Why Won't You Stay

The Office Guys

It was the next morning and they just started waking up. Steve yawned and stretched his arms.

"Well last night was amazing." He said.

"Yes I think I'll be tired for the rest of the week."

"You're disgusting." He joked.

"Yes I think I'm rather dirty." She responded back. "Care to take a shower?"

"Sure just let me wake up a little bit first." Peggy gave him a signature kiss. "Ok I'm up."

Steve had the day off but Peggy had to go into work and see where her hidden office was. It was located in an antique shop in the back. Peggy would only be there for a few hours to get her back into the groove. She was given an office because she was given a promotion and would have her own agents to take care of. Her new title? Director Carter.

The position suited her well. She's the kind people follow but her agents were all men. Pigs. They treated women with disrespect like they were there only to carry on their children.

When Peggy got home she saw that the room was clean, their boxes weren't there, there were bed sheets on the mattress, and Steve standing there looking pleased with himself.

"Stressful day?"

"Just a tad. I see you've been busy."

"No I just tidied up a few things. I drew you a bath."

"Bubbles?"

"Of course."

"Oh you wonderful man you." She ran to embrace him. "I love you."

"I love you too. Now go in the bathroom I'll be there in a minute."

Peggy went into the bathroom and got into the bath. Steve came in with champagne and handed her a glass. He also brought her favorite English chocolates.

"So tell my about your day. How was work?"

"Well they took me into a hidden SSR office and they introduced me to everyone. They gave me a promotion to Director Carter." She took a sip.

"Ooh. Director Carter. Sounds so...." He trailed off to search for the word. "Powerful." He took a sip.

"Yes especially now that I outrank you." He spit up the champagne. "Surprised or angry?"

"Neither. I'm so proud of you." He looked dumb-founded and happy. His usual signs of innocence.

"Well I'm disappointed. I was expected to finally see Captain America angry."

"I was only angry once in front of you."

"When was that?"

"When you shot at me because you thought I was cheating on you."

"I don't think you were angry then. I don't think you even know the meaning of the word."

"What about when you got shot in the shoulder the first time?"

"What did you do then? I blacked out."

"I ran over to the shooter and wailed on him."

"Hm. I don't think that's anger but more an act of revenge." They nodded and took a sip. "When you smashed Hitler's head in?"

"On stage or in person?" He laughed.

"In person."

"I would say that's anger. I thought he killed you."
