Tony Stark x Reader - Sleep

Short but sweet
REQUESTED

Y/N's P.O.V.

It had been a long day for everyone.
Steve had a whole day of training booked in for the Avengers and none of us were particularly happy about it.
With a 6am start, we were running until 7am, we stopped for a quick breakfast, before doing team building exercises until lunch. It was hell, and that was just the morning. All afternoon we were working on our own personal abilities and it wasn't too bad until Wanda accidentally hit me with her magic during a sparing session.
I flew back into Tony, knocking us both down. He had his tools out and was working on his suit in the sun and let me tell you, slicing your arm open on a broken piece of an Iron suit, then having said suit fall on top of you and a grumpy billionaire was not fun. The suit was a lot heavier than it looked.
Thanks to my healing magic we were fine, but healing myself was always draining because it took longer and I just wanted to go to sleep, but when I found myself in bed, I was too tired to actually fall sleep.

"What are you doing up?" A tired voice asked and I looked up to see Tony with a bottle of water in his hands.

"I could ask you the same question." I muttered in response.
He moved to leave and for some reason, I found myself wanting him to stay.
"I'm sorry about earlier, I should have been more careful."

"Don't worry about it." Tony sighed, turning back to face me.
"How's your arm?" His eyes trailed down to the bandage on my forearm and I frowned.

"Healing slowly." I ran my fingers over the bandages.
"It would heal a lot faster if I could get some sleep." Tony laughed weakly at that, nodding his head. I leaned forward, picking up my drink as Tony moved to sit next to me on the couch.

"Movie?" He suggested and I shrugged. I let Tony pick and before I knew it, we were leaning against each other and I had summoned a blanket for the two of us to share.
Tony didn't seem to mind our closeness and I was happy just to relax after everything that had happened.
About halfway into the movie, I noticed that my friend's breathing had evened out and he had fallen asleep against me. I shifted slightly, knowing that if he stayed in the position he was in, he'd wake up sore and cranky. Using my magic, I summoned the remote into my hand and turned the TV down, not wanting anything to disturb Tony's sleep.
I knew that Tony didn't sleep much, spending almost every night in his lab. He needed the rest and I knew that, if I woke him to go to bed, he wouldn't sleep again.
So I let him sleep and soon enough, I realised my own eyes were getting heavy.
