Oh I adore you people. Thank you! Thank you for the wonderful ideas! I'll be putting them to use, though you may not be able to tell if yours got used or not be sure that I did use it in one way or another. Writer's block is terrible but inspiration is wonderful! Thank you all, really thank you. If you want to know how I used your idea you can private message me. Oh and to those who reviewed just to review, thank you so much! I love reading your comments, it makes me grin like a crazy person (which I might be insane so it fits!) Lol anyways the kidnapping, which oh yes it will happen, will not be immediate. First we...Do something else! (did anyone notice the Pirates of the Caribbean reference there? No? Oh, that's disappointing) Read on!
No Real P.O.V
Steve came walking downstairs about a minute after the other Avengers had shoved past him to reach Tony's bedroom. He'd been standing there looking confused but joyful with bright red cheeks. No one had noticed of course in their haste to break down Tony's door and Steve was glad. He didn't really want to tell them that Gypsy had kissed his cheek. It felt kind of like one of those things that were best kept secrets till the right moment.
The second he reached the living room Steve noticed Gypsy. She was on the couch, face buried in her hands. He went over to her immediatly and sat at her feet. "Gypsy? Gypsy are you okay?" He asked worriedly.
"Yeah I'm fine." Gypsy said, looking up at him. She tried smiling, tried hiding the torture she was going through, but it didnt quite work. Steve saw through her lie.
"Liar, you can't hide the truth from me. I already know about the nightmares." Steve told her sternly. Gypsy chuckled at the liar comment but it was humorless. Steve grabbed one of her hands and squeezed, making her blush. Steve had to stop himself from smiling, he liked her blush. "We didn't talk about it last night but I think we should. Gypsy, why is he sending you these dreams?" He asked her.
Gypsy looked at him sadly. "Steve I can't tell you." She said, her eyes drifting to their interlocked hands. She watched as he ran his thumb across her knuckles and smiled a little.
Steve watched her carefully. "Why not? Are you afraid of him? Cause you know he can't get you here. He has no clue where you are." He told her, thinking he was assuring her.
"Don't you get it?" Gypsy snapped suddenly, looking up at him with sad anger in her eyes. "He can get into my dreams. He can see into my head! If I tell you he can hurt me even if he can't find me!" She told him furiously. She knew she shouldn't be getting mad at Steve and she wasn't, not really. Gypsy just needed to lash out and poor Steve was going to recieve the blow. "I can't tell you because he'll know I did it! He'll put me in a coma! He'll use my worst fears against me till I'm nothing more than a husk. I can't tell you because if I do he'll hurt me and he'll hurt you! I'm not going to give him more reasons to hurt you!" Gypsy very nearly shouted at him. No one upstairs heard her of course, they were all too busy talking excitedly to Tony about the baby, so Steve was on his own. He stared at Gypsy, obviously hurt. She was yelling at him and all he had tried to do was help. Still, Steve was smart. He knew it was just Gypsy being afraid, being angry. He didn't blame her for being mad.
Steve leaned forward and kissed Gypsy's forehead. "Fine, you don't have to tell me." He whispered, his lips brushing her forehead. He pulled away to see that her face had gone bright red and she was staring at him in suprise. "Remember though, you can always talk to me. I'm always here. I'll always protect you." Steve told her. He kissed her hand and grinned goofily at her. Gypsy smiled at him, still shocked. He really was sweeter than any guy she'd ever flirted with. Steve smiled at her one last time before going to the kitchen and making himself some breakfast. Gypsy stared after him, wondering if a real kiss from the super soldier would leave her just as flustered as a kiss to the forehead.
There, little Gypsy and Steve moment. I wanted to give you all a little bit of a romance, kind of like a thank you gift for giving me such wonderful ideas. Anyways, thank you again! I'm gonna go write the next chapters! Love all! Drinks all around! (I'm watching all my Johnny Depp movies again. Currently refinding my love for Captain Jack Sparrow.)
