After they shared a cheese and sausage pizza at Grimaldi’s, Steve got them some strawberry ice cream before he took Aly home. All in all, the date had gone well although it hadn’t been what Aly had hoped for when she had envisioned how this was going to go. She was glad that Steve seemed to have enjoyed himself though. That had been the point of the date after all. She wanted to spoil Steve. She wanted to show him what he meant to her. He parked his motorcycle in front of her building to walk her up to her apartment but instead Aly sat down on the stoop and patted the spot next to her to get Steve to sit down with her. She hugged his arm with both her arms and leaned her head on his shoulder. She was content to sit with Steve for awhile right now and since he didn’t seem to mind, that was what Aly planned to do.

“I’m sorry I picked such a terrible place for our first official date,” Aly softly said, sounding a bit upset by the way things had gone. She looked up at him, her head still on his shoulder and a bit of a pout on her lips.

Steve laughed and shook his head, not sure why Aly seemed so upset about how tonight went. He brushed some hair out of her face with his other hand and kissed her forehead softly. He didn’t want her to feel like she’d done something wrong because it wasn’t a big deal to him. In the end, it had turned out to be a pretty amazing evening actually. “It wasn’t a bad place, Aly. Just not my cup of tea,” he said with a chuckle. Steve even gave her a shrug as he watched her while he spoke. “I felt like a fish out of water there. Grimaldi’s was good though.”

Aly softly laughed, nodding. She had to agree that their second restaurant was much better than the first. While Il Buco seemed like a great date choice, it had been ill-suited for them. Il Buco was a nice restaurant but even Aly hadn’t felt totally comfortable there. It was Grimaldi’s that had been a better fit for the two of them. They both felt comfortable there and the food was more than amazing. She’d always loved pizza from Grimaldi’s actually so it had been nice to take Steve there instead. “I’m glad you liked going there. It’s one of my favorite pizza places,” she said with a nod. Aly sat up a bit more now although she was still hugging his arm with her arms. “I had wanted it to be special. It didn’t turn out the way I’d imagined it.”

“And what part of tonight wasn’t special?” Steve asked, looking surprised. He didn’t see how she could say that tonight hadn’t gone well. Everything seemed perfect to him, even if they didn’t end up having dinner where Aly had intended them to go in the first place. “We went to a great place to eat, shared a great pizza and some great ice cream and now we’re getting to sit and talk and enjoy the nice weather. It doesn’t get better than this if you ask me.”

Aly looked away, trying to hide her blush. Her hand slipped down his arm until she could lace her fingers with his. She looked down when she felt Steve playing with her fingers and then looked up at him, smiling softly and giggling. It was at moments like this that she seemed to get so lost in him and Aly felt like that feeling was mutual.

Her eyes fluttered closed as she felt his fingertips lightly brushing her cheek and when he leaned in and softly pressed his lips to hers, Aly let go of his hand. Her fingertips lightly brushed his cheek and slowly moved to the back of his head, running through his hair a bit. She smiled against his lips when she felt Steve’s fingers tangling in her hair as well. She kissed him a bit harder and felt him respond by parting his lips slowly.

Aly’s tongue lightly brushed against Steve’s lips. He kissed her a bit harder then, the tip of his tongue teasing hers. Slowly her tongue slid into his mouth, exploring his mouth and playing with his tongue. When she felt him relax and give in to the kiss a bit more, Aly giggled against his lips. Steve pulled her closer, one hand on her hip as he tugged on it to try to press her body closer to his. This time it was Aly’s turn to pull back. Slowly she pulled back from the kiss until her forehead was softly resting on his. She brushed her nose against Steve’s, a soft smile on her lips as she stared into his eyes.

“Did you want to come up?” she asked, her voice barely a whisper.

Part of Steve wanted to say yes when she asked him that but part of him felt like it wasn’t a good idea. He didn’t want her to think that sex was all that he wanted from her right now. That wasn’t what he was looking for after all although he was well aware that he wouldn’t be able to tell her no if Aly wanted to have sex with him. The thing was, however, that he did want to come up to her apartment with her. Steve just couldn’t bring himself to say yes. He cupped her face in his hands and softly kissed her before standing up. “Will I see you tomorrow?” he asked. When he saw the disappointment on Aly’s face, Steve knelt down in front of her. He was cupping her face in his hands again, his thumbs gently brushing her cheekbones.

“It’s okay, Steve. Really,” Aly said with a nod. She grabbed his wrists with her hands and slowly pulled his hands away from her face with a soft smile. The fact that he had these old fashioned notions was starting to grate on her nerves a bit. She just wanted him to give in to what she knew Steve was feeling for her but if he wanted to wait, then Aly would wait. She wasn’t going to rush him into anything. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“You … you have to understand …”

Aly put her fingers to his lips and shook her head. She knew that he had some explanation for everything but she didn’t need to hear it. She knew that Steve wasn’t like most guys and he didn’t need to remind her of that. Aly wanted Steve to understand that everything was all right. No explanations needed.

“I said it’s all right. Steve, please,” Aly said as she brushed the back of her hand against his cheek. She was smiling as she stood, noticing that he stood up as well. Steve was standing on the sidewalk. Aly was on the first step but with her high heels on, she was eye level with him right now. “I’ll see you tomorrow. It’s Saturday and if you don’t have any plans, I’d like to take you somewhere. It might mean spending the whole day with me though. I don’t want you to agree to this if you don’t think you can handle hanging out all day with me.”

Steve chuckled and gave her a shrug. He wondered what she might have in mind. Whatever it was, it sounded like fun to him already. He was too curious not to say yes actually. “I don’t have any plans so I think I can manage that,” Steve said with a quick nod. If she wanted to spend all day with him, he didn’t know how he could tell her no after all. “Do I get to know where you want to take me?”

Aly laughed and shook her head. She was smiling now and couldn’t seem to stop smiling. “It’s a surprise. You’ll see,” she said with another laugh, tapping the tip of his nose with her fingertip. She was glad that Steve wanted to spend more time with her. She already had tomorrow all planned out in her head and Aly knew it was going to go much better than this date had. “Meet me here at 9 AM. I expect you’ll be on time.”

Steve chuckled and nodded. He caught her hand and kissed the top of it before letting go of her hand, chuckling again when he saw a light blush on Aly’s cheeks after he kissed her hand. The fact that his manners could make her blush was amusing to him. “Yes, ma’am,” Steve said as he took a half step away from her with a grin. “I’ll be here. You certainly better be ready.”

Aly laughed as she started up the stairs with a grin on her face. “I’ll be ready. You’re the one who’s going to have to worry about whether or not you’re ready,” she said as she reached the top of the stairs. She turned around, grinning at Steve. Aly put her hands on her hips, trying to look as intimidating as possible. “You know, one day I’ll get you to come up to my apartment with me. One day I’ll get you to spend the night with me, Steve Rogers.”

Steve chuckled and gave her a shrug in response. He watched as she opened the front door and waited around to be sure that she made it up to her apartment safely. He didn’t say anything until she’d headed into the building. “Maybe one day you will. Just not today,” he said to himself with a shake of his head.
