Tony Stark has a secret. Several, in fact. Outed to the world as an Omega, he finds himself stuck between a rock and a hard place. His only hope at salvation rests upon the strong shoulders of a certain Captain Steven Rogers. The problem? Rogers hates his guts.

tony stark is sixteen, and a senior at shield high. he's smart, really smart, and both popular and unpopular. people know him by rumours, rumours he can't really escape. so it's hard for him to actually make friends. which is why, when he finds out steve rogers is in desperate need of tutoring in order to stay on the football team and keep his college scholarship, tony makes a deal with steve. all steve has to do is essentially bodyguard tony under the guise of a relationship, and tony will tutor steve in return. oh, and tony's got a shitty ex who won't leave him alone. that makes befriending (falling for) steve pretty difficult. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ guess what- there's trigger warnings! tw: abuse, eating issues, sexual assault, sexual coercion/rape and lots of angst (i do not own most of the characters)
