A/N I do not own any of these characters. Also sorry for the late update…I didn't want this to be a long story from the start but I just haven't had a lot of time to update. Again sorry and hope every likes it ^_^

Waking up in Thor's arms was an experience that Tony could not put into words. He wasn't sure if they could last considering Thor does have obligations in Asgard but he will be grateful for whatever time he can have with the Man of Thunder. Thor still appeared to be asleep so Tony figured he could at least make this whole awkward conversation a little less awkward with some breakfast. He carefully slinked out of the bed and made his way to the kitchen to make a surprise breakfast of eggs, bacon, pancakes, muffins, juice, and even a little cereal. It took him about an hour to get everything together but as it seemed Thor was still fast asleep. He knew once Thor woke up that they would have to talk about what was going on between them. And Tony was still unsure if he could emotionally handle the answers that would inevitably come. He set the breakfast on his dresser and went over to wake his sleeping God of Thunder. He crawled back up next to him and placed soft kisses along his jaw and cheeks until he slowly opened his eyes.

"Metal Man…Good morning."

"Morning sunshine. I brought you breakfast."

His eyes lit up like the star on top of a Christmas tree. "I would love breakfast! Midgardians have so many choices to choose from. It is quite incredible. What have you brought?"

"It's better if I just show you." Tony went over and brought Thor the tray of food. He didn't look like he knew what to pick first. But Thor being Thor he ate well….a little bit of everything. Once they were done eating Tony started feeling a little bit nervous. He didn't know how to approach what he wanted to say to him.

"Thor…we need to talk."

"What about?"

"Well…us."

"Us? Is there something wrong? Was I unsatisfactory?"

"No. Not at all. You were fantastic…I mean more…when I say us…I mean…what are we? Is this a relationship? Just a…fun time? Is this temporary?"

"So you asking me because we had sexual relations this past night, if we are now engaged in one of the many social relationship customs of Midgard?"

"Yes."

"Ahh. And now you would like to discuss this?"

"If that is ok with you…yes I would."

I am more then fine with discussing whatever you wish I just was merely making sure I understood what you were asking of me."

"Ok. Well…where do we stand then? In what Midgardian social relationship custom do we fall under?"

"I do not wish to hurt you feelings. As I may say something in the wrong way as I am still not fully accustomed to your way of talk."

Tony was already feeling hurt but he wasn't going to tell Thor that just yet. "Thor it is fine. That is why we are going to talk about this."

"I cannot argue then. There are things that I must make clear about this….us as you put it."

"Alright."

"I…" Thor barely even got to start that sentence as they were rudely interrupted by Jarvis.

"Sir, Doctor Banner is here to see you."

"Can't you tell him I am otherwise occupied?"

"I tried Sir. He says it is of the utmost importance and will override my systems if you do not comply with his demands."

"Fine. Tell him we will be in the living area waiting for him."

"As you wish Sir."

"Thor…we really need to have this talk but we will have to pick this up later."

"I understand. I will be ready to talk whenever you wish to."

They didn't have to wait long for Banner to emerge into the Stark complex. He looked completely out of sorts.

"Tony! Sorry that I had to barge in like this…but I need your help."

"Ok Doc, well why don't you calm down and come explain what it is you need help with."

After Banner had explained Tony felt ready have Thor get his Hammer and just give the Doc a good smacking. "What! You had to barge in while we were having a kind of important conversation for that! A party?!"

"Tony, I know it seems…unnatural to you to care about other's days of birth but I really wanted to do something special for one of our friends. And you have the biggest house to host. And the means to make one hell of a party."

"Doc…"

"I think it is a most excellent idea."

Tony could only stare at him in shock. Banner however seemed delighted. "Thor! Thank you! I'm so glad your on board with my idea. Can I ask why?"

"The Captain is one of us. Our comrade. Our friend. A celebration of his birth would be a most excellent way of showing our affections for him."

Well if Thor was on board Tony had to be as well. And I guess it wasn't the most horrible thing in the world. It just inconvenienced him a bit. And I guess he can overreact to things that inconvenience him. Though he was not sure why Banner was in such a fuss about this. "Well Doc, when did you want to throw this party?"

"I…uh…tonight. That's why I was being a bit difficult. He only let it slip that his birthday was today and…you do throw the best parties in…well anywhere."

Tony knew he was playing at his ego but he does have a soft spot for the good but scary doctor so of course he would help. He had been emotionally closer to the doctor then he has been with anyone in well…ever. And he wasn't bad to look at.

"Oh thank you Tony!" He leaped across the couch to hug him. Tony was surprised and Thor was laughing in his deep and sexy way. "Well Doc, it is hard to say no to you. Your kind of my best friend."

Banner arrived around 12 and they finished setting up around 4. Once they were done setting up they called in everyone for the surprise. Steve was going to show up a half hour after everyone else got there. He was definitely thoroughly surprised. He even seemed to be having a good time. There were drinks and fun party games all courtesy of Tony. Thor made the cake. Chocolate of course. That awkward conversation aside it was actually a pretty fun night. Around 3am all the guests left and Tony and Thor were left alone. Tony wanted to finish their talk but at the same time…he felt it could wait just a little bit longer.

They were relaxing on the couch and Tony slid into his lap straddling him. He saw the pleasant surprise in Thor's eyes and took that as his sign to continue. He kissed him passionately, his tongue making its way into Thor's hot wet mouth. He moaned when he felt Thor's member press up against his ass. His hands slid up Thor's shirt taking in everything he could. His skin was so soft yet his body was almost as hard as a rock. A very pleasant combination. Before long Tony was pinned to the couch under Thor having his clothes stripped off. Once Tony was naked Thor got up and walked to the kitchen leaving Tony ever so confused. When he returned he had with him chocolate frosting, whip cream, sprinkles, and cherries.

"Thor…are you trying to turn me into a cake?"

"Is that a problem?"

"I…suppose not…"

Thor started with the frosting, coating on Tony's nipples, naval, slowly making it to his aching cock. He repeated this process with the whip cream, sprinkles, and cherries. Once Tony was properly covered in Thor's choice of dessert items he looked down at his "cake" with a smirk.

"Now we can begin the fun!" The Thunder God made his way down Stark's body slowly licking and lapping and making Tony squirm and quietly moan. When he got to his throbbing member Tony's hands went straight to Thor's long blond locks. Everything he did was to tease him and by Odin's beard it worked. Slowly licking around the head and taking him in his hot wet mouth in the slowest possible way…and that thing he did with his tongue while taking him in…It was starting to become too much for Tony and he was becoming desperate for some relief so he tried to thrust into the Asgardian's mouth to no avail…he hadn't even noticed that Thor had restrained his hips…that blond bastard. Smarter than he looks. The teasing kept on and Tony realized that he probably was waiting for him to ask….for something…Thor really is smarter than he looks.

"Th….Thor….Please…do more than tease me…" His face was so red he thought it might melt the couch.

"I'd thought you'd never ask." He positioned himself at Tony's entrance and slowly thrusted until he was fully in Tony. He leaned forward and kissed him. Tony moaned in surprise. Hungrily kissing him back with all the passion he could muster. And once Tony had time to adjust he didn't hold back. He could thrust faster than people on Midgard and had much better accuracy. Tony was seeing stars. All he could do was moan Thor's name. It wasn't long before Tony was cumming and Thor wasn't far behind. He collapsed onto Tony feeling very content.

By this point it was 4am and they were both pretty exhausted. Tony was the first to fall asleep under Thor on the couch. Thor seeing Tony fast asleep just snuggled up to him and joined him. He knew Tony wanted to talk but he was obviously much to exhausted to do so this evening. They would just try again the next morning.

And that Tony did. After they awoke the next day and Thor had made them breakfast of course, he has become quite the cook, Tony did in fact want to have their talk. So they sat down on the couch and Thor waited for Tony to start.

"Well…before…Thor, you said there was something I should know?"

"Yes. I did not wish to hurt you but you must know. And I will not lie to you. I cannot stay here in Midgard. I must return to Asgard. I only have maybe one year at most here on Midgard. As I am needed home."

"One year. I see."

"Are you upset? Have I offended you?"

"What? No…its just…I mean I knew this couldn't be anything too serious or permanent. Just when its becomes a reality…I guess its just a little hard to accept. But if I have at least one year with you I can be a happy man."

"You are ok with that arrangement?"

"Yes. Even if it is only one year a lot can happen in one year. And I would rather spend one year with you Thor then have you leave now."

"So I will spend my one year here on Midgard here with you. I will be yours and yours alone for this one year. Then I will return to Asgard. But do not think I will forget you Tony. For I will not. I have much enjoyed my time with you and more time will forever put you in my heart. Do not think you meant nothing to me."

Tony didn't know what to say to that. He hadn't wanted to cry in front of Thor but it was kind of happening anyway. As he was lacking words he just hugged the God of Thunder. "Thank you Thor. You will always have a place with me in my heart as well. Though I'm not sure what exactly ill do when you leave…"

"What about the doctor?"

"Banner?"

"Yes. You two seem very close and I'm almost positive he has what you would call a crush on you. And you both speak that weird…language."

Tony laughed. He meant all the scientist things they talked about. Tony had never really thought about Banner like that but it wasn't out of the question. He had become his best friend. He had plenty of time to worry about that. But for now he would just enjoy his time with Thor.

For that one year Tony and Thor spent their days enjoying each other's company. Having fun together, having sex, cooking, just relaxing, and anything else that one might think of. When Thor left he even made him a cake. With the same ingredients as the night they spent on the couch, which made Tony chuckle. And when he left Tony was a bit hurt as he just lost someone close but he knew it was inevitable. Though he did come back to visit once in a while they never dared pick up where they left off. As was how they wanted it. He did work with Banner on his research on how to control his big green rage monster. So they were spending a lot of time together. And they were getting very close to an answer as well as each other. It took some time for Tony to get over the loss of Thor but he did give Banner a chance. And he found he was happy with him. And content. He could never replace Thor but he found a new kind of happy with the doctor and Tony was just fine with that.
