You loved your sister, really you did, but if you had to hear one more word about Steve Rogers, you were going to go insane. Ever since the serum had been a success, Peggy talked about it almost non-stop. You understood that it was part of her job and you were glad she was happy. When she wasn't talking about work, however, she was talking about him. About Steven Grant Rogers, a.k.a Captain America. It wasn't until you finally met him that you would understand.
"Come along, Y/N," Peggy urged you and you followed quickly. You were extremely intrigued by everything you were seeing. You were more of an "in the background" kind of person so you didn't see much of what your sister did.
Your eyes kept flicking this way and that until they finally landed on one of the most gorgeous men you'd ever seen. You looked him over, from his blond hair to toned chest and arms while his blue eyes stared at Peggy. At least, until you came into view. Then, he looked at you with a sheepish smile.
"Hello," he greeted. "Captain, this is Y/N. Y/N, meet Captain Rogers." You beamed at the man. Seeing the way the two of them were looking at each other, you now knew why he was Peggy's main topic of choice. The blond carefully reached out a hand that you took. "Steve. So you're Y/N, huh?"
"Yes, the hidden Carter sibling. I usually work behind the scenes. It's wonderful to finally meet the famous Steve. You are all Peggy talked about during our lunches." Peggy elbowed you in the ribs. "Hush," she scolded quietly and Steve chuckled, his cheeks a bright red.
He cleared his throat and forced his gaze away from Peggy again. "Behind the scenes?" You nodded. "I study HYDRA weapons and help to develop our own. I'd be happy to show you if you're interested." Steve grinned and nodded. "Sure. You don't mind, do you, Peg?" Peggy laughed and assured him that she didn't.
Steve followed you and Peggy back to your place of work, your lab if you will. When you arrived, Peggy excused herself to make a call, leaving you alone with the new super soldier. "She likes you, you know," you told Steve. HIs face immediately turned red to the tips of his ears. "W-Who? Peggy?" You snorted, "No, the first lady of the United States. Of course I meant Peggy." Steve chuckled softly. "You really think so?"
"She hides it well, but I know my sister. And I can tell you like her too. You should ask her on a date, Captain. Take her dancing. She loves to dance, though she won't admit it." You knew Peggy would kill you if she heard you revealing all her secrets, but you knew that Steve wouldn't make a move without a little push.
"I don't know. I don't exactly have the best luck with women," he confessed. You let out another little chuckle. "I've heard. I wasn't joking when I told you that Peg talks about you all the time. Give it a shot, Ace. Before the whole world collapses in on itself."
Steve didn't reply, but you could see he was considering it. Then, he cleared his throat again. "So, are you gonna show me what we're working with?" You rolled your eyes at his attempt to change the subject, but nodded anyway. You showed him your latest creation. In the hallway, Peggy stood just outside the door with a smile on her face. It warmed her heart to see her sibling and the man she loved getting on so well. Even though you had embarrassed her, she was glad you finally met Steve.
