You Know Who I Am - Tony Stark X reader

Chapter 13

Bucky convinced you to leave your pillow and quilt fortress and come downstairs to the lounge with him. The other avengers wanted to apologise to you, and he felt it would do you good.

After talking to everyone for a while, the group dispersed. Neither Tony or pepper hadn't been there, which made your mind wander. Was Bucky telling the truth when he'd said they were breaking up because of you?

You sat in the lounge with Bucky, Steve, Clint, Bruce and Thor.
It amazed you how no one realised Steve and Bucky were together, and you laughed to yourself over how well you'd managed to keep it a secret.
Everyone was watching TV, but you'd noticed Bucky hadn't been paying the slightest bit of attention. Instead, he'd been talking to Steve, who obviously knew nothing he was saying, because he was speaking in Russian.

You tried not to listen to what he was saying but you couldn't help it. Eventually you had to speak up.
You turned to Bucky and in Russian you said to him " I bet you didn't know I could speak Russian" before laughing slightly.

Bucky went bright red, and Steve looked from Bucky to you, then back again.
By this time, the other three had drawn their attention away from the tv and were looking at whatever was going on.

"Where the hell is Nat when you need her ?!?" Clint laughed before yelling "NATASHA !!! GET IN HERE !!!"

Bucky was wide eyed and in shock. You were laughing so much that your stomach hurt. When Natasha entered the room, you were still laughing. She looked at Clint, Bucky then you, and turned around and left.

You got up off the sofa, and Bucky's gaze followed you. You left the room, still laughing, and headed to the kitchen. You finally calmed yourself down, and began looking through the fridge. You hadn't realised how hungry you were, as you hadn't eaten very much when you'd been in your room.

Just as you shut the fridge door, Steve approached you. Just the sight of him reminded you of Bucky's face, and you almost started laughing again, but you managed to keep it together.

"What was all that ?" He said, his face half confused, half embarrassed.

You strolled over to the cupboards and picked up a box of pop tarts.
"Bucky was talking in Russian" you said, going and sitting on one of the barstools.

"Yeah, I get that..." he said, slightly exasperated.

"... and I simply said to him 'I bet you didn't know I could speak Russian"

Steve looked at you in shock "... you speak Russian ?!?"

You took a bite from one of the pop tarts and nodded, still thinking about Bucky's reaction.
"Tell me what he said" Steve blurted out. You took another bite from your pop tart and looked up at him. The fact he's ninety-something years old doesn't mean he can't do the biggest puppy eyes ever.

"He didn't say anything worth getting embarrassed over," you began, trying to make Steve feel less embarrassed. "There were a lot of compliments about you. There was something about Peggy, and the two of you flirting... I don't think he liked it very much. There was stuff about the 1940's, before you had the serum, It made me tear up actually, and after the serum, before 'he fell'...and a lot of cursing hydra."

Steve was still stood, wishing he knew how to speak or understand Russian.

You got another pop tart from the box and took a bite. "He said he loved you a few times... and I think that was all h-" before you could finish, Steve bolted out of the room.

You finished the pop tart you were eating, then picked up the box and headed back to the lounge.

Bucky and Steve were both gone and everyone else was still fixed on the tv. You threw the box of pop tarts to Thor, which startled him. When he saw what it was he smiled at you, then started devouring them.

"Hey Bruce, do you know where Tony is ?" You asked

"Yeah, he's in his bedroom" Bruce replied, without looking up from the screen.

You chuckled and thanked him, before heading up to Tony's room. On your way there you were thinking about what Bucky said.
*"It may or may not be because Tony confessed he has feelings for you."*

You knocked on Tony's door, and you heard him call you in. You went inside and shut the door behind you. Natasha was there too and they seemed to be in mid conversation about pepper.

"Hey (Y/N)" Natasha said, after she finished talking to Tony.
"Hey Natasha" you replied, smiling back at her, before turning to face Tony, who looked like he hadn't slept for days.

"Tony... is it true?" You said, your voice shaky. If he confessed what Bucky told you he had, you thought you'd probably end up on the floor in a pool of emotions and feels.

"You're gonna have to be a bit more specific" he said sarcastically, but it was obvious he knew what you were on about, and was just trying to avoid the subject. You gave Tony a look and he sighed.

"Yeah, its true... and me and Pepper have broken up" he began "... but I don't know how I feel; with everything that's happened recently, I feel a bit flustered... I need some time to think things through"

You nodded. Hearing that Tony and Pepper had split shouldn't make you feel happy but it did. But seeing Tony in the state he was in made you feel really bad, like it was your fault... which you suppose it was.

You didn't know how to reply. You didn't want to make things worse, but you knew you had to say something.

You finally spoke up "That's fine Tony, just remember...tempus neminem manet"

Tony gave you a weird look and then looked at Natasha. You headed towards the door, and as you were leaving you heard her.
"It's Latin... 'time waits for no one'."
