There they were, walking together. It was just now and Steve, they didn't need anyone else. They made it to the park around 2 PM, Steve grab Nat's hand and she didn't try to stop it. Steve wasn't entirely sure how he was going to go about this but in the end he just wanted to be with with Nat.
"I love coming to parks"
"Me too"
" Steve, remember when we lived in the Stark tower in New York City and we would walk to the nearest park almost every day"
"Yeah, I like this one better"
"Me too, luckily this one still comes with you"
"Same for you"
Right now they were looking at each other and Steve had a very loving look in his eyes. The moment moved on and they continued walking. Their fingers still intertwined of course, nothing can separate them. As they were walking Nat would point something out or be talking to Steve and he would look at her with this look of love. Anyone would be able to see that he's clearly in love with her. That could feel him constantly staring but she never said anything. After they had been walking for about 15 minutes they found a smoothie truck and decided to get to. Steve wasn't up to order while Nat stayed a little ways back.
"So how long?"
"How long what?"
"How long have you two been married? Or together at least"
"Oh we aren't together"
"Really? Wow I would have never guessed based on how you look at her"
"I am in love with her... but she is just scared.. of love"
"I see, well I think that she may not be as scared anymore"
"What makes you say that?"
"When you are looking at her, she knows and she's smiling and when you aren't looking at her she's looking at you"
"Wow"
"Here you go. Can I talk to her?"
"Thank you. Go ahead" Steve waved Nat over then backed away.
"What's your name chica?"
"Nat"
"Well Nat, this man here is in love with you. Very in love"
"Oh... yeah he is, he's always staring too"
"I have a feeling that he would wait forever to be with you"
"Probably"
"Anyway I'm sure you two have plans"
"Thank you"
Nearly right across the street there was a big tree that provided a shaded area for them to sit at. There weren't any other people near them either. They laid the blanket down, Steve sat down while Nat laid down with her head in his lap. Steve continued to look at Nat while he played with her hair. Nat was trying not to focus on the fact that he was staring at her.
"Being outside like this is amazing and the blue sky is beautiful"
"Y-"
"You already used that phrase once, so you can't use it again"
"Sorry force of habit" Steve laid back. Now they were both laying down, Nat's head, still on Steve's lap.
"Hey Steve"
"Hm?"
"I have a question"
"Ask away"
"If you could have any job or do anything other than be in Avenger what would you do?"
"Something involved with helping people, that's always been my goal, no matter what"
"So like a police officer?"
"Maybe. What about you?"
"Me?"
"Yeah, what would you do?"
"Well... I would be a dance teacher, ballet specifically"
"You can dance?"
"Yeah what do you think the studio is for?"
"That's what that is?"
"Yes stupid"
"Can I see you dance sometime?"
"I have never danced for anyone before, but... maybe for you"
"I would love that"
Love. That word the meaning of it was changing for Nat. Love was starting to mean being with Steve. About five minutes later people would start coming up to them and asking for pictures. After a few they grabbed the blanket and made their way back to the Compound. Surrounding the building itself was about 75 acres of land with trees so they decided to lay the blanket out there instead. No people, no pictures, just them. By the time they felt ready to go back inside it was 4:02pm, both of them were getting pretty hungry so they decided to go make dinner. Sitting there eating gave Steve time to process what happened. He was happy with today and was sure that he was making progress.
