Immortal - Part 31 - Steve x Tony x Reader

Steve stood, wide eyed as (Y/n) jumped in front of him; her whole form shaking as her body was riddled with all the bullets that had been meant for him. The two just looking at one another as she continued to cover him.

He had lost his shield some time ago in this latest battle with Hydra agents, but he had still been giving as good as he got, until he had seen the men with a number of rather large guns, all pointing at him; Steve knowing that despite his increased healing abilities, he was still not bullet proof and there was no way that he could survive if they had all started shooting. Yet before the notion of finally meeting his maker had really settled it into his mind, the team's resident immortal had come to his rescue. The captain knowing that Tony would have more than a few things to say to both of them, if he could see what was going on; and given that he could currently hear the billionaire screaming through his comms, Steve had to think he could; but at this moment all he could do was be happy that (Y/n) was on their side and he would deal with Stark, later. The air suddenly going quiet, as the guns stopped; Steve watching as the immortal shook slightly, and all the bullets dropped to the floor.

"You're welcome, Steve. Oh, and here.........." (Y/n) said, as if what had just happened was nothing, and she handed him what was left of his shield.

"Got a bit broken, but its better than nothing........And will you tell the old man that I am fine.......I can hear him screaming from here. I would do it myself, but my damn comms seem to have been ruined by one of those bullets........" She added, pulling the shattered comm from her ear and smiling at him.

"Be back in a minute.........." Steve continuing to watch her, as she smiled at him again, before turning and quickly making her way over to the enemy agents. The captain shaking the thoughts from his mind, just in time to punch out another Hydra operative, who was baring down on him.

(Y/n) had been a true shot in the arm for the team since she had joined them on missions; her abilities, new ones of which Steve was sure appeared with every fight, were amazing. She the one person that no one had to worry about while they were fighting, for even though she put herself in more danger than any of them, at the end of everything, she would always walk through the smoke and debris, without a mark on her. Though if they all acted like Tony, she would probably be wrapped in cotton wool and left behind at the compound, every time they had to deal with something. It becoming more and more obvious to all, that as the months had passed, Stark's feelings were only growing for the beautiful immortal. Clint and Sam often groaning when (Y/n) and Tony were not in the room, that they wished the pair would just get a room and do the nasty, so that the sexual tension would finally leave the compound. Yet it was not only Tony that had come to care for her; the immortal proving popular with all the team, and Steve would admit that he himself thought a great deal of her. She often sitting with him and Bucky, the trio not just talking about the old century, but the two listening like eager little schoolboys, as she spoke of all the other battles and wars she had seen and been involved in; about empires that she had seen rise and fall and of places that no longer existed.

"ROGERS!" Steve pulling the comm from his ear, as Tony shouted even louder than before. The captain, dropping to the floor and rolling out of the way, as more enemies came his way. Steve reaching for a gun that must have been dropped by the man that he punched; shooting the newcomers as well as the other agent that was just struggling to get back to his feet.

"She's fine, Stark. She's immortal, remember........." Steve finally replied, as he pushed the comm back into his ear. The captain turning around and viewing the scene to make sure that finally the battle was over. A smile coming to his lips, as he watched the immortal easily snap the neck of one last man, before turning and making her way back to him.

"I don't care.......and she better had be ok........" The billionaire retorted. Steve looking up, as he heard a noise from overhead; Tony's mask opening, as soon as his feet touched the floor. His arms crossing over his chest, as (Y/n) moved to Steve's side.

"What you did.........."

"What I did, was save Steve's life. Now, I don't know about you, but I think that was worth it. And as you can see.........." (Y/n) turning around to show them her back; her outfit looking like Swiss cheese and revealing just a little more of her than Tony wanted Steve to see.

"The only thing that got damaged was my clothes. I seriously have to have a word with my tailor about making my outfits a little more durable......." She continued, stepping up to Tony and bopping his nose, as he had been the one to make her uniform.

"(Y/n) you can't............." Steve suddenly feeling like he was interrupting something, as Tony followed after her. All of them stepping over bodies.

"Yes, I can. I am an immortal, Tony. Over the years I have been shot, stabbed.....hell, I was even hung and burnt as a witch at one point; but as you can see, I am still here. So, I will continue to do what I have to do, to protect not only Steve, but everyone else. Now will you stop worrying, and can we get back to the jet.....it has been a rather long day........" (Y/n) interrupted. This time kissing Tony on the nose, before running off to go and see if Bucky was alright, as he limped into view.

"That woman........." Tony sighed, his shoulders slumping, as she pulled Barnes' arm over her shoulder to give him more support.

"Yes, I know, will be the death of you. But maybe before that, you really should tell her how you feel. It's getting to the point where even I have to agree with Clint and Sam, and tell you, you should just give all us kids some money to go to the pictures and you two can just get on with it........" A smile coming to Steve's lips as Tony looked at him; the billionaire shocked to hear such things come from the lips of the boy scout. The captain not giving him time to reply, before he rushed off to help (Y/n) with Buck.

Thinking........that was what Tony had been doing since they all climbed back onto the Quinjet. Thinking since they had all got back to the compound. He didn't know why he had waited so long; it was true that he had been doing his best to woo (Y/n) properly. That he had wanted to take his time and show her how much he cared; that if she opened her heart to him, he would not hurt her. Yet he had put off every chance he had had to just tell her that, well, that he was already in love with her; using the excuse of missions and the fact that he was still trying to work on his dad's notes in the notebook about a serum to take away (Y/n)'s immortality. Though after watching from a distance as she had taken all those bullets, he wasn't quite sure that he wanted her to be just as vulnerable as the rest. But after what Steve had said, maybe it was time that he just came out and said it; for even if she had all the time in the world, he didn't. So, could he really afford to continue as he was going and then regret everything later. Tony shaking his head as he got to his feet. This no longer the time to think.......this the time to act..........
