"Oh my God! I still can't believe we're here!" Pepper said, bouncing uncharacteristically as she settled into their opera box in the old theater.
"I know!" Darcy agreed, "And these seats! I mean, A.J. could probably get me pregnant from this distance!" Behind her, Ian made a face, as if he wasn't sure exactly how to react to that statement.
"You would be an A.J. kind of girl, wouldn't you." Natasha said, looking at Darcy with a smile.
"Well ladies, eat, drink, scream, sing; Tonight is on me." Tony said taking a seat behind Pepper.
Steve settled in behind Natasha, a large grin stretching across his face. "So this band is called the 'Backside Boys?'"
"Backstreet Boys!" Jane corrected him, "I spent my entire middle school career drooling over them!"
"You said they are a musical group?" Thor asked again. He was thoroughly confused by all the fuss.
Darcy turned around in her seat, "Listen, Thunder Pants, just relax and soak it all in. You're winning huge boyfriend points by just being here." She said jerking her head in Jane's direction.
"So does that mean I'm winning boyfriend points?" Ian asked. He was shifting in his seat like he really didn't want to be there.
"Yes, honey," Darcy said, patting him on the arm before turning back around in her chair, "We are so having sex tonight."
Ian's face perked up at that.
When the band came out, Pepper, Darcy, and Jane screamed. Even Natasha let her signature stoic professionalism drop enough to sing along with them throughout the show.
"You are...my fire...the one...the desire-" Steve had picked up on the chorus, "You know, I think I like these guys." He shouted over the music and the screaming crowd.
When the show was over, the girls stood reluctantly. A pimply-faced usher came to their box with an armful of t-shirts and posters for them.
"Thanks kid, but I don't like to be handed things." Tony said, directing the usher to distribute the merchandise to the ladies (and Steve). Thor was still confused but took a t-shirt anyways.
After the usher left, Tony walked to the door of the box. "I guess we should be going...unless of course you think we should use these backstage passes?" Tony pulled several passes on lanyards out of his pocket. Pepper, Darcy, and Jane screamed. Natasha and Steve looked genuinely excited, while Ian looked skeptical. Thor was still confused.
