IT'S WEDDING TIME! I hope you're all ready. Just a quick note, when you see this (WIWGTSYS) tap out if you want. That's where the honeymoon smut starts. It ends when you see (WIWGTSYS) again. Other than that, enjoy the chapter and our babies getting married! I'll see you at the end.
One thing that Tony and James quickly realized was that getting engaged was the easy part. Planning the wedding was a whole different story. Truth be told, neither James nor Tony wanted anything extravagant. Neither wanted any fancy venue or dinner or reception. If Tony and James had their way they would just have a simple ceremony and then eat dinner with all their friends. Honestly, they really cared about was the honeymoon. They had decided on that way before they finalized anything for the wedding.
Pepper had a bit of a heavy hand in planning the wedding. She kept Tony and James's requests in mind but also made it so that it was a bit more formal. They would be having the wedding at the compound in the ballroom they had there. It would be decorated in gold and silver to match both James and Tony. There would be pictures and a sit-down dinner and dance. But the wedding would be small. Neither of them really had that many friends. But the important part was that they were getting married.
Getting married gave Tony and James the perfect excuse to up their usual amount of PDA around the compound. They thought it was funny when Steve got all flustered and Clint looked put off. Peter was around a whole lot more. He'd come over most weekends when he wasn't in school so he could learn new things with Tony. Between James and Peter, they had Tony smiling and laughing more. It made the wedding planning way less stressful.
There where a couple of things Tony and James knew for sure going into their wedding planning. The first thing was that they wanted Pepper to officiate. She was perfect for the job and she took it gracefully. The second thing was that they wanted their wedding to be in December. Both Tony and James wanted to reclaim the month and turn it into something memorable instead of a horrible memory. It was their way of letting go of the past and looking towards the future.
So, on December 14th, 2017, Tony and James got married.
Neither were really stressed. They both wanted this so bad and they knew that the other one did as well. Rhodey and Peter helped Tony get ready while Steve did the same of James. James was a ball of excitement. He was smiling and happy and it seemed to infect everyone around him. Tony, on the other hand, was a little bit nervous. Rhodey and Peter had to calm him down a bit. He wasn't worried about James getting cold feet, he was just worried that Steve or someone else would ruin the whole thing.
Luckily that didn't happen.
As James stood nervously at the altar with Pepper, all dressed in his nice new black suit, he took some time to think. He couldn't believe that he was actually getting married. Years ago he didn't even think anything like this was possible. But here he was, all dressed up and getting married to the love of his life.
As he waited, James took a look at everyone in attendance. Their team was there, that was a given. Same with Happy, Peter, and May. Laura Barton was also there with the mini agents as well as Cassie Lang who sat between Hope and Scott. Shuri and King T'Challa were also there. They were friends and were more than happy to attend the wedding. It wasn't a big wedding by any means, but it was perfect for them.
James got his first good look at Tony as the music started and Rhodey lead him down the aisle. Tony was wearing a matching suit to James's, but he looked absolutely radiant. His hair was all fluffy and his eyes were shining along with his smile. He looked perfect. Plus, Tony wasn't wearing his lifts so not only was he beautiful, but Tony was also just the perfect height for James to just scoop up and protect.
When Tony arrived at the altar James took his hands in his and smiled at his soon to be husband. The rest of the world seemed to melt away and all the remained was their love.
"Dearly beloved," began Pepper, "We are gathered here today to join in the union of James Barnes and Anthony Stark. Now, both of them have made my job infinitely easier and have written their own vows. So James, if you will."
James looked down at where his and Tony's hands were joined before he looked back up with a smile and began talking.
"Tony, I will always be grateful I met you. You are the love of my life. You're my soulmate. And as my soulmate, I promise that I'll do whatever it takes to keep you and our future safe. I promise you that I'll always try my best to be there for you. I promise to stay by your side through everything life decides to throw at us. I will always keep my promises. So here I am, giving you all my words to say that I love you. I love you Tony, and I can't wait to spend forever with you." James had a few unshed tears in his eyes as he spoke. He meant every word. He was promising Tony forever and he wanted to be sure that's what they got.
"James," started Tony. His voice was already cracking, "I don't know where I'd be if I didn't have you in my life. You're my rock. You keep the monsters away. You helped pull me out of a very dark place. My life would be a disaster without you. Now, I may not believe in soulmates, but even I can tell that the universe wants us to be together. And I can promise you that I'm never letting you go. I don't think I could ever be happier. I love you so much James, and I promise to love you forever and always."
There where tears streaming down Tony's face as he finished. This was a day he never thought he would get, but here he was. Tony was getting married to the love of his life. He was allowed to cry if he wanted to. Plus he wasn't the only one crying. Rhodey and Peter had tears in their eyes as well.
"Now James, if you'll repeat after me." Instructed Pepper. "I, James Bucannon Barnes."
"I, James Bucannon Barnes."
"Take thee, Anthony Edward Stark."
"Take thee, Anthony Edward Stark." James squeezed Tony's hands in his and smiled.
"As my lawfully wedded husband."
"As my lawfully wedded husband."
"In sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, forever and always."
"In sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, forever and always." James was choking up a bit. At that point, there wasn't really a dry eye in the room.
"With this ring, I wed thee."
"With this ring… I wed thee."
And so James slid a beautiful vibranium ring onto Tony's left hand. They'd gotten the rings from Shuri as a present. James smiled as the ring fell into place. It was perfect. Soon, Tony would be his forever, and he couldn't wait to share his life with the beautiful man in front of him.
"Now Tony, repeat after me. I, Anthony Edward Stark."
"I, Anthony Edward Stark."
"Take thee, James Bucannon Barnes."
"Take thee, James Bucannon Barnes.
"As my lawfully wedded husband."
"As my lawfully wedded husband." Tony's voice was cracking as even more tears slid down his cheeks. They were most certainly tears of joy.
"In sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, forever and always."
"In sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, forever and always."
"With this ring, I wed thee."
"With this ring, I wed thee."
Tony took his ring and slid it onto James's left hand. Right into a little groove he had carved into the metal to hold the ring. It shone against the metal of James's hand and both men became even more giddy with excitement. They were so close they could taste it.
"By the power vested in me by the state of New York, I now pronounce you husband and husband. You may now kiss!" exclaimed Pepper.
James hands slid out of Tony's and fell to his hips to pull his now-husband closer. Tony's hands snaked around his neck and the two shared their first kiss as a married couple. It was magical. It was like fireworks and a calm spring day all at once. They both smiled as they kissed. They did it. They were married and so stupidly in love that everything else paled in comparison. As they broke apart they leant their foreheads together and smiled. Everything was perfect.
"Now I introduce to you James and Tony Stark-Barnes!" Announced Pepper and everyone in attendance cheered.
The newly married couple received a round of congratulations from everyone. Even Wanda and Clint came up to give their blessing. Wanda had been getting better at realizing that Tony wasn't at fault for everything that went wrong and she wanted to make it up to them, one small act at a time. Clint, after having received a threat of divorce from Laura, had been acting a whole lot nicer to Tony. It was small steps but still steps in the right direction.
Afterwards, Tony, James, Peter, Rhodey, Pepper, Happy, and Steve left to go take pictures. They would take others with the team later, but these ones were just for family. Tony and James were all smiles. They couldn't believe that they were finally married. It was a dream come true. So far, everything about their day was perfect. The ceremony was perfect, the pictures were perfect even with them taking more than a few silly ones, the dinner and dance was going to be perfect, and they knew that the honeymoon they had planned was going to be perfect.
After the pictures were done, they all met back up for the reception. They had a nice sit-down dinner and the kids got to run around and play with bubbles. Tony being Tony, made sure that they had a massive dessert bar. Everybody was appreciative of that.
Tony and James's first dance as a married couple was magical. Neither man really knew what song to pick so they left it up to Peter who picked some slow song that neither knew the name of but thought it worked perfectly. James held Tony close and Tony rested his head on his shoulder. As they danced the rest of the world melted away, leaving the newlyweds in their only little bubble of bliss. There was only love there.
The rest of the night was a motherfucking party in only the way the Avengers could have one. There was dancing, booze for those who drank, and at one point Clint and Sam started belting out Queen songs. Everyone was smiling and having a great time. There was no fighting and by some miracle, everyone was getting along.
As the night began to wind down, Tony and James said goodbye to their friends and family and got ready to drive to the airport to leave for their honeymoon. Tony was taking James on his private jet to his villa in Italy in the town his mother was from. It was secluded and would be way warmer than the current snowfall in New York. They would be back in time to celebrate Christmas with the other, but for now, this was going to be time just for them.
The whole plane ride Tony and James just curled up together and cuddled. They slept a fair bit too. Their wedding had gone late into the night and sleep was important. James knew that Tony would need the energy for the *activities* he had planned once they landed and got to the villa. James couldn't wait to get Tony out of his suit and into their bedroom, but for now, he was content to just hold Tony close and revel in their love. Tony was perfect, and James couldn't believe that he was his forever. Their wedding had been magical, and everything was perfect.
When they finally touched down in Rome, Tony picked up the car and the two of them drove down to the town of Mondello. It was a beautiful coastal town. According to Tony, his grandparents had had a fishery there that Tony used to visit when his mother took him when he was little. They arrived just in time for dinner. They dropped their bags off at the villa and got changed into some more comfortable clothing before they set off to one of the many little restaurants in the town. They ate and laughed, but James couldn't help but undress Tony with his eyes every time he smiled. It was time to head back home for sure.

The second that James and Tony returned to the villa James was attacking Tony with his mouth. His metal hand slid under Tony's shirt and up his back and he was rewarded with a sweet little sigh from Tony. That spurred James into action. He scooped a now giggling Tony into his arms and carried his husband over the threshold of their bedroom. Let it be known that James was always the romantic type.
James placed Tony down on the bed with tender touches as the two stripped out of their clothes. James climbed back onto the bed and covered Tony with his whole body as they kissed. James held Tony's left hand in his and felt a wave of possessiveness as he felt the ring on his finger. Tony was his and nobody else's.
As the kissing became more sensual, James reached under the pillows for the bottle of lube he'd placed there earlier. He wanted to be prepared so they wouldn't waste time digging through their suitcases looking for it.
James gently but firmly coaxed Tony's legs apart so he could take a good long look at his beautiful ass. Tony had a bit of a bubble butt and James absolutely loved to teas it. But tonight wasn't a night for teasing. This was a night for passion.
James trailed kisses down Tony's torso and over his legs as he squeezed a generous amount of lube onto his fingers. He wanted to prep Tony properly to avoid any pain. James would never ever cause Tony any pain. Not intentionally.
James circled a finger around Tony's rim and smiled as his husband moaned. They shared hurried kisses as James gently moved his finger in and out of Tony's body. One finger soon became three as Tony's body softened under James care. Both men were moaning each other's names and panting as they got ready to join with the other.
"I want to ride you. James, please…" breathed out Tony between frantic kisses. And well, James really couldn't argue.
He flipped the two of them over so that Tony was sitting on James lap while James lay on his back. It didn't take long before Tony was lowering himself onto James's length. The two moaned in unison as James's hands went to grip Tony's hips while Tony's ran over James's chest.
They stayed joined together, sharing laboured breathes as they adjusted to the overwhelming sensations. After a few moments, Tony began to move. At first, it was slow, almost teasing as they both got their rhythm. Once they found it, it was almost animalistic. Tony was letting out load moans every time James thrust in just right and James thought he was going to lose his mind.
"God James. So good. So good." Moaned out Tony as he fell forward and sped up a bit. James responded by pulling Tony into a sloppy kiss and manhandling Tony's hips with renewed passion. James could feel himself getting close, but he wanted to makes sure Tony came first. He always loved the sensation of Tony coming around his length.
"Jamie, Jamie! I'm gonna…!" was all Tony got out before his vision whited out with a strangled cry.
James sped up his thrusts, chasing his own release. It didn't take long before he reached his peak. It only took a matter of seconds before James was spilling into Tony. He bit down onto Tony's shoulder. Not enough to break the skin, but enough to leave a bruise.
From there James gently rolled Tony onto his back. His eyes were still unfocused and his limbs felt like jelly, so James took it upon himself to clean the two of them up and pull Tony into a soft embrace. Tony was really out of it, so James just cuddled his husband close and enjoyed the feelings of love that seemed to permeate the room.
The two drifted off to sleep with Tony's head pillowed on James's chest and James feeling more loved then he had in the past 70 years

The rest of the honeymoon was perfect just as they thought. Tony and James spent their days walking around the town and lazing around on the beach. Their days were calm while their nights were filled with passion. James could honestly say that he'd died and gone to heaven. He just couldn't believe his luck in marrying Tony.
Neither James nor Tony could really believe their luck. For Tony, it was because he hadn't expected to live this long in his self-perceived pathetic life to even see this day. His life had improved immensely now that James was in it and Tony was starting to gain some confidence in himself. It made him smile to think of all the good things that had happened. And Tony now knew that he deserved those good things, all thanks to James.
James, on the other hand, was so happy that he had survived 70 years of HYDRA to make it to Tony. It made all the torture and brainwashing worth it. He'd made it to Tony and was making the most of his new life. Things were finally working out for the two, and they couldn't wait to see what kind of surprises the future would hold.
Yay! Our babies are married and happy. But unfortunately not for long. I think you guys all know what movie is coming up. I promise it won't be as bad as the real thing and I can't wait for you to see how I've changed it. Just a forewarning, the next two chapters are graphic. I have a feeling you can guess why. I'll be seeing you soon. -Shadows.
