"what makes you think we won't be distracted now?" Peter said with a laugh, kissing her cheek again. "Killer Clowns from Outer Space it is. I've been dying to watch this and never want to look at it again thanks to the reviews." Peter wanted Lexi to relax, and to be comfortable, so he gently let her off his lap, so he could get up and walk towards her shoes, picking up the movie and looking over at the barefoot beauty. Walking back over to the TV, he knelt down and inserted the disc.

He then went in to the kitchen real quick to get a glass of water for both, and a bowl of popcorn. If they were having a movie night full of cuddling, there had to be some drinks and popcorn, right? Once the popcorn was ready he poured it in to the bowl, and came back in to the living room. "Alright. Let's see if I got everything." He said, sitting back down on the couch after turning off the lights. "Popcorn." He took a piece and put it in his mouth. "Check. Water." He took a sip out of the glass. "Got it... Incredibly beautiful girlfriend who is completely out of my league." He turned to Lexi and gave her a tender kiss. "Got that too." Peter said with a wink. "Alright. Let the grammy-winning movie play!" He pressed the play button on the remote, threw the blanket over them, and put an arm around Lexi to keep her close.

"You wanted to see me."

Steve Rogers stood in front of Nick Fury's desk yet again. He was leaning back, looking at the man in front of him with one eye, as if debating whether to say something or not. "I may have lost some information of the files you retrieved for me. Luckily, I downloaded all the information before I lost them..." He looked up at him again. "The last time I saw them they were around your locker..." He said very casually, giving a nod. Steve understood, giving a nod. "Thank you." Steve said, meaning it. It would be very nice to read up on what he missed on people he used to know. "You been enjoying your days off?" He asked again casually. Steve was already turned around, eager to leave to retrieve the files. "Yeah, its been good. Went to see the Statue of Liberty, ate some pie... got a new neighbor." Steve said just as casually. Why was he telling him all this? They weren't really friends... Maybe he was saying it because he was very excited that he found a woman that he felt was honest, and sweet, and beautiful inside and out.

"New neighbor? You meet the person yet?"

Steve hesitated, then nodded. "Yeah. I helped her move some boxes in." Typical Rogers, Fury thought to himself with a nod. "Glad to see you're making some new friends." Fury said to him, but not wanting Agent 13 to be too close to Rogers... He was going to have to ask her what happened on her first day under cover.

"Its so weird seeing it up close..."

"My grandpa said he fought along side him. Best man he ever met, he said."

A group of S.H.I.E.L.D. employees stood staring at the iconic uniform, clearly desk jockeys who never saw the man in action. Steve quietly walked in, smirking a bit at the sight, and them talking about the living legend. "Excuse me, guys." Steve said nicely, squeezing through the people to get to his locker. the room went quiet as Steve did his code, and opened the case. In the side shelf were a group of folders. He took them, and turned to see the people still staring at him. "You guys alright?" He asked. all nodded. "Y-yes, Cap--Sir. We just haven't seen you in person before. We're stuck in our offices..." One said with an embarrassing smile. Steve nodded. "Well you guys are the reason the missions go smoothly. I appreciate what you guys do." Steve said honestly with a nod, patting one on the back. "Keep up the good work."

Steve walked out of the elevator, to find himself hungry. He hadn't eaten all day. Still holding his folders he stepped in to the cafeteria, only stopping in to get something then going back home to do some reading... "Hey, Steve!" yelled a familiar voice. Black Widow, or Natashia, called his name. He worked with her on a lot of missions, and although she was a great spy, he didn't really know yet if she had her morals in the right place. There were many times when they would argue on how they should complete a step in the plan... He was also Steve's second kiss. it meant nothing to him, and nothing to her. They were undercover, and to not be spotted, she planted a kiss on him. He was caught off guard, and therefore didn't really know how to kiss back... Natashia would often tease him about it, saying he "kissed like 90 year old man"... that didn't really help his confidence in dating.

As he turned around to say hi he felt someone bump in to him, and the tray went down to the floor. He immediately sank below the crowd to help the person. "I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking an-- Oh... I'm so sorry Captain." The woman said, the last part a bit flirty. "It's no problem, I shouldn't have been standing in the middle of everything." Steve said with a smile, then looking back down at the mess when he realized the look he gave him. He had no interest in the woman.... The only girl he could think about (besides Peggy) was Sharon, and he wasn't planning on seeing her here any time soon.

He stood up, more eager to leave than ever, not really caring that Black Widow called for him. She did have his personal number, after all (She hacked in to S.H.I.E.L.D. to get it... it was a bet her and Stark had). He grabbed a couple of bagels, and quickly made his way out of the cafeteria, folders still with him, he climbed on his motorcycle and drove back to his apartment.

Many people never understood Peter. And to be honest, he didn't think that there will ever be a person who understands what he's truly gone through. He can't remember what his parents looked like from memory. He doesn't know what the gentle touch of a mother feels like, he doesn't even remember their voices.... and he fears the day when he can't remember Uncle Ben's struggle to be a dad to him. Through all the humiliation and torture at school, Uncle Ben would do his best to make Peter feel better. Telling him stories, working on photographs, doing anything to make Peter feel human, and not a freak... But he was gone. Spider-Man had left him with so many cuts and scars, and the huge sense of responsibility... But Lexi Rogers was someone who tried to understand him. Who makes him feel more than human, and takes away all the scars and fears...

Peter's arms went to her waist, his eyes closed, he gently rubbed his nose against hers, letting out a low exhale of breath. "And I love you, Lexi Rogers." Peter said gently. "More than a lyric loves a melody." He kissed her cheek. "More than bees love honey." A kiss to her neck. "And more than all the 'I love you's' ever said, whispered, or thought combined." Peter then kissed her soft lips.

"I know this neighborhood. I got beat up in that alley.... And that parking lot.... And behind that diner." The frail and weak Steve Rogers said, pointing through the taxi cab window.

"Did you have something against running away?" The british accent asked, her eyes examining the young soon-to-be hero

"You start running they'll never let you stop. You stand up, push back. Can't say no forever, right?" Steve asked, looking over at her then immediately looking down at his feet.

"I know a little of what that's like. To have every door shut in your face." Agent Peggy Carter said softly.

"I guess I just don't why you'd wanna join the army if you're a beautiful dame. Or a beautiful...a woman. An agent, not a dame! You are beautiful, but..." Steve was helpless, but thankfully he was cut off by the beautiful woman.

"You have no idea how to talk to a woman, do you?" Her eyes showed a little bit of interest.

"This is the longers conversation I've had with one. Women aren't exactly lining up to dance with a guy they might step on." Steve shrugged, looking back out the window

"You must have danced?"

"Well, asking a woman to dance always seems so terrifying. And the past few year just didn't seem to matter that much. Figured I'd wait."

"For what?"

Steve Rogers looked back over at her. "The right partner."

Steve woke up like he always did. In a cold sweat, usually thinking of the few seconds he had talking to Peggy. That was the last thing he remembered before waking up after all. He sat up in his quiet apartment, then started his morning with a lap around Manhattan. When he returned he took his shower, did his hair neatly, and did a lot of thinking about Sharon. She was perfect. How she talked, walked, laughed, went close to him... Steve had many priorities such as protecting the world, fighting bad guys, and what's good and what's wrong... girls weren't really his main priority because most of his life he was usually laughed at by them, and he wasn't a fan of dating a ton of people. He much preferred the "right partner."

Then something vibrated. Steve was confused for a second before he realized that it was the cell phone Tony Stark gave him a few months ago. He didn't get much calls, but it was there if Fury or any other Avengers needed to get a hold of him. It was a text from Tony himself. "Banner's office. Emergency. NOW." That was all steve needed. He grabbed his iconic shield, and ran for the door.

Walking in to the S.H.I.E.L.D. HQ in New York was interesting. Everyone here recognized him, but either people were formal and treated him like a soldier with a small nod and sometimes a salute, and others would stop in their tracks, staring at the legend. Steve would give a smile, or nod in return, but he wasn't really in the talking mood. He charged in to the elevator. "Welcome, Rogers; Steve. Please say the level you want to go to." The female voice said.

Tony Stark walked in to Doctor Bruce Banner's lab. "Hey, big guy." Stark said. "And hello Miss Carter." He called out, noticing her in the window. Tony wore a tight athletic shirt, his blue arc reactor shining through the shirt. He also wore black cargo pants, and some comfortable running shoes. His hair was messy, but looked perfect, and his beard was trimmed in the fancy fashion it always was. He knew who Agent 13 really was, only because he hacked in to the part of S.H.I.E.L.D. (was it that much of a surprise? He was a tech genius." Sorry to interrupt you but... I need your help with something. Tony casually picked up a pointy thing, and gently poked Bruce. He flinched, and looked up at him. "Sorry. Couldn't resist." Tony smirked.

"What do you need, my friend?" Bruce asked with a sigh, taking off his glasses, and looking over at him, his arms crossed. Both Tony and Bruce were geniuses, and got along rather well when tony wasn't trying to piss Bruce off to see the other side of him... "I need to use some of your work space to run a quick experiment on our golden soldier boy's blood... Don't ask. It'll be revealed later." Tony said before Bruce could ask why.

"Wh-- fine, sure... just don't piss off the guy. He's a good man."

"yeah yeah yeah... heard nothing but praise about him from my dad." Tony muttered, getting a shot and vial ready to collect Steve's blood."

Steve burst in to the room. "I'm here! What's wrong? Is he alright?" Steve asked, his shield in his hand. "What? Oh, yes. We're all fine." Tony said as if he forgot what he texted Steve. "But... you text messaged me..." Steve began, but was stopped when he felt a needle go in to his arm. "It was an emergency. I needed a blood sample of a... 'perfect human' to run a few tests for something. No, i'm not turning in to a mass scientist."

"hey, Steve." Doctor Banner said with a smile, and a look of apology. "Bruce. I didn't know you were here right now." Steve said, giving a glare at Tony. "Ah, I got in earlier yesterday. Had some things to work on, and I have Agent 13 helping me." Steve nodded, and gave another glare to Tony as he walked off with a vial full of his blood. "What's the great doctor working on this time?"

"Oh, just sampling some of the alien tissue we collected from the Battle... It needs someone whose really calm and collected, and has a steady hand when testing them. She's doing excellent." Bruce explained. "Oh... I see. Well, if that's all you need me for, Stark--" Steve began, but was cut off

"Oh, yeah. Nick Fury wants to see you. Said something about some files on a... ah... what's her name... Peg--" tony said while looking at the blood sample through a microscope

"I'm on it." Steve cut him off, not wanting him to say her name, or to embarrass himself. "Well, Doctor Banner, and Agent 13, keep up the good work. I'll see you guys later."

and with that, Captain America was off for Director Fury's office.

"Eh, Fair enough." Peter said when she asked when she doesn't make herself at home, and he did not mind one bit as she excused herself to change in to pajamas. When she stepped out, it was confirmed that although the catwoman outfit was very appealing, it would never ever ever beat Lexi Roger's natural beauty. He kissed her just as passionately, the feel of her hand was very nice on his cheek. "Of course... I'll get a blanket." Peter stated as she walked up the stairs, Peter lost in the scene of watching her, but snapping out of it. He went to a closet in the hall, and pulled out a nice warm blanket. Perfect for a night of cuddling. He tossed it on the couch, turned on the TV, and before she came down the stairs he put his head in his hands. He was very tired but very glad he was going to be with the woman he loved, that also happened to be his partner in crime fighting, and his best friend. He rubbed his eyes, and leaned back on the couch, patiently waiting for Lexi to walk down the stairs.

Steve's mind went crazy when her head rested on his shoulder, and her hand went to his knee. It was amazing how much a single touch could do to someone. He leaned a bit over to smell her sweet shampoo... but he wasn't going to be a creep. He wasn't going to say some lame predictable move and kiss her. He wasn't going to just smell her hair either... He was a soldier. A man of respect, and honor. He wasn't going to force her to do anything, or make her feel uncomfortable, or anything like that. "sadly only a certain few can have the special Steve Rogers tour." Steve said. "And I was more than happy to have my first and only tour with an equally amazing individual." He said with a nod.

The movie continued, and fifteen minutes passed. Steve eagerly jumped up to help her with the pie. It smelled and looked like heaven. Steve also make a quick run to his apartment to get some vanilla ice cream: a true classic and amazing side to the dish. to say the least, it was easily the best apple pie he had had. Much better than the one he got at that local café. Steve respectively had a couple more slices (He was a big guy, he had to eat!), they got back in to their comfortable positions, and they finished the movie, with Steve only stopping to ask a couple questions.

He collected his movies, and his jacket. It wasn't that late, but if they were to wake up early tomorrow, it wouldn't be easy. "Thank you very much for spending the day with me, making me the best apple pie I have ever had, and clearing up some confusion I had with this movie." Steve said with a meaningful smile. "I had a great time... probably the best I have had in a long time." He said honestly. He didn't really know how to say goodbye. He was new to the dating game. "Goodnight, and... if you need help with anything, or need directions anywhere, or... just want to say hi, I'll be just across the hall."

Spider-Man: Childhood Friends (Jones Sparrow and EasilyAmused)

Peter didn't want to let her swing by herself, but he knew that she would be mad that he was guarding her so much... He landed on the side of his house, sliding open his window and slipping in right after catching a glimpse of Lexi grabbing her things. He quickly undressed in his suit, throwing it in a hamper and shoving clothes on top of it. He needed to get that thing cleaned out before he went out again... He changed in to a loose shirt, some pajama pants, and hearing Aunt May walk down the hall, he leapt to his desk and pretended to work on homework. "Peter, dear?" She asked knocking. She poked her head in, looking at Peter. "Are you alright?" she asked. Peter got up and hugged her tight. "Yeah.. yeah, i'm fine... How are you, you alright? Better than ever?" Peter asked.

Aunt May's face seemed very confused, but she gave a laugh and nod. "Yes, i'm alright... I was just telling you I was going to bed..."

Peter nodded. "Alright, I got most of my homework done, but Lex is coming over to help me out with the last few questions, and she might crash downstairs on the couch." Peter said with a nod. "That's fine, dear... just don't be too loud... and don't do anything stupid." She warned him. Man, if she only knew that he swung around New York in tights stopping crime... Peter nodded and smiled at her, and closed his door. Peter ran a hand through his hair, letting out a long breath. He's been through so much tonight. Finding out that his girlfriend now has super powers, he found out what he was truly afraid of, and experienced the feeling of losing everyone and thing... He didn't want those memories. He deserved a nice night with his beautiful girlfriend, right?

Just then he heard the knock on his door. He leapt down the stairs, and opened it to see the woman he fell in love with. Yeah. He deserved a nice night with his absolutely gorgeous girlfriend. "Hey, come on in, make yourself at home." He said with a famous Peter Parker grin.

Spider-Man: Childhood Friends (Jones Sparrow and EasilyAmused)

Peter listened to her... He had no idea what she saw, and he had no intention of making her tell him. He just held her, and let her cry (although it broke his heart, he knew there wouldn't be much he could do). "I'm not going anywhere... and with us two out there, neither is the city." Peter said with confidence. "If you keep your morals straight, and don't give in to whatever these crooks you face did, you'll be alright..." Then there was a small pause. "And I know you'll protect me, and I think you already know that i'll do anything to protect you...But if i'm in a situation where there is no way to save me... save yourself." He knew it was rather blunt, but it was true. He didn't want her to risk her life in an attempt to save his... If there was a way that she could see that could save both, then he wouldn't mind... but iff she sacrificed herself for him, he would feel incredibly guilty...

"I know it was a tough first night in the town... but I think you and I deserve some rest. Maybe a blanket and a movie at my place or yours." He said with a soft smile, gently lifting her head from his chest, and putting his forehead on hers. He had no intention of leaving or losing this girl. She was stuck with him for hopefully the rest of his life.

Captain America and Agent 13 (Jones Sparrow and EasilyAmused)

Steve was frozen in ice for 70 years, but when Sharon left the couch, it felt like he was frozen for 70 more. He tried his best to keep watching the movie, but turned his head when she started to laugh. When she took of the glasses her eyes seemed much more amazing and lively... as if she would much prefer to have the glasses off... He wasn't saying that she didn't look beautiful with them on. She could wear anything and he would be head over heels for her... She said that it would be fifteen more minutes until the dessert would be ready. He wasn't going to complain. She spent the day with him in the cold weather, watched a movie, and made him dessert. He was grateful that she was wiling to spend time with an old soldier, and he hoped he was doing a good job at keeping her happy with how the day was going.

Sharon came back to the couch, and Steve was very glad that she went back to her position of leaning on him. His hand gently rested around her yet again. "You know, you're much better than my last neighbors... They not once offered me apple pie, or accepted my invite to watch this movie." Steve said jokingly, his hand slowly rubbing her side again, not really realizing that he did so. "Most people left after the Battle... but I hope that the tour today showed you that moving here isn't too bad..." Steve said, giving another smile.

Spider-Man: Childhood Friends (Jones Sparrow and EasilyAmused)

Peter had never been so ready to leave a place before. Peter eventually found the place to turn on the lights, dragged Mysterio out of the archways and hung him on a street light post in a cocoon, and took Lexi somewhere that he rather now enjoyed. Peter decided to carry Lexi because she was so shaken up from Mysterio (he was too, but he wanted to stay strong for his girlfriend... its a boyfriend thing), and he still had to be that manly man from earlier that night. He landed lightly on Lexi's rooftop, and then embracing Lexi again in his arms. "You saw those things too, right? The things your fear the most..." He asked, one hand leaving her body to lift off his mask, then going right back to her.

"All those things you saw... That's what you're fighting. To make sure none of that happens to you, or anyone..." Peter said gently, his own nightmares coming back to him... He prayed he would never have to be in a situation where he had to save only one person... or to lose Lexi, or Aunt may... He was so tired of losing people in his life...
