The first month went rather well, with the couple staying in shape, unknowing that their secret daughter has now developed up to 5 months,
staying small yet enjoying the excitement of the drills her mother's going through, with now hearing her parents' voices at last when they are together for either conversation time or making love time.
Upon seeing that Peggy and Steve have done successfully for the first month, Phillips then decided to give the couple a
3-day weekend break as a reward, with commanding them to return back for the second month of drills.
Peggy immediately knew exactly what they would do with their pass as she wanted to finally have a chance to see her parents again after so long, and especially after her and Steve's change.
Sure, they more than likely knew of it, thanks to the newsreels and such, but certainly seeing their daughter in a film reel was nothing compared to seeing her in person.
After the drills of the last day was done, it was evening, yet the stars and moon is out, with Peggy and Steve exiting the camp to take a night strolling trip as they wanted to get a good start, with Steve squeezing her hand, "It's gonna be okay.
They will be quite surprised, but they love you, and heck, I'm nervous to meet them officially.",
dressed in their casual clothes, leaving their war outfits and their training clothes in the camp at Tilbury Fort.
Peggy's parents are living in the countryside up northwest in Gloucester, with the reason that it's two escape routes by either going up north by land to Scotland or going west by sea or air to
America in case if the war gets worse. That's what Peggy's father figures, anyway.
Peggy smiled lightly, "I'm nervous too...It has been ages since I saw them...
Sure, letters and such over the past few years were nice, and then since the change, letters are more rare, due to the terrain over the land to Italy, or even overseas, if
U-boats hadn't caught messenger boats and such...", with a sigh.
"I'm sure they know you're alright. If not from the news, then certainly from some government visits.", Steve pointed out. "I know... it's been rough losing my brother, Michael before.
SOE, lost in a mission into the continent back in late 1940. I don't want them to worry about losing both of their children.", Peggy sighed as Steve smiled.
"It'll be alright once you see them, I promise you that.", Steve reassured her. Peggy leaned on his shoulder as they walked on, smiling softly,
"Once again, your optimism comes in spades. As for you, they will grow to like and respect you. If you compliment Mum's cooking, she will adopt you immediately.", with a chuckle.
Steve laughed softly, "Well, I have a thing for home-cooked food, so that wouldn't be a problem...And for your dad?".
Peggy shrugged, "He usually enjoys fly-fishing and listening to the music on the radio, but every year or so, he tries a new hobby.
Mum said that it is a mid-life crisis thing. Last letter that Bucky read for me, Dad had decided to try out biking up the coastline.".
"Well, not really going to be able to bond with that then since we're both too big for bikes.", Steve rubbed the back of his neck.
Peggy chuckled, "True. Perhaps you could give him a new experience.
I doubt he never thought of seeing art come to life.", and Steve blinked thoughtfully, "That would work.".
"You can do it. Just don't surprise him too much, okay?", Peggy asked warmly, and Steve kissed her cheek,
"Yes, ma'am.", with a smile. They kept walking on for a few hours until they stopped for a rest and some intense love making time.
Steve had noted that the love making times has become more intense if still gentle occasionally, yet he saw that it made Peggy happy, so he obliged happily,
unknowing that Peggy's pregnancy hormones has gotten her slightly more sex deprived.
Within the afternoon of their first day of break, they finally made it to Gloucester, with Peggy guiding Steve to her parents' home on the outskirts.
Of course, their 50ft tall height is much more noticeable, for even before they made it, her parents were waiting outside on the porch.
"Either someone sent word, or they saw us coming from a mile away.", Steve joked. "It's a pretty good spot, great visibility from a distance.", Peggy replied with a smile.
Steve nodded, "I can see why your father prefers it.", with a smile as they slowly walked up, and
Peggy chuckled before exhaling as she then kneels down, looking at her parents nervously, "Hi, Mum. Hello, Dad.".
Her mom, Amanda sobbed happily as she ran down the steps, "Maggie!", her version of a nickname for Margaret, with her dad,
Harrison smiling proudly and warmly as he followed his wife down the steps, "Hello, Mag-peg.".
Peggy got herself as close to the ground as she could to allow her parents to embrace her as best as they could.
Peggy was already starting to tear up at the moment at finally reuniting with them after so long.
Steve's eyes misted at the sight as he sat down, smiling tenderly, knowing how Peggy feels yet sad that he couldn't reunite with Sarah, his mother...
But somehow, he knows that she's looking over him, and perhaps Peggy as well, for she might possibly know that
Peggy is his beloved queen of his heart, his true love, his lover, and more...We honestly didn't believe about you when they first told us... after seeing you on the newsreels, of course.",
Harrison chuckled. "Yeah, I thought I was done growing years ago... but, guess not.", Peggy joked.
Amanda smiled warmly, "You're just as beautiful as you were when you left for the army, just bigger and stronger.", caressing her entire cheek, and
Harrison nodded, "That's right, and now you are fighting for something bigger than yourself, along with your paramour.", glancing at Steve.
Peggy blushed wildly, smiling, "He's my partner of war, Captain America,
