tony's eyes widened as he finally decided. in front of him, stephen slowly raised a trembling hand, pulling all his fingers into a fist except his pointer.

one.

anxiety flushed through him, causing his stomach to do flips. but he pushed the fear down. he couldn't feel fear, not in this defining moment. he glanced back at you, watching you cry out in rage as you ripped apart another chitauri with your telekinetic powers.

they were nearly an exact match with wanda's, only your powers lacked the hue hers produced.

he swallowed thickly, hearing thanos grunt with power as the last stone fell into his gauntlet.

i love you.

your anger and rage quickly diminished as you heard tony's only thought. lowers your arms, you twisted around. you could only watch as tony jumped to his feet, grabbing the back of thanos' hand and pulling with all his strength.

the titan frowned, kneeing the billionaire in the stomach before attempting to punch him. tony dodged the blow, only to be back-handed away. his body went limp as it hit the battlefield, rolling a few yards away from thanos.

he grinned sinisterly as he lifted his right hand. glanced back down at tony, his smile only stretched further.

❝i am...inevitable.❞ the hollow clunk was heard clearly, but nothing seemed to happen.

thanos' smile died quickly before he gave a questioning look to the metal glove. turning it over, he furrowed his brows when he saw the stones gone. mouth agape, he swivelled his head towards tony.

your eyes widened further, realization striking you hard in the chest; winding you completely. ❝oh no.❞ the words passed your lips in a whisper.

tony sat on his knees, flashing his right arm as the stones secured themselves in tony's suit, like two puzzle pieces. as they joined together, a rainbow of colours rushed through his body, and he grunted in sheer pain. his head flung back as he felt the overbearing power pass through his body.

the titan took a step back, utterly shocked he was able to rob him of his power in one fell swoop. now it was his turn to feel the anxiety bubble in his chest.

tony heaved with exhaustion as his eyebrows cocked.

and i...❞ he panted. ❝am...❞ tears pricked his eyes as the white tendrils of power reached his neck, burning into his skin. his wrist craned forward.

iron man.

pressing his thumb and middle finger together, tony snapped sharply.

your vision was suddenly cast in white, hearing a booming clap of thunder. you winced against the light, switching from covering your ears to your eyes.

your ears rang as the blinding light finally ceased.

slowly lifting your worried gaze, you caught thanos take another step back in defeat. around you, various enemies started to disintegrate before you. he slowly walked forward, seating himself down.

after a quiet moment, thanos bowed his head and disappeared forever.

your chest caved in, in shock. blinking, you turned to tony. he had managed to drag himself to a flat slab of concrete that was stuck vertically in the group. he slumped against it, groaning.

tears suddenly blinded your line of sight as you pushed yourself up. ❝oh god—tony!❞ your shrill scream was heard by everyone.

his breathing was shallow, and you took in the sight of him. half of his body was charred, and his nano-suit was ruined. you collapsed on your knees, falling right beside him.

with a shaking hand, you stroked the un-touched half of his face. behind you, rhodey landed with a mechanical whirr.

you smiled sadly at him, ignoring the noise behind you as more and more avengers gathered.

❝tony, can you hear me?❞ your voice cracked with a sob and a few tears slipped down your cheeks. tony panted loudly, turning his head to you and giving a weak nod. you stroked his hair softly and tony relished in the feeling. your hand rested above his arc reactor and his own slipped over it, grasping it with the strength he had left.

❝y-you're gonna be alright. okay?❞ you whispered, nodding back to him quickly. when you raised your hands to heal him, tony's gave it a squeeze; a silent plead not to waste your energy on him.

you let out a choked sob, leaning in to kiss his cheekbone. your nose brushed against his skin, ❝it's okay, tony. it's okay.❞

you pulled back, closing your eyes and inhaling deeply.

the avengers were all there now, watching in silence as you pushed all of your power on him while tony sat still...too still for their liking. his brown eyes were hollow and his mouth hung slack.

a soft grunt of effort escaped you and you squeezed your eyes shut. it almost hurt how much force you were exerting, but you didn't care. you needed tony back. sweat broke out across your forehead and your hands started to shake rapidly.

behind your closed eyes, tony's skin started to form back together, and colour flushed his skin. the hair on his head started to grow back and the redness in his eyes disappeared.

peter gasped, covering his mouth in shock as tony returned back to normal before them.

when you felt all the energy and power leave your body, you slumped back. steve bent down, catching you before you could fall.

panting, you forced your eyes open. tony sat for a moment as if nothing had happened.

then, his chest moved with life. you gasped and a smile crept upon your lips.

❝t-tony?❞ you whispered to your lover, inching towards him as steve stepped back respectfully.

tony's head slowly turned to you and he smiled with warmth. ❝hi, baby.❞

you gasped again, this time louder. your sobs returned again, but they were because of joy. you threw yourself forward, wrapping your arms against his neck.

you felt him chuckle, wrapping his free arm around your waist.

you cried.

oh god, did you wail.

the avengers all smiled at the sight, all exchanging glances of relief.

❝if you...❞ your words could barely come out, interrupted by your weeping. ❝ever do that again,❞ leaning back, you smiled at him. you were a sight for sore eyes. ❝i'll kill you myself. got it?❞

tony laughed again softly, nodding slowly. ❝loud and clear, sweetheart.❞

you kissed him tenderly, grabbing the both sides of his healed face. when you broke it off, tony sighed happily when you nuzzled your face into his neck.

rubbing your back, he blinked up at the rest of the avengers. ❝what's up, guys?❞
