Who: All the town kids who want in
What: Hot Tub Party
Where: Tony's house
When: Today

This place was great, his dad wasn't around and he didn't have classes or tutors or anything to bother him. And he had a house full of bots and his pokemon, it was quite possibly the coolest place he'd ever been and people were coming over, it was gonna be a party!

Sure he didn't do much in the way of planning but he had his fridge full of cheese and there were drinks everywhere and Dum-E would totally make juice if people wanted it, it seemed to be about all he could do but Tony loved him and he was glad to have him there.

And well .... it was gonna be cool, he'd never had a party before, not with kids his own age so he was ready and he was antsy kind of pacing a little bit while he waited for people to show up. And just when he thought he had it all ready Tony realized there was one thing left he needed and quickly found a piece of paper and some tape scribbling a hasty note and taping it outside on his door.

Come on in! It's party time.
No adults allowed!!!

Natasha | Steve

Steve was absolutely not pretty good, but Natasha was pretty swell to say it. He tried though, extra careful to be light on his toes so he didn't stand on hers. It wasn't much in time and it was a little jumpy, but it was absolutely a dance so there was that. "I never danced before, especially not with a pretty dame like you," Steve told her with a shy little smile.

Girls loves Bucky, all he had to do was smile at them and they'd giggle. When Steve smiled people were sometimes nice, or they were laughing at him for his wheeze. But Steve didn't let it get him down. "Liked? You don't like it anymore?" Steve asked her as he tried to spin her under his arm but he wasn't tall enough and had to stand up on his toes.

There was just something about her and Steve took her hand again and so all their fingers interlocked. "I missed you," he told her and he wasn't sure why he said it, but nothing had ever been so true.

"Never? You should dance more, it's fun." She told him surprised, he'd come right up to her and asked like that, who wouldn't like that? Maybe Steve was a little small, but she knew kindness when she saw it and he had plenty of that. There was too little of that in her world, she wanted it there with him.

Truth be told she hadn't realized she'd said it like that until Steve pointed it out. She didn't think it was wrong though. But it was too, she liked dancing, but she also used to like it too. It was confusing. "I like it," She agreed as she bent her knees just a little to spin with Steve as he stood up on his toes making it just a little bit easier for them both like that.

It should have been strange to have him say that to her, but she thought maybe she felt that too. And she squeezed his hand gently, pressing her forehead to his. "I missed you too." She didn't need to understand it fully to know it was true. She had missed him, the thought of him, like he'd been pulled away from her.

She hadn't made fun of him, instead she ducked under his arm and made it easier. There were plenty of fellers there she could have been dancing with, but he was with her. Which was crazy because Bucky was right there and he was something else, Steve could have just stared at him for hours and hours. But he wasn't staring at Bucky, he was watching Natasha in a strange kind of awe. "You're real beautiful," Steve told her softly.

When she leaned into him Steve wanted to wrap her in his arms, to lift her up off the ground. But he couldn't really do that. Now that they were together things were better, Steve was better and he didn't want to let her go.

"Don't go anywhere again, okay?" Steve said and he was serious. His little family there, Bucky, Gwen, Tony and Natasha, he wanted them to stay right where he could reach them.

She laughed when he told her she was beautiful, no one said that to her. But even as she laughed a little it warmed her to hear it from him. Like his opinion mattered more than others. "You're nice, Steve." She said rather than brushing off his compliment, she liked it and she thought she liked him too. Which was strange, wasn't it? But it felt right too.

It was a weird feeling dancing with him like this, wanting to hold him close and knowing he'd always catch her. It wasn't right was it? This little boy? But she knew there was more to him. Everything about this place was confusing, and she'd known it since she'd woken up that first morning and found Tony in the kitchen. She couldn't quite make sense of how it wasn't right but she knew it was and she supposed this was just one more part of it all.

Still she nodded when he told her not to go anywhere. "I'm right here." She promised him. "I don't want to go anywhere else." And it was true, there was no where else in the world she wanted to be than here in this place with these people. She didn't want to make Steve sad either. "I promise."
