(Tony P.O.V)

"Yeah, I've been involved in a lot of Avengers missions," said Avila.

There was a brief silence. Tony squeezed Avila's hand. Suddenly she pulled away. Tony looked at her, confused. Had he done something wrong? But there was a playful, teasing glimmer in her eyes. She leapt into the air, golden wings sprouting from her back.

"Catch me if you can," she teased.

Tony tapped twice on his arc reactor and his suit appeared. He flew into the air after Avila, who was soaring high above. She climbed higher and higher, Tony chased her. Suddenly, she stopped, folded her wings, and shot downwards in an amazing, lightning-fast dive. Surprised, Tony dived after her. Avila rocketed on, gaining speed every second. Was she falling or flying?

"Stop!" Tony yelled, "you'll catch on fire!"

As soon as he said that, Avila burst into flames. Tony screamed, then realized that she was unharmed, a golden, transparent force field was protecting her from the fire. As Avila neared the ground, she pulled back up again, easing out of the dive in a graceful swoop. She hovered around four metres off the ground, waiting for Tony to catch up.

"Don't EVER do that to me again!"

"What?" Avila said teasingly, "I'm not stupid! I wouldn't just let myself burn."

Tony took her hands. "You scared me, though."

Avila laughed. Tony twirled her around, and she laughed even harder. He put his hands on her waist, and she put hers on his shoulders, and they twirled around and around, with an occasional lift. Avila was shrieking with laughter, and so was Tony. This was perfect. He wanted to stay here forever, dancing with Avila, high up in the bright blue sky.

They landed gently on the sand.

"Wow, look at that sunset," whispered Avila.

Tony turned to see the sun half-buried in the waves, a huge orange disk tossing colours across the darkening sky. Pinks, blues, yellow, oranges, reds, purples, blending together in perfect harmony, painted on the canvas of the sky. It actually reminded Tony of tie-dye. The pair sank down onto the sand and sat in silence until the last ray of sunlight dipped under the horizon and the last shred of colour faded from sight, replaced by brightly glittering stars.

"Well, goodnight," Avila said, turning to face Tony as they reached the front door, internally cursing herself for making the 'well' come out sounding like a 'welp'.

He gazed at her. Avila kept up the neutral smile and bright eyes. Carol always said she was good at hiding emotion.

"Goodnight..." he leaned in.

Avila kept smiling. She didn't step away. To be honest, she barely registered what was happening until he kissed her.

It was long, slow and sweet. His lips were surprisingly soft as he cupped her cheek with one hand, taking her hand in his other. After a moment, Avila pulled away, slightly breathless.

"Um, well..." she fidgeted. "See you, then." She hurriedly opened the door and stepped inside, closing it behind her.

Avila slid to the floor, eyes closed, her back pressed to the door. What just happened?

I really am bad at making long chapters aren't I. Sorry!
First kiss! Yayyy!
And isn't Tony a sweetheart with his perfect first date? So cuteeee!
