Steve shrugged. He didn't mind cleaning up. "Alright. Is everyone done with their dishes?" He asked, getting up to start cleaning.
"Yeah, I'm done." Gemini said, handing her plate over. |
Aurora handed him her half eaten plate and sat watching Steve.
Tony smirked and leaned over to Gemini. "If you can control water now would be a great time to use it on Steve." he whispered in her ear. |
Gemini chuckled. "Unfortunately, I don't have that ability." She whispered back.
Steve heard the whispering, but paid no attention to it as he washed the dishes. |
Tony pouted a little kind of wondering why he was trying to play cupid though it would be fun to see Aurora's reaction to a wet tight shirted Steve.
|
Gemini leaned closer. "I can make him sweat, though." She offered. It would be an easy matter to make the air around Steve much, much warmer.
|
Tony grinned. "I like the idea." he say back with a smirk on his face.
Aurora frowned at the scowling knowing nothing ever good ever came of that smirk. |
Gemini nodded, and started turning up the temperature. She had to be careful to keep the chance confined to the area around Steve, so it took a good bit of concentration, but soon enough he was sweating through his shirt.
At first, he thought nothing of it when he started to feel warm. It was a warm day, and he was cleaning up, washing dishes with hot water. It made sense. But after a while, the rising temperature made him suspicious. His shirt was stuck to him by the time he turned around and glared in Tony and Gemini's direction. "Why. Is it so hot in here." It wasn't a question. |
Aurora turned bright pink as she stared at Steve. She fought the urge to touch him and just continued to share.
"I don't think it's hot in here." Tony play frowned at Gemini. "Do you feel warm?" |
Gemini shook her head, looking perfectly innocent. "No, not at all." She said.
Steve scowled. "Gemini." He stared at the kitsune. "You're doing something. Admit it." |
"I think Aurora likes it." Tony smirked at Aurora who was drooling a little.
|
Steve glanced over at Aurora, and did a slight double take when he noticed she was staring. "You've made your point. Make it stop." He demanded, though he was blushing.
Gemini let up, allowing h=the temperature around him to go back to normal- not that he would notice, now that he was sweating so much. "I can honestly tell you that I'm not doing anything." Anymore. |
"You should take it off before it sticks." Tony suggested then blinked at the bright color Aurora turned. "It burns my eyes." he joked laughing.
Aurora was imagining Steve shirtless and sweaty but for another reason. |
Steve was distracted from making a comeback when he saw how bright Aurora was blushing. "Um...Aurora? Are you alright?" He went over to her and put a hand to her forehead, to see if she was running a fever.
Gemini had to bite her fist to stop herself from laughing. "How can he be that clueless?" She whispered. |
Tony leaned over. "We are talking about Steve. I mean Peggy did kiss him." he smirked.
Aurora turned brighter when his chest came in closer. Her hand reached out and roamed over his chest while the other hand yanked him down into a firey kiss. |
Steve paused a moment, caught off guard, but then quickly returned the kiss.
"They both smell like hormones." Gemini commented. "Like animal attraction." |
Tony snorted nearly chocking on his coffee. "That's one way to put it." he smirked.
Aurora was running her hands over Steve's chest when she realized that they where in the kitchen. She pulled away blushing for once glad that Cress had done the thinking. |
Gemini shrugged. "I meant it literally. That's what animals smell like when they're mating." She said.
Steve blushed when Aurora pulled away. Breathing heavily, he looked anywhere but at her face. |
"Well I'm not surprised with that kind of kiss." Tony snorted. "Most people smell that way when they want to do it I'm sure." he smirked. "Get a room you two."
Aurora blushed. "I would but Aurora would need to agree and so would Steve." Cress smirked. |
Steve pulled back a little in surprise. "Cress?" He asked, hoping he was wrong. Why couldn't he ever have a nice moment with Aurora, and no one else interfering?
Gemini bit her lip. She sensed the situation becoming unstable, and could see things going wrong very easily. |
"Not really. Aurora is unable to make a coherent sentence at the moment but she was the one who kissed you so don't worry about that." Cress glared at Steve. "You hate me. You'll never have Aurora I'll make sure of that." Aurora's eye's turned back to normal.
|
Steve shook his head. "Don't put words in my mouth. I never said I hated you." He defended himself angrily. That wasn't fair for her to say. "Cress- Aurora- both of you...I love you. I love everything about you, multiple personalities and all."
"Aw...that's so sweet..." Gemini whispered, hands over her mouth. |
"No you don't." Aurora sighed. "You don't like Cress. I can tell, she can tell, all of us can tell." she looked down tears appearing in her eyes. "I don't blame you though. She's hard to like."
|
Steve gently grabbed her chin and guided her gaze back up to his. "You're right, she's hard to like. But liking someone and loving them are different things, Aurora. I love you. Every part of you, even the not-so-likable parts. I'm not lying about that."
|
Aurora blushed softly and leaned against him. "Please try to get along with Cress I know it's hard." she sighed.
|
"Of course I'll try." Steve said, hugging her.
Gemini covered her mouth, stifling her "aw!" |
