Flame

Chapter 49

Seeing the ones you love die is hard but finding a way to cope without them, is even harder.

Tony Stark sacrificed himself to bring an end to Thanos. He sacrificed himself so the people he cared about could live the rest of their lives without the worry of Thanos returning.

Tony Stark was given the funeral he deserved and was finally able to rest, knowing his family was safe.

After the funeral, the Avengers all went their separate ways. Thor left Earth with the Guardians of the Galaxy and left Valkyrie as the new Queen of Asguard. Clint went home to be with Laura and his children on their farm. Peter returned to school and was reunited with his friends. And as for Steve, well that's a little more complicated.

Steve left to return the stones back to their original time line with the help from Bruce. Whether or not he succeeded, i don't know. I got home yesterday and haven't heard a word. Not knowing what Steve decided to do is killing me, i know Peggy will always have a place in his heart but i hoped what we had was True.

"You're doing it again" A voice says, pulling me from my thoughts. "He'll come back Kat. He loves you" Wanda tells me as i turn back around to face her.

"But he loved her too" I mutter as i look at her. After a few moments, i turn back to face the sea as I hear Wanda go back inside. I had invited Wanda to stay after the funeral, not only was the compound destroyed but i couldn't bare the thought of her being alone.

Hours had past and the sun was beginning to set. As the sun got lower so did my mood. The hope that Steve would return began to fade. Each passing minute was an ache in my heart. The thought of a live without him, kills me. Steve and i have had our fair share of ups and downs but we always found our way back to each other.

"Why the long face doll?" i hear his voice say and i immediately turn around to face him.

"You came back?" I ask him as he walks out, towards me "Of course did you ever doubt i would?"

"Truthy? The time travel made we wonder" I reply as he pulls me into his arms with a smile before pulling me in for a loving kiss.

*******

I became able to manipulate objects at the age of 5 as well as being able to create fire. My childhood was spent here, there and everywhere. My parents weren't really around, unless they'd been called to the school.

I grew up with Tony who was definitely the best brother a girl could ask for, he was there for me at a time when no one else was. He was my rock and was my best friend. Loosing him was hard and i never completely healed after he died. I spent time helping Pepper with Morgan and maintaining my title as the cool, fun aunt.

Joining S.H.I.E.L.D changed my life. I met Natasha who changed me completely and I met Clint who's given me a beautiful godson. I was part of the Avengers 'Earths mightiest heroes' which allowed me the chance to give back something to the world. I was given opportunities I had only ever dreamt of as a child. But how can i forget the one person i could not have gotten through my life without.

My Husband. Steve and I finally got married after being engaged since the whole Ultron ordeal. A year later, we were blessed with the birth of our beautiful daughter. Natalia Hope Rogers, named after my best friend. After Natalia was born, Steve and i found out we were expecting twins, twin boys. Anthony James Rogers and Peter Howard Rogers.

And that's my life. It was chaotic and messy at times but it was also fun and above all, it was epic.
