Phil Coulson woke early in the morning as he always did, he looked next to him and smiled softly at the sleeping Steve Rogers. It still surprised him sometimes, to wake up and find him there. His childhood hero, his teenage crush, and his love. Captain America had always been his rock even before he met Steve. The two had been together for a few months, but Phil still couldn't get over how amazing this all was. He forced himself to leave the sleeping Steve where he lied and went to make two cups of coffee. He put on his suit and got ready for work, walking to the bedroom.
Steve woke up shortly after Phil went to make the coffee. He sat up in bed, trembling slightly from the nightmares he had. He had been having nightmares since he had woken up from the ice. But this was different. This was about Phil. When Phil walked in with the coffee, Steve quickly wrapped his strong arms around him, hugging him tightly. Phil was so surprised he nearly spilled the coffee. They stood there like that for some time, just standing there, holding each other. "Cap?" asked Phil softly, just barely able to breath in Steve's strong arms. "Cap?" he repeated and Steve's arms loosened around him. "Please don't go, Phil." said Steve. Phil blinked for a few moments. "I have to go to work, Cap." he said, smoothing back Steve's messy hair. "Please.." said Steve. It broke Phil's heart to leave him like this, but he had a job to do. Duties to fulfill. "I'll be back at five o'clock, just like always." Phil promised, kissing Steve gently on the forehead. "I love you." said Steve softly. "Love you too." said Phil, grabbing his briefcase and walking out the door.
Through the day Steve waited for Phil, he had a sickening worried feeling in the pit of his stomach that he just couldn't shake. He went to the gym to get his mind off of it, but no such luck. Soon it was five o'clock and Steve was back at their apartment, watching the clock. No Phil. He picked up the phone, dialing Phil's number. No answer. He began to panic, pacing about the apartment and punching a whole through the wall. Soon it was nine o'clock at night and he heard the doorbell ring. He raced to the door, heart pounding. His face fell when he found it wasn't Phil. But two SHIELD agents. "Steve Rogers?" one of them said. Steve barely heard them over his own racing thoughts, but nodded slowly. "We're very sorry." one of them said. "Agent Coulson has been kidnapped." The tall muscular man stared at them for a moment. He hadn't realized he had been holding his breath until he sucked in a huge breath of air and fainted.
