A/N: Hello dear Avengers/Marvel fandom!

btw, this is my first (attempt at a) avengers fan fiction, and I never read the comics so it's pretty movie-verse.

And FYI, this is Tony/Steve!

This will be slashin later chapters!

So if you feel offended by the most natural act between two humans(or one human, one super-human) who happen to both be male, then feel free to leave now!^^

And to the others: enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters.

everything belongs to Marvel (and apparently Disney…)

A Lot Of Blushing

Tony, Steve, Clint and Natasha were sitting in the living room of The Avengers HQ eating breakfast, while Bruce and Thor were still asleep.

The guys started a conversation about Loki's children and somehow it turned into Tony and Clint mocking Steve for being a virgin.

"Seriously dude, you're like 90. It's about time you get some action!" Clint said, poking Steve on his bicep.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, the great Captain America, the star-sprangled man, desired by all... is a virgin." Tony sing-songed.

Steve shuffled his feet and started mumbling "I.. don't know ...how..."

"Don't you want to?" Clint interrupted.

"Wait, is that the problem? You want to but you don't know how?"

Tony grinned, looking from Steve to Clint and back.

"Uh-huh…"

"Well it's not like it's that hard!" Tony continued. "You know the basics though, right?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well do you know where to put your-" Clint started.

Steve was blushing furiously now and Natasha, who had tried to ignore them, seemed to finally take pity on Steve.

"Guys just leave it, you're being ridiculous!" She ordered and both Clint and Tony stopped teasing Steve, Tony sticking out his tongue at Natasha and Clint fake-pouting.

Steve gave her a grateful look so she nodded once in his direction and went to sit on the couch further away from the two idiots, silently telling poor Steve to do the same.

Just as Steve wanted to turn around and leave, a hand appeared on his shoulder.

"Hey man, sorry, we were just kidding, do whatever you want! And saving yourself for the one is totally okay too." Clint said with a genuine smile and then turned to walk with his bowl of cereal over to Natasha on the couch, who looked like she was about to punch him if he opened his mouth again.

"And you know, if you need someone to practice with…they say I'm a very skilled lover." Tony said with a wink and joined the others on the couch.

Steve wasn't looking at Tony and missed the sarcasm and humour in his voice, so he took his offer seriously.

He turned scarlet and rushed out of the room, ignored by the others who were focused on the TV.

~X~

Back in his room, he started pacing around trying to figure out how to… wait what did he want anyway?

Did he honestly want to ask Tony to show him how to have sex?

It sounded ridiculous, but he still seemed curious on how it worked.

Also, the thought of doing that with Tony was making it sound even more interesting.

But he couldn't just go to Tony's room and ask him to have sex with him, right?

They were both men! Does that even work? Is that even allowed?

Well Steve figured it was allowed, because he had seen it on TV once when he had accidentally sat on the remote and it changed to a "porno" channel Clint had told him about, which featured two men... well... doing stuff.

But surely Tony had been kidding, right?

And what if he hadn't, what if Steve went to his room and Tony would agree to do it?

Steve wanted to do this more that he would admit to himself and found himself in front of Tony's bedroom door an hour later.

It took him 5 minutes to dig up the courage to knock, and when he finally did, he was greeted by silence.

"Tony?" he tried, but again, silence.

Right, he must be in the living room.

But he can't go there now can he? Asking him about that in front of everybody?

No way!

With one last look at Tony's door, he went back to his room to plan his new approach at Tony.

What if Tony would laugh at him for not knowing what to do anyway, like at breakfast?

Maybe he should do some research first.

Steve looked around, unsure of what he was looking for, until he remembered Tony's voice-thingy "JARVIS".

"Uh…JARVIS? Are you there?"

"Yes, Mister Rogers, how can I help you?"

"I…um…can you research something for me?"

"Of course, sir!"

"Well… I want to know… how to have… sexual intercourse." Steve had whispered the word sexual but JARVIS heard him.

Steve could swear he had heard the AI chuckle slightly.

"Alright Sir, what kind of sexual intercourse?"

"Err… I want to know how to do… stuff… with a man." Steve felt very ridiculous and hid his face in his hands awaiting the AI to tell him he was disgusting and should go to jail for such a thought.

"One second Sir, I will put together a collection of articles and send it to your computer."

"Uh… I don't know how to use the comp-utor."

"Very well, then I shall read it to you, is that alright with Mister Rogers?"

"…Sure."

After two seconds of silence, the AI started reading the articles with a very monotone and robotic voice, which Steve was grateful for, because the stuff he was being read to was utterly embarrassing and Steve found himself sitting on his bed trying to hide his face.

When JARVIS had finished, he finally managed to not be too embarrassed to write himself a list of things he needed from the drugstore.

He thanked JARVIS and told him not to mention this to anybody.

Then, he put on his jacket and quietly rushed out of the building.

~X~

At the store, Steve tried to find his items of desire quickly before he could give in to the urge to run out of there again.

When he finally had them all, he dropped them in front of the cashier with burning cheeks and shaky hands.

The cashier, a twenty-something guy with greasy hair and glasses, gave him a cocky smirk and popped his gum. Steve had a hard time trying to look anything but nervous and leaned on the counter with his elbow, just to slip off a second later.

There was a kid behind him snorting at his clumsiness, so he decided to just stare at his shoes and wait 'til the guy was done checking Steve's purchases.

Finally done with packing the three tubes of lube and ten packs of condoms (Steve didn't know how much they'd need, since they were practicing and he hoped to do it more than once) and fled from the shop with a stern, or in his opinion "casual", look on his face.

~X~

When Steve got back to the Avengers HQ with lube and condoms in his white plastic bag, he ran up the stairs back to his room before the others could notice he was ever gone.

He took a long shower and got some pep-talk from both his mirror-self and JARVIS (which Steve wasn't sure he was okay with), and found himself in the hallway in front of Tony's room once again, but this time with fresh clothes, damp hair and his bag in hand.

He secretly hoped Tony wasn't there, and even more secretly hoped he was.

Before he could chicken out again, he raised his left hand and knocked with what would have been just a little more force for a normal human.

But since he was a super-soldier, his knock made the door crack and he was already preparing himself for the door to come off, when Tony opened it.
