Tony's POV

After Bruce and Nat had finished teasing me about Steve Rogers annoying me, Nat had to leave, it was a shame because I was really starting to like he. Bruce was such a lucky man. He sat on the bed with me and pulled out his phone.

"You know that was all a joke right?" Bruce asked me. He was staying the night so it meant that if he was going to also start on the whole 'You like him' thing then I wouldn't be able to get away from it.

"Haha. Very funny." I said coldly. He shuddered at how cold I spoke. That was our thing. If I was annoyed and spoke cold to him, he'd pretend that he was cold from my voice and would start shivering. It made me laugh but also kind of annoyed me more. I flicked his forehead for doing this. He smiled and then we both just laughed. "Want to play cards?"

"Like I'd play cards against you. I am not interested in losing what little money I have on me." Bruce laid next to me. We stared at each other in the eyes. This is one of those moments where people think that we are a gay couple, but in reality Bruce is straight and I'm...undecided.

"I'm hungry, wanna get tacos?" I ask, ruining the beautiful gay moment with my best friend. He laughed.

"Yeah, I would love a taco."

And then we got up and headed downstairs. My mother was downstairs playing the piano and my father was out. Typical. I walked in and said hi to my mother and then I headed for the kitchen. Bruce followed me. I started to cook up a taco, because I know how to do that.

When we walked out with Tacos, my mother stopped me.

"You know, if you wanted Tacos you could have asked one of the maids." She said. She licked her thumb and whiped my cheek. I hate it when my mother does that.

"You know I'm 17 years old right." I said to her.

"Yes I do. But you're never too old for me to mother you."

And with that Bruce and I ran upstairs.

We sat down and started to eat and for a while everything was peaceful and quiet. We ate the tacos without a sound. But then Bruce just had to speak.

"I could get you a boyfriend. I know a guy who has a crush on you." He said. "It'll help you get over your anger for Steve."

"I swear to God, Bruce, if you mention Steve or dating one more time, I will stab you with the remains of this Taco shell."

"So you would rather do one night stands with Pepper than find someone to settle down." Bruce said, finishing up eating his food. I wasn't lying about stabbing him with my taco. I jumped up and came at him with the tiniest shard of taco shell. He held his hands up in defence and yelled "Mercy! I surrender!" I got off him and took the dishes. I left them on my desk. A maid will clean that up later.

"You know. I don't want to go to school tomorrow." I said. "Do you wanna skip?"

"No, I need to go to school. You know I do."

"Fine." I grumbled and turned on my tv to watch some Netflix with my best friend
