Both boys stood under the dim street light outside the cafe. Steve was leaning against the window with one foot propped up against it, his weight on the other foot and his hands deep in his pockets.

Bucky stood in front of him tapping his toe impatiently, beginning to irritate the smaller man more than their friends lateness was.

"Girls they're always late" Bucky huffed showing his hands deep into his pockets. "Where the heck is she anyway?"

"Relax Bucky, she said she'd be here" Steve sighed shifting his weight onto his other foot..

"I swear if she'd doing this on purpose to make me late for my date with Connie" Steve rolled his eyes at his friend's overactive imagination. "I'll never forgive her"

"Yeah you will, you always forgive her" Steve smirked looking at his friend in disbelief before a large grin spread across his cheeks. "Because you love her"

"Nope not this time, it's my last night and I..."

"There she is" Steve called out in relief, pointing to the girl was was walking alone towards them under street lights. "She's a sight and a half"

Bucky's breath caught in his throat as she approached them.

Her long brown hair was in a wave like fashion and was pinned back at one side. Her light blue eyes were framed with long, thick lashes that brushed along her blushing cheeks when she blinked. She was wearing a simple but pretty light blue and white dress.

He couldn't believe this would be his last time seeing her for no one knew how long.

"Sorry I'm late boys, had to change shoes. I couldn't dance in my other ones they were too slippery" She grinned

"There is no way your father knows you're wearing that" Steve laughed softly as he kissed Illiana's cheek softly.

"No I managed to get out before he called me back for an outfit inspection, my sister bought the dress weeks ago but changed her mind about it so she let me wear it, she said I looked nice for once. My beauty was hidden by hanging out with you two knuckle head boys my mother said" Illiana grinned ruffling Steve's hair affectionately before she turned to Bucky who was still staring at her wide eyed.

"You okay there Buck?" She asked with a small laugh noticing the way his eyes were glued to her.

"You look beautiful" Bucky smiled before he tried to hide his embarrassment with a over confident wink.

"Thank you" She blushed tucking a small bit of hair behind her ear. "Where's Connie?" she asked looking round for the brunette she expected to be latched onto Bucky's side.

"She said she'd meet us there, she's bringing a friend" Steve smiled, Illiana could tell by the look on Steve's face he wasn't best please at Bucky trying to set him up with someone, again.

"Looks like you won't be stuck with me all night after all. Come on best not keep Missy waiting" Illiana grinned wrapping an arm around Steve's shoulder as she linked her other arm with Bucky's who looked down at their joined arms with a grin.

"And remember you" Bucky pointed towards Illiana who frowned in confusion. "Keep the claws in tonight and be nice to Connie and her friend. I do not want a repeat of last time, understand?"

"Yes sir" Illiana gave a mock salute before both her and Steve fell into fits of giggles.

"You're gonna be the death of me you little minx" Bucky grinned tickling her side lightly causing her to bump Steve into the road just as a car was coming round the corner which had Bucky reaching for Steve to pull him out of the road.

All three began to laugh as the car drive flipped the three of them the bird which Bucky happily returned.
