Emily was slapping her fiancé's chest and Scott finally backed away from her and nodded "Yes, I see him!" Scott said and Emily slowly made her way towards Steve, Riley looking confused and looked over at Clint who nodded. Connie, Janet and Bucky were behind the car. Looking at the action in front of them, Connie with a small smile on her face.. Steve would always get embarrassed when someone was star struck, he didn't expect a new teammate to be like this too.
Emily was facing Steve, her eyes were tearing up before she brought Steve into a bone crushing hug. Steve was shocked at first before Emily spoke in a shaky voice
"You inspired me so much.. You saved my grandfather in a mission during World War II and he never forgot that. My parents were so against me going into fighting.. But I would wonder what you would do.. You inspired me to pack up my bags and leave my small town and start training.. Because I knew you didn't give up until you fought for your country and I didn't want to give up on my dreams.. Thank you for everything" She whispered and Steve had tears of his own before he hugged the woman in return "This is the reason why I love doing what I do.. For people like you to live your dream like I did with my own" Steve said and Emily chuckled and let go and was wiping away her tears
"I love you.. Not like that" Emily said before Scott came towards her "My heart belongs to this goof.. I love him more than anything in the world.. Expect maybe his daughter.. She has my heart too" She said before Scott gave a fake pout before smiling
"Wow.. It's nice to finally meet you.. Wow!" Scott said before going to shake Steve's hands and Riley smiled at the couple in front of her. Emily and Scott were so lovable and so happy.. She saw why they were a perfect couple
"Scott.. Honey.. You're shaking his hand too long." Emily pointed out and Connie couldn't help but laugh as she saw Scott was also star struck by her great-grandfather
"I'm shaking your hand too long. Wow! This is awesome! Captain America." He said before he released Steve's hand before looking back at Wanda "Oh.. I know you too! You're great"
"You are, I wish we can adopt you.. You're too amazing for this world" Emily said as Wanda had the brightest smile on her face and Riley was happy to see that smile on Wanda's face.. She hadn't smile lately after the Lagos accident.
Scott went back to feeling Steve's shoulders as he was amazed, Emily laughing "Scott.. Stop feeling him, he has a girlfriend" He said before looking at Riley and then her hand and seeing the ring "Oh! That her Fiancé!" Emily said with the hugest grin on her face and Scott nodded " Jeez. Ah, look, I wanna say, I know you know a lot of super people, so... Thinks for thanking of us. Emily was so excited when she found out that she was going to fight along side her hero and I was just so amazed.. I couldn't sleep one bit" Scott said before Emily laughed "I should have knocked you out"
"Honey.. You can knock me out any time.. If you know what I mean" Scott said as Emily's eyes widen and she wacked Scott's arm "Scott!" She said as Scott chuckled before looking at Sam "Good to see you man!"
"What's up, Tic Tac?" Sam said with a small smile and Scott smiled a bit "Uh, good to see you. Look, what happened last time when I..."
"It was a great audition, but it'll... it'll never happen again." Sam said and Connie chuckled "I was the poor one that had to hear the man rant for a month straight on how he lost a battle against an ex-con." She said and Sam pointed at her and gave her a look "I thought we wouldn't mention it" He said as Connie laughed and Emily went towards Riley and Connie and started shaking their hands "It's nice to meet you guys"
"I was very impressed when Sam started showing us the videos of you fighting.. You're amazing" Connie said and Emily blushed and shook her head "Still learning from the best.. My sister Hope has been teaching me new moves while I've been teaching her my own.. You learn something knew everyday" She said and Scott looked over at Emily with a huge smile before Steve cleared his throat and looked over at the couple
"Did they tell you what we're up against?" He said as Scott went towards Emily and wrapped an arm around her waist "Something about some psycho-assassins?" He said as Steve nodded
"We're outside the law on this one. So, if you come with us, you're wanted people" He said looking at them, Emily and Scott looking each other before Emily slowly intertwining their fingers together and Scott kissed her head before looking at Steve
"Well.. What else is new? We laugh in the face of danger" He said as Emily nodded "You guys need some help.. We would be honored to help" She said as Steve smiled at her "Thank you for that." He said before looking at the others "Suit up.."
Connie, Riley, Janet, Wanda and Emily were waiting for the guys to get ready and Emily looked over at Riley "So how long have you guys been engaged?" She asked as Riley blushed "It's been a couple of hours actually" She said and Emily's eyes widen
"Ah! Newly Engaged! How exciting and she took out a necklace that had a ring, an engagement ring "When we usually wear the suits.. I put my engagement ring on my necklace so it doesn't get lost while I'm punching something." She said as Riley and Connie looked at the ring and saw the two diamonds on it "I love it" Connie said and Emily smiled softly
"One Diamond is for us being best friend.. Another one is for us being a couple. We've been engaged for about a year now" She said as Riley looked at her ring and smiled
"Mine has the Diamond plus our birthstones in between.. I love it so much" Riley said as Connie laughed "You guys already got the rings and I'm still single" She said as Emly wiggled her eyebrows at her
"I see how Mr. Brooding is looking at you, you guys would look like a cute couple" She said as Connie laughed nervously and rubbed the back of her head "See there's a family story" She said as Emily was confused for a moment "What kind of story?"
"Basically an Inhuman sent her back in time with S.J, her grandfather and Natasha.. His girlfriend back into the 1940s. She met Bucky, Mr. Brooding before he was that at all and him and Connie had fallen in love. They were a couple until he left to fight in the war and she left back into her time.. By then, Bucky found her again as the Winter Soldier but he kept his distant" Janet's voice said behind the three and they turned to see Janet looking at Connie with an amused smile on her face
"Gee. Thanks Aunt Janet" Connie said dryly and Wanda chuckled "Well.. Your ex-boyfriend is very good looking" She said as Emily nodded "Yeah.. He won't look at any other woman.. Just you" Emily said and Connie smiled softly "I do like him" She said as Riley gave Connie a look
"I know there's a but in this" She said as Connie sighed
"Bucky had been brainwashed into murdering people and doing HYDRA's dirty work.. I wouldn't want to jump into a relationship with him right now because I know he's not mentally ready for it. He's probably scared that he could snap into the Winter Soldier if someone said those words and I can't stop him.. He felt horrible when he saw the bruises, how would he feel f he killed me?" Connie said as Emily nodded in agreement
"You two have all the time in the world, you two aren't going anywhere and there's no big threat happening in this world.. You just need to be patient with him" She said as Connie smiled and nodded "That's the plan"
"Besides.. I had to wait years to reunite with Scott after he was put into jail.. He was scared that I was going to leave him but I never did. Now look at us, we kick butt as a ant-sized duo and now we're finally planning our wedding while also being with his daughter.. We don't even have date nights anymore, they literally turn into family night with Cassie and it's honestly it's more fun than date night." She said and Wanda smiled at her
"You guys are so cute together" She said and Emily grinned and shook her head "We're not perfect.. We still have our disagreements. But we're a team in the end" She said and looked over at guys that were walking towards them and Steve looked at the girls, Riley looking over at Emily for a couple of moments before speaking "Can I speak to you alone for a moment?" She as the raven-hair woman nodded and they went towards the corner of the parking lot, a few moments later they returned to the group
"Scott and Emily, I want you guys to shrink and stay with us for backup.. We know Stark is here and he's going all out but we'll be ready.. Riley and I will try to get the helicopter. Sam, Connie and Bucky you guys stick together. Wanda, Clint and Janet in another group." Steve said and Emily and Scott nodded, they placed their helmets on and looked at each other before both pressing a button on their suits, causing them to be small
"Woah!" Connie said with a huge smile and soon they saw small figures jumping around until they were on Steve's shoulders, Steve looking down at Emily and Scott with a small smile before looking at his team
"Are we ready?" He asked and the group nodded before Connie went towards Steve and hugged him tight "You stay safe.. If I hear that Tony hurts you badly, I won't be afraid to punch that helmet off of him" She whispered and Steve chuckled "Same goes for you, I won't be afraid to punch anyone in the guts enough for them to bleed out"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of her" Bucky said stepping up towards Steve and Connie, Steve giving him a look for a moment before sticking his hand out "I know you will.. Make sure she's safe" He said and Bucky looked at Connie before smiling softly "I promise"
"Alright team.. Let's go"
Author's Note:
Woooo first chapter of 2018!
A lot of people ship Connie and Buck and Orchid and T'Challa and it makes me happy cause those two couples are pure and I would protect them at all costs.
I wanted a chapter for Emily to interact with the girls as it would be a nice bonding experience and it's been a while since I've wrote Em and Scott and I missed them
I'm also publishing chapters that Emily is in for her story Ant-Man and Emily so fans of her won't miss her if they choose to not read to Civil War story so hello guys!
What do you think Riley pulled aside Emily for?
