"Is my new sister gonna be able to play with me and Mikey?" Liam asked, hanging into Bucky's neck as they crossed the street.

"Not yet, kid," Bucky said, adjusting his grip, so Liam's full weight wasn't hanging from his neck.

"How come?" Liam asked.

"Well, she's only a couple of hours old," Bucky paused, trying to figure out how to explain infants, "They, uh, don't do much until they're a couple of months old."

"Oh," Liam said, "Will she play superheroes with me? Cause this girl in my class doesn't like superheroes."

Carter scoffed and handed Liam another chicken nugget, "Girls can like superheroes just as much as boys. I'm sure Sarah will love to play superheroes with you boys when she's old enough."

Liam chewed on his lunch thoughtfully, "Okay. A she gonna act like Eddie? Cause he doesn't do much."

Bucky and Carter shared a laugh.

"Sorry, kid," Bucky said, "That's how babies start. You were the same way."

Liam looked offended, "I was not! I was fun!"

Bucky laughed, "Yeah, okay kid, you were fun."

"Hey!" Liam exclaimed when they walked into the hospital room, "Grandma! Grampa! What are you doin' here?"

He wiggled out of Bucky's hold and made a beeline for his grandmother.

Blair grinned and lifted Liam onto her hip, "Hello, my darling. We heard you have a new baby sister and we wanted to come see her."

Liam frowned, "You didn't wanna see me?"

Steve and Kit shared a look. Liam had been good about becoming a big brother, but now that Sarah was here, they weren't sure if his mood would change.

"Of course we came to see you!" Blair exclaimed, "We need you to show us around the city!"

Liam considered this, "Okay, I'm good at being in the city. I can show you and Grampa my favorite stuff!"

Blair kissed his cheeks, "We'd love that!"

"Hey, mom," Kit called from the bed, "Free up my baby so he can meet his new sister before everyone else gets here."

Carter grinned from her perch on Bucky's lap, "Don't worry about that. They'll be a little while. Eddie had some kind of exploding diaper situation, and Mikey toppled over a vial of something in the lab. So they're all waiting over there until they can come at once."

Steve and Kit laughed.

"Gives us, what? Half hour?" Steve asked, lifting Liam under his armpits and depositing him on the bed next to Kit.

"Enjoy it while you can, man," Bucky said, wrapping his arms around Carter's waist.

Steve grinned; it seemed like his face wasn't capable of making any other emotion, "I'll be right back."

"Where's the baby?" Liam asked, snuggling into Kit's side.

"Daddy's going to go get her right now," Kit said, "I missed you, Liam."

"Missed you too, Mommy," he replied, before looking at his grandparents, "Did you bring me presents?"

Kit nudged his side, "Liam Buchanan Rogers, that was rude. You don't ask people if they've brought you presents."

"Oh, lay off the boy, Katie," Don said, a small smile on his face, "Of course we brought him presents. What kind of grandparents do you think we are?"

Kit sighed, exasperated, "Dad, you don't have to bring him gifts every time you visit."

Blair flapped her hand in the air, "Katie, stop it. We don't visit very often, and when we do, we're going to spoil Liam. Sarah too!"

Liam was bouncing on the hospital bed, "What it is?"

Don handed over a wrapped package, "Here you go, champ."

He lifted another box form the bag and gave it to Kit, "This is for the baby."

Kit smiled at her dad, "What is it?"

Don smirked, "A set of plush mythological creatures. Dragon, unicorn, hydra."

Kit laughed, "I loved mythology when I was growing up."

"Exactly why I bought it, baby," Don said, kissing the top of Kit's head.

Meanwhile, Liam tore into the paper covering his gift, excitedly unearthing a Superman T-shirt.

"Hey! This is cool! He's a superhero like Daddy and my grown-ups," Liam carefully studied the print of the comic book hero.

Kit mouthed a 'thank you' to her parents over Liam's head.

"Hey! Uncle Bucky?" Liam asked, rolling onto his stomach and sliding off the bed, "Do you know Superman? Does he fight bad guys with you?"

He ran, full-tilt, to Bucky and Carter and climbed up to share Bucky's lap.

"Uh…" Bucky paused; were they supposed to tell Liam that the DC superheroes were fake?

He was saved by Steve's reappearance with a plastic bassinet.

"And making her first official appearance to the family," Steve laughed, "Kit and I would like to present Sarah Margaret Rogers. Six pounds, seven ounces. Eighteen inches long, and a very cute tuft of blonde hair."

He carefully lifted his daughter from the bassinet, cradling her head in his hand, "Who's first?"

Liam looked up from his shirt, "ME! I'm the big brother!"

He abandoned the shirt on Bucky's lap and scrambled back to Kit's hospital bed. Steve transferred Sarah to Kit's arms and helped Liam up onto the bed. Kit and Steve explained to Liam that he had to be very careful holding his sister.

"She has a lovely name," Blair said, peering at her granddaughter, "But neither of the names is for anyone in our family."

Bucky shifted, wondering how Steve and Kit were going to handle that one.

Kit nodded, still looking down at her son and daughter, "That's right."

"You always said you'd name a daughter after your grandmother," Blair said.

"Sarah was Steve's mom's name," Kit explained, "And since Liam is named after Dad, I wanted to name Sarah for Steve's mom."

"And Margaret?" Blair asked, accepting the infant when Steve offered her up.

"She was the love of Steve's life," Kit said plainly. Steve choked and Bucky's mouth fell open.

"I thought we weren't describing Peggy like that?" Steve asked in a hushed tone.

Blair looked mildly surprised and Don looked disgusted.

Kit shrugged Steve off, "Peggy Carter was a fantastic lady. She helped Steve so much, it was the least I could do to honor that part of my husband and his life."

Steve's cheeks turned faintly pink, and he squeezed Kit's shoulder.

"Well, it is a lovely name," Blair said, looking down at her granddaughter.

"Can I hold her?" Carter said, standing up. Blair passed the baby off and Carter brought her over to Bucky.

"Look how beautiful she is," Carter fawned over the blonde infant.

Bucky reached out to stroke one of Sarah's tiny feet, "She looks just like her mom. Thank God."

Steve snorted, "You said that about Liam, and look at him now. Spitting image of me."

Bucky grinned, "There's still enough Kit in him to make sure he's cute."

Liam looked up form the stuffed hydra toy he'd taken from Sarah's gift, "I'm handsome. That's what Aunt Pep and Aunt Betty say."

Steve ruffled his hair, "Yeah, kid, you're handsome. Just like your old man."

"Emphasis on old," Don muttered quietly under his breath.

"Did you say something, dear?' Blair said, resting her hand on Don's forearm.

Don coughed, "Said I'm cold. I'm gonna head back to the hotel. I'll see you later, Katie."

He elbowed his way past Steve and kissed Kit on the cheek.

She frowned, "Okay, bye dad. Take care of yourself."

Blair sighed, "I'd better go with him. I don't like him walking around the city by himself."

She kissed Kit's cheek, gave Steve a hug, and smothered Liam's face in kisses.

"I'll by back either tomorrow or later, depending on how your dad is feeling," she waved as she left the room.

Bucky tapped Carter's hip, "How about we go grab some food or something, and give these guys a chance to bond?"

Carter nodded, "Here's the beautiful Miss Sarah," she said, handing Sarah back to Kit.

Bucky grabbed her hand and they promised to come back in a few minutes to help organize the flow of super powered crazies that would be coming soon.

"Hey, Liam," Steve said from the chair, "You know, Sarah wanted to get you a present."

Liam raised his eyebrows, "She's a baby. She can't buy presents!"

Kit laughed, adjusting Sarah as she breastfed, "Babies can talk to their mommies and daddies. She told us what she wanted to get you and Daddy bought it."

"What is it?" Liam looked excited now.

"Come here and I'll give it to you," Steve said, holding up the rectangular package.

Liam practically fell off the bed and tripped over his feet in his haste to get to his dad.

Unwrapping the box, he found Hulkbuster armor for his Iron Man action figure.

"WHOA! This is so cool!" Liam exclaimed, running back over to the bed, "Mommy! Look! Sarah's the bestest sister."

Kit smiled happily, "I'm glad you think so. She thinks you're the best brother."

Liam suddenly looked bashful, "Can I give her a kiss?"

Kit's eyes welled with tears. She nodded, not trusting her voice.

Steve lifted Liam by the waist, and looked on as the five-year-old carefully kissed his sister's forehead.

"We did good," Kit whispered, a tear slipping down her cheek.

Steve nodded, "Really good. I never thought I'd get this."

"Well, you deserve it, Captain," Kit whispered back.

Steve leaned over and kissed her softly, "Thank you."

"It's a good thing you like kids," Carter said around a mouthful of salad, "The Tower's brimming with them."

"And Natasha and Clint are adding to it within a month or so," Bucky pointed out, taking a huge bit of his burrito.

"What about you?" Carter's tone tried for nonchalance, but didn't quite manage it.

"What do you mean?" Bucky stuttered, playing dumb.

Carter looked Bucky in the eyes, "You ever going to add to the chaos?"

Bucky grinned at her, "I dunno. Maybe if I find the right dame."

Carter narrowed her eyes good-naturedly, "If you find a girl that lets you call her 'dame', you'd better keep her."

Bucky nudged her foot with his, "I'll keep that in mind."

Carter checked her watch; they'd been gone for almost half an hour, it was probably time to get back.

Brushing off her hands, she stood up, "Come on, dreamboat. The family's probably all here."

"Dreamboat?" Bucky laughed, "I haven't heard that word since before the war. Wait a second, did you Google 40s slang?"

Carter blushed, but laughed, "I'm not copping to anything, daddy-o."

Bucky wrapped an arm around her waist, "That's not 40s slang, doll."

"Shut up," Carter pushed at his chest with her free hand, "I'm not an old person."

"Nah, you're just a gorgeous dame that's got the hots for an old geezer," Bucky laughed, pulling her in for a kiss.

"I hate you," Carter laughed.

"Love you too."

A/N: *phew* here she is, the last chapter in this little story. Y'all can thank JuliaAurelia for her gentle pushing, otherwise I would not have gotten this chapter done as fast as I did. I feel so rotten for making you guys wait so long for these chapters.

I don't have any multi-chaps planned for this universe right now. So all you're going to get are oneshot updates in "Growing Up Super" for a while. as usual, I'm open to prompts and suggestions and what not.

I'm not overly thrilled with this one. I do like most of it. I just feel like it got weird in the middle. I don't know. Maybe I've been looking at it for too long.

Um…other than that I really don't have much to say. It's been a long week and I'm kind of looking forward to vegging out in front of the TV. So please, drop me a review, I really love them =)
