She doesn't want to think about it like that, but Steve is unfortunately somewhat right. After all, they've spent so long apart because of missions. What happens if they're separated again? For all that she wants to think about marriage and a future with Steve, the children they might have, they have to live in the now.
"Steve, I'm not going anywhere," she vows, because they can try and send her away, but Peggy will simply refuse. If they think that they can give her orders that she disagrees with, they'll have another thing coming. "Are you really going to let the men at the SSR give you orders?"
"When it comes to you? Probably not. I'm not going to let them order me away from you," Steve says, firm on that account. He's never going to let someone tell him he can't be with Peggy again - not now and not in the future.
"I can be stubborn as hell when I want to be. It's one of my worse qualities."
"Good," she says firmly, her eyes closed not by will, but simple requirements and a need for sleep. She's curled in with Steve and she doesn't mean to leave him, not even after this mission is through and she has to hand in all her papers and rings back to the agency. She'll tell them that she's simply decided to keep Steve out of all of it.
"You are a stubborn, overly dramatic bastard," she agrees through a yawn, tightening her hold on him. "Stubbornly keeping us awake, in point of fact."
