It was another night that Steve couldn’t sleep. He wanted to do something that would help him get back to sleep, but he didn’t know what to do. He did know someone that could help. Steve rubbed the back of his neck as he looked up at the ceiling. Before a few days ago, he didn’t know anything about an AI, but now he lived with one. However, Jarvis was more of a person than an AI. He was different, like most of the things in Tony’s home.
“Um, Jarvis?”
“Yes, Master Rogers?”
Steve hated that he continued to jump at the voice. I’m sure it will take some time getting used to. “Is there anyone in the tower?”
“Dr. Banner is out with Ms. Romanov and Mr. Barton. Thor continues to reside at Asgard, but Master Tony is here.”
“Um, is he busy?”
“Not terribly so. I can send a request to him, if you would like?”
Steve knew that Tony didn’t mind talking the night before, but would he mind doing it again? Could he ask without being laughed out the tower or teased during meetings?
“Master Rogers?”
“Um, you can call me Steve.”
“Steve, is there something specific you would like to ask?”
“Yes, would Tony mind talking to me?”
“I doubt he would. Shall I ask him?”
“Um if it’s alright.”
Steve frowned when Jarvis fell quiet. He sighed and leaned against the wall in his room. He didn’t want to sound desperate, but he wanted someone to talk to; even if that person had an ego big enough to fill the whole country and beyond. He hoped Jarvis was right.
“Steve.”
“Yes Jarvis?”
“Master Tony is on his way.”
“Wait, he doesn’t have to come to my room.” Steve got up and walked to the door. He almost bumped into Tony.
“Hey, so Jarvis said you wanted to talk. I figured why not, I’m right across from you and I’m not doing anything right now. Beside, I’m quite flattered that you asked for me.” Tony grinned as he walked in the room.
Steve smiled and followed Tony inside.
Maybe he could get some sleep tonight.
