((This thread is based much after Jess's issues in Paris, and before she tells Tony about Dopple (which has yet to happen), but after the Home, Kinda thread.))
The days had grown longer.
At least that's how she felt.
To her knowledge there had been no incidents involving her second personality since the boat ride to Paris. Maybe she had been over reacting, but when it came to the Queen, she knew that anything and everything was a plot point.
She was currently laid out on a couch overlooking the New York city skyline.
She wanted to be back in London, but New York City was beautiful and she felt safe in Tony's tower.
There was a buzz overhead and Jarvis began to speak "Steve Rogers is here to see Mr. Stark Miss Cartwright, what shall I tell him?"
Jess thought for a moment "Steve Rogers, Steve Rogers, why do I know that name?"
"He was also known as Captain America in the 1940's during World War Two, he was recently found in the arctic, frozen in suspended animation for 40 years."
Jess ahhh'd "Well Tony's not-" something stopped her and she smiled "Let him up, I'll tell him myself, he's probably all ready freaked out having to talk to nothingness."
"Yes mam."

Jess had been absolutely correct.
When he'd walked in to the lobby of Stark Tower he'd been greeted by a security officer who had no idea who he was and pressed a button on the wall to ask who he thought was a man named Jarvis if Mr. Stark was in.
The supposed man asked him to give him a moment.
The security officer shook his head "What would a computer need with a moment>"
Steve's eyes shot open "A computer?"
"Yea, Mr. Stark's butler is actually this computer program he created named Jarvis" he shrugged "you get used to it, damn A.I.'s got a personality though."
"A.I.?"
"Yea, you know Artificial Intelligence?"
Before Steve could say that he didn't know, Jarvis returned and told him to send him up to Mr. Stark's level. Never actually saying if he was in.
Steve thanked the man and headed in to the elevator that automatically shot up in the air.
This was more technology than he was used to.

Jess stretched her toes and yawned as the elevator dinged.
She was wearing a pair of black board shorts and a white tank top, her unruly auburn hair was straightened and thrown behind her shoulders.
She smiled "Mr. Rogers?"

He stepped in to the room and looked about a moment, before his attention was pulled to a lovely young woman standing a bit a way's from him not wearing any shoes.
"Uh Steve, please you don't happen to be Pepper Potts do you?"

Jess laughed and pulled her glasses down on to her face "Afraid not, Pepper is about yay high" she put her hand above her head "blond hair, blue eyes, wears much less revealing clothes and doesn't sleep in the same bed as Tony Stark."
Jess smirked and walked up to him with her hand extended "I'm Jessica Cartwright, Mr. Stark's girlfriend."

Steve flushed suddenly and took her hand "I'm sorry I didn't know-"

"Don't worry about it Mr. Rogers, uh Steve" she shook his hand and let go "I don't expect you to read very many tabloid magazines."

He chuckled "I'm afraid I don't."

Jess turned heel and made her way to the bar "You seem more like a Time magazine guy" she looked up from over the bar "or maybe the Sunday funnies."

"You got me there" he smiled and looked around, his hands behind his back.

"Have to admit, I've been a peanuts fan a long time" she lifted her leg to show off a tattoo of Snoopy she had on her right calf and threw it down "-but you probably have no idea what that even is do you?"

He took a look at the tattoo and blinked "Afraid not."

"Makes sense, Shultz started getting big time in about April of 1950, you would have all ready been a Popsicle by that point huh?"

Steve looked at her stiffly.

Jess smiled "Figured I wouldn't dance around the issue of me knowing pretty much everything there is to know about you and not just because of Tony." She started pouring herself a drink "The universe I come from treats you more like a fictional character than an actual one, heroes don't exist there" she looked up and smiled "I'm glad they do here."
