Soft jazz spills through the dim dance hall, illuminating Bucky’s boyish grin as he guides his pregnant wife onto the polished floor. His hand rests gently at the small of her back, thumb tracing circles on her skin. Steve’s voice cuts through the melody, teasing about hogging his friend, while Peggy chuckles nearby. Bucky laughs, stepping aside to let Steve greet the unborn child, his eyes shining with a hard-won peace. For a moment, amidst the music and friends, the war feels distant, replaced by the quiet perfection of this shared future.
