Steve laughed as they were flown into Tony's bedroom. "That's very subtle, Tony."

Tony dropped Steve onto the bed, and smiled back a winning smile. "I'll be right back."

It was a mere minute or so before Tony returned, devoid of the suit and still grinning. He plopped himself onto the bed, to lie next to Steve, and laughed. "I have no idea what this 'subtlety' idea is. It just never has use for me."

Steve laughed, and moved closer to Tony. A more serious tone brushed over his features as he started to speak. "That means I can cut to the chase. I've been watching you this whole time, through every word and tear…"

Tony smiled. "Steve, I should have told you myself. I am sorry you had to find out the way you did…"

Steve caught Tony by surprise with a heated kiss. Steve positioned himself over Tony, and grinned as he pulled away. "Will you please stop apologizing? And, don't cry or hate yourself either. I am right here, and I love you back. I know you couldn't hear me then, but please just listen now."

Tony smiled wider than he ever had. "You really were there that whole time? Wait a tic…you were trying to get through to me?" Steve smiled weakly, and nodded.

Tony kissed Steve fiercely, and flipped them over. When he let loose for breath, he smiled at his super soldier. "I love you, Steve."

"I love you too, Tony. And, thank God you don't believe in subtlety." Steve said with a mischievous grin.

Tony raised an eyebrow. "Oh and why is that?"

Steve didn't answer with words, but with his actions. He kissed Tony fiercely, and flipped them over once more. They ripped away at one another's clothes, until they were all gone.

Tony laughed softly as Steve kissed from his lips, to his shoulder, down his chest. He stopped laughing, and gasped as Steve took his member past his lips. Tony writhed and moaned underneath Steve, trying his dearest not to be finished all of this at that moment.

When Tony pulled Steve up, Steve had a wide grin on his face. Tony looked to him with wide eyes. "That's the first time you have done that?"

"Absolutely, it is." Steve said with joy prevalent in his tone.

"Steve, how is that even plausible?" Tony asked playfully.

Steve shrugged. "Well, you did say I was…what was the word, 'perfect'?

Tony flushed a deep red. "Why, yes, I believe that might have been the word. Care to prove my statement even more?"

"Gladly," Steve said with a huge grin on his face.

Steve rolled off Tony and put his fingers between his lips, before he started preparing himself.

"Fuck, Steve," Tony said breathlessly. Clearly fully aroused once more, Tony sprung on top of Steve and replaced his lover's fingers with his own. Steve writhed underneath him, smiling deviously. It was obviously his plan, which had obviously worked.

Once Steve was fully prepared, he smiled up at Tony. "Can you, please?"

Tony looked confused for a moment, before considering his last words and having a gentle laugh. "Yes, Steve, yes I can."

Tony fumbled in the bedside drawer until he found some lube, and slicked himself up for an amount of time that Steve was deeming too slowly. "Now, preferably…"

Tony laughed, and did as he was told. He lined up his member with Steve's entrance, and slid inside none-too-gently. Not that Steve seemed to mind. Steve canted up his hips, in a silent plea for more movement. Tony already could tell how much of an advantage Steve's ability to quick-heal would give them in this way.

Steve smirked as Tony started off slowly, in a way that was clearly meant to tell Steve without words that it wasn't just sex…it was making love. Steve laughed between moans, and leaned up to whisper in Tony's ear. "You don't have to be completely sentimental."

Tony smiled down at Steve. "I want to savor this. Additionally, I want for you to do the same."

Steve flushed gently, unsure if he should say what he was thinking. Would it ruin the moment to say 'dear God, just fuck me harder'?

Tony looked down at Steve, worried at the unsure nature in Steve's eyes. "Is something wrong?"

"No, yes, I…do you always go this gentle?" Steve asked lightly.

"Not in particular, I mean," Tony then smirked, understanding, "are you trying to subtly ask me to not be so gentle?"

Steve nodded, flushing deeper. He moaned loudly as Tony began thrusting into him harder and faster. "Thank God, Steve. I mean, gentle is good. But, oh God, I didn't know how long I could restrain myself from letting loose like this."

Steve laughed in relief. Before, evidently, moaning so loudly he was glad they were the only ones present in Stark towers. Steve didn't understand why it suddenly was feeling so good, but Tony kept himself angled properly with the realization he was slamming into Steve's prostate. It was happening for a while longer before Steve spoke up.

"Tony, I don't think I can last any…" Steve said, before releasing his load onto Tony's chest. Tony laughed gently, before too peaking in pleasure and releasing his load into Steve.

Once they were both done their release, Tony pulled out and lied down beside Steve. He laughed softly as Steve clambered over to rest cuddling to Tony's chest.

"What now?" Tony asked softly.

Steve smiled. "Now, you're mine, I hope. In any way you will have me. You are mine, and I am yours. And, dear God I hope that didn't sound too cheesy."

"Well, it's not as cheesy as I am about to sound…" Tony said slowly.

Steve raised an eyebrow, and kept a wide smile on his face. "Go on. I happen to like cheese."

"I've wanted you for a long time. Hell, I've loved you for a long time Steve. And, now that I know you've loved me all this time too…I have a proposition for you. Please, Steve Rogers, do me the honor of agreeing to marry me." Tony said sweetly, a nervous flush rising onto his face.

Steve kissed Tony once tenderly, and pulled away with a smile. "Of course I will. Yes, Tony, I will marry you."

Tony smirked. "I would demand it to be this instant, but I think we have to wait if we'd like our friends to attend."

Steve shrugged. "We do have some things to fix up first. A meeting about the registration act, a handful of funeral processions…then we can announce our engagement."

Tony smiled more gently. "At least they can know we're together."

"Finally, we can be together Tony." Steve said gently. He kissed Tony gently, before cuddling back onto his chest. "I love you, Tony."

Tony smiled as he watched Steve fall into a gentle sleep on his chest. It was great that he could finally sleep, and that things could finally work out for them, and that Steve was his fiancé. Before he too fell asleep, he whispered few words to Steve. "I will always love you Steve. Always."
