The unexpected reunion

Daisy and Steve called each other everyday before they went to bed and met up as much as they could between whatever the Avengers needed to do and Daisy's missions, which was only about 4 times.

They both agreed that they should keep their relationship to themselves until otherwise. And if they ever meet up in public or in front of anyone they know, they will act like they never met each other before, and it will be like it was the first time they ever met.

Steve was in his apartment making dinner when he heard his phone ring.

"Hey Steve," Someone said into his phone.

"Daisy?" Steve asked.

Daisy was the last person he expected, he thought it would probably be Nat asking how he was doing or Sam calling to annoy him.

To say Steve was surprised was the least, he tried calling a lot of times over the past few weeks, but he was always jumped to voicemail, he figured she was dealing with something.

And he was right, because Daisy called Steve out of nowhere and wanted to get from the base.

"Where are you right now? Can I come to you? I need a place to lay low." Steve heard his girlfriend quickly saying on the other side of the phone.

Steve was currently living in a small apartment in Brooklyn that belonged to Daisy, they met up after he left Wakanda and Daisy was nice enough to offer up her apartment to him. That was also the last time he saw her.

Sam and the others are still stuck in the raft, Natasha is at god knows where, probably on the run and Bucky was left in Wakanda to help with his deprogramming.

Steve was still currently trying to find a way to break the others out of the underwater prison.

"Your apartment, the one in Brooklyn." Steve answered, "Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Daisy brushed it off, " I get there as fast as I can."

"Do you need me to pick you up?" Steve, being the gentleman he is immediately asked.

"Nah, I'll be fine." Daisy replied, "Love you."

"Be safe, love you too!" Steve returned.

The only thought in Daisy's head was that she has to leave the base. She was feeling so many things at once, angry, confused, sad, guilty. She just couldn't understand how everyone could just forgive her like that, so she left.

It was almost midnight until Steve heard a knock on his door. Knowing it was Daisy he opened it, before he could say anything he was engulfed in a hug by his girlfriend.

"Woah, slow down," Steve pushed back and tried to get a good look at her, "you ok?"

Steve closed the door and turned back to Daisy.

That's when he really got a good look at her, her hair was messy, she had a few cuts and bruises on her face, her makeup was smudged and there were clear tear stains on her cheek. All she had with her was a duffle bag, it was clear to Steve that something bad happened bad happened to his soulmate.

Daisy on the other hand was trying so hard not to break down in front of Steve.

"Can we just talk about it tomorrow?" Daisy asked, "I'm tired."

"Yeah, ok." Steve answered, knowing when not to push.

He pulled Daisy into the bedroom, took of his shirt and got into bed while Daisy quickly went in the bathroom and changed into something more comfortable for sleeping, then she climbed into bed next to him, and snuggled next to Steve.

It's no secret to anyone that Daisy is a cuddler, whether she is at the base hanging out with all the others, or watching a movie with Steve, she was always snuggle to the person next to her.

"You know I'll always be here for you, right?" Steve asked, giving Daisy a kiss on the forehead, "I love you."

Steve told Daisy that you love her about half an year ago, when he met up for a date with Daisy on her day off. They both remember it clearly, they were having a very romantic dinner that Steve made in the very same apartment that they are right now, when Steve confessed his love for her with a kiss and Daisy quickly responded it was the same thing.

"Yeah, I know, I love you too," Daisy pulled Steve in for a kiss, "Goodnight."

The next morning

When Steve woke up at around 7 o'clock, Daisy was still asleep and by the looks of it she needed it very much, so as usual Steve went out for his run.

By the time he came back it was already almost nine thirty, so he took a quick shower, had a change of clothes and decided to make breakfast for both him and Daisy.

Daisy was woken up an hour later by the smell of chocolate chip pancakes, her favourite.

She quickly brushed her teeth and splashed some water on her face and went out for breakfast.

"Morning," Steve said as soon as he saw his girlfriend come out of their shared bedroom, "How was your sleep?"

"The longest I have slept in a while," Daisy replied while sitting on the couch.

"Thanks," Daisy said when Steve gave her a big plate of pancakes and sat next to her.

"You okay?" Steve asks, concerned, "You usually finish them in a whole minute instead of poking it."

Daisy really tried to hold it in, but she couldn't, she just couldn't.

Steve immediately engulfed her into a hug, when he saw the tears rolling down her eyes, knowing that was the only thing that she needed right now.

With everything that happened the past few days, she didn't even have time to process everything that had happened the past few days.

"It's ok," Steve reassured his soulmate, "I'm here."
