your first 'date'

So this is part 2 out of the three parts for my first few preferences. ( part 1 being he first sees you, part 2 being the not actual date, and part 3 being the actual first date you two go on! ). These will follow the same order the first preference does...
And to be wonderfully noted!! this chapter should be 100% gender neutral!!

Steve Rogers :

Y/n had to wait for Steve to call them first ( it took him a little while to figure out the whole 'mobile calling' thing ). They were ecstatic when he finally did, although the call sounded muffled through their phone ( which led to their mind thinking up all sorts of questions ). The best part was that he asked them if they wanted to meet up at a small cafe ( they agreed, very quickly ). They knew exactly where it was, still y/n google mapped it to make sure so they wouldn't be late.

Y/n took off of work early the next day, rushed to their apartment and changed, and ran out the door to bolt to the cafe. Despite leaving half an hour early y/n still arrived later than their scheduled time due to someone stopping them at a stand ( the scarfs and necklaces the vender had were adorable- ). Cursing their-self in their head as they dashed off for getting so distracted, again. Steve had gotten there twenty minutes early and had already buzzed through a coffee when y/n got to Don't Want a Latte But My Cafe.

"I'm so sorry, Steve, have you been waiting long?"
"No, no, I haven't been here long."
    
Their worried smile was enough to convince himself to lie about his wait. But in all complete honesty, seeing y/n was worth it.

The two spent the entire afternoon talking, laughing, and drinking far too much coffee. Y/n found their-self explaining their dreams and hopes in more detail than they thought Steve would even want to hear. Only Steve saw the light in y/n's eyes, the movement of their hands, the way their eyes crinkled as they laughed. Then suddenly, he was telling y/n everything and he means everything. The forties, the war, the serum, James 'Bucky' Barnes, his shield, SHIELD, Hydra, and the cold, freezing depth of the sea as he crashed the plane to save New York. . .

From the final confession of his past dripping off his lips his eyes closed heavily. Y/n frozen in a different kind of shock than they had ever experienced in their life, still y/n took his trembling hands massaging gentle circles into his calloused palms. Steve opened his eyes to kind, compassionate eyes that couldn't even begin to comprehend everything he hasn't said yet nor what he'll face some day soon.

"Okay. . . That's a lot, but it's fine. Now you have someone who's really going to help you through it, there is no way you can get rid of me now. As, as your, um, friend of course."

A light blush grew in their cheeks at their statement, at the truth. Well most of the truth. . .

haha I really like this one!! also do remember, this preference, like most of the others, happen before avengers or huge events in each character's life!!

Tony Stark :

Y/n stares upwards at the private jet. Stark Industries, sprawling across the side in large red, block lettering. Anxiety crawls up their spine as y/n releases a shuddering breath, gripping the railing of the removable staircase.

Working under Pepper has almost labeled them as number three in the chain of command at Stark Industries. Which also means that y/n has to be Pepper in some situations, and y/n can not find a brighter side to this specific situation. Mr. Stark and Miss Potts have never fully gotten along, but they haven't really fought or been unable to stand the other either. But with the latest thing that Ton-Mr. Stark had pulled as Iron Man and all of the trouble with it, Pepper had taken a 'hiatus' of sorts. Leaving y/n to do everything that Stark is already too laid back to do for himself.
