Royal Wedding
The people of Russia were in a festive mood and they had reason to be. Their tsar, Tsar Mikhail Petrovich Romanov, was getting married to Duchess Tatyana Sergeyeva. The past few months had been spent planning and getting ready for this day. They were happy to see their tsar get married and would be even happier when the tsar and the tsarina had an heir. The newly restored Imperial family needed stability and the marriage today was the first step in providing that stability.

The wedding ceremony lasted over an hour in the Assumption Cathedral. Immediately after Mikhail and Tatyana were pronounced man and wife, Tatyana was crowned empress. The procession left the cathedral and the newly wed couple and newly crowned empress greeted the people from the Red Porch.

The royal family was given time to change and refresh themselves before heading to the Grand Kremlin Palace for the wedding banquet. Dinner was an elaborate affair and lasted for two hours.

After dinner the royal family and guests made their way to the grand ballroom for the ball. The royal family was introduced and then the tsar and tsarina entered. They danced the first dance together and then the royal family was invited to dance with their partners. The guests would be invited to dance in the next song.

"I noticed," Steve told her with a grin. "Appreciate the gesture."

Go crazy? Go running? Not now, not ever, far as he was concerned.

"Would you like to dance, Handsome? I figured we could dance a bit and then sneak out of here."

Anya loved formal parties and the like, but in Russia the pressure from her cousin's advisors to marry and produce heirs came with the parties. They noted on a few occasions tonight that her eighteenth birthday was coming up and that would make her legal marrying age and quite old enough to start having babies. Anya so wanted to tell them to shove it, but she decided that take refuge at Steve's side was a more diplomatic solution.

Steve's grin got all the wider. "Love to, Gorgeous. Love the way you think, too."

Steve was vaguely aware of some of the Russian-side pressures on Anya, and this did concern him greatly. But, he was more than happy to be the barrier she needed.

"Of course you do. Most of my ideas deal with us ending up being naked," she said with a chuckle. "Not that it's a bad thing mind you. I just don't want to hear any more about me needing to be married or having babies. They seem to think I need to do both once I turn eighteen."

"Well, yes, that is a nice end result," Steve confessed.

"They keep that up, you can always let me handle them. Granted, I'd probably cause an international incident or two..."

Anya kissed him. "I love you. Which is why I'm not going to let you cause an international incident. I keep telling them that you and I are eloping on my birthday and we have the chapel in Vegas already picked out and the prenup just needs to be signed."

Steve kissed her back and laughed. "Wait, I thought we already did that," he teased.

Anya laughed as he twirled her around. "You're right," she grinned. "We did. I think that I'll start telling them that we ran away and got married." Her smile faded a bit at the thought of the incidents in Vegas. "I hope Charlie and the others are okay."

Steve frowned for a moment as he thought of Charlie and the others. "Me too," he agreed. It had hardly been any time at all, really, but he missed his friend already. And worried that they would not make it back. Abstract concerns like the end of reality didn't weigh on his mind... too big a thing, really, but this, this did.

He forced a smile. "But yeah, you go and tell them that. See if their heads explode."

"They'll be fine," she tried to assure him. "They'll come back and they'll have a million stories to tell us. We'll wish we would have went along." She believed what she said. They were Avengers. They always held out hope and looked on the good side of things.

She kissed him. "I will." She smiled. "Who knows, maybe one day it will be the truth."

The smile grew more genuine. It was, Steve reflected, probably a good thing he hadn't gone. He'd probably have lost his mind thinking about Anya.

He kissed her again. "It will," he told her. "It will, Gorgeous."

Her eyes teared up a bit and she wrapped her arms around him for a deep kiss. She didn't care if people were watching or the hissy fit the commission would throw. She loved this man with all her heart and she wouldn't hesitate to show it.

"We have lots of time," she said quite breathless after that kiss. "Let me dance with my brothers and then we can sneak off. Deal?"

Whoa. Now that was a kiss.

When he'd caught his breath, Steve managed a nod. "Deal."

Anya smiled and then leaned forward to whisper in his ear. She told him exactly what she was planning to do to him later. She kissed his cheek and smiled as she pulled back. "I love you. I'll be back soon."

Steve couldn't keep the big and somewhat goofy grin off his face. "Love you too. Hurry back."
