Steve pov.

I opened my eyes to a sound. For a bit i couldn't place it before quickly realized it was the sound of vomiting. I swiftly pat the side of the bed that Tony sleeps on finding it empty. I then sat up to find the bathroom door close but the light on as more sounds of retching emit from it.

I simply got out of bed before knocking on the door lightly. "Can i come in?" I ask getting no answer from the pregnant man. I open slowly opened the door to see Tony's head mostly in the toilet as he threw up.

"Tones, are you ok?" I asked before joining him on the ground. As i started to rub his back i realized that his shirt was soaked in sweat. I only sigh before continuing to rub his back. When he calmed down a bit he was panting trying to catch his breath. When he looked up at me he was shockingly pale as his eyes was puffy and red.

"Were you crying? Did you have a bad dream?" I asked in a hushed tone. "N-No." Tony mumbled before dry heaving into the toilet. "Maybe we shouldn't do that press conference today." I whispered as Tony shook his head no in reply.

"Am fine." He mumbled before swallowing hard and flushing the toilet. "Am Fine." He mumbled to himself as i helped him up from the floor. I quickly guided him to the bed and turned on the nightstand lamp before i went to the closet for a new shirt. When i walked back into the room he was already curled up asleep. I tapped him lightly making him open his eyes sleepily.

"I'm sorry Honey, but i need to change your shirt and probably get some tea and bread in your system before you go back sleep." I whispered as tears started to fall down Tony's face. From that i could only get that he is probably a bit depressed and insecure which is understandable.

"NNNooo." He whined dragging out the word sadly. "I know, i know. Your tired but i need you to eat something." I say making him turn away from me. "For me." I whispered not getting an answer from him.

"For the babies, please." I said whispering the last part before he sighed. "F-Fine." He mumbled as i pulled him into a sitting position to change his shirt.

"Am coming right back." I say as i put the damp shirt in the dirty clothes hamper. I only got a quiet hum of acknowledgment from Tony before i walked out of the room to the common room.

"Jarvis, what time is it?" I asked the towers AI system as i put the kettle onto the lit stove. "3:16" The voice said almost instantly, i only nodded instead of telling him thanks as usual. I then took a slice of bread out of the fridge before putting it in the toaster.

As i wait for the bread to toast i took the kettle off of the stove and made the tea making sure the water wasn't to hot. I then took the now toasted bread out of the toaster before spreading some butter on it and wrapping it in a tissue.

I quickly pick up the two items before walking back into the room finding Tony sleep which i expected since its three in the morning and he is not feeling well mentally or physically. I lightly rest the tea cup on the nightstand before tapping Tony. He then rolled over looking at me confused and annoyed.

"Bread." I say as i wave it in front of his face with a reassuring smile. He only sighed before taking it from me with a hushed 'thank you' before biting into it. I simply smiled before putting the small trashcan next to Tony in case he had to throw up again before climbing into bed with a small sigh.

Tony was desperately trying to stay awake while trying to eat and drink the tea. He ate all of the bread and drank half of the tea before he basically passed out.

I quickly turned off the bedside table lamp submerging us in darkness except from the light from the moon that is pouring into our room. I waited a bit longer before going back to sleep to make sure he was ok and that the babies wasn't bothering him.
