So I know I said that it would be a one shot, but by demand, it has turned into a two shot and possibly an ongoing story, so who knows.
Tony sighed as his head hit the bed as he sighed quietly. It had been almost a month since he'd seen the Fox, and he wished he could get the blonde man out of his mind. He closed his eyes and all he could think of was Steve. He opened his eyes again and sat up as he sighed. He had to stop thinking of the man. It wasn't like he would ever see him again. Steve was probably long gone by now, off with his crown and his first kiss.
There was a knock on the door, and he stood up from his bed. "Who is it?" He called out, not moving until they presented themselves. "Prince Anthony, the King is asking to see you." He sighed quietly and opened the door.
"Thank you, Virginia." He said to the maid, smiling. She bowed her head. "Anything for the Prince." He sighed quietly, remembering that Steve called him Princess. It should be a sign of disrespect. He was a Prince that deserved much more respect than what the Fox gave him, and yet he found himself thinking of him constantly, like A woman yearning for her lover.
He snapped out of his thoughts and followed the Maid to his father's chambers. He stayed quiet as he pulled over his thoughts, and bit his lip as they ce up to the door. He thanked the maid and knocked on the door softly. "My Lord?" He asked quietly. He heard a muffled 'Come in' And set his jaw, going into the chambers.
He looked around the small chamber and set his eyes on the King. "You called me, father?" He asked politely. Howard looked up and put the pen down, intertwining his hands together. "You are aware of the ball that is tonight, correct?"
Tony sighed softly, nodding. "Of course, father." Howard smiled. "Perfect. We have recently acquired a new knight in the months your crown was stolen. He said that he managed to salvage it. He will be arriving in a few moments and I want you to know that he will be your personal knight." Tony furrowed his eyebrows.
A personal knight? He could take care of himself. Granted, he got his crown stolen and also his first kiss stolen, but that was a street fox that he never expected.
Okay, maybe he could use a knight, but he would never admit to that. He crossed his arms. "Father, pardon my disrespect, but I do not need a guard." Howard rose an eyebrow at him. "Are you being serious, Anthony?"
Tony nodded. "Why would I not be?" The door opened and he heard a chuckle from a voice he knew and felt his eyes widen.
"You need all the protecting you can get, Prince Anthony." He felt his hope drop slightly and turned around. It was Steve. He cleared his throat and crossed his arms. "Oh? And what makes you think I need one?"
Steve chuckled softly, shaking his head. "If I do recall, your crown was stolen, wasn't it?" Tony blushed softly, his eyes narrowing and his lips pursing. "So?"
Steve smirked at him. "You're the definition of a damsel in distress, sweetheart." Tony was taken back, and turned around. "No." He said, before he walked out of the room. Howard sighed and motioned for Steve to follow him.
Steve jogged up to Tony, grabbing his arm and pulling him into a chamber. Tony yelped, before he yanked his hand out of Steve's grasp and glared at him. "Why are you here? I thought you were long gone." He growled. He saw Steve raise a hand up and tensed, until he felt Steve cup his face, rubbing his cheek with his thumb softly.
Steve pulled Tony close to him. Tony watched him carefully, his glare losing its heat. Steve leaned in close to him. "I'm here because I missed you, Princess." Tony felt his eyes shine and they went half lidded. "Steve?" He whispered.
Steve closed the space in between them and kissed him. Tony whimpered softly, before he wrapped his arms around Steve's neck.
Steve smirked in the kiss, pulling Tony closer to him. Tony pulled away from the kiss enough to speak to him. "You're a knight?" Steve chuckled. "Foxes can be knights too, Princess." Tony rolled his eyes and kissed Steve's cheek.
"Alright, Steve." Steve smiled, before he went serious. "I've had training in the years before you and I met, and I want you to understand that you need a knight, and I want to be that knight for you." Tony looked down, before he sighed.
"You can get hurt..." Steve rubbed his thumb softly on Tony's cheek. "And you can get hurt without me. Please, Princess. Let me do this." Tony looked away for a moment before he sighed.
"Okay, fine. You can be my knight." He said quietly. Steve smiled and kissed his cheek. "I've been waiting for the moment to he with you again for a long time. Now I'm not gonna let you go." He pulled out the crown he'd stolen from Tony and put it on his hair, removing the replacement. Tony smiled softly.
"I'm not letting you go either. Now come on. We've got a ball to prepare for." Steve opened the chamber door and bowed. "After you, Princess." Tony rolled his eyes fondly and walked out, Steve trailing behind with the crown in his hand.
