Growing old together. Growing together as people. Walking hand in hand into those golden years. Sharing life together. That was the dream, wasn't it?
Steve rubs the tears from his eyes, biting down onto his jumper's sleeve to muffle his sobs.
Everything and anything good was always taken from Steve. He didn't know why he had expected this to be any different.
Life was cruel.
He had watched as Tony's hair turned grey. He watched as Tony got sicker and sicker. As his body began to fail him. As age caught up to him.
And Steve? Hadn't aged a day.
The End
