A Private Villa That Totally Cost Too Much, Amalfi Coast, Italy - Sunday Morning

[imafuturist]

Tony had promised to go all out for Steve's birthday and goddamnit, he was doing just what he promised.

He'd probably have to get JARVIS to not spill how much it cost, though. Yeah, that was going on the list.

But it was more than worth the view, watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee while Steve finished up his usual morning marathon.

Steve smiled, scratching down Tony's spine with his fingers. "So old--"

[imafuturist]

"Barely able to keep up with my gorgeous younger lover," Tony added, smiling despite himself. "Don't look too closely, you might find some grey hairs."

[heroic_jawline]

"I wouldn't dream of looking," Steve said, "but if you had any, you'd just look distinguished."

[imafuturist]

"You'll still love me then?" Tony asked, brushing his fingers along Steve's chest.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'll love you always," Steve said quietly.

[imafuturist]

Tony pressed a smile in against the crook of Steve's neck and shoulder. An admission like that was well worth hearing even in the midst of all the teasing. "You--"

[heroic_jawline]

Steve kissed the top of the head. "I ruined it, huh."

[imafuturist]

"Nah," Tony replied, closing his eyes to use Steve as a very sticky pillow. "I'll remember that when--just at times."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed, rumbly and deep in his chest. "It's true."

[imafuturist]

"You say that while I'm still handsome," Tony joked, mouthing a little bite at Steve's chest in response.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'd say that if you'd turned bright blue," Steve said. "As long as it wore off eventually, of course."

[imafuturist]

"I could probably tweak the under-suit to have more blue in it." Tony, no.

[heroic_jawline]

"Not necessary, sweetheart," Steve chuckled.

[imafuturist]

Tony sighed, relaxing against him further. He brushed his thumb over Steve's skin lazily as he watched the clear blue skies out the window of the too extravagant room. "I like thinking about a future with you," he murmured.

[heroic_jawline]

"Mmm," Steve said, smiling softly. "Me too. What do you see?"

[imafuturist]

"You asking about the usual stuff?" Tony asked even as he pictured the sappiest things.

[heroic_jawline]

"What counts as usual for us?" Steve asked with a small smile.

[imafuturist]

"Marriage, kids," Tony replied, twisting a little to press a kiss to his chin. "For us? Maybe a multi-universal team."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve's smile turned wistful. "Think they'd help me track Bucky down?"

[imafuturist]

That was an interesting jump there, Steve.

"Why wouldn't they?"

[heroic_jawline]

"Your Buck seemed pretty set on me leavin' him alone," Steve murmured.

[imafuturist]

"My Bucky has a warehouse full of issues with you," Tony corrected. "Him. Its complicated."

[heroic_jawline]

"It feels wrong," Steve said quietly. "Like having a part of my body not working right, having him be upset with me. Exasperated, all the time. But actually angry?" He pressed his lips together. "Avoiding me? No."

[imafuturist]

"He's not the person he once was," Tony replied, running a soothing hand over Steve's shoulders. "Neither are you."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve sighed, closing his eyes. "In my head, I know. My gut's still taking it awfully personally."
