Forever and a Day

My gift for the Samsteve Gift Exchange for Chilibabie07 who requested domestic fluff. Thanks to the hosts for organizing this great event @samstevesmallgifts!

Summary: There has been a spark lying dormant underneath Sam’s skin from the day his was born. He had gone through his life never knowing it was there until a whispered confession after a bad mission set it ablaze. Like a hungry fire, it soared through Sam destroying everything he ever thought about love, promises, and the concept of forever.

-

Sam brought their hands up to his lips to brush a kiss onto Steve’s knuckles. “Steve, marry me.”

A blush crept up Steve’s neck filling his cheeks before he ducks his head down to hide it. “Sam, were engaged.”

“I know,” Sam shrugged. “So, marry me.”

There has been a spark lying dormant underneath Sam’s skin from the day his was born. He had gone through his life never knowing it was there until a whispered confession after a bad mission set it ablaze. Like a hungry fire, it soared through Sam destroying everything he ever thought about love, promises, and the concept of forever.

Suddenly, forever just wasn’t long enough.

“Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock”

Laying between the partly drooled upon pillow and the heavy knitted comforter, Sam’s foot twitches out and kicks into the empty space in the bed.

“Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring”

His lips twitch and his head buries slightly more into the stolen pillow hiding his ears from the rest of the room.

“Dancin’ and prancin’ in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty airrr!”

Sam’s arm shots out and the pillow swings out of his grasp to collide in his fiancé’s face. A loud laugh ringing into the air has Sam lifting his head to meet Steve’s grinning face, baby blue pillow clenched in his big hands. Despite himself, Sam couldn’t fight the smile coming at the sight of him.

“I thought we agreed no pracin’ until the sun’s high in the sky.”

“Ohh,” Steve teases. He crawls back onto the bed on all fours keeping those beautiful eyes locked on Sam’s. The familiar heat builds in the pit of his stomach as Steve slowly moves closer and closer until their lips are brushing. “Bet I can change your mind.”

“Hmm,” unable to resist, Sam grabs his chin and pulls their lips together. The break together once for him to whisper, “I bet you can” before their rejoined once more. Kissing Steve has always been one of his favorite past times ever since the super solider blurted out his clumsy attempt at a love confession after a near fatal mission 2 years prior. Sam had kissed a lot of people in his life, but none had felt quite like this. When he and Steve kissed it felt like an explosion erupting beneath his skin and rushing through his veins until not even the cold December air pumping in through slightly cracked window was able to smother its heat.

Suddenly overwhelmed, Sam pulled back and buried his face into Steve’s shoulder. He took a few long slow breaths in and out memorizing Steve’s scent as his lover’s arms circled around his waist pulling them even closer. “Steve,” Sam whispers into the small space between their bodies.

“Sam.” Steve responds as if his name was both an answer and a prayer.

Sam places a small kiss onto Steve’s neck, right where the scar from the incident that almost separated them permanently once laid. The mark may be gone, but its memory always stays with Sam. Reminds him to embrace this love he has for Steve during every moment for every day. “Merry Christmas baby.”

He doesn’t need to see Steve’s face to feel his smile.

~

The wind blew heavy against the windows as Sam sips his hot chocolate. Steve’s humming as he bounces around the kitchen taking his job as ‘Sam’s cookies assistant’ seriously. After years of holiday baking, they have easily fallen into the routine of Sam handling the preparation and Steve taking care of decorating and cleaning up. Sam could wait in their living room until his lover is finished, maybe go find a movie for them to snuggle too, but something is keeping his feet planted there. Frosting spilled all over his silly Captain America themed apron (a birthday gift from Sam’s nephew Jody that Steve still denies tearing up about) did nothing to dim the light Steve carried throughout their kitchen. There was little sunlight coming from their windows as the heavy forecast of snow blanketing the town blocked its beam, yet their house still glowed as if the sun decided to kiss them personally. Steve’s smile as he created icicles on top of their sugar cookies chased away the coldness of the snowstorm outside and instead filled the air with the same warmth as his kiss. Steve was a spark unfazed by any outside elements that never failed to ignite Sam just by being in the same room as him.

Sam couldn’t never get enough of it. He wanted that spark, that warmth forever.

“Sam? Is everything alright?” Sam didn’t even notice Steve moving until those frosting covered hands were reaching out to take his.

Sam brought their hands up to his lips to brush a kiss onto Steve’s knuckles. “Steve, marry me.”

A blush crept up Steve’s neck filling his cheeks before he ducks his head down to hide it. “Sam, were engaged.”

“I know,” Sam shrugged. “So, marry me.”

That finally got Steve to look at him again. Blush staining his cheeks as he stared back at Sam in confusion. “Today?”

“Right now.” Sam brought their hands up again admiring the way their engagement bands complimented each other. “I don’t want to wait anymore Steve. I want this for as long as forever will last.”

“You have me forever. For forever and a day Sam, I’m yours.”

There has been a spark lying dormant underneath Sam’s skin from the day his was born. With every relationship and experience he had, that spark remained untouched. Until Steve. Steve reached a part of him that no one else has and set that spark ablaze leaving it to burn through Sam’s skin every time he’s near. As their embrace warms the cold Christmas air, Sam knows the love they have will last longer than forever.

Prompt: SamSteve + Christmastime

I tried to work the kids and the dancing in there too! Hope you like it! 

Another strong wind rattles the shutters, making Sam look out the window. The snow seems to have picked up over the past hour, making him optimistic for a white Christmas. He sees more than a few lopsided snowmen in his future. 

“Looks like the sleds will be put to good use,” he calls over his shoulder, towards the kitchen. 

“Mmhmm,” the response is garbled and unclear. Sam rolls his eyes. 

“There better be enough cookies left to take to my mom’s tomorrow, Steve.” He can almost see the guilty hunch of Steve’s shoulders as the snap of closing tupperware sounds. 

Sam huffs a laugh and squats to readjust the gift under the tree, turning it this way and that to find the best angle to illuminate the metallic wrapping paper. He catches Figaro, the girls’ moody cat, eyeing the tree from his perch on the back of the couch. 

“Don’t even think about it,” Sam warns, shooing the little beast from the room. 

He straightens, taking a step back to admire the view. Steve thinks rearranging the furniture was going overboard, but Sam’s superior eye knows that a tree in the northwest corner means optimal lighting on Christmas morning. So they had to shift the couches and rewire the entertainment center, big whoop. It’s their first Christmas all in one house, of course Sam’s going all out. It would all be worth it to see the looks on the kid’s faces. 

He’s always loved Christmas. Loved the lights and the music and the time with his family. More than anything, he’s loved making it a magical time for his girls. It’s always worked out well for them before. Six years ago, Alex and Xela’s adoption was finalized on December 13th. The year after that, Figaro wandered in through the kitchen window the week after Thanksgiving and never left. And last year, Sam met his fiancé at a mutual friend’s white elephant party. This season was special to him. Sacred. And he was going to make this one perfect for his new family and their new home. 

Sam checks the other decorations in the room, glancing over the garland around the bannister, the stockings on the mantle and the mistletoe hanging in the doorway. He sighs, satisfied. Everything’s in its place for the three eight year olds who would come barreling down the stairs in just a few hours. 

Behind him, there’s the scratch of his father’s old record player and Leslie Odom Jr’s warm voice begins to croon. Strong arms wrap around him from behind and Steve’s eternally warm chest presses against Sam’s back.

I’ll be home for Christmas

You can count on me 

Sam sighs again, letting the music wash over him. “You think they’ll like it?”

Steve’s chin settles on his shoulder. “Without a doubt.” His arms tighten around Sam’s middle. “Paige is just thrilled to have a real tree this year and I’m sure Alex and Xela already know what you’re like.” 

Sam thwacks Steve’s hands where they’re crossed over his stomach. He’s not that bad. Just a bit… exuberant. “I just want this to be perfect for them. Between the move, and wedding planning, and the busy season at the store. I haven’t spent as much time with them as I’d like lately. There’s been so much change in so little time. I want this to be easy for them. I want to start making memories together.” His eyes flick around the room, checking again that everything is set just right. 

Steve tugs on Sam’s hip, spinning him around, and bringing their joined hands to the air by his shoulder. The other slides around Sam’s waist, pulling him close to slowly sway from side to side. Sam instinctively reaches for Steve’s shoulder and laughs.

“Oh ho, look at you!”

“I got moves,” Steve grins, puffing out his chest. 

“Mmm,” Sam hums. “And why have I never seen them before?” He smirks, tilting his head to look Steve in the eye.

“Gotta keep something in the holster.” Steve pivots on one heel, spinning them in an easy, if only slightly awkward turn. “Keep you on your toes.”

“That you do, love.” Sam leans into his embrace, letting Steve lead them in a slow box step. 

“You don’t have to worry,” Steve whispers in his ear. “The kids know. How much you love them, that these changes are just as much about them as us. That we’re a family now. They know, Sam. And that’s because of you. The way you love us. The way you’ve steered us all through this year. You’re an incredible father.” 

Sam blinks back grateful tears. “So are you,” he whispers into Steve’s neck. He can feel the heat rise in his fiancé’s face. It’s a title Steve’s been hesitant to take on, but could never deny. He’s the only father Paige has ever known, the rest is just technicalities. It was the first thing Sam loved about Steve, the way he loves that little girl. 

Steve’s fingers twist in the soft cotton at the small of Sam’s back. 

“Merry Christmas, Sam.” 

“Merry Christmas, Steve.

If only in my dreams

What Makes You Happy?

He wasn’t sure exactly what it was that prompted him into the sudden rash of impulsiveness. Impulsiveness that he generally didn’t feel quite as strongly or give himself permission to indulge in nearly as freely unless faced with fight. What he was sure about though, had felt it somewhere bone-deep, that he would regret it if he didn’t take the chance.
