Homecoming Dance
Sarah's POV

I take the tiara off my head and set it on the floor, taking my shoes off so I can wipe the green product from my legs. A few kids gasp at the left over scars, but I lay the boots down on the stage as I walk to my people. Steve starts taking his Cap suit jacket off, revealing a typical undershirt of his that he wears.

Sam walks over to me and grabs some paper-towels from Natalia's hands as they begin to wipe me down at the back of the homecoming crowd.

"Are you alright?" Steve asks as he walks to me with his half folded jacket hanging from his hand

"Yeah, i'm good." I nod as Natalia wipes off the goo from my neck

Sam wipes the stuff off from my knees and down, not that it got that far, but it's starting to melt on my heated skin..so it's dripping down my shins and calves.

"I can clean myself off, you know." I tell them

"I know." Natalia expresses in an edged tone

"I knew we shouldn't have trusted that girl." I hear Sam mutter

"I guess not." I sigh as Natalia tries to ring out my hair

She hands me a paper towel, I wipe off the chest of my dress along with the fabric that covers my butt. Once that's wiped off, Sam stands up puts his hand on his chin in a ponderous way.

"I don't want any of this stuff getting in your car." I tell him

Steve walks over and begins putting his Cap suit jacket over me, allowing it to warm me from the wind that's blowing on my moistened hair and skin at the moment.

"I don't want this getting in your jacket either." I urge Steve

"I don't mind, plus this is an older suit, Tony's been designing a new one for me anyways." he shrugs as he helps me into it

The heat that was preserved in the fabric of the jacket begins warming me, the size of the jacket is quite bigger than I expected since i've never been that close to Steve.

"T-Thank-k y-you." I shutter as my body feels the contrast of the cold liquid and warm fabric

"You don't need to thank me, Sarah." Steve smiles down at me gently

I huff in defeat

"We should get you back to the compound, do you wanna go get in the car?" he asks

"Yes please." I shiver

He gives me a careful nod as he scratches the base of his nose with the thumb of the opposing side.

"I'm gonna go talk to George for a second, if you wanna go with Nat and Sam i'll be back soon." he suggests

I nod

Sam and Natalia put their arms around me, I feel their warmth begin to surround me even though it's mainly Sam's body heat that I feel being shared with me. I look straight ahead as we walk out of the school, feeling the stares is enough to count at least a hundred sets of eyes looking our way as we leave.
