New Start | lostshieldandhammer

Stiles kept hold of Chris and rested his head on the other’s shoulder. “Me too,” he answered quietly. “Chris… maybe we should just go… leave… get out of Beacon Hills. Everyone else is gone. Why are we staying?” He pulled back. “Scott doesn’t even want us here anymore… fine… let me handle it all. We don’t owe anyone else anything. Not now… Peter’s gone… Derek’s gone… they’re all… gone… we could go somewhere, start over… you and me…”

Chris listened frowning a little. Scott had just…not been who he had thought – had turned into someone not even his daughter would have loved. IT hurt to think about, but as much as Chris had tried to be a supporter of the pack, when Scott had refused to be reasonable, Chris had given his loyalties to Peter and Stiles. Now though…Stiles was right. “With nothing left, we could go anywhere you want.” he agreed. “Is there anywhere in particular you had in mind?”

“I know you miss Peter… but you still have me…” (from Stiles to Chris)

Chris looked up and smiled, reaching to pull Stiles close to him. “You miss him, too.” he added, running a hand through dark hair and leaning to rest his forehead on the younger man’s. “We just didn’t get a lot of time with him. We have to get through this together. I’m just…tired of everyone I love dying around me.”

Pardon My Hand | lostshieldandhammer

Steve listened to Clint, checked his arm over, and nodded slowly. “Fury tends to over-worry about all of us, Clint, but you most especially because of everything that happened with Phil. He knew how much Phil meant to everyone in SHIELD and he knows how much you mean to all of us. We didn’t want to lose Phil. We sure as hell don’t want to lose you, either.” He kissed the other softly.

“Let’s go to Dom’s,” he suggested. “They have that deal with the two large pizzas and the garlic knots. It’ll be plenty of food for tonight and tomorrow.”

Clint rolled his eyes – although it was loving – as Steve checked his arm over. “I;m not going down without a much harder fight. I have a fiance who needs me.” He said, kissing back as he ran a hand through blonde hair. “I love you,” he said softly, leaning to touch his forehead to Steve’s. “I’m not going anywhere.” He waited a moment before pulling away so they could head downstairs. “Sounds good. We can pick it up on the way home and then snuggle on the couch or in bed for the rest of the night.”

New Home | lostshieldandhammer

Steve glanced at the out stretched hand but then pushed up to his feet on his own, despite being a bit shaky and unstable. “Fine. I”ll give you a week,” he said quietly. He knew his heat would hit, though, sooner than that if he stayed around an alpha for too long. His old pack alpha had refused to give him suppressants or any kind of birth control but Steven had never carried which had pissed off his former alpha. He glanced at Peter, could feel the power rolling off the alpha and it scared him just a bit, but he followed a few steps behind him.

The older wolf was calm as he led the way to his car. He walked to the trunk and popped it, pulling out a large duffel bag and setting it on top of the trunk when it closed. “They gave me what they claimed to be your personal effects, but would you mind verifying if anything is missing or not yours?” He asked. “There’s also a doctor on the way home if you’d like to get checked out or get any kind of medicine. I know sometimes a new environment and pack can trigger heats and I won’t make you uncomfortable if I can avoid it.”

Bonded Love | lostshieldandhammer

Steve curled up against him once more, resting his head on the alpha’s chest and trying to relax as the movie started. He loved the warmth radiating from the alpha as they lay there together. “What were Bucky and Phil gonna do tonight since they aren’t gonna be here with us?” he asked after a little while of watching the movie on the screen.

Clint shrugged. “I think Phil said they were gonna catch a movie or something. He’s probably going to go and ream the officers who took you in because that alpha tried to have their say with a bonded omega. If they think I was scary, they’ll faint over the paperwork and IA investigation Phil will no doubt start.” He chuckled a little. “No one is ever going to tear us apart. I plan on keeping that promise.” He petted his hand through blonde hair, adjusting to kiss Steve. “Do you need anything, love?”

Altogether | lostshieldandhammer

Stiles nodded and managed to eat a little more of the food, leaving about a fourth of it behind as he set the plate aside and proceeded to crawl out of bed, rummaging through his bag for clean clothing. When he found pajama pants, he glanced up at the other two wolves. “Did either of you bring an extra shirt I could have?” he asked in a small, quiet voice. 

Peter and Derek looked at each and chuckled at the question. “We did.” Peter answered and got up to grab the bag they had packed, bringing it to the room and setting it down. “Do you want to shower? We brought towels, too.” he offered. 

Derek walked over and pressed a kiss to Stiles’ head. “It’s just the three of us, so tell us what you want to do and we’ll follow your lead, okay?” he asked, smiling reassuringly. “You know we’ll take care of you.”

Pardon My Hand | lostshieldandhammer

Steve groaned softly into that kiss, hands sliding along Clint’s back and sides. “Yeah, well, he’s done now so can we please get the hell out of here and go home? Maybe pick up some pizzas to take back with us?”

Clint smiled as he pulled away, lacing his fingers with Steve’s as they headed to his car. “Pizza sounds great.” He agreed. “And despite what Fury thinks, I’m fine from that hit I took. It was a graze.” He rolled his eyes as he took his jacket off and laid it in the backseat, a bandage wrapped around his upper right arm. “I’m not the fragile maiden in need of rescuing he likes to portray me as.” He hated when he got hit worse than that, because it always took a while to recover good, and Fury would preach at the team to keep an eye on him for weeks. He shook his head to dispel that thought in favor of smiling at Steve. “Where do you wanna get the pizza?”

“Would we still have the same anniversary even after a hundred years?” Bucky asked as he skimmed through some more information on the library computer.

Steve frowned softly. “Why wouldn’t we?” he asked, walking over to Bucky and standing behind him, hands on the other’s shoulders. “What are you looking for, honey?”

@themusechronicles

Bucky shook his head. “I’m not really looking for anything. Sometimes things I read trigger memories.” He replied, flattening the paper on the table to reveal the engagement announcements. “Something just got me thinkin’.”

Steve saw the engagement announcements in the paper and raised a brow, moving to sit beside Bucky slowly. “Do you remember our anniversary?” he asked quietly. “What are you thinking about?”

Bucky nodded. “I mean…would it still stand even though we lost each other?” He asked, brushing his fingers over the paper. “Shuri said that us…that we don’t have to hide anymore?” He licked his lips, blue eyes hopeful. “Could…could we finally do that?”

Those We Leave Behind | lostshieldandhammer

Steve sighed softly and rested a hand on Peter’s leg. “Peter, please. There’s no need for you to be getting upset at Stiles. He has a point. The pack, not including the extended, non-shapeshifters, only lost Theo. Stiles has a point. It’s strange that Thanos’ power didn’t extend throughout the pack even more.” He glanced back at Stiles and Derek.

“Thank you for letting me know about Clint. Next time you talk to him, ask him and the kids to come out here. I want them closer. Whenever Tony and Bruce figure out what we can do to fix things, I want to make sure Clint’s here and ready to go and that the kids are taken care of while we’re gone.”

Peter calmed visibly as Steve touched him, leaning to press his face into his mate’s neck. “I’m sorry.” He murmured softly. “Emotions are just high.” He relaxed into Steve, the most vulnerable he’d been since Steve had come home alone.

Stiles looked at Derek, then back at where Steve and Peter were. “I will. He calls at least once a day to check up on you.” He replied. “I don’t think he’ll have any problems coming here. Derek and I can set up the spare rooms.” He watched the two for a moment. “Is there anything else we can do?”
