i wake up to the sound of someone moving

i jump up and stand over steve

his body restlessly moving in his bed

i place a hand on him, even though i was told not to touch him

he instantly stops moving and opens his eyes

i smile widely as i feel a tear fall down my cheek

"steve" i whisper

he looks at me and sits up, surprised

"y/n?" he asks, unsure

i nod and jump into his arms

he holds me tightly, tears falling into the crook of my neck

i pull away and wipe his tears

"baby, don't cry" i whisper

he smiles "i just- how am i here right now?"

i smile "i'll tell you everything, but you have to promise me that you'll stay calm"

he nods, hesitantly

i hold his hands as i look into his icy blue eyes

"you have been frozen and in a deep sleep for seventy years" i say softly

his eyes widen "then how are you still alive?"

"i was the second person they injected with the serum. except mine partly failed meaning that it didn't give me strength, just slowed down my aging"

he nods

someone knocks on the fake door

"come in" i say

furry walks in with a smile "hello captain rogers, it's a pleasure to meet you"

steve nods "thank you"

"can i take him home now, please?" i ask furry

he nods with a smile

i stand up and hand steve some shoes

he puts them on as i lead him out of the fake room

"woah" he whispers, looking at the vacant room surrounding the set up

"i know, it's stupid. i told them that i could keep you in my apartment"

he looks at me "you have your own apartment?"

i nod and smile

once we step outside, i don't rush him

letting him look all around at the busy city

it is new york after all

i decide to hold his hand and walk to my apartment, letting him look anywhere he wanted

~

i open my door and let steve walk in, closing it behind me

he stands in the doorway, looking everywhere

i giggle "you can walk and look around"

he sends me a smile before walking around

i walk to my room to find some new clothes

i take them with me to the bathroom

i change and come back out, seeing steve look around my room

when he sees me watching him, he blushes

"um, there's only one bedroom" he says quietly

i smile and walk over to him

"it's okay to sleep in the same bed as a girl"

he raises his eyebrows "really?"

i smile "yes. so, if you are okay with that, we can sleep in the same bed"

he scratches the back of his neck "wouldn't your boyfriend mind?"

i shake my head, smiling "no, i don't think he would mind"

his face hardens "what has this world done to you? y/n that would be cheating. that-" he stops

"why are you laughing?"

i stop laughing and stand up, holding his hands "you have always been my boyfriend. i've never broken up with you and you never broke up with me. when you- i thought you were gone, i never moved on. i never wanted to move on"

a tear slides down his cheek

i wipe it away

"i'm in love with you steve rogers. i've never fallen out of love with you or even looked at a guy the way i look at you"

another tear slips down his cheek

"i love you so much, y/n" he whispers before pulling me into a bear hug

i hug him back just as tight, remembering the feeling of being in his arms all those years ago

"i can't believe you didn't move on" he mumbles, placing a kiss on my head

"i couldn't" i whisper "i saw your face everywhere and you were always on my mind. you were always in my heart. you are the only man i've ever loved. i couldn't just let you go and i could never find someone like you"

i pull away to wipe his tears away again

"i fell in love with that skinny kid from brooklyn" i say, laughing

he joins me

"i fell in love with the crazy girl who wanted to dance with me"

we both laugh again

suddenly, we both stop laughing as we both start leaning in

he captures my lips in his as his hands find my waist and my hands find his hair

i pull away suddenly, looking into his blue eyes

"i want to do it with you" i whisper

his eyebrows shoot up, surprised

"only if you want to" i add

he smiles "oh, i want to"

and with that, his lips were attached to mine again

it was the best night i've had for over 70 years
