The adoption process was long and stressful, but they managed to adopt a two-year-old baby whom they loved from the first moment they held him in their arms. When they arrived at Stark Tower with her, everyone was amazed.

Steve gazed down at the sleeping infant. Peter had a pudgy pink baby face and an adorable little button nose. His head was lightly covered with soft brown halooking up from Peter, Steve turned to his husband. "Look at him," Steve breathed. "He's beautiful." Finally Steve tore his gaze from the baby to look at his husband "ours." Tony took a cautious step closer to his lover and rested their foreheads together. Both their eye's fall to the now wriggling infant between them.The baby's eyes fluttered open and Tony starts to fear that the child will start crying. Instead Peter simply looks up. His large hazel eyes gaze at them in amazopens and closes pointlessly. That was when Tony was finally able to crack a smile as the warm feeling in his chest over whelmed him. The thought, the imageholding a baby, their baby, it was both terrifying and the most beautiful thing Tony had ever seen. For no real reason, Tony found himself chuckling a little. Thisilently vowed to be the best father he could be and to protect this little guy from anything. 

Steve and Tony finally brought Peter home to the Avengers Tower. Steve carried him in and he and Tony went to the nursery and gently placed the sleeping infnew crib. They paused a moment to watch the gentle rise and fall of the baby's chest as he slumbers. Taking each other by the hand, the two husbands slowlyroom."Jarvis," Tony called out to the AI once they were both out of Peter's room. "I want to know everything that goes on in that room. Everything. If he so much ahear about it."Steve and Tony went into the living room and sat down upon the couch. Steve rapped his  arm around Tony. "It all seems so surreal," said the captain" perfect.""Don't celebrate too soon," warned Tony. "I hear babies tend to wear people out. Not to mention what it will do to our sex life—""Tony!" scolded Steve. "Don't ruin the moment.""I'm just sayin'. If you think it's all so perfect then I'll let you change the first diaper, captain," replied Tony, snickering a bit.Steve sighed. "It's just that... well, it's not just the two of us anymore. I love you Tony but now we can share our love with Peter. We're no longer just a couple"Yeah," said Tony. "From superhusbands to superfamily. You think Peter might wanna continue into the family business?" joked Tony.Steve's eyes widened at bit at those words. "Not on your life! There is no way I'm gonna let our baby into any kind of danger.""Relax, hon. I was just kidding," said Tony, holding his hands up in surrender. Tony then stared at the far wall lost in thought. "Of course we'll protect him from" Steve pulled Tony closer to him, pressing their bodies against one another on the couch. Tony rested his head on the supersoldier's shoulder. They passed thesilence but between them the love could be felt. The deep-rooted love for one another and the newfound love for their child.A crying sound could be heard from the direction of Peter's room and Jarvis pulled up a holographic screen in front of them showing a now fully awake baby Pete around in his blankets. "Sir, young master Peter is awake," informed Jarvis."Gee, ya think?" said Tony, rolling his eyes.Steve hurried over to the nursery with Tony right behind him. Steve reached into the crib and lifted Peter out. Peter was now wailing and shifting around whichSteve to hold him securely. He put the young baby to his chest and tried to calm him by rubbing gentle circles on his back. "Shhhh, It's Okay. You're okay." Papcontinued bawling. "What do you think is wrong with him?" Steve asked Tony.Jarvis answered. "Sirs," came the AI's automated voice. "My scans show that young master Peter is in need of a change in diapers.""I'll let you take care of that," said Tony. "I told you that you could have first dibs.""Tony, don't you dare leave me," warned Steve as he walked over to the changing table."I won't. Someone has to make sure you're doing it right," replied Tony.Steve placed the squirming Peter onto the table. "Undo the latches. They're right there," said Tony."I know where they are." snapped Steve.Tony began to take on a sort of backseat driver position only it was more like a background diaper changer. Steve knew what to do. He had studied for this but thought he new better. "Don't wipe. Dab.""That's what I'm doing. Maybe you'd like to take over.""No thanks." That seemed to shut him up.In the end they we're successful and Steve decided to also change Peter out of the onesie he was already wearing and into a brand new red one they had bougth putting little dark blue socks on him Steve lifted him off the changing table and cradled him in his arms. "There, now. I bet that feels better," cooed Steve. Peter looked at Steve with wonder in his eyes and let out a satisfied little squeal and started to reach for the captain's face. "Let's go play with him," Steve said to Tony, offered hand for the  baby to grab.
