The Things We Do For Love
Narrator's POV
Tonight, I'm gonna have myself a real good time
"Uh, Dr. Strange, you have another-"
"Not now Cynthia." Stephen said.
"Strange." A harsh voice came.
It was his boss, Mr. Crackle.
"You get your ass back in that office, unless you want to lose your job!"
"I quit!" Stephen ran past him and out of the clinic, loosening his tie, running in his shiny back shoes, rolling up his sleeves to beat the suns's heat.
Nothing was gonna stop him now.
I feel alive and the world I'll turn it inside out, yeah
And floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now don't stop me
'Cause I'm having a good time, having a good time
I'm a shooting star, leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car, passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go
There's no stopping me
Stephen past a park, doing a quick hopscotch with a few kids, laughing.
The kids smiled and waved at him.
He turned around, running backwards and bowed before turning back to his destined path.
I'm burnin' through the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you
Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
Don't stop me now
If you wanna have a good time, just give me a call
Don't stop me now
Don't stop me now
I don't want to stop at all
He took on the side walk, doing a cartwheel across, falling, but getting back up, laughing.
He felt like a kid again.
"Hey!"
"Watch it!"
"Sorry. Excuse me. Excuse me. Sorry." Stephen said as he squeezed through the crowds of people on the streets.
He ran across a plaza, making pigeons fly away. He chased a few, laughing as the flapped their wings all around him.
Stephen took his phone out of his pocket and called Pepper.
"Hel-"
"Pepper!"
"Stephen, yes? What is it?"
"Where are you?"
"At the airport."
"Is Tony with you?"
"No, he decided to take the private airport."
"Okay. Thanks."
"Stephen, what's-"
Stephen hung up sticking His hands out in front of him to open a portal, looking like a kid after an ice cream truck.
Yeah, I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite, I'm out of control
I am a sex machine, ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh explode
He ran right through, and arrived at the airport. "Hah..." He bent over for a breather. "Whoo!" He let out a breath. He saw Happy walking around with a phone to his ear. "Ah!" He gasped. "Happy! Happy!" He called, running toward him.
"Hold on." Happy said, pulling the phone away from his ear and squinting at the distance.
A man was running toward him.
"Probably a fan that just found out Tony's leaving." He said, turning his back to the running man and closing the gates. "Anyway, you were saying..."
"Dammit!" He stomped on the ground. "Hah!"
A light bulb went off in his head.
"I'm the Sorcerer Supreme." He said. "I'm a wizard. I'M A WIZARD!" He said proudly, opening a portal to the other side of the gate. "Oh, yeah wizard power." He said. "Oh wait...ah, Tony." He said to himself. "Tony, Tony...where would I be if I were the richest man in the-" He stopped when he heard an engine in the distance.
Around the corner if a building came a jet, straight for him.
"Holy sh-"
///0///0
"Hah..." Tony sighed, leaning back in his seat on the private jet.
Mr. Stark
"What is it Jarvis?"
You have an incoming call from Ms. Potts
"Put her through." He said, sadly.
Yes sir
"Tony." Pepper's voice came through speakers on the jet.
"Yes?"
"Have you seen Stephen?" She asked.
"Uh, yeah. Tall, good hair, awesome facial hair, beautiful smil-"
"No. I mean as of right now."
Tony raised a brow. "Uh, no. No. Why?" He asked.
"He called me, wondering where you were and..."
Tony's attention was driven away from Pepper and toward something outside the window.
There was somebody running down the runway.
It looked a lot like some one he knew.
A significant other.
"Is that..." Tony asked, looking closer. "...Stephen?" He gasped in realization. "You know what Pepper, I think I have seen him. I'll have to call you later."
"Tony he's-"
"Stop. Stop the jet." He said.
"Sir, we're about t-"
"You better find a way to stop this jet, or I'll jump off." Tony said.
///0///0
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Stephen said, trying to run out of the jet's way, but it only seemed to follow him. "I'm fucked!" He jumped out of the runway and to the green grass. "Hah, hah, hah..." He gasped for air, sitting on the green grass with a hand to his chest.
Screeching from the jet's tires caught his attention.
It was stopping.
He watched it come to a complete stop.
The staircase lowered.
The short love of his life made his way down the staircase. "Stephen?"
"Tony!" Stephen called.
Tony lifted his shades. "Stephen!"
"Tony!" Stephen got up and raced toward Stephen.
"Stephen!" Tony tan toward him. "Please don't punch me this time!" He said.
"Mm!" Stephen jumped on Tony, knocking them both to the ground.
"What? Stephen what are y-"
Stephen cut him off with a kiss.
Tony was very confused and surprised, but wasn't gonna let this kiss go. He had been gone two years without kissing the love of his life and wasn't gonna pass it up. He held Stephen close.
Stephen pulled away from the kiss, looking down at Tony. "You are the biggest part of me."
"And you're mine."
"Oh, Tony." Stephen buried his face into Tony's neck. "Please don't go away." He said, sniffling.
"Stephen..." Tony said, holding him close.
Stephen pulled looked at him. "You held my hand and promised to never let go."
"And that's a promise I'm keeping for the rest of my life." Tony said, smiling and putting their foreheads together. "I never want to hear you say "I want it that way"."
