#11 The Proposal

Steve Rogers / Captain America

"Honey, I'm home!" You yelled as you stepped inside your house. Steve came towards you. 

"Keep your jacket on, we're going out," He said before he kissed your cheek to greet you. You dumped your bag in your room and walked back to the front door. Steve was waiting patiently. 

"What's going on, Steve?" You asked him. 

"I told you, we're going out. I thought you might need a break from work," He smiled. You chuckled and walked with him to your car, after locking the house. 

"Where are we going?" You asked as he pulled off of the parking lot. 

"Can't tell, it's a surprise." He said with a smirk. You looked at him with a suspicious look in your eyes. He just smiled and focused on the road. 

When you arrived at your destination, you stepped out of the car. And you immediately smelled it, the sea. You turned around and faced your boyfriend. He was smiling widely and held out his hand. 

You took it firmly and you two spent the entire day at the beach. Even though it was too cold to swim, you had a great time walking around, collecting seashells and splashing through the water. 

And when it started to get dark, you went to the dunes and sat down in the soft sand. You watched how the sun started to get lower to the ocean, and when it was about to touch the water, Steve stood up and pulled you up with him too. 

"This all today had a meaning, I know you love the beach and that's where I wanted to take you to ask you something," He said. You looked at him with questioning eyes, but then, he bent down on one knee, pulling out a little velvet box from his pocket. You covered your mouth with your hand as Steve held the other. 

"Y/N, I have loved you since the moment we met and you've helped me through everything, and I'm really grateful for that. I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together. Y/N, will you do me the great honor of becoming my wife?" He asked. Tears of happiness were streaming down your face as you engulfed him in a hug. 

"Yes!" You basically yelled. You pulled back and he slid the ring onto your finger. You looked at it in awe and then you kissed him.

Tony Stark / Iron Man

"Ten more minutes!" Clint said. It was 23.50, ten minutes before the new year would start. All of the Avengers were gathered up in Avengers Tower to celebrate it and you were all having a great time. You noticed Tony sitting on the couch, uncharacteristically non-hyperverbal. 

You walked up to him and snapped him out of his trance. "Are you okay?" You asked. He nodded as he ran a hand over his face. 

"Just a bit tired, it's been a long day," He smiled. 

"Five minutes!" Natasha let you all know. 

"C'mon, let's watch the fireworks go off," You said and pulled Tony onto his feet. He hesitantly came with you. 

You looked at the clock. Two minutes left. 

You stared out of the window until you saw something move in the corner of your eye, you looked at Tony, but only to find him on one knee and holding a small box with a beautiful ring in it. 

"Y/N Y/L/N, we've been together for over four years now and I love you eternally, I can't even imagine a life without you. You made my life so much better and I don't know how I can ever repay you. And then again, by saying yes to me, I know I will never be able to repay you. Y/N, will you please marry me?" He spoke. You smiled widely and couldn't wait for him to finish.
