Lyric's POV

Papa brushed my hair softly as Dad helped me put on my shoes. Nat had brought me this beautiful navy blue dress with no straps, which Papa was a little mad about, but dad calmed him down quickly. He said I was too exposed, but I didn't see the big deal. It was just shoulders.

"You look like a princess, Darlin." Papa said. I smiled and felt my face get warm.

"Thank you, Papa."

"You do look beautiful all dolled up." Dad added, swiping a thumb across my cheek. When Papa was done with my hair, I stood up and looked in the mirror in awe.

"You like?" He asked. I nodded my head excitedly.

"Alright, well, let's get going." Dad said. He wore a black long sleeve dress shirt and black pants while Papa wore the same, aside from the shirt color. His was dark blue.

On the main floor, there were a lot of people who I didn't know, so I quickly grabbed onto dad's hand.

"What's wrong, Doll?" He asked.

"There's a lot of...people here. I don't know them." I whispered. He smiled and kissed my cheek.

"You can hang out with Bruce or Pietro. And if you really wanna leave, come and find either me or Steve." He said. I nodded and saw Bruce sitting in the corner with Natasha. I walked over to them and offered a smile.

"See, I knew you'd look beautiful in that dress." Nat beamed looking at me up and down.

"Thank you. Do you...um...mind if I stay with you guys?" I asked hopefully.

"Make yourself at home." Bruce welcomed. I smiled and sat next to him. He and Natasha started to talk about whatever they talk about as I scanned the crowd. People watching was always more interesting than interacting with people to me. Each one was different from the other in age, looks, and skin color. It was interesting.

It got boring just sitting there and I got thirsty. I noticed Tony over at the bar and saw my chance.

"I'm gonna get some water." I said to Nat and Bruce. They nodded and I made my way over to Tony.

"Tony." I smiled. He looked at me and smiled back.

"Hey kid, nice dress. Did you need something?"

"Water?"

"Of course." Tony leaned over the bar and found me an unopened water bottle. I took it gratefully. Tony groaned unexpectedly, drawing my attention back to him.

"Norman Osborn is here. I really hope he's not here to brag about whatever Oscorp is up to. Time to act fake." He said winking at me. Before I could even tell him to wait, Tony left me standing at the bar awkwardly. Crap, I couldn't even see where Nat and Bruce once were now.

"Hey, I'm Harry," a voice introduced, startling me. "What's your name?" He offered a hand and I just looked at him.

"I'm...Lyric." I answered hesitantly. Harry put his hand down, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

"Your dress is really beautiful. I saw you from across the room and just had to talk to you." Oh my god, is he flirting with me?

"Your...um...your shirt is nice. It's like my Papa's." I stuttered. Harry laughed and moved a bit closer to me.

"You wanna keep talking or am I bothering you?" He asked a bit nervously. He looked...attractive. He had chestnut brown hair and icy blue eyes. He looked like he stepped out of the tv or something. I could feel my stomach start to flutter.

"No, we can keep talking."

Steve's POV

I spoke with Thor, Sam, and Bucky about some show Sam liked.

"Honestly, you guys need to watch this show. It is amazing!" Sam gushed.

"I'll try it." I shrugged. Sam smiled and slapped my back.

"That's what I like to hear," He chuckled. "Wait, if you and Barnes are here, where's Lyric?"

"She's with Bruce and Natasha." Bucky replied.

"Bruce and Natasha left a while ago." Thor stated. I looked at Bucky who looked at me.

"So where is Lyric?" I asked.

"Wait, isn't she over there with that kid?" Sam pointed out. Bucky and I were quick to look in the direction he pointed.

"She's...flirting! With who?" Bucky gasped.

"She seems to be having a good time." Thor added.

"I'll be the judge of that." I muttered. I started making his way over to Lyric and the boy while Bucky followed. They seemed to be laughing and clearly having a good time.

It was terrible.

When Lyric saw us, she froze.

"Hey you two." Bucky said politely. The boy stopped and looked at me and Bucky.

"Lyric, you know Captain Steve Rogers and Sergeant James Barnes?" The boy asked.

"Well Harry...umm...they're my parents." She stumbled.

"So they're...together?"

"No, we just take care of her." I scoffed.

"Oh. That's really cool." Harry said looking back at Lyric. "I'm Harry Osborn. You might know my father, Norman? He runs Oscorp."

"Oscorp? The company?" Bucky asked.

"Yes sir." Harry smiled. Jesus this kid is perfect, I gotta get Lyric outta here.

"Lyric, it's almost 10. I think you should get ready for bed." I blurted out. Smooth Rogers.

"Bed? I don't go to sleep until 12." Lyric frowned. I nudged Bucky in his ribs.

"Come on. No attitude. 10 o'clock is your deadline, Cinderella." Bucky stated. Lyric sighed, but smiled at Harry.

"It was...really nice talking to you, Harry." She said softly.

"Same. I hope to see you again." Harry said hopefully. Lyric's eyes lit up and Bucky scooped her up in his arms.

"See ya Harry." Bucky grunted. I waved and left with Bucky and Lyric. We walked to our floor and Bucky dropped Lyric on the bed.

"Wow, he...he...he's even cuter than Captain Hook." She sighed. I heard Bucky groan and I face palmed nervously.

Damn you Harry Osborn.
