Sammy you got some âsplainin to do...

âUhâŚâ Damn her built in lie detector. He couldnât really lie to Beth, hell, nobody could. Andy had tried once, only once. Sam took another sip of coffee before sighing.Â
âBeth⌠What Iâm about to tell you doesnât leave this tableâŚâ Sam said, his tone becoming quiet and stern. He glanced around before leaning in close. âBeth, Clint and I⌠Weâre part of a special teamâŚ. May have heard about us. The Avengers? Anyway, you didnât hear this from me cause Clint keeps it on the down low. Needless to say, not the point of this whole thing.â
When she changed the subject, Sam was mentally thanking whichever powers that be had graced him in that moment. Hell heâd thank Thor if the Asgardian was present.
âWell, about a year now. And she makes me happier than anything has in a very long time.â Sam explained, his dread becoming replaced with pure and utter joy as he talked about Emily. âI want to do whatever it takes to make her happy Beth.â
Well, actually plenty of people could lie to Beth, and she was oblivious to it, but she knew Sam like she knew her own bones. It was a sister thing, even if they werenât technically related by genetics. She watched him drink his coffee. âSeriously, I wouldnât poison you. Iâd shoot you instead.â She winked. When his tone changed and Sam moved in closer, Beth tilted her head. What he told her was possibly the last thing she expected to hear, and she sat back, honest to goodness stunned. âShut...the...front door. It may not be the point of this Sam, but...oh jeeze. Jayâs gonna kill him, if you donât get each other killed first.â There was a very real and terrible fear in her eyes. Beth had watched the News, had lived through the Battle of New York. If what had happened to Andy happened to Sam and Clint....she couldnât even process that. With a breath, she forced herself to focus on his talk of Emily, it was a far safer thing. âOkay. Well. Wow. Alright.â A series of non-commital words. She rubbed at one eye. âWell. In light of that, I guess all I can say is... you go...and chase your Unicorn, Sam Wilson. But you have to get Jay to say yes. And invite your momma. And I guess youâre picking Steve as your best man?â Clearly, Beth thought that honour should go to her.
