"Here you go Harry," Steve said, offering a sandwich and water bottle to the teen.

"Thanks," Harry replied, taking them from him and started to eat.

The man simply watched his son eat, wishing he knew how to talk to Harry. There was much he had missed out on in his son's life and didn't want to miss anymore, well that was if Harry wanted him to be a part of his life. Steve wasn't really sure how to broach the subject. He noticed Harry staring at him and offered a smile.

"Umm would you mind if I had a look at your shield?" The teen asked.

Steve blinked, not really expecting that. "Sure," he responded, handing it over from where he had set it aside.

Harry took the shield gingerly, the metal was cool to the touch and surprisingly light. It symbolised Captain America's place in history. His father had fought in a war just as Harry himself had done to protect what was important to them.

"I guess I get my saving people thing from you," Harry mused. "I thought I'd gotten it from Da-James, always risking myself for other despite the danger. It's still hard to not think of him as my father when for most of my life I thought he was," he paused before giving Steve a glance and continuing. "Sorry if that bothers you Steve, me talking about him that is."

"No, it's alright, it did sting a little at first knowing that Lily had been with him but I get it. Just because you're not blood related doesn't mean he isn't your dad Harry, he always will be but I hope you know that I am as well and I would like to try being your dad properly if you'll let me," Steve said.

Harry gaped at him. If he wasn't so self-conscience he'd probably hug the man. He finally had a father after all this time and his father wanted him despite how messed up he was and how little Steve knew him.

"I'd like that" Harry told Steve with a smile.

Steve's face broke out into a huge grin, feeling both relief and joy at Harry's acceptance. He had been worried the teen would reject the idea, not wanting to spend time with Steve or see him at all once everything was sorted out.

"Alright I'm just going to check in," Steve explained.

"Okay I'll stay here and finish eating," Harry replied.

His father nodded and made to leave. Harry realised he still had the shield and a mischievous grin crossed his featured.

He tossed the shield in his father's direction and yelled, "Oi Dad think fast!"

Steve turned, saw the shield coming and prepared to catch it but at hearing Harry's words fumbled with the shield and ended up smacking himself upside the head with it. Harry couldn't help but laugh. Steve attempted a glare but ended up beaming at his son instead. Harry had called him dad and he couldn't be happier.
