Night has fallen before we knew it and the rest of the team had headed back to their respective homes; T'Challa returning to Wakanda with Okoye and Shuri, the Guardians back to space, whereas Loki, Carol and Thanos had retreated back to their rooms for the night.

Now, it was just us seven- or as Tony likes to call us, the 'OG Seven', joined by Sam and Rhodey, along with Bucky and Wanda.

"To the newly engaged, congratulations!" Tony says, raising his drink to the air, "It's about time Steve plucked up the courage to pop the question."

"Do you have any idea how many times he came over to my house to ask if he should? 'What if Camille doesn't want to settle down?', 'What if she's happy the way we are?' God, it was annoying." Tony mocks, drawing laughter from the group.

I turn to Steve, raising my brows at him.

"C'mon, it's wasn't that many times." He argues, looking a little flustered.

"Oh, but it was." Tony says groaning in disgust, "But this is perfect, really. There's no one I would trust more to love one of my best friends than one of my best friends." He pauses, furrowing his brows.

"Did that make sense or am I a little tipsy already?" He asks, "Well, moving on. I think I speak for everyone when I say, I cannot think of anybody that deserves the world more than the both of you and of I'm proud of you guys."

I look around the room to see every one of them with watery eyes.

Nat wipes at her eyes as she smiles at me, the brightest I've seen in a while and Thor who sat beside her wipes away at his eyes.

"Hey, Cam. Remember the time when I hated your guts?" Tony says, making me chuckle, "Look at us now. We've all built a family together and now the both of you are probably going to start your own. Of course, your child would be named Anthony and I shall be the godfather to said child."

"Oh, boo!" Clint protests, "I should be the godfather, I've known Cam longer than most of you here."

"Excuse me, I'm her sister!" Nat joins in, "I've known her since she was born, which- in case it wasn't clear enough, beats any of you losers."

Sam lets out a low whistle, "C'mon, Nat. That's harsh, even for you."

"Steve, Cam, who's going to be the godparent?" Bruce asks.

Everyone leans forward in their seats, eagerly awaiting our reply.

"Come on, Lady Camille, pick me." Thor pleads, "Imagine how amazing it would be for your offspring to have a mighty God as their godparent."

"I wouldn't mind being a godfather either." Bruce shrugs.

I glance over at Steve who shakes his head laughing, "We'll see."

Everyone lets out a grunt in annoyance, leaning back into their seats.

"You can't play with someone's feelings like that. You just can't." Tony states shaking his head.

"Hey, what about me, huh?" Bucky, who has been quiet so far speaks, "Not that it's a competition, but Steve and I have known each other for what? A hundred years?"
