Steve sent yet another punching bag across the room. He wiped the sweat off his forehead, and set another one up. Wrong…Unnatural….Sick…. The words from his mother and father rang in his head. He hit the bags harder. Tony watched from afar. His Steve was still trying to get adjusted to the fact that it was okay now, have a boyfriend and be a male. Steve went to set another bag up, when Tony walked over.

"Something wrong?" He asked. He smiled seeing Tony's face.

"Yes. You're destroying my gym. Come on, come upstairs and we can get some food. I know you're hungry." Tony said. Steve chuckled, and snapped his knuckles.

"No, I'm-"His stomach growled. "Okay, maybe I'm a little hungry."

"I know you are. Come on." Tony smirked, and Steve followed him upstairs. He couldn't lie. He enjoyed the view. Steve chuckled to himself. "What? Like what you see. solider?" Tony winked at Steve, who blushed a deep shade of red. Tony got into the fridge, and pulled out a sandwich. "Enjoy."

"Thanks." Steve took a bite out of the sandwich.

"Let me take you out tonight." Tony suggested.

"What?"

"Let me take you on a date. A real date, not movie night in the living room, but out in public at a restaurant. "

"I-I-"

"Please Steve?" He begged. Tony pouted. Steve sighed. He couldn't resist Tony's perfect brown eyes.

"Okay, Okay. I'll go out with you tonight." Steve smiled, and finished off the sandwich.

"Perfect. I'll meet you at the Corton, at eight." Tony grabbed his coat. "I have a lot of work to do today."

"I figured. Okay." Steve got up and kissed Tony gently. Tony smirked, and wrapped his arms around his Soldier's neck.

"Ahh," Pepper interrupted. Tony and Steve broke apart, and blushed. "You know Tony when you dumped me; I figured it was for another woman. But now, I understand." She grinned, and walked over to Tony. "Don't forget the meeting tonight."

"What time?" He checked. He was not missing this date tonight.

"Eight."

"Nope. Cancel it. I've got plans!" Tony slipped his jacket on.

"You can't just cancel this Tony! It is a board meeting, and since you own Stark industries, you have to come!" Pepper insisted.

"I have a date tonight." Pepper looked back between Tony and Steve.

"I can reschedule it for tomorrow night, Do not miss it."

"Got it! Bye Steve! Love you!"

"Love you too!" He said. He was embarrassed. Steve waited for a few moments after Tony left to look at Pepper. He was waiting for her to say how disgusting it was it, and how ashamed he should be. "Wow."

"What?" She asked.

"You haven't said anything. Normally, I'd expect someone to tell me-"

"Steve, that's just the mindset you grew up with. Today, there isn't anything wrong with it. "Pepper smiled at Steve. "I'm just a little jealous that a man gets to kiss Tony now, instead of me."

Tony walked through town, smiling again. Steve said it back, for a second time. It was an improvement. Tony put the JARVIS ear piece he had me in case Steve need help with any of the technology in the tower, or if he just wanted to say hi. Noticing the suited men for a third time, Tony slipped in to a random shop. It just so happened to be the ring store he was looking for.

"How about that?" Tony muttered. He walked around for a moment, looking for something simple. He was planning to ask Steve to marry him tonight. "Hey, JARVIS, could I get some help?"

"Of course sir."

"I'm looking for something that says Steve on it. Well, Not-"

"I know Sir. Try a simple gold band. I believe he would appreciate it." JARVIS suggested. The men who had been following Tony entered the store.

"Good choice, JARVIS." Tony switched off his ear piece. He put it in his pocket, and made it look like he wasn't there.

"Mr. Stark?" One man asked.

"Can I help you?" Tony smirked, sarcastically.

"We need you to come with us."

"Sure." Tony followed the men. As he left the store, he took one last look at Stark tower, as if it would be the last time he ever saw it.
