Disclaimer: I do not own Captain America, The Avengers or any other movie that has to do with Marvel or their plots/characters. I do however own MY plot and MY OCs.

Sum: She had almost decided against going out for groceries that night but she was eating for two and her fridge was almost empty. She's glad she did go out that night or she never would have met him. (Sometimes I suck at summaries and this is one of those times.) Steve/OC eventual Steve/OC/Bucky (I was going to wait until Civil War came out but I'm just gunna do my own thing instead)Title may change.

I really wanted to get this first chapter up because I wanna know reactions. I have about 2 or 3 chapters worth of stuff written but I might need to ask you guys for opinions.

This is not related to my other story The White Fang in any way (Unless you guys want it to be since this is a Steve/OC and that's a Bruce/OC so it's not like the pairings wouldn't work. I'm currently rewriting The White Fang anyways) This takes place AFTER The Avengers movies. (I read somewhere that Winter Solider takes place two years after The Avengers and I plan on having some Winter Solider parts in this as well.)

Steve entered his apartment building and headed upstairs. He reached the landing of the floor below his and heard something hit the ground and a feminine voice curse quietly. Steve looked down the hallway to see a young black haired woman struggling with some grocery bags in her arms, one of which had fallen to the floor. He headed down the hall and picked up the bag she'd dropped, he put what had fallen out back in.

"Here." He said with a smile as he stood.

"Oh thank you." The woman said as she turned to look at him with bright hazel eyes and returned the smile. She still struggled to get her keys out of her purse that slid off her shoulder.

"Here, let me hold the other one while you get your keys." Steve suggested.

"Thank you. I'm surprised I even made the walk home without dropping something." The woman handed him the other bag and Steve blinked when he noticed her stomach. She had to be at least seven if not eight months pregnant. She got her keys out of her bag and unlocked her door. "Thank you again." She said. "Not many people would stop to help."

"You're welcome." Steve said. "I'm Steve, I live upstairs."

"I know." She said. "I mean I recognize you." She added quickly.

"Ah."

"I didn't know you lived upstairs, I mean I did because I've seen you around and you have a recognizable face considering-…" she stopped. "I'm rambling." She said and bit her lip as Steve chuckled slightly. "Skylar." She held out her hand. "Oh, here." She took one of the bags back and Steve shook her hand with a smile. "Thank you for helping me."

"Of course." Steve said. Skylar opened her door and turned for Steve to hand her the other bag. "I've got it." Skylar smiled.

"Thank you…. Again." She added with a chuckle as they headed inside. She put her purse on a chair by the door, flicked on the light and put down her grocery bag on the counter in the kitchen. Steve followed in behind her and put the bag he had beside the other. Skylar looked at her watch and cursed quietly. "Damn, I have to be at work in a half hour."

"Work?"

"Yeah, I'm a bartender." She said. Steve raised his eyebrows. "I don't drink any of it of course." She said as she put a hand on her belly subconsciously. "Can't drink on the job anyways."

"Right." Steve nodded. "Um, I don't mean to pry but should you be working?" he asked. Skylar raised an eyebrow as she tilted her head. She looked down at her belly when Steve looked at it.

"Oh!" she laughed. "Yeah, no, I don't get maternity for another month or so. Even then I'll only have a week or so…" Steve frowned.

"A week?"

"I can't afford to take off any longer." She said as she started to unpack her groceries. "Besides normally I wouldn't get any but my boss insists I take some time off."

"What about your husband?" Steve asked. Skylar held up her left hand to show Steve the lack of ring.

"Never had one." She said with a frown. Steve nodded; he had to remind himself things were different now.

"Ah, boyfriend?"

"Nope." Skylar said with a sigh. "I was going to get child support but… he can't really pay me now cause he died last year during that New York alien thing." She said with a one shoulder shrug.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Steve said with a frown.

"It's okay. He was an ass, left as soon as he found out and told me outright he was going to pay the minimum requirement because and I quote 'It's not my fault you got pregnant.'" She said with a scoff.

"That's terrible." Steve said with a frown.

"Yeah… well it doesn't matter now." Skylar said shaking her head as she continued to unpack food.

"Do you know what it's going to be?" Steve asked after a moment of silence. Skylar shook her head.

"I want it to be a surprise." She said with a small smile that made Steve smile. "So, I'm just gunna ask before I over think how to ask you." Steve raised an eyebrow. "Do you wanna come over for dinner later? I was thinking of making some spaghetti. You don't have to I was just thinking you might want to- I mean if you have other plans that okay- or if you just don't want to-"

"I'd love to." Steve said with a smile. Skylar smiled back.

"I get outta work at eight, kinda a late dinner but I can't get out any earlier."

"Eight sounds great." Steve said. Skylar giggled and Steve tilted his head. Skylar shrugged.

"It rhymed." She said with a shrug. Steve chuckled. "So I'll see you at eight."

"See you then." Steve said with a nod.

Eight o'clock rolled around and Steve found himself checking himself over in the mirror. He smoothed down his shirt before heading downstairs. He knocked on Skylar's door and heard her call through the door.

"It's open." Steve frowned slightly as he opened the door. He closed it behind him and headed into the kitchen where Skylar was plating two plates of spaghetti.

"I could've been anyone." Steve said.

"I knew it was you." Skylar said as she put the plates on the kitchen bar.

"How?"

"Well, it's eight and I knew you were coming." Skylar said with a small chuckle as she got out two glasses and two sets of utensils.

"Still." Steve said.

"Don't worry; I normally have the door locked and bolted." Skylar said. "What would you like to drink?"

"Water's fine." Steve said.

"You can sit down." Skylar said when she noticed he was still standing. He hesitated but nodded and sat down. Skylar put down the two glasses before coming around and sitting down next to him.

"So…" Steve said as Skylar took a sip of water. "When are you due?" he asked with a small smile.

"April." Skylar said with a big grin as she put a hand on her belly. Her smile was contagious for Steve found his grow. "I went out the other day and picked out the cutest bunny plush and blanket. I wish I could give them their own room and decorate it but oh well." She seemed to glow as she gushed on and on. Steve could tell she was excited to be a mother and would love the child more than anything in the world.

The two were just about finished eating when Steve noticed a box in the living area.

"Have you put together the bassinet yet?" Steve asked.

"Bassinet? Oh the crib, no." Skylar had a sheepish smile. "I should've put it together sooner when I could get up off the floor easier."

"I could put it together for you." Steve offered.

"Oh, you are the sweetest, you don't have to do that."

"It'll be no problem." Steve said with a smile. The look she gave him almost broke his heart.

"Thank you so much." She said as soon there were tears in her eyes. "Sorry, the hormones." She said wiping her eyes. "The other day I was crying over a cereal commercial." She said with a laugh. Steve smiled slightly. "Oh." Skylar jumped slightly. "They're kicking." She said with a big grin. "Do you wanna feel?" Steve's eyebrows went up.

"May I?"

"Yeah." Skylar said with a smile as she held out her hand for his. She put his hand on her belly and after a moment he felt the soft kick against his hand. Steve smiled and looked up to see Skylar smiling at him.

"Wow."

"Amazing isn't it? I still can't get over it." She said. Suddenly Steve's phone going off broke the comfortable silence. He pulled it out of his pocket.

"I have to go." He said as he stood. "Thank you for dinner."

"Off to save the world?" Skylar asked with an amused smile.

"Something like that." Steve said with a chuckle.

"Well, thank you for having dinner with me."

"I'll stop by tomorrow to put together the bassinet." Steve said as Skylar stood.

"Thank you again for that. I have work from four to eight but other than that I'll be home all day tomorrow." Skylar said. Steve nodded.

"Thank you again for dinner."

"Of course. Be careful out here."

"Of course."

This is short because I wanna know what you guys think and all. Any thoughts? Again do you guys want this and The White Fang to happen in the same universe? I think after the next chapter I'll ask you guys for opinions on where to go. (I like when I can create something with my readers suggestions because then you guys are a part of it too, I always give credit for ideas.)

Side note:This takes place in mid-late January and Winter Solider is in April (from what I read, correct me if I'm wrong).

HEY READ THIS REALLY QUICK PLEASE

So I recently added part of what I have below as an A/N chapter which I never do. (I'm going to delete it at some point but I also want it here.)

There was a guest review, (not going to approve because it makes me sound like an idiot. probably not their intent but I felt a bit insulted).

The review: "If Sunny father died two years ago how would that even work? Was Skyler pregnant for 21 months? Maybe proofread your chapters before you publish them to make sure you're keeping an accurate time-line."

So pretty much they say I said Sunny's father died two years ago so Sky had to be preg for 21 months. NOT TRUE, you probably remember just reading it, I said this:

"he died last year during that New York alien thing"

Not "two years ago" Skylar said this in like February and she was 7-8 months preg meaning he died in like July of the year before. The two year mark is when when Winter Solider happens, yes, I think when I wrote this I was under the impression that the 2 year mark was Age of Ultron so i messed up there but this is fanfiction I can do whatever time-stretch or cut with this that I want.

When people say "last year" they don't mean 365 days from the the day they say it. It could've been 7 months ago which would fall under the last year mark. So NO Sunny's father didn't die 2 years ago. He died 7 months before Skylar met Steve(week or two after conceiving Sunny).

I apologize for the rant but I don't want anyone else thinking I messed up and that Sky was 21 months preg cause she was not.
