Mob!Steve Rogers x Reader

You stare absentmindedly at the floor as you wait for your husband to come home. You see a flash of headlights and quickly go to the door as the black Yukon pulls up.

You open it to see your husband with a strange look on his face covered in red with Bucky and Sam behind him.

"Strip." You order the three men. "Down to nothing and get in the shower and scrub." The three do as they're told and you bag up their clothes, light a fire in the fireplace and throw the bag in it, destroying the evidence.

You wait until everything is burned before you put the fire out and go up to the bedroom. Steve sits on his side of the bed, not moving.

"Steven? Are you okay?" He says nothing. "Do you want to talk about it?" He shakes his head.

"You shouldn't be with me." He says softly.

"What?"

"I'm a bad man Y/N. How can you stand being a mobster's wife?"

"I relish being your wife." You sing softly. "Look around, look around..."

You get on your knees in front of him.

"Look at where you are

Look at where you started

The fact that you're alive is a miracle

Just stay alive, that would be enough."

You take his hand and place it on your stomach.

"And if this child

Shares a fraction of your smile

Or a fragment of your mind, look out world!

That would be enough

I don't pretend to know

The challenges you're facing

The worlds you keep erasing and creating in your mind

But I'm not afraid"

You take his face in your hands.

"I know who I married

So long as you come home at the end of the day

That would be enough

We don't need a legacy

We don't need money

If I could grant you peace of mind

If you could let me inside your heart..."

Your hand lands on his heart and he falls to his knees and you take him in your arms.

"Oh, let me be a part of the narrative

In the story they will write someday

Let this moment be the first chapter:

Where you decide to stay

And I could be enough

And we could be enough

That would be enough."

"I love you. So much." Steve says as he quietly cries to himself.

"I love you. And I love being your wife." You look at him. "What you do out there has nothing to do with us. You love me, you treat me with respect and you make me happy. That's all I want."

"Thank you." The two of you kiss. "And your voice is beautiful."
