Summary: Steve finds comfort in Thor.





Every day Steve Rogers feels further removed from the world. It depresses him, somewhat, to be this far out of time, to be alive in the future when his loved ones have died.

Then, he befriends Thor and doesn’t feel so alone.

Thor is easy to admire, even easy to love. They find similarities in one another, they bemoan about women and all their idiosyncrasies, and they find comfort in making pledges and promises kept just between them.

Steve blinks through a haze - not through alcohol, not at all, but through joy. He’s can’t remember the last time he’s felt this happy, this accepted. Maybe when Bucky...

It’s dark when he opens his eyes, and Thor is hovering over him, smiling and settling his body onto of his. His face looks like laughing.

Steve asks, “Are you sure?” He feels like a small man again; when Thor puts his hands on him, he feels even smaller. But it isn’t bad. It reminds him of who he once was - still is, even under all the enhanced powers.

He hears Thor’s answer when he feels his hair ghost over his skin. Thor’s wet lips find his as his bristles tease across his mouth. Thor grinds into him, and Steve likes it, but he doesn’t tell him he likes that Thor feels bigger than him. If he does, Thor will stop, chide his foolishness and tell him in long lengths, almost like poetry, on why Steve is better than all of them, why Steve is their natural leader.

He hears it every time, and as beautiful as it is, Steve doesn’t want to talk tonight. He frames his hands around Thor’s face and takes him in.

With him, Thor does not wield his Hammer tonight, but Steve really can’t tell otherwise.

Oooh, I really like that piece of insight -- that next to Thor, Steve can feel small... not in a threatened way, but in a way that makes him remember who he was and still in some ways is. And of course Steve, being the kind of man he is, would welcome that reminder. Awesome stuff!

*wriggles* Size kink Steve Rogers style is something beautiful to behold.

This is fluff done right, though I wish for more! XD
I think you really picked up on something here. Steve has to feel a bit insecure when it comes to being liked. He had trouble finding anyone who would have him before the serum and now he is drop dead gorgeous and everyone wants a piece of that sexy sexy man. I think you deserve a high five for seeing that Steve might have this problem and another high five for realizing that Thor, who is larger and stronger than Steve, would see him for his honorable personality. A perfect match. Love your wave length here and hoping for more! Thanks for sharing your talent!
