Chapter Text
Laughter and chatter from hundreds of people filled the floor of Stark Tower. Superheroes, scientists, friends, family and coworkers. Groups of people you would not find socialising anywhere else without the common factor of Tony Stark.
May 29th 2014, the day Tony Stark turns 44. Like every other year, he gathered large groups of people to celebrate him with the offer of food, alcohol and a firework show. Lonely press could be seen from the ground as FRIDAY was under explicit instructions on who was allowed up. After the incident from a few years ago where Clint, who had gotten too drunk to remember his PR training, started talking to a member of the press Pepper had gotten extra strict on how they were to behave in public. In the tower, however, the Avengers were relaxed and talking among other groups. Steve and Bucky had found a few war veterans that Sam and Rhodey had previously been talking to. Clint and Laura were sitting in a love seat holding conversation with one another. Tony was playing pool with a few old work buddies. Wanda sat at the bar as Natasha saw that she only drank non-alcoholic beverages, not wanting the newly nineteen year old to get drunk at a Stark Party of all places. And Thor was having a loud talk with Bruce about Asgardian science and how he should check it out next time Thor goes back.
As the hours dragged on, it was now midnight and time for the fireworks show that even if Tony had planned the drinks had made him forget. Most packed themselves out on the roof whilst others opted to staying indoors and some even deciding to call it a night. The colours lit the night sky above them in colours of red and gold, making the way into the shape of an Ironman suit. Laughter erupted from everyone watching as Rhodey and Pepper just shook their heads in disagreement even if they both found the act hilarious as well. The show lasts for the next 10 minutes finishing with the fireworks spelling out ‘Happy Birthday Tony Stark.’ A round of applause was heard as people made their way back inside as Tony stood up on one of his tables calling for everyone's attention.
“Everyone, Pepper told me that I have to say thank you for coming. So, Thank you for coming and celebrating yours truly as I am just amazing and I don’t know why anyone would want to miss this.” Pepper giving him a light smack on the shin as Tony bellows out a laugh before continuing. “Okay, I’ll be serious. Although I am Tony Stark and fucking drunk so I don’t know why you expect me to be serious. So, once again, I very much appreciate your company tonight. Have a safe travels home. If anyone is too drunk to drive, Happy will be able to organise you a ride home. Happy show yourself.” Looking out in the crowd Tony points to the corner Happy had found himself backed into. “There he is! Any way night night everyone.” Tony jumps down from the table before he gets Pepper and Rhodey to get the Avengers to stay behind.
The crowd clears out faster than expected and soon it is just the Avengers sitting on the couches with all but Bucky, Steve and Thor at least some part drunk.
“Why did you make us stay behind Stark?” Maria is the first to speak as she gathers pillows to place around her on the floor.
“Well my darling Hill, it is my birthday. Because it is my birthday, I want to spend time with you guys, cause you guys can be fucking cool.” Tony plants himself down between Pepper and Rhodey crossing his legs as if a child. “And I want to play a game.” Groans are heard from every person in the room.
“What are we children?” Bucky speaks up resting his head on Steves’ shoulder.
“To you Grandpa, the rest of us are.” Stark bites back as Bucky rolls his eyes. “I just thought, some of us have been a team for what? A few years, with some of you joining later on. And we don’t know much about each other that maybe a game of ‘Never have I ever’ could not fix.” He pulls out a few bottles of alcohol from behind his back with a wide smile, as he wasn’t drunk enough.
“Nope, Tony, you have had enough. If we play you are having apple juice for the first part, Wanda I think you know the same goes for you.” Pepper quickly grabs the bottles from his hands and places them in the kitchen close by.
“Well I think it is a great idea.” Sam speaks up from his spot on the floor. “I want to see what Grandpas over here got up to back in the day. They never say anything.” Nods and agreements are heard from throughout the team.
“That is because everytime Buck and I try to talk about before the war someone has to make a snarky comment.” Steve defends himself and Bucky with a sharp look at Tony.
“Alright, who wants to play.” Everyone voices their agreement as Pepper and Wanda start to grab glasses and drink for everyone. Placing down the three glasses in front of Thor, Bucky and Steve, Wanda takes the cap of the bottle but Thor stops her before she is able to pour.
“I have something that may be better for the three of us. Asgardian Alcohol. Much stronger than your earth stuff. It is enough to get these two super soldiers drunk.” Thor pours the three of them a drink as Steve and Bucky voice their thank yous.
“Alright so, I will explain as our Grandpas and honorary God probably don't know how to play. So someone will say something they have never done, for example I could say ‘never have I ever flown to space’ and anyone who has would drink. Meaning Thor would be the one to drink. I'll start then we'll go around the sort of weird shape we have created.” Tony explains as the drinks start to wear down, still not enough for Pepper to give him anything more than apple juice.
“Let's start off easy. Never have I ever stalked an ex on or off social media.” Sam, Wanda and Natasha were the only three to drink while Thor asked what social media was.
“Alright my go I guess.” Bruce spoke from Tony's left. “Never have I ever kissed a close friend of mine.” Tony, Rhodey, Steve, Bucky, Natasha and Wanda all took a drink. Tony grumbling at the apple juice before he noticed Steve taking a drink.
“Hold up Capsicle. Who have you kissed?” Drawing the room's attention to Steve as his face turned bright red.
“You said the rules were to drink if you have done it. You never said details were necessary.” A small smirk playing on Steve's lips as the first sip of this new alcohol took him by surprise.
“Okay, I'm going.” Maria chimed in, bringing the attention away from Steve. “Never have I ever lied on a government form.” The room turned silent as Bucky shot daggers into Steve's direction as he shyly took a sip before Tony, once again, started to question him.
“Did your Dad seriously never tell you the full story of Captain America? I swear America knows nothing about Steve.” Bucky said, this time really sounding like someone's grandfather.
“Never have I ever had sex with someone the same sex as me” Sam asked as Tony was stumbling on his words to the side. Natasha, Steve, Bucky and Tony all took a sip. Maria cheering on Natasha forcing a blush to form the other woman's face. The commotion from her drew attention away from the fact that Steve and Bucky took a drink looking at each other.
“Never have I ever snuck into the movies.” Clint asked as Maria's giggling fit died down. Bucky and Steve were the only two to drink to that, pulling the full attention of the room onto them.
“I'm beginning to realise that America's golden boys aren't exactly golden.” Tony exasperated.
“We grew up in the depression Stark, if we wanted to see a movie we had to sneak in. That wasn't even anywhere near the worst we have done.” Bucky replied now with Steve's head resting on his shoulder.
“Okay, I say we try and see just what Capsicle and Capsicle 2.0 really got up back in their day.” Tony declares making eye contact between the two super soldiers.
“Never have I ever received head.” Natasha asks, taking the first jump. After some awkward explaining to Thor, every guy in the room takes a drink. Steve and Bucky knowing it will be the first of many for them.
“Never have I ever given head.” Tony says, skipping a fair few people. Natasha, Maria, Steve, Bucky and Pepper all taking a drink. Tony still staring directly at the two up on his couch with his mouth open, not being able to comprehend anything in his mind.
“You might want to close your mouth Tony. Don't want to give any head do you?” Steve jokes earning a belly aching laugh from Bucky as he doubles over nearly spilling his drink in the process. Snapping his mouth shut, Wanda asks the next question.
“Never have I ever had a sex dream about someone on the team.” Natasha, Bucky, Steve, Pepper and Tony all take a drink as Thor refills Steve and Buckys glasses.
“Never have I ever been walked in on while having sex.” Bucky, Steve and Tony all drink.
“Well ladies and gentlemen. I think we should see which one of these men taps out first.” Clint announces with the game now changing to see which one has done worse.
“Never have I ever had phone sex?” Drink.
“Never have I ever hooked up in a public bathroom?” Drink.
“Been tied up.” Drink.
“Been in a threesome?” Drink.
“Been called Daddy?” Bucky was the only one to drink this time.
“Called someone Daddy?” Steve took a drink as he giggled, almost spilling it everywhere.
“Had it up the ass?” Steve and Bucky take another drink looking Tony dead in the eyes.
“You remember the first time Stevie? Wasn't it like 34 or something?” Bucky asked not breaking eye contact with Tony. Now seeing how uncomfortable they could make him.
“No, it was November 1933. You said it would warm me up in the cold weather. You were right. Remember though that you were scared I’d have an asthma attack during it, That would have been an awkward conversation with my mother.” Steve, now losing it over not just Tony's reaction but everyone's.
The room erupting in a commotion of questions, money exchanged and best of all Tony sitting in the middle of the floor blubbering over his words like a baby. Having a cup of apple juice in his hand was not helping his case.
“Wait- So how long have your Grandpas been together and why did we not know?” Tonys’ voice squeaking as his arms flew everywhere, with Pepper grabbing the cup from his hands.
“We've been together since July 21st, 1932. And we didn't tell anyone because, why didn't we tell anyone doll?” Bucky answered before turning to his boyfriend for answers.
“I don't know. We had just got out from the ice, we were living 70 years in the future. I think we just didn't find the time. You all are also forgetting that we lived through a time where we could have been arrested for this.” Steve answered slowly sobering up.
“But you said that someone had walked in on you having sex. Now I know for a fact none of us have because we would have known. So who did?” Bruce asked as he finished his drink as the game came to end.
Steve and Bucky tore their eyes away from Tony as they looked at each other. A simple motion seemed to clink in his head. For a night of drinking it would have to take something so horrible for him to be pulled back to sobriety.
“No.” He whispered, seeming to have pieced the puzzle together. The rest of the room looked between the three men feeling as if they were all talking telepathically.
“I had just saved Bucky along with the rest of the 107th.” Steve started as Tony continued to whisper ‘no' while covering his ears. “Once we got back to base Bucky and I went into my tent as this had been the first we had seen each other since he left for war. Anyway, we knew we would have at least an hour to ourselves before people started looking for us so we had sex.” Steve reached forward to take another sip of his drink in order to have the courage to share the story. Looking over at Bucky, he got the message and continued the story.
“I was sucking on Steve's cock.” Steve put his head behind Bucky trying to hide himself as groans were heard from others. “We just played a game where you were trying to get this information. We are all adults, grow up.” Bucky splattered before he took over on the story, again. “And before I had the chance to move away and put his pants up, Howard Stark walked in asking for Steve's advice on a few shield designs. He froze, I got up, Steve got some pants and we sat him down to tell him everything. He was pretty understanding for those times. That's not all though.” Bucky trailed off as Tony shot his head up taking his hands off his ears.
“What else happened Barnes?” Tony said in an almost threatening voice. Looks were exchanged between Steve and Bucky as they slowly got up and headed for the elevator to their floor while Tony called out for them. Once in the elevator, Steve stuck his head out looking at Tony before he spoke.
“We had a threesome with him.” The doors closed right as Tony started screaming wishing he never suggested the idea in the first place.
