Status: Closed/On-Going
For the last month, life had been all about getting settled in the way things were now. A bigger, fuller house, just down the road from where Steve, Bucky, and Molly had lived before. Learning to live together and with people they’d barely had a chance to get to know. It took a lot of work to keep things going smoothly, to make sure the kids were happy and settling in, that they all even could live together.
There’d barely been enough time through all of it to consider that there were a lot of things to still work out to make marriage work too. Steve and Veronica had spent their free time together filling in blanks, talking about things relevant in the moment, and none of it was very important. It was likes and dislikes, preferences in the day-to-day. They were getting to know each other, but with everything else going on around the house it wasn’t as deep as it should be. They hadn’t talked about anything important. But managing to avoid deep was working for now, and that was fine.
For once, the house was quiet, the kids not home yet and Bucky and Kara both out. Steve had just gotten in himself, was paused a few steps into the living room going through what felt like a small mountain of mail. Bigger house and bigger family meant there was a lot more of that, too, when he heard the door behind him, glancing back and smiling as Veronica came into the house. He hoped he was never completely used to seeing his wife coming in the door.
“Hey. I didn’t expect you back until later.”
