Finally finished!

Darcy ran around barking orders, it was crunch time. Five hours till the big plunge and Darcy was taking it harder than Steve and Tony were. People would have thought that she was the one getting married.

Darcy had been in full diva, best man/maid of honor horror mode for the better part of five months. Steve and Tony had stepped aside and let the brunette take the reigns. The truth was, Steve didn't care where the wedding was, who was there, or what they wore, just as long as he and Tony both said I do.

He'd done the big wedding before, he wasn't hard pressed to do it again. However, when the sassy little brunette with the big chocolate eyes batted her eyelashes at him, he caved. Darcy had a way of getting him to do almost anything she wanted, he wasn't even remotely shocked to see that she had gotten her way again.

"Okay, the flowers have all been set up, the tents are being built, Central Park has been emptied of all non-essential wedding personnel. What am I forgetting?" Darcy looked around the small tent they had set up for clothing changes and then at her clipboard. Her dark brown eyes scanning the never ending list of things she felt she personally had to attend to.

"Breathing would be a good place to start." Steve slipped his dark blue blazer onto a hanger and tugged at his white tie.

"What are you doing!" Darcy screeched, "You need to be getting dressed not undressed."

Steve moved across the tent to where darcy stood in the opening, "You, need to relax. The wedding isn't for another five hours. Pepper and Bruce have everything under control on Tony's end, and I would rather not have to explain to Johnny why I had to put his girlfriend, my best lady, in a sleeper hold." Steve put his hands on Darcy's shoulders and smiled. He was only half joking about the sleeper hold.

Darcy took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "You're right. Of course you're right. I'm acting like a crazy person." Darcy rested her head against Steve's chest and took another deep breath. "Jesus, you smell good."

Steve chuckled, Darcy never passed up an opportunity to nuzzle her nose into Steve's chest.

"I need to relax and finish doing my hair and makeup. Can you get Johnny to finish the list while I get ready?"

Steve nodded and took the clipboard from her. "This day wouldn't be anything near as special, if it weren't for you." He said and kissed the top of her head. "Thank you, for everything." Steve left the tent to find Johnny.

The music started, Steve watched the crowd of people filing into Central Park to take their seats. Leave it to Tony to rent out all of Central Park for their wedding. Tony had jokingly told him it was the only place he could get married and bury Darcy's body and no one would know. Darcy had been driving him particularly batty that day.

Steve was standing at the makeshift altar in his dark blue suit, his burgundy dress shirt and his white tie. Darcy had picked the colors for the wedding, Tony and he hadn't cared at the time. When he asked Darcy why she had chosen those colors, she had told him she liked him in blue. He was pretty sure Darcy just enjoyed seeing him look patriotic in the red, white, and blue.

The music cut out suddenly as the last of the people took their seats. The typical wedding music was drowned out by AC/DC's Shoot to Thrill. While everyone else was looking around, Steve looked up, toward the sky. Tony landed gently beside him at the altar to gasps of the guests. The gold and red Iron Man suit everyone was so accustom to seeing shrunk down and slid off Tony's body to reveal a burgundy suit, blue dress shirt and a gold tie. Darcy liked her play on colors that was for sure. Happy grabbed the suitcase and settled back into his seat in the front row.

Tony smiled and waved at the crowd and winked at Steve as the wedding march started playing again. Darcy and Bruce stood at the end of the aisle, Bruce's smile told Steve he was trying to contain his laughter, while Darcy's told him she was going to murder a billionaire genius.

"You know you're a dead man, right?" Steve muttered under his breath as Darcy and Bruce walked arm in arm down the aisle.

"So long as she waits till after the 'you may kiss your husband' part, it was worth it." Tony smiled as Bruce and Darcy went their separate ways. Bruce taking his spot next to Tony wearing the same dark blue suit as Steve, but with a white dress shirt and burgundy tie.

Darcy took her spot beside Steve, her long dark blue gown was studded with burgundy jewels on the bodice. Her hair was long and wavy, pinned back by a clip in the shape of Steve's shield.

The music fell silent and a hush ran through the crowd. Steve could hear the clicking of cameras, but he tuned them out. Instead he focus solely on the man in front of him. A man he had gone through so much with.

The justice of the peace went through his speech without Steve noticing. It wasn't until it came time to say his vows that Steve realized the wedding was close to being over.

Steve cleared his throat as Darcy handed him the ring, a solid vibranium ring with a sapphire, a ruby and a diamond in the center. It looked just like his ring, only it held the colors of his shield instead of the colors of Tony's arc reactor. Steve turned fully to look at Tony, a small smile on his face.

"We've had our ups and downs. We've battled demons, monsters, and each other. We've seen each other at our best and at our worst and still we stand beside each other. Anthony Edward Stark, you make me a better person. You push me to limits I've never reached, some, I never want to reach again." There was a soft chuckle from the audience and Tony smiled. "I love you, everything about you. I promise never to pull you away from your work, unless the world needs saving, you're seriously ill or you haven't slept in at least three days. I promise to accept all of your faults." Tony scoffed and the crowd laughed. "But most of all I promise to love you, for who you are, and what you are, as a whole and never try to change you. You are my ever after." Steve slid the ring on Tony's finger and smiled.

Tony turned to Bruce, took the ring and a deep breath, "I never thought I'd make it here." He laughed softly and Steve smiled. "I never saw myself getting married. This wasn't in the cards. But now that we're here, I know it because of you. Before you, there was never anyone I could ever see myself saying I do to. I'm my own worst enemy, but you make me better than I am. You always have. You push me to be more. You see in me something no one else has, you see possibilities. You understand me, even in my half sleep deprived, crazy inventor stages." Steve laughed, Tony was always in that stage. "You're my saving grace and the one I know I can always depend on." Tony paused for a second and smiled. "I'm not the type of guy to make promises, but you know I can and would give you the world if it's what you wanted. I love you Steven Grant Rogers. You're my happiness. You're my light. You're my ever after." Tony slid the ring on Steve's finger, and they both turned to look at the justice of the peace.

"Do you, Steven Grant Rogers, take Anthony Edward Stark to be your husband?"

Steve looked at Tony. "I do."

"Do you, Anthony Edward Stark, take Steven Grant Rogers to be your husband?"

Tony turned to Steve. "I do."

"By the power vested in me, by the State of New York, I now pronounce you Husbands. You may kiss."

Steve was pulled flush against Tony's body, the grip on his tie held him in place. His lips crushed into Tony's and he melted into the embrace, kissing his husband for the first time felt new and different, but the same.

The guests cheered and Clint whistled. He heard Johnny yell "get a room" and laughed.

Tony pulled away and they stepped off the altar, Steve expected them to walk down the aisle, greet their guests and take a limo to the reception on the other side of the park. Instead Tony stepped into his Iron Man suit and pulled Steve tight against him.

"Hold on," he said through the mask. "See you guys at the reception." Tony yelled as he took off, Steve holding on as tight as he could. He had flown with Tony many times, but never in a suit and dress shoes.

"Anthony Edward Stark!" Tony's eyes popped out of his head.

"You're so dead," Steve chuckled. "I should just never get married, first one was a disaster, now I'm going to be a widower before the reception."

"This is so not funny, I need a place to hide." Tony looked around the park, eyes scanning for a place he thought would save him from the small woman on the warpath shouting for him.

"You knew she was going to kill you." Steve stated simply but pointed to under the table. "You could hide under there."

"Are you kidding me? This is a custom made Tom Ford." Tony motioned the length of his body, indicating his suit.

Steve rolled his eyes. "And she will assume you had that reaction and would never consider hiding in such a trivial place."

Tony thought for a second and then dove under the table. Steve laughed and shook his head. Tony was always willing to buck the system, do exactly what wasn't expected of him, but it never ceased to amaze Steve how he never learned his lesson. No matter how many times Pepper had lit into him, Tony always found a way to make her mad. Darcy was no different.

"Where is he?" Darcy stormed over to where Steve was standing. Her high heels were in her hand and she was breathing harder than normal.

"Did you run?" Steve asked looking at Darcy in shock.

"Don't change the subject, Rogers! Where is that idiotic husband of yours?"

"I don't know, probably on the run. The wrath of Darcy Lewis is enough to make any man skip bail."

"You think you're funny don't you?" Darcy pointed her finger at Steve. "Did you have something to do with that entrance and exit? Did you know he was planning that?"

"Are you kidding? No way. I wouldn't risk being on the wrong end of your tirade. No that was all Tony. But Darc," Steve grabbed her hand, "could you not kill him until after the reception?"

There was still a lot to be done, a few things that Darcy didn't know about and Steve wanted to avoid the blood bath.

"Fine, but I will kill him."

Steve patted her on the shoulder. "I promise to let you. Now go find Johnny. I'm sure he wants to dance with his date."

Darcy walked off to find Johnny and Tony slid out from under the table.

"You promise to let her!" Tony said indignantly.

Steve laughed and pulled Tony close to him. "Wait till you give her her gift. I promise she won't want to kill you after that." Steve leaned down and captured Tony's lips with his own. The kiss was soft, smooth, and short.

"We should get out there, we have a flight to catch in a few hours." Tony grabbed Steve's hand and pulled him towards the crowd.

The reception was loud and busy, but organized. No speeches were given, just lots of dancing and drinking.

Steve stood back and watched as everyone danced and talked to each other, a small smile on his face. It was time to finish the reception so they could fly off to wherever they were going. Tony still hadn't told him. His eyes scanned the park trying to locate his husband. Thankfully, finding Tony was never too difficult, he was always the one surrounded by a crowd of people.

Steve made his way over to the was in the center holding Sharon Hogan, Pepper and Happy standing happily beside him.

"Steve! Steve, I want one!" Tony said looking down at the baby in his hands.

Steve's heart clenched, it was too good to be true, there was no way Tony was serious. Steve had resigned himself to never having kids. Instead he had decided to be the best uncle to Sharon that he could be, but it didn't change the fact that he did really want kids.

"Tony, a baby isn't a play thing, they are a lot of work." Steve said, a small sad smile on his face.

Tony looked up, the big grin on his face faltered for a second before it was fixed back on his face.

"I know that," Tony said looking back down at Sharon.

"I think it's time to do that thing we talked about." Steve said, trying to ignore the twist in his gut.

"Right," Tony handed Sharon back to Pepper and grabbed a glass and a knife from the table. "We will talk later," Tony said under his breath as he tapped the glass with his knife. "Steve and I want to thank all of you for joining us to celebrate our wedding. Thank you all for the support. But, there's one person, above every one, that deserves not just a thank you. Darcy Lewis, get your scary behind up here."

Darcy walked up to stand next to Tony, the look on her face a cross between confusion and shock.

"None of this would have happened without Darcy. There were times when I personally wanted to kill her, but her efforts were not lost on me. We owe her more than she could ever know. It's normal for the guests to give gifts to the couple, but we like to be different. Steve and I decided we would give a gift instead."

Tony pulled out a pair of tickets from his jacket pocket. "These are for you, and a second person of your choosing," Tony looked at Johnny and winked. "You may go anywhere in the world, everything is paid for by yours truly."

Darcy squealed and leaped on Tony, making him stumble back. Steve laughed, he had expected Darcy's reaction, Tony however, hadn't.

"I'm so glad Steve talked me out of killing you." She said jumping up and down.

"Ahhhh, yeah, about that..." Tony said nervously.

"Don't worry, all is forgiven. Now say goodbye, your limo is here to take you away."

Steve waved at the crowd and Darcy pushed both him and Tony towards the limo. Before they got in, Darcy wrapped her arms around Steve and hugged tightly.

"Thank you, for everything."

"Isn't that what I'm supposed to say to you?" he asked her as the limo door was opened and Tony slid inside.

"Probably, but it doesn't change the fact that I am so thankful to have you."

"Love you Darc, see you in a few weeks." He kissed the top of her head and got into the limo. The door shut and there was a tap on the hood just before the car started to drive away.

"Wow, I can't believe that's over. I swear I could sleep for days." Tony snuggled into Steve's side and sighed.

"I know what you mean, but I kind of want to talk to you about something."

"Oh, yeah. I suppose I should tell you where we are going huh? Well, we will be spending a few weeks enjoying the lush green countryside of Northern Ireland."

Steve smiled. "That sounds amazing, but that wasn't what I wanted to talk to you about."

Tony sat up straight and turned to look at Steve, "You have your "I'm being serious Tony" face on. I can't have done anything wrong already. We've only been married like five hours."

Steve laughed, "Five hours is plenty of time for you to cause trouble."

Tony shrugged his shoulder and nodded in agreement.

"But, you haven't done anything wrong. I just wanted to ask you about something you said earlier. When you were with Pepper, Happy and Sharon."

"About me wanting a baby?"

Steve swallowed and nodded. He had been fighting this conversation for a long time. He'd always wanted a family. With Julie he had considered talking to her about it, but the topic was not an easy one to broach. With Tony he figured there was no point in having the conversation. He knew Tony well enough to expect him not to be open to the idea. Their lives were so dangerous and bringing a child into it was foolish and irresponsible, but it didn't change the fact that he wanted one. He wanted a family that wasn't just a band of thrill seeking vigilantes. He wanted to be a father. He wanted to show the world he was more than just Captain America.

"Did you mean it? When you said you wanted a baby?" Steve asked, his voice quieter than he had expected.

Tony was silent for a long time, at least it felt like a long time to Steve and then he nodded. "I did. I do. I want a family with you. I want kids and I want a life outside of my work shop and outside of S.H.I.E.L.D. We could find a surrogate or we could adopt. That is..." Tony faltered. "That is, if it's something you want."

Steve pulled Tony into a firm kiss. "You have no idea how happy that would make me."

Tony smiled. "I will look into it more when we get home, but for now, it's just the two of us." Tony snuggled back into Steve's side and Steve sighed, content with the conversation he had finally had with Tony. It wasn't for sure, but they were going to take steps to building a big family.

Steve had everything he wanted. Life couldn't be better.

This series isn't over. There are still more stories planned with this storyline so put me on alert if you want more.
