Homeward Bound

Chapter 4: Redface Creep And The Almost Kiss

***I know that isn't Steve and Evelyn,but that's what the almost kiss looks like***

Evelyn's POV

Steve,Bucky and I freeze. I glare at him anger surfacing.

" Captain America! How exciting! I'm a great fan of your films. So Dr. Erskine managed it after all. Not exactly an improvement, but still impressive." Schmidt taunts.

Steve punches him in the face"You've got no idea" he says.

"Haven't I?' Schmidt says as he and Steve fight. While they fight Zola pulls a leaver and the catwalk separates."No matter what lies Erskine told you, you see I was his greatest success! " Schmidt exclaimes pulling off his skin to reveal a red face.

"You don't have one of those,do you?" Bucky ask.

I shake my head"Luckily no he does not" i reply.

"You are deluded, Captain. You pretend to be a simple soldier, but in reality you are just afraid to admit that we have left humanity behind. Unlike you, I embrace it proudly. Without fear!"Schmidt exclaims.

"Then how come you're running?" he calls to Zola and Schmidt. He turns to us"Come on let's go" he says. We find a gantry that we have to cross,but the entire building is on fire.

"Let's go. One at a time." Steve says making me and Bucky cross first,but it collapses after we cross.

"There has to be some rope or something!" Bucky calls.

Steve shakes his head"Just go! Get out of here!" he exclaims.

I shake my head panicked,but determined"No! I'm not leaving without you. Till the end of the line remember!" I call to him. Steve bends the broken rails and jumps across.

"Why are you such a stubborn woman?" he ask me as we swiftly escape the burning base.

I smile"Complain all you like Cap,we both know it's a part of me that everyone enjoys most."

He chuckles"Isn't that true. Can I ask you something?" he says.

I nod"Course you can." I reply as we walk through the woods to the camp.

"Are you and Howard a couple?" he ask nervously stumbling a bit. Bucky chuckles at him.

I stop in front of him as I chuckle"No honey. No we are not. He is my best friend,he helped me become me again after I got back from Pearl Harbor." I reply softly and resume walking. Bucky and Steve look shocked.

Bucky"Woah you were there?" he ask.

I nod"Yea. I don't like to talk about it." I say gently.

Steve nods"That's ok. We understand." he says relieved I'm not with Howard.

"Why were you curious about Howard and I?" I ask smiling.

Steve blushes at my question"N No reason" he stutters out.

Bucky laughs"God this is fun to listen to."

It takes a while,but we eventually get to camp one of the soldiers yells out to camp as we arrive.

Steve salutes Col. Phillips"Some of theres men need medical attention and I'd like to surrender myself for disciplinary action." he says.

Col.Phillips looks over him and myself before speaking"That won't be necessary." he says then turns walking away.

Peggy stands there arms crossed"You're late." she tells Steve and I.

I hold up the transponder"Sorry,my button box broke." I joke and hug her.

"Hey! Let's hear it for Captain America."Bucky shouts and the men cheer for Steve.

Later that night I am sitting by a fire wrapped in a blanket."Can I sit here?" Steve ask.

I look up and nod"Sure." I reply softly then he sits beside me wrapping his coat around my shoulders.

"Thank you. For coming with me and believing in me." he says gently.

I smile looking into his eyes"Believing in you is the most natural thing in the world. I knew from the moment I saw you I would follow you anywhere. Into any battle,or sticky situation." I say gently hair in my face.

Steve brushes the hair out of my face"Your so beautiful,and fierce and strong. I feel like I can be Captain America as long as you are by my side." he says gently his blue eyes staring into my brown ones.

I flush"Your too sweet." I reply. Steve and I lean in our lips inches apart then we hear an"Opps" and pull away. We look up and see Dum Dum Dugan turning away going to his tent.

I stand up "I should get to bed. Get rest before we all go to The States tomorrow" I say going to give Steve his coat.

"Keep it. It looks good on you." he says softly.

I lean up and kiss his cheek before going to the tent Peggy and I share.
