Avengers: The Hunted (Avengers × Reader)

38- Drunk

Steve and Tony marched in yelling and shouting at eachother. The rest of the team follow up clearly tired of this ever lasting argument.

"What's going on?"

"Well Y/N, thanks to America's ass over hear, we all got our ass kicked. So called great leader you are" he hisses.

"Well maybe if you actually listened to my directions properly rather than running off to flirt with those women, You wouldn't have been so drunk that you could have followed orders!"

"What the hell are you talking about, I didn't run over to no 'women', they were Hydra agents who tRiCkeD me and I... I can't remember the rest. Jus- just accept the fact that you were wrong for once Rogers." Tony slurs "and I'm not drunk".

Clint grabs his arm and attempting to drag him to his room to lay it off. "Get your hands off of me Barton, do you know who I am?"

"Yeah, you're drunk." Your brother says bluntly

He resists then finally leaves accepting defeat.

When they leave, Steve explains what happened although it seemed like Nat and Bruce were barely in the picture. They had gone to hunt down some Hydra agents you and Bruce had tracked down earlier. The agents had tried threatening them with hostages, but despite the adversities this caused, they were able to save them.

Taking the agents back to the quinjet, Steve asked Tony if he could stay with them until they manage to help all the hostages to safety. Tony agreed but later left the captured by themselves to meet some "fans" outside, despite it being abnormal for the average fans to be lurking around an abandoned village. The "fans" were some more Hydra agents who managed to tackle Tony long enough to release their comrades.

You go up to check on Tony who was still drinking. Attempting to stop him he shoves you back "there's no point Y/N, it's me. I'm the problem its me. The team, the world, everybody agrees. I'm so fucked up even Pepper left, Pepper!. I told the love of my life that I was in lo- you know what forget it." he downs another bottle "FUCK!" he yells now throwing it full force across the room.

The sound of the bottle smashing makes you jump and frightened by his sudden aggression. In desperate attempt to calm your friend down you grab his hands and squeeze them but he pushes you away again.

"Tony look at me, you're gonna be alright, okay. Tony stop, you need to stop right now you're hurting everyone like this!"

He laughs "see, I haven't changed. I'm still the same old bastard I used to be. And look now, I'm having a marvellous time ruining everything"

He grabs a lamp and throws it to the floor almost getting an electric shock, he punches his fist into the wall. His hand now gushing with blood, he grabs everything from the cabinet and launched them across the room with more glass shattering, about to hit you.

"Y/N!" Steve runs in, grabbing you into a tight hold, protecting you from being hit by whatever Tony was now tossing. "STARK I SWEAR TO GOD-!" He yells at the top of his lungs as the sound of broken glass competes in volume.

"Cap please no, not right now! Can't you see what he's going through, you can't blame him. Leave, just leave right now. Take Y/N, I'll handle this" Bruce says, coming from behind Steve, pushing him away from Tony before he did anything.

Steve pulls you out of the room, unable to speak you try catching your breath.

"Hey, hey sweetheart" he panic whispers, cupping your now pale face in his hands "it's okay, we're gonna help him alright. Don't worry we're gonna save him and everything will be okay." He says using his thumb to gently wipe away your tears.

You place your hand onto his arm and burry your forehead into the comfort of his chest. There he quickly wraps his arms around your head and waist, so to succour you. Kissing the top of your head and rubbing your arm, Steve holds you in his embrace as long as you needed, as long as he needed.
