Pairing: Steve Rogers x Barnes!Reader
Request ( @witch-of-letters ): Hi there! 😀 Can I request a Steve one-shot, where he is in love with the Reader (who is Bucky's older twin sister) and vice versa? During WW2 she was chosen as a female candidate for super-soldier program (dubbed Liberty Prime), and like Steve, ended up on ice. Years later, the subject of her brother is still very painful for her (she keeps crying on her and Bucky's birthday). Some details: Besides being a super-soldier, Reader is a tech genius (like Shuri and Tony) and a top-notch
a/n: praying this is similar to what you had in mind lol, i tried to make it as long as I could. hope you enjoy it love!
“Friday, please show me a projection of the prototype’s blueprint.”
You looked up as the projection’s blue lights showed up in front of you.
“Wait something’s not right.” You spoke silently to yourself, as you waved your hand in front of the projection, moving some things around. You pushed your glasses up from the bridge of your nose as you turned your back to the projection and wrote some things down
“Where did those other papers go?” You looked beside you before looking underneath the table, “there you are.” You smirked as you slid underneath.
“Yeah- agh!” you hissed as you bumped your head under the table.
“You are needed in the main room.”
“Alright, Friday. Thanks.” Rubbing your head, you slid out from under the table and began rearranging the papers again.
“I’m sorry, Ms Prime, but it is quite urgent.”
“And who exactly is this who needs me so urgently?”
“Again, apologies, but I was strictly ordered not to say anything.”
You sighed and removed your glasses, placing them onto the table. Bunching the papers together, you took them with you, just in case someone were to come into the lab and mess with them. You waved your hand across the projection, and it quickly disappeared.
Walking toward the elevator, you felt like it was somewhat quite in the tower, no Bruce in the lab, no Tony bothering Bruce in the lab. It’s not like they were on a mission that no one had mentioned to you.
You entered the elevator and pressed the main room’s floor. Tapping your foot the low music, you wondered who or what was waiting for you.
As soon as the door slid open, and just as you were about to step out-
The papers that were once in your arms were now scattered on the floor as you were surprised by what you were met with.
It took you a few seconds to comprehend what was happening. You hadn’t even remembered that it was your birthday, but when the realization of your surroundings hit you, you started smiling like crazy.
“You guys! You really shouldn’t have.” You giggled as you walked toward them all, going in for a group hug.
“It’s what you deserve, love.”
You felt a kiss being placed on your temple, “Happy birthday, sweetheart.” Without looking, you automatically knew who it was, your one and only Steve Rogers. You hugged his figure, and even though you were a super soldier too, he was still quite larger than you.
Some would say that you and Steve’s pet names were oldschool, names that grandparents would use, but it made sense, since you two were around a 100 years old.
“Alright, alright, I’d hate to cut the cute moment short, but it’s time for the cake.” Tony spoke.
“Wow, you just hate to see someone else in the spotlight, don’t you?” Natasha sassed, causing Tony to glare at her and roll his eyes as he walked toward the kitchen, and everyone laughed as they followed him.
“Wow, Thor! It’s- it’s, um, wow. What is it?” you nervously laughed as you opened his gift.
You all sat around the table as you opened up everyone’s gifts.
“It’s a stone, my lady, from the same star that mjolnir was forged upon.” He explained proudly.
“Oh, wow, in that case, I do love it!” You laughed as you hugged and thanked him.
“Alright, last but not least, it’s time for my gift.” Steve spoke from beside you. “I thought long and hard about what to give you, because you deserve everything in the world, doll.” he stated, which almost made your heart melt.
Steve handed you a small wrapped item, and you wondered what it was. “Wow, and I thought my gift was overboard.” Tony sarcastically commented, causing Barton to hit his shoulder.
You looked up at Steve, “go ahead.” He smiled reassuringly.
Being the neat person you are, you began to gently unwrap the gift.
“Oh, for the love of god!” Natasha exclaimed as she helped you by ripping the paper off. “Alright, alright!” You laughed as you turned the gift onto its front.
It was a frame, and the picture inside it was one that you would never forget. You still remember the day so vividly, even though it was years and years ago.
You were at loss for words.
It was a picture of you and Steve, and your younger twin brother, Bucky, on a playground years ago when you were kids.
You hadn’t noticed you were tearing up until you felt Steve’s arms around you. No one was use to seeing Liberty Prime crying, but you didn’t even put that in mind.
“Woah, hey, hey! I’m so sorry, I thought this would make you happy, sweetheart.” Steve sympathetically spoke. “No, of course it made me happy. I love it, Steve.” You reassured.
“It’s just-“ you sniffled. It had been years since you had seen your twin brother, and till this day, anytime he is mentioned, you still feel even a pinch of pain in your chest. “I just really miss him.”
“I do too, doll. I doo too.” He kissed your forehead.
“Wow I didn’t even think this picture was still around.” You laughed.
As you sat and hugged Steve for his amazing gift, the only sound that could be heard was the TV in the background.
“In other news, the Winter Soldier has been spotted once more on the streets of New York City...”
