Stark Tower but Smallish [Sunday afternoon]

It had been weirdly awkward between Steve and Tony since the emotional baggage day. Tony had been working in the lab, Steve had been ~~eating all the Moobyburgers~~ working out, restocking the cheese fridge, and checking in with his colleagues at home.

But today, Father's Day, Steve was giving Tony another hour before going into the lab and dragging Tony out, feeding him, and making him talk. He missed them being them.

"Promise?" Steve asked, making earnest eye contact and not entirely unlike Patriot's puppy eyes.

That was cheating and you know it, Steve. "Promise."

Steve kissed him again. "Thank you."

"Ribs," Tony said, taking a deep breath to prepare himself for this whole... thing. "I'll know."

"I'll get blankets and wine," Steve said. "See you in fifteen minutes."

Tony was just going to scrub lab gunk off himself and do the very normal level of shower based disassociation that everyone did.

Right?

Right.

He joined Steve on the dot, hair damp and wearing some very basic pajamas after hesitation over some Captain America themed ones.

Steve smiled like he had been afraid Tony was going to disappear on him. "There's still some ribs and I left you an egg roll."

Look, it'd been pretty tempting to have some kind of emergency happen!

"Thanks," Tony said, stomach growling as he realized how hungry he was.

"Always," Steve said, holding the blanket up for Tony to get under.

Well, with an offer like that, how could he refuse?

Tony took a seat, settling in with the food to eat enough that maybe they'd forget with the were going to do here.
