New Years Series

"Stop trying to bribe me with snacks."

"Stop trying to bribe me with snacks." Peggy says with annoyance, but her husband knows better. He smiles brightly while leaning over her desk. 

"Why? Is it working?"

"Of course it's working!"

Peggy huffs and slumps back into her chair across from him, glaring at the victorious smirk growing on his face. Daniel always knew how to get around Peggy, bribe her, or make her smile. Even when she didn't want to. None of that has changed since they have gotten married. 

Peggy Carter-Sousa was finally having a day off soon and could go without stress or worry for 24 hours. A time in which Philips and Stark would handle SHIELD, not her. However, her husband was invited to a party by the newly elected director of the FBI's office in New York. Seeing as Daniel was the man connecting the calls and collaborated between agencies, he was the first to be invited. He also was given a plus one, and the new FBI director was quite eager to meet Sousa's famed wife and director herself.

And that was how they found themselves in this predicament. Peggy wanting to enjoy her time off while her husband needs her at this event. He knew he would have to bribe her, and the best way to do so was with food, and a massage. Daniel, offering her favorite cakes and snacks from London, seemed to make her drool at just the thought, and Peggy hated it. Alright she loved it, but was completely annoyed Daniel was winning the argument at hand.

"It'll only be for a few hours tops. Then we can go home and you can do whatever the hell you want to do and relax."

She raises a brow at this and smirks, making Daniel's cheeks redden. 'Whatever the hell I want?" Though starting to regret that offer, he still nods. "So.. what I'm hearing is you will make a nice bath, dinner, deal with poppet, and give me a massage before bed?"

Daniel laughs abruptly and grins. "If that's what you want, Peg. Then yes."

"Perfect!" She clasped her hands with a 'cat got the canary' smile, making him laugh. It was going to be a long weekend indeed. 

But Daniel Sousa could never complain if it meant his wife was grinning like the happiest person in the world. After all, Peggy Carter-Sousa deserved it all in his eyes. Always.
