Title: slow dancing in a burning room
Author/Artist: kiminsocks
Universe: MCU
Pairings/Characters: Steve/Tony
Rating: (T) for some language
Warnings: break-up?
Word Count: 2626
Summary:
Sometimes love isn't enough.

Steve is usually up hours before him, so it’s no surprise. Tony remembers how he used to leave little notes, “Going for a run, Love you, Steve,” and “Don’t you move, I’m bringing breakfast to you ;),” and “You look beautiful. I love you.”

He’s not even sure if Steve came to bed last night. It wouldn’t be the first time. They used to make it a point to sleep in the same bed, no matter how busy Tony is in the shop, or how much paperwork Steve has to fill out after a mission. It doesn’t seem so important now.

It’s been a long time since Steve left a note for him. Tony doesn’t blame him.
