"Om"

At 10 o'clock in the evening, with the distortion of the light in the dark, Merlin and Steve returned to New York.

The nightlife of this city is very rich. At this time, it is the time when men and women are the most unscrupulous, but unfortunately, neither Merlin nor Steve have the intention to join the young people to revel in time.

"You know how to get to the bird watching club, right?"

Merlin pushed his glasses and a message was sent out. He stood on this slightly remote street and said to Steve around him:

"Would you like to change your clothes? I mean, you have to meet your long-lost lover, maybe it should be more formal."

"This is enough."

Steve wore a checkered shirt that he just bought today, loose jeans, black combat boots, and a black flight jacket with a silver dog tag hanging around his neck. He looked very young and very chic.

Although the camouflage mask on his face made him look less handsome, the slightly melancholic temperament on his body and his strong body always attracted attention.

When he and Merlin were walking under the street lamp, there would always be a lot of girls' eyes on him.

"They like you, Steve."

Merlin whistled slightly and said to Steve:

"Will these passionate little girls remind you of those fans? I heard that at the end of World War II, there were many beautiful girls who wrote love letters to you. It is said that even Miss Monroe..."

"Monroe is my friend."

Steve casually said:

"We used to perform on stage together... I was still selling bonds at the time, and the rumors were all fake. I never dated Monroe, but we did eat together."

"Well, it really is an experienced guy."

Merlin took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. He stood at a crossroads and stopped moving forward.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

Steve looked at Merlin, who shrugged and said lightly:

"No, I'm waiting for my car."

"Boom, boom, boom"

As soon as the voice fell, the low engine sound came from the other side of the street. In Steve’s slightly surprised gaze, a black raptor pickup truck that was 3 meters high, like a small tank, rushed all the way to a The perfect side swing stopped in front of Merlin's eyes, and the doors opened at the same moment, just like inviting Merlin to ride.

But Steve saw clearly that there was no one in the cab.

"Autopilot?"

Steve asked curiously:

"Have your technology level been so high?"

"Well, this is troublesome to explain to an elderly person like you."

Merlin stepped on the pedal and sat in the cab. He waved at Steve. He said:

"So I won't explain it. Get on the bus and let's go to the bird watching club."

After a while, the heavy pickup started again, carrying two people towards the old town.

Merlin was pretending to be steering the steering wheel. In fact, this was Horus driving himself.

But Merlin did not want to expose the Autobots' secrets so early, because nominally, Horus did not belong to SHIELD, it was Merlin's private property.

Although Steve is trustworthy, his level of confidentiality has not yet been determined. The rules are the rules, and things must be done in accordance with the rules.

"I chatted with Sharon today."

Steve was sitting on the co-pilot. He looked at the brightly lit city outside the window. This city was completely different from what he remembered. He said:

"Sharon said that your main job in these years is to deal with aliens, aliens, etc. This sounds very powerful. At least in our time, there were not so many strange things."

"No, no, Steve, you made a mistake."

Merlin looked out the window. He looked at a lone vampire on the street. He replied:

"Aliens are not just active in this era. Their trajectory almost runs through the whole of human civilization. There were also aliens in your era, but large-scale wars covered this up."

"Have you not cooperated with Master Ulysses. Bloodstone? You have also seen the Thule community next to Hitler, and the madmen like the red skull. You should understand that this world is not just human."

"I know, I just think..."

Steve rubbed his forehead. He said:

"The world is changing a little bit faster, the Cold War, the nuclear threat, the moon landing...I missed too many things."

"Be more open."

Merlin casually said:

"This era just looks gorgeous, in fact, it is no different from yours at that time. Oh, yes, speaking of it, do you remember the thing we said before?"

He says:

"About the skull book of the red skull and the secret bases of the Hydra in your memory, when are you going to find them?"

"I can go at any time."

Steve seriously said:

"But I guess you need to pair me with a partner, you don't need to be able to fight, as long as it can help me handle other things besides fighting."

"Row."

Merlin says:

"After Fury has processed your identity information, let's start to do this."

"Click"

Merlin's wind-powered car was parked on the side of the road. In front of the two, it was an old street that had been empty. There were no street lights and no people. The quiet was like a ghost street, and it was on the left side of the street. There is an abandoned club.

The large neon signboard shows the bustling time in the past, but now even the beautifully decorated glass is almost broken.

That is the destination of Merlin and Steve.

The Bird Watching Club, one of New York’s most famous military clubs during World War II, is also a favorite place for Steve and his Roaring Commandos to spend time on vacation.

But with the re-planning of the municipal construction, this famous club has moved to a more prosperous area, and all that remains here is the old site waiting to be demolished.

"It matches you well."

Merlin opened the door, jumped to the ground, and said to Steve on the other side:

"The stubborn old man who doesn't want to admit defeat, is still waiting for the arrival of the guests...Is the place where you made an appointment with Ms. Carter at that time?"

"Correct."

Steve took a deep breath, he walked to the club, he said:

"A ball, I was 60 years late..."

"Still that sentence, I want to open it up."

Merlin followed Steve to the bird watching club like a haunted house. He said:

"No one has given up on you in 60 years, and there are a group of veterans waiting for you to come back. You are remembered, and people still tell your story. This is a good thing. Really, you have more than 99% of veterans. I'm lucky."

"Snapped"

The rusty lock was easily broken under Steve's finger, the two walked into the dark hall one after the other, Merlin held out his hand, and several dark red **** of light rose into the air from his palm, Just like an electric light, it illuminates this dark place.

Well, the situation inside is miserable. All the valuable things have been taken away. It is just like the post-war ruins. There are even mice running around in the dark.

The ground was covered with dust, and there were spider webs, broken doors and counters, making it the place where those horror movies happened.

"What is your favorite ballroom?"

Merlin asked. Steve pointed to the second floor. He stepped up the gurgling staircase. Merlin flashed and appeared in the dark fog lingering on the second floor aisle. He pulled out his wand and gently waved it. , A large-scale cleaning spell was thrown in front.

In the gust of wind, the dust, stains and debris were all rolled up by magic and thrown into the hall on the first floor.

He felt that someone was waiting for them in the ballroom in front of him.

"Peggy..."

Steve ran to the ballroom, he took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and then saw the figure sitting in a chair with his back to his back in the flame of a candle.

That's Peggy Carter, Ms. Carter who is already drooping.

She was sitting in the dark, wearing a long black dress, and her white hair was combed into what Steve remembered. With a cane in her hand, she looked at the empty dance floor in front of her.

Compared with Merlin's memory, Ms. Carter did not seem to be older than when she left. On the contrary, the smell of the sick seedling was also removed from the woman, and she looked very healthy.

But she is still old.

Standing with young Steve is not like a lover, but more like a grandmother and grandson.

"Peggy..."

Steve remembered her name. At the next moment, in the shining candlelight, Ms. Peggy turned her back, and her eyes, which had become clear again, looked at Steve standing at the door, she looked at the picture and the memory An identical face, a happy and sorry smile appeared on the lady's face.

She waved to Steve as she was when she was young. She said:

"You are finally here, Steve... I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Ugh..."

Merlin looked at the scene where young Steve and the old Ms. Peggy looked at him. He shook his head, sighed, and quietly disappeared into the darkness.

Although he has many questions to ask Ms. Peggy, but now...

Let's leave the time to this hard-working couple.

——————————————

"Ah, you are as young and handsome as I remember."

Ms. Peggy was sitting in a chair. She looked at the lover in front of her. She reached out and stroked the wrinkles on her face. She said:

"And I am old."

"Sorry, Peggy."

Steve clenched his fists. The captain's eyes were full of pain and self-blame. He said to Ms. Peggy in a gentle, trembling voice:

"I made you wait too long, it's my fault, it's all my fault."

"no no."

Ms. Peggy shook her head. She said:

"It’s just fate, my Steve, you’re destined to go through these hardships, you’re destined to be a great person. I’m honored to leave a trace in your life, but the story that belongs to me in your life is over Now... you should look forward, Steve, in the past was the shackles, you should throw away the shackles and continue your life."

"I can not do it."

Steve lowered his head. He didn't want Peggy to see the tears in his eyes, which would make him look weak.

He says:

"From the moment I woke up, your figure, those stories, those past, have been entangled. Like a ghost, I can't get rid of it, I don't want to get rid of it."

"Merlin told me that the other I am with you... is this true?"

Steve asked. Ms. Carter chuckled. She nodded seriously and said to Steve:

"Yes, another you, you from the future, he went to make appointments for you. It was here, we danced together, and then we talked to each other. On the day when the war ended, we got married, and then until now."

Ms. Carter reached out and stroked Steve’s face. She said softly:

"You never actually left me, Steve, don't blame yourself."

"But that's not me..."

Steve took Ms. Carter's hand and he said softly:

"I hope it is me."

"There will be a chance."

Peggy put on a touch of ease and care, she said:

"We will make up for the regrets of the past in the future, you have not owed me anything."

"Listen to me, Steve, listen to me, you still have more important responsibilities to take on. The people you have protected need you more than in the past. When darkness covers this world, you will become courage and hope again. Symbol of time, to turn the tide again and again...I know how great you are, and I cannot be your burden."

"I..."

Steve wanted to say something more, but Ms. Carter’s finger was on his lips, preventing him from continuing the question.

Ms. Carter stood up, she took Steve's hand, she whispered:

"Don't ask any more, Steve, I can't tell you any more, the future will change with the present... Come on, let's dance the last dance, which is 60 years late."

"Click, click, click"

In the dark ballroom, a few beams of light suddenly rose, as well as soothing music, as if it were a stage specially prepared for this late dance.

Ms. Carter held out her hand and placed her hand on Steve’s waist as she was young. Steve also held Ms. Carter’s waist and the two looked at each other.

Ms. Carter's eyes are full of nostalgia and blessings, while Steve's eyes are full of pain and tangle.

His eyes were red and there were tears on his face.

This hero, praised by the world, has never seemed so vulnerable, like a child who is about to experience parting.

In the sound of melodious music, Steve and Carter are spinning, the lady's dress swings like an elf in the light, the two haven't seen each other for 60 years, but still maintain the same tacit understanding as before, like the best Dance partner, there is no trace of confusion.

Merlin leaned against the pillar in the dark and watched the last dance without anyone watching with an admiring look. Next to him, the old Steve in a black suit also leaned there, also using the admiring look Watch this scene.

"How does it feel to watch another one dance with his wife?"

Merlin asked softly:

"Is there jealousy? After all, he is younger than you, handsomer than you, more energetic than you."

"Will I be jealous of myself?"

Old Steve chuckled and took two cigars out of his pocket and gave one to Merlin. He said:

"Ask what you want, but don't expect me to tell you what you shouldn't know... Merlin, as I said when I said goodbye last time, it's not the right time."

"Hush."

Merlin lit the cigar in the dark, and he made a forbidden gesture to old Steve. He said:

"Be quiet, don't disturb me to appreciate the dance in front of me...you can talk about things between us later."

A few minutes later, the sound of music and lights slowly dissipated. This dance, which was 60 years late, was over. Ms. Carter and Steve hugged and stood in the center of the stage. She gently buried her head on Steve’s shoulder. On, she whispered:

"Forget me for the time being, Steve... I have had a good life, the only regret is that I haven’t seen you live your life, but this time it won’t, I will bless you this time, history Don’t let it down, Tiff."

"Do not."

Steve burst into tears and said stubbornly:

"I can't forget...I don't want to forget."

"It's time to say goodbye."

Ms. Carter’s hand touched the captain’s neck. At the moment when the beating arc was on, the hard-hit Steve lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.

Peggy gently placed him on the floor. She stroked Steve's face. She whispered:

"Steve, I will be waiting for you in the past."
