Summary: "How was your date?"
~~~
“So how was it?” Natasha asked Steve the next afternoon while they were running.
“Fine,” was all he said.
“What does that mean?” she asked. “Did he hit on you? Not hit on you?”
Steve slowed down. Natasha followed suit.
“No, it was really fine. He was sweet. I just hope I didn’t screw up.”
“How?”
“I didn’t ask him in at my door.”
“Oh my god! He walked you to your door! How precious!” Natasha was laughing. “Both of you are so cute. You didn’t screw up. Call him. Ask him out this time.” She started to run again, paused and asked him, “Did he kiss you?”
Steve didn’t answer. His face gave the answer away.
“Is he a good kisser?” she asked.
Banner noticed Tony was unusually quiet.
“What’s going on, Tony?”
“Um, nothing. I sort of dated Rogers and -”
“Finally! We’ve all been hoping you’d ask him.”
“Not sure if he wants to see me again.”
“Why not?”
“Well, you never know how a date went.”
“How many ‘dates’ have you been on?” Bruce asked.
“Hmm, two maybe.”
“So ask him out again. All he can do is say yes or no, right?”
Tony looked crestfallen. “Yeah.”
