Steve hadn’t expected someone to be there,

then again that was him underestimating what
a social butterfly Tony Stark really was. Steve
blinked at the young woman that stood in front
of him, looking a little shocked that she was there.
From what he’d heard from Tony she lived a face
paced lifestyle and was always going from one
place to the next, again that was his fault for
underestimating compassion. 

“Uh— The names Steve Rogers.” His identity
was still under wraps at that time, so he had
to be careful, even with his tone. “I’m a friend
of Tony’s actually. I came to check up on him—
You must be Miss Fujikawa?”

Hearing the name of the blond in fron to her, her brow rose a bit and she sighed, nodding once. A small, weak smile appeared on her features. “Tony always talks about you, you know. He says that you two are really good friends, that you two have known each other for years. I would have sworn that you two were together based on how he talks about you. He has this… spark in his eyes, whenever you’re mentioned,” Rumiko said sadly then looked back to Tony.

“I suppose I should let one of Tony’s close friends in. Come on,” Ru babbled then motioned him inside as she went to take her seat right on the left side of Tony’s bed.

Tony was sick. 

Suck in hospital in critical condition.
Steve had been taking turns with the
others to stay by his bedside after
everything that had happened, but his
hospitalisation wasn’t exactly low-key;
the hospital was swarmed with paparazzi
so Steve couldn’t don his usual Captain
America suit without being spotted. The
best way to get through the press was
to go in not as Cap, but as Steve Rogers.
So there he was, about to step into the
room when he spotted a young lady by
Tony’s bedside. That must’ve been his
girlfriend, the one that he would never
shut up about - though Steve was pleased
that someone was looking after him when
he wasn’t.  

Rumiko had no ideas what she was going to do. 

Her whole entire life was falling apart right in front of her eyes and there was nothing she can do to stop it. She wished there was something she can do, but she knew there was nothing. Ru’s gaze never left Tony’s sickly body, the only time she left the room was to tell a paparazzi member to “fuck off”, telling them that this was a hospital and imagine if one of their family members were in here. Despite this, it was relatively quiet in Tony’s room, the subtle beeping of Tony’s heart monitor kept her hopes alive that Tony was still with her. however, even with that, the doctors said that it was looking extremely grim. 

She wasn’t exactly religious herself, but she did a few prayers, to whatever god, or whatever was up there to help keep Tony around her. They’d lost each other once, it was going to happen again. At least, she hoped it wasn’t going to happen again. 

Hearing footsteps, she glanced up, wondering if it was the doctor with any kind of news after the last test, however it was just a..handsome blond man. Her brow rose as she stood up and walked over to the door, leaving the room for the first time in what seemed like days. 

“Can I help you?”
