"Excuse me, I'm looking for Mr. Stark." Steve said, walking up to a blonde woman, Lorraine, while she was reading the newspaper.
"He's in with Colonel Philips." She said as she turned her head since there was an awkward pause. Lorraine looked back at the newspaper but did a double take to actually notice that it was the famous Steve Rogers. "Of course, you're welcome to wait."
Steve awkwardly smiled and pointed to the desk next to him and leaned against it. He folded his hands together, waiting patiently.
"I, uh... read about what you did." She said showing him the cover of the newspaper, 400 PRISONERS LIBERATED.
"Oh- the- yeah. Well, that's you know... just doing what needed to be done." He stuttered.
"Sounded like more than that." She crossed her legs and smiled. "You saved nearly four hundred men."
"No, it wasn't just me alone, actually. Uh- Agent Diana, she helped me. Really it's not a big deal." He said, getting a weird feeling off of her.
"Tell that to their wives." She said, flirtatiously and stood up.

"Hey, Peggy and Diana. How are you doing?" Howard walked into the room as Diana and Peggy were chatting.
"Doing just fine, Howard." Diana replied, smiling at him. "Is that the new equipment?"
"Sure is, ladies. Look at how gorgeous it is, it's just amazing." Stark said as he showed it to the girls.
"Wow, what's it made of?" Peggy asked.
"Vibranium. It's the rarest metal on Earth." He smiled. "Hey, can one of you two go get Rogers? He's probably ready to see this."
"Sure thing, Howard." Diana said and started searching in the different rooms for him.

Steve crossed his arms together, awkwardly.
"Uh- I don't think they were all married."
"You're a hero." She stated.
"Well, it wasn't just me, you know. That- that also depends on the definition-"
"The women of America, they own you their thanks." She whispered as she grabbed him by the tie and moved closer to her desk. "And, uh- seeing as they're not here."
