I stared at him for a second before I kissed him back, was this real? Was Tony Stark showing some sort of affection to something? He slipped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer completely cutting off my train of thought. We kissed for what seemed like forever, until the sound of the bell made us jump apart, I smiled at him slightly thankful that now our feelings for each other were out in the open, I was finally starting to be sure of my feelings, I liked boys and Tony Stark was the boy I had eyes for right now, and hopefully for the rest of my life. He quickly went back to picking up litter, I looked slightly confused at him, he didn't even seem to be acknowledging what had just happened!

"We're going to have to talk about that aren't we Cap." He spoke after I'd stared at him for a minute or two. "I'm sure you're a great guy and all, well duh you're Captain America but I can't be in a relationship that's you know, in the public eye right now." I frowned slightly, trying to work out what he was telling me.
"You want me-us, you want us to be a secret? Or you want there to be no us at all?" I could feel the tears stinging my eyes, my first kiss had been with someone who wasn't sure they wanted to be with me and if they did they didn't want it to be public.
"I want us to be a secret Steve... But only until I can figure out how I tell people. Don't think that this makes my feelings for you any weaker. Please don't think that. It's just I have a reputation..."

"I don't care! I don't care what people think Tony. I just want to be with you" I felt my voice shaking as the tears continued to threaten.
"Stop screaming about it in public." He hissed at me, I looked down slightly. He sighed and took my hand and stroked it lightly, "I'm just asking that you give me time to sort things out, please Steve. We'll be together and soon it'll be public I swear." I looked at him, his expression was soft now and his eyes had a pleading look in them. I nodded slowly, realising that a secret relationship with ton was better than no relationship with him. He removed his hand quickly and looked towards the doors, I span around and saw Tasha heading towards us, specifically Tony. Her eyes were practically flashing red with anger, I looked back at Tony and saw he'd gone the same colour he had that day the Hulk had made an appearance. He threw his trash bag on the floor and made a break for it, Tasha managed to catch him easily, diving on him and pinning him down.
"How fucking dare you Stark!" She snarled, almost spitting in Tony's face, I should've helped him but in all honesty he probably deserved this after he read Tasha's private note. "You not only shared my private business with the whole class but you got a sweet guy like Steve in trouble!" Tony stared open mouthed at her, it was taking him a long time to think of a reply to her.
"So you don't just fancy Clit –"
"Clint."
"You don't just fancy Clit, you like Stevie too? Greedy girl aren't we Tasha." There was a sickening crunch as she head butted him, Clint was running over to stop her but it was too late. He pulled her off Tony, who was groaning and owing on the floor, she was trying her best to get back at him.
"Tasha! Calm down." He pleaded, struggling to hold her arms.
"SOMEONE NEEDS TO TEACH HIM THAT HE DOESN'T GET SPECIAL TREATMENT HERE!"
"I think he learnt that just now when you broke his nose! Now stop it!" He started to drag her away, hoping that would calm her down. I watched him get her inside then walked to Tony, his nose was bleeding and he was looking at me pathetically.
"C'mon, let's get you up and the medical tent." I helped him up and he started smirking, even though his eyes were watering.
"You're showing your age you know."
"Excuse me?"
"Medical tent, you mean the medical unit." I rolled my eyes and led him in the right direction, trying to think of an excuse to tell Fury when we were eventually asked about this.


We'd managed to last 3 hours without having to speak to Fury and when he finally caught up with us, he was in no mood to hear our explanations. Not mine, Tasha's or Tony's. He called all 6 of us into the office and we sat in front of his desk.
"You six are going to be trouble. I don't really remember what I was thinking when I decided on putting such a dysfunctional bunch of so-called heroes in one team! I knew there'd be trouble amongst the teams here but good lord! You six are being ridiculous! If you don't pull some magical shit tomorrow and absoulely knock my socks off at the training event tomorrow then I may have to reconsider some of your positions here! Mr Stark. Miss Romanoff." His eye darted between us all eventually landing on Thor who was trying to get comfortable in the chair. "Now you six get out of my sight. I'm serious, if I don't see results tomorrow. That's it for the Avengers, I'll find a new leading team."
"We're your leading team?" Tony scoffed. I wanted to kick him before he said something to get us in even worse trouble.
"You are Mr Stark. I suggest you stop talking if you want it to remain that way. Now go." We all got up and rushed out.

I sighed as we did, I'd just started feeling comfortable in this team and now there was a chance it could be taken away from me.
