Tony Stark-Wayne, Bruce Wayne's recently married husband, was working on setting up Jarvis into the Wayne Manor system, but with the house being so ancient, Tony has to be careful on what wire to pulled and which not to. He also watched carefully that he didn't touch a wire with another.
Bruce walked into the foyer of the house, and tapped Tony on the shoulder. Tony, looked up at his lover and took the screwdriver he was holding, out of his mouth. "What?" He asked with a hint of annoyance in his voice.
Bruce knelt down and kissed him gently on the lips. "Just saying good morning" he said with a smile. Tony smiled back, tiredness showing in his eyes. Bruce shook his head lightly. "Tony, why don't you go to bed?"
"And leave this for you? Ha, I don't think so."
Bruce rolled his eyes and picked him up in his arms. Tony opened his mouth to protest, but Bruce cut him off. "You are not going to sit there anymore. You have been there for three days working on this, you need to stop and sleep Tony." Tony didn't argue. He laid back in His husbands arms, looking up into his blue eyes with a smile.
Bruce carried Tony upstairs into their bedroom and placed him on the bed and wrapped the covers around him and kissed him passionately on the lips. "Goodnight Tony, I love you" Tony smiled back. "Love you too, Bruce"
Tony woke up around 5:30 that night, and was a little hungry; he walked downstairs and into the kitchen. Alfred was cooking dinner and Bruce was sitting at the kitchen table, drinking a cup of tea. "Ah evening Master Tony, did you sleep well?" Alfred asked with a smile.
"I would have if someone was with me." Tony said to the older man. Bruce looked up with a smile.
"Tony, I have to discuss something with you." Bruce said standing up and walking out of the kitchen.
"Dinner will be ready shortly master Bruce and master Tony." Alfred called after them. Bruce walked into the study and Tony followed close behind him.
"Tony, I have made a decision and I need your approval." Tony nodded along, not liking where it was going. "Tony, I want to adopt." Tony looked at him, surprised.
"Bruce, no."
"But-"
"No"
"Tony lis-"
"No Bruce, I am not ready for a kid just yet, I have never been around them and I'm not ready for one. Don't ask me again."
Bruce looked down with sad eyes, and Tony shook his head and sighed. "Let me finish with hooking Jervis and dummy up, I don't want the kid messing with the wires." Bruce smile came back and he pulled Tony into a hug and kissed him deeply. "Thank you" Tony grinned.
"You owe me something." Bruce nodded knowing what that something was. He unzipped his jeans and shut the door to the study.
