New York City, NY - Friday Morning

[imafuturist]

Thanksgiving come and gone with a decent amount of definitely catered leftovers stashed away in the fridge. Thank you very much, Jan.

Tony stumbled on out of bed to find leftover pie to eat with his morning coffee as he waited for Steve to come back from what he was assuming was his usual morning run. Only through Manhattan this time rather than the island.

[for that guy!]

Steve came back in a half hour later with a bag full of bagels and lox. "Esther insisted," he said with a grin.

[imafuturist]

"You're too easy," Tony said, shaking his head and laughing quietly.

[heroic_jawline]

"She's old," Steve said, "and has the best bagels in the borough. I'm not going to make her angry."

[imafuturist]

"Understandable, understandable," he teased, reaching over to help him with the bags.

[heroic_jawline]

"Thank you," Steve said, kissing him lightly. "Because we needed more food after yesterday."

[imafuturist]

"Luckily we have a super soldier to help with all of it," Tony replied, putting the bagels on the counter. "Coffee?"

[heroic_jawline]

"Please," Steve said, smiling. "How many cups behind am I?"

[imafuturist]

"Would you believe me if I said only one?" Because if you counted the pot as one cup...

[heroic_jawline]

"I would not," Steve said, smiling over his mug.

[imafuturist]

"I had pumpkin pie so it wasn't all caffeine at least," Tony said brightly.

[heroic_jawline]

"This is incredibly reassuring," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

"Pie for breakfast is a time honored post-holiday tradition," Tony said solemnly. "Rhodey taught me that back in college."

[heroic_jawline]

"Well, you know I love tradition," Steve said, grinning. "Especially pie-based traditions."

[imafuturist]

"So, bagels and pies," he replied brightly. "Best morning ever."

[heroic_jawline]

"And coffee," Steve said. "It's a good morning. What's the plan for the rest of the day?"

[imafuturist]

"Not moving at all," Tony suggested. "Lounge around the place?"

Maybe have to stop some super villains.

[heroic_jawline]

Super villains loved disrupting Black Friday sales. It was known.

"I am not very good at lounging," Steve said, stating the very obvious, "but I'll give it a shot!"

[imafuturist]

"You're only good at it when I act like a blanket," Tony agreed. "We could get Christmas shopping started instead if you wanted to, though."

After they finished the pie.

[heroic_jawline]

"With the rest of Manhattan," Steve teased.

But shopping with Tony was always different and fun, and so, "Sure. Sounds swell."

[imafuturist]

"We can get you a nice jacket for the winter," Tony suggested. "That will probably get covered in space slime or something. But it'll be warm until then!"

[heroic_jawline]

"I could use a coat," Steve admitted.

[imafuturist]

"And you'll be a good human shield for me in the crowd," he teased, leaning over for a coffee flavored kiss.

[heroic_jawline]

"I've been known to throw some elbows," Steve said, nodding.

[imafuturist]

"It's why I married you," Tony agreed just as seriously.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed as he leaned in to kiss him. "I knew it. Eat your bagel."
