Summery: needing a break, Bucky and Tony take a well earned small break- however nature has it out for them...

Another one today because I'm ill and took the day off school- your welcome!

Tony sighed contently as he leaned back against Bucky's chest as the two of them lounged together on the couch. They were currently holed up in a little cabin out in the woods taking a make deserved romantic vacation together. When they had left they had given specific instructions that they were not to be disturbed unless the fate of the world hung in the balance.

The two of them had been together for a little over a year now and were in love just as much today as they had been when Tony had first asked the soldier out. They complemented each other in ways they had never experienced before and were so incredibly happy that their friends took no small pleasure in teasing them constantly that they had never left the honeymoon phase of their relationship.

The way they got along together was something that both Tony and Bucky were very proud of. It wasn't an easy thing. It took work and a lot of healthy communication which they both leaned away from at times but it was well worth it. The only down sides to their relationship were their jobs and the way that they could be pulled apart with very little notice. They both did the best that they could to make sure that they took time out of their own lives for the other but it wasn't always a simple task.

Making time for one another was the exact reason that they were out in the cabin to begin with. It was remote and gave them time to just focus on one another without any other distractions pulling them in ten other directions. Right now they were settled in watching a movie while the wind and snow howled outside. It might have been cold outside but the two of them were nice and toasty warm snuggled together on the couch under a mountain of blankets.

Tony's head lulled back on Bucky's shoulder putting him in the perfect position to give open mouthed kisses to the column of Bucky's neck. The kisses were slow and warm, just a small gesture of affection to the man that had thoroughly stolen his heart.

In response to the kisses, Bucky's hand found its way under Tony's shirt to draw light little lines just above the hem of his pants. It was enough to make Tony shiver delightfully in Bucky's lap. His lover's touch never failed to send a thrill through the genius.

Just as Tony was deciding if he wanted to keep things light and easy and finish the movie they had started or to turn up the heat between them the choice was taken away. Outside the cabin came a loud gust of wind followed by the sound of a snapping and then crashing tree limb. Immediately after everything in the cabin was plunged into pitch darkness.

On the couch both men froze in place as they assessed the change in situation. While they both knew that blackouts in a snow storm weren't uncommon, it wasn't one that they had been expecting. Bucky sat up straighter on the couch bringing Tony with him as he used his serum enhanced eyesight to try and look around the room.

"Is there a flashlight somewhere around here?" Bucky asked, barely able to see anything. Night was dark out in the woods without any ambient light from nearby buildings and it was made even more oppressive with the sky covered in thick storm clouds.

"I think there might be one in the kitchen. Let me go check," Tony said as he pulled himself off of Bucky's lap and out from under the blankets.

As soon as he left his spot Tony shivered as the cool cabin air hit his blanket warmed skin. Without the electric heaters going, it was going to get cold in the cabin fast. Using the light from his phone Tony made his way into the kitchen and found a tiny flashlight in the junk drawer. It wasn't very powerful but it would do for now. With a cry of triumph Tony brought the light back into the living room held under his chin to cast shadows across his face. The light in his eyes kept him from being able to see but the sound of Bucky chuckling at his ridiculousness guided Tony's way back to his boyfriend's side.
