Tony gets nothing in reply besides a huff of breath. He smothers his smile, and tries again.
“Steve, I have to get up now.”
Steve makes a grumbly noise. He shifts a bit, and settles down even more firmly on top of Tony. Tony really can’t help the smile he feels take over his face, but it’s not going to help him get to work on time, so he tries to smother it again.
Steve has been in Cap wolf form for a full 24-hours now. Apparently, something about their fight with the Enchantress a few days ago triggered his latent lapine form … or something. Tony can’t say that he understood everything that Hank McCoy said during the checkup, but he does know that the wolf form will only last a few days. Until then… well, until then, he’s stuck with an overgrown puppy who wants to play and cuddle all day, every day. Right now, they’re in the cuddling portion of the day. At least, until Tony needs to get up and get dressed for work. Which is now.
“Steve, I’m serious.”
This induces a full-on whine from Steve, who finally lifts his head so he can hit Tony with the puppy-dog eyes. It’s very effective. Tony is already reluctant to get up; he’s warm and comfortable, and covered by a warm, soft body. It’s a very nice thing to wake up to. It’s even nicer when Tony gets to sink his hand into Steve’s thick, unbelievably soft neck-fur, moving up and down, until Steve closes his eyes and wags his tail and… okay, Tony is really going to be late now.
“I can’t stay in bed all day, I have a company to run,” Tony says. He also lifts his other hand so he can start caressing Steve’s face. Steve’s tail is now audibly hitting the bed, and yeah, Tony is not getting to work on time today, that just isn’t happening.
Tony sighs. “...I guess I can call Pepper, and come in late today.”
Steve wolf-grins, tongue lolling out.
Tony shakes his head. “The things I do for love…” he says, pulling out his phone so he can call Pepper.
