Time for their second anniversary...

-:-:o:-:-

Steve woke up fast. His years in the war causing him to always be up and ready. So by the time the sun was climbing up the horizon, Steve would be lying awake.

Before he got into a relationship he would get out of bed, get breakfast, and go for a run.

Now he loved these lazy mornings. When neither men had anything to do and they were contend to spend the morning just holding onto each other.

Of course, the setting was very different anyway. Instead of the white and light colours of the tower, they were surrounded by the earthy browns that covered Tony's cabin. Steve was rather surprised when they arrived. He expected everything to be more... Tony. Futuristic, modern and completely upgraded. Instead it was mostly fitting to the surrounding nature. A lot of bare stone and wood, a cosy fireplace and beautiful paintwork of the environment.

That didn't mean Tony hadn't left his fingerprint of course. Because with one simple voice command, you could have a screen popping out of the nearest surface. That didn't mean Steve had to make use of that privilege though.

They arrived the day before, after a eight our flight followed by a one our drive, they were contend to just collapse on the bed after a quick tour through the mansion. (Steve refused to call a house this size a cabin. Really? The thing had twelve bedrooms... "Excuse you, but anything smaller than ten rooms is not worth buying." "Not everybody needs a room per day of the week Tony...")

Now, Steve was watching the man next to him starting to wake.

Loki was lying on his stomach. One hand underneath his pillow. The sheets, tangled around his legs, covered just enough to protect his modesty.

Steve couldn't help but brush a stand of hair out of the god's face. Causing Loki to stir a bit.

He slowly opened his eyes, taking in the man in front of him, before a lazy smile appeared on his face.

"Good morn mon Capitaine."

Steve laughed before leaning down to kiss Loki. The god had taken on to calling him that after their 'trip' to Paris.

"A swell morning for a swell day."

This time it was Loki's turn to laugh.

"Well I'm glad you are having a swell day Love."

They kissed again. "Happy anniversary."

"Happy anniversary."

A while later, after a very enjoyable shower, they were sitting tangled together at the breakfast table. Loki in Steve his lap, sharing bits and pieces of a big pile of pancakes between kisses.

"Do you have any plans Love?"

Of course Steve had plans. He wanted this day to be perfect, to make the chance of Loki saying yes tonight as big as possible.

"I thought we could go for a walk through the mountains. If we pack some lunch, we could have a picnic outside. Then we could maybe walk past the lake that's close by, and for tonight I ordered a nice dinner. I thought you might appreciate some privacy, instead of sitting in a restaurant all evening." As soon as he finished talking Steve was doubting his plans. "Of course, if you don't like it we can do something else. Whatever you want is fine. I just-"

"It's perfect."
