Tony's POV

I went down towards the track and smiled. This was the real reason that I wanted to come here. Handing over some money to my guy, he got me set up and into a race car. The guy making the announcements spoke up "Now entering the race track. Anthony Stark." I looked to the box to see Steve stand up to watch me. He looked worried. Never mind. This was going to be fun.

I set off the car and started to instantly speed. This was my sport.

Steve's POC

I watched Tony speed out. worry took over and I rushed to the railing, like that was going to do anything. He was actually really good. His car speeded past me and around all the sharp corners. I don't know what possessed him to do this, but as long as he was having fun. I felt the sudden need to go to the pit stop area and when he finished his lap, give him the biggest hug possible. However, the stupid security guard stopped me. He let Tony in this area, why not me? Oh yeah... Tony has money. I went back to my seat, feeling more stupid than I had already felt before.

Watching Tony driving was amazing, he was so fluid with his movement. It made me think of how fluid his movement was when he was- nevermind. I shouldn't think about that, it would make things very uncomfortable for me here. But it was hard not to think of it now. 

Zoning out was a bad idea. When I focused again, there had been an accident. A driver had crashed his car and Tony was driving right towards it. Like the scene in Cars, Tony drove through the massive crash. He pulled into the pit stop and got out the car as quick as possible. I could only see him on the screen now, but I recognised the symptoms from him. 

I rushed to the pit stop again. The security guard still wouldn't let me through, until Tony started to call my name. That got me through and I went straight over to the male who was definately in the middle of an anxiety attack.

Tony's POV

I couldn't breathe. So much was going through my mind while I was on the track. It started off being that I needed to impress Steve- which I think I accomplished. Then it turned into that guys behaviour towards me. My throat started to grow tight at that point and I knew an attack was coming on. Only to find a fucking crash I had to dodge. I thought it was time to get off the track before I killed myself accidentally.

Steve held me close. Neither of us said anything. I could tell he wanted to, but he couldn't for the pit crew being very loud while working. He just held my head to his chest. My eyes started to feel heavy. My face was soaking from crying. My breathing finally  calmed down. I just felt extremely tired. What was today? Saturday or Sunday? I don't even know any more. I think it is Sunday and that means school tomorrow. I look at Steve.

"What day is it?" I ask groggily. Steve chuckled, seeing how tired I had gotten. My chest was hurting, probably from the anxiety attack just adding to my heart problems.

"Saturday." He said, "Come on, lets get you home." And he picked me up. He carried me to the car and put me in the passenger seat. I wasn't going to complain.

Steve's POV

He fell asleep on the way back to his. It was adorable and frankly, I am kind of sad that I have to go home soon. I shook him awake when we got back to his and he fell back to sleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. I thought it best to leave- rather than out stay my welcome with his family. I kissed his head and walked out of the door.
