This is my Master List of fics I’ve written.  I’m linking them to my AO3 account.

Please be sure to carefully read all the tags and warnings posted for a fic – YOU are responsible for the content you choose you consume.

Updated 02 December 2023

Reader Fics

Right Now, Take Me Down (I Let You In) Tony Stark/Female Reader – Mature, Complete

Tony snoops through your phone and discovers some uh, fantasies and desires you’ve been keeping hidden. He takes it upon himself to make those fantasies and desires a reality, thanks to his amazing nanotechnology and trusted AI.  (A/B/O Roleplay)

Til the Veins Start to Shiver Bruce Banner/Female Reader – Mature, Complete

You decide to tease Bruce with some provocative photos while he's working. Bruce decides to tease you right back, and then some.  (Light Dom/Sub)

A Little Evening Break Stephen Strange/Female Reader – Mature, Complete

The Reader isn’t quick to comply with Stephen’s instructions and he gives her a hard time.

There’s Only Butterflies (Take Me Away) Stephen Strange/Reader, Strange Supreme/Reader, Defender Strange/Reader, Supreme Strange/Reader, Sinister Strange/Reader – Mature, Complete

It’s a pocket-dimension full of sunshine, with love that’s all theirs.

A Sweet Escape (To Better Days) Stephen Strange/Reader, Strange Supreme/Reader, Defender Strange/Reader, Supreme Strange/Reader, Sinister Strange/Reader – Mature, Complete

While it at first it weighed heavily on her, the knowledge that five of the most powerful beings in the multiverse were with her instead of protecting all of reality, she couldn’t deny the thrill that also came with that. The universe truly revolved around her. Her loves revolved around her and everything she was, she had, she did was for them in return.

Sometimes It Hurts Instead

Stephen/Reader (unrequited), Stephen/Clea, Reader/Reader's Husband - Teen, Complete

You see that the man you'd once had feelings for has moved on. You're not sure how to feel.

Waiting for the sun to be rising

Stephen/Chronically Ill!Reader - Mature, Complete

After a wild romp, you relax with Stephen and contemplate your relationship, reassuring him that regardless of what he does (or doesn’t) say you know exactly how he feels about you.

With a little peace and some harmony

Stephen/Chronically Ill!Reader - Teen, Complete

You’re sick and thanks to a weakened immune system, having a hard time resting and fighting it off. It’s absolutely miserable but lucky for you, Stephen is more than willing to step into the role of caretaker and help you feel better.

 Starker Fics (Tony Stark/Peter Parker)

Please note that Peter is an adult in all of these.

This is What You Came For Mature, Complete

Mr. Stark has had enough of what he considers to be Peter's not-so-subtle hints that he wants to get f*cked. He decides to teach Peter a lesson.

An Absolutely Peerless Cure Dark!Tony – Mature, Complete

When Peter gets the hiccups while on patrol, Tony takes it upon himself to help rid him of the pesky problem. Sure, that Wikipedia article could be absolute horseshit, and sure, Dr. Strange had been tipsy when he agreed with it, but it's a risk Tony's willing to take in his quest to draw Peter closer to him.

…And Many More Mature, Complete

Tony has a surprise for Peter's birthday, putting a true Tony Stark spin on a long-standing wish that Peter's had. Because whether he's giving or receiving, Tony is always in charge. Not that Peter's complaining.

(Just to See How It Feels) Mature, Complete

It's late. Peter's tired and wants to sleep because he has a big exam in the morning. Tony's horny. So maybe he can convince Peter to let him put in just the tip. (It's never just the tip.)

Getting the Best Mature, Complete

Peter Benjamin Parker is a genius. A once-in-a-lifetime type of genius.

And the little prick has the nerve to be undecided, even with the promise of a full-ride to MIT.

Even Saints Into Savages Mature, Complete

The mission was supposed to be a cake walk. Get in, get the stupid mystic alien amulet, get home. So, they figured it was safe enough to bring Peter along. Only Rocket assumes something, and that assumption leads to an awkward situation for everyone involved. Tony'll do whatever it takes to save Peter. If only he didn't know that he'd enjoy it so damn much. (Aliens Made Them Do It)

Back to Where You’ve Never Been Mature, Work in Progress

In an alternate reality, Peter Parker is living out his dream of being Spider-Man and working as an intern for Stark Industries (and the Avengers!) under his hero, Tony Stark, before heading off to college.  For the most part, it's incredible.  Okay, the Avengers treat him like he's still a child, and Mr. Stark's not exactly the friendliest mentor. But still, it's good.

Except that recently, Mr. Stark's been in the worst mood and Peter finds himself the unwitting focus of the man's ire.  He tries to keep his spirits up and tell himself that it's not personal, that anyone in the lab would be a target, but when Mr. Stark kicks him out, Peter knows he's done.

Then he finds himself falling for what feels like an eternity before returning to New York.  Only it's not his New York City and the Iron Man he ends up fighting alongside is definitely not his Iron Man.  Anthony Stark is kind of perfect.  The Other Avengers are kind of perfect.  Everyone here seems to love him.  And when he and Anthony are tapped by Dr. Strange to help seal the rift between realities, Peter finds himself wondering if he was supposed to be in the reality with Anthony all along.  (AU of an AU)

Updated with Chapter 13 on 11 June 2023

SpiderStrange Fics (Peter Parker/Stephen Strange)

Please note that Peter is an adult in all of these.

One in Fourteen Million, Six Hundred and Five Dark-ish!Stephen – Mature, Complete

Stephen doesn't have time to admire Peter as much as he'd like, given that they're trying to stop total Armageddon. This is the fate of the universe at stake; his attraction doesn't really have a place here. But even still...

("Oh, we're using our made-up names? Ok, I'm Spider-Man.")

Something about this stupidly brave and chatty guy intrigues him.

Now That I’ve Found You (I Won’t Let You Go) Dark!Stephen – Mature, Complete

All Stephen wants is for Peter Parker to be happy and safe... with him. When Peter rejects Stephen? Stephen doesn't take it very well. He'll just have to ensure that Peter realizes that Stephen is his future.

Only Of What’s Mine Mature, Complete

Peter wasn't expecting to find an Alpha so soon after turning 18. After all, many Omegas don't bond with an Alpha at all until they're in their mid-20s at least. But after everything on Titan and the Snap and then the Blip and Mr. Stark nearly killing himself to destroy Thanos once and for all, Stephen had taken an interest in Peter. And Peter, god help him, was just as taken with the Alpha. (A/B/O AU)

The (It’s Not Sex Pollen!) Powder of Prana Mature, Complete

Stephen warns Peter to be careful while exploring the Sanctum. Peter, naturally, doesn't listen. The Powder of Prana goes flying. And now Stephen finds himself the only person Peter trusts to keep him from dying. With sex. (Sex Pollen AU)

Private Practice Mature, Complete

Peter Parker's appointment with Dr. Strange doesn't go as he'd planned when the good doctor prescribes a certain medical procedure. (Medical Kink/Medical Play)

Yours to Break (But Always Mend) Mature, Complete

Peter’s tears had long since stopped, replaced by weak, hitched sobs sometime after what might have been the sixth or seventh blow. He couldn’t remember why snapping back at Stephen like a brat had seemed like a good idea. He couldn’t remember why breaking the rules in the first place - starting all of this - had seemed like a good idea. (Dom/Sub)

I Know the Storms Will Always Come (But I Still Love to Have You Around) Mature, WIP

After Endgame, Stephen returns from another dimension to find Peter's life threatened by Quentin Beck's schemes. He undoes the damage and takes a struggling Peter into his care.

Peter needs time and a safe place to rebuild himself; Stephen's happy to provide that, even as he works to push aside the feelings he has. It's a tricky line to walk, setting boundaries and structure for Peter while imagining those same things in a very different context.

As Peter begins to come back to his usual self, personalities and wills clash, occasionally helped along by a certain Witch and a perpetually amused and exasperated Librarian. And Stephen finds that he can't plan for everything.

These Inconvenient Fireworks Mature, WIP

After a battle, Mr. Stark crosses a line with Peter. Peter, tired of being on the receiving end of Mr. Stark's anger, asks Stephen - who's witnessed everything - to take him away. In doing so, Stephen starts down a path with Peter he didn't see coming.

Alternatively: Peter's heart gets broken and Stephen helps put it back together.

Updated 29 Nov 2021

It’s All Routine Mature, Complete

Peter Parker is back at Dr. Strange's office for a physical required by his upcoming internship. He's hoping it will be quick and easy, but when Dr. Strange finds out that he hasn't had a physical since he was a young child, his hopes are dashed. Dr. Strange intends to be very thorough. (Medical Kink/Medical Play)

You Kiss Your Sorcerer With That Mouth? Mature, Complete

During a mission, Spider-Man lets some choice words for Dr. Doom slip. Stephen's less than pleased at Peter's disregard for how he's supposed to conduct himself as Spider-Man when he's in the public eye. He gives Peter some time to think about what he's done, and has a creative way to ensure Peter thinks twice before doing it again. (Domestic Discipline)

Help Me Up, Let’s Keep On Running Mature, Complete

Peter and Stephen have several rules set up in their dynamic. The two biggest? That Peter will look after his health and well-being, and that they will always be honest with each other.  

Peter manages to break both of them in one fell swoop, and Stephen is none too pleased.

Discussions are had, actions lead to consequences, and Peter emerges from the experience secure in the knowledge that Stephen will do whatever it takes to make sure he's cared for and loved. (Domestic Discipline)

I Can See The Man That I Fell For Fighting Mature, Complete

It was supposed to be a quick in and out job. Just into the study to grab his book he’d left in there by accident the night before, and then out before Stephen even knew he was up and about. Harmless.

It wasn’t his fault that Cloak decided it needed to follow him around like some overly nosy puppy. Or that Cloak decided it needed to join him in the study as he looked for his book. Or that Cloak had decided to apparently “guard” something in the study in way that just screamed suspicious and naturally piqued Peter’s curiosity.

In and out, no harm done.

But when it became clear that Peter was overstaying his welcome in the space, Cloak had also felt the need to snitch.

He’d really, really fucked up. (Domestic Discipline)

This Back's Not Going to Break So Easily - Part 1 of 2, This Back’s Not Going to Break So Easily - Part 2 of 2

Mature, Complete

When Peter comes to Stephen upset and insisting he needs to be punished, Stephen knows something's wrong. Given a chance to calm down and feel safe, Peter explains what happened while he was at the Tower working in the labs and interrupted by Harley. Stephen reassures Peter that he did nothing wrong and does his best to comfort him.

Also featured: Stephen confronting Tony and Harley like a boss, Peter and Stephen's love, trust, and mutual respect for each other, lots of fluffy/dirty teasing, and pizza. (Domestic Discipline)

And I Let the Knots of Time Come Undone Mature, Complete

After breaking one of their established rules, Stephen finds himself at Peter's service for the day. Tasked with his least favorite chores, Stephen tries to maintain his sanity and make it through, all while reluctantly admitting to himself that all things considered, he's getting off easy.

If only he could get rid of that damn bell... (Domestic Discipline)

Our Road Gets Better With Every Bend Mature, Complete

Peter's getting ready for his junior year at Columbia. But before he goes back to school, there's the matter of his 21st birthday to deal with. Which is inevitably going to affect The Rules he and Stephen have. And what should be a nice night out for Peter's birthday takes a bit of a detour when a former acquaintance from Peter's freshman year unexpectedly runs into the happy couple.

Stephen's not jealous. No, not one bit. (Domestic Discipline)

Maybe If I Hold You Close, Baby We Could Just Let Go Teen, Complete

While the idea of accompanying Stephen to the high-brow fundraisers and charity galas seemed glamorous at first, Peter found the reality turned out to be much more disappointing. Everyone looks down their nose at him; people are forever swarming Stephen and flirting with him; and Peter usually finds himself alone, bored, counting the time until they can leave. However, he keeps attending in the hopes that he'll finally get a chance to dance with Stephen like he'd imagined.

One night he gets to dance with a surprising friend, which may finally lead to a bit of happiness at the damned events going forward.

Or Stephen might take issue, if another friend doesn’t take it upon herself to give him a clue. (Domestic Discipline)

I'm Counting On A New Beginning, A Reason For Living Mature, Complete

Peter's been in a bad mood and his recent stretch of bad luck isn't helping matters. Stephen hasn't been able to get through to him, and even when Peter takes his punishments for acting out, something's off. Worried about his partner, Stephen tries to think of what it is he might have done wrong. Upset, Peter pulls away.

It takes a bad set of prototype arrows, saving someone's life, a friend snitching, a stern Dr. Palmer taking control of a situation, a very un-teamlike spying session, and an uncomfortable discussion or two before Stephen and Peter are back on the same page. (Domestic Discipline)

Man, What Are You Doing Here? Mature, Complete

He only had one final left to take... and then he was done with everything until the fall semester of his final year as an undergraduate. Since his final wasn’t until Thursday afternoon, he didn’t see the harm in going out with some friends to celebrate and cute loose on Tuesday evening.

Would he have chosen a bar? No. He wasn’t supposed to drink on school nights and honestly, he preferred going to the movies or a show. But he was in college and honestly, it wasn’t like it needed to be a big deal.

And it wasn’t like Stephen needed to know. (Domestic Discipline)

Cold Comes From the East Side (Ch. 1)(Ch. 2)(Ch. 3) Mature, WIP

Peter breaks one of the rules in a spectacular way and suffers the consequences. It's rare for Stephen to actually be angry with him, but given the circumstances, Peter supposes the anger is more than earned. It's a hell of a situation for the pair of them and Peter wonders if they'll actually make it through. (Domestic Discipline)

Published Chapter 3 on 14 August 2023

Goodbye Grey Sky, Hello Blue Mature, WIP

In an alternate universe where trains and zeppelins are still common forms of travel and the internet and cell phones exist, Peter Parker has few options left after he's swindled out of his inheritance. Unable to pay for college, let alone keep the house left to him by his deceased aunt, he's running out of time before he's out on the streets. Desperate, Peter signs his life over to the Bureau of Civic Spousal Selections to take his chances as the selected husband of a complete stranger. After all, he only has to make it through a year and then he can choose to annul.

Dr. Stephen Strange has little interest in marriage, preferring to focus on his career. When his career is threatened by what a nosy board of directors considers a "lack of personal fulfillment and settling down," he opts to select a spouse through the BCSS and chooses Peter Parker. The young man's profile suggests intelligence and compatibility. It's not ideal, but if after a year it's not working out, he can always annul the marriage and send Peter on his way.

It's a marriage neither truly wants, with sharp learning curves for both. It's either going to be forever or it's going to go down in flames. (Domestic Discipline, 1950s-Modern Fusion AU)

Updated with Chapter 31 on 2 December 2023

Nevertheless, Recover Mature, Complete

Peter finds himself once again in Dr. Strange's office, hoping to find a reason and a cure for his latest ailment.  He's come to the right place, since Dr. Strange will do everything it takes to diagnose and treat Peter. Hopefully, Peter will survive the embarrassment. (Medical Kink/Medical Play)

Doctor 13 Fics (Christine Palmer/Sharon Carter)

Baby, You Don't Gotta Fight Mature, WIP

Ch. 1, Ch. 2, Ch. 3, Ch. 4, Ch. 5, Ch. 6, Ch. 7

Dr. Christine Palmer is just living her life, content in her job as a trauma surgeon and happily moonlighting as Peter Parker's general physician at her old friend Stephen's request.

One evening as she finishes up examining Peter, she encounters the force of nature that's Sharon Carter, who seems to have a reckless streak a mile wide.

She's not sure what to make of the spy-turned-Avenger, but she can tell Sharon's hurting, and Christine's healing nature won't be ignored.

Iron 13 Fics (Tony Stark/Sharon Carter)

Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3

No one else but Tony thought anything was off about Sharon. Investigating on his own, he discovered and brought down her Skrull impersonator and when he found the real Sharon near death, he made a choice that would change both of their lives.

MISC

“Loki Darling did you hear? The New guy is pulling in quite the catch.” Agnes laughed.

“I’m afraid you have lost me Mrs. Harkness.”

“That new fisherman Tony, that moved here five months ago. He’s been drawing the attention of almost every woman and even some men in town. He is a handsome piece of eye candy.” The older woman winked causing Wanda to roll her eyes.

“Yes Agnes so you have said. We’ll see you later I need to talk to Loki about next farmers market, we’re in charge of the stall placements.” Wanda hooked her arm with the Raven and pulled him into the store.

Personajes menos preciados por Marvel ( UCM)

1. Sharon Carter

2. Lady Sif

3. Christine Palmer

Marvel me sigue decepcionado por sus historias y falta de congruencia. Es machista porque los personajes femeninos mejor desarrollados son menos preciados y olvidados. Sólo termina siendo un personaje x sin sentido. Todos sabemos que terminan siendo ridículos. La fase 5 inició mal como termino el 4 siendo una basura. Solo veo los memes y los gif para ver el ucm . Las series son bien aburridos y predicibles. Odio a Kevin feige profundamente.

You said poly ships and rare ship ramblings are welcome, so here goes.

Sharon Carter a super spy who has to be in control and on-point whenever she's working, just desperately wants, NEEDS, to let go and let herself be taken care of. Enter Christine, pretty and sweet and with enough of an edge to make Sharon go 😳 and craves control because no matter how hard she tries, how perfect her skills, in the OR she can't save everyone. So they dance around and they fuck and Sharon just *pushes* because she needs to be put in her place so badly and finally Christine snaps and takes control and the result has them fucked out and satiated like they've been thirsting for. And it works. Two strong and confident women who fall into each other's needs. And then maybe one day Bucky's around and Sharon's being a brat (maybe because Chrissy's been so busy at work) and brats exist to get tamed to his mind and after a "go ahead" glance from Christine, hauls Sharon over his lap and spanks her, makes her apologize to him and Christine with every blow until she's sobbing and sorry and then afterwards the two of them cuddle Sharon between them and take her apart with orgasm after orgasm and then fuck viciously when their girl is insensate and satisfied.

Sharon/Christine? and BUCKY?! We're eating good, hot damn! Never thought about 'em, but people are sleeping on Christine! She's cheeky, she's cute AND has the patience to put up with Stephen's bullshit.

Dream domme, honestly. Wifey, you're a genius! I rate this 🧠🧠🤯 out of 🧠🧠🧠!

The One With the New Girl

You walked into Pepper and Tony’s apartment, seeing Christine sitting at the table, scrolling through her phone. She smiled at you and you walked over, leaning over the back of one of the chairs.

“Guess what.”

Christine raised her eyebrows and you smiled.

“Baby’s the size of a brussel sprout this week.” “Aw! Our little brussel sprout.”

You smiled and pulled the chair out, sitting across the table from her.

“Yep. Never mind the leg cramps that wake me up at night and the sore, oversized boobs. I’m having a brussel sprout.”

Christine smiled.

“This is so much fun. I’ve never cared about random fruits and veggies until now.”

You laughed, resting back in the chair and laying a hand on your stomach. Christine nodded to you.

“Can you feel anything yet?”

You shook your head.

“My app says the baby should be moving around and stuff by now, but it’ll still be a while before I can feel it. Maybe we’ll get to see at the doctor’s appointment next week.” “How exciting!”

You and Christine looked over as Pepper came out of the bedroom wrapped in her robe, yawning widely. She shook her head at you and waved towards the door.

“I love you dearly, but I need coffee.” “I’ll go, but real quick. Have either of you heard from Steve?”

Christine looked down at her phone and Pepper shook her head as she yawned again.

“Not today, why?”

You shrugged.

“I called him the other night and left a voicemail and he hasn’t responded. I texted him too, but I didn’t hear from him all weekend. So he’s either ignoring me or he’s turned off his read receipts.”

Pepper shook her head and you sighed.

“If you see or hear from him, ask him to call me, will you? I’ve got to go to work.”

Pepper nodded and you blew her a kiss before you left. When the door closed behind you, Pepper turned to Christine, crossing her arms over her chest.

“All right, spill.” “What?” “You went strangely quiet when she asked about Steve. What’s up?”

Christine sighed, tossing her phone to the table.

“It’s not my business to tell.” “Like that has ever stopped us.”

Christine sighed again, nodding towards the coffee pot. Pepper pressed the button and it began percolating. She turned back, sucking in a breath as Christine met her eyes and shook her head.

“You’re not going to like it.”

You were standing in the kitchen, slowly stirring a large pot of what was now potato soup when Bucky walked in. He frowned at you and you shook your head.

“I don’t know. It sounded good and nothing has sounded good to me in forever.” “Well, I’m game. Who cares if it’s ninety degrees outside?”

You smiled, glancing over your shoulder at him.

“It’s actually soup this time. Remember last time when it was like mashed potatoes?” “Hey, it was still good.”

You smiled, grabbing two bowls from the cabinet and filling one for Bucky, handing it to him before filling yours. He sat at the bar, blowing on a spoonful of the soup before eating it. He groaned, nodding his head.

“God, this is good.”

You smiled, taking a bite of your own soup, eyes widening when you swallowed.

“It is good.” “Hey, maybe we finally found something our little gummy bear likes.”

You smiled, glancing down at your not-yet-blossoming stomach. Bucky had studied your sonogram photos, then took to trying to convince everyone that the baby looked like a gummy bear. It had worked, to your amusement. You lifted the spoon to your lips, blowing on it before taking another bite.

“It’s the size of a brussel sprout this week.” “Aw, those are so little!”

You laughed, stirring your spoon around your soup.

“Hey, Buck?”

He made a noise because his mouth was full, and you couldn’t help the smile before you spoke.

“Have you heard from Steve lately?”

He nodded as he swallowed.

“Yeah, I talked to him when he got out of class earlier.”

You pursed your lips and nodded your head. You glanced at the counter, then set your bowl down.

“Do you want something to drink?”

Bucky nodded and you walked to the fridge.

“Beer, water, or apple juice?”

Bucky laughed.

“Oh, how the mighty have fallen.” “You know what? You can get your own drink.” “I’m sorry! I’m sorry, I will take whatever you give me.”

You rolled your eyes and grabbed a beer, sliding it across the bar to him. He twisted off the top and tossed it towards the trash can, both of you wincing when it bounced off the side and clinked onto the floor.

You stared into your bowl and Bucky took a drink from his beer.

“Hey.”

You lifted your eyes to his and he smiled at you.

“What’s up?”

You blew out a breath, leaning over the counter.

“I think Steve’s mad at me.” “What makes you think that?” “I called him like three days ago and he still hasn’t called me back. I texted him and he’s either ignoring it or he’s turned off his read receipts. I tried to call him again and it just goes straight to voicemail, so if you’ve talked to him, then it’s just me.”

Bucky shook his head.

“Why would he be mad at you?”

You shook your head.

“I don’t know. I mean, I went and talked to him about my business dinner the other night and he said he was fine with it.” “And you believed him?”

You rolled your eyes.

“Don’t start.” “Come on, Y/N. You told the father of your child that you were going on a date—don’t even try to feed me that ‘business dinner’ bullshit—with another guy and he was fine with it?” “He said he was! Am I supposed to call him a liar?” “I don’t know, did you tell him that you were dying for him to stake his claim with you?”

Your eyes widened and Bucky nodded.

“Yeah, I didn’t think so.”

You swallowed, shaking your head.

“It’s not—“ “I’ve got eyes, Y/N. We all do. We all see you two dancing around each other and quite frankly, we’re all sick of it. Tell him you want more. What’s the worst he can say?” “He can say no.”

Bucky’s eyebrows furrowed when he looked to you. You shook your head.

“You look like that, so you’ve never had to deal with rejection. But for some people, the fear of rejection is more powerful than anything else.” “Even if the other person feels the same way?”

You closed your eyes, shaking your head. You pushed your bowl away and started to walk to your bedroom.

“Y/N. Y/N, come on. Don’t—“

You shut your door and Bucky hung his head, blowing out a breath.

When two more days went by without you hearing from Steve, more texts ignored and more calls going straight to voicemail, you decided you’d had enough. You grabbed your purse, told your coworkers you were taking a long lunch, and rode the subway to Brooklyn. You were nervous, of course, so nervous you wanted to throw up, but there was a little piece of you that was irritated, and you were clinging to that.

You bypassed the coffee shop this time, walking straight to the college and into the building where Steve’s office was. You made your way down the hall, only to discover that his door was shut. It was dark behind the blinds on his door and you blew out a breath as you lifted a hand to rest against the wood.

“Can I help you?”

You turned to see a girl standing behind you, curly brown hair hiding one side of her face. You gave her a smile and pointed back at Steve’s office with your thumb.

“Is … surely he’s not Mr. Rogers.”

The girl gave a soft laugh.

“Professor Rogers?” “That makes more sense.” “Most of us just call him Steve, though.”

You felt your cheeks warm.

“Yeah, he’s easy to get along with, huh?” “He’s a great professor.”

You nodded, crossing your arms over your chest. The girl stepped forward, nodding to you.

“He’s in class right now. And he’s got another class right after it. He won’t be back in his office until later this afternoon.”

You sighed, moving a hand to fuss with your hair.

“Figures. I never got him to tell me his schedule.” “You can leave a note for him, if you want. On the board or on a post it. We usually just leave the post it on the doors if they’re not in the office.”

You smiled.

“Thank you.”

She nodded, turning and walking away. You thought of leaving him a note, then decided against it. You let out a breath and left the building, going to the coffee shop you’d found before to try and find something for your suddenly ravenous stomach.

Watching the kids walk by with their backpacks on and headphones in their ears really made you miss college. Not the work, but the experience. Spending every waking moment with friends, staying out all night and then dragging to class the next morning. Stressing over tests and studying until you fell asleep, making a mad dash to class the next morning in an attempt to not be late.

You sighed, taking another sip of lemonade and watching out the window. The bell above the door rang and you glanced that way as you took a bite of the cinnamon-chocolate swirl pastry you’d been unable to pass up.

Your breath caught in your throat when you saw Steve reach up and take the sunglasses off his nose. You blinked, a smile coming to your lips.

It quickly slid from your face when you saw the woman beside him, taking sunglasses from her face as well. You took in a breath when you watched them walk to the counter, Steve’s hand on her lower back.

You felt your face flush and you could hear your blood rushing in your ears. You closed your eyes and took in a few deep breaths, letting them out slowly.

“Ma’am? Are you okay?”

You looked up into the worried eyes of the waitress who had brought your things to you. You pushed a smile onto your face.

“Yes. I just have to go.” “Can I get you a refill?”

You shook your head, standing up and smiling at her.

“Thank you, but no.”

She smiled and nodded, and you grabbed your purse before looking to the counter. Steve was staring back at you and you felt your breath catch in your throat. You waited for a moment, but when he dipped his head to listen to whatever the blonde with him was saying, you turned and ran out of the shop.

Pepper looked up as her front door opened and she smiled before she got a good look at you. She stood up, rounding the couch.

“What happened?”

You shook your head, tears finally falling from your eyes.

“I messed up.” “What did you do?”

You shook your head again, sobbing when Pepper took hold of your arms. You couldn’t talk, so she just wrapped you in a hug, turning you and meeting Tony’s worried eyes when he stepped from the bedroom. He walked over and kissed the top of your head, wrapping you in his arms from the other side, only making you cry harder.

“I’ll kill him.” “Oh, sit down.”

Bucky stopped pacing to glare at Pepper. She shrugged her shoulders, fingers gently drifting through your hair. Bucky sighed, coming to sit on the edge of the coffee table, watching you as your shoulders slowly moved up and down as you breathed. You’d finally fallen asleep just a few minutes ago, with your head in Pepper’s lap.

Bucky shook his head, looking up to meet Pepper’s eyes.

“What is he thinking?”

She shook her head, then let out a breath.

“Christine said he had a woman at his office that he said he was taking to lunch or something the other day.” “That stupid dipshit.” “Bucky.” “No, don’t ‘Bucky’ me.”

Pepper shushed him and he blew out a breath, quieting his voice, but hissing out the words.

“You can’t tell me you don’t see it.”

Pepper rolled her eyes.

“Of course I see it. The only people who don’t see it are Y/N and Steve.” “So what the fuck is he doing seeing a woman he works with? The last I heard, there wasn’t anyone there he was even remotely interested in.”

Pepper shrugged.

“That sounds like something his best friend could talk about with him.”

Bucky rolled his eyes.

“If we’re taking sides here, I’m on hers.”

Bucky pointed at you and Pepper raised an eyebrow. Bucky shrugged.

“Call me misogynistic or whatever, but pregnancy trumps lifelong friendship.”

Pepper smiled.

“That’s not misogynistic. It’s sweet. But—“

Bucky shook his head as he pointed at her.

“Don’t even start.”

She made a motion like she was zipping her lips and Bucky sighed.

“Do you think I can carry her across the hall without her waking up?”

Pepper sighed.

“I specifically chose this soft, expensive couch for reasons such as this. Let’s see if we can just let her sleep.”

Bucky nodded, helping Pepper finagle her way out from under you, placing a pillow under your head and covering you with a blanket. Bucky gently smoothed out your hair and sighed as he stood up. Pepper rubbed his back as she walked him to the door.

“You’re a good man, Bucky Barnes.”

He smiled as he kissed her cheek, putting his hands in his pockets as he walked across the hall.

It was dark when you woke up, and you winced when an ache shot through your lower back. You sat up, wincing again, lifting a hand to your messy hair when you looked around, realizing where you were.

You sighed, pulling the blanket around your shoulders, staring at Pepper’s living room in the dark. The light above the stove was on and you smiled before you got to your feet, stretching your sore muscles. You made your way to the kitchen, opening the fridge before closing it again. You let out a shaky breath, then shook your head. You walked to one of the almost floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out of it, taking in a deep breath and letting it out slowly.

“Hey, what are you doing up here?”

Steve smiled as he glanced over his shoulder. You raised an eyebrow when you saw him sitting on the ledge and he rolled his eyes, still smiling.

“I’m not gonna jump.” “Well, I’d feel better if we could talk on level ground.”

Steve’s smile widened as he spun around, jumping down to where you and he were on equal footing. He reached out a hand and you laid yours in his as the two of you walked to a bench and sat down, sitting in silence for a moment.

“You okay?”

You nodded, looking up at him.

“Are you?”

He nodded, and you smiled, bumping his shoulder with yours.

“You were gone when I woke up the other day.”

Steve sighed.

“Yeah, I … I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t want you to think I was regretting it, but I didn’t want it to be awkward either. And I didn’t want Bucky to see me sneaking out of your room, so…”

He shrugged his wide shoulders, then glanced at you.

“Do you regret it?”

You felt your cheeks warm.

“No, I don’t.”

Steve nodded.

“Good. Me either.”

You gave his hand a squeeze and he met your eyes. You shook your head, leaning over to rest your head on his shoulder as you spoke softly.

“What are we doing?”

Steve sighed, turning to look at the tops of the buildings around you.

“I don’t know.” “Do you want something here?”

Steve sighed again, letting go of your hand as he stood and began pacing around.

“I don’t … I don’t know. Do you?”

You shrugged.

“I mean … I had a great time the other night, but …” “But?”

You stood up as well, shaking your head at him.

“You’re one of my best friends. You … you’re my safe place, Steve. If something went wrong, I don’t … I don’t know if I could handle it if I lost you.”

He walked over and wrapped you in a hug. You clutched him tightly, tears welling in your eyes as you put your chin on his shoulder. He just held you for the longest time, until he finally spoke, voice low.

“I can’t lose you either. I love you, Y/N. I don’t think what we did was a mistake, but … maybe we should keep it as a one-time thing.” “And just between us?” “I’m not about to kiss and tell. Our secret’s safe with me.”

You nodded, sniffling. You stepped back from him, wiping your fingers under your eyes.

“Don’t cry.” “I’m not. We just don’t usually get this deep.”

Steve chuckled, laying his hands on your shoulders.

“I’ll always be here for you. No matter what, okay?”

You nodded.

“Right back at you, buddy.”

A wide smile came to his face.

“Thanks, buddy.”

He pulled you in for another hug, kissing the top of your head. You closed your eyes as you took in a deep breath, resting your head against his chest.

You blinked as tears slid down your cheeks, sniffling before you lifted the blanket to wipe your eyes. You turned to walk back to the couch, gasping as a pain shot through your lower stomach. Your eyes were wide as you moved a hand under your belly button, feeling your heartbeat kick up. You didn’t feel anything else, but the fear in your heart was almost palpable.

You wanted to call Steve so badly, and tears came to your eyes as you slowly made your way to the couch again. You bit your lips to try to hold back the sob, glancing over when Pepper’s bedroom door opened.

“Hey, is everything okay out here?”

You shook your head, letting out a quiet sob as Tony walked over to you, sitting beside you and pulling you to his side.

“What is it? You okay?” “I don’t … I don’t know.” “What happened?”

You still had your hand low on your belly, and Tony leaned back to look at you.

“Are you hurting?”

You shook your head.

“No, I … I just had this pain and it … it scared me.” “What kind of pain?” “Like a cramp.” “Did it stop?”

You nodded.

“Yeah, it was … just one, but …”

Tony sighed, pulling you to his side again, resting his head on yours.

“Try and relax.” “I am. It’s hard.” “I know.”

You gave a shaky exhale, speaking softly.

“Are you okay?”

Tony nodded.

“Yeah, I’m fine. Just checking on you.”

You tapped his leg and he let go of you. You turned to face him, one eyebrow raising.

“You’re fine? Waking up at …”

You glanced at the clock on the stove in the kitchen.

“Three seventeen A.M. is normal behavior for you?”

Tony sighed, rubbing a hand down his face.

“Bad dream. I managed to get out of this one without waking Pep, so I thought I’d come chill out here and …” “You forgot I was here, didn’t you?”

Tony winced and you gave a quiet laugh.

“Do you have bad dreams often?”

Tony smiled at you.

“That is not your concern. You’ve got bigger worries to deal with. Go get in the bed with Pepper.” “But if you want to go back to sleep—“ “I’ve got a guest room or this couch.”

You bit your lip and Tony nodded, the smile still on his face.

“Go. I’ll be fine.”

You sighed, closing your eyes as he kissed your forehead. You stood up and left the blanket behind, rubbing your arms as you walked into the bedroom. You silently made your way to the bed and pulled the covers back.

“Tony?” “Guess again.”

Pepper sat up, yawning as she rubbed her eyes.

“You okay?”

You nodded.

“Tony thought we could switch places for a while.” “Is he okay?” “Bad dream.”

Pepper sighed as the two of you settled down in the California King. You pulled the plush covers over your body and yawned.

“He could come back in here. There’s more than enough room for the three of us.” “Wouldn’t be the first time.”

You gave a soft laugh, yawning again as your heavy eyes drifted closed. Pepper reached over and laced her fingers with yours, and you smiled as you drifted off to sleep.

You woke up when sunshine was warming your face. You blinked and slowly sat up, pushing your hair out of your face and glancing around. The room you were in was unfamiliar, yet …

You smiled at the brand new picture on the nightstand, one of Pepper and Tony’s first kiss as husband and wife. You frowned when you realized you’d rolled all the way to Pepper’s side of the bed and you shook your head. You crawled out of the bed, yawning and stretching. You grabbed Pepper’s brush and fought with your tangled hair, tying it into a ponytail until you could get across the hall to your shower. You walked to the bedroom door and opened it, coming to a stop as soon as your feet hit the threshold.

“Hey, there she is!”

Tony jumped up from the table, walking to hand you a small bottle of Sprite. He opened it and leaned in closely, speaking under his breath.

“Play it cool.” “What the hell is this?” “Just smile and we’ll get you out as soon as we can.”

You pushed a smile onto your face, taking a sip from the bubbly Sprite. All of your friends were gathered in the kitchen, along with one extra. Bucky turned to you, his smile going apologetic.

“We were wondering how long you’d be out.”

You glanced at the clock on the stove behind him, eyes widening.

“I had a … rough night last night.”

Bucky’s brows furrowed and you gave a slight shake of your head. You looked to Pepper’s back at the stove, Christine gnawing on her bottom lip as she stood beside her. Steve leaned back from where he’d been whispering to the guest, turning to face you.

“This is Y/N. Y/N, this is Sharon. We work together.”

You nodded as you recognized the woman sitting beside him as the woman that was with him in the coffee shop the day before. You pushed a smile onto your face and held out a hand.

“It’s nice to meet you.” “You too. I’ve heard so much about all of you; it’s nice to finally put faces with the names.”

You nodded, suddenly feeling the walls closing in.

“Well, I hate to be the one to leave the party so early, but I’ve got to get to work. I’m … incredibly late as it is.” “It’s Saturday, honey.”

You looked to Christine, shaking your head.

“God. See, I don’t even know what day it is! Maybe I should see about getting some more sleep.” “Y/N—“ “I think I’m getting a migraine. It was so nice to meet you, Sharon.” “You too.”

You set the Sprite on the counter as you hurried to the door, closing it behind you before you sprinted across the hall. You ran for the bathroom, kneeling in front of the toilet and rocking back and forth as you wrapped your arms around your stomach.

“Hey, hey. Breathe.”

You shook your head, gasping out a breath, only realizing tears were cascading down your cheeks when Bucky’s gentle hands wiped them away.

“It’s okay. You’re okay.”

You shook your head, sobbing out a breath. Bucky helped you off your knees, pulling you to him, both of you sitting on the bathroom floor as he held you while you cried.

“What happened to me?”

You were finally off the bathroom floor, but now in a warm bubble bath. Bucky had insisted on it, and you weren’t about to argue with him.

“What do you mean?”

Christine was on the bathroom floor now, flipping through a magazine while Bucky ordered a pizza, because that finally sounded appetizing to you and they were jumping to capitalize on it.

You glanced over at her, saw her make a face before she turned the page in her magazine. She flicked her eyes towards you, then sat up straighter.

“What?”

You shook your head.

“When did I become the kind of girl who cried on the bathroom floor because a guy brought a girl to meet us?” “Okay, first of all, it wasn’t ‘a guy.’ It was Steve. And you love him.” “I do not.” “Keep telling yourself that.”

You narrowed your eyes and Christine shrugged.

“This whole thing is weird to me. Yeah, I know you had a date the other night, but—“ “It was a business dinner.”

Christine rolled her eyes.

“Can we just cut the bullshit? You went on a date. Steve said he was fine with it, but the next day he’s meeting some woman he works with for coffee because he’s ‘been wanting to get to know her.’ Okay, first of all? He didn’t give one fuck about her until you went on your date.” “He told me to go!” “And you believed him?!”

You blinked, and Christine got to her knees, shaking her head.

“I swear to God, you and Steve are the dumbest college-educated people I have ever met. And I know Bucky Barnes.” “I heard that!”

You couldn’t help the giggle, and Christine shook her head again.

“If you ask me—“ “Which nobody has!”

Christine ignored Bucky and continued talking.

“You and Steve need to sit down and have a long talk and put it all on the table. He doesn’t care about Sharon like he does you. He needs to let her go before he hurts her.” “Chris …”

She sighed, moving to touch the side of the tub.

“Honey… it’s okay for you to like him. It’s okay for you to want more with him. You’re having a baby together, Y/N. It’s okay to give the two of you a shot and see what happens.” “And what happens when it ends?”

You looked up at her, tears sparkling in your eyes. She shook her head.

“What if it doesn’t?”

You shook your head, swallowing before you spoke.

“I don’t want to lose him.” “So you’ll let your heart break instead? You’ll let the chance go by and always wonder what might have been while you schlep your kid to him every other weekend and holiday?”

You looked at the bubbles in the water and Christine sighed.

“Don’t give up on him, Y/N. I’ll—“ “Don’t. He … he’s made his decision.”

Christine closed her eyes and you coughed before you shifted in the water, sloshing it around.

“Can you hand me that towel? It’s getting cold.”

Christine put a towel on the closed toilet seat, grabbing her magazine and leaving the bathroom. You leaned back in the tub, closing your eyes and taking a breath before sliding under the water.

You stepped into Pepper’s apartment a few days later, giving her a smile. You walked to the fruit basket on the counter, sifting through it before picking up a lime. Tony narrowed his eyes, then shrugged.

“Want a margarita? It’s a little early in the morning, and it’ll have to be virgin, which is a travesty, but …”

You rolled your eyes at Tony, then held the lime in front of your belly.

“That’s how big it is this week.” “Oh wow!”

Tony’s eyes widened and you smiled.

“One site said lime, another said passion fruit. I don’t know where you can get passion fruits in Manhattan, so I’m sticking with lime.”

Pepper smiled.

“Little baby lime.” “Hey, have you heard from Steve today?”

Pepper and Tony shook their heads. Tony picked the paper back up and went back to reading as he spoke.

“Did you try texting him?”

You shook your head, putting the lime back in the basket.

“He doesn’t answer my texts, so I stopped bothering him.” “Y/N—“ “It’s fine. I’ve got to get to work. Love you.”

You left the apartment and Tony and Pepper exchanged a glance and a sigh before he took her hand and lifted it to his lips.

You stood outside the building, hands in the pockets of the light jacket you had on. You were constantly cold these days, even in the August heat. You checked your watch, then blew out a breath. You tapped your foot on the ground, then picked up your phone and dialed the number to Brooklyn College, typing in the extension for Steve’s office. It rang and rang, until an unfamiliar voice picked up.

“Thank you for calling BC. This is Michelle, how can I help you?”

You swallowed.

“Uh, yes. I’m trying to get in touch with Steve Rogers?” “If your call bounced here he’s not in his office.” “Do you have any idea when he’ll be back?” “He has a class that’s finishing up right now, but he’s blocked out the rest of the afternoon.”

Your heart gave a thump in your chest, and Michelle spoke again.

“If you ask me, he’s probably taking his girlfriend for a long lunch.” “Girlfriend?” “Yeah, he and the new English comp instructor are the talk of the campus.”

You closed your eyes, pushing a smile onto your face.

“Thank you, Michelle.” “Did you want to leave a message for him?”

You blinked back tears.

“No, uh … no. But thanks.”

You hung up the phone, sniffling and dropping it into your purse. You gave a shaky sigh, rubbing your hands over your face before turning and walking into the building alone. You rode the elevator to the third floor, walking into an office and signing your name on the sheet. You took a seat and glanced around, fingers itching for your phone. You could call Pepper or Christine or even Bucky and they’d be there in no time.

You sat back in the chair instead, shaky hand going to pick up a magazine. You should probably get used to doing things on your own, right?

“I’ll see you at the appointment in two weeks, right?”

Steve flashed you a smile, leaning back and tapping the calendar on the wall, where a green heart marked the day.

“I wouldn’t miss it.”

You blew out a shaky breath, flipping open the magazine, waiting for the nurse to call your name.

[ironstrange-is-the-endgame]

Steve Rogers And Peter Parker play matchmaker with them because they’re sick of the pINING (also I’m tired of the Steve Rogers hate :()

I got terribly carried away with this. Also, I can’t write getting together fics, apparently. That said, this is also for the anon who asked Steve makes ironstrange happen. It’ extremely long and filled with a lot of ships of mine, I’m sorry, I just carried away. 

Also tw for Bucky’s past internalized homophobia (is just mentioned but still).

Steve Rogers had been a lot of things in his life. A symbol, a legend, a man behind time, a teammate, a friend, a threat for the world, an outlaw, a lover, a hero, again, but he had never been the kind of person who minded others’ business.

Steve Rogers was an observant man as well, and while he didn’t really care about what was going on between Tony Stark and the Supreme Sorcerer, he couldn’t deny that something existed.

It all started once they managed to revert the Snap and the ones who had been dusted came back to life. Steve and Tony had to work together, and they did it, trying to suppress all the unsaid things that had been between them in the past two years. Not speaking about that was better. They had more important things to focus on, and both of them were avoiding the specific topic concerning Siberia and Bucky. This until Thanos’s body laid on the dusty floor of the Wakandan battlefield.

Well, even after, considering that Steve had been very, very busy in trying to speak Bucky into the entire “I’ve always been in love with you” ordeal. Steve cared about Tony, but he would have chosen Bucky over and over again, and that was clear to all the people involved.

So, when the majority of the Avengers headed back in New York, Steve and Bucky decided to stay in Wakanda a little bit longer, to help T’Challa in the rebuilding of his own kingdom, take some time for themselves, and figure things out. Nat’s malicious smile, when he said that loud, was still haunting Steve’s memories, but once his friend all but threw herself in Bucky’s arms whispering something which Barnes still didn’t want to tell him in his ear, Steve realized his life was going on the right path, for once since 1945.

But, of course, despite Wakanda being a literal paradise, Steve knew that he still had things to do, back home. He wasn’t a coward, he wasn’t going to hide forever in Africa in order to avoid his old friend. They needed to speak, and they needed to work together, again, in case some looming threat was waiting for them at the corners of this universe. Or a different one, if Wong wasn’t a liar. And considering that the man didn’t give Rogers that kind of vibes, he was pretty sure the Avengers couldn’t just retire.

So, thanks to T’Challa’s help, who all but bought their pardons to the UN, Steve suspected - but it wasn’t like he could be picky about his coming back in the US - they managed to land at the JFK, journalists and photographers miraculously interested in something else, apparently.

Natasha and Fury were the only people standing near the airstrip, along with a blonde woman that Steve had never seen before.

“Captain, Sergeant,” The woman gathered them. “Major Carol Danvers. It’s a pleasure to have you back. Director Fury will update you on the new version of the Accords you’ll be asked to sign. Agent Romanoff and Tony Stark went through them which is the reason why she’s with us today.”

Steve wondered why the woman was there, to be honest, but decided to keep his questions for another time; and while he felt Bucky’s body straightened uncomfortably at the mention of Stark, the soft squeeze his boyfriend gave him was enough for Steve to understand that he would have been fine, for the time being.

During the car ride, they both understood that they were heading to the Avengers Compound, that Carol Danvers worked with the team of New York during the planning of the strategies that lead to the defeat of the Mad Titan, that Phil Coulson was still alive (Steve was sincerely relieved by that information. He really liked the man and felt like his death was on him), and, most important, about the New Accords. Which contained a lot of restrictions for him (and, surprisingly enough, not for Bucky).

Apparently, being very likely the next queen of Wakanda brought Nat to have more freedom than everyone else in the so-called “Team Cap”, or maybe Stark was just being petty toward him. Not that Steve could blame him, but every hope to go back to Brooklyn needed to be stored away for the time being, apparently.

--

“Stark wants to see you,” Sam told him, and for a moment Steve found himself looking at his friend, wandering with whom he was speaking. Since Bucky and he came back from Wakanda, the man had been a sort of ghost. They met a couple of times, of course, during meetings both with the Avengers and the New Accords Commission, but it wasn’t like they really spoke in those occasions. Stark wanted to see him came out of nowhere.

“Did he mention why?” Steve asked. Sam shook his head, moving closer and looking over Steve’s shoulder to meet Sharon’s smile. Skype was the greatest invention of the century if you asked Cap. He and Peggy’s niece were still in more than good terms, and with the fact that she worked with Everett Ross and spent half of her time in Wakanda anyway, she really helped him with the entire Bucky question.

“No, but he’s with Strange, so if you need back-ups just tell me,” But he was looking at Sharon and probably Steve had to leave the two of them alone. Oh yes, Steve was also a good observer.

“It’s fine, thanks,” He said, instead, leaving the ‘Rogues common room’ and following Friday’s voice to reach her creator. Tony was seated on one of the couches, half curled up against the Supreme Sorcerer. At Stark’s other side there was a redheaded woman that Steve had never seen before and Bruce. The four of them seemed to be invested in some conversation that Steve couldn’t hear from where he was and that didn't want to eavesdrop.

He found himself asking how much he missed from not coming back from Wakanda. After the Snap, he went back to the Compound just to see what was left of the City he loved, and then came back in Africa leaving Bruce, Rhodey and Tony (once he came back from the space) to coordinate the scientific resources while he took care of the search for Thanos. Natasha was looking for Clint all over the world, and Thor was in the middle of the space, searching for the remains of his people along with someone called Valkyrie. Most of the people he knew in that span of time, were from Wakanda or from the Army, and none of them was the woman in the common room.

But, anyway, introductions should be postponed because the moment the four of them acknowledged of Rogers’s presence, Banner and the woman left, and Tony straightened up on the couch. Steve recognized that behaviour. It was the one Stark showed when he was speaking with politicians or lawyers, fake smile and all. Being at the other side of that was slightly uncomfortable for the super soldier, and he couldn’t even imagine how it was for the people who wanted to ask Stark some favour.

“Sam told me you wanted to speak,” Steve said, looking at the two men in front of him and questioning why Strange was there. He met the man’s companion and trusted Wong, but he knew too few about the Sorcerer Supreme to understand why he was around. If Tony wanted to speak about Siberia, which was highly probable, involving the other man meant that the genius had someone ready to agree with everything he was going to say.

Maybe he should have asked for Wilson to join him.

“Oh, yeah. It’s more Stephen’s, here, idea. Like, I agree on everything, almost, of what he said and we need to speak, and considering that every time is just the two of us we blow up. Well, Stephen is Switzerland.”

“Did you really just quoted Twilight?” Strange asked, mildly offended, apparently. The sorcerer was a different book to read from Tony, and Cap was just too surprised to do anything else but nodding, listening to what the younger man was saying. “Anyway, I came to know about the Siberian ordeal, and while I suspect both of you are trying to pretend it never happened, you are still working together, and living in the same place, so I think it’s better if you figure it out once for all. We are all tired of your passive-aggressive behaviour.”

Steve nodded. He tried to speak with Tony when Stark came back, but that wasn’t the right moment, he understood that much too late. The man gave him a small smile and told him that they were good. They weren’t.

“I’m sorry,” Tony let out before that Steve could say anything. He didn’t even understand what the man in front of him was sorry for. There were tons of things Steve blamed him, before. Now he couldn't bear himself to think about those. They both were wrong. Steve still didn’t believe to let others decide for their intervention was a good idea, but this didn’t mean that he wasn’t sorry for having tried to kill Tony.

He didn’t want to blame his boyfriend, because it wasn’t Bucky’s fault if he couldn’t keep his punches when he was involved, but he knew that seeing the man he loved being beaten by one of his friends drove him crazy.

“When I saw the video, I lost my control. I should have seen that was what Zemo wanted. I should have trusted you, back at the airport. If I did, Rhodey…” His voice trailed off, and Strange’s hand was on his shoulder a moment later. Tony rose his eyes to look at the Sorcerer and a moment later both of them nodded. Steve couldn’t help but noticed a sort of tenderness in Stark’s glance. “I’m sorry.”

Steve shook his head. He wasn’t ready for that. Once he walked into the room and understood what Tony wanted to speak about, he thought it was going to end in another fight. Not Stark telling him he was sorry. That changed the perspective of things.

“I was scared that you could kill him,” He said, who he was speaking about went unsaid. “What they did to him… Bucky would have never, he knew Howard, they were friends. And I know this doesn't justify what I’ve done. I knew he was alive, and I knew what he did. It was my call to take. But I just couldn’t... Hide what I knew about Bucky because I wanted to save him,” That was the reason why he deleted the file before giving the flash-drive to Nat. That was the reason why that video wasn’t among the other files spread in the world after the SHIELD downfall. “But I had other ways to stop you from killing him.”

He ran a hand in his hair. Steve was exhausted by simply stand here and speak and it wasn’t something that ever happened to him. He knew whatever kind of friendship he could have built with Tony was as good as dead, but Stark needed to know. He must give that much to the man.

“Thanos killed Gamora, and when Quill understood that, on Titan, he blew our only opportunity to take the gauntlet off from him,” Tony said, and that was the last thing Steve expected to hear. Nobody but the people who were there knew what happened on Titan, nobody knew how he got the Time Stone. Bruce, Wong and Thor, the people who knew Strange, said that he wouldn’t ever give the thing up, so everyone suspected blood had been spread on the planet. Once Tony and Nebula did come back, they said the others turned into dust and gave no further explanations. “He snapped, and I knew how he was going to react. I did the same. I screw up because I was a twenty-one-year-old kid again,” Steve tried not to think that Tony just put Bucky and Thanos on the same plane. I was a metaphor, a figure of speech. “And in front of me, there was the person who killed my parents. I came here as a friend, as your pal Sam told me to do and… What I’m trying to say is that we both had been jerks, and I can understand why you did what you did. This doesn’t make it easier to accept, but, whatever. We might not be friends again, but no bad blood, ok?”

And when Tony extended his hand, Steve shook it. He hoped that, with time, things could go back to normality, but, for now, he wasn’t going to complain. “No bad blood.” He said.

“See, doctor, Cap and I are grown-ups, don’t need a babysitter,” Stark said, walking past the Sorcerer and smiling at him. Steve had been around Tony long enough to recognize that smile.

--

Harley Keener backed off the moment Steve walked into the penthouse main hall, not that the Captain was surprised but the kid’s behaviour. The last time the two of them had been in the same room, the blond teen told him that, considering that Tony said they need to be nice which each other, it was better if their paths didn’t cross. He simply couldn’t be civil with “fake Cap”. Because, apparently, Carol Denver was now Captain Marvel and “the Real Cap”.

Whatever, Steve never met the kid before and considering that he was one of Tony’s kids he didn’t hope for him to understand how they managed things to work out. And he, anyway, was trying to speak with Peter who was speaking with the other teen for a moment before.

The point was that, even if he wasn’t Natasha, he noticed things. And he had to admit that Strange wasn’t as half an asshole as he appeared. They sort of getting along well. Like, not best pals, not even what Steve expected and wanted to, but in more than speaking terms. Of course, he was an ironic prick, but he was Tony’s friend or whatever, he couldn’t hope for nothing different. Anyway, he was sure not to be the only one to notice that there was something weird between Strange and Stark. And, maybe, involve a teenager wasn’t the best thing, but still.

Perhaps it was because he had never been there for a long time, but how could the other go through their constant banter-flirting every couple of days? He didn’t pretend to know so much about love stories, but they weren’t supposed to be excruciating for everyone around them.

Honestly, Steve spotted Strange looking at Tony a couple of times and if stares could strip clothes, Tony would have found himself naked in the middle of the training room more than once. But, apart from that, the Doctor was imperturbable. And Rogers had no idea about what he and Tony spoke about for hours. Every time he and Strange spoke, the Captain found himself with the greatest headache ever. Just as it happened when he spoke with Banner, to be honest.

Anyway, back on the matter in question, he was sure whatever there was between the two of them was more than what it met the eyes and wanted to be sure about that. “Peter,” He said, seating on the couch opposite to the one the teen was occupying. Differently from Harley, at least Parker tried to be civil with him. It didn’t exactly work, but he didn’t walk out any room Steve entered either so he was going to count it as a win. “Can I ask you something?”

“I suppose I can’t forbid you to speak, Mr Rogers,” Peter said, looking at the man in front of him for half a second before going back to his StarkPad. “So, yeah, shoot.”

“That thing between Tony and Strange,” He said, unsure about how to finish the sentence. Maybe ask a teenager wasn’t the best thing ever, but Steve found himself at short of allies and the only two people in the Compound who he would have asked told him to mind his own business. Steve regretted the times when his boyfriend and his friend used every possible occasion they had to argue. At least, one of them was always by his side. But nope, he had to plead Bucky and Sam to try and get along. His words, anyway, caused some sort of reaction in Peter because Parker lowered his tablet and looked at Steve, brown eyes wide with attention.

Good, I’m not seeing things, then. He thought, before continuing. “Do they know?”

“Believe me, Mr Rogers, the only people in the Compound that don’t know that Mr Stark loves Dr Strange are Mr Stark and Dr Strange. I thought they would figure out when they helped Dr Palmer and Dr Banner, but nope, I’m delusional.”

Steve tried to remember who Dr Palmer was, then the image of the redheaded woman he saw a couple of times with Bruce and Strange crossed his mind and he decided she must be the person Peter was speaking about. “Anyway, why did you want to know?”

“It’s just… I can recognize the weird way Tony has to flirt. Been there, both with Bruce and Nat. And I think he honestly deserves happiness.”

Peter’s glance was enough of an answer to that, but, again, it wasn’t like Steve could complain. He messed things up. It was his fault in the first place if Tony’s last couple of years before Thanos hadn’t been his happiest ones. But the kid had a good heart and he cared about Stark, which meant that he also was the best person to ask help to. And maybe he didn’t need to know about Bruce and Nat, but it wasn’t like it was something someone couldn’t find on Tony’s Wikipedia page.

“Yeah, he does. And Stephen does, too,” Peter said, and there was a glimpse of sadness in the deep of his dark eyes. “If that’s a way of yours to buy Tony’s pardon, I don’t think will work, but I’ll help you. Because I want them to be happy.”

Steve nodded, again, he knew things with Tony couldn’t go back to be the same because of that, but he didn’t care. They weren’t going to solve the problems from their past, but Steve could understand how it was to have someone who cared for him in his life, to have someone to speak with, and while he was sure either of the men was so found of opening up, they’d probably find their own way to do that. Again, apparently, it was clear in the sun, so it wasn’t like Steve was going to risk something, wasn’t him?

--

“Not exactly subtle,” Bucky said, looking at the decoration someone put around the main hall of the Wakandan Royal Palace. Apparently, Peter convinced Shuri and Nat to organize Valentine's Day party, of which T’Challa knew nothing, pretending it was an Avengers’ team bonding dinner. As in, everyone was pretty much obligated to take part in it. Bucky had a point or a hundred of those, but every other try they did (including hacking Friday's system to block the two of them in one of the lifts of the Tower, again, not the best of the ideas, but they were running out of those) ended in nothing, so it was time to call the big guns.

“And you aren’t even sure that Strange will show up,” Sharon added. Sam said she was in Wakanda because she was working on something with Everett Ross, but Bucky suspected that the real reason was that she and Wilson had started to date and Steve was more prone to believe in his boyfriend’s explanation. He gave his not-quite-Uncle seal of approval to the relationship, not that he said it loud, but still. If he’d dared to, well, Sharon could kick him in places he might need if he wanted to be a good boyfriend.

“You are just worried that if those two finally get together and even decided to take over the world, we will all have huge problems in not being enslaved,” Sam answered, and, yes, maybe that was a valid concern at which he hadn’t thought about enough. “I mean, I understand you, but still. Seeing Steve and Peter’s plans fail is funny enough to take the risk.”

Sharon rolled her eyes to the ceiling and walked away with Sam before he could say something else, leaving Steve alone with Bucky. “You know I’m always by your side, but what’s your plan, exactly?”

“It’s Peter’s idea,” Steve answered. “He thinks that if one of them gets drunk enough he will spill the bean, and we just have to been sure that this happens in front of the other.”

“You know that this is the dumbest plan I’ve ever heard of? And it’s coming from the man who fought guys three times his size, jumped without a parachute from an aeroplane and crashed another aeroplane in which he was when he could have said to anyone where he was going to do it,” Bucky’s smile softened a moment later. “You are lucky I love you, Steve Rogers, because that’s enough dumbness for me to walk away with another pretty super soldier.”

And Steve was glad when he felt Bucky’s metal arm around his waist, dragging him closer to his body so that he could place a kiss against his cheek. It took longer than he would have imagined, especially because Bucky had always been open about dating back in the 40s — and he confessed to Cap after a long time that he was just pretending, that showing himself with a different woman every night was the best way to hide the fact that he was attracted by men —, but now that his boyfriend was keen to public manifestations of affection Steve couldn’t help but smile like an idiot.

It took more than two hours before one between Stark and Strange showed up at the party, half dragged by the Cloak through a shining portal in the middle of the room. Strange was wearing what looked like a bodysuit, total black with details in charcoal grey and gold and white lines that crossed his chest and backs. Steve had never seen the Sorcerer wearing anything different from his robes or, on some rare occasions, casual clothes. And definitely, that suit wasn’t either.

The Doctor looked at his surroundings with a questioning glance, the Cloak disappeared a moment before he stepped into the room and everyone else around him acting like nothing was weird. It was supposed to be a team bonding event, not some kind of stupid party, and it was clear Strange didn’t appreciate the surprise.

This, at least, until Peter ran in front of him and started to speak about something that Steve couldn’t and didn’t want to hear. What was important was that the Sorcerer was that. Now the plan became more complicated, but, at least, part of it was accomplished.

--

Tony froze, the moment he walked past the doors of the main hall of the Wakandan Royal Palace. He had spent the entire day in the labs with Shuri — but for a fast lunch break because the princess seemed to be very much aware of the passing of time, differently from another teen Tony knew and kicked his ass out of her reign at half-past twelve — listening to her lessons about all the stuff he didn’t know about vibranium. Which were a lot, and the most important one was “do not use vibranium to create a giant frisbee with the only purpose to do propaganda” which was, well, legit.

She showed and kicked his ass in the process, how to use it to create little marvellously for which his father would have sold Tony himself, and also things that would have helped the population (in which Stark was more interested in) worldwide. She also agreed on a collaboration with Stark Industries and asked Tony about his nanoparticles. He had been more than happy to share that information with her, his mind yet on how to combine those and the Wakandan technology to create suits for every one of his teammates. And only when Shuri suggested that they could bring back the old Ultron's project and trying to recreate it, Tony decided to be interested in the mandatory dinner.

He had no idea if the princess understood the reason behind that, but was positive that she was smart enough to never mention Ultron again in front of him.

It was theoretically possible, that was true. He had better technology nowadays and with the help of both Bruce and Shuri he could recreate the entire thing without the part in which he decided to kill the superheroes. But the lives of the people who died because of that error of his were still hunting his sleep even more than Thanos.

He shook his head and decided that needed something to drink, which was why he went straight for the open bar once he reached the hall, only to stop himself mid-way, his dark eyes following infinite legs wrapped in dark fabric. Which eventually ended in a fine, fine ass. And whatever the thing Strange was wearing was, well, Tony appreciated it very much.

The bastard had gold details, and white stripes on the pitch black fabric of it placed there with the sole aim to have people looking at his ass, Tony was sure of that, his own suit had shining lights on that very same spot.

And well, maybe, just maybe, he had been very vocal with a certain other doctor and a US Army Colonel about how frustrating was the fact that Stephen couldn’t understand that they banter was Tony’s way to flirt with him (and the totally negligible fact that he found the Sorcerer attractive and smart, and dreamed about kissing those lips and having them on other parts of his body as well), but still. The only result had been that his two closest friends started to laugh.

And Tony was the one they should thank if they were very much taken with two women who could take over the world without crack a nail. Well, still, he could do without their help. Except that he couldn’t. Because he spoke with them something like six months before and nothing happened since then. Or better, nothing different from the same snark and flirtatious interaction he always had had with Strange.

“Stark,” Stephen’s voice reached him through his thought and, for a moment, Tony went back to be a thirteen years old kid in front of his first crush.

“Oh, nice outfit,” Was the only thing was able to say, and being him Tony Stark, well, he said it. Thank you so much brain which didn’t stop him in time. “I mean, it seems more durable than your temple robes.”

He flashed him his trademark smile but noticed how a pinker shade spread over Stephen’s cheeks. It lasted just one second, the time Tony needed to see that there was no opinionated piece of outerwear around Stephen’s shoulders. That was as weird as the fact that everyone around them seemed to be invested in dancing instead of, well, team bonding activity.

Also, there wasn’t the entire team there either. He spotted Bruce and Christine when he entered the room and if his attention hadn’t been catalysed by a certain Sorcerer in a very thigh bodysuit he would have understood that there was something weird. Stephen’s best-friend was a consultant for the Avengers, but she wasn’t forced to take part in the Commission for the Accords events. Rhodey and Carol were a more familiar sight, considering that both of them lived in the Compound and both were Avengers, but Ned who wall all but flirting with Shuri, well, technically he and MJ shouldn’t even know about Peter’s secret identity.

Thor and Loki weren’t around, probably hidden somewhere with their warrior friend and the Grand Master of something - Tony didn’t ask and nobody explained to him, he was just happy to know that Stephen didn’t have a relationship with neither of the Asgardians because the Sorcerer’s interactions with the gods gave him that kind of vibes. While for the others, T’Challa wasn’t trying to kill Ned only because he was giving heart eyes to Nat (who was even more beautiful than usual and was wearing typical Wakandan clothes), Steve and Bucky were very much busy in trying to occupy the very same space and Wilson was trying to get killed by Sharon. Tony didn’t saw Wanda and Vision yet, but probably they were together and - and then something hit him.

Strong, in the middle of his brain: it was fucking Valentine's Day!

And he was behaving like a crazy in front of the man he had a crush on. Fucking great! Which was why he smiled when Peter called him. “Yeah, Pete?” He asked, turning completely to face the kid in front of him.

“The ice is finished and I was wondering if you could go and take some, like, King T’Challa is busy and…” Tony nodded. It wasn’t like he knew where they kept ice (also, they probably had butlers for that, but Tony wasn’t going to point it out now), but at least he would have enough time to think about the fact of being cornered during Valentine's Day party.

“Yeah, I’m going,” He said and walked toward one of the hallways. The last thing he expected for, though, was to see a red flash of something in front of him and, a moment later, to hear Stephen’s voice.

“I’ll help you,” He said. “It’s not like there’s something more I can do there anyway.”

Yeah, and maybe he could use his magic mumbo-jumbo to lead them to where ice was kept. What Tony didn’t notice, though, were Peter and Steve following them down the hallway.

--

“Are you sure they won’t freeze to death?” Peter asked, looking at the door they just locked. Steve’s cerulean eyes ran on T’Challa by his side. The King of Wakanda nodded.

“They just entered the first room they found, this is a conference room,” He explained. “And, anyway, Strange can always portal them outside. Now, do you want to look at the camera feeds, considering that we are closing two adults in a room so that they could speak? That I don’t think will work, but still.”

“And, anyway, are you telling me that I should have closed Bucky and you in a freezing room so that you would have kissed without forcing me to hear you pining over him?” Nat asked, looking deadly serious at Steve. Who had, at least, the decency to blush. “Now, why don’t we just project the feed in the main hall?”

T’Challa’s wicked smile matched his fiancé’s.

--

“What’s wrong with you?” Stephen asked again, looking at the Cloak which was blocking them to reach the door and find another room. In that one there wasn’t ice, apparently. The Cloak didn’t move, and it wasn’t like there was something Strange could do but stare at it.

“I can try to shoot at…” Tony wasn’t really serious, but the glance Stephen threw at him was enough to make him never finish that sentence. And the fact that he was the only person capable of doing that said a lot about the one Supreme Sorcerer. “Ok, bad idea. I was joking, by the way.”

“I know,” Stephen said, deciding to ignore the Cloak for the time being. “I’m just exhausted and kind of protective with it. The Cloak saved my life more than once.”

Tony nodded, Stephen wasn’t giving any intonation to his words, those were simply facts. Though he couldn’t help a smile to form on his lips. “It’s fine. Do you know something we can do to make it move, though?”

Stephen looked at the relic which decided it was a good time to stay perfectly still while floating in front of the door. They both know that if they try to move toward the exit it would wrap around them, pushing them back. The point was why it was behaving like that. “Not really. It does what it wants to.”

“Crazy clothes,” Tony said, glaring at it. “It makes me questioning if all the Artificial Intelligence thing I’m trying to achieve is for the best. What if I give Fri a body and then she starts to act like a little bitch?”

“She already is,” Stephen said, and it was barely a whisper, but Tony could hear him. “But she probably took after her creator so she can’t be blamed.”

Tony smiled, looking at him. And ok, that suit was illegal. Whoever created it (which was still a huge question mark in his mind) should have been sued for crimes against decency, if something like that existed. Nobody could give something so provoking to a man like Strange. A man who was able to make loose robes sexy on top of everything.

“Do you like what you see?” Stephen’s low voice reached him, and Tony should really stop to stare at the Sorcerer, apparently.

“You can’t just walk in there wearing this and pretend people won’t look. That thing is unfair,” He decided to be honest, at least with himself. Again, it wasn’t like there was something different he could do.

--

“Everyone goes home; I won!” Shuri said, her dark eyes focused on the holographic image of the two of them speaking. Steve and Peter shared a confused expression for a moment, looking at each other before the princess continued: “Do you really think you are the only one tired of those two acting like teenagers around each other? The difference between you and me is that I didn’t even need to kidnap them.”

And ok, maybe Steve had to admit that his and Peter’s plans were based on the fact that if you close them somewhere they would eventually speak to each other, which resulted in nothing all the previous times. But, at least, they tried.

“And how should this be your victory? We closed them in the room.”

“You shouldn’t be proud of that, Steve,” Carol said, smiling, but it was clear that she was more curious about Shuri’s answer than everything else.

“Who do you think created Strange’s suit? He asked me something practical, and I’m pretty sure it is.”

“Am I the only one who doesn’t want to know how far practical goes?” Peter asked, focusing back on Tony and Stephen on the screen in front of them. They were still speaking, and seriously, for being friends it seemed like they didn’t speak for ages. “I mean, we are speaking about my mentor and a man I really appreciate and look after, I’d really like to think they will speak with their clothes on all the time, ok?”

“Yeah, Pete, whatever,” MJ said, and, yup, Parker totally blushed at that.

The Cloak let them reach the door only after both of them admitted that they had feelings for each other. It was a long and excruciating process considering that none of them really wanted to ruin their friendship, but, in the end, they managed to speak also about that.

“We can try and see how this works, we don’t have to rush things or something,” Stephen said, a soft smile on his lips, content with Tony squeezing his hand a moment later. Neither of them was ready for a relationship different from a very close friendship. Their lives and their pasts having proved that they weren’t ready for romantic stuff. But knowing what they felt for each other was enough, for now.

Tony nodded, a more relaxed smile while he let his eyes ran on Stephen’s arm, stretched between them. “Thank you. For understanding and, well, thank you.”

Stephen shook his head before walking pass the Cloak, which decided that it was enough to let them go. The door, though, seemed to be of a completely different opinion, considering that it didn’t move once Tony tried to open it. A moment later, they heard someone running at the other side of it.

But, at that moment, something different starting to emerge in Tony’s mind. “Wait! That’s Rogers and the kid’s doing.”

Stephen’s eyes looked questioning for half a second, then he seemed to realize. “It’s the same as the elevator and the London situation? And all the other times we found ourselves looked in some place”

Tony nodded and a soft laugh started to rise on his lips. “Yeah, I’m going to kill them.”

“I have a better idea,” Stephen said, moving his hand to open a portal in the middle of the room. “And, honestly, I’m not even sure that’s their doing, but we should thank them.”

Tony said nothing but crossed the Portal still holding Stephen’s hand, and that was good. Yeah, he should probably thank the two of them. Even if it was sad that him, Tony Stark, a former playboy, needed the help of a teen and a hundred-years-old man with his love life.

Baby, You Don’t Gotta Fight - 8

Summary:  Dr. Christine Palmer is just living her life, content in her job as a trauma surgeon and happily moonlighting as Peter Parker's general physician at her old friend Stephen's request.

One evening as she finishes up examining Peter, she encounters the force of nature that's Sharon Carter, who seems to have a reckless streak a mile wide.

She's not sure what to make of the spy-turned-Avenger, but she can tell Sharon's hurting, and Christine's healing nature won't be ignored.

<<<>>>

Chapter 8

<<<>>>

Eight times in two weeks.

She'd been to that damned pub and eaten the Lucky 10-3 with a side of parmesan truffle fries eight times in two weeks. She'd fairly gorged herself on that delicious, sinfully juicy burger with the garlic aioli and bacon jam. On one of the visits she'd asked them to add a fried egg and it nearly sent her to a state of bliss.

Her out-of-character eating habits meant she'd been to a goddamned hot yoga class every day she wasn't scheduled for doubles at MetroGen. She'd even gone to the gym in her building and used the elliptical machine. Which, gross.

It was all Sharon's fault.

Except for the fact that it wasn't.

It was hers.

Damn it all, it was her own damn fault.

Her box in the department's mail center held a fancy black envelope. There was some heft to it, along with pretentious looping golden writing. Experience told her what to expect.

The East Coast Surgical Society humbly requests…

Christine rolled her eyes. Another gala. Of course.

She read through the rest of the invite, did a benefit-risk analysis in her head of if it was worth it to even bother attending or just sending in a small donation. Galas were always boring and full of equally boring people. In the end, it was the highlighting of a new scholarship for assisting medical students who had been victims of the Blip in getting back into medical school.

How could she, in good conscience, say no to that?

She tucked the envelope in her bag and looking at her watch, decided she could go for a visit to a nearby Thai place before making her lonely way home.

“Doc?”

She whirled around. James Barnes leaned against one of the pillars holding up the giant port over the main public entrance to MetroGen.

She smiled, puzzled. “Can I help you, Sergeant?”

“Please, call me James or Bucky,” he said, striding over to join her. “I happened to be in the area and figured I’d check in, see how you’re doing.”

“Oh?” she asked, eyebrows raised as they started walking towards the nearest subway entrance. “Am I supposed to be in some kind of trouble?”

“No,” he said. "But it’s not every day an Avenger comes through your ER."

Ah. She understood.

“I’ve yet to have an Avenger come through my ER,” she said, voice deliberate. “I just assumed you were there supporting a friend. Nothing extraordinary about it, to say nothing of the privacy laws I and my colleagues are bound by.”

“That’s good to hear,” he said. “She’s doing well, since you’re not going to ask.”

She smiled and nodded. “That’s great. I’m glad, really.” She was glad.

“Heading home for the day?” he asked, following her down the steps.

“I thought I’d grab dinner first. There's a restaurant near my place I’m a frequent flier at.”

He swiped his card after hers. “Mind if I join you?”

She studied him. He was a tall man and with his neatly cropped hair, very handsome. His eyes seemed to see more than most would be comfortable knowing and even with the glove, the power that his arm seemed to lend to how he carried himself was evident.

“Is it really a question?” she finally asked.

He smiled, genuinely. “Yeah, I ain’t looking to cause trouble.”

“You’re buying,” she assented.

With a laugh, he stepped into the railcar after her.

He ordered in actual Thai. She didn't bother pretending to not be impressed, especially when the older man taking their orders smiled so wide she half-expected a sun beam to emit from his mouth. Her order was not in Thai, though she always made a habit of trying to pronounce the dishes correctly.

“Any other languages you speak?” she asked as she squeezed the lime wedge into her water.

James smiled ruefully. “It's less that I speak them and more that I know them. I'm not sure how all of the stuff they shoved in my brain got there, but it's useful sometimes.”

“I'm both fascinated and horrified,” she admitted. If she'd gone with a neurology specialty, she'd probably have wanted to do a paper on James and his unique mental condition.

“At least you're honest about it.” He did nothing with his own water, save for stirring the straw around. "Not many people are."

“I'm know you didn't drop in just to invite yourself to my dinner," she finally said. "Is everything okay?"

He focused his attention on her, as if everyone and every thing in the cozy little restaurant was miles away. She didn't flinch, didn't shift in discomfort. She knew the game well, just from a different sort of arena.

"What about your reaction to her scared you?"

Okay, that she hadn't expected. Damn.

"Is that what you think happened?"

The side of his mouth quirked up in a smirk. "I know that's what happened. And so do you, or you would have answered the question."

"I really don't like you," she muttered.

James let out a short laugh, eyes twinkling. "Yes, you do."

She stewed in annoyance until their food was brought out and then proceeded to stab at a piece of the crying tiger steak with more viciousness than it deserved. Once she'd eaten a few bites of the steak and the sticky rice, she settled. At least the food was always delicious.

Meanwhile, James seemed wholly unconcerned as he added a mix of chili oil and peanut sauce to his phat thai.

"I've never liked uncertainty," she finally said. "Even knowing that she will bring nothing but uncertainty, I want that kind of rush."

"Present tense," he murmured.

"Yes, present tense." The admission was both a relief and a sentence. "I want her."

James absorbed that information. "She's not easy, and I don't mean that in the hopping into bed sense."

"Oh, I've figured that much out by myself," Christine said.

"Are you going to call her?" he asked.

"I doubt she'd even take my call," she said. "And anyways, she's still my patient."

"Then make her not your patient," James suggested. "You haven't seen Sharon Carter as a patient at either your hospital or the clinic you volunteer at. You've treated two different women and there's no paper trail to suggest it's her. Just hand her treatment off to someone else."

"You say it like it's simple," she argued, food forgotten.

"Because it is simple," James said, taking a bite of his noodles. He chewed and then swallowed. "You either want to take a chance on a relationship with Sharon or you don't. And even if you don't, you might as well stop trying to be her doctor, because all it's going to do is hurt her. I think she's been hurt enough."

"I don't want to hurt her," she said. "That's the last thing I want to do."

When they finished dinner, she tried not to be alarmed by James's offer to walk her home. His smile was probably meant to be reassuring, but it was missing the mark by a degree or two. Still, she wouldn't gain anything by saying no, considering how dangerous the man was.

"Listen Doc, I like you," he said when they stood in front of her building. "So I'm going to help you out. Sharon likes to go watch amateur baseball and softball in Central Park when she wants to do some thinking. You might find her there some afternoon."

"I'll keep that in mind."

Christine wasn't much for sports, though she'd been known to attend a Rangers or Mets game on occasion. She also used her disinclination for the great outdoors to avoid spending long stretches of time in Central Park. But she found herself wandering around near the Hecksher Ballfields one Tuesday afternoon. She spotted Sharon sitting at the bleachers and watching a softball game.

"Who's winning?" she asked, sitting next to her.

"Definitely the finance team," Sharon answered. "Engineering can't seem to hit off of the pitcher."

"Did you play?"

Sharon watched the game, smirking when the pitcher struck out the first batter of the inning with a ball that looked as if it would be out of range but then curved back in.

"I never got the chance. My free time was used for martial arts, trips to the shooting range, and foreign language lessons." She let out a low whistle when the next batter hit a double. "I think I would have liked it, though. Maybe it would have made me a better team player."

"My parents insisted I pick a sport while I was growing up. I finally chose swimming because I hate running and getting dirty," Christine confided. "I could have gone to college on a scholarship for swimming but I was done."

A single.

"What events did you swim?" Sharon asked.

"Hundred yard backstroke and backstroke in the medley relay. The coaches also signed me up to dive one time, but all it took was seeing another diver hit their head on the board and I went "nope!" I just did cannonballs and to this day I have the school record for lowest diving scores."

Sharon laughed. "Not the sporty type?"

The latest batter walked and the bases were loaded.

"Any and all exercise I do is under protest," she said. "Any my yoga instructor knows that."

The next batter struck out.

"So, you're not into sports and particularly outdoorsy. What brings you here of all places?"

"I wanted to see you."

Sharon was silent as the batter stepped up to the plate. Ball one. "Let me guess, Barnes?"

"Yes." There wasn't any point in denying it.

Strike one.

"That man is the biggest pain in my ass," Sharon said.

"Well, he helped me find you so I can't really agree."

"You found me. Now what?"

The batter swung, connected with the ball, and it went flying up and over towards them. Christine didn't have a chance to react before Sharon pushed her down against the foot section of the bleachers. She looked up to see that Sharon had one arm extended, and amazingly, that her hand held the foul ball.

"Are you okay?" Sharon asked. She tossed the ball over the fence to the nearest team's coach and helped her up.

"Yeah," Christine said, voice shaky.

"Good."

"How did you catch that bare-handed?" Christine asked, taking Sharon's hand in her own and checking for fractures. "And how are you not screaming in pain?"

Sharon shrugged. "My time on the run left me with good reflexes. And this is far from the worst pain I've felt in my life."

How did Sharon just brush off pain like it was nothing? The only person Christine knew who could do the same was Peter, but he was enhanced with that spider-healing of his, not to mention he had Stephen, who was almost obsessive about ensuring Peter's health and safety. Sharon, to her knowledge, was simply a dangerously trained spy of a human.

"I would feel a lot better if we put some ice on this," she said.

Sharon eyed her suspiciously. "Just the ice?"

"And four ibuprofen," Christine added.

"Two," Sharon countered.

"Done. Come on, I have a first-aid kit with instant cold packs back at my apartment."

"Your goal was actually two, wasn't it?"

Christine simply smiled. "I'll never tell."

"This isn't going to keep happening," Christine said as she wrapped up Sharon's hand. She'd had Sharon sitting on the couch so it could be iced on and off. Every switch-up she checked that circulation and sensation were good. "The whole being your doctor thing. If you're under an alias, that's one thing. But as Sharon? I can't. Not at my hospital. You'll have to see someone else."

"Okay?" Sharon asked, confusion clear on her face.

"I can't be accused of a breach of ethics if you're not officially my patient."

"And what exactly would the breach of ethics be?" Sharon asked.

She was really going to make Christine spell it out. Well, that was fair enough.

"I'm planning on starting with asking you to be my date to the EC Surgical Society gala on Friday evening. Then, if that goes well, I'd like to bring you back here and spend the rest of the night kissing you senseless."

Sharon nodded. "What changed?"

Christine let out a breath. "I have this thing about control," she said. "And you... you can't be controlled. You're reckless and seem to have zero regard for your life and you're capable of things that terrify me. But I feel more alive when I'm around you than I've ever felt outside of the operating room. You make me want throw away caution and I'm tired of trying to talk myself out of it. So, if you'll let me, I'd like to give this whole thing between us a shot."

There it was. Out in the open. And Sharon was just studying her with dark brown eyes that betrayed nothing.

"I'll let you on one condition," Sharon finally said.

"Which is?"

"You go ahead and kiss me senseless now."

With a laugh, she pushed Sharon back into the couch and did just that.
