Together Forever ~ Stony

Married

Previously

His family looked at him with a happy and proud smile on their faces, as always...

Now

"And this is the 21st Century, 2023 to be exact", Tony said and Peggy gasped while Howard looked mortified.

"That's right", Tony said looking at their reactions, "How?", Peggy asked, "Something stupid the birdbrain asked for", Tony said.

"Hey!", Clint said and Nat and Steve shook their heads fondly and Peggy noticed the look in Steve's eyes as he looked at Tony.

It was a loving look neither she nor anyone she had known to have loved Steve received, there was more than love in that look.

Something she couldn't identify, something she couldn't pinpoint, but she was sure of one thing.

It was only for Tony, it was given to him and it will only be given to him, always and Peggy instead of feeling jealous felt happy.

"So Steve is...", Howard trailed confused, "Somewhere in the ice in your time", Tony said and took Steve's hand.

Howard saw this and looked at Tony angrily which Tony didn't notice, "Why are you holding his hand Anthony? Do you know how valuable he is", Howard asked and Tony rolled his eyes.

Steve groaned and an arrow embedded itself next to Howard's head, but from the way it embedded itself, it didn't look like it was missed but rather aimed.

Tony looked at Clint who looked at Tony innocently, "Oops sorry, it slipped", Clint said and his family smiled.

Everyone except the two from the past knew that the archer's hands nor his fingers ever slipped, they were an archer's hand for god's sake.

Bruce and Tony would both say that they were steadier than a surgeon, for sure, especially Clint's as he was a born archer.

"No it didn't", Tony muttered under his breath and Steve and Peter, who had high hearing, chuckled.

They stopped and Steve cleared his throat as Tony glared at them, "Howard, first of all, I am not an object to be measured with value", Steve started.

"Well you are more valuable to me than any other objects", Tony interrupted and Steve smiled, "And please, without realizing the situation in this timeline, stop commanding your son", Steve continued after the pause.

"But Steve, he is wrong, he doesn't know the reality", Howard said and Peter, Harley, Wade, Clint, and Thor laughed making the other four smile. 

They stopped as they saw the other's reaction, "Oh it wasn't a joke Granpabi-in-law?", Wade asked and Tony rolled his eyes.

"Still never gave permission", Tony said and Wade ignored it as they usually do, "No it wasn't, and stop calling me that", Howard commanded.

"And stop commanding him", Tony fired back at Howard, he may dislike Wade, but he would never let anyone else command or talk bad about Wade, it was only his right.

Wade kept a hand over his heart, "You touched my heart dad-in-law", he said, "Shut up", Tony said with a smile on his face.

"Trust me, Howard, he knows more of the reality than the both of you combined", Steve, "You don't know what we went through, what he went through", Thor continued.

"What? Did he die or something?", Howard asked, "Correct, 10 points to the ones from the past", Clint said.

"He nearly died", Steve interjected at the same time and glared at Clint, "First of all, both of you stop glaring at me, you are worse than the twins", Clint said to Steve and Tony, who chuckled.

Peter and Harley hi-fied and the family started having their conversation, "Are you planning on marrying my baby?", Tony asked Wade suspiciously and Steve and Peter smiled.

"Maybe", Wade said and Tony composed himself, "You can keep on dreaming", Tony said making Peter hug his dad from behind, who smiled and hugged his son.

"You are married?", Peggy said out of the blue making the family realize they had visitors, she was looking at Steve's hand who was holding Harley's arms, which were wrapped around his neck, just like Peter and Tony's.

Steve smiled as he looked at his wedding ring, it was as if the proposal happened yesterday, Tony proposed to him at the same time he proposed to Tony.

Also Tony was pregnant with his two boys who were now two grown-ups, as if knowing Steve's thoughts Tony also smiled and looked at Steve as Steve looked at him at the same time.

"Yes", Steve said softly while looking into Tony's eyes, "You are also married?", Howard asked shocked as he looked at Tony.

"Wow you observe?", Bruce asked suddenly, "Brucie bear don't be rude", Tony said, "Oh I wasn't, I just asked a doubt", Bruce said innocently and Tony sighed.

He can't argue with his family and won't argue with them ever, "Yes I am, very happily, 21 years now to be exact", Tony said.

"Who is she? Is she fine with your job?", Peggy asked, "How do you know what I do?", Tony asked surprised.

"I am not blind Tony", she said softly and Tony smiled, Peggy always knew him, even when his parents failed to.

He looked at Steve who nodded with a smile on his face, they knew it was bad in the past, but it was not the past anymore and he was not going to let it pull him down.

"He, I have a husband and he is ok with it. He does something similar to what I do", Tony said and Peggy smiled confirming her suspicions.

"Of course, you are a fag. Who married a failure like you?", Howard asked, "Howard", Peggy said at the same time Thor threw a punch at Howard, who fell to the floor holding his nose.

"Don't you dare talk about him like that petty human", Thor boomed and Howard genuinely looked frightened.

"Now Thor let's be civil, you are scaring Bruce", Tony gritted, "No no, I am used to worse, you can kill him and I won't even feel the word fear, go on Thor", Bruce said.

"Boys, stop it, Howard it's not nice to interrupt a lady, Peggy was going to congratulate Tony on finding his true love", Nat said and Howard sat straight with blood running from his nose.

Peggy smiled at Nat, she liked the widow, "Congratulations Tony, congratulations Steve", she said and all smiled except Howard who looked confused.

"Anyway I am used to it, so let it be Thor", Tony said and Steve glared at Tony, "Just because you are 'used to it' doesn't mean it is right. It's unacceptable behavior. You have terrible standards when it comes to you", Steve said.

"Hey, I managed to land on you, didn't I? That's a pretty great standard in my books", Tony said making Steve smile and shake his head.

"It took you 2 months to realize Steve liked you and a near-death experience to realize you loved him", Nat stated.

"You have a shit sense of self-worth", Bruce and Wade said and Tony looked at them betrayed, "You married Steve?!?", Howard asked shocked and Tony rolled his eyes, here goes, he thought.

"I married him", Steve interjected and Howard looked at the blonde shocked and fainted...
