    Summary

    She was Steve's first, he reminds himself. His before Johnny’s undertow pulled her in, helped along the way by Steve’s complacency. Johnny’s like gravity: he grabs hold and drags you down, and Steve has spent the better part of five years trying to pull her back out. Steve misses her in his life the way she used to be - in his bed, in his heart - but he misses her looking whole and happy even more.

    "We’re not kids anymore, Darcy," Steve says seriously, invoking the type of tone he imagines her father would if he were still around. Darcy’s eyes drag down to the hand he’s got resting over the gun holstered on his hip. "This isn’t Johnny taking you out for joy rides in Mr. Johnson’s hotwired Chevy."

    Darcy grows up with the Rogers twins.
