I slid into my slippers and wrapped my duvet around me. I grabbed my stuffed teddy bear and quietly shut the door behind me. I tip-toed over to Steve's room and stood in the threshold.

"Cap?" I whispered.

"Yeah?"

"Can I sleep with you?" I asked, blushing.

"C'mon," he chuckled and slid over in his bed, making room for me.

I shut the door and shuffled over to his bed. I crawled in under the covers and snuggled in next to him.

He kissed my forehead and wrapped his huge arm around me. He continued to read his book (To Kill a Mockingbird).

I placed my arm across his waist. I then fell asleep, knowing I was safe.


a/n: i was really scared one night so i wrote this. i imagine steve is great at cuddling :)
