Steve walked on the sidewalk in downtown Manhattan. A sigh escaped him as he continued on that daily walk of his. He’s been walking for hours, miles and yet he does not tire. Perhaps, he thought, glancing at his surroundings, this is one day I’ll get to spend away from everything… But deep down inside Steve knew that he’ll always have to return to being that freak. He wanted nothing to do with it, he just wanted to go back to his time and see Peggy Carter again. Just thinking of her sent shots of agony jolting through his heart.
A car speeds by and, startled, Steve jumps slightly. He’s still not used to this new world. He sighs and walks over to a bench where he sits down and sighs once more. He wipes a bead of sweat away from his brow and looks around him. People walk up and down the sidewalks, chattering as though nothing was wrong. Nothing was wrong at the moment, Steve knew that, but for them to be so calm just wasn’t right. He felt like warning them, but decides against it, not wanting to call attention to himself. He just wanted to sit there on the bench and enjoy a morning alone with his thoughts.
He rubbed his eyes with his hands and leaned heavily against the back of the bench. “Oh Peggy…what am I to do?” he murmured to himself, sighing deeply. He took the locket from his pocket and clicked it open, Peggy's black and white picture stared back at him. If he hadn’t wanted to get into the army so bad, none of this would have happened, he knew that and whenever he thought of it that way pain filled him up. If he hadn’t wanted that, Bucky wouldn’t be dead. He wouldn’t be where he was. All in all, Steve didn’t know what to do. Every day he struggled with himself and every day he thought about leaving. But something made him stay in Manhattan.

|| i've heard so many words || || but i had no courage || [/color][/font][/size] ~you changed me inside~[/font][/color] Tony.Steve.Open. || 220 words || lyrics: Give It All - He Is We[/center] Amelia had to say, as she walked down the sidewalk in downtown Manhattan, even though she hated him, Steve looked pretty distraught. With a sigh she walked toward him and sat down beside him. She asked gently, "Hey, Steve, are you okay? You look a little...glum?" She didn't really know how to say things around him, because they were usually at the other's throats.
She sighed slightly and avoided his eyes. I'm such a fail! She thought, looking back at him. She didn't really know what to say and didn't even have the voice to say it. She had always had a somewhat little crush on the man sitting next to her, but had a bigger one on Tony Stark. She had just found this little crush on Captain America out a few hours earlier when she'd seen him leave the SHIELD building. She hadn't actually decided to go after him until only a few moments ago. She was worried. Ashamed as Amelia was to admit it, she was worried for Captain America. A super soldier. He was a freaking super soldier for crying out loud and she, a useless girl, was worried about him! She shook her head slightly and brushed the hair away from her face. With another sigh she looked back at Steve.
"Steve...? Are you alright?

Hailey left the S.HI.E.L.D. headquarters, in a kind of rush. This was a new world to her, strange, and almost like the science fiction novels she used to read. She had onlt been unfrozen about a week prior to this mad dash for sanity. She was a super soldier, no doubt, but even they had their own little breakdowns, right?
"Pull it together Hailey." She murrmered.
An elderly couple walked by her, and she shook her head, but she couldn't stop the anxiety any more. She broke into a run, and anyone watching would know there was something wrong with her. No one was that fast for that long.
she passed a bench, where a man and a woman were sitting(Steve and Amelia) but this only made it worse. She ran for a few more yards, and mid-stride leapt into a tree, where she pulled her knees to her chin, and sat. Trying to calm down.
"Pull it together." She whispered to herself.
Steve has to be here somewhere. Right? He is the only person in the world who would know how I feel. If he even remembers me.

Steve opened his mouth to reply to Amelia, but he saw a slightly blur in the air, saw that golden hair flying out behind her. He blinked. Could it be? No. No..she...she was dead...wasn't she? He stood up, mumbling an apology to Amelia and raced after her. He saw her on a tree branch, her knees curled up close to her head.
He chose his words carefully as he went to the base of the tree, but just enough so she wouldn't really be able to see him, "Miss perhaps you should enlighten me, why do you run?" If it was her she'd remember his words from the time in the battle field when she'd run as a grenade flopped to the ground beside them. He'd been joking of course and was jogging beside her a fool's grin on his face.

(Ok I'm going to Say this now, I love your image on the top! those were my favorite lines, and the ones in my siggy on the other site!) She opened her eyes a little, and tried to see around the leaves, but he was hiding. It can't be, can it? The letter said MIA, assumed Dead. She loosened her grip on her legs slightly, and spoke in a hushed voice, because she was afraid she wouldn't get much louder with out sounding pained.
"I decided I'd run from a top buster." She remembered a small joke about grenades, and when the one time she could not remember what they were called, Steve had laughed at her for days.
It's not him. It can't be, they said he was here, bu it has been a week and i have not seen him.
She moved her boots to block her face from view, at all angles.

(She's not wearing red boots, their black combat boots. haha.) "Steve?"
She moved her boots just enough so her stromy gray eyes could be seen. She wanted to believe it was him, but she wasn't sure she could handle it is it wasn't so she was making sure.
"Steve Rogers?"
She smiled, and closed her boots again, some of the depression since being unfrozen lifted, but he would be the only one she knew. [coloe=red]Is it really him? Am I allowed to be happy again? [/center][/color]

She smiled. As he pulled himself up into the tree next to her "You know I hate it when you call me that. But she laughed anyways. She smirked, anf gently pulled her hand away, a little comforted by some of how they used to be, 70 years ago.
It was 70 years wasn't it... She frowned, but when she looked at him again she smiled. "I don't like it taht much, but now that I know you're alive, it s bearable." She looked up into the tree, trying to imagine how today turned out this way.

Steve said, "And I also know that you know that I never really cared if you liked it or not." He grinned at her. "And now that I know you are alive my day," he paused to frown. "Which started out rather crappy, has now taken a drastic turn toward a great day.
He leaned against the tree. "What happened to you after we got split?" He glanced over.

"I know you never cared." She smiled. She smiled at him comment, wondering why her presince, other than someone to talk to, would brighten his day. Even though she knew that his presince always made hers better, even 70 years ago. She remembered their first plane ride, and what transpired there. "Glad I could brighten your day." She smiled again. But that smile turned into a frown at his next question. That was one thing I never wantd to tell... She looked away from him, the note in her pocket suddenly feeling like a million tons. "You don't want to know. Her voice was grave and solom.

He glanced at her, worry flickering into his eyes. "Good Lord! Hailey! Whatever did they do to you!?" Steve's eyes were slightly wider then they'd been a few moments earlier. He did want to know. And he'd kill anyone who had hurt her.
But then the memory of the 'date' he and Sam had went on the day before came crashing back down on him. He blinked and looked away, his frown deepening. He thought he'd felt something for Amelia. He had been wrong. Was that going to happen with Sam too? No. He had kissed her...and he had enjoyed spending time with her. He and Hailey were just partners, brother and sister almost...or were they something more?

"I can't tell you...." She was resisting the urge to just run, run away blindly like how she had gotten to this tree. She wanted to hug him, and tell him everything, but she also wanted to stay quiet and keep to herself. You know if you do that, you'll never come ou of your shell again. She shook her head slowly. "I don't want to remember.. But I always will... She though as images of the children and women being shot, the feeling of slowly losing the ability to move as she was frozen, forced to watch the grausome show. She wanted to pull the note out right there, and rip it, or give it to him. But inside she knew it would take a lot to do either one.

Steve took her hand and stared into her eyes. "Hailey, what happened? We're partners...friends? Are we not? You can tell me anything." He brushed a strand of her hair away from her face.
He needed to know what had happened to her when he'd been sent to Germany. What had made her so...guarded. She hadn't used to be like this and he needed to know what had happened that had been so life changing.

Her free hand went to her pocket, and covered the note, but she didn't have the will power to pull it out. She looked down, she couldn't hold his gaze. I can't tell him..It would hurt him.. She frowned, holding back a tear, still frozen on the inside, mentaly, not physically. She chose her next words very carefully. She looked him in the eyes, her stormy gray eyes shining, with a dull tourtured light. "Lets just say, it wasn't something I planned to survive." [/color]
