Introduction
Hello everybody! I figured some background about who is Amelia would help follow the story better
Amelia A Star is the daughter of Tony Stark and a renowned Italian chef, name Alessandra Ferrara
They met when Tony was 20 years old (1990). He was studying abroad in Europe at that time), and accidentally got pregnant. After he asked his mother for advised, Tony did the right thing, and they married and stayed in Europe until he finished his Master
They moved back to the USA in the winter his parents were murdered. Tony couldn't bear to stay in America, so he went back to his family to Italy (Yes, I know, I know. I'm projecting myself in the story hehe)
The spent five years living happily there, but when Amelia was 5, her mother died on a car crash, pushing Tony into self-destructive behaviors like drinking and partying all night. The only thing he managed to do well was being a father (Let's not include cooking and doing ponytails. Eventually he learned)
When she was 6 (1996) they move back to USA and Tony assume the role of CEO of Stark Industries (That is why in Ironman they called him the prodigal son)
Life continued. Amelia went to college and Tony became Iron Man
After Steve woke up from the ice, he dated a few times a waitress he met, but quickly broke up. Then he dedicated himself to catch up with history.
Three months after waking up, Steve met Amelia in a coffee shop where she was studying.
"Rogers walked into the coffee shop he used to frequent to read history books and sighed in annoyance
Every single table was occupied; the only available stop was in a long rectangular table in the back corner. A young girl, probably in her early 20 had her nose buried in books.
Steve debated if he should ask her to share the table or just leave. He would very much like to have a friend out of SHIELD, but he didn't want to look like a perv approaching her.
He thought of Bucky telling him not to be so shy with new people, back in their youth, so he approached the table
-I'm sorry, ma'am"- He said extremely nervous
-Oh, hi. Yes? - Mia said smiling
-Could I sit here? - Steve asked- Every other table is taking, and I could use some reading – he added pointing at his book
-Of course! - Amelia said
They continued to meet at the coffee shop, not always sitting together. A few weeks later, Steve finally found the courage and asked her out.
The quick fell in love, but both conveniently forgot to mention their last name for a while.
Time past and the battle of New York came. The night after the fight, everyone was at the Stark Tower discussing what to do next.
"Steve and Tony were at Tony's office going over Howard's old records. Tony's phone went off, and a picture of himself with a young lady appeared on the screen, Mia.
Steve froze again. He knew Amelia's last name was Stark, but he didn't think she was THAT Stark. To be honest, Amelia didn't think he was THAT Steve Rogers either.
-Do you know that girl? Steve asked, realizing seconds later how much of a stupid question it was
-What would I have her number saved, Cap? - Tony joked around -She's my daughter
-Oh God – Steve said feeling dizzy all the sudden-I've been dating her for months. I am genuinely sorry…
-I knew- Tony cut him off- She showed me a picture of you too. I've known for months
-I'm sorry- Steve looked at his shoes feeling terrible
-I'll admit I still want to kill you- Tony said, and Steve just nodded agreeing with him- But, it's the first time Amelia dates someone that's not a complete jerk. An Idiot, but not a jerk
Steve looked at him, very confused
-Still, it doesn't feel right- Steve said- She's your daughter. I shouldn't even look at her.
-No man should ever look at my daughter- Tony agreed – Amelia disagrees with me, but she is too young to understand
Steve laughed softly
-I'll stay away from her -Steve added sadly. He was in love with her. He felt warmth and happiness in his chest again. Something he hadn't felt for Peggy
-Why? -Stark said, sipping a drink- She is happy. I'm ok with you dating her
Steve looked him in the eyes shocked
-Really? - Steve asked, but Tony's answer got interrupted by Amelia opening the door
-Daddy, I got us dinner – She said happily with a bag of take-out – Steve? What are you doing here? Do you guys know each other?
-We…sorta..work together… now…- Steve said awkwardly
-Oh God – Amelia covered her mouth with her hands – Dad! I'm sorry! I didn't know! Why didn't you tell me, Steve?
-No wonder why you too like each other -Tony said, rolling his eyes- Mia, I knew you were dating this idiot for months. We (Cap Righteousness and I) met a week ago. What are you, sorry?
-But… isn't it like backstabbing you? -Mia whispered
-Nope- Tony said- I knew you both didn't. Just an advised your mother would've given you: don't hide who you are. This dude should love the whole package or get the heck out of your life.
Mia smiled at her dad and Steve
-Thank you, dad- She said"
Their relationship continued, and they eventually moved in together. A few months before the civil war, Steve asked Tony for her hand. It never happened, however.
Before being a wanted man, Steve went back home to say goodbye to her
" Steve open the door of their apartment
Amelia was sitting on the couch, watching the news. When she saw him gave him a sad smile
Steve sat next to her and said
-I love you, more than I've ever loved anyone- He said- bu
Amelia softly place one finger over his lips stopping him
-I know- She said- I love you too
-You know I have to do this- He said
-Be careful, please- She added, Steve gave her a soft kiss on her lips and left."
The day Steve learned Bucky killed Tony's parents he wrote a letter to them (phone are not a thing, you know)
"Tony,
I genuinely don't have words to express what I need to tell you, but I don't want you to find out for anyone else.
Please, we need to talk. you know how to find me
Best Regards, Steve"
Of course, the letter arrived belated, and the fight happened. Steve was confused about Tony lashing his anger on him (Steve). Little did he know it was all a misunderstanding. He wouldn't betray his trust like that
