It's About Damn Time!
(Iris POV)
I am having my baby shower, Maria planned the whole thing. Natasha,Renee, Amber and a few other of my co-workers from the bar and the facility are knew we had chosen Minnie Mouse as her theme so I got a lot of Minnie Mouse clothes, carseat/stroller, toys and etc, in fact the party was Minnie Mouse themed. I could tell Natasha was a little uncomfortable being here at first, I got the impression pretty quickly that she hadn't been to many baby showers, I think it was difficult for her to do anything normal and I could relate to that, I hadn't been to many myself, I didn't even know we played so many baby games and that's when we all loosened up and had a great time.
As the party is ending and most of the guests had already left I asked Maria if she could grab me a sweater from my room, I'm freezing. I'm starting to clean up from opening the gifts but Natasha quickly takes the wrapping paper out of my hands. "Don't you dare lift a finger, we will do it." She demands, I give he ran appreciative smile.
Maria comes back downstairs and I see she is holding my sweater and something else."Iris, what happened to your lingerie I got you?" She holds up the two ripped pieces, "I found it in your drawer."
"...It was an accident." I obviously lied, they all saw right through it,"I was trying to fix it but it just has been working out."
"You weren't kidding about Steve." She half joked with a smirk. "Well, now I need to get you a new one...you know for when after the baby is born." She wiggles her eyebrows up and down.
Out of the blue I just start to sob! All my friends come right to me and has me sit back down. They are so concerned and confused, "Iris, what's wrong?" Amber asks.
"I'm never going to have sex again!" I sob.
"Of course you will." Natasha said as she pats my shoulder.
"No I'm not."
"I'm pretty sure Steve's going to want to have sex with you." She continues to try to cheer me up.
"No, we haven't had sex since before we found out about the baby. I have been so horny! God, anything he does turns me on and every time I throw myself at him he always makes up excuses and never sleeps with me. He's not attracted to me anymore. I'm just a big fat whale." I pout.
"That's not true." Maria strongly protests as she rubs my arm soothing me.
"Then why won't he sleep with me?" I ask.
"I don't know but there has to be a reasonable explanation for all of this." Renee chimes in.
"Natasha will you ask him for me?" I give her puppy dog eyes.
"What? No, why can't you do it? He's your husband."
"Because he's just going to tell me what I want to hear but he'll be more honest with you."
"He's never going to talk about it with me. Sure he talks about you all the time but never about your sex life...I don't want to know."
"Nat, please? I need to know." I beg.
"...I'll try."
"Thank you! Make sure you don't tell him I told you to ask because he again will just tell you what I want to hear."
"Fine." She rolls her eyes, this made me feel a lot better.
Natasha comes over the next day, I'm so excited to see what she found out. She made sure to come when she knew Steve wouldn't be here so he couldn't overhear us talking, I invite her in.
"So? Did he tell you?"
"No, he wouldn't tell me anything." She tells me, I give a big pout face.
"What? You couldn't get him to talk about anything?"
"No, I even tried to get Sam to talk to him alone, you know have guy talk but Sam said he still wouldn't say anything. I told you, he doesn't talk about your sex life."
"Why does he always have to be a gentleman!" I complain to myself.
"But I will say...I could tell there was something there though, he just can't lie to me, I always know when something is on his mind, again he wouldn't talk about it but I don't think it has anything to do with not being attracted to you."
"I wonder what it could be then...Nat, I feel like I am going crazy, it's all I think about! Good thing I can't leave the house, I'm afraid I would hallucinate and think every guy I see is Steve." I half joke.
"Well before you resort to attacking strangers how about the next time you have that urge don't let him stop you."
"What?" I respond.
"Don't let him get away, don't even let him talk. You have to make him see how much you want him."
"Believe me I have and he makes excuses."
"And like I said don't let him...don't even give him a chance...and don't be fooled by food."
"That's a good idea."
"You think you'll have the urge tonight?" She smirks with a raised eyebrow.
"Are you kidding me? I'm horny right now! I always have the urge whether he's here or not."
She giggles, "well, I better go because he'll be here soon and I don't want to witness you two together."We both chuckle, "thanks." I tell her.
Natasha soon leaves and she made it sound like he was going to be home soon but it's been two hours and the longer I wait the more irritated and horny I become. I can't take it anymore! I grab the phone and dial his beeper number and press 3. Only 10 minutes later Steve barges in the front door still wearing his Captain America uniform...he never wears his suit at home, he keeps it at the compound, so I never see him in it anymore. Damn he looks so good in it! Great, and here I didn't think I could get more horny!
"Iris...you okay?" He quickly calls out.
"Yes." I only can say as I am walking up to him.
"What's the matter? You pressed 3."
"You were taking way too long to get home." I bite my bottom lip before attacking his lips and shoving him against the door.
"Iris, your suppose to press 3 for emergencies only." He reminds me in between kisses.
"This is a emergency."
"And what would that be?" He asks as he makes us stop kissing.
"I am so horny...I need you..." I go back to his lips.
I pull him by his suit and drag him in front of the couch. I push him down and have him sit in the corner of the couch, that way he can't try to escape this time. I'm wearing a yellow and blue polka dot sundress, I hike it up so I am not sitting on it at all and straddle his lap, I'm on my knees and wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him again.
"Whoa Sweetheart, slow down." He breathes in between kisses.
"No." I don't stop.
"But...the baby...your suppose to take it easy..."
"I already talked to the doctor, it's perfectly safe, having sex won't hurt the baby at all and no the baby can't see anything." I never stop kissing him.
"Iris...I don't..." He is trying to say, I stop kissing him and force him to look at me with my hands on his face.
"Steve...I am 7 months pregnant, 7 months of not having sex and I am extremely horny...I need to have sex and I am going to have sex with you." I demand with conviction, I am unbuckling his pants.
"But..."
"Don't you want to make love to me?" I ask with the saddest face/eyes I could.
"Of course I do...it's just..."
"Honey...I need you, please make love to me." I whisper in his ear as I start kissing his neck, going for the area that I know is his sweet spot, "please." I repeat in his ear.
He finally gives up, he puts his hands on my face and brings my lips to his. I smile as I bring my dress up higher and I don't even bother with taking off my panties, I just move them aside as I put his shaft in myself. After the first thrust we pause for a few seconds, it felt so damn good I have to soak it in, I exhale from relief and begin to go slow since I am pregnant. As we are thrusting Steve will hold my belly and just rub it tenderly, I will lean back a little bit and hold onto his thighs to use a leverage, "oh yeah!" I groan with my eyes closed tightly.
Eventually Steve had me get up and he carries me bride style upstairs, I kiss him the whole way there. He lays down and I go on top of him and we thrust again. I take off my sundress and he gently is holding and softly stroking my hips and the sides of my belly. I put my hands on his chest to help keep myself sitting up, we continue to slowly make love.
I am laying on my side, resting my head on his shoulder, "God it's about damn time."
"Yeah..." He exhales.
"What took you so long?...I was thinking you weren't attracted to me anymore." I honestly speak out.
"What? Of course I am still attracted to you. I have never seen you look more beautiful." He strokes the side of my face.
"Then why wouldn't you make love me to? Why did you make up all those excuses?" I look at him.
"It was a couple things...I was scared of hurting the baby and you. And I thought if we slept together...well I was taking advantage of you..."
"What do you mean you taking advantage of me?" I ask him as I sit myself up a little bit.
"It's just...your pregnant and I know you have urges but I also know that your hormones are going all over the place and your vulnerable right now and it felt like sleeping with you if you were drunk or depressed and I couldn't do that to you or our baby." He sweetly explains.
"I guess I know what you mean...but you should already know that I don't need to be pregnant to want to sleep with you and I have sexual urges regardless." We both chuckle.
"I'm sorry if I made you feel like I wasn't attracted to you or make you feel bad, that wasn't my intention." He softly said stroking my hair.
"I know...and I understand." I give him a lite kiss, "and you know what? I love you even more for it." I smile.
"I love you too." He strokes my cheek and rubs my belly.
A Month Later
I am 8 months now, I am huge! It looks like I have a big basketball under my clothes. I stopped wearing pants, I either wear sundresses or overalls, they are the most comfortable. I'm laying on the bed eating ice cream right out of the carton, who needs a bowl? I am watching Steve pack, "You know what? I'm not going." He blurts out as he drops his clothes.
"What? Why?" I ask with my mouth full.
I am trying to sit up but can't,I bring my hand out for Steve to help me up, he does it so naturally as if he's been doing it forever. "I shouldn't be leaving you. I need to stay with you."
"Steve you have to go. The team needs you..."
"But you also need me."
"We still have a month left to go. This is your last mission...the last time you'll be Captain America...it's important."
"Yeah, but what about you? The doctor doesn't want you to be up on your feet too much."
"I'll be fine...I feel good! Tony said you guys were only going to begone for a few days and you weren't going to do anything too dangerous.I think I can manage until then."
"Okay...but your having someone stay here with you."
"Fine..." I say reluctantly.
"Iris, I mean it." He replies very sternly, "I don't want you here alone."
"God your hot when you controlling! (He keeps giving me a stern look) Okay,I'll ask the girls or Maria." I agree seriously so he knew I mean it...to ease his mind.
"You better...I will be back soon."
"Okay." I say as I give him a bite of my ice cream, he gives me a sweet smile as he took the bite.
"Thank you, I love you."
"I love you too." He puts both hands on the sides of my face and gives me a kiss. After he did that the baby moved, it makes me giggle because it tickled." I think she is going to miss you too." We both smile at each other, he bends over rubbing my belly. "Bye baby, I'll be back soon. Don't be too hard on your mom." He softly speaks as he gives my belly a kiss.
He stand up and gives me one last kiss. As soon as Steve left I grab my phone and call Maria, I am going to keep my promise."Hey." She answers happily, already knowing it was me.
"Hey, so Steve just left and he's being a worry wart again and doesn't want me here alone, do you mind coming and staying with me?" I ask her.
"Of course but only tonight, I can't tomorrow." She tells me.
"No worries, I am sure Renee or Amber can come." I reply.
"Okay, I'll be over in a little bit, do you need anything?"
"No, I'm good." I tell her.
"Okay, I will see you later, bye." Maria did indeed came over and stayed with me for the night, even though she didn't have to she chose to sleep in my room with me, I liked having the company and also that way I didn't have to shout for her if I needed something.
It's the next night and I am home alone, like she told me yesterday she couldn't come tonight but I wasn't too worried about but I knew Steve wouldn't be happy with me if he found out I was by myself so Amber and Renee said they would come later after their shift at the bar. I walk downstairs to grab a snack, I look in the freezer and I pout when I see I already ate all the ice cream...I have to settle for something else. I should have told Maria to grab me some more when she asked if I needed anything!
"Well...what should we have baby? Watermelon, strawberries or brownies?"The baby moves a little bit, "your right brownies it is." I grab a plate and inhale the brownies smell after I put it on the plate, yum the smell of chocolate!I begin to walk out of the kitchen and I suddenly drop my plate and it shatters on the ground and I immediately grab my belly and the countertop, I feel the most sharpest pain in my life and I instantly know what's wrong. "Oh no, not yet." I whisper.
Oh no she's early having the baby and she's all alone with Steve gone!
