Skye's Story: Chapter 2

I started to walk back out of the training room, with Steve following me, to the movie room. I was blushed at the thought of him when we were training, the way he had smiled at me; this is the guy I've haven't stopped fan girling over since I was a teen. And I was about to watch a movie with him. As we entered the room the far wall had an L shapped sofa along the length of it, the wall adjacent to it had shelves from floor to ceiling completely stacked with an array of DVD's. The captain sat himself down on the black, leather couch as I headed to he stacks upon stacks of films.

I looked along the rows of films trying to find a film that I though the captain hadn't seen before but one that is at least moderately interesting. Scanning for a title that would pop out and grab my attention I smirked slightly as I saw a certain one and I pulled one of my all time favourites off the shelf. "I know just the film!" I grinned at the blond male before sliding the disc into the DVD player before joining Steve on the sofa, facing the flat screen on the wall. I was twiddling my fingers as I sat there feeling awkward, who wouldn't when they were sat next to this hulk of a guy. As the opening titles began to play, I paused the film using the remote at the side of me.

The solider looked towards me , with a questioning look. "Why'd you do that?" He asked me.

"I'm just going to get something quickly," I flashed a quick smile at him before I walked from the movie room to the kitchen.

Once I had gotten to the kitchen I downed a glass of iced, water to calm my self down. Pull it together women, I told myself, you've managed to keep you're cool for this long; don't freak out now. Who could blame me though? Steve was a total hottie, his tight shirts against his chest made me blush and smile just thinking about how gorgeous he looked.

I composed my self and then pulled out a massive, plastic bowl out from one of the cupboards and filled it to the brim with sweet popcorn. Once that was full I then went to the fridge and pulled out two bottles of chilled beer, picked up the popcorn as well as a bottle opener before juggling them all the way back to where the solider was.

I nudged the door open with my foot and carefully placed my drink on the floor beside the sofa, handed the captain his cold beverage and sat back down next to him with the popcorn bowl on my lap.

"Thank you," Steve said to me and opened his bottle of poison with his bear hands, well he does have super strength after all. "Would you like some help with yours?" He kindly asked, ignoring the bottle opener in had given to him just before.

"Please." I answered giving him my own and again opening it with ease, "that is so cool." I exclaimed making the muscly man cuckle slightly, taking a handful of the sweet treat and popping it in his mouth.

I found it pretty impressive that he could just pop open a bottle like that with just his hands -like he was tearing paper-when I even struggled to use the opener. Grinning at the tall blonde on my left, I blushed as I looked at his chiseled features. After taking a quick swig of my beer I then hit play on the remote, bring the image on the screen to life.

The opening titles played as the universal title was shown but with the music played on a keyboard in a game kind of tune. "Not so long ago..." the film then started playing "... in the mysterious land... of Toronto, Canada...." I looked across at Steve who had managed to move across closer to me without me realising which made me smile. "Scott Pilgrim was dating a high schooler" the words were up on the screen but I was still smiling at Steve. I love this film, when I'd been in foster care I had managed to try and read all the comic book versions of the film.

The super solider looked across at me and I blushed facing the tv again quickly. "So what are we watching?" He asked me as the band on the tv started playing and the credits started.

"Scott Pilgrim vs. the world, like it says." I pointed at the screen smiling as the title came up.

"So that guy is against the world?" He slid closer to me as he asked this. Steve Rogers just moved closer to me. That's god damn Captain America!

I moved closer to him as well without a moments hesitation, "you'll have to wait and see." I teased him. I'm surprised I could managed to keep this up without freaking out and going fan girl mode, I was teasing the super solider from the 20's who helped save the world from an alien invasion. Simmons would probably have passed out or something by now if she happened to be in my place.

I was so conscious of the way his chest rose and fell in time with his breathing, when he would take a quick drink or a quick nibble of the treats I had just brought in. It was if my brain was only tuned into him considering I could only just about put my focus into the film. Only just. I could hear the of the cold rim of the glass leaving his lips before holding the bottle firmly in his large hands. Why was I so aware of this? Probably due to the fact that I have been dreaming about this moment for years...

We had gotten past the part with Ramona's first evil ex and they ,Wallace and Scott, were discussing this famous actor ,Lucas Lee. Steve had his arms folded across his chest whilst I was curled up with my head on a cushion at the other end of the couch.

"Hang on! Go back!" He was pointing at the screen as I picked up the remote and re-winded the film pausing it on a shot of Lucas Lee. I found the way he reacted amusing, considering he was acting like an excited little puppy; he was certainty as adorable as one.
"Is that what you were looking at?" I was smiling and looked up at him as he looked down at me.

He looked really confused, "who is that guy?"

"He's an actor," I ruffled his hair slightly, the soft silk of his hair made me bite my bottom lip slightly.

The captain still looked a bit confused, "but he looks identical to me.."

"His name is Chris Evans and yes he does look like you." I poked the toned figure in his torso which happened to make me bite my lip slightly harder.

He came to realisation quite quickly, "so this is why you wanted to watch this film?" I nodded, blushing ever so slightly, and he smiled at me; why did a guy so cute have to be so close to me and be someone who I wouldn't stand a chance with.

I was defiantly going to be impressed with my self if I could manage to go the whole film with out him figuring out how I really feel about him, it would be a miracle to say the least; I just hope he doesn't because that would make things super awkward!

We continued to watch the film, side by side, our body's almost touching which made me grateful for the fact that the room was pitch black apart from the blaring light of the tv. Otherwise by bright, pink, fluorescent cheeks would have been a massive feature, giving away how much I was practically in love with this guy. It's like when you watch a film, you fall in love with the characters and the actors; this was just like this, but my ultimate star crush was sat only a cm or two away from me.
