Tony sighed as he kicked the covers off his plush, billionaire-sized bed. The brunette rubed a hand over his face as he groaned, getting up and resigning himself to another sleepless night. He wants to go down to his workshop, but Jarvis locked him out after he refused to sleep. Tony liked working. It gave him something do with his hands, so he wouldn't focus on the nightmares that had been plaguing his nights since Afghanistan.
He padded softly into the communal kitchen. Communal. Tony still can't believe that his team is living here at the tower with him. His team.
Instead of trying to gather some metal scraps to dink around with, he sits at the breakfast bar, laying his head on his folded arms. He closes his eyes and tries to breathe deeply. He zones out, lingering in that place between sleep and wakefulness. That place where his nightmares couldn't touch him. He stays there until the faint click of the refrigerator opening and the soft light washes over him.
He blinks an eye open and sees Bucky looking at him quietly, retrieving milk from the fridge. The ex-assassin has an amused sparkle in their eyes as they pour some milk into a mug. Tony blinks his other chocolate-brown eye open to watch as Bucky sprinkled some cinnamon into the milk. Tony sat up, resting his face on his palm, elbows resting on the bar.
Bucky shuffled around in a cabinet for a few seconds before pulling out a small vial of vanilla extract. They poured about a tablespoon of the stuff in before grabbing a spoon and stirring it. They tapped the spoon gently against the side to dislodge any stubborn drops of milk. Bucky opened the microwave and set the mug inside. Spinning the dial to cook the milk for about a minute, they turned and looked at Tony.
Tony attempted to cuddle into the Italian leather barstool. Bucky let out a light huff and turned the microwave off before picking Tony up and carrying him to the large sofa.
Tony whined and glanced back at the warm milk, still steaming in the microwave. Bucky huffed again and wrapped Tony in a soft throw blanket. They went back to the kitchen and pulled the warm milk mixture out of the microwave. Walking back to Tony, they handed him the mug and sat next to Tony.
Tony sipped the milk and hummed in contentment. He turned, cuddled into Bucky and pulled the blanket over the both of them. Bucky tucked Tony's head under their chin and closed their eyes. Tony swallowed the rest of the sweet mixture before setting the mug on the glass coffee table.
He sighed before cuddling farther into the ex-assassin. They were both asleep within minutes.

Steve walked into the kitchen, hoping to find some breakfast before his morning run, when he hear soft snoring coming from the living room. He walked towards it and saw Bucky and Tony curled up together on the couch. He smiled and pulled his phone out, snapping a few photos of his family.
