Let me bless your day with Steve laughing at Y/N drunk ^ This is one of my favorite chapters, I hope you enjoy it.

🔹️

You woke up with a terrible headache and hurried to the bathroom, you probably drank more than you could.

You looked around, you were at your apartment...But how did you get there? Did someone call a taxi? Did Stark discover you were at the party? You couldn't remember. You heard a horn outside, you looked through the curtains. Happy was waiting for you outside.

"Oh shoot! I must be late!"

You dressed fast, putting a formal shirt and pants, you took your bag and hurried downstairs.

-Hey Y/N, woke up late today-Manuel gave something to you- Muffin?- He said as you arrived at the bakery.

-You're an angel Manuel, thanks!- You said grabbing the muffin.

-Y/N! Are you okay? Last night you were weird.- Sarah said.

-Weird?- You asked.

-Yeah, you know- He made a drunk signal- A little.

-Oh my God. Sorry.

-No need to be. Are you okay?

-Yeah, a little headache but nothing major.

-Good thing Captain America and The Winter Soldier were here to help you!- Sarah said happy

-They what?- You gasped.

-They brought you home yesterday, don't you remember?

Some flashbacks of last night appeared in your head:

-Manuel I'm home!- you said loudly.

-Y/N?- Manuel arrived- Oh...- He chuckled

-I can't believe she got drunk so fast, we didn't know she was that weak, sorry- Bucky said while he and Steve held you with their arms around you.

Just then Manuel noticed the two man with you.

-Oh my God you are...I mean, thank you, thanks for bringing her home.

-It was the right thing to do after we said for her to drink.- Steve said

-You are...?- Bucky asked staring at Manuel.

-I'm her friend. She lives upstairs my bakery- He pointed to the second floor.

-Just a friend?- Bucky asked.

-Yes, she's like family.- Just then Sarah came running.- Sarah, why aren't you sleeping?

-Who is she?- Steve asked.

-My daughter.

-So you're married.- Bucky said smiling, Steve pushed him lightly.

-No, I'm a widower.

-Oh, sorry for your loss.- Bucky felt guilty for his sudden happiness.

-It's alright.- Manuel looked at you- Now we need to take this girl upstairs.

-Oh my God! Captain America! And The Winter Soldier!- Sarah said excited.

-Sarah not now.- He said.

-But dad-

-We need to take care of Y/N.

-Okay...But can you please take a picture with me?- She made a cute face.

-Sure.-Steve replied kindly.

Sarah came with her phone, stayed in front of you, and took a selfie.

-Say Cheese!

-Cheese- You, Steve and Bucky replied, and after that you fainted.

🔹️

She showed you the picture, both of your arms around Bucky and steve, and their hand on your waist trying to keep you on your feet, while their other hands held your hands. They both smiling and you were there, unconscious. Sarah was there, at the front, taking the picture and making a sign peace smiling, radiant. That picture was a mix between disaster and perfection at the same time.

-Oh my God.-You said horrified.

-It was very funny- She said.

-After that I took you upstairs and they said goodbye and left.-Manuel added.

-I'm so embarrassed.

-They were very kind to bring you home.

-Yes they were.- You said grateful but regretful at the same time.- I have to go, thanks for last night Manuel, see you guys later.

-Don't worry, have a good day Y/N.

-Have a good day Y/N! And tell the soldier and the captain I said hi!

You hurried to the limo.

-What took you so long?- Happy said as you entered without looking at you and staring at the path driving.

-Sorry!

-Stark is waiting for you at his office, go there whem we get there.- He said with his eyes on the road

-Got it

He drived to Stark's tower.

🔹️

As you arrived you ran towards the stairs. But someone stopped you.

-Y/N!- You turned to see Bucky.- I thought you weren't coming.

-Sorry, I lost the time and...- You were saying but he was laughing.

-And you are with a terrible headache I guess.

-Yes. By the way, thank you and sorry, Manuel told me what you guys did. Thank you. Really. It must've been annoying.

-Don't apologize, it was funny to watch.- He chuckled, you continued serious- But really, no need to say sorry.

-Thank you.- You then stopped.- Mr. Barnes-

-We drank together, call me Bucky.

-Bucky...-you fixed the sentence.- Did I do something weird last night? Except from the part you guys arrived at my house.

Bucky's POV

The flashbacks came then.

You and Y/N were at the edge of the balcony. Still drinking.

-Easy there- you said taking the bottle of her hands.

-Ok mom!- She mocked

-I thought I was your boss?

-Nah.

-You really are something Y/N.- You looked at the landscape. The thousends of buildings lightning the night.

-Thank you.- She said breaking the silence without looking at you.

-For what?

-The stairs, the ice, the escape. Just...Thank you.

-It was nothing.

-But for me it was. It meant a lot.-She made a pause- I'm not really used to receive help. I always try to refuse. New York is a wild place, you don't find generous people everyday.

-Did you just call me generous?

-You heard what I said.- She turned to you- Since I was little I had to rely on myself. So, when I receive help from someone it's...Strange, but good too. So thank you.

You nodded in agreement.

-This night was very nice. Good drinks- You showed a the bottle in your hand- Good decoration- You pointed back to the salon and she smiled- And good company- You looked at her.

-I couldn't have said better- she agreed and took a bottle- Cheers for the best company in this party.

-Let's cheer but...- You took the bottle from her hands again- Enough drinks.

She chuckled.

After some time she place her head on your shoulder.

-It was very nice to meet you Bucky.

You looked at her surprised.

-I...Liked to meet you too.- You stutttered.  But she didn't reply. You then noticed she fell asleep.

You looked at her face lightned by the moonlight. She was pretty, with unique traces, but her personality was even better.

You got closer,without waking her up, until there were a very, very close distance between you two, almost touching your lips.

-Hey Bucky! I was looking for you!- Bruce said making Y/N wake up, you aparted from her.- Oh, did I interrupt something?

-Oh shit, I fell asleep- She said. Did she just swear? That whole time she has been so polite, it was funny see her like that.

-No you didn't Banner.-You said but in reality he did.

-Steve is looking for you two, he said you disappeared and left him there.

-What a drama queen. Let's go see him then.

You helped Y/N out of the edge and walked back to the party.

🔹️

-Bucky? Bucky? Are you okay?

You got out of the reminisces of last night.

-Hm, yeah, don't worry, nothing weird happened. Not when you were with me.

She sighed in relieve.

-At least that.

You looked down, then noticed her blouse, her bra showing a little.

-Um...

-What?- She noticed you staring- What are you looking at?

-Your, um, - You gesticulated nervous- The button of your shirt. It's open...

She looked down and gasped.

-Oh God! I was in such a hurry that I didn't see-- She quickly closed the button, letting everything covered.- Thanks, you are a life saver.

-Literally- You joked to avoid how nervous you were.

She chuckled.

-Are you alright? You look kind of red, do you have a fever?

-What? I...I don't know...Maybe, yeah, probably it, oh did you hear that?- You created a lame excuse- I think someone called me, I have to go.

-I need to talk with Stark too, then see you later!

-Yeah, later.

🔹️

Y/N's POV

You arrived in front of Stark's office, you took a deep breath before knocking at the door.

-Come in.-He said and you entered.

-You wanted to talk with me?-You asked.

-Yes, I wanted to talk about last night.

You felt anxious.

-Good job. You impressed me pizza.

You felt relieved. Wait, pizza?

-Excuse me?

-Oh yeah, you drank a lot, probably don't remember.

-Wait, you knew I was there?

-Of course I did, we even celebrated together.

"What???" Your thoughts ran wild.

-Allow me to refresh your memory.

Flashback

Last Friday Night cover by Olivia Kupper Harris playing (see video at the beginning of the chapter)

You were chatting with Steve when Stark came.

-I thought you were at the reception?-He said ironically

-Oh damn!- You gasped.

-Language- Steve adverted.

-No problem Y/N, you did a good job. You can enjoy the party.

-Really? You're not going to scold me?

-No, it's night to good to fight.

-Thanks Mr.Stark.

-Captain polite is teaching you manners?- He teased.

-Very funny- Steve retorted

-You look quite sober Y/N. Don't be shy, you deserve to free yourself a little.

-I think she drank enough already Tony.

-Hey grandpa, let her have fun, I should be the boring boss here, and look at you. Bartender, a gin for the girl.

-Y/N you don't need to drink.

-It's okay! I can handle it!- You said.

Steve gave Stark an angry look wich the other laughed at.

You drank again, and again, and again.

-Okay girl, better stop, I don't want you to die on your first day.- Tony said.

-Fiiiinee.- You said going to the dance floor.

*this part Tony doesn't tell you*

-Bucky's going to be pissed with you.- Steve said

-Why? He is her older brother or what? And what is he going to do? Oh no better- he made a surprise face- YOU are pissed.

-Why would I?

-I don't know Rogers, are you hitting on my assistant?

-What are you talking about? I just met her!

-Is that a problem?

-You date people you just met?

-We are on the 21st Century old man. A hookup is normal now.

-I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

-And I'll pretend she's not your type.

-I didn't--

-She's polite, smart, joyful and pretty.

-That means nothing.

-You looked very interested at your conversation with her before I arrived.

-I-I...Tony stop okay?

-Got you there.

-I think Bucky likes her.-he took a sip of his drink and both observed Y/N at the dance floor, almost falling from how drunk she was.

He looked surprised.

-Tin arm likes her? That's why he'll be pissed?

Steve nodded.

-You're an idiot you know.

-What?

-You are giving a nice girl to your friend.

-I'm not giving, she's not mine.

-You understood what I said.

-I don't want to fall in love.

-One day you'll have to move on from Carter.

-I...I don't think I'll be ready for that.

Tony looked at him for a moment.

-Alright, take your time. But- He looked at you at the dance floor- If Bucky wants to sleep with her tonight, I don't know, do it, but no dating.

-What? Why?

-She just arrived. She'll work with us soon, that can...Be a distraction for her at work.

-Us?

-She works for the avengers too.

-She didn't say so.

-She's too kind to bother. And I'll tell all the details tomorrow in a meeting between us the avengers. Now, excuse me grandpa- He got up from his chair- I have a party to enjoy.

-Go ahead...son.- Steve joked

-Ew, you really fit as a grandpa.

He went to the dance floor and left Steve there.

*From now on, Tony Tells you*

You were dancing at the dance floor, Bucky watching from distance, Stark approached you.

-Hey.

-Hey Mr Stark!

-Good moves kid.

-Thanks.-You spinned like an idiot.

-I've got to tell you something.

-Sure.

-Since you just started at this job, I need you to give full commitment to it, alright?

-Of course!

-That means, that you shouldn't date for now. Is it okay?

-Yeah.

-Really?

-Yeah, I'm not interested in dating.

He looked at you quite surprised but glad at the same time.

-That was easier than I expected. Okay... thanks.

- No problema boss!

Then someone yelled:

-I dare you to lift my hammer!- It was Thor.

-Every party he does that...God...-Tony sighed.

-Have you ever lifted it?- You asked curious.

-No, no one can, except Vision.

-That looks so cool.

-Go ahead, try, Thor loves to see people failing.

You went there excited.

Bruce Banner tried, no success, then Black Widow, even Bucky, no one could.

-Hello there, you are?-The tall, blonde and strong man asked.

-Y/N Y/L/N, Mr.Stark's new assistant.

-Oh, there she goes!- Pepper said happy.

-I'm Thor Odinson, God Of Thunder. Good luck.

-Sure Mr...Odinson? Or thunder?

-Hm...Mr.Thunder sounds quite cool.-He laughed.

-Then, Mr.Thunder.

You tried to pull the hammer, it seemed like it was glued to the ground. Impossible to even move.

-Too bad Lady Y/N. Maybe next time. Stark! Want to try again?

-Fine, someone bring my suit.

He put the iron suit and tried to lift, his friend, James, in another suit, tried too. But both of them failed.

Steve was next to you.

-Are you going to try?-You asked.

-Me? Oh no, I'm not interested.-He answered modest.

-I'm sure you could lift it.

-No, I'm not a God, I couldn't.

-Open space!- Someone said- The only man who can lift this hammer has arrived.- It was Wanda Maximoff, and behind her Vision.

-Not really man but...-Her partner spoke.

Vision got close to the hammer, and with only two fingers lifted it, throwed in the air, cacthed and gave to Thor.

Thor looked embarrassed.

-Yeah, good one...

Wanda laughed and held Vision's hand. They were so cute.

-Wow they are so cute together.- You muttered.

-Thank you.- Vision said to you.

-Wait you listened to that?-You turned to them surprised.

-Sorry, couldn't help but overhear miss.

-Thank you- Wanda smiled.- By the way your party is lovely.

-Thank you.- You blushed.

🔹️

-What is a nice Midgardian party game?- Thor asked.

-I don't know. Truth or dare?- Hawkeye asked.

-No, we're not playing that- Black Widow retorted.

-What about the Pizza Challenge?- You suggested and they all looked at you.

The guests were already gone. There were just you, the Avengers, Pepper and James.

-Pizza?- Bucky asked.

-Yeah, where I worked we had this contest you paid 20 dollars to participate, where, who ate a whole pizza in 30 seconds gained it for free.

-But you can't even enjoy the pizza like that- Bruce said.

-That's the point, the owner gains money.- Tony said.- Let's make it like that, everyone who participate put 10 dollars in the table, the one who wins, receive all the money.

-Tony...-Pepper complained.

-It'll be fun- He retorted

The deal was made. Competing with you, were, Thor, Bruce and Tony.

-In your marks- Pepper started.-Ready...- you stayed calm- Set....Go!

You started, making your old techniques with rolls. Bruce was eating any way possible, but he wasn't as fast as he would be if he were Hulk. Tony saw your method and tried to copy it. Thor was very good at it though and was making you have quite a hard time trying to keep  up with him.

At 14 seconds you finished.

-And we have a winner!- Pepper exclaimed happy, giving you the money and you put on your purse.

-Not fair Y/N, you definetly have experience on that.- Black widow said impressed.

-I have to admit, I do. My boss asked for me to compete, so we wouldn't give free pizzas.

Bruce was almost dying:

-How can someone eat like that?-He spoke trying to recover himself.

-Haha, someone give Bruce some water- Hawkeye said laughing.

-So you're a pizza eater- Tony joked.

-Secret hability.

-Ha, good one Pizza. Ah, that's it, Pizza, your nickname, congratulations.

Everybody laughed.

-Pizza really?-You asked embarrassed.

-Yup. Deal with it.

-You were pretty good there.- Pepper came.

-Thanks.

-Not just the pizza thing, the party itself. Good job Y/N. I'm relieved that you'll be capable of handling this job.- She tapped your shoulder.

-Thanks Miss Potts.

-And I loved that cake, thanks.

-You're welcome.- You both smiled.

-Pepper come dance with me!- Tony screamed from the dance floor.

-See you then.-She replied going after him.

-See you.

🔹️

-I did all that?- You said still schocked from what he told you.

-It was nice, don't worry, it showed you have personality- He laughed- And a good stomach.- But that's not why I called you.

-What was then?

-Yesterday I signed contract with 3 Italian industries, all thanks to your decorations and my charm.

-That's great!

-I need you to organize contracts, you know paperwork stuff.

-Alright, I can do that.

-Follow me.

You both went to the elevator. You were heading to the stairs when he stopped you.

-Come on.- He pointed to inside the elevator.

-Can I...?

-As I said. You impressed me and deserved it. Congratulations, now you can use the elevator.

-Just a second please. - you asked politely then turned around and screamed jumping -YESSS !

You recomposed yourself and went to the elevator, Stark laughing.

At your office, he said everything you should do and before he left he said:

-Oh, Y/N, one more thing.

-Yes?

-The dating thing, I was serious, I hope you didn't just agree because you were drunk.

-No, I know. And as I said, I'm not interested in dating.

-Good. I'll leave you to your job then.

-Alright, have a good day Mr.Stark.

-You too Pizza.

🔹️

2 hours later someone knocked at your door. You didn't hear at first, immersed at the paperwork, then the person opened the door and you screamed scared.

-AHHH!- you said throwing a file at the random person's face.

Then you saw who it was. Steve.

-Oh my God! Sorry Mr.Rogers!-You apologized.

-It's fine - He chuckled- Good reflexes by the way- He put the file on your desk again.

-Are you looking for something?

-Ah, yeah, I was looking for Tony but couldn't find him, I thought he could be here. He doesn't answer the phone

-I'll call him.- You said and steve nodded. You called Stark.

-Hello.-He replied

-Mr. Stark, Mr.Rogers is here, he said he wanted to talk with you.

-Steve? Now? Why?

-He didn't tell me.

-I'm in a meeting now, ask him to wait 30 minutes where he is.

-Wait, shouldn't I send him to your office?

-No, I'll go to your office to talk with him, just keep him there.

You glanced at Steve, still standing by the door, looking at a bookshelf.

-What should I do until you arrive?

-I don't know Pizza, just entertain him, I don't know, he's a simple guy. Maybe make out with him.

-Very funny Mr. Stark.-You spoke ironically.

-Give him a book or...

-Or what?

-Or ask him about last night, since you can't remember shit about what happened

-I stayed alone with Steve?-You spoke almost like a whisper so the guest couldn't heat you.

-When I went to talk with you, both of you were together.

-Fine. Please come in 30 minutes.

You turned off the phone.

-So, is he coming?- Rogers asked.

-Soon, he is in a meeting, please sit.

He sat in a chair in front of your desk.

-Coffee? Tea?

-No, I'm fine, thanks.

You were nervous. What should you say? What did you do? What if you said something bad last night?

-Are you feeling better?- He asked suddenly.- You know, me and Bucky drove you home.

-Oh yes! I almost forgot, thank you, really, and sorry.-You reminded feeling guilty for not thanking sooner.

-It was the right thing to do.-He spoke with his modest tone.

You stayed silent thinking then said:

-Mr.Rogers.

-Yes?-He asked.

-Did I do something...Unusual last night?

-Unusual...

Steve's POV

Flashback from last night

-There you are! Where did you two go?- you asked as Y/N and Bucky came back.

-Just taking a break from this loud place.-Bucky said.

-I see. Bucky, Sam wanted to talk with you.

-Really? Where is he?

-With Clint, that way- You pointed.

-Thanks, I'm going to talk with him, see you later Steve, Y/N.

-So, enjoying the party?- You asked.

-Yes, It's kind of weird for me since It's been some time I don't come to one, specially a party this big. But I'm liking it so far.-She replied, now not so shy as before, probably drank with Bucky when they were out.

-Good to hear. Stark's parties are really crowded and extravagant, but the little moments are the most special.

-I agree.

-Your boyfriend doesn't mind? You being at parties?

-Boyfriend?-She asked clueless.

-Sorry, I didn't mean--

-No, it's okay. I don't have a boyfriend. I'm single.

-Really? A lady like you alone?- You were surprised.

-Why?

-You seem like a nice, uh... datable person.

-I don't know, I guess I didn't find the right guy.-She lifted her shoulder indifferent, sitting on the bench next to yours.

-And how would the right guy be?-You asked.

-Hmm....-She thought for a moment- Tall- you nodded- Strong- you smiled- Who brings me food, lots of food- you laughed- Someone who would like to kiss in the rain, read books by the fireplace and encourage me. A person who is kind and funny, but serious and fierce. A gentleman but also wild. Oh, and a dog lover, definetly.

-That's a very specific description.-you chuckled.

-What can I say, women need the best. Too bad this world doesn't have guys like that.

-Of course they exist.- You insisted.

-I don't believe you.-She kept being cetic.

-I'm tall, strong, peole say I'm a marshmellow inside, definetly a dog person, even though cats are also cute. I read a lot, specially history books, kissing in the rain is a classic, it's romantic.- She chuckled- I'm kind, I mean, I literally save people- You both laughed- See? I'm funny too, I'm a an old gentleman, and a wild lover.

-How do you know about the lover part?-She teased.

-I'm sure of it.-You bragged.

-I doubt it.- She said smirking.

-I guess I'd have to convince you then.

-How?

-Like...- You got close to her, she got close too, your lips almost touching when...

- I thought you were at the reception?- Stark came interrupting.

-Oh damn!-She swore.

-Language.- You adverted.

🔹️

-You can't beat me!- Bruce said.

-Come on, turn into green and let's see!

Stark was with his iron suit on, they both were going to duel when Pepper stopped them:

-Time to call it a night, enough Tony.

-No Pepper,I need to kick his green ass!

-I'm going to kick your iron ass!- Bruce replied.

-You too, you are drunk- Natasha pulled Bruce aside.

-I think we should all go sleep.- I said.

-Good Idea.- Clint said.

-Um...Steve?- Bucky said with Y/N leaned on his shoulder.

-What happened?

-What do you think happened? Stark happened.-He cpmplained looking at Tony.

-Just gave the kid a few drinks, nothing to worry about- Stark said.

-Oh God Tony.- Pepper exclaimed.

-Let's take her home, Bucky.-You spoke.

He nodded and you went to the hall, entering your car.

-You didn't tell me you bought a car.-he said while I was putting Y/N at the backseat.

-Where is your apartment?- I asked.

-At Litte Italy.-She muttered.

-Ok, what is the address exactly?

She fell asleep again.

-You'll have to try harder Steve.-He laughed.

-I wasn't trained for this.

-I'll drive to Little Italy, until there, try to discover the address.

After some time you tried again.

-Y/N.

-Hm mom stop!- She said sleeping.

-Y/N I'm Steve.

-Stop mom, I ...I didn't do anything...-She continued.

-Y/N, wake up.

-M-Mom don't...- She started crying.

You entered in panic, you didn't tell Bucky to distract him. She was dreaming, a nightmare actually. Tears rolled down as she pressed harder her eyes to avoid the bad feeling she had.

You shaked her to make her stop.

-What?-She woke up, her face wet by the tears.

-Y/N you...

-What am I doing here?

-We are taking you home. Where do you live?

She told the adress.

-Bucky you heard that?

-Yes, let's go.-He said.

-Are you okay?- You asked her.

-I don't know...Who are you actually?

-She's VERY drunk.-Bucky told you.

-Yes, I think she is.

-Ah, you are that man who saved me!- She said.

-Saved you? At the reception you mean?

-No! From that creepy robot...!

-Robot?

You then tried to remember. That woman who hit the robot with its arm the other day, it was her.

-You...-You muttered.

-Oh shit, I have to agree with Sarah, you are hot!-Her voice altered and she started speaking things she'd never say sober.

-What?- You laughed.- Hey stop swearing.

-Fuck, what are you going to do with me? Where the hell I am?

-Language girl!- you couldn't stop laughing.

-What is going on back there?- Bucky asked.

-She has a little dirty mouth when drunk.

She then put her hand on her mouth.

-I was joking you don't need to--

She tried to open the door.

-Bucky stop the car, I think she's not okay.

Bucky pulled over. Y/N went to a grass area.

-Should we hold her hair or something?- You asked your friend

-You suggested, then do it.-He said tapping your shoulder.

-What?

He went back to the car.

-Great...- You complained and went after Y/N. -Um hi...Are you alright?

She stopped vomiting for a moment and looked at you angry:

-What do you think?

-Stupid question...Got it...-You looked around not knowing what to do.

You held then her hair.

-Thanks....-She muttered.

-No problem...-You looked away givibg her some provacy while she let all the alcohool go in that drastic scene.

🔹️

-No nothing unusual.-You lied.

-Hm...Mr.Stark told me we were talking about something, what was it?-She asked.

-Ah, just about your...Job.- You lied

-Ah so you know I work for the Avengers.

-Yes, that's it.

-Came as fast as I could- Stark arrived.- Steve, wanted to talk?

-Um, yeah. Thanks Y/N.

-You're welcome.-She replied going back to her work.

You both walked down the hallway.

-So, what you needed to talk about?

-You know what? I don't remember now- You lied.

-Really? Steve you really are an old man, write it down to remember it next time.

-Will do. See you later.

-Bye.

Real reason, minutes before:

Moments before entering the office.

"I hope she is alright, she looked bad yesterday. Should I ask what happened?"

-AHHH!- a file hit you, it was actually a pretry strong throw coming from her, then you recovered yourself - Mr.Rogers? What are you doing here?

You tried to come up with an excuse.

-I wanted to talk with Tony but couldn't find him.

Now.

-She really is different.- You said to yourself smiling and walking through the hallways.
