Chapter 1
Steves POV
“You lost the bet Cap you have to do it.” Tony laughs at Steve.
“Can’t I just go as myself why do I have to wear the whole uniform.” Steve asks. “What even is the whole point of this.”
“The bet was for the full suit so yes you have to wear it. And the point is you lost the bet.” Tony responds as he makes himself a sandwich.
“Just do it Steve. He won’t let up you know that, and plus there will probably be a bunch of kids there I bet they will be thrilled to see Captain America.” Natasha chimes in from her spot on the couch.
“Exhacthaly.” Tony says through a mouth full of sandwich. “Want a bite?” He asks holding out the sandwich to Steve.
“Uhhh…Fine.” Steve sighs rolling his eyes at Tony. “Just text me the address and tell me when I have to do it.”
“Will do Capsicle!” Tony yells after him as he walks out of the room.
-Couple of Days Later-
Capsicle Here is the address 555 State Street it’s a place called Crossover Comics and Games they open at 10 and you are going to be there on May 7th all right
Alright Tony, does it have to be that specific day?
Yes.
“Ugh….” Steve sighs and wipes a hand down his face. “I have got to stop taking bets from Tony.”
-Saturday May 7th -
Steve Got dressed that morning in his full suit, throwing the shield over his shoulder to stick to his back he heads out of his room wondering what the day is going to bring him. Losing a bet to Tony was never a good thing, but this one has Steve confused. He had to go to some comic book store in his full uniform. Steve can only imagine that Tony is hoping that there will be some Captain America superfan there. They can get a little crazy when they see him. He’s Dealt with a few of them, and they can come on pretty strong and often don’t understand personal space, or personal hygiene. But like Natasha said there could be some kids out there as well and that is something that Steve always enjoys. Kids are some of the few people that genuinely believe in heroes and it is so amazing to encourage that.
Sighing Steve looks down at his watch checking the time and realizing it’s getting close to when it opens, he decides to head down to the garage and jumps on his bike. Heading towards the comic book shop hoping that it will be worth it in the end and not too many crazy people will be there.
(Y/N) POV
“Micah!” You yell from the other room. “Come on your Aunt Susan is gonna be there before we even leave.”
“Coming Momma!” Your little seven-year-old girl comes running out of her room with one shoe on and the other in her hand, dragging her sweatshirt behind her.
“Oh honey.” You chuckle as you see her running towards you. “Come here let me help ya out.”
“Coming” She giggles as she jumps up into your arms.
You set her up on the kitchen counter and take the shoe out of her hand. “Now where does this go.” You look at the shoe curiously. “Here maybe?” You say putting the shoe on her hand.
“No Momma not my hand.” She says giggling and kicking her feet a little.
“Oh…hmmm….” You say with a fake contemplative look on your face. “Oh, I know! It goes here, right?” You sit the shoe on her head. “Now that looks right. Yes, the shoe definitely goes right there on your noggin.”
Micah starts laughing even harder knocking the shoe off her head. “Momma nooooooo!” She giggles out. “My foot Momma my foot!” She holds up her socked foot to you. “Here Momma”
“Oh, my goodness! How silly of me. Of course, it goes on your foot.” You say as you put the shoe on her foot. “How ever did you get so smart.” You say as you kiss her on the forehead. “Now let’s see what you picked out to wear today.” You pick her up and stand her back down on the floor.
Micah puts her sweatshirt on and does a little twirl. “Do you like it Momma?” She asks as she turns once more. Wearing a pair of blue tennis shoes, a pair of black pants and her favorite Captain America shirt under her tie dye zip up.
“You look beautiful baby girl.” You say taking her hand in yours and spinning her around. “Now do you want me to do anything with your hair or do you want to leave it down.
“Can you braid it two times please?” She looks up at you with big eyes.
“Alrighty piggy tail braids coming up and then we have to head out to meet Aunt Susan, okay?”
“Yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy” She yells.
Steve’s POV
Pulling up to the store it shocked him there is a huge line of people and a big event was going on at the store. Signs all over the place saying free comic book day, and a huge line out the door. Of course, that’s why Tony picked this specific day, there are so many people here. This is going to be a long day, but at least you see a bunch of kids too that part will at least be fun. Getting of his bike he starts heading to the store. Some of the kids start getting excited tugging on their parents’ pants legs and pointing at him and waving.
Steve waves back at the children smiling and waving stopping to take some pictures with the ones who were brave enough and just talking to the ones who didn’t want to get to close. After Steve got through most of the kids outside some adults started to come up to him and started talking to him. Most were pretty nice and just told him how inspiring he was, but then there were a couple that were just what he feared.
One of them even tried to push some of the children out of the way to get to Steve. Steve politely pushed past the man to get to the children first, before turning around to talk to the guy that was in such a rush. He definitely was not smiling when he first started talking to him until he saw a little girl in a tie dye sweatshirt goes running by and jumps into someone’s arms. That reminded Steve why he was going to stay here with a smile for a little bit longer, but hopefully he would be able to get away from some of these overbearing adults.
(Y/N)s POV
“Auntie Susan Catch me!” Micah yells as she runs up to your best friend and jumps into her arms. Susan picks her up while she laughs. “We made it! I missed you!”
“I missed you too little Bug.” Susan says as she swings Micah in a circle. “We just have to tell your mom to invite me over more.”
“Aunt Susan you don’t need to be invited you have a key!” Micah says matter of factly.
“That is true Bug that is true.” She responds laughing before looking over at you. “Ohhhhh…. (Y/N) you’re here too.” She jokes.
“Hahaha yes, I am here too. I know you like Micah more than me, my baby girl stole my best friend from me.” You say dramatically holding your hand to your heart. “Anyway, you wanna go in and get our comics Bug.”
“Yes momma! And then can’t we get in that jumpy house after?” Micah asks with a big smile on her face.
“Hmmm I don’t know?” You say.
“Please?” Susan and Micah say simultaneously while using the big puppy dog eyes and quivering lip.
“Ah man you know that always works on me you two.” You say back to them. “Fine I guess you can bounce for a little bit. But then food!”
“Yay food!” They both yell, before turning to walk into the store.
Laughing you follow them in. luckily the line had died down but there was still a pretty big group of people in a bit of a semi-circle around something. Hmm… wonder what that could be. Eh, you had comics to get and a daughter that wanted to go into the bounce house. You had things to do.
