The Journals of Two Hearts

Summary: Bruce and Steve document their days longhand - keeping journals hidden from view that divulge their thoughts on time spent together. [BruceSteve]

S/N: Yo, Shoutaro here. This one will be a little tricky. Each chapter will depict an entry of Bruce and Steve's respective journals, Steve's penned by Philip and Bruce's by myself as they happen. Hope you guys enjoy this one.

Bruce's journal, hidden in the pages of his mathematical notes for his research.


Entry #1: Unexpected Trip

insert random scientific equations here

Well, considering that I just filled up 2 pages with random equations to throw off anyone from peeking into this notebook, I think I'm safe to continue.

It's with a heavy heart that I pack my bags and go on a trip to Canada for 2 weeks. The flight's scheduled Friday evening, and that's tomorrow. Sometimes I wonder if I get too carried away with my research. Maybe. I'm not sure. But this trip was long overdue, and I couldn't exactly say no forever. I wish I did though.

I already told Steve about it. Outwardly, he seemed fine about the whole thing, and even went as far as egging me on to push through with it; all with that fake smile on his face. I never told him this before, but I had a pretty good idea what he was really thinking beneath that smile or the tone he was taking whenever we would talk. He somehow grew predictable but still charming and cute all the same.

Must be why I love him.

I don't bother hiding it though; everyone here at the Avengers Mansion has been nothing short of supportive, or excessively teasing me about our growing relationship. Tony especially.

But I seem to be straying from the point of this entry. Well, I can't do much about the trip. It's practically unavoidable. I hope Steve will survive the 2 weeks. Who knows? Maybe I'll bring home a little souvenir for him so he doesn't feel too bad.

I'm sure he'll miss me, but I wonder if he knows I'll miss him twice if not thrice as much?
