Seduction Gone Wrong
"Steve, what are you doing?" Pepper had to ask after, once again, being forced to witness her sweetheart's latest attempts at home renovation.
"Just fixing these rusty pipes." He grunted, moving about in their kitchen, planning on doing God knows what to the sink.
Pepper watched him disappear under the sink and had to fight off the groan that threatened to claw its way out of her throat.
For the past two weeks, Steve had decided that their apartment needed fixing. Pepper didn't mind him doing such work around the house. But, what she did mind, were the facts that Steve felt the need to fix things that don't even need fixing to begin with and that he wasn't the best at such work due to his strength.
At first, she must admit, she found it to be extremely hot. Who wouldn't? The mere thought of seeing Captain America wearing a simple white tank top and some casual jeans while getting all sweaty and dirty would be more than enough to send even the most apathetic women to their knees.
However, when the shower got broken and she had to wash her hair with cold water for two whole weeks, she found Steve's home renovation projects exasperating rather than stimulating.
With that in mind, she started dialing the now very familiar number of the plumbing service company.
She pressed the call button only when she heard the familiar sound of a pipe breaking, following Steve calling her in a tone of voice that she got to know oh so well during the past two weeks.
With a sigh, she walked towards her man who was both wet and covered with leftover food.
Tony answered the phone on the first ring.
"I hate you and I will never listen to you ever again for the rest of my life."
"Why? What did I do?"
*Beep* *Beep*
"Hello? Steve? Cap?"
Tony looked at the phone in confusion before shrugging his shoulders and continued to sip on his drink.
