Caught In A Web

 Tony was already waiting on the roof for you. You were late due to having to sneak out with your suit and helping a few people along the way.

"Took you long enough, spidey girl," Tony jested as you landed on the roof. "I was beginning to think you weren't going to show."

"Sorry," you apologized. "I got held up."

"Is everything alright?"

"Yeah, everything is fine."

He stepped closer to you, eyes scanning for anything that might be wrong. One of his armored hands came up and ran down your arm. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure, Tony. I'm okay."

Tony nodded. "Well, if you're up for it, I was thinking that we could just fly around."

"I would like that... it sounds nice and chill, which I need."

"Good. Front or back?"

"Um, let's try the back today."

"Sexy," Tony muttered.

"I heard that, Stark." You playfully swatted at him as you went around him.

"Sorry, sorry." He reached his hands back so that he could help you get onto his back. You let him help your legs wrap around his waist as your arms wrapped around his neck. "You good?"

"I'm good, tin man. Better hurry though. I'm sure that I can swing away faster than this."

"Better hold on tight then, spidey girl."

Suddenly, the two of you shot up. You squealed slightly as you held on tighter. Tony smirked as he continued to fly. He did some flips and twirls that caused you to giggle, which made his heart soar. He absolutely loved that sound.

You enjoyed flying around the city with Tony. When the sun had set, Tony headed back to the building. Carefully, he landed and waited until you were on your feet before turning around.

"That was fun," you told him softly. "Thanks."

"Of course," Tony responded.

A content silence fell between the two of you. Tony hated the idea of parting from you and he was honestly starting to get antsy. He wanted to get to know you in a different way, but you were clearly not ready for that.

"See you next Saturday?" You questioned, making sure your date was still planned.

"Sweetheart, you're my only Saturday plans for the foreseeable future," replied Tony.

You ducked your head, face warming at the comment. Tony's armored hands came up and carefully took your head in them. He moved his head close to yours and had the face plate brush against the top of your head, almost like he was kissing it.

"Stay safe out there, spidey girl," he whispered.

"As long as you promise to do the same," you replied.

You walked into Bruce's lab on Tuesday after taking your lunch break to find Tony and Bruce arguing with each other.

"Here!" Tony exclaimed. "Why don't we just let her make the choice?"

"Tony," Bruce sounded exasperated. "I—"

"Y/N!" Tony headed for you. "I'm working on a project and I think you're the one to help me."

You cleared your throat nervously. "Me?" You squeaked.

You hated how you couldn't act the same as you did with Tony when you were in the suit. It gave you a different level of confidence that you wished you could bring over into your normal life.
