*gif not mine!
The 5 o'clock animal crossing theme song blares in their shared room; Sam shakes his head and chuckles softly. She must be playing that damn game again, he thinks to himself. He’s just returned from a meeting with some government officials and hoped that he’d have his wife, Shanna, all to himself. To his dismay, she’s playing animal crossing, which means she doesn’t have time for him.
“You still playing? When I talked to you earlier today, you were playing…” Sam playfully complains, knowing how much his girl loves her video games.
“The gameplay is intense right now, babe…”
He walks even further into the room and peers at the tv. He watches Shanna cook up a meal.
“Baby… you’re literally cooking… I don’t think that’s considered intense gameplay… you do that all the time in real life!”
Summary: After the events of Armoni going back to her birth parents. Steve finally worked through his problems to get his daughter back.
A/N: Y'all I swear I can’t stay focused on one thing and then plus when I do have free time, I don’t think about writing. Thanks for the feedback and the credit goes all to you.@blowmymbackout
“Armoni wake your ass up so we can go to the courthouse.” Tilly hit the door waking up Armoni from her sleep.
The teenager groaned not wanting to be bothered. She rolled over trying to get her phone but remembered they took it. It’s been two weeks since the incident at the tower and it’s been hell.
“Armoni didn’t Tilly tell your ass to get up?!” Her father sounded off at the door. It was locked because the way he has been acting makes Armoni feel weird around him.
She didn’t respond but just rubbed her eyes. The door was kicked in. Yeah, you read right.
“What the fuck??” Armoni yelled getting out the bed, trying to hurry up to put on shorts. Her father gave her a sly look which made her skin crawl.
(Y'all I can’t bring myself to write that. It’s nasty and it makes me mad af. Just know his nasty ass touched her!)
Armoni cried putting on her outfit. She didn’t want to wear it because she felt so disgusted with herself. “Armoni let’s go!” Tilly yelled from downstairs.
She walked downstairs holding herself close. That man licked his lips watching her walk downstairs.
“Only reason why I’m letting you wear your whore clothes so we can win this trial. If they ask you anything, you tell them that you’re happy with us. I need this money, that’s the only reason why I got your whore ass.” Tilly played with the ends of Armoni’s hair as they walked towards the car. Armoni bit her lip trying to hold in her tears.

The press was hot outside as the three walked into the courthouse. Tony, Steve, Natasha, Bucky, Sam, and Wanda sat in all black near the front. Bucky hit Steve on the shoulder when he saw Armoni walk into the room. Steve instantly sat up, turning around to see her. When he spotted her, Steve got up making his way over to his daughter.
“Sweetheart…”
He was cut off by her mother. “She’s not your daughter so don’t talk to her like she is.”
“With all due respect ma'am.”
“You heard what my wife said.” Armoni’s father moved forward into Steve’s face. The two held an intense glare until the bailiff called the court to order.
“Please rise. The Court of the Second Judicial Circuit, Criminal Division, is now in session, the Honorable Judge Smith presiding.”
—Skip, Skip, Skip—–
“Prosecution, you may call your first witness.”
Their Attorney spoke up “Thank you, your Honor. I call to the stand Armoni’s mother, Tilly.”
The trial lasted all morning until around 3 p.m. The Judge called for recess. Armoni stayed quiet the whole time. Scared from the threat her father gave.
“Armoni?” Wanda’s comforting voice came from the side of her while she got a sip of water from the fountain. She quickly stood up, looking around to see if her father was around.
“Hey, Hey what’s wrong? You’re freaking out about something.” She grabbed her hand but she moved it which hurt Wanda’s feelings a bit. “Armoni what’s wrong so I can help you?”
Armoni looked around nervously one more time and once not seeing her parents in view. She spilled the beans.
“He did what?!?!”
It took every strength in Wanda not to show everyone the Scarlett Witch. “Cap.” She held onto Armoni’s hand as they walked in the courtroom.
“Hey! What’s she doing with my daughter?!!” Tilly questioned trying to make her way to them but the security guard stood in the way. The judge stayed quiet trying to see everything unravel.
“Wanda? Armoni can’t be over here.” Steve tried to abide by the rules so he could seem like a fit parent. He noticed the tears in Armoni’s eyes. He instantly went into papa bear mode.
“What’s wrong Armoni? What happened??”
Armoni gripped onto Wanda’s hand.“Nothing I’m fine Steve.” She could feel the holes being burned into her back.
“If it’s something that needs to be known in the trial, you have to tell us. I promise no one will hurt you. I won’t even let them get close.” Steve spoke in a comforting way using his thumb to wipe her tears. Her behavior reminded him of how she was when she first moved into the tower.
“Armoni you have to help us so you can come back. Nobody’s going to hurt you.” Natasha placed a hand on her lower back.
“Everything’s going to be okay Armoni. We promise, just tell us what happened.” Sam reassured silently hoping that it was something bad so her parents can go down.
“Pinky Promise?” She whispered holding out her finger to the team. Tony wrapped his finger around hers.
“Pinky Promise. I’ll sue them for every penny they have.”
“He told me if I told anyone, he would hurt them and I don’t want him to hurt you guys. I’m scared.” Armoni sobbed shaking her head. Bucky hated seeing his niece like this, it hurt him.
“Armoni what are you talking about? What did he do??”
Armoni took a deep breath, tears rolled down her cheek. “He touched me.” The team held different emotions trying to process what the hell she just said.
“He… he touched you… Where?"Bucky clenched his jaw, getting angry in a matter of seconds. Armoni pointed at her skirt. It clicked to Steve in a matter of seconds. He ran over to her father throwing a nice punch to his face.
"YOU TOUCHED MY DAUGHTER?!?!”
All hell broke loose in that courtroom. Armoni held onto Wanda, crying. Bucky was being held back by Sam so he wouldn’t make things worse. Tony and Natasha were trying to get Steve off the man but Rogers wasn’t budging. The judge kept hitting the pallet hoping to catch everyone’s attention.
Tony and Natasha plus 6 security guards finally were able to get Steve off. “What did he say? What happened??!” The judge yelled at everyone in the room. “That man touched my daughter, your honor. I kicked his ass cause he touched my daughter!!” Steve yelled hoping everyone in the world could hear.
Shocked, the judge turned her attention towards a crying Armoni. “Is what he said is true Ms. Armoni??” All she could do was nod her head.
“She’s lying? That little whore is lying!! She came onto my husband!” Tilly screamed hoping to keep the act up so she could get money. Wanda placed her hand over Armoni’s ear.
“She’s lying? A 16-YEAR-OLD GIRL IS LYING ABOUT BEING TOUCHED BY YOUR RAPIST HUSBAND? YOURE PATHETIC!” Wanda exploded keeping a good grip on Armoni. Wasn’t nobody getting close to her.
“Order in the court! ORDER!” The judge hit the pallet, upset herself. “I’ve heard enough! In the case of The State of New York versus The Avengers. Find the defendant not guilty of the charge of legal adoption of Ms.Armoni Rogers. You’re going to jail, Mr. and Mrs. Lo.”
—————–
Alongday.
Armoni and her father, Steve Rogers, sat on the couch watching her favorite movie. Legally Blonde
“Princess are you okay?” Steve asked for the fifth time while they’ve been on the couch. She wasn’t bothered by it and answered genuinely every time.
“Yes, I’m okay.”
“I am so sorry I let you down sweetheart. In those two weeks, you weren’t here was my personal hell. I’m sorry for even letting them take you. I wish I was there to prevent what happened to you. I’m so glad to have you as my daughter, I promise to protect you from everything I can. I love you my butterfly.” Steve held his daughter close, placing a kiss on her forehead. This is what real love from a father and from a family feels like and she was grateful for every bit.
“I love you more Dad. I’m so grateful to have you in my life.”
She hugged her dad’s neck tightly.

I hope you guys enjoyed it. I did.
Steve beat his ass.
I don’t know when the next time I’m going to write something because college gets overwhelming a bit.
