Hi, sorry it's a bit of a short chapter. Next one will be longer. Enjoy

Chapter 7

Steve felt Tony's body go limp in his arms. He stopped talking about Ireland and looked down at Tony. He couldn't see Tony's face, so he slowly lifted Tony face. He saw that Tony's eyes were closed.

'Tony?' Steve said. 'Tony, please stay awake,' Steve mumbled to him. Tony's face was freezing in Steve's hands. Steve patted his cheek.

'Tony?' Steve asked again, begging that Tony would wake up.

'Tony!' Steve shouted. Tony jerked awake and blinked.

'F-f-fucking w-w-w-what-t?' Tony stuttered. He started to shiver violently. Steve pulled Tony, if it was possible, closer to his body. Tony's lips, ears and fingers were all blue. Steve put his hand over Tony's heart. His heartbeat was very weak, slowing ever so slightly.

'Tony you have to stay awake ok?' Steve said, turning Tony's head so he could look into his chocolate brown eyes. Tony's eyes were unfocused and glazed. Steve patted Tony's cheek.

'Tony, can you hear me?' Steve asked. Tony slowly nodded, trying to remember to stay awake. Steve pulled him, if it was possible even closer to him. Steve rubbed his hands over Tony's slowly blistering hands, Tony flinched a little at the sudden warmth on his lips, making them sting.

'Stay awake Tony, please you have to stay awake,' Steve said. After a couple of minutes Tony opened his mouth, finally coming up with something to say. His mind was working slow from the cold.

'I'll t-t-t-try,' Tony said stuttering as he shivered violently to try and raise his body temperature, it wasn't working. Even with Steve's body heat vibrating off him onto Tony, his body temperature was slowly slipping. His lips turned a deep purple blue colour.

'You know it's rude that you fell asleep will I was talking,' Steve mumbled, smiling when he heard a very faint chuckle come from the smaller man. He was trying to keep Tony awake.

'W-w-w-what-t wher-r-re... you talking-g-g about-t-t... again-n?' Tony asked, trying to smirk but that only cracked his lips. He really couldn't remember what Steve was rambling on about though. It scared Tony a little.

'Ireland... I think we should go there one day, just you and me...together. You know, get away from all the SHIELD business for a week or two,' Steve said. Tony frowned a little and then nodded slightly.

'I-I-I... like the i-idea of that-t-t,' Tony mumbled to Steve.

'Yeah, I've never been before and I would love to go,' Steve said. When Tony didn't answer him, Steve began to talk again.

'Don't worry Tony, SHIELD will be here soon ok,' Steve said as the snow started to fall thicker and quicker. Steve pulled his shield up from the ground and up it over his and Tony's heads trying to cover them from the snow. Tony frowned.

'W-w-w-w-who?' Tony stuttered. Steve looked at Tony in confusion.

'SHIELD, Tony. They're coming to rescue us. Remember Fury and Agent Coulson, Agent Hill or Buttercup. Tony please remember them,' Steve said. Tony blinked and gripped onto Steve's hands that were over his.

'B-b-black, with eye-p-p-patc-c-ch,' Tony mumbled, his breath being able to see it in the air. 'S-scare dude.'

'Yes that's them,' Steve said nodding, with a little smile. Tony slowly looked at him. His eyes unfocused on Steve. He looked like he was trying to remember something.

'Buttercup-p-p... She wan-t-t-ts to... kil-l-l-l me... right-t-t,' Tony mumbled so quietly.

'Yes, she did say there was a knife with your name on it back at SHIELD,' Steve said. Tony smiled so weakly, as his eye lids slowly fell.

'Tony?' Steve asked. Tony opened his eyes again.

'I-I-I... w-w-want to sleep-p-p,' Tony mumbled.

'I know you so but you have to stay awake,' Steve said.

Why did he have to stay awake? He could go to sleep if he wanted? This man didn't control him. Tony looked at Steve again, a frown on his face.

'S-S-Steve?' Tony asked. Steve nodded.

'Stay awake,' Steve said looking up at the sky for any sign of a light that showed the jet was coming.

Tony tried his best to stay awake, but the peaceful darkness was so welcoming. It invited Tony in. And he couldn't help but fall into it. His eye lids closed and he knew no more.

What did you think then guys. Good? Bad? There will be more Tony whump in a future chapter, i promise. but for now you will have to wait. Sorry.
