i'll be there - steve rogers

( inspired by the song 'I'll Be There' by Jess Glynne
small warning: family death by car accident )

Oh oh, I'll be there
When ya need a little love
I got a little love to spare

You dropped the phone, as tears poured out of your eyes. Just like that, you were an orphan. Everything was frozen, and you collapsed to your knees, breaking down in sobs. You heard the words you never wanted to hear:

"[Y/N], I'm so sorry...your parents just died in a car accident," your aunt had said.

All of a sudden, the door being aggressively pushed open interrupted your sobs. Strong arms were tight around you, enveloping you in a hug.

"I heard, [Y/N]," the voice said. "I'm so sorry."

"Steve," you choked out, pulling away to look him in the eyes. "What do I do now?"

"I- I don't know," Steve sighed, wiping a stray tear that had just escaped you eyelids. "Maybe I can adopt you or something? You're only 16."

A small smile came upon your lips before you could respond, "that would be cool."

[ONE WEEK LATER]

"I'm back!" you shouted, your voice echoing through the compound.

"How was school?" a voice asked, matching Steve's as he walked into the room.

"It was good," you looked to the floor. "Thank you, Steve."

"Glad to hear your day was good," he chuckled, pouring a glass of water. "No problem."

"No...really," you insisted. "For this; for adopting me."

"Of course, [Y/N],"Steve gave a sad smile. "I love and care about you."

You wrapped your arms around his middle for a hug, his strong arms hugging you back.

"I love you too," you murmured into his chest. "Do you want to play UNO?"

"Su-" Steve was cut off by two voices.

"UNO?" Sam and Bucky's heads popped through a doorway, before glaring at each other.

"Game on," you put your hands on your hips, raising an eyebrow and smiling.
