"I don't think any of them thought about talking back after that," he says, fondly, remembering how quickly they'd all fallen in line after that. He certainly hadn't, but he had felt his pulse quicken a little every time that Peggy had made an appearance.
It's still hard to believe that he's really holding her in his arms, having his first dance with the woman of his dreams. Or that the warm smile looking up at him is just for him. "I haven't, really," he admits as they sway. "Everything has been a bit of a blur. Howard's been helping me get settled and he's held off on announcing that they found me." Something that he's infinitely grateful for, or else this wouldn't be possible. While he had signed on to be Captain America, he had never anticipated or wanted the fame that had come with it.
"I've been trying to catch up on the last year." But his first priority had been to find her. "A lot has changed."
