Narrator's POV

"STEPHEN!!!!!" Tony yelled from his room sounding congested as heck.

"WHAT?!" Stephen yelled back as he entered Tony's room

"Don't yell at me, my ears are still sensitive," Tony complained.

Stephen just rolled his eyes added to a scoff

"Sorry, now what is it that you want?" Stephen asked.

"I need more tissues. And some more ice water, my throat is killing me," Tony whimpered

"Here," Stephen said sticking his hand through a portal and grabbing a tissues box, handing it to Tony.

"Give me your glass, I'll go refill it," Stephen said walking over to Tony.

"Thank you," Tony said

"No problemo," Stephen said taking the glass and heading downstairs.

"Tony..ngh, come on!!! YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE PILL!" Stephen screamed struggling to get Tony to take his meds.

Tony was at the loopy stage in his sickness, almost cured, but not quite there.

"Ahhh, you're screaming again! And...ahh.. no I DON'T WANT IT!" Tony said trying to keep Stephen away from him.

"You're such a brat!! Come on if you take this you won't be as miserable!" Stephen said trying to get a grasp on Tony's flailing arms.

"What if I want to be miserable!!" Tony yelled crossing his arms, stopping the struggle.

Stephen sighed putting his guard down and looking at Tony.

"Come on, you don't want to be cooped up in your bed anymore, listening to the boring old television. Enjoy some time with Peter, he really missed hanging out with you," Stephen said calmly.

"Fine, I'll take it," Tony pouted.

Stephen smiled handing Tony his meds and his water.

"Now I'll be downstairs, wash-

"No! I mean please will you keep me company. The solitude is killing me," Tony complained

"Ok, fine, but I'm keeping my distance. Can't take any chances getting sick," Stephen said

"Oh come on! I'm past the contagious stage." Tony said patting the right side of the bed.

"Ugh! Ok, just this once. This means nothing," Stephen said getting on the other side of the bed.

"Thank you," Tony said shifting around the blankets

"Now that's total bull crap! You're not suppose to use a tourniquet like that," Stephen complained as they watched the show.

"It's fine! At least they tried some-what to make it seem believable," Tony replied.

"Well they should try harder," Stephen pouted, as he crossed his arms.

The two were sitting on Tony's bed enjoying "The Good Doctor" well Stephen was more criticizing the show rather than enjoying it. Tony's fever was now slowly diminishing as he was having a good time listening to Stephen's complaints, and soon enough from his sickness he fell asleep.

Stephen didn't notice this until he felt weight on his left shoulder. It was a head. A head from a sick man that was lying next to him. Stephen sighed and turned off the TV as he lightly and carefully lifted Tony's head off of his shoulder and onto the pillow.

Then he got out of the bed and started for the door and swiftly exited the room and made his way downstairs to fix food for the both of them. He then put some quaint music on that could only be heard from the kitchen. It was classical music, so in Stephen's ability he started doing ballet turns to the music as he did he lessons in his early 20's.

Stephen soon heard sizzles as water started spilling out of the pot of pasta he was making. He quit his dancing as he rushed over to the pot and turned down the heat by a bit then added the uncooked pasta in. Then he started making some home-made sauce, since he thought the canned sauce was the most disgusting thing he had ever tasted.

Tony and Stephen were eating the dinner made by Stephen, just talking and laughing about life and did some more catching up.

"I still find it weird that the only light that stayed on was the 'A' and that became the logo for the Avengers," Tony said putting his bowl in the sink where Stephen started doing the dishes.

"Yeah, that is pretty weird," Stephen replied

"You know what else is pretty?" Tony asked

"Wha- What?" Stephen asked being caught of guard.

"Your dancing," Tony giggled as he ran as fast as he could upstairs back to his room.

Stephen just stood there with a dumbfounded look on his face with a little tint on red on his cheeks.

"Hey you little ass!" Stephen yelled turning off the water and running after Tony

Let's just say Tony had some words said to him by Stephen.
