It's Always Been You

 Steve and Morgan were stuck like glue the rest of the day and into the next. They played outside together, watched movies, had a tea party, painted, and made ice cream sundays. Y/N and Tony let them have their time together, joining in occasionally. With Morgan focused on Steve, this allowed them to run to the store as a small date. When they came back, it was early afternoon and they found Steve and Morgan asleep on the couch, Morgan laying on top of Steve.

"I'm glad Steve is finally home," Y/N said as her and Tony put the groceries away.

"Me too," Tony agreed. "I hate seeing Morgan and you so upset and worried about him."

"Like you weren't worried too."

Tony shrugged. "He's family, so I kinda have to be."

Y/N giggled. "Whatever. I know you—"

She was cut off by her phone buzzing. She pulled her phone out of her pocket and furrowed her brows at the Wakandan word that was appearing on her screen.

"What it is, honey?" Tony asked, coming over to her side.

"Someone from Wakanda," Y/N replied. She pressed the answer button and put the phone to her ear. "Hello?"

"Y/N," a woman's authoritative voice responded.

"Ayo," Y/N breathed out in relief. "What can I help you with?"

"Do you know anything about Barnes freeing Zemo from prison?"

"...I do..."

"And you haven't done anything to stop him? You know what Zemo did to the late King of Wakanda, and what he did to Bucky. Not to mention that he help break the Avengers apart. You should have been there immediately to talk sense into Barnes and detain Zemo."

"I completely understand why you're so upset Ayo. But I cannot control what Bucky decides to do."

"So you are going to let him ruin his pardon by working with Zemo? I'm so very disappointed in you, Y/N. The White Wolf has eight hours before we come for Zemo. And nothing will stand in our way." Then Ayo hung up.

"Well that went well."

"What was that all about?"

"Wakanda is mad that Zemo is free. They're giving Bucky eight hours to turn him over himself before they come back him."

"Oooo, I'd love to watch that. Give me some popcorn and a—"

"Tony!" Y/N lightly smacked his chest. "This is serious."

"Hey," he held his hands up, "I'm not the one who broke Zemo out of jail."

Y/N huffed. "I still ton't understand how he could be so stupid."

"Well, he was frozen and brainwashed for years. His brain is a little—" Tony stopped himself due to the look Y/N was giving him. "Sorry. I was just trying to make you smile."

"You clearly need to try a different strategy."

"Yeah," he rested his hands on her arms, "I'll work on that. How about we don't worry about Zemo, Wilson, and Barnes, and just focus on family? Besides, Peter's coming over tonight and spending the night. We need to be present for him. He said he had something he wanted to tell us."

"Yeah, okay, okay. I'll try to push it all away in the back of my mind."

"Not all the way, right? The way you care and worry is half the reason I love you." He leaned into kiss Y/N but she pulled back before he could.

"Half?"

"12%?"

"12%? What kind of random number is that?"
