"What happened?"
"He's been working on the roof since this morning. Think he was fixing his garden and planting new seeds." Wanda explained over Steve's shoulder.
Bruce's fingers are at the neck, checking for the unconscious man's pulse. It slow and steady, its not bad actually.
"Banner, I can take him downstairs if it'll be easier for you? I know your knee's been bad.. and it'll get him out of the sun." It was a suggestion and Steve wasn't wrong so Banner nodded and got back up.
"Good idea, got to get him to cool off." Wanda helped Steve get the unconscious man up and onto his arms then they both made their way towards the elevator, Bruce closely following.
In the elevator Bruce asked Jarvis what was going on, turns out the man was low on iron and a bit dehydrated.
"He takes iron pills." Steve stated. Minutes passed, the unconscious much smaller form than Steve's was now on the couch. Stripped on his shirt and pants, covered in a light sheet with ice packs between his thighs near his groin, under armpit and on the sides of his neck in case he was a victim of a heatstroke. It looked to be.
"He ran out two days ago, I remember him saying he was going to pick it up this morning." Wanda was running a cool washcloth against the man's flushed skin. Wiping at his chest.
"Jarvis?" Asked the Captain
"Negative Captain, nothing picked up today for Mr Stark."
Everyone collectively sighed, it was kind of ironic. Bruce did quick work and set up some fluids. Tony came around less than ten minutes later, immediately annoyed with all the eyes on him which were only three people. He fussed, pushed the ice packs away then took them back to hug them to his face and head.
"I'm going to go pick up your refill and you're going to take them when I come back." Steve simply stated to Stark, there was no sting in his words. He just wanted Tony to hear that he was worried.
Wanda helped Bruce pack up, she would be staying with Tony while Bruce had to leave for a meeting. He'll check in by phone.
"Kay dad." Was all Tony could muster. He had some water with Wanda's help before he drifted off to sleep. Wanda seemed really upset, so Steve gave her a half hug and told her he was okay and he appreciates her watching over him while he goes to pick up his refill.
"I know, I just never seen someone pass out from the sun." She smiled a little, explaining why she worried.
"It happens a lot, actually. It's happened more than a dozen of times to me.."
Steve scratched the back of his head, embarrassment clear on his face.
"You didn't learn the first time?"
She was serious, head tilted and everything. Her eyes gazing into his blue ones.
"I did.. but.. I didn't. I always thought I could push a little more, you know?"
Pre-serum Steve was feisty, he thought he was capable of everything. Just a little longer.
"Does it still happen?" She wondered, looking away from Steve to Tony. Carefully wiping the wet cloth at his forehead and down his temple.
"Rarely, but.. yes. Usually on one of our longer missions and cleanup that takes days. The team's on my behind because they know I don't take breaks and end up passing out a few or more days in. I guess I'm stubborn like that and a little bit of a hypocrite. I tell them constantly to take breaks. Its rare though." Steve pressed his cheek to the top of her head and gave her another hug before standing.
"I'll be back soon. Want me to pick you up something while I'm out? Starbucks is on the way."
Her face lit up, she nodded and Steve smiled back in return.
"I WANT A CARAMEL FRAPPUCCINO. Thank you for asking." Tony almost screamed it, scaring Wanda out of her skin.
"Jesus.. Tony. Yes, sure, go back to sleep."
With a shake of his head but smile on his face, Steve made his way to the elevator.
Tony was something.
That's another chapter!
Review if you like it.
Just so y'll know, I suck at keeping things short so I have many MANY stories that I end up not being able to add here because it went past 500-700 words. Its supposed to be 500 or less or around 500. As you see I have already almost 100% failed at keeping it around there so far hehe.
