[ He knows all he has to do is say the word and have Tony at his beck and call, doing anything for him, saying anything for him. And that's scary some days, knowing he has that power over him, knowing Tony has that power over him in return. But Steve's had people that he'd do anything for, all his life. So that part isn't the one that makes him feel dizzy with vertigo.
No, it's how unreasonable Tony could get when he wants to do something for Steve, when he wants to ensure Steve's happiness or his safety.
Someday, he thinks, that'll get them into a whole load of trouble. But today, he'll happily press more kisses to Tony's face, pepper them on his cheek and his nose and finally, his mouth. ]
I always will, sweetheart.
[ But then he furrows his brow. ]
Well, I love you. And I didn't even do anything. Just drove you home.
[ He takes Tony's hand and kisses the inside of his wrist, lays it gently on his cheek, cuddles into him so they can settle in for the night. Tony's not making a whole lot of sense right now but he often doesn't. And when he's drunk, he's at his most honest. It's not that he ever lies or really hides things from Steve, but he does want him to keep going because these are the most unfiltered, slightly inscrutable Tony thoughts he could possibly receive, and he treasures them. ]
