I missed my college AUs. I'm not as good at writing them- but it gives my brain a break. That really sounds terrible. Sorry. Deal with it.
The lab was filled with an eerie green glow that flickered around the room as Back in Black blared through powerful speakers. To the edge of the room was the source of the glow and noise as a masked man welded two copper plates together.
"Tony?" A black haired man padded softly into the centre of the room. "Tony?" He stopped only when he reached the other man's workbench, using his arm to shield his eyes from the blinding light. "TONY?!" Suddenly the music cut off and the man raised his mask, looking at the intruder.
"Brucey!" He put his tools down and pulled the welding mask right off. "What can I do for ya buddy?" He said, leaning back in his chair and stretching his legs out to rest his feet on the desk.
"Tony, you're not ready yet? You're giving Thor a ride today remember? We can't be late. Go get changed."
"It's Sunday already?"
"Tony, it's been Sunday all day."
"Well obviously."
"Go change."
"Nah." He stood up and grabbed the coat from the back of his chair. "Going like this. C'mon."
Bruce sighed as they left the room.
"See Bruce, told you we wouldn't be late."
"That's because you drive like a maniac."
"You coming?"
"No, I'll wait in the car. Just hurry up."
"Sure thing buddy." Tony said, jumping over the door of his convertible, not bothering to open it and ignoring Bruce's muttering of 'show off' under his breath with a smirk.
Swaggering up to the old house, Tony wondered why after four years of knowing the guy, he had never been to Thor's home before. The five friends, Tony, Bruce, Thor, and Clint, had all been through high school together, had graduated together, and had ended up and the same college. Sure, he and Thor hadn't been the closest of friends; while he and Bruce enjoyed science, Thor spent most of his time in sport with Steve and Clint, but it was still weird that he had never been here before. Tony's tangent was cut short as he reached the large wooden door with a big brass knocker in the middle, shaped like the head of a lion.
It was a large house, looked like it had a lot of land attached too. It wasn't exactly modern, but then it didn't look like it was about to fall down either. The large door was flanked by two marble pillars; supporting a porch and a covered area that seemed to run the entire front and side of the house. Tony looked at to the flash of a curtain jerking and then a window flying open.
"Are you going to just stand there or do you intend to knock?" Came the voice of a boy leaning out the window. Tony didn't have the chance to observe more than just pale skin, a dark shirt, and black shoulder length hair before it disappeared back inside again.
Through the open window, Tony heard the voice again, only further away this time. "Thor, one of your delinquent friends is here. This one couldn't even work out how to knock on the door."
Tony smirked and walked closer to the door, waiting for the muscular blonde to open it. He only needed to wait anther five minutes until Thor opened the door, his large bag of kit in hand. "Ready Buddy?"
"Lets go."
