Steve and Axelia met each other's eyes, then both looked at the gun in Axelia's hands, "Well…" Steve said quietly.

"That just happened," Axelia finished for him, "I think we lost the bet."

He nodded in agreement, "It didn't go all the way through, so I'd say so."

There was a moment of silence, neither knew what to say to break it. Axelia put the gun back where it goes and leaned on the wall, "So…what now?" She asked.

Steve shrugged and looked at his watch, "Well, it's 5:36, so we could go get something to eat?"

"Sounds good to me." They made sure everything was in its place, then went to the kitchen together, "You think anyone else wants to eat with us?"

He shook his head, "Well, Stark is probably busy, as always and Cora has got to be fixing Bucky's arm so I'd guess not." He opened the fridge, "There's leftover pizza from last night."

"I'm not feelin' pizza right now," she thought for a moment, "Does Tony have any hamburger meat?"

"I'm sure he does somewhere. Why?"

She shrugged, "I want tacos."

"We could go out, there's a mexican place around here."

"Won't the others wonder where we are?"

He was already walking away, pulling a pair of keys out of his pocket, "Let them wonder." She grinned and quickly caught up to him.

Axelia took a sip of her lemonade, "Are you sure alcohol is a good choice? You're the one that's driving."

Steve shrugged, "I can't get drunk, believe me, I've tried."

"So you're just always going to be the designated driver? That might come in handy once Cora and I can start drinking."

"Well if I'm the designated driver, that means I'm there. And if I'm there you're both going to have a drink limit."

Axelia laughed, "Cora isn't going to like that, she'd probably punch you if you took her drink away."

He shrugged, "Wouldn't bother me. Speaking of drinks," a look of curiosity crossed his features, "Have you ever drank before?"

"I've had sips of a few things, beer, margaritas, bourbon, just out of curiosity."

He nodded, "Understandable, you're a teenager, might as well do it while it's still illegal."

She raised an eyebrow, "Did Steven Grant Rogers just tell me to do something illegal?"

"Absolutely, it's more fun that way. Back in the 40's, Bucky got us a few when we were 16, of course I was too scared of getting caught back then, but if I could go back I would do it."

"Captain freaking America almost did something illegal?!"

He rolled his eyes, "Before I was Captain America."

"But still!"

He took the keys out of his pocket, "I will leave you here."

"But that means I'll have to walk home, you wouldn't want me to get lost in the middle of New York City in the cold, would you?"

He sat there, deciding what to do, then put the keys back in his pocket and muttered under his breath,"I couldn't leave you anyway."

Axelia was trying to make sense of what he had said when the waiter came with their food.
