for him.

I follow and follow him in the same paces. I wait and wait until I can't wait anymore.

"Are we there yet? I can't wait much longer" I moan.

He stops and turns to me.
"We're here"

I look up. We're at the beach?

"Common, I've set up something for us here"

I follow him and we came to a part of the beach where a huge blanket was set. around the blanket was a set of lit up candles. There was a picnic basket and some plates placed neatly at the side.

I gasp and place my hands to cover my mouth. He chuckles at my reaction.

"Common. The foods getting cold" he takes my hand and guides me over to the prepared place.

The area that he prepared the blanket was just at the right spot. It was at the centre of the beach and about this time there was a sunset.

We sat in the middle of the blanket and Steve brought out some sandwiches from the basket and set in on the plates for us.

I took a bite out of the sandwich and started to chew on it slowly. I finished chewing it and swallowed it down my throat. I stared at the sandwich.

Steve must've noticed me staring at it for a while cause he said "is something wrong? is it that terrible? I'm so sorry. put that down. I-"

I turned up from staring at the sandwich and said "where did you get this?" in full excitement.

"I-I made it. Is it bad?" He looks up at me with those sad and disappointed eyes.

I giggle at him. "no! are you serious? this is the best sandwich I've ever tasted! it's so good!" I bit into the sandwich again.

He chuckles. "really?"

"I'm serious! it's really good. try some" I popped the sandwich near him. he leans in hesitantly.

"It's ok" I assured him.

He smiles and takes a bite out of the sandwich. "it is kinda good"

I laugh at him and he laughs along.

After we were done we stared at the beautiful evening sunset together. my head on his shoulders and his head leaning on top of mine. We had the best seats to watch the sunset.
