Bucky groaned again but reached over to feel around for a bottle of water and the Advil. He was definitely not going anywhere that morning.

Steve chuckled to himself all the way to campus, settling into the art room again and setting up for another day of nude modeling. He felt himself flush a bit again, although it wasn't as bad as the day before.

Chastity was already there, sitting in her robe with a cup of coffee in her hands. She wouldn't undress completely until class officially started. She grinned a bit when she saw Steve.

Steve grinned back at her and waved a little. And then, because he could, he did a quick sketch of her sitting with the coffee mug in hand, the robe draped around her easily. This he could do all day long. It was the part after she lost the robe he was still iffy with.

When class officially started, Chastity easily slid out of her robe and settled on the linen-draped cushions. Today would be the last day of solo modeling for the class; the next day, she would pair up with a male volunteer from the LBGT+ club, and the two days after that would be a solo male model. But for the moment, she enjoyed the quiet (if not necessarily relaxing) modeling time.

Curiously, she found herself very aware of Steve's eyes on her.

Steve managed to look at more of her this time, slowly losing his embarrassment as he drew her lines and curves. He would look up every few minutes and study her before going back to drawing. It wasn't as easy as drawing Bucky, say, but then no one else was.

But, interestingly enough, he did find it easier to draw her than most people.

Chastity waited until he was looking at her again before making a brief, teasing face at him. She wanted him to be a bit more relaxed, she could still see the tension in his (admittedly delightful) shoulders.

That startled a snicker out of Steve, his shoulders shaking briefly with repressed laughter. She even had a sense of humor. He couldn't help the passing thought that she was one hell of a gal.

When the class was over, Chastity slipped back into her robe and stretched a bit.

"That was fun," she said.

"Much better today," Steve agreed with a little grin, taking his time packing up his stuff. "Looked like you were having some fun too."

"It helps when I've got a friend in the class," Chastity replied, grinning a bit.

Steve grinned a bit at that, flushing a little. "Glad to be of service," he said. "You have another class to run off to today?"

"Later on," Chastity said. "Not for a while." She grinned teasingly. "Why?"

Steve shrugged, hesitating for a few moments. "Want to get some coffee?" It came out a bit quieter than he'd intended.

Chastity blinked, then smiled.

"Sure," she said. "Let me just get dressed first, though."

Steve blushed a bit and nodded. "Yeah, of course," he said, a bit flustered again. "I'll just wait out in the hall."

Chastity grinned at him and then ducked into the side room to change. She came out a few moments later dressed.

"Ready?" she asked, her bag over her shoulder. Instead of a hat, she had a loosely-knitted scarf around her neck in colors that complemented her shirt, and her jeans were artfully patched.

"Yeah. Let's go." Steve smiled a bit and started walking with her, keeping a nice easy pace for now. "You want to go to the place on campus or walk a couple blocks?"

"I don't mind walking, if you know a better place than on campus," Chastity said. "I'm not in a hurry."

"There's a pretty good place about four blocks away," Steve said. "It's on the way to my apartment, so I usually end up there at least once a day." He smiled a bit, the tips of his ears pink.

"Let's go, then," Chastity said, grinning a bit. "Sounds like a good place."

Steve smiled and nodded a bit, leading the way to the coffee place. He held the door for her automatically and let her go first. And really he didn't even mean anything by it.

Chastity didn't mind, and she walked inside. The coffee place was small and cozy, and she immediately liked it.

The barista behind the counter waved at Steve.

"Hey, Rodgers," the man called.

"Hey Nick," Steve said with a brief grin and sloppy two-fingered salute in return. It had kind of become a thing since he'd been home again. "Nick's good, he'll make whatever you can think of," he told Chastity with a little grin.

"That sounds like a challenge," Chastity teased, grinning.
