Tony's panic attacks

Broken

the two were 'working' in the lab. Bruce, sitting in Tony's lap, while they made out. they didn't really care who walked into the lab anymore, it was Tony's lab and they could do as they pleased.

"you can't leave." Tony muttered.

"it'll only be a month." Bruce replied, kissing him. Tony blocked the kiss and glared at him.

"no. I won't sit here while you go off and disappear into some random third world country." Tony glared.

"I'm coming back Tony." Bruce said, rolling his eyes.

"no you aren't because you aren't leaving Bruce." Tony said.

"Tony, I have to." Bruce replied. Tony's eye twitched. if Bruce wanted to leave so bad, Tony would let him.

"fine. go, but you better come back." Tony glared. Bruce smiled and nodded kissing him again.

"I promise I'll come back." Bruce said. Tony nodded.

"besides you don't leave for another week." Tony added. Bruce nodded and smiled. it was a lie though. he couldn't tell Tony he'd be pissed that he'd waited until now to tell him. honestly Bruce had expected him to be angry already, but he wasn't. Bruce felt guilty now, but he knew it was for the best. he had some research he needed to do and he couldn't do it here.

"and I'm interrupting aren't I?" Steve said, walking in.

"yes." both replied.

"well, too bad. we have Chinese downstairs and it's movie night." Steve said.

"actually we're pretty busy Cap." Bruce said. Tony rolled his eye's.

"we better go. if we don't Thor will come hunt us down again." Tony said. Bruce paused, last time had been a horror show.

"yeah you're right." Bruce muttered getting up. he pulled Tony up with him, their hands swinging between them. Bruce bit his lip as he walked to the elevator with Tony and Steve. the guilt was going to eat him inside out. they headed downstairs and ate while watching the movie. obviously, the others noticed something was wrong with Bruce and Tony, but they didn't bring it up. while Tony thought Bruce was leaving next week, they knew when he was really leaving. for once, it was Bruce hanging on Tony, not the other way around. they went through three movies before Tony finally convinced Bruce to go to bed with him. he was exhausted, thats what Bruce had wanted. he wanted Tony absolutely exhausted. too bad he didn't realize it. they laid down in the bed, cuddled together happily.

"I love you Bruce." Tony muttered.

"I love you too Tony." Bruce smiled.

"see you in the morning." Tony murmured, falling asleep.

"yeah." Bruce replied, the smile falling off his face.

*next morning*

Tony yawned softly as he stretched. he paused. where was Bruce? he opened his eye's and looked around.

"Bruce?" Tony ask. he got up and looked around. "Bruce?" Tony ask. he got out of bed and headed downstairs. he walked into the kitchen and looked around. "Bruce?" Tony called out. the others paused in their eating to look at each other.

"whats up Tony?" Clint ask.

"can't find Bruce. must be in the lab." Tony replied, grabbing a cup of coffee and heading up.

"I feel guilty." Thor said.

"same here." Steve muttered. Phil nodded in agreement. Tony headed up to the lab and looked around. there was a note on his work space. he picked it up.
