Who: Steve Rogers and Veronica Mars-Rogers What: Srs Married People Talks When: Sunday night Where: Their place Warnings: TBD Status: Closed/On-going
It had been a long time now since Steve had made his decision, since he’d known he needed to sit down and have another difficult talk with Veronica. Not that he thought it’d be difficult because she’d be angry, or even insulted, theirs was a complicated relationship, but because he did feel bad for always being the one approaching her, asking for more, asking for different, and there had to be a limit somewhere. He worried he was going to hit it and he was going to wind up hurting her.
But nothing ventured, nothing gained, and after everything that had wound up happening in the months he’d been thinking about it, from things the town did to them and through the holidays, Steve knew he had to just man up and come out with it, deal with whatever the answer was.
He waited until everyone had started winding down for the night, cornered his wife with a cup of tea that he passed to her as he sat down beside her, his hand immediately coming to rest on her belly once it was freed of the mug.
“How’re we feeling?” He wanted to talk but he wasn’t going to press i if she wasn’t up for it. With the baby so close, he was mindful of her needs. And knew that the timing could have been better.
