We danced until the club was closing, I was more than content just being in his arms. This felt like home, like where I belonged and I never wanted to leave.

He's walking me home now, like a true gentleman, his hand barely on my waist as I lean into him with my head resting on his shoulder. The only sounds besides rustling of leaves and the like was the swish of my dress and clicking of my shoes against the pavement.

We arrive rather quickly at The Griffith and I suppress a sigh. I don't want this night to end. "I wish you didn't have to go, but Miss Fry has a strict rule. Absolutely no men above the first floor."

"I understand, don't worry. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon." he smiles down at me as we sit on the bench immediately outside the front doors. It's a beautiful night and I take a deep breath of the fresh evening air. Curling into his side I comfortably tuck my feet up next to me on the bench.

Craning my neck I turn so I can easily see him. He leans down and kisses me softly, such contrast than our first kiss which although similar had been a desperate plea. I wasn't sure I'd see him again and wanted to help give him even more incentive than he already had to come back to me, so he knew how I felt about him.

I sigh in contentment and nuzzle my face back into his neck as we gaze up at the stars twinkling in the clear sky. We are both so deep in observation that we jump when we hear sound of locks and Miss Fry's voice calling. "Miss Carter is that you? Please do come in, it's curfew."

I let out another sigh, "Yes Miss Fry. I'll be right in, if you'll just give me one moment to say goodnight." I turn and offer a pleading smile which she returns with a suspicious glare but she still stands there waiting for me to hurry with my goodnights.

He helps me back to my feet and I kiss his cheek again. "Goodnight Captain." my voice is a soft whisper as I straighten his tie. "Goodnight Agent." He offers a smile as he mimics my formality and kisses the back of my hand gently.

I turn and walk through the glass doors, turning to look over my shoulder once inside to see he waited to make sure I was safely inside before leaving.

"Who was that Miss Carter? Found yourself a beau, have you?" Miss Fry actually seems interested instead of suspicious.

"Actually, yes." I pause, "I was told he was M.I.A. at the end of the war." I admit after a moment of silence. "Before he went missing we actually planned to go dancing." a smile tugs at my lips.

"Well he certainly kept his promise, to come home to you when he'd gone missing. That surely is something." She actually looked appreciative of the fact that he'd been in the military and did everything he could just to come home to me.

"Yes, he certainly did. Thank you Miss Fry. Goodnight." We part ways and I hurry up the stairs to my room, unlocking the door with ease before being ambushed by Angie who'd somehow heard me sneak up.

"Where were you!" she takes in my attire before gasping, "Were you on a date?"

"Oh, please. It's not that shocking." I shake my head and she follows me in, the door closing softly behind us as we take up residence on my bed like schoolgirls sharing secrets.

"What's his name?"

"Um," I bite my lip and she gives me a look. "C'mon English. Spill. Is he in the army too?" She sighs when I still don't talk, but she can tell my answer to her second question. "Wouldn't it be just the coolest if your soldier was Captain America." she sighs dreamily.

I open and close my mouth immediately before looking away, embarrassed by her seemingly being infatuated with my boyfriend. "No way!" she widens her eyes and lunges forward to grab me by the shoulders. "It's him! Your new beau is Captain America?! Are you serious?!" She was speaking in whispered shrieks.

"Would you quiet down Angie!" I hiss at her. How on earth did she figure that out when I didn't say a word.

"I'm good at reading facial expressions, and yours was one of guilt and embarrassment." she answers my unspoken question with a wave of her hand. "That's so cool! You have to tell me absolutely everything!" She squeals in excitement.

"Oh, alright." I relent, finally deciding it'd be nice to share everything with my best friend. She lands up spending the night with me as I tell her story after story about my adventures with the Captain and how we fell in love and fought together.
