New York City, Sunday - NYE

[imafuturist]

So, a monkey wrench in the plan of celebrating the new year with Jan came in the form of figuring out how to get there. Because getting a taxi or an Uber tonight was just impossible without waiting an hour or so.

That lead to dragging Steve onto the wonder of public transportation to get them where they needed to go this evening. This evening that they were claiming was one of the coldest New Years Eve's in over a century. Which was just tons of fun all around.

Which was clearly the only reason that Tony's PDA game was strong as he held onto Steve on the back of the subway car to keep him warm and hide his face against Steve's chest a little.

It was New York, people had seen way worse.

"Next stop we just pay extra for an Uber," Tony informed him.

"This isn't so bad," Steve said with more enthusiasm than strict adherence to the truth. "We've made lots of new friends."

Drunken idiots "accidentally" bumping into you on the subway, Steve. Not the same thing.

[imafuturist]

"You are so full of shit," Tony said with a snort.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve pulled him in closer. "I am," he confirmed, laughing. "Where are going now again?"

[imafuturist]

"Jan's. Well, one of her places," Tony said, gladly pressing into him. "She's got a decoy party going in Manhattan."

Of course she'd have a decoy party to hide her real party.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve burst out laughing. "Of course she does," he said fondly. "Are you sure we've been invited to the real one?"

[imafuturist]

"Oooo, I'm telling her you said that," Tony replied,wrapping his arms around Steve's waist to lean into him as the subway car jolted a little.

[heroic_jawline]

"That's assuming she's even at this part at all," Steve teased, grinning down at Tony from under his ridiculous knitted hat.

[imafuturist]

It was adorable and Tony needed to buy him about five more of them. "And miss out on snapping a picture of me dipping you for a New Years kiss? Never."

[heroic_jawline]

"Who's dipping who now?" Steve asked, laughing.

[imafuturist]

"I'm deeply offended that you don't think I can manage it," Tony replied, tapping a gloved finger at Steve's chest.

[heroic_jawline]

"Oh, I'm sure you could," Steve said, with a little smirk. "I just didn't know you'd packed a suit tonight."

[imafuturist]

"What was that? You don't want a kiss tonight?" Tony asked.

[heroic_jawline]

"I didn't say that at all," Steve said quickly, using the jostling of the car as an excuse to get closer.

[imafuturist]

Tony hummed like he totally believed him, having no trouble in cuddling closer. It was that or fall into an already drunk woman who really needed a jacket. "Well, that's good to know."

[heroic_jawline]

And the other half of her skirt. It was cold out there, lady!

"I've never really had someone to kiss on New Year's," he admitted.

[imafuturist]

Welcome to modern New York, Steve.

"Yeah?" Tony, don't sound so into that.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve's cheeks--the little that was showing because seriously, New York, it's cold--turned bright red. "Well, yeah."

[imafuturist]

"For that, you can dip me," Tony promised, going up onto his toes to kiss Steve's nose. Because it was still exposed.

[heroic_jawline]

"Sure it won't look like I'm trying to recreate V-E Day?" Steve checked.

[imafuturist]

"I wouldn't say no to that," he assured Steve. "Might even be into it as long as you're not expected me to wear heels."

[heroic_jawline]

"I'm definitely not expecting you to wear heels," Steve murmured, "though the gentleman half the car ahead of it is definitely pulling it off."

[imafuturist]

Tony glanced over his shoulder to see the gentleman in question. Or lady? Possibly lady, depending. "I might finally be at equal height with you if I wore them," he said, looking back at Steve thoughtfully.

[heroic_jawline]

"Is that something that bothers you?" Steve teased.

[imafuturist]

"Terribly," Tony replied, tugging on Steve's scarf in order to kiss him without anything interrupting it.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve froze up: holding onto people in a subway car was one thing, but he was half-expecting some kind of rude catcall for this.
