Bucky/Tony

Bucky and Steve made a pact when they were young, that if they were both still single when they were thirty, they’d marry each other. Bucky could think of a lot of worse things than being married to his best friend. They already live together, the tax benefits would be pretty awesome, and he could stop worrying about growing old alone. That is, until he met Tony Stark. Yes, that Tony Stark. Rich, gorgeous, smart, fun, great in bed, and... actually interested in Bucky?

Tony didn’t really do dating. It was too depressing to waste his time with borderline stalkers, fortune hunters, people just crossing off their bucket lists, and worse. He’d pretty much resigned himself to a lifetime of one-night stands. And then he met Bucky. Hot, nerdy, relaxed, and utterly nonchalant about the whole “Tony Stark” package in an extremely appealing way. There was just one problem: Bucky was engaged to someone else.

Tony and Steve have never gotten along, but when Tony lies to his mom about bringing his boyfriend to his cousin's wedding, he needs someone to play the part. Lucky for him, Steve agrees, and the two might just get a little more than they anticipated out of it.

Steve didn't like Tony Stark.

Stark probably didn't like Steve, either. They'd gotten off on the wrong foot, and that was putting it mildly.

And having to pretend to be a civilian Stark was dating, as cover for trying to save Stark's life while Iron Man was busy with a SHIELD mission, obviously wasn't going to help.

Tony and Steve pretend to date, and enjoy it far more than they should.

Clint/Tony
17,814 words

Look, Clint didn't mean to hit the guy, it just sort of happened. He was distracted, and the guy was distracted, and then things were a little bit out of his control. And even if it wasn't completely his fault, he still feels pretty bad about it. He had to go see the guy, didn't he? It was only polite, so yeah. He'd do that.

And look, he doesn't mean to start fake dating his accident victim either, but sometimes life is weird that way. You just gotta go with the flow when it happens, and learn to be the best fake boyfriend ever.

Omega!Tony is flirty, sweet, ridiculously pretty and running from his ex. 

Alpha!Bucky is beefy, fang-y, unfairly muscled and the perfect guy to scare away any unwanted suitors. 

Tony bats his eye lashes and asks the big bad Alpha to fake-date him to keep Ty away.

Bucky takes one look at the Omega’s smile and a quick peek at Tony’s badonkadonk and immediately says yes. 

Fake dates, kisses for the camera, strategically torn clothing and meeting the parents, oh my. 

Who could have predicted the growly biker Alpha would fall head over heels for a cashmere and glitter wearing bright eyed Omega? 

(Hint: Literally the entire world)

(Literally. The entire world.)

Tony and Steve don't get along, that's a known fact of the universe. However, when an alien invasion is pending and they have to convince them not to blow up the planet their only chance of survival is to allow the aliens to study Terran courting behavior.

Unexpectedly, Tony is alone for the holidays. He hates being alone, but surely his genius brain will come up with something.

Bucky can deal with the stress of having lost his arm, or the stress of remaining in the closet with his family, but not both. And only one of those things is in his control. But coming out to them when he doesn't even have a boyfriend is nervewracking, to say the least.

A chance meeting on the subway may solve both of their problems... and give them both a gift they weren't even looking for.

“Ah, tut tut, Thor All-Father; she no longer calls to you. She is open for the taking. We of power can feel it,” Proxima Midnight drawled, a smile tugging at her lips. This time when she hefted her trident she pointed it right at Thor, then proceeded to point it at each of them—Tony, Steve, Nat, James—and then back again to Thor. She held the trident steady, her muscles obviously strong and used to its weight in her hand. “Do any of you challenge me for her?” she demanded. 

-or-

The one where Mjolnir gets repaired, Thanos' minions come knocking, Tony gives a speech, and there's a road trip. That may or may not lead to kisses. Oh, and Tony just might be worthy of lifting Thor's old hammer after all...

“You'd better see for yourself,” FRIDAY said as she threw up several articles. When Tony dared to peek a look he groaned. Laughing back at him was his own face as he seemed to hug a smug looking Barnes, topped by the header “Secret affair revealed?” There were more pictures, of them walking together through the ballroom, the two of them close together and staring out into the garden. The headlines weren’t any better. “Lovebirds seeking some alone time?” “Two sides of the war: modern Romeo and Juliet?’ And Tony's favourite: “True reason for Avengers’ fall out: Iron Man stole Cap's love interest!”

When Tony saves James from being harassed during their welcome home gala, the press smells a scoop. Instead of being outraged, the general public reacts overwhelmingly positive to the news, so much so they decide to play along for the time being. But how do you tell the man you orphaned that you might actually like him? Why would James play along for any reason other than feeling in debt? And how are they supposed to mend bridges and be a team again when Steve is so angry all the time?

So, Captain America effectively manages to cockblock Tony for a year.

It's not Steve's fault. Well, actually, it is. But he was just proving a point - that if a superhero is gay, how can it be wrong? Steve just picked the wrong superhero to make the point with. Now America will think they're dating - and Tony's not going to be the guy to break Captain America's heart.

There's only one way out. To save face, Steve and Tony have to become fake boyfriends. Steve thinks the "boyfriends" bit will be the hardest to act... but maybe it's the "fake" part that will be the hardest act of all...
