REQUEST:

"These are so cute and just lovely. Could I request something? Perhaps a pure fluff one, I just love fluff a lot ha-ha. Uh, It's Tony's birthday and Steve wants to get him something really special but he can't think of anything so he settles on the typical flowers or chocolate thing but then thinks Tony's going to hate it but in the end he kisses him and it gets really cute because Tony gets emotional that Steve remembered his birthday unlike everyone else and I guess just work from that if you want to add anything extra." - CastieIsButt 

I like the cuteness at the end, I hope you enjoy it! x

Cold air nipped at Steve's exposed skin as he ran from his steamy bathroom to his cabinet of drawers, dropping his towel he quickly shrugged on a fresh pair of boxers and khakis before pulling through his numerous jumpers before deciding on a light grey wool knit one that accentuated his shoulders and bulging biceps (according to Tony anyway).

He breezed down to the communal kitchen in the Avengers Tower and greeted the rest of the team with a blinding smile before accepting the hot chocolate and muffin that Phil pushed his way. "What's got you so happy?" Tony growled looking at Steve over his steaming mug of coffee that spread its swirling aroma around the kitchen.

"Nothing," Steve smirked at him and prodded Tony's leg under the table with his foot, laughing under his breath as Tony tried not to smile at the contact but failed as he quickly tried to hide the smile that perked up the edges of his mouth as he took another gulp of coffee.

"What!?" Tony huffed at Steve as he looked up and saw that Steve was indeed still studying him with rapt attention. "I just wanted to ask whether you were doing anything tonight," Steve asked, ignoring Clint's choke next to him and the shaking of his shoulders as Phil banged on his back trying to dislodge the muffin that he'd inhaled.

Tony looked at him with sparkling eyes and leered at him over breakfast as he got to his feet and placed his empty mug on the table. "Sure babe, anything for my star-spangled soldier." He breathed into Steve's ear as he passed him and pressed up against his back, the close contact making Steve blush and his ears burned. With a final brush of his rough lips on Steve's cheek Tony left the room and Steve's eyes followed everyway sway of his slim hips with rapt attention before sighing and groaning, sinking his head into his arms.

The rest of the avengers slowly filed out the kitchen; the girls talking excitedly about some sort of shopping trip they had planned, Clint wolf-whistling as Phil pulled him out whilst Bruce still just sat there looking at Steve with a stern look. "Hope you're not planning on hurting him," Bruce said coolly, fixing him with a serious gaze. Steve gulped before coughing and nodded his head quickly and looked at Bruce with bright, earnest eyes, "I could never hurt him, he's one of the best things to happen to me." And got up from his seat and left Bruce sitting there with a smile on his face.

Jumping on his red vintage motorbike (a present from Tony) he kicked it to life before roaring into the city centre and chained it to a bike stand. Drawing his brown leather jacket closer to his body Steve shivered before quickly walking to the huge shopping mall. The sun was shining but a cold wind blew through NY in may and today was no different so his teeth chattered as he window shopped before being drawn to a rather simple looking shop on the side of the road.

The windows were frosted and cloudy, the shutters were painted brown and peeling but that didn't put Steve off, the sweet smell of hot chocolate and sugar reeled him in and sat him down on a table in the corner with a menu. The list of hot chocolates and sweets were endless, everything that Steve could ever have imagined, but what caught Steve's eye was the little advertisement in the corner.

'Chocolates for your loved ones'

And slowly everything was falling into place.

Steve walked down to Tony's lab under the avengers tower and looked at the chocolates and flowers that he carried in his shaking hands, it was goddamn stupid but Steve was a romantic at heart and what better way to wish the person that you loved happy birthday with a romantic meal with presents? Well that was what Steve would have liked, and Tony was the opposite of Steve.

Desperately looking around for something to hide the flowers and chocolates behind, Steve was caught off-guard by Tony absentmindedly coming out of his lab in a skin tight suit, just rolling up the sleeves and pushing back his hair. "Hi," Tony mumbled as he crashed into Steve and backed away a bit before his eyes landed on the presents that Steve was holding in his hands.

"Are those for me?" Tony's voice cracked at the thought of somebody remembering that today was his birthday, and by no-one but one of the people on this earth that he cared about deeply. Breathing deeply Steve nodded and thrust the presents who took them with an impassive face, not showing his emotions quite yet. "I'm sorry, they're probably crappy compared to what you usually get- "

"I love them," Tony muttered and looked up at Steve with those melting eyes and Steve felt his heart skip a beat in his chest and he struggled to breathe for a few minutes.

"Are you going to come then?" Steve finally got his head and heart back under control before holding out his elbow to Tony who took it with a roguish smile. "Sure." Tony amended and with that Steve whisked Tony off into the night full of soft smiles over dinner, handholding in central park and then finally the walk to Tony's bedroom door.

"I don’t want tonight to end," Steve whispered as they walked up the corridor towards Tony's bedroom and next to him Tony nodded in agreement. "Neither" They smiled at each other for a while as they walked before they inevitably ended up outside the door.

"I had an amazing time tonight," Steve said honestly as he took both of Tony's hands in his own and held them as they turned to face each other. "Same, it was the best birthday I've ever had." Steve could hear something underlying in Tony's bittersweet tone but he nodded and avoided those feelings for another night.

"Tonight was pretty perfect." Tony breathed and leant more into Steve's body who welcomed his warmth and affection. Leaning down Steve could feel Tony's cool, sweet smelling breath and without realising he leaned closer, inhaling until their lips where brushing against each others.

Tony squeaked as they did and jerking back Steve tried to move away but Tony held him in a vice-like grip and pressed their lips together once more, both of them melting into the familiar lines of each other. Their lips fitting perfectly together like puzzle pieces, just gently moving, trying to get to know each other and profess their undenying love for each other using actions not words.

Tony was the first to pull away from the soft kiss and leaned his forehead against Steve's. "that was a perfect kiss to end the perfect night," Tony muttered and Steve cracked his eyes opened with a smirk before pressing several chaste kisses to his lips.

"You're really sappy aren't you Stark?" he giggled against Tony's lips who just blushed but didn't deny the allegation.

"There's a lot of things you don't know about me Cap." Tony winked before taking Steve by the collar and dragging him into his bedroom and shutting the door firmly behind them.
