He’s not Dying, He’s Just Pregnant

Part 2

CW: Nudity

A side story to Nice Guys Finish Last

Cap heard my call from the bathroom and walked towards it. Tony frantically thought of how he was gonna hide the pregnancy test. Trash? No. Cabinet? No. Behind the shower curtain? Yes. Tony quickly tossed it behind the shower curtain and it made a little clink on the tile. Just in time for Cap to open the bathroom door and find his soulmate standing awkwardly next to the toilet. Cap furrowed his eyebrows together and said “Do I want to know?”. Tony thought on it for a second before saying “No”. “I’m gonna go shower upstairs, care to join me?” Cap had just got back from a mission and he was sweaty and dirty. Tony let out a sigh of relief and said “Yes! Let’s go!”

After the shower, Cap went to the kitchen to make them some dinner. He was starving, so he started preparing steaks.

Tony took his time getting dressed. Being pregnant made him move just a little slower. His whole body was aching. Eventually he got down to the kitchen. He could smell everything. Even the 2 week old chinese in the fridge. The overwhelming smells of the kitchen was making Tony nauseous. He tried to hold out for as long as he could, but then his body got the better of him and he puked in the trash.

Oh no, not again!

“Christ Tony are you okay?!” Cap shouted after him. He stooped what he wss doing and immediately ran after Tony. Tony heaved one more time and this time Cap had his back.

“Let me get you a water. Go have a seat” Cap said in his Avenger voice. Cap got the water and handed it to Tony. He took a seat next to him and said “what’s going on with you babe? You’ve been like this since….” his voice trailed off. He was starting to put the pieces together. “…since the party a few days ago. Wha-What did you do?!” Cap stammered. He was turning into a combination of angry and concerned. He knows his boyfriend and he knows how he can get when he’s had too much. I mean, there were times that Tony disappeared that night. Lord know what he go into. He didnt want to think about that.

“What do you mean what did you do? What are you implying Steve?!” Tony said slightly irritated.

“I’m not implying anything, but I guess there must be something to imply!” Cap shouted back.

Tony got so frustrated that he started crying. Those pregnancy hormones were starting to kick in. Cap was confused. What the hell is going on right now? He thought to himself.

“Tony? Babe? I’m sorry. We got off on a tangent. I want you to tell me what’s hurting you. I want to help you Tony.” Cap looked at him with those sweet blue eyes of his. Tony turned his gaze to meet Steve’s. It’s always hard not to get lost in each other’s eyes. Tony relaxed enough to tell him what’s up.

“Steve, I’m pregnant” Tony said finally. He could feel his ears getting hot with anticipation of how his lover will respond. Cap sat there for a second thinking about what Tony just said.

“Are you sure?” he asked

“The test was positive” Tony said, starting to nibble at the edge of his fingers.

“Have you seen a doctor yet?”

“Not yet. This is pretty bizarre. I don’t know who to go to.”

They both thought on it for a minute, then Cap got an idea.

“Duh, Tony we know a doctor! Doctor Strange!” Cap said excitedly.

“I don’t think he can help…”

“It’s worth a shot! Besides, if he can’t help, I’m sure he knows someone who can!” Cap said with a can-do attitude. Even now, at home facing a sticky situation, he still manages to be the captain. So they packed a bag and boarded Tony’s private jet en route to New York.
