Its been three months since the SSR has been shit down. Three months since it became something entirely new, with a new Director to oversee it all. Margaret 'Peggy' Carter, along with her founding partners Howard Stark and Colonel Chester Philips, have created this organization from the ground up. From an old abandoned military supply storage in Jersey, to a refurnished secret bunker for the world's new protector- SHIELD. 

Everyone of the new staff, many members from the old SSR branch, have been working long tireless hours to bring this organization up from scratch, and no one has worked more for it than the Director herself. But alas these long hours has her husband in fear, fear for her health. For nearly 3 weeks Peggy has been sick, but she refuses to see a doctor, but her love has his ways of helping her when she refuses. 

Daniel Sousa has been waking earlier than his wife and makes her soothing tea to help settle her morning troubles. At work he buys her favorite lunches; always the one's she craves the most. And when the day is done, whether at home or in her office, he brings her warm cooked dinner and her favorite deserts to take her mind off of work. Everything between the young couple was as perfect as it could be given the life they lived, but such bliss had to come to an end; at least for a while.

A new high profile case had caught the attention of SHIELD's radar. Someone with experience and knowledge or the area. Someone who is easily blended with civilian life, and is often overlooked as a threat. Who more perfect than the Directors husband- A disabled veteran from the War to end all Wars. Now he must return to where he first started, on the edge of Europe, to face the danger of his enemies; only this time he has the perfect partner to guide him and worry after him the whole time he is away. 

Daniel must go deep undercover, infiltrate the likes of a rumored communist operation, and help the European government discover the mole that has been stealing and leaking classified information to the Allies enemies.

"Promise me you'll be careful."

"I will, I promise, Peg. You don't have to worry." She snickers at this and huffs, while crossing her arms defensively. 

"You're leaving for God knows how long, no communication, nothing. Daniel you could be gone for a year, maybe longer. I don't-"

He stops her there with his lips against hers. A gentle but persuasive reminder that he is here, now. And that he loves her no matter what. She tends to spiral out of control when under large amounts of stress. Its even worse when its worrying after the ones she loves and tries to hide her true agony. 

"I love you,Peggy. And as long as I have a say in it, I WILL come back to you. Always, until the end. Remember?"

"Until the end," She leans in again for that reminder. A reminder found only in his kiss and in his touch. A feeling that only comes from this man. "And forever more."

The two share an intimate and knowing smile. Once they share when its just between the two of them. 

"And forever more," He repeats, echoing the words they promised on their wedding day. One of the most memorable and happiest day of their lives. 

Now their minds will only be filled with memories, until the day comes where they can make new ones; as long as Daniel returns...

His bag is packed and ready to go. All that was left was to bid his love goodbye, and what a heart wrenching moment it is for them. But the both hold on to the idea of returning to each others arms again. Only a few months away. 

Before he leaves he address an issue that has been pulling at him all morning, a request he knows she has been avoiding. "While I'm gone, can you please do one thing for me. Just one thing?"
