A few weeks had passed since their little vacation, and the throuple had begun to build their home. And it was just about done, thank you, Tony Stark, just the wiring and the extra accessories left to work on. (Y/n) was excited to see the final results she and Ash were already buying furniture.

The team had also resumed moving into the compound. So, a good majority of the labs and training halls were packed away which meant (y/n) had less work to do and more time to shop. And today, she was Dragging Bruce along with her. They were finishing up the kitchen. The throuple agreed to a light grey countertop and dark grey cabinets with silver handles, the idea of white anything just unsettled the family as a whole. They all agree on the walls, beyond their personal space, being off-white and grey.

"Oh, this is cute" (Y/n) said showing a Kawaii, yes Kawaii, not cute, kitten designed kitchen utensils.

"You already have spatulas and those don't even match the aesthic. "Bruce said as he took it from her hand and put it back." We are here for the bathrooms."

"Ash can decorate her own bathroom. And Steve and Bucky can careless as long as the towels are soft enough and there are shelves for their products. They are being simple"

"most men are"

"They aren't simply. They are BEING simple big difference."

"How?" Bruce asked as he manuvered (Y/n) way from the kitchen section and into the bathroom section.

"Steve wants an art room. And he wants the whole nine yards with it. A thousand shelves and drawers, a million canvas, and sketch books. And a big window so he can gaze at nature for inspiration."

"Why don't I believe you?"

And he shouldn't. Steve truly just wanted a little nook/ window seel where he could draw in peace and a desk or closet to put his art supplies away. It was (y/n) and Bucky who wanted him to have more, his own personal space to explore. Steve could do with small and simple but they always wanted to give him more.

They were all like that with each other.

Bruce watched as (Y/n) slows down as she looked at the bathroom decor specifically his & her decor. She picked up two matching soap dispensers. Leaning on the cart Bruce bumps her hip slightly releasing her from her deep thoughts.

"I never thought I'd have this." He looked at her confused "Honestly, the time I came from what i currently have wasn't even a possibility. But even if we did manage somehow, it still wouldn't have been because we were so poor at the time. And now... I'm not even looking at price tags.

I'm building a house-not buying building. A high-tech one as well. And I have a daughter. I have an awesome job taking care of people... This wasn't even a dream.... Bruce?"

"Yeah?"

"I think I'm going to cry."

"I think we've done enough shopping today. Let's go cry in the car."

"Welcome home" Bucky called out as he heard the Elevator door close. Steve greeted him as he rounded the corner. "I'm making dinner. We're having salmon."

"Where are the girl?" Steve asked as he approached him hugging him from behind and asking his neck.

"They are in the living room watching tv." Bucky said as he leaned back to get a proper kiss from him. "Go tell them to wash up for dinner. I'm almost done."

"Hey, hey" (Y/n) said Steve approached them from behind. Leaning over the back of the couch he kissed Ash's forehead before giving (Y/n) a proper kiss.

"What are you guys watching?"

"Nothing really. We are actually looking up furniture for Ash's room." (Y/n) explained as she handed him the tablet showing what they had.

"This looks really good. Can't wait to see it all together. By the way Time for dinner. We're eating salmon."

"Oh, I love salmon"

"Honestly you love just love food."

"Correction, I love good food" (y/n) said they all went to wash up.

"Did you decide on anything?" Bucky asked as he set their plates.

"Thank you, honey. And yes, she found a few thinks she liked."

Taking out the tablet again Ash handed over to Bucky and they began to talk about her choses. (Y/n) watched as Ash and Bucky went over her room and what more she could put in it and decorate it. They were both smiling as the spoke. You could see the resemblance in their smiles and the way they laughed. Both so beautiful.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Steve asked as he reached across the table taking her hand. (Y/n) hadn't realized she had started crying she laughed and started wiping her tears away.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Everything stopped.

"what-what did you say?" (Y/n) whispered as more tears spilled.

"I...mom?"

(Y/n) started laughing as she pulled Ash into her chest hugging her. In all the time Ash had been with them she had never addressed them as anything but their names this was the first time she'd ever...

"You called me mom. I'm mom"

"Why are you crying?" Ash asked as she hugged her Mother.

"Because I'm happy. I'm so happy I'm crying. You're making me happy." The whole family sigh in relief as (Y/n) continued to cry and hug her daughter. "I just never thought... oh I love you all, I love you all so much."
