Tony's PoV -

     It's a normal night for me. Some random naked chick lays in bed snuggled next to me after we just had sex. I wiggle away from her careful to not wake her. I change back into my clothes and make my way down to my lab. It's late. I look at my watch, 1:23 A.M. I sigh knowing I won't be able to go back to sleep.

     I start working on my projects when I feel a gentle warmth in my chest. I smile at the feeling. I suddenly feel loved. I feel warm. I feel protected. I sit down at my desk to sketch out some blue prints. Sleep starts to sound nice when only moments ago it was a distant hope. I know that warm feeling has something to do with my change in sleep. I lay my head down on my desk. For years I've had this feeling come and go. I always welcome the feeling. Somehow I know it has something to do with my soulmate. The feeling holds a masculine energy with a gentle spirit but that's all I know about my soulmate. I swirl my finger around my arc reactor wondering if my soulmate can recuperate the warm feeling. My eyes drift closed and I fall asleep to the warm love of my distant soulmate.

Stephen's PoV -

It's dark. I'm not sure where I am but I can sense the presence of evil all around me. However, I can sense a small light in the darkness. I make my way towards the light and the closer I get the stronger the little light's energy becomes. It feels like my twin flame, my soulmate. I hurriedly make my way over to my twin flame. I've felt their presence for years but for all this time I have not been able to find him. Is now the moment I will meet the love of my life? The faster I run the farther my twin flame appears to be. It's as if he's in trouble. As if he's being taken from me. My pulse quickens. I want nothing more than to protect my twin flame. "My love, I'm here, I'll protect you!" I call into the darkness but I know my words are a lie. The light of my twin flame is slowly fading. In one desperate attempt I use all my magic to push away the evil darkness that is stealing my love from me.

I jolt awake from my nightmare. I sit up in bed and rub the sleep from my eyes. Cloak notices that I'm awake and flys onto my shoulders and wraps around me like a blanket. Cloak wipes the tears from my face. I didn't even realize that I was crying. I peer around the room. My room is a mess. My lamps are knocked over, a few of the windows are broken, papers and books are scattered on the floor. Around me orange sparks float into the air only to fade like embers. I must have cast a spell in my sleep. I've never done that before. Maybe that just proves how strong of a connection I have to my soulmate. I'll have to clean up this mess in the morning but I'm too tired and too emotional to do so now.

     I lay back down and cloak cuddles next to me. I pull a pillow close to my face and snuggle into it. How I wish I was snuggled into my twin flame's neck breathing in his sent instead of pathetically snuggling this pillow. I place a hand over my heart and rub circle over my skin. I cast a small spell of warmth and love to let my soulmate know that I'm thinking about him. I continue this for awhile before snuggling back into my pillow. Suddenly, I feel a calm warm feeling wash over me. My heart flutters. My soulmate is sending back his love. I melt into the touch and fall asleep to the lovely feeling.

Days turn into weeks and weeks turn into years. Throughout the cruel flow of time I relentlessly search for my soulmate. I know the feeling of his energy and I often wonder the streets of New York searching for him but I never find him. Each night I send him warmth and love. It's amazing that I feel so attached, so in love, with someone I've never meet.

Now I find myself on Titan. I just sacrificed the time stone to save Tony. I looked into the future. I know that I will disappear into dust in a matter of minutes. Still exhausted from my fight with Thanos I lean against a rock and try to mentally prepare myself for my inevitable doom. I place a hand over my heart and call out to my twin flame. I can't believe I've meet my end and I haven't even meet my soulmate. I will miss him. My lover must be sending his love back to me. Warmth consumes me and my heart flutters. I melt into the love of my soulmate. I'm about to close my eyes and enjoy the feeling till I vanish but I notice Tony twirling a finger over his arc reactor. I muster enough strength to read his energy. Warm. Gentle. Masculine but with a feminine touch. Weak from my fight, I stumbled over to my lover. "Tony... what are you doing?"

Tony blushes and stops recuperating my act. The warmth slowly fades from around me. "Oh, this is a little embarrassing. It's a little thing my soulmate and myself do. Somehow he can feel the warmth and love of my touch..." Tony explains.

I smile and gently place a hand over my heart and cast our spell of love and warmth. Tony notices my gesture and seems confused. Seconds later he lets out a small gasp no doubt feeling the effects of my spell. "You're my soulmate?!" Tony asks but I'm sure he already knows the answer.

I smile and cuddle next to him. I can feel his wonderful energy all around me. "I've been looking for you for all of my life and now I've found you."

Tony snuggles into me and gently caresses my face. "I love you, Stephen."

I break the distance between us and plant a kiss to his lips. It's everything I ever imagined. It's like firework exploding in my chest. Excitement, warmth, love, and mostly his energy washes over me in waves. I'm sure Tony is feeling the same thing. We break the kiss, "I love you too, Tony."

Pain rushes over me. I look down to see that I'm disappearing as I predicted I would. Tony gasps and holds me tighter as if his love could keep me alive. "Tony, my love, listen. I'll be fine and I will see you again someday soon. This is not the end for us. It was the only way..."

Everything is white. I can't feel Tony's energy around me. I try to hold back tears but fail. Cloak once again wipes away my sadness. "You're here too, Cloaky..."

The Cloak flaps happily in response. "I'm here too Mr. Dr. Strange," I look behind me to see Peter, the spider kid.

"Are you my other dad now? You and Mr. Stark seem to have gotten pretty close," Peter states and hugs me.

The poor kid is sobbing. He misses his dad as much as I do. "I guess so," I smile at the idea of raising Peter with Tony, "don't worry, we will see Tony again."

I help Peter cope the rest of the day. That night I lay down on the white ground and cast my small spell to Tony. I wonder if he can feel it even though I'm trapped in the soul stone. I receive my answer soon enough when Tony's love washes over me. Once again I find myself wishing that I was laying with Tony, my twin flame. "I love you..." I call out into the white abyss.
