I Have a Crush...

Tony's POV:

I like Stephen Strange.

Not just like the normal type of friendly 'like', I have a crush on Stephen Strange. I don't know why I named him an Avenger, it was the least I could do. I mean he helped so much to defeat Thanos. 

I felt I owed him.

But now living with him is the hardest thing to do. I have to try my best not to laugh too hard when he makes a 'not so funny' joke, and try not to blush when he looks at me. And boy is it hard. 

It's around noon now, and I'm still stuck in my bedroom. I should probably get out but I'm too scared to run into Stephen. I finally slugged myself out of bed, and exited my room quietly. I heard noise coming from the kitchen, like voices. So I walked in.

I saw most half of the avengers chilling at the table having lunch. I studied the area but I could not spot him. So I sat down grabbing a plate to serve myself. 

"So Tony I heard you were setting up another one of your parties?" Steve asked interrupting my thoughts. I looked up at him.

"Yeah, I figured we have not had a party in a while so why not" I chuckled taking a bite out of a sandwich. They began to start talking about the party, and what they'll do and what they'll wear. Everything seemed nice until Stephen walked on into the kitchen, taking a seat DIRECTLY in front of me. Holy shit, he is so freakin handsome when he sits down.

I tried my best not to make eye contact with him, or even look at him, but I caught myself staring a couple of times. "So Stephen you gonna go to the party tonight, I mean we'll all be there?" I asked tying my best not to stutter. He looked up at me, and those beautiful ocean eyes locked with my boring brown ones. 

I gulped.

"I don't know, I'm not that big on parties." Stephen replied, I felt my heart sink and I looked down at my half empty plate of food. 

"Oh" I sighed. I tried my best not to look disappointed, but I think I was failing.

"Well, have you been to one of Tony's parties before?" I turned to whom asked this and saw Steve leaning back in his chair looking over at Stephen. "I mean you should attend because they're real fun!" I looked over at Steve and he nodded his head towards me. I knew I could always count on him.

"I guess I should go, I mean I haven't been to one in a long time." Stephen half smiled, then he looked at me, and I felt my body go numb at the sight of him smiling. I felt my cheeks go red and I had to look away or it would get really awkward. 

I decided to leave breakfast and head to my lab where I could work on planning the party. I got up from my seat and began to head down the stairs. It was nice and quiet in my lab, where I could work and think in peace. 

When I say think I mean think about how perfect Stephen is. I couldn't wrap my mind around how adorable he is when he smiles and how perfect he is when he walks. I couldn't bare not looking at him. 

I quietly began to plan out the parts of the party, and I made sure everything was gonna go flawlessly because this was the first party Stephen was gonna attend. I worked quick but not too fast so that I got everything down. But suddenly I heard the doors to the lab open, so I turned my head quickly to see Steve walking in. I looked at him confused as to why he would be down here in my lab. 

"Hey Tony, we need to talk" Steve said pulling up a chair to sit next to me. I turned my body to face him. 

"Yes?" I asked, he sighed heavily before speaking. 

"Why were you acting so nervous in front of Stephen?" He asked, I faced my lap trying not to show my obvious emotion. "I don't want to be up in your business but I'm just concerned." 

Of course he was concerned he was cap. "I-I don't know, he just makes me so Jello like you know?" I replied, not even understanding what was exiting my mouth. I knew exactly why I was nervous around him though, it was because I might be gay. 

"It's just you'er not acting like yourself lately and I think it's because of Stephen being an Avenger" He assured, I knew he was onto me. "Do you-you know... like him?" 

I couldn't defend myself anymore, if cap was onto something he could sense it from a mile away. I sighed in defeat. 

"I think I might be gay Steve" I blushed in embarrassment not wanting to make eye contact with anyone. Steve just looked at me. 

"You like Stephen, am I right?" 

"Yeah" I felt my heart plummet, breaking the news was harder than I thought. I forced myself to look up at Steve. He was smiling a bit, and I was confused. "What?" I asked in question, he chuckled a bit then began.

"I think you should tell him at the party, I mean having all your feelings bottled up inside isn't good, maybe telling him would let him know you really do care." Steve slowly got up from his seat and headed to the door. "Tony, you never know until you've tried." And with that he left.

I thought about it for a minute. What if Steve was right, maybe I should let Stephen know I care for him. But what if he hates me afterwards, and he thinks I'm weird. 

I sighed and finally came to my conclusion. 

I will confess.
