"Hello, Matt? It's Steve. Steve Rogers?"

Someone's a bit wheezy. Must have just come home up those stairs.

I hope you had a happy holiday. Are you still up for bible study? It's okay if not--I just..Well. I could use a Good Word or two.

"Hey, Matt. Hope I wasn't bothering you or anything earlier. How are you?"

Steve sounds much better than he did on the voicemail. Outside is rough on him lately. There's a sound of something snapping. Matchsticks? Chopsticks? Strange.

"Happy new year, by the by."

"Good. Busy."

Steve shouldn't try to lie. He's really not very good at it. And if something bad happened, Matt can rest easily knowing he'd be one of the first people Steve called.

"I wanted to wait until the Holidays were over before I checked in is all."

"You seem like the type that's good with the dames. I'm not surprised." Steve actually chuckles a bit there. Does it sound sad? Phones suck for picking things apart.

A pause that's longer than it maybe needs to be. Steve might have gotten distracted form the phone before he speaks up again.

"Were....were you at all able to find a church around here? It...turns out most of my friends are...not...what you'd call religious." Some took the question better than others, but. Yeah. No luck here.

"What? Oh! Oh--no. Wasn't nothin' like that. most of the folks I know around here are ladies." Not that he has a chance with any of them, but that's beside the point. "Reminded me of somethin' else, was all."

Things he probably should forget, but can't.

"..Yeah. Makes it hard to confess. Or to...talk about much of anything close to me in that way. Folks don't believe here...can't say I blame 'em but..." Steve clears his throat. "Anyway, I was wondering if you'd like to meet up? Show me the place maybe? A-and if you still had the spare bible, I'd be awful grateful. I'm getting cooking lessons from Verity, so if you swing by to get me, I'll treat you to breakfast sometime?"

"An old friend. Nevermind."

Steve clears his throat and nods. Beat. Rubs at the back of his neck and speaks up again.

"I appreciate it. When would you like to meet up?"

"Sounds great. Any requests for breakfast? I can make eggs, okay biscuits, and breakfast potatoes pretty well. Otherwise there's toast and generic stuff."

Getting to a different topic seems to cheer Steve up.

"Hehe, toast is pretty amazing, but I'd have to be much worse off than I am if I was getting cooking lessons to make it." Steve rolls his eyes but he's almost laughing now.

See you then, Matt.




((Would you like to make a thread or shall I? I won't be up much later, but I can at least get something up before I go, if you'd like.))
