The genius had only ever bought Disney movies so they could watch them with Peter but the child in question was spending two weeks in Florida with his aunt and uncle.

He clicked on Finding Nemo before leaning back into the couch cushions and letting the sounds of the movie wash over him. He couldn't sit here surrounded by the smell of grease and metal and expensive cologne and not long for the love of his life.

He picked up a pillow burying his face in it and inhaling the smell of Tony when, "there you guys are." His head shot up whipping around to the entryway so fast he almost gave himself whiplash.

"Tony?" Steve looked up at his boyfriend and almost sighed in relief to see him smiling back.

The engineer paused by the couch and scoffed, "Oh! For the love of god, you're watching this crap?" He flopped down next to Steve sliding his feet in the blond's lap. "Have I taught you nothing?"

Steve couldn't help himself he grabbed Tony's ankles using them to pull the smaller man across the couch and into his warm embrace. His hands slid around his waist and he buried his nose in the brunet's hair.

"I missed you too Steve," Tony whispered gently kissing his nose.

They didn't last though the movie, they just headed back to Tony's room to call it a night.

***

It was well after noon when Steve woke up the next day. He was perfectly content to spend the rest of the day spooning his boyfriend of three years. Steve pulled the smaller man against him burying his nose in Tony's neck and breathing in the heaven of his sweaty skin.

A laugh bubbled up within him as realization hit him square in the chest. It's wasn't the smell of sweat but the sweet scent of sex.

"Mornin Cap," Tony groaned rolling over and facing the blond. He basked in the glow of the sun filtering through the windows, his skin still glistening from their less than clean activities the night prior.

"You smell like me," Steve murmured into his chest his lips ghosting over the arc reactor scar. "We should take a shower."

"We just woke up and you're already asking for shower sex?" Tony laughed pulling Steve up and gently kissing his nose. "My ass and I are going to have to politely decline, darling."

"Withholding sex?" Steve licked his lips before shooting Tony a wide grin, "on our anniversary," he leaned back letting the sheet fall away from his naked chest. "That is just cruel."

"Steven Grant Rogers," Tony sat up and smirked at him cupping his face to punctuate each word with an over exaggerated kiss.

"Anthony Edward Carbonell-Stark" Steve mocked grabbing his jaw and tilting it up to suck at the skin there. His other hand slid down his waist to gently palm his ass and rock into him.

"I love you so much," Tony continued gently pulling away to meet Steve's gorgeous azure eyes. "You make me a better person even if you steal my bacon in the morning and shove your feet in my face when we watch those crappy Disney movies you love."

Steve snickered licking a stripe up Tony's neck and gently biting his lower lip before pulling away to tease him, "save some for the proposal will you?"

Tony rolled his eyes leaning over the bed and digging through the pockets of his jeans. He produced a black velvet box and popped the lid maneuvering into a shaky kneel on the bed. "Marry me?"

Steve brought a hand to his mouth looking down at the ring and then to Tony nervously looking up at him.

"Any day now Cap, not everyone is twenty-five, my knees are starting to hurt," Tony griped shifting his weight and almost toppling over

"Of course," Steve grabbed Tony around the waist pulling him into a strong embrace. "Of course I'll marry you, I love you Tony."

A grin broke out on the smaller man's face as he looked up into Steve's eyes slipping the ring on his finger before tenderly kissing the knuckles on his left hand. He was enamoured with the way the metal looked against Steve's pale skin.

Steve held his hand up in the light, the band was smooth made up of two metals hammered into interlocking gears. As Steve ran his finger down the side of the ring the gears rotated and he was immediately fascinated by the movement.

Tony caught his question without him asking it. "The shinier metal is Vibranium, I had the others distract you while I borrowed your shield and skimmed a little off the side. The darker metal is the shrapnel that used to reside inside my chest, a piece of my heart, if you will."

Steve leaned forward capturing Tony's lips and sliding his arm around his waist. When he pulled away he met Tony's eyes shooting him a grin. "It's perfect. I adore it."

Tony smiled leaning his head against Steve's shoulder and inhaling deeply, "I'm happy you're happy." Tony grabbed his phone off the nightstand and pulled the blanket over Steve's lap so they could take a decent picture. Steve held up his hand showing off the ring and Tony couldn't resist pressing a tender kiss on his cheek.

The picture showed up on Tony's personal Instagram four hours later with the caption "Finally."
