I had a thought about the USO girls being protective of Steve and then I wrote this little thing. Enjoy!

...

“Goddam straps came loose during the song.”

The girls pool into the dressing room, laughing and chattering. Betty fiddles with the collar around her neck until it’s open where it connects in the back. She sighs in relief as she frees her breasts and pulls the pins out of her hair to get the ridiculous hat off, shaking out her red curls. The other girls start to undress as well, all eager to get out of their costumes and into their (slightly) more comfortable clothes.

“Ya almost flashed the whole audience”, giggles Miriam, a pretty blonde who joined the group very recently.

“Please, imagine how many bonds would sell with these bombs” Betty says cheeky and shimmies her boobs to a song only she could hear. That earns her a few wolf whistles and howling laughter.

“Would have given the old bloke in the first row a heart attack” Ruth cackles. Betty knows exactly who she meant and giggles too. The guy’s eyes almost fell out just from seeing that much leg.

“Forget the grandpa, Rogers would’ve gone up in flames right then and there on the stage.” Martha throws in, strapping a small watch around her wrist. “He always acts like he’s not seen us change a hundred times.”

“Nah, he’s just one of them catholics, they feel guilty about everythin’.”

“Ain’t that true!” yells a voice from the back of the room that Betty recognizes as Irene’s. When she isn't on stage she wears a simple silver cross around her neck. “I still hear the fucking nuns in my head when I start to enjoy myself.”

“Where is he anyways?” Miriam asks, looking around a bit.

Ruth sighs. “Probably being paraded around like a showpony again, poor fella.”

“Can’t really blame them when he looks like the American dream with a cherry on top”, Martha says as she checks her makeup and hair in one of the many mirrors along the walls.

“And he’s such a gentleman too”, Miriam adds with a sigh. “You think he already has a dame?” Betty snickers internally. Oh, poor sweet girl.

“Rogers? Nah, he looks like a brick shithouse but he’s real delicate on the inside, if ya know what I mean”, Betty says conspiratorially and winks for good measure. She had already peeled herself out of the costume and currently buttons up her blouse.

“Well yeah, he’s a big softy, I noticed. He still could have a girl. I bet he’s a real romantic.”

Betty stops fiddling with the buttons. And she hesitates. Ruth silently meets her eyes. She could feel Martha looking too, as well as a few other girls who had been listening to the conversation. Miriam doesn’t seem to notice the sudden stillness, just rolling up her stockings and securing them on her garters.

Well, Betty thought. Better to get it out now than Miriam finding out about it under different circumstances. Her eyes briefly wander over to where Alice is zipping up her dress. Sweet, quiet Alice, who writes letters to her ‘roommate’ almost daily and always seals them with a kiss when she thinks no one is watching her.

“No, I mean… He’s… He’s a man’s man, y’know?” Her voice is a lot quieter now than it was before and heavy with implication. Most of the girls already knew, but you can never know who might be walking by. They all like him. They all like Steve. They helped him get over his stage fright and he is a goddam cheat at every card game they’ve played so far. They all like him a lot.

Miriam's eyes widen when she understands. Her mouth opens and closes a few times, like a fish on land.

“You mean… he’s one of them homos?” The last part came out in a whisper, the news clearly shocking to her.

Betty squares up her shoulders to appear taller than she is. Her expression turns cold.

“Now you listen here Miriam, I’m sain’ this once ‘cause you’re young and new to the showbiz, but these people are everywhere and you’re a stage dancer, so you’ll meet a lot. And let me tell you Miriam, these are fine people who live their lives just as you do. They too just want a roof over their head, food on their table and this damn war to end. Who cares who they’re foolin’ around with.”

“But he’s-”

“Been nothing but nice to you, has he not? Was he not such a gentleman? So you’re gonna learn to accept him and those people and if you can’t, it’s you who’ll have to leave, got it?” Somewhere during her speech she had crossed her arms over her chest, giving Miriam a hard look.

Miriam looks at her with huge eyes and then nods.

Betty lets her frown melt away and gives Miriam a tiny smile and a nod back. Beside her she hears someone let out a long breath. It was Ruth.

“Well damn Betty, heart of gold and tongue of steel.”

Betty gives Ruth her biggest grin. “And bombs for tits, don’t you forget it.” She shimmies again and that breaks the serious and heavy air around them as they all laugh at her.

Martha leans in closer, a secret smile on her lips and a mischievous glint in her eye. “But do you think he has a fella?”

“Who knows?” She shrugs, but couldn’t hide the smirk. “If he doesn’t I’m sure it’s no trouble finding one. I for sure wouldn’t have trouble if I had an ass like that.”

Screaming laughter erupts so loud that Betty is sure you could hear it in the audience.

Manhattan Special Espresso Coffee Soda

This was a really fun find! Manhattan Special looks to have been a staple of Brooklyn soda fountains and bottle vendors since long before our boys’ time.

The Williamsburg brand Manhattan Special’s Espresso Coffee Soda has been in production since 1895. This signature product is a coffee-based soda, made from just espresso beans, cane sugar, and seltzer. The unique drink is said to have an “acquired taste,” with various reviewers describing it as thick, quite sweet, bodied like a cream soda, smooth, mellow, dark, smoky French roast aroma, deep, tannic, and complex. Also noted by a number of commentators, the soda is very fizzy! So much so that it is not uncommon for the bottles to erupt and overflow upon first opening due to the carbonation. One suggested opening over a glass or sink to account for it.

The images above show the bottle design that would have been found in the years before WWII. The glass bottles were 6-oz, with yellow and maroon metal crown cork caps (pop-top, twist-off caps were not invented until the 1960s). The white and red label was printed directly onto the bottle and featured the company’s direct phone number (EVergreen 8). Raised lettering can also be seen on the upper portion of the glass. The last two images are of the modern versions of the packaging, which underwent a redesign in 2017. The older of the two (left) can still be found in some stockists, while the newer (right) is more commonly available post-2017.

The brand also produces other soda flavours, including black cherry, gassosa (Italian lemon-lime), orange, sasparilla, and vanilla cream.

I love the idea of the boys finding this drink still in production in the 21st century. From all accounts I’ve seen, the recipe does not appear to have changed over the course of its history. So the taste should then be the same if Steve and Bucky were to drink it again in the 21st century!

Together Forever Chap. 12

1941

Bucky and Y/n had yet to set a date to get married, but remained happily engaged. Even though it had been years, Y/n still could not believe she was engaged to her Buck Buck, the boy that had stolen her heart all those years ago. She thought about the past often, who all they had lost throughout the years and she thought about what their future may hold.

It was rare to see Y/n or Bucky without a smile gracing their features, both of them were ready to start a family together. Many nights were spent together now under cotton sheets and lips touching every part of skin they could find on each other. Bucky wanted to see Y/n's stomach grow with their child, he wanted a son to play baseball with and a daughter to dance with. It seemed like they had their life pretty much all planned out, that is until December 7th 1941 when they woke up that morning Bucky holding Y/n in his arms, Steve burst in their bedroom door out of breath "You have to see this" he said and dread filled both of their hearts as the news told about the bombing of pearl harbor. All over New York people were terrified, everyone knew what this now meant for The United States, they would be going to war.

Steve immediately put on his clothes and headed for the army recruitment center, ready to go to war for his country. He hated shining peoples shoes, he wanted to be of service, he knew men were going to go to war and he wanted to be one of them. Steve was turned away as soon as they saw him, they all but laughed in his face.

A week after the tragedy of Pearl Harbor Y/n had just finished working when she saw the grim look on Bucky's face when she opened the door. Y/n fell to her knees letting out a anguished sob, Bucky immediately rushed over to her cradling her in his arms. Her tears soaked his shirt as she clung onto him hoping more than anything that Bucky didn't have to go to war.

They hadn't even married, they had no children yet, she wanted a life with him and it seemed like life did not want them to have a happy life together. "Doll look at me please" Bucky said wiping her tears away. Y/n looked up at Bucky with unshed tears in her eyes and her lip trembling when he pressed a kiss to her forehead, then to the tip of her nose, and finally to her lips. Bucky tried to reassure her with the kiss, but he was worried himself he didn't want to go to war, he didn't want to be away from Y/n or his sister or mother or Steve.

When they broke away for air Bucky had tears of his own in his eyes "Doll listen to me I'm going to come back to you. We still have to get married and have kids. I love you and that's never going to change no matter how far apart we are" he said before pulling her to him and wrapping his arms around her tightly, afraid that she would disappear if he let her go.

Two Weeks later Steve's new weekly habit was going into the Army recruitment center to try and get into the military. When they would call him up "Rogers, Steven" he would walk up to the doctor ready to answer the same questions that they always asked every other time he attempted to join. "What did your father die of"? they would ask and while Steve didn't really remember much about him he did remember what his mom would always tell him and Y/n. "a bomb, he was in the 107th division and I was hoping I could be assigned-" was as far as Steve could get before he would get cut off "How did your mom die"? the man asked without even glancing up "She was a nurse in the TB ward, she couldn't shake it" Steve would say.

It didn't take long for the doctors that looked at Steve's file to get to his medical issues, that took up half the page. Each one had the same reaction as they quickly scanned the page, "Sorry son" they would say and glance up at Steve who was ready to fight for the opportunity to join the war. "Just give me a chance" he would say "that's all I need is one chance" he would quickly follow with when he would see the doctor shake their head "There's got to be something you can do" Steve would all but beg of the doctor. "I am, I'm saving your life" they would say and quickly stamp 4F on his paper.

Bucky no longer had to go to work but instead had to show up at the local Army boot camp to find out what rank he would be and what he would classify as. He would often come back to the apartment completely exhausted from training from sun up to sun down. Y/n hated now more than ever how Bucky seemed to do good in almost everything.

Y/n had been just getting off of work when she saw Bucky standing outside of their apartment in his military uniform. She couldn't help but to think that he looked so handsome in it, his hat was slightly tilted to the side making her remember when they were kids and he did the same thing. She wished now that they could go back to those times, she knew war changed a man and she was scared that she would lose the only man that she has ever loved.

Y/n shook her head of those thoughts as she walked up to him with a sad smile on her face "Hey handsome" she greeted him and stood on her toes to kiss him. "Y/n wow you look beautiful" was all Bucky said as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously. She could tell something was on his mind as she noticed he kept looking away from her "What is it Bucky"? she asked opening the door to the apartment for them. "I got my orders" he said softly and glanced up at her when she had not said anything after a few minutes. Tears were in her eyes as they looked at one another "Sergeant James Barnes, the 107th" he continued as he walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her. "Doll I....I... I'm sorry but I'm suppose to leave tomorrow. I'm going to England first thing in the morning" he said rocking Y/n back and forth in his arms.

After a few minutes of them standing together Y/n pulled back, tears still in her eyes but she forced a sad smile as she looked up at him. "Then tonight will be a good night, we can go to the World Fair again, I heard tonight there may even be a flying car" she said making Bucky smile at her before kissing her "Sounds good to me doll" he said and looked around the apartment "Where's Steve? He can come with us too" Bucky added while still looking for his best friend. "Probably back at the recruitment center" Y/n said before shaking her head "and probably getting in trouble" she quickly added. "I'll go find him so we can all go together" Bucky said before leaving to find Steve.

Steve had indeed went to the recruitment center again and had been turned down again. He had decided to go see a movie, thinking that it may cheer him up a little before he made his way back home. While he was in the theater ads were playing to get people to sign up for the war, a man a few rows in front of him kept yelling "Who cares" and "Play the movie already" making Steve angry, "Show some respect" he had said but the guy didn't hear him. The man yelled again and Steve caught a woman a few seats beside him crying as the ads on the theater screen showed men in military uniforms fighting "Why don't you shut up!" Steve said a little more louder than before, the guy stood up and turned around before grabbing Steve and pulling him outside.

Steve fell over as the guy punched him in the face, he struggled as he tried to stand back up. The guy punched him again in the face and when Steve fell down this time he knocked over a trash can, Steve grabbed the lid and when he stood back up on shaky legs he used the lid as a shield. The guy quickly grabbed the shield out of Steve's hands and threw it to the side as he punched him again in the face, Steve could feel his eyes starting to swell shut but he wasn't going to give up. "You just don't know when to give up do ya"? the guy said with a thick New York accent. "I can do this all day" Steve huffed out as he struggled to breath but tried to punch the guy back. He caught Steve's fist easily and grinned wildly at him before punching him again, this time Steve fell face first on the hard pavement.

Bucky had walked to the recruitment center first looking for Steve and when he didn't see him there he walked down the street glancing down alley ways. As he walked past the movie theater he heard loud banging and then he could hear fighting as he walked a little faster to see what was going on. Rage filled him as he saw Steve get punched and fall face first on the ground "Hey pick on someone your own size" he said grabbing the guy before he could hurt Steve even more. The guy tried to punch Bucky but he dodged it, leaning back slightly to avoid the hit. Bucky hit him, making the guy stumble away and before he could turn back around Bucky kicked him.

He watched the guy run off before he turned back to help Steve who was trying to stand up. "Sometimes I think you like getting punched" Bucky said as Steve stood up and immediately held his head "I had him on the ropes" he said making Bucky smile but it quickly dropped when he saw enlistment papers on the ground. "How many times is this Steve"? he asked as he looked at the papers "Seriously Jersey? You know it's illegal to lie on your enlistment forms" Bucky said watching as Steve looked a little embarrassed at what Bucky had said.

Steve finally looked up at Bucky and had taken notice of his friend's military uniform "You got your orders?" he asked slightly confused. Bucky gave a sad smile as he walked up to his friend with a napkin to help with his nose bleed "The 107th, Sergeant James Barnes" he said "You would have known that if you would have been home instead of lying on your enlistment forms" Bucky added. Steve shook his head "I should be going" he said and Bucky looked at him sadly, he knew that was all Steve wanted. "Come on Steve, it's my last night, I'll be shipped off to England tomorrow morning and Y/n has us tickets to the World Fair" he said wrapping his arm around Steve's shoulders as they walked "We need to get you cleaned up pal" he added as he noticed blood on Steve's shirt.

Till The End Of Time.

Issue 9

A/N: gosh I'm tired. Here you go.

Warnings: none.

Brooke and Steve were currently exiting Steve's apartment building. Brooke told him to gather some things and Steve knew exactly what she meant. He was a soldier. He had been on several missions and operations before. If the attacker knew where Steve lived, he couldn't stay there. Even if the attacker wasn't after him, which was quite unlikely, it was too big a chance for them to take. Steve needed to take care of himself so he could find Bucky. Steve was all Bucky had left. If something happened to him, nobody would be able to help Bucky. Steve knew Brooke wanted to help, and he needed her for some things, but he didn't want to drag her into all of his past with H.Y.D.R.A., especially with Bucky on the line.

"We need to make a list of all of your enemies that may also have a bone to pick with your friend." Brooke began. "We can head back to my place. My roommate's at work so it shouldn't be a problem."

"If someone's after me, I can't lead them back to where you live." Steve pointed out.

"All we have to do is make sure we weren't followed back and then draw the curtains over the windows." Brooke said. "I live in a place where the neighbors really don't care about... well, anything."

Steve chuckled slightly. He wanted to lighten the mood, but he was worried about Bucky. He knew that there were lots of people who would want him. But almost all of them had one thing in common. H.Y.D.R.A.

"Ok." He finally caved.

"Alright. Let's get going then." Brooke nodded.

They made sure nobody was watching them then hailed a cab to take them to Brooke's apartment. Like Brooke had mentioned, Eddie was at work. So they could focus on what they were going to do to find Bucky.

"Alright." Brooke said as she opened her front door. She went over to her desk and grabbed a pen and a notepad. "We need to make three lists. One, all the people you've made enemies with. Two, all the people Bucky's made enemies with. And three, all the people who knew he was staying with you, enemy or not."

Steve took the pen and paper from her and sat down at the desk. He couldn't write down H.Y.D.R.A. under the list of people who could've wanted Bucky. He couldn't tell her yet. He trusted her, but that doesn't mean he could tell her. She could trust someone who wasn't who they said they were, and tell them. Not to mention the fact that she didn't know Bucky. Not like Steve did at least. If she found out he was the Winter Soldier, she might turn him over to the authorities. Steve needed to make sure Bucky wouldn't be hurt or wrongfully convicted before he could let that happen.

Even though Steve couldn't put H.Y.D.R.A down on Bucky's list, he could put it on his own.

"You think H.Y.D.R.A. would try and use Bucky to get revenge on you?" Brooke asked as she saw him write it down.

"It would make sense. H.Y.D.R.A. has information on everybody. They would know Bucky's my best friend. They probablybl want him to get me." Steve lied, partly at least.

"Then let's start there." Brooke nodded. "Most H.Y.D.R.A operatives were killed during all that happened a few months ago. Anyone who survived was arrested. But maybe one person got away. Someone who knew you. Can you think of anyone like that?"

"I'm not sure. But we need to find out, and fast." Steve sighed. "I just hope wherever Bucky is that he's ok."
