Stark Tower (An Avengers Fanfic)

Chapter 2: Not Alone

*Tony's POV*

It's been a month since Pepper left, Steve has been staying on my couch but when I have nightmares he stays in my room.

I suggested that he should move in but he got really nervous so instead we decided to move the whole team in.

Over the past few weeks Steve and I have been making rooms for each avenger and now they've moved in. This is our first meal together in the house and we ordered pizza.

"Thank you." I paid the delivery man, giving him an extra tip and Steve looked at me surprised.

"Did you just give him a fifty as a tip?" I nodded and helped Steve carry some pizza boxes to the kitchen.

"He's brave for coming up in my intimidating elevator." Steve laughed and set the pizza boxes down and I set down the ones I was carrying beside him.

I walked into the living room and saw Bruce being pushed off the couch by Natasha and Clint's teenage makeout session and Thor was staring out the window at the stars.

I cleared my throat and everyone turned, "Dinner is here."

As soon as I finished talking they all ran into the kitchen and I watched as Steve battled his way out carrying two plates over his head.

Once he made it out he handed one plate to me and we sat on the two seat couch together and when everyone else came back we set up the tv for a movie.

"What movie are we going to watch?" Bruce sat on the far end of the couch.

"I was thinking of a movie with mystery and a genius like me who wouldn't survive without his best friend." I paused to see if anyone would guess before grabbing the movie, "Sherlock Holmes."

After the movie I noticed that Steve had rested his head on my chest and our hands were intertwined. I looked at everyone else, Thor was spacing out, Natasha and Clint were still making out and Bruce had fallen asleep and then looked back at Steve who was looking up at me, he smiled sleepily and after I smiled back he laid his head back down.

"I think it's time for bed." I said as a few minutes and Steve stirred before sitting up so I could turn everything off, as people left to their rooms I looked back at Steve who was watching me.

"Do you want me to sleep in your room?" I put the movie back on the shelf, turned off the tv and then turned off the lights.

"Would you?" Steve nodded, standing up and taking my hand.

"I'll always be here when you need me." Steve and I walked up to my room in the dark, stumbling over boxes that still sat in the hall.

When we got to my room we curled up in the bed when I finally answered him, "I know you will, I'm not alone anymore."
