"Tony Stark does not get dumped! I'm the one doing the dumping, you should know this by now, geez man and you call yourself my best friend!" Tony complained as he let his body slump down onto his bed. He offered Steve the bottle, his friend had always needed a push to drink. A part of him wanted Steve to get drunk for his date with Natasha. He didn't want to be alone in his empty house and had hoped Steve would spend the night with him. However It was an important date for them, he couldn't remember why even if his life depended on it. Like he ever could remember an important date. The only reason he remembered Christmas was because how much his friend beamed whenever it came around that time of year. But he did remembered what he gotten Steve, the professional art supplies the well trained guy couldn't take his eye's off. He had of course never said anything nor dared asked his parents for something that expensive but for Tony it was nothing, it was like getting himself a pair of new shoes. Steve had thought the present was too much, but after a while they had settled with Steve cleaning Tony's car to pay some of it back. However they never agreed on for how long. Maybe he should relieve Rogers from his duty, Tony reminded himself.
"Nah, it's cool man, I was thinking to take it easy for a while. Besides I heard that you could get great orgasms during your sleep if you don't have sex for a while. Something you can tell me about Rogers?" He didn't want to admit it but his breakup with Johnny had been harder than he originally thought. He liked the guy and he thought it was going well. The sex was great and he enjoyed spending money on him, what more did you want from Tony Stark? However Steve made it all better with his stupid jokes and his pure smile. His best friend was way too good for him, and here he was wishing him ill on his date. He must be the worst best friend in history. Steve didn't deserve him or his fucked up shit. Steve Rogers, perfect human being.
"Let's talk about you, I know this date is important for you. You should my card and treat her with something fancy. You deserve it" The Rogers weren't as well off as his own family. He knew the family was struggling to go around, and still Tony ate their food. It made him feel like crap, the Rogers were the nicest people he ever met. Sarah was constantly trying to feed him up while she complained that he was too skinny.
Even if they were struggling they had way more compassion than his own sorry excuse of a family. This was his way to thank Steve for his friendship and his mother's hospitality. He knew his friend would never accept his money, but a part of Tony hoped he would do it for this date. Maybe it would take away some guilt from his own heart. Worse case Steve would be cleaning his car for another half year. Though Tony had to admit, he was getting accustomed to how his car shining now a days.
"Get her something nice while you're at it, girls loves shiny stuff. They are just like crows."
