[Shield Iron Fork Winter] Possibility

Summary of this chapter:

Wishbone and Winter Soldier said: I don't want to know the gossip about Big Shield and Iron Man.

Captain America lingered outside Iron Man's door for a long time.You are not mistaken, I am talking about two kinds of doors.

In fact, he didn't want to come, but when he got into the room after taking a shower, he saw the Winter Soldier occupying the whole bed in all directions.Seeing him coming in, his good comrade poked his head out of the quilt in an unfriendly way, and muttered, "Didn't you sleep in Stark's room? Why don't you go there?"

Steve was annoyed and funny, he touched his shirt to put it on, and lifted a corner of the quilt, "I don't know what nonsense you are talking about."

Seeing that Steve intends to share such a comfortable big bed with him, the Winter Soldier hurriedly put back a corner of the raised quilt, and spread his arms and legs even wider.I wanted to find some words to persuade Steve to leave, but I didn’t think I was good at it, so I immediately closed my eyes and turned my head to one side, and said calmly, “Well, then I’ll go to sleep and have a good night.”

So sometimes friendship is also very pale, and the boat of friendship is overturned for a big bed in the Stark Building.At that moment Steve felt that instead of giving the Winter Soldier his couch, he should give him a bunk on the floor.

But at the same time, he is also thankful that the Winter Soldier has no team to choose from in the civil war, and can only stand in the captain's camp.Otherwise, he would really be given a choice, and he would defect to the Iron Man team every minute.

Even so, it wasn't enough to get Steve to muster up the courage to walk to the room down the hall right away.So he lifted the quilt again, pushed the Winter Soldier's arm, and said, "Bucky, at least you can sleep a little bit."

The Winter Soldier is not good at bickering with people, but he is still very good at playing dead.He once lay in the snow for more than ten hours in a daze, and he also hid in a tree trunk and faced the sniper scope without moving for a day and a night.He is a well-trained sniper, and it is not so easy for Steve to move him-not to mention that Steve is moving to his left side now, what are you kidding, the Winter Soldier can even make the iron arm grow on the sheet immediately Together.

So Steve went around to the right again.But again, he still didn't move the Winter Soldier.In fact, he didn't want to move that much. He had a thousand words to say to Tony, but he lacked an opportunity and a little courage.Well now, the Winter Soldier gave him the chance.He tried to push his comrades who were pretending to be dead a few more times, and after receiving silent protests, he finally walked towards the door.

"It's better for you to wear pants." Walking to the door, the Winter Soldier's voice came faintly from behind.As soon as Steve turned his head, the Winter Soldier threw his pants in his face, and when he took them off his head, the Winter Soldier snored like he hadn't moved at all.

But the Winter Soldier's advice makes sense.He just wrapped his lower body in a towel, and Tony would inevitably doubt his sincerity and motives when he saw it.

So after putting on his pants, Steve walked to Iron Man's room.

After lingering in front of the door for at least five minutes, Steve raised his hand for the sixth time.This time, he finally knocked on the door.Startled by his own knock on the door, he quickly cleared his throat, stabilized his voice as much as possible, and said softly to the people inside—"Uh...Tony, it's me."

The moment Tony heard Steve's voice, his heart was finished.He gave Crossbones a nasty look, wondering quickly if there was somewhere to hide the big guy first.

But of course, he didn't find it.There was absolutely no way he could hide the crossbones in the closet, the wishbones were huge and he couldn't keep the wishbones in there without making noise.He couldn't hide Crossbones under the bed either, because he didn't know how far things would go with Steve in.Whether it is letting the other party listen to some indecent sounds under the bed, or realizing that there is someone under the bed, it will greatly affect the interest.

Tony doesn't accept this kind of play, he can't be hard.

His eyes fell on a huge safe in the room.The safe is for the armor and has enough space inside for the crossbones to go in.But here comes the problem, he is not sure if the safe will be isolated from oxygen.When he designed the armor storage room, he made it according to the standard of the more airtight the better.After all, the less exposure to oxygen, the slower the metal will rust.

And Crossbones obviously realized this, and responded to Iron Man with a look of incomparable astonishment.

Well, this road is also blocked.Iron Man had no choice but to make a hush gesture, signaling Crossbones not to move yet.If that's not possible, then don't bring Steve in.The consequences of not opening the door are better than opening the door to see the personal security guard sharing the same room with him.

Seeing that Tony didn't respond, Steve yelled at the door again—"Tony...are you asleep?" After speaking, he made his conclusion first, "No, you must not be asleep, I can...I can Come in and talk to you?"

"No, Steve...I'm going to sleep, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Tony replied.He made his voice languid.

But if Steve had been that resigned, the Civil War wouldn't have started.

There was a slight silence outside the door for two seconds, and Steve's voice sounded again, his tone full of loss and frustration, "I'm sorry, Tony. Are you...are you still mad at me?"

That tone was full of guilt, which made Tony's heart soften.But he can't be soft now, he must maintain a clear consciousness and rational thinking.

He walked slowly to the bed and sat down, then answered outside the door—"I'm not angry, I'm really going to sleep, I'll have a good chat with you tomorrow, okay?"

"No, Tony, I know you don't go to bed that early. When I lived with you, you wouldn't go into the bedroom before dawn. You—" Steve paused, concluding—" You don't want to hear my voice, do you?"

"No, no, no, I'm just—" Iron Man just wanted to explain, and Crossbones slowly came over and sat next to him, looking excited and looking forward to the follow-up, Tony forgot what he wanted to say in an instant.Instead, he punched the crossbones forcefully, cursing in a low voice—"Block your ears, damn it!"

Crossbones turned his head to look at Tony, and smiled. Instead of plugging his ears, he crossed his hands and asked gloatingly, "Didn't you say that you have a pure revolutionary friendship with him? But it sounds like a story. "

"That's because the entire Avengers live together!" Tony responded hoarsely.

He can't wait to pull up the soundproofing device right now, but this is his bedroom, the place where he is most vulnerable.All doors have soundproofing equipment, but the soundproofing equipment for the bedroom includes the small hall for drinking coffee outside.

"Is there anyone else in you, Tony?" Steve couldn't help asking when he heard the noise.

Iron Man panicked, and quickly explained—"No, I'm going to sleep, there's no one there. Go to sleep too, we'll—"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to speak to you tomorrow." Steve insisted.His voice became firm and steady, filled with the heroic spirit of fighting to the death.

Yes, Steve did think a lot about it.He knew that once he faced Tony's dark and bright eyes, he would be flustered and his organized words would fall apart.Maybe it was good for Tony not to open the door, at least it would allow him to confide clearly and plainly what was in his mind.

Although Tony didn't want to kill him, he confessed now.

"Something I actually wanted to tell you before the war started, and I know it might sound a little... weird, but I want to keep hiding it from you, maybe to deceive you. I don't want to deceive you, especially during the war and Bucky's After what happened." Steve said seriously, trying to express his meaning fully and objectively.

He squeezed his fists, and now his palms are greasy and sweaty.

But Wishbone was upset when he heard this, and couldn't help complaining, "Damn it, this kid put the blame on the Winter Soldier again. I'm telling you, the soldier I brought, he absolutely—"

"I told you to plug your ears, didn't you hear? You son of a soldier killed my parents after brainwashing. Do you want me to settle the debt with you now?" Iron Man said angrily.

Of course Tony knew Hydra was responsible for the whole thing, but the Winter Soldier was the one who did it himself.Even if he could talk himself out of pursuing the Winter Soldier after the fact, he wouldn't feel so comfortable thinking about it.So he can only try not to think about it, and Crossbones should never be mentioned.

That's why Tony didn't want Crossbones to hear. He knew that Crossbones liked the Winter Soldier as much as Steve had for him.And Steve must come to apologize, and the content of the apology must be related to the Winter Soldier.

He didn't want to make things awkward and embarrassing, but Steve insisted that there was nothing he could do.

Crossbones also admitted that he was wrong, and sat silently without making a sound.

But neither of them expected that Steve was definitely more than just apologizing.

"After the war ended, I kept thinking about what I did at that time. I insisted on taking the Winter Soldier away, hoping that he could be pardoned, because he was a victim from beginning to end, although he was a perpetrator in the eyes of outsiders. By."

Steve paused, and put his palm on the cold door, "He is my friend, he was by my side when I needed the care of others the most. Now is also the time when he needs me the most, I can't... I can't stand by and watch."

Tony knew it, he knew it all.He also felt guilty and regretted his radicalism.But he couldn't guarantee that when he experienced the same scene again, he would be able to control the outburst of anger.But he also has to tell Steve—"I know he's your friend, and so am I. So I—"

But before Tony could finish speaking, Steve interrupted him.The content of the interruption made the two of them stunned for a moment, because it sounded...not very pleasant.

"No, you're not my friend. I...I don't want you as my friend," Steve said.

Tony felt cold.Oh, then this can also be explained.After all, they had had conflicts from the very beginning, and Steve showed kindness to himself out of politeness, which could only prove that Steve was well-bred, that he had a strong endurance, and that he could let the past go, but it couldn't prove that This is friendship.Nor should Tony expect any particularly deep friendship between them.

"It's not friendship." As if it wasn't enough, Steve added a little more.

Even Wishbone couldn't help looking at Tony with sympathetic eyes.

Tony gritted his teeth, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"The friendship in my understanding is the same as Bucky's. We can share everything, share our residence, share our emotions, share our hobbies, and share all our joys, sorrows and joys. We will not have any worries."

"But you and I... can't. I'm afraid that if you don't like this kind of thing, if you don't like that kind of talk, I will be nervous when I get along with you. I am trembling and at a loss. The more I am afraid that you will be unhappy, the more unhappy you will be. I……"

"I don't know what to do. It's not friendship, it's not."

The sheets tightened in Tony's hands.Wishbone patted him on the shoulder reassuringly.

Although Wishbone doesn't understand the process of getting along between two people, such a sharp confession is a kind of harm to anyone.Although Crossbones didn't have many friends, just thinking about the day when Bartok or Rollins said this to him, it would inevitably feel a little sad.

"He's an asshole, you can see he can't even speak clearly." Wishbone said, squeezing Iron Man's shoulder hard.

But Tony didn't respond.Although what Steve said was not pleasant, it was indeed their problem.It was Tony himself who understood the relationship between the two parties so deeply that it was difficult to accept the moment of being woken up.

"I'm so different from you, we come from completely different eras, different life backgrounds. I thought I could adapt to your way, after all, I know your father, more or less I can get along with Howard Find some experience in the process of making my relationship with you less rigid. But the truth is, I can't do it."

Because Tony was more naughty than his father.He doesn't have Howard's self-discipline, stability, and maturity.Those virtues from the last century have long been forgotten in this era.Perhaps at that time his father was also a criticized playboy and a genius inventor, but if you compare him with Tony, Tony is better than blue.

"Enough, Steve." Tony couldn't help it, he didn't want to hear the words behind, "I know we don't have much friendship, I always knew, you don't have to emphasize it over and over again, let alone your Friendships are worthless to me."

But Steve didn't stop, he raised his voice, making each word more distinct.He didn't speak clearly like Crossbones said, instead, he spoke so clearly that even Tony was starting to find his voice too harsh.

"I know I'm nothing, without the Starks I might not even be Captain America. You're right, everything I have comes from a bottle of serum. Without that bottle of serum, I wouldn't even be able to serve as cannon fodder on the battlefield impossible."

He is thin and short.He has a heart full of ambitions, but there is no platform for him to flex his muscles.He was eager to dedicate all his blood to justice, but justice didn't even want to look at him, and directly gave him countless big failures.

"But I still have a little bit of guts, I don't know where my guts come from, you can laugh at me, ignore me, look down on me, and even ridicule everything I said tonight afterwards, but I still want to tell you— —Just this once, to tell you personally—”

Hearing this, Wishbone couldn't sit still.He didn't know anyone who was so fucking broke that he came out and said hurtful things.No wonder he never got along with Captain America, he looked down on such losers from the bottom of his heart.At least he dared to act bravely with his crossbones, whether he lost or won, he would not mention it again.

Captain America, what a mess.

Standing up from Iron Man, he was going to open the door straight now.

He just wanted to show Steve that there was more than one person in Tony Darke's room.Why should Stark wait for Captain America with anticipation?Why should he be poured with cold water after he took the lead in throwing out the olive branch?Why don't you like it if you don't like it? Why do you have to come and slap this man after refusing?What the hell is Captain America, he crossbones every minute—

Tony grabbed Crossbones by the wrist and shook his head.

Yes, even so, Tony still didn't want to let Steve misunderstand, he didn't need these misunderstandings to win his dignity back.

"Sit down," Tony ordered. "He's leaving."

Crossbones stared at Tony incredulously, before finally being forced to sit back down.He can guarantee that he will have a frank meeting with the Winter Soldier in the future, and he will definitely warn the soldier Captain America that this guy is bad, and don't even make friends with him.

But Steve's last words left the two people present dumbfounded.Yes, Steve spoke again, and that was indeed the epilogue, and the original motivation for knocking on the door.

He didn't just want an apology, and he definitely didn't want friendship.Because—"I like you a lot, Tony. When I realized that, I realized why I couldn't get along with you like I could with Howard, and I couldn't get along with you like I could with Bucky."

Because I care too much about the other party's evaluation, I will chew every sentence repeatedly.Because I am too afraid of losing trust, every expression will be checked over and over again.Because I am too worried that I will not do well, I will do even worse, more stupid, more stupid, more stubborn, and more wrong.

Love is like a thief.

"I'm sorry," Steve said.

After speaking, there was a long silence outside the door.

It didn't matter whether he was a fossil or a freak in Tony's eyes, he had said what he wanted to say.Started before the Civil War and continued after the Civil War.The war couldn't change his emotional direction, and because of this, he sent a letter and a cell phone that even he felt embarrassed about.

He liked Tony, liked it a lot.I liked it for a long time, and I liked it so much that I wrote it down several times, and then tore up the letter paper several times.This is not friendship, this is love.Only love can make people feel guilty, ridiculously naive, and ridiculously stupid.It's like toad □ wanting to eat swan meat, and it's like digging a well and thinking that you can have the moon.

Steve doesn't hear a response, and he doesn't expect one from Tony.Tony is too shiny, Iron Man is too shiny.He has exhausted all his luck to stand outside the other party's door and say these words, and Tony will leave that response to the existence that matches him.

Steve regained his composure for a while and walked away.But before he took two steps, the bedroom door opened.His heart rose to the mouth of his throat, and he turned around slowly.

But he didn't see Tony's dark eyes, or Tony in his nightgown.He only saw a man wearing a helmet with a white background and a blue border, and the man nodded to him, and then closed the door.

"Dude, if you stop talking so much nonsense and just skip to the last confession, the effect will be much better." Crossbones, the personal bodyguard, suggested sincerely when passing by Steve.

And the fourth person hiding behind the door panel also put away the densely packed notebooks, and if he realized something, he shook his iron arm and got back into the bed again.
