That Powerful Soul and Spirited Heart (Wingfic) Book 3

Chapter 27 Soft T'Challa

Tony's Pov:

"Shut up...it's cute." I nuzzled T'Challa more and tried to get closer to Sam.

"Can you two sit down...I'm trying to check on him." I heard Bruce say.

"How's he doing?" I heard Steve ask.

"A lot better...Still weak but he's not dying so...that's always a plus." Bruce said and I snorted cracking my eyes open. 

"Always a positive but sir has not been dying before and was still unwell," Jay said. They looked at me and Stephen walked over pressing a kiss to my forehead.

"You scared me...several times," Stephen said.

"Sorry." I croaked and he frowned.

"I'll get you some water," Bruce said wandering off.

"I see you are having a cuddle puddle," Stephen said.

"Don't want to...be alone," I mumbled feeling wore out from talking. I started to close my eyes when I jerked startling the two in bed. "The babies!? Where are they!?" I shouted and coughed immediately.

"Hey...easy," Sam said as I hacked.

"None of that," T'Challa said.

"They're fine...They are visiting May who is in love with them." Stephen said and I trembled.

"Tony?" Sam asked.

"Ukatana?" T'Challa asked and I gave up relaxing back against him feeling drained.

"Here," Bruce said walking in with a cup of water and straw. Sam took it from him and held it up to me making me chuckle.

"Feel like a baby," I mumbled taking a sip.

"Well, you are as weak as one," Bruce said and I glared at him.

"Bite...me," I said eyelids becoming heavy.

"Get some rest," Sam said and I fought trying to stay awake because I could tell they are worried about me. I felt T'Challa comb my hair back and saw Sam grin...Don't. I felt fingers in my hair and groaned. I felt my head tingle at the sensation and my eyes closed slowly as I looked at Stephen. I drifted off to feeling Sam massaging my head.

T'Challa's Pov:

"He's out," Stephen said smiling.

"Good," Sam said.

"Why did he shake like that?" Steve asked.

"Like what?" Bruce asked.

"He was trembling," Sam said.

"Have you ever overused a muscle?" Bruce asked and we all nodded. 

"He's exhausted so that little bit of movement just wore him out," Jay said.

"He really is weak then," Steve said frowning.

"Yeah," Bruce said.

"How're the little ones?" I asked.

"Good...the boy adores Peter," Steve said.

"They also seem rather fond of putting their hands on my face," Jay said.

"I'm worried though...our daughter is very...quiet," Stephen said.

"She misses her mommy." Sam cooed and Bruce blinked.

"Wait, a second," Bruce said and we all looked at him. "She was touching his pulse point...She was using her power on him in the jet...She was sobbing when we lost Tony and has been quiet this whole time." Bruce said and Stephen's eyes widened.
