Chapter 44 Growing Up

Once the lion showed its power, the little animals didn't dare to pant loudly.

Peter turned his head stiffly to Ned, his neck crackling; but Ned seemed to have lost his mind, lost in his own thoughts.

His gaze was still stuck on the two of them and he couldn't take it back.Captain America is helping the girl tie a scarf. The scarf is smooth and beautiful. In his hands, he can change the shape arbitrarily until it becomes the one that suits the girl.She drooped her eyelids, shyly rubbing the umbrella at her feet, until the translucent snow tracks melted away.

She raised her head again, her eyes were only fixed on the blond-haired young man, her eyes seemed to be glued to him, so tangled up that she could touch sugar, anyone who was blind could understand how harmonious their relationship was.

She looked so happy, her whole face seemed to light up, Ned saw fixedly.

He shook his head and suddenly said "ah".

He felt a little inexplicably melancholy.It's not very depressed, it's just sour, but it's more joyful and relieved like empathy.

At this moment, his brother also put his shoulders on his shoulders in a tacit understanding, as if to say "think about it".

Think about it, Ned.He repeated to himself in his mind.

Do you have any other unreasonable thoughts?Your idol and your goddess together, isn't this the happiest ending for all!

The dark clouds above his head were suddenly blown away, and the whole person laughed silly.

Peter put a heavy hand on his shoulder: he suspected that Ned had been hit too hard and his head was overloaded at the moment.

However, he obviously didn't expect that there would be something more suspicious in the future——

Ned smiled innocently, and suddenly put the bouquet of flowers he was holding into the Captain's hand, and said, "Here, Captain!"

"..."

Peter collapsed on the spot: Brother, what kind of reverse operation is this!

From the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Captain America, who seemed to be in a daze, holding the flower that Ned forced over, not knowing what to do with it.

Ned, however, went on emphatically:

"I wish you happiness!"

... Although I don't know why this little guy suddenly changed his mind, but the mind of a young man is always ups and downs like clouds.

Captain America understands very well, his small flower background plate is still full of spring flowers, but the black is gone, and it is a warm pink.

He said "thank you" sincerely, and the heat on Abby's face never faded, turning red like a spicy crayfish.

Mrs. Federson, who was watching the play, grinned cheerfully: It's nice to be young.

The four of them left the flower shop and parted ways.Abby said "Goodbye, Peter and Ned" when she was leaving, and Ned's knees gave way, and he almost fell to his knees in the snow with excitement; Peter saw that he seemed to be going crazy again, so he quickly covered his mouth Tow away.

There were hardly any people on the street on the way home.On a snowy day, even the birds are reluctant to move their nests, and the streets are very quiet, except for the muffled sound of sporadic snow falling on the umbrella.

Abby was wrapped tightly and was held by Steve, and the two walked home slowly.Seeing Steve holding an umbrella, holding flowers, and embracing her, she couldn't help but suggest:

"That... shall I get it?"

She exhaled a cloud of white air, and awkwardly reached out her round gloved hand to grab it, but Steve avoided it.

He smiled and hugged people and flowers together:

"Need not."

Even Captain America has a little selfishness, and he doesn't want his girl to hold flowers from others.What's more, how thoughtful he was. If Ned hadn't suddenly changed his mind, he wouldn't know who would be holding the flower now.

When he thought about her holding the irises he gave him back then, his heart became hot; if there were other flower givers who could make her show a similar expression of surprise, he would be more than a little unhappy.

A sea of ​​vinegar can't be overstated.

He didn't want to make such associations to scare himself, so he quickly drove them out of his mind.Looking at the person who was being led by him in his arms and still following the same steps, he suddenly remembered another thing.

"Abby."

"Ok?"

She raised her face to look at him.

"I brought you the golden flower, just like last time, it's what you need..."

Abby almost slips on the snow; Steve grabs her.She held his arm with joy on her face:

"Really? That's really, really good!"

Happiness leaked from her crooked eyes and grinning mouth, like a child uncorking champagne for the first time.The smile turned into sweet wine, but it couldn't penetrate Steve's heart.

He thought: This is indeed something very important to her.

Abby itself is like a treasure, she is there, waiting for him to dig forever.When he dug deeper and deeper and found that there was an end beyond an end, it didn't feel very good.

It is true that every man likes challenges in his bones, but if there is something else to control her mood besides you, and its influence seems to be faintly greater than you——

This irritated Steve.

But he didn't have an attack. A smart hunter not only knows how to "take advantage of the situation", but is more often used to "waiting for a good opportunity".Listening to Abby's question of "how did you get it", he explained patiently:

"We originally wanted to find a good opportunity to spray Loki and ask him about the whereabouts of that kind of flower; but Loki has always been vigilant, and our actions failed."

"We thought we could only start with Thor, but this method is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. Asgard is such a large area, it is really time-consuming and labor-intensive to find."

"But Loki offered: If he sprayed his brother Thor in front of him, he might be in a good mood and maybe there is room for negotiation."

With her eyes closed, Abby could imagine the horned god, leaning against the wall, smiling cynically.He likes to play pranks the most.

Thor agreed, and it was a piece of cake for him.

The two brothers faced each other, and Steve pressed the nozzle of the truum spray on Thor.

Loki's trembling green eyes stared at Thor for a long time, and his voice was unexpectedly soft.

He said, "Say something to your brother."

Thor didn't get a lump in his throat, and poured out all the truth: "Uh, I want to say, Loki, although we are not blood brothers, you know that I have been used to your company for too long... Although we are walking On different roads, you seem to be getting farther away from me every minute. But I always feel that you have never left, in my heart."

Thor wanted to cover his mouth in horror, but the truth kept coming out of his mouth:

"I still love you, brother."

After he finished speaking, his eyes were so desperate that it looked like he had just destroyed an Asgard with his own hands.

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Steve suddenly felt that he shouldn't exist.

Loki stared at him without saying a word, but the expression on his face was either crying or laughing, the corner of his frozen mouth and eyes so green that they could drip water formed a strange combination; it wasn't until ten seconds later that the combination was confirmed. break in.

He twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed:

"Stupid, stupid, big fool."

In the past, Thor, who was ridiculed three times in a row, would have yelled "Don't stop me! Let me hit him!", but today he seems to have heard a little unfinished sound from these few words of criticism, as if there is something What belongs to the past is picked up.

He suddenly smirked, and Loki turned his head coldly.

……

"That's how it is."

Loki found hellebores, and more than one.This was beyond the expectations of the Avengers. He bathed in their suspicious eyes and rolled his eyes exactly like Tony's.

"It sounds like their relationship is very good." Abby only whispered, but did not comment on the others.

She doesn't have a bad impression of Thor, but her favorability for his younger brother Cthulhu has repeatedly dropped below the minimum.She didn't like him, not only because of the lost hellebore and his tricks, but more importantly because of the broken necklace.

Although it looks like it has been restored on the outside, it is empty inside, and the lost warmth can never be regained.

She thought of Fred again from the necklace, and couldn't help but feel lost for a while.

Steve glances at her profile.She was thinking about things that made her unhappy, mostly memories.The last time she knelt in the snow and cried hoarsely, she was also heartbroken.But it was much worse last time than this time.

He unconsciously frowned.

"Abby, can you tell me—" he asked softly, "what is this flower doing to you?"

Abby responded without thinking: "To reunite with a very important friend."

She tugged at the sleeves that were wet with snow, and added in a low voice: "...he is no longer here."

Words are tough.It was not pleasant for her to rediscover this fact.

Her attitude was aboveboard, but Steve didn't take a long breath because of this "innocence".He even started to feel annoyed at his ignorance, and the arm he held her silently strangled her, as if to transmit strength.

Abby wasn't wallowing in grief.She pulled herself together quickly, and even stood on tiptoe with a slight smile, and kissed him on the chin.

The first kiss was too low, so she jumped up again, and at the same time put her arms up, the second kiss was printed on his cheek, and then on his lips.

Steve kisses her back.Abby was very bold when she made those tiny movements just now, but when he responded she was suddenly shy again, with one hand resting on his chest and the other hand pulling down the umbrella, trying to block both of them.

When they finally parted, Steve planted a kiss on her forehead.There was a longer pause this time, and Abby felt his warm lips like a seal of sealant, sealing off all the pain that hadn't yet come to her.

She was flat and brand new again.

"It's okay, life is always getting better." She buried her face in his clothes, which smelled of flowers, "I now know the way to see Fred again. You helped me find it." Hellebore, you saved my life."

"After I met Steve, I was always lucky. You must be my lucky star."

Her blue eyes sparkled with comet light, and those little comets thumped into Steve's arms, making his chest swell.

He thought: Even if he gave her all his luck, he would be willing.

As long as it makes her happy.

Abby put her arms around him like a big plush bear.She murmured somewhat stubbornly:

"I won't let anyone take you away, they don't like you like me."

It was shocking that such a confession fell into Steve's ears.He closed his eyes, couldn't bear the boiling mood, hugged and rubbed her with one hand, Abby nestled in his arms, which was more tofu than tofu, and obediently let others rub her into a round shape.

"better."

He compliments her.Starting today, that British girl with low self-esteem and timidity has officially grown up.
