#and whoops messed up the toenails trying to clean up my skin

[void-tiger]

I am convinced that my high school classmate who did her own nail art on her own relatively short nails must have been a wizard.

Steve Rogers was perfect - okay he was far from perfect. He ate way too much pizza, stayed up too late and was way too messy in their shared apartment. But to Y/N, he was perfect. He was kind and funny and sweet. He always made her laugh no matter what, helped her study and even offered to share his pizza when he ordered it at 2am in the morning. Y/N was head over heels for Steve Rogers and he had no idea.

Steve definitely saw her as nothing more than a best friend. They shared an apartment in college, they were both art majors. Steve was an actual good artist, while she panicked and decided that this is what she wanted to do in college. Solid life choices. But without art she wouldn’t have met Steve and Steve was everything. Even if he was oblivious to her overwhelming love for him.

After going to visit her family back home for a long weekend, she arrived back to their apartment on Tuesday evening. She had skipped class to spend an extra day with her family, she supposed how much could she miss in art class? You could either draw or you couldn’t. And although she had always thought she was a solid artist, after being around seriously talented people, she wasn’t sure anymore.

So when she returned to her apartment, she was ready to sleep until she had class at 2pm on Wednesday. Opening the door, she almost died. The entire apartment was clean. Steve Rogers had cleaned their apartment? Were pigs flying!?

And they had a brand new couch and it was white. Great choice, Rogers! She shook her head, going to dump her bags in her room and get some sleep. 

The next day, she was heading back from class with Steve and he was rambling on about their new couch.

‘Don’t you love it? This couple down the street were getting rid of it, and it was eighty bucks. I love her!’ he said as he opened the door. 

‘So you cleaned the apartment just for a new couch?’ she laughed as she grabbed a soda from the fridge.

‘Obviously!’ he said with a short laugh. ‘She is the love of my life. I needed to impress her. I couldn’t bring her into our shithole.’

‘Hey, hey, hey!’ she yelled, ‘it’s all your mess!’

‘You’re not rushing to clean it,’ he retorted.

‘It’s not my mess!’ she said poking him in the side. She was screaming as he picked her up, tickling her sides, she was kicking and giggling, trying to catch her breath. Suddenly, he had her pinned to the wall, his lips just inches from her face. His hands had stilled as his breath tickled her face, and for a moment she felt like it was only the two of them in the world. His eyes dropped from hers to look at her lips for only a second before he slowly began to move closer to her. Her eyelids fluttered shut, inhaling deeply as she waited for Steve’s lips to meet hers.

‘HEY!’ 

The door opening and Natasha Romanoff bouncing in broke the spell, and Steve stepped away from you.

‘Sup Nattie?’ he said, grabbing a left over slice of pizza. Honestly, how was he so ripped when all he ate was shitty food.

‘We are going to Tony’s party tonight. It is gonna be insane!’ she said, with a smirk. She waggled her eyebrows at her best friends.

Steve was in love with Y/N, and Y/N was in love with Steve. But neither of them had any idea how the other felt about them. They were idiots, Nat thought. And she was planning to get them to get together at the party tonight. She had no idea that she just walked in on them almost getting together. But Nat had her plan and she was going to see her plan out.

‘Me and Sharon will pick you up at nine, okay?’ she said, as she sat on the counter.

‘Sure,’ both of them said with a huffy sigh.

Natasha rolled her eyes playfully. 

‘Oh, and Y/N, wear that new red dress you got,’ she said with a wink before bouncing out of their apartment. 

Y/N was painting her toenails on the new white couch, as she watched a rerun of Real Housewives of...somewhere. Bucky had gotten her hooked when they were in high school. Bastard. Steve was out doing something or other and she wasn’t sure he would be back. Probably not until about five minutes before the party, where he would change into a basically skin tight shirt and jeans and be ready to go.

How was that fair!?

As she moved on the couch, her eyes never leaving the TV as she dipped the brush back into the nail polish jar. Except that she missed and the contents went everywhere, all over Steve’s pride and joy. His new WHITE couch was now stained bright red.

SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!

She was panicking maybe she could flip the cushion, he’d be none the wiser.

‘Hey, princess,’ his familiar voice called as he opened the door. 

FUCK!

She jumped up and sat on the red mark. Great! Now she was stuck sitting there, like an idiot.

I just spilled red paint on his new couch! Do I confess or do I tell him I started my period? she thought.

‘Eh...you okay, kiddo?’ he asked as he dumped the grocery bag on the kitchen table.

‘Yeeeeeeeaahhhhhhhhhh,’ she said with a smile.

‘Are...are you sure?’ he asked.

She nodded, ‘Yup!’ popping the ‘p’ for effect.

‘Can you help me with these? I bought your favourite poptarts!’ he said, holding the bag up.

SHIT!

‘Um...no....’

‘Y/N, come onnnnnnn!’ Steve cried throwing his hands up in the air. ‘I spent my hard earned money on your favourite junk food and you won’t even help me unpack?’

She nodded, ‘That’s exactly it!’

He just chuckled, dropping the bag again before hurtling himself into the living room and on top of her. His hands were quick to tickle her all over and once again she was a howling mess, tears streaming down her cheeks as he tickle attacked her. 

‘Stop! Stop! Stop!’ she screeched as his fingers inched up her shirt. And they both froze when his fingers came in contact with the skin under her breasts, his hands grazing the lacy fabric. His eyes locked on hers and hers on his, and this time they weren’t going to let anyone interrupt them. His lips crashed against hers, her legs wrapping around his waist and her fingers tangling in his blonde locks. Her mouth fell open in a moan, giving him access to push his tongue against hers. And it was like they should have been doing this their entire life. Their tongues danced in perfect snyc, like they were made for one another. She rolled her hips up to met his and he let out a soft groan.

He pulled her up so she was straddling him and his hands went to squeeze her ass and-

‘Y/N?’ he asked, pulling away, eyebrow raised. ‘Did you pee your pants?’

‘What? No!’ she gasped, as he pulled his hand from her ass to look at the sticky red substance.

‘Shit...’

‘It’s shit?’ he asked, eyes wide.

‘No...it’s...I ruined your new couch and I spilled nail polish on it...’

‘Oh...well we can just flip the cushion and...’

He looked at her, a smirk plastered on his very handsome face, his eyes darkening with lust. She swallowed hard, trying to control her heavy breathing.

‘And?’

‘I’m sure we can think of something you can do to make up for it,’ he purred before pulling her in for another kiss.
