Avengers Academy (Stony)

Part 15: Make Up

I had spent a whole week ignoring Tony's little tricks to try to get me to cave. He was walking round the dorm room shirtless whenever he had a chance; he even started doing push-ups and every time he pushed up he was groan making me desperate. I even left the room a few times just to avoid doing anything I'd regret. Even classes felt a bit weird and people knew there was something going on between us. We would barely talk, he would spend a lot of time talking to the hot guys and girls because he knew it would make me want him more. And it so did. Maybe it was time to let it all go before something happens that will end us for good. 

It was late and I was coming back from hanging out with Bucky. The corridors were so dark I couldn't see my watch. I stopped at the dorm door as it was locked. I knocked on the door and waited a few seconds; I knew Tony was in there. "Tony, open the door," I said calmly. I could hear him sniffing quietly through the walls and I started to feel a little bit bad even though I knew I shouldn't. "Come on babe, I know you're in there." I froze and hit myself in the head. Babe! 

"Why do you want to come in?" he asked with his voice cracking. "You don't want me anymore."

"It's also my dorm Tony... and you know that's not true... I do," I said. "I've been thinking... maybe it's time we talked about things." He slowly opened the doors and I turned on the light. His hair was a bit messed up from where he had been lying and again, wasn't wearing a shirt. His arms were starting to look kind of good though... and his collar bone was so sharp, I just wanted to kiss his neck and so much more. I realised I was staring at his body and Tony clicked his fingers at me. 

"Well you wanted to talk," said Tony.

"Huh, oh yeah," I said. We sat down on his bed and I looked into his eyes. They were red and tired but he still looked cuter than ever. "I've been thinking about us, I don't want to waste anytime of our relationship not talking. I miss it too much." He put his hand on mine and took a deep breath.

"I really am sorry for how I acted. You know I love you and you know I'm stubborn and arrogant. I shouldn't have done it," said Tony. It felt weird to hear him say that as he hated to admit when he was wrong. We looked into each others eyes and then I was leaning into him like he was a magnet pulling me in with no control. He put his hands around the back head and my lips ran into his, it had never felt so good. "Mh Steve," he said as I lay down on top of him holding him by the shoulder. 

"I did really miss this," I said. "I just wanted a bit of time to think."

"I get it," said Tony. He started to take off my shirt and his eyes lit up as he saw my chest. "It's been so long." I put my head next to his and we lay down together in silence and my hand was interlocked with his. The touch of his soft hair against my cheek was the most comforting part of the week because it felt like I was safe. And that was something that would never change.
