"Where are you going?" Tony watched as his mother glided about the bedroom getting dressed, "You're not going to work are you?"
"Yes, baby, I am," the man replied, buttoning his shirt and brushing his hair back. He would have to make up that week, but with him doing all his paperwork that would be as easy as strutting into a meeting or two and giving a few words to the new arrivals.
"Why do you have to work?" The genius gave a cute little whine, "I have more han enough money for us to live four lifetimes."
"More like six," he nodded some, "But I don't just work because I have to. I enjoy doing what I do."
"Can I come?"
"Absolutely not," Rhodes scoffed, "Bucky, tell your daddy to fix you guys breakfast, I'm off."
"He's not here!" the elder man called from his seat in the kitchen.
"Where is he? The gym?" that was where he normally resided on rainy mornings.
"He went to work."
Rhodes stopped dead in his tracks, "He what!?"
Steve was stalking some men on the ship, his current assignment he had to work with Natasha. When the bearded man turned the corner he got a nice mouth full of boot and the other tasted sheild. Steve made quick work of them as several others ran over.
As he huffed and continued taking men down left and right he suddenly felt a vibration in his loins, "Uh, hello?" he panted, continuing to dodge.
"Where are you!?" Rhodes shouted into his ear.
"At work, the thing I do to make money and keep myself busy," he delievered a sturdy upper cut.
"You went to work and didn't say anything to me. I have to go to work and the kids have no babysitter!"
A roll backwards to avoid gunshots, "So get one."
"I can't get one on notice this short. Next time you could at least tell me you have to go back to work, Steve," the Col sighed in frustration.
"So what are you going to do? Leave the kids at home?"
"No, I'll have to take them with me to work today. And only today," he gave the gleeful Tony a look. "Tomorrow they need a babysitter, I trust you can handle that."
"Sure, yes, whatever you say. I really can't be on the phone at work. I'll call later, sorry, bye," he rushed the man off the phone and got back to the badies at hand, "Now, where were we?"
Tony smiled triumphantly as Rhodes walked him and Bucky towards the building, "Both of you behave. I have work to do and I can't be dragging you two back to this room every ten minutes," he unlocked the door to his office and set Tony's bag down on the floor.
Bucky looked about the office, it was sizeable, so apparently his mama had a lot of power in this field.
"What are we suppose to do?" the metal armed man sat to the couch.
"You can watch tv, play some of the games that you two brought, or color," he slapped hard at the back of Tony's hand, "Don't touch anything."
The man winced and rubbed where he got slapped, "What was that for?! I was gonna fix it?"
"It isn't broken," he set the calculator back on his desk, "Alright, Bucky, that door is the bathroom." The older brunette looked to it, "Alright, now both of you sit and eat your food," he handed them both their McD's breakfast bags. He normally was sparce about fast food but they had to eat and he was in too much of a rush to cook.
Tony bounced on the couch as he bit into his hashbrown, "How long are we going to be here?"
"Until we go home," Rhodes checked Tony's diaperbag again. Hopefully twenty pampers would be enough. It should be, but there were times where he ended up staying over night.
Bucky smiled and looked to the TV as he ate his food. It was nice to be out of the house, even though he really was just in another place to sit and watch TV.
After settling himself and the kids in Rhodes was off to his first meeting of the day. He, of course, made sure to tell the kids not to fool around and to stay in his office. Hopefully they would heed his commands, but with children one never knows.
"So what is he again?" Bucky broke the concentration of the cartoons he and his brother were enjoying.
"Well he was a pilot, and technically still is, but his official title is Lutienet Colonel," Tony rocked some as he sucked his paci.
"So is this an air force?"
"Pretty much."
The man rubbed his chin with his metal hand. He was eager to explore it, sounded fun, "Interesting," he stood and began towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Tony sighed.
"Just looking about," he peeked his head out of the door.
"Mama said to stay here and wait. Asides, he's gonna be back soon."
"Well I just wanna see what's out there, I'll be right back," he assured his younger brother.
The genius scoffed and went into Rhodes' desk, pulling out a sucker, "No you wont."
Bucky started to say something but saw the candy and walked over, "I want one."
