"Are you two a thing now?" Kami asked as she sat down next to Gali with a bowl of popcorn.
"You have too, you've been on what? Three dates so far?" Jane added.
"And that's not counting the blind date" Natasha quickly said.
"Plus, you two look so cute together!" Pepper squealed.
It's been 2 weeks since the team set Steve and Gali on the blind date, and they've been on three dates without anyone setting them up. It was nice, like really, really nice.
The girls are in Gali's part of the tower. It's a whole floor that's hers and all about her. They're sitting around in the living room, eating popcorn and talking. The topic of the hour is Galilea and Steve.
"Well you know that Steve's from the last century, so he might have a different approach for this" She mumbled.
"Pfft. What's different? You really like someone, you ask the person to be your boyfriend or girlfriend" Jane commented.
"Yeah, it's been going on like that forever. Well, maybe in the Victorian ages, if you liked someone you'd marry them... I guess?" Kami shrugged.
"I don't know... and why are you talking about me and Steve? Why don't we talk about Jane and Thor? Or Tony and Pepper? Clint and Natasha, who obviously have a thing going on behind our backs. Or the fact that Bruce hasn't asked Kamilla out yet!" Galilea desperately said so the attention can go to someone else. Apparently that worked because they're all over Kamilla's situation right now.
"He still hasn't asked you out?!" Pepper exclaimed. Kami went red.
"That little- he told me he was going to do it after he finished his experiment" Natasha grumbled.
"Guys, it's okay. If he hasn't asked me yet, it's because he doesn't like me" Kamilla looked down. Gali scooted closer to her and wrapped an arm around her.
"Kami, Bruce freaking likes you. You don't know how he was looking at you when it was my birthday. Oh my god. It was adorable" She squealed. Kami managed to smile a bit.
"Really?" She looked up at her friend.
"My dear Kamilla, have I ever been wrong about these kind of situations?" Galilea asked her best friend.
"Uh, yes. That time you said that a hobo was hitting on you. Or the time you claimed that a German tourist asked you to marry you when in reality he was asking if he could take a picture with you" she informed.
"Hey, he used hand gestures, I thought he was proposing" Gali defended herself. The girls laugh. Once they settled down Jane started.
"I think we should do something about Bruce and Kami"
"Already on it" In two second flat Galilea was off the couch and pressing the elevator button. Kami called after her.
"Where are you going?"
"Uh, talk to a certain doctor about taking a certain German girl on a date" Gali said once she was in the elevator, making sure they wouldn't go after her.
"Wait, what?" Nat asked. Kami caught on and she jumped off the couch but was too late to get her because the doors closed.
"Galilea!" She yelled.

The elevator stopped and opened its doors. Gali walked out just in time to hear Clint sing call me maybe.
"Hey I just meet you and this is crazy but here's my number so call me maybe" he sang.
She went to the living room and saw Clint and Thor holding a microphone, staring at the tv for the lyrics. Steve, Bruce, and Rhodey sitting on the couch covering their ears.
Tony on the other hand, he's recording it. Typical Tony. Then Thor started to sing. Gali bit her bottom lip to suppress the laugh.
"Before you came into my life I missed you so bad" he was flipping his hair around and dancing around with Clint. Clint then started playing with Thor's hair and sang with him. Idiots. The song was over and the guys sighed in relief.
"That was horrible" Bruce muttered.
"I'm so sending this to Fury" Tony smiled down at his phone. Gali rolled her eyes at him. Thor turned around and was the first one to see the girl standing there.
"Maiden Stark. Would you like to join us on the machine of singing?" Everyone turned to look at her.
"No thank you Thor. Some other time, perhaps" she said.
"Yes, and we will sing Walking on Sunshine" he said. Well... okay then.
"So Gali, you came to join us?" Rhodey asked.
"Are the girls boring?" Clint grinned.
"No. I just came to talk to Bruce" his head snapped up and turned to look at her. She quickly made her way to him and plopped down on the couch.
"Tell me Bruce, what's taking you so long to ask Kamilla out?" She crossed her left leg over her right and put her hands over her knee. The question brought the guys attention and they straightened up to hear his answer. Bruce on the other hand went red.
"Come on Banner, what's taking so long?" Clint asked.
"Um... I don't know" he looked down, blushing.
"What don't you know?! Kamilla is a great girl. I've known her for years and let me tell you, she's really one of a kind" Rhodey spoke up.
"Yeah. Like, she broke her arm when she was 12" Gali nodded.
"How's that one of a kind?" Bruce asked.
"She broke it while getting a cookie out of a cookie jar" Tony told him.
"How'd-"
"We don't know" Tony shook his head.
"Sometimes I worry about her" Gali admitted.
"You always have to worry when it comes to Kamilla. Remember the sprained ankle?" Tony asked.
"Or the near death experience when she got stung by a bee?" Galilea added.
"When she 'fell' in the War Machine suit and 'flew' over California?" Rhodes butted in.
"Yes oh my god! That was funny!" Gai laughed.
"How was that funny?" Thor asked.
"She flew into three billboards, destroyed a garden, almost crashed into a random house, hit a lamppost, and to top it off, her screams" Tony listed off the things that happened.
"She does sound-"
"Wonderful?" Gali cut Bruce off.
"Troublesome?" Rhodes asked.
"Just plain weird" Tony finished off.
"Yeah, all of those things. But she is beautiful" he said.

"Aww. That's so cute" Gali cooed.
"Yeah. I think I just fell in love" Clint placed a hand over his heart and batted his eyelashes.
"So are you going to court maiden Rosenthal?" Thor asked.
"Yes. I am" Bruce nodded in determination.
"Yay! Now go up there and ask her out!" Gali pulled him off the couch.
"Now?!"
"Yes, now!" She pushed him towards the elevator.
"Wh- what do I say?" Bruce stuttered.
"Tell her that you would like to go out with her!" Clint yelled.
"Yeah, what he said" Gali pushed him into the open elevator and pressed the button to her floor. "You'll do great"
"Good luck!" The guys yelled as the doors were closing. She heard sniffling so she turned to see Tony fake crying.
"They grow up so fast" he cried.
"Stop faking it man" Clint said. Tony has teary eyes and the sniffling got more realistic.
"I don't think he's faking it" Gali told them. The guys looked at Tony with concern.
"Are you alright?" Steve asked. Tony nodded.
"Yeah... umm... I'm fine" Tony nodded, still tearing up.
"Aww, it's okay bro-ha" Gali wrapped him in a hug "there, there" She patted his head.
"Gali, you're growing up too fast. Look at you! It feels like it was just yesterday that you threw your duck slippers at me because I messed with the things in your room" Tony cried.
"Tony, that was yesterday" she reminded him.
"Really?" His head shot up. She nodded. "Oh, then never mind" he brushed himself off as if his whole melt down didn't happen. He went to the bar to pour himself a drink.
"Guys want anything?" He asked.
"Yes!" Rhodey, Clint and Thor followed Tony. Steve stayed with me.
"You're not getting a drink?" Gali asked. He shook his head. "Oh, okay then"
She tried not to jump on him and kiss him on the spot, but she couldn't contain herself. She did exactly what she thought about. It took him by surprise but he didn't say anything. The brother on the other hand...
"Blergh, guys PDA!" Gali pulled back from Steve, blushing.
"What is PDA?" Thor asked.
"Public display of affection" Rhodes explained.
"Oh. There will not be public affection infront of us" Thor nodded.
"I agree with mean swing" Tony pointed to Thor.
"Whatever" Gali mumbled. The guys went to what they were doing and Steve whispered in her ear.
"You wanna go somewhere?"
"Sure" She replied.
"Hold it right there Mr Spangles. Our method of transportation is a motorcycle?" Galilea eyed the motorcycle in front of her.
"Yes" Steve nodded.
She bit her bottom lip and stared at the bike. I'm so going to die.
"Are you scared?" Steve asked with a smile.
"Maybe" She quickly answered. Steve laughed and Gali narrowed her eyes at him.
"The brave Galilea Stark is afraid of a motorcycle?"
"I never said that I was brave. Besides, I've never been on one" she tried to justify herself.
"So you're scared of them yet you've never been on one?" Steve asked. Gali nodded.
"Come on Gali" he grabbed her hand and pulled her to the bike. "It'll be okay" he assured.
"Okay, I trust you" he placed a soft kiss on her lips.
"Good, now get on" he got on it and looked at her. She took a breath and got on the bike, tightly wrapping her arms around him. "Ready?"
"I guess" she replied.
He started it and they were off. Gali let out a small scream and buried her face in his back. She heard a deep laugh and felt Steve's body shaking because of the laugh. She kept her eyes closed and after a few minutes later, they came to a complete stop. She slowly opened her eyes and saw that they're in Central Park.
"The park?" She questioned.
"It's a nice day to take a walk" he said. True that. They got off the bike and walked hand in hand through the park.
Galilea looked around as they walked through the park, kids ran around, laughs and people talking all around. Kids flying kites, teenagers with their girlfriends or boyfriends, others with their friends.
They stopped under a tree and sat down on the green grass. They were quiet for some minutes, until Steve spoke up.
"Gali, I was wondering... I mean, we've been out a few times... and, uh... I really like you and... um-" Steve stumbled over his own words.
"Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?" Gali asked. Steve's cheeks flushed deep red.
"I'm trying" he said. Gali giggled. "How am I doing?" He asked.
"Horrible" She smiled. "But I say yes" She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him in for a kiss.
"Really?" He asked when they pulled away.
"Yes"
"Now what? I mean, I've never had a girlfriend before so..." He trailed off.
Aww, so I'm his first girlfriend? That's so cute! Wait, what about Peggy? Didn't she and Steve have a thing? He did say that I was his first girlfriend. I must be bluffing then.
"Now we do what we always do" She told him.
"Which is...?" Gali looked over his shoulder and her eyes widened.
"Run from the paparazzi" She grabbed his hand and pulled him up. The ran and looked over her shoulder and saw a few papzz running. "Run Steve run!"
Well that sounded like Forrest Gump. He picked up speed and soon he was pulling her behind him.
"You run to fast!" She yelled.
"Sorry" he slowed his pace and came to a stop. He crouched down. "Jump on my back"
"What?" She questioned.
"Just do it"
She hesitated and then jumped. she wrapped her arms around his neck and he grabbed her legs. He continued to run. He ran through the park, avoiding people. She looked back and noticed that the papzz were way back.
"Steve, they stopped, they're not following us anymore" She said.
He stopped and turned around, once he saw that they were nowhere near he set the girl down. "You sure can run fast"
"It's the serum" he said.
"Well we lost the papzz, now what?" An idea popped in her head. "Let's have a movie night!"
