I was nervous as I looked into the mirror as Natasha styled my hair. "Alright Melissa what's wrong this time?"

"Our anniversary is next week and I don't have anything to give to Steve, I mean it's the first time we're celebrating it as a couple not as colleagues or friends..." I blurred out.

"Melissa if I would have known better, which I do. You're a good cook Melissa."

"Natasha cooking food for him isn't hard, I just want to give him something to keep."

"Hmm, how about a pocket watch with your photo in it vintage style?"

That was a really good idea, "Tash you're a genious."

"I'm you're friend and I just happen to know Steve pretty good too."

"I suppose you do." I giggled as I looked at my 40's inspired look in the mirror, "Do you think he'd like this?"

"Go out and find out for yourself." She said.

"You're right." I said with a chuckle as I clicked my red high heeled shoes Dorothy style as I headed out.

Steve was talking with Sam... I had a feeling I knew what about, either about Bucky and my sister or maybe my great Grandmother... God bless her soul... She wasn't doing very well, in fact she was getting worst.

"Melissa?" It was Steve as I saw him looking right at me from where I stood up on the stairs. He looked priceless at me as he did on our first date... Like a cartoon kid at Christmas with hearts in his eyes rather than stars. I giggled at him as he took my hand as I reached the bottom of the stairs. "Melissa you really didn't have to go this far to sweep me off my feet."

"With all these Veterans here I felt like giving them and you a little bit old classy touch."

He pinked up, "Awe Melissa."

"Want to dance?"

"I'm glad you helped Peggy to let us have that dance we neglected on. And yes I'd like to dance with you..." He said.

"It was the only thing I could think of to repay you for reuniting me with my family... Everything I lost I gained back thanks to you."

"Almost everything," He said sadly as we got onto the dance floor... Tony quickly changed the music to slow romantic music for us, then dimmed the lights, "But that will happen eventually."

"Yeah," I said as we waltzed. Steve looked to where Bruce was as he and Natasha were dancing... A lot closer to one another... Very close practically hugging. I looked as I noticed, "I think it's called a lover's embrace."

"Ah really?" Steve spoke nervously, "I think I've seen it before in a bar Bucky and I was at."

"Steve sometimes you can adapt the dance, lose yourself to the music. Sometimes the simplest moves is all you really need to get the girl."

Steve stared into my eyes, as he leaned in to kiss my lips, sweet and yet simple, as he whispered in my ear as he guided me closer to his body, "Just like that?"

"Exactly like that." I said taking my arms and wrapping them around his neck as his wrapped around my waist.

"So ah... Next week is the anniversary of our first meeting..."

"Yeah..." I said, "I don't know I mean it's..."

"Yeah..." He said, "I know it wasn't like..."

'Great Melissa this dance is starting to get real awkward really fast, think girl think.' I thought as I thought of a better idea, "Why don't we celebrate our first date because we first met on the streets in Manhattan while there were Aliens here, there and everywhere?"

"Ah yeah... It took me two years to get over the crap I went through."

"Steve, you weren't the only one." I reminded him.

"Yeah well... Melissa you were there for me, just as I was there for you. And honestly I feel as if I should have asked you much sooner than I did."

"Steve, it's alright don't beat yourself up about it okay?" I assured him.

Later that night we were having some beers at the couch as Tony got the idea he could lift Thor's Hammer... Oh good god I was laughing till my stomach hurt.

"Hey Melissa are you going to try before Spangles?"

"Oh I don't know... I'm Norse descent does that apply?"

"You'd honor your family if you try." Teased Thor.

"Thor I already have honored my family, I returned when they were losing faith, now I fight with all of you isn't that enough?"

He thought for a minute, "Aye that would suffice, but if you lift Mjolnir will go along further in Asgard."

"Nah I'll pass, too much power will make me more overconfident than I'm used to, like Starky already is." I joked as the gang chuckled, "I'd rather be with the fella holding it."

"Low blow Mrs Spangles!" said Tony... Steve spaced out as he imagined seeing Bucky in his old Army uniform and Sam behind him as he looked up a blue carpet seeing...

"Hey Capsicle it's you're turn... Capsicle?"

"Eh sorry Tony..." He said as he took Tony aside... I wondered what they were having a quick chat about. Tony looked a little surprised then he looked at puzzled me then back at him. I wished Melly was here she can read lips no matter what language.

"Steven it's you're turn to lift Mjolnir that's if you are up to the challenge or not."

"On my way, gang." He said as he unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt and rolled them up."

"Steve what were you two talking about?"

"Oh... Nothing." He and Tony spoke together.

"About time you two saw eye to eye on something." I said with a sigh... I guess I'll find out later what they had to talk fast about. Steve got into position as he put both hands on it as if he was getting ready to bat a ball at the park. He breathed then I saw him managed to move the hammer under an inch on the table as it screeched on the glass... He looked up at us as he let go and flashed me a smile.

"You gave it your best shot Steve."
