I've been waiting for what feels like forever for Steve to come back.

"Sky! Colonel Phillips would like to speak with you." Peggy told me.

"Okay thanks Peggy." Great. Just what I need right now. To get yelled at for helping Steve.

"You wanted to see me sir." I said walking into the Colonels tent.

"Ah yes. Sargent Tomlinson. Come in. I got word that you helped Mr. Rogers to go into enemy territory and rescue some of our troops after I told him not to. Is that true?"

"Yes sir."

"Now why would you do that. You where suppose to train fellow soldiers who are getting ready to go into battle."

"I believe that he can do it sir. That Steve can bring our soldiers who are being held captive back home."

"I don't care what you believe. This is war. Believing that some kid can save all those soldiers captive. It's not gonna happen."

"But sir-"

"You like him don't you?"

"Sorry what?"

"You like Rogers don't you?"

"Sir I-"

"Skylar just answer the question."

I looked down. "Yes." I whisper.

As I was walking back to my tent Peggy stops me.

"Skylar. Sorry to bother you but can you take these papers to Colonel Phillips please?"

"Of course." I replied accepting the papers.

"Thank you so much. I would do it but I have to go check on some soldiers."

"You're welcome." I said while changing ways and going the other direction.

As I walked into the tent where Colonel Phillips was I herad word that I never wanted to hear in my life.

"Senator Grant I regret to inform you to report that Captain Steve Rogers went missing behind enemy lines. On the 3rd. As a result I must declare Captain Rogers killed in action."

"Colonel Phillips. Here are that papers agent Carter wanted to give to you." I said looking down.

"You heard didn't you."

"It's all my fault." I said as I began to cry.

"Everyone out! Sky it's not your fault."

"Yes it is! I'm the one who took him there. I helped him. If it wasn't for me he'd still be alive."

"Skylar listen to me." I looked up. "This is not at all your fault. Rogers would have went with or without your help."

"But-"

"Skylar listen I am upset at you for what you did but I look to you as my daughter. We've been though a lot together but I know when you start to have feelings for someone before you even do. I want to make it clear that it wasn't your fault. He wouldn't have listen to you even if you told him no but I want to say I'm here for you and if you need-" Phillips was caught off by some one yelling from outside "what the hell is going on out there?"

We both ran outside to see everyone around the gate. I look to see a group of men coming towards us. It was Steve!

"Open the gate!" I yelled. I looked back to see Phillips walking straight up to Steve.

"Some of these men need medical attention. I like to surrender myself to disciplinary action."

"That won't be necessary."

"Yes sir." Phillips turned and looked at me and just smirked.

"Your late." I told him. He pulled out the transporter I gave him.

"Couldn't call my ride."

"Hey! Let's hear it for Captain America!" Bucky yells. Everyone was cheering but I wasn't paying attention I was just looking a Steve and
he was looking back.
