Steve’s no stranger to finding love, or something quick and dirty, when out on a call. But often once the other person realizes just how crazy and unpredictable his job and life really is, it usually fizzles out after just a few short weeks.
So when he meets cute—”Just me call Tony.”—when his station is called out to help in downtown LA, he doesn’t think much about it, especially because he knows it won’t last long. Even if by the end of the first week he wishes it would.
So imagine his surprise when they hit their six month mark and Tony seems to have no plans of going anywhere...
…then imagine his surprise when he finds out roughly eight months in that Tony isn’t just an employee of Stark Industries but the next in line to take over the company once his father decides to step down.
Will Steve stick around once he finds out or will he be the one that finally splits and runs...
