Super Secret Meeting Spot that's Definitely Not Starbucks [Somewhere on the Mainland, Saturday]

[heroic_jawline]

Steve had reached out to Natasha (through several layers of encryption and burner phones because Natasha, at least, understood how to lay low) and was now in his very best incognito outfit (beard, jeans, baseball cap, sunglasses) with Tony (in generally the same outfit), trying to appear casual as they walked around one of those giant outdoor outlet malls waiting for Natasha to make contact.

"She said she'd drop a pin with where she is in--" Steve glanced at his watch, "--eight and a half minutes. You've got the test with you?"

He'd asked that about four times already, but he was anxious.

Steve sighed softly. "You can prove it to yourself," he said.

[imafuturist]

"Not too weird for you?" Tony asked, only half teasing.

[heroic_jawline]

"I need it too," Steve admitted.

[imafuturist]

Tony kissed him again for that, keeping it soft and sweet for the moment.

[heroic_jawline]

"I love you," Steve murmured, sliding his fingers through Tony's hair, re-memorizing the feel of it through his hand.

[imafuturist]

"Love you too," Tony replied, showing no sign of pulling away at the moment.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve yanked Tony's shirt off and devoted himself to kissing the newly bare skin, learning every part of it.

[imafuturist]

"Oh, just like that," Tony sighed.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve hummed softly. "You like it?"

[imafuturist]

"I always like it with you," Tony murmured.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve kissed him again. "That's very flattering."

[imafuturist]

"Helps that you know me so well," Tony sighed.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve smiled. "I'll notice if you're gone," he murmured.

[imafuturist]

Tony ducked his head again, kissing him because coming up with things to say to that wasn't happening.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve curled his hand around Tony's cheek, pulling him closer.

[imafuturist]

"We'll get through this," he murmured.

[heroic_jawline]

"I know," Steve said. "We have each other."

[imafuturist]

Tony sighed and cupped Steve's face as well. "You know, I don't think other couples have these issues."

[heroic_jawline]

"Probably not," Steve agreed, nudging his nose against Tony's.

[imafuturist]

Tony kissed him again. "I'm glad you're here with me."

[heroic_jawline]

"I wouldn't know what to do with myself if you weren't here," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

Grow a grief beard and then travel into the past to ruin any character development that possibly happened?

"You and me both."

[heroic_jawline]

Sounds plausible!

"We'll talk about the other Tony later," Steve murmured.

[imafuturist]

"Agreed," Tony said, pressing him back a little to kiss intently.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve leaned back against the sofa with a happy sigh. "You feel good."
