"Tony was perched on a bar stool sweating slightly from nerves but still grinning with excitment as he was waiting for his date. His friend had set him up with tall blond beauty as Bucky described him. It was a strange feeling, sitting wating for a blined date, it was Tony's first as far as he could remeber.
Tony's train of thought was broken when a tall blond man sat on the stool next to him and looked at him with a calm friendly smile and pale blue eyes that seemed to reasure him easily, that made Tony stop for a second. Just before you could say Tony was staring , the man began to talk.
"I take it your Tony then?" He said, smug smile playing on his face. Tony grinned mischieviously and nodded while downing the last of his drink. Tony turned toward the mistery man but just as his lips parted the other man began to talk again... "look im not actually here to go on a date."
"S-so why, em why are you here?" Did I just stuter?, fuck. Tony groaned mentally. The other man took a sip of his fresh drink befor clearing his throaght and starting, "Well the thing his, my friend that called you, Buckie, he didnt tell me about this till this morning and the thing is, well i dont really want to date men." Tony thought about this for a moment before he asked the man, "Sooo your not gay then?" The other man blushed, which just made Tony start to like him more, befor he took a deep breath and replied, "Well, im not really sure, see the reason my friend called you was because he got me drunk and I had mentioned to him that Iv been starting to focus on guys lately more than girls."
The man just looked into the bottom of his drink as he panicked, 'oh shit, why the fuck did you say so much, he doesnt even no my name yet'. Tony just stared into space for a moment thinking about what to say, he started to get confused and settled for something simple, "Ok, so em, well whats your name?" Tony tried to look sympathetic as he watched him turn his head to face him. "Steve, my names Steve, sorry about that, iv been panicking about this all day and..."
Tony smiled reasuringly at Steve, "look its fine, Steve, I know what its like to grow up straight and then start to question yourself." Tony took a sip from his fresh drink befor continuing, "dont take this as any pressure but" He started to write something down on a napkin, "Here is my number, now im not saying that we should go on a date but if you need someone to talk to then feel free to give me a call anytime." Tony smiled softly and slid the napkin over to steve who had been silent for a while. He folded the napkin and put it in his pocket befor he looked at Tony. "Thanks, I might give you a call in a few days."
Steve was too nervous to sit and talk to Tony, as much as he wanted to, he did like Tony. Thats why he couldnt get that stupid smile off his face when he first came in, he made steve feel safe for once, he didnt know him well but he knew he could trust him.
