"I just... I really like you, okay? And I think our first time should be special."
"Oh my god, you're a virgin!"
"What? No!"
"Oh please, you totally are. Trust me, I know that embarrassed blush. I can't believe I didn't see it before! You're just so... badass most of the time. Jumping out of planes and night-vision goggles badass. I should've guessed when you wore that ridiculous vest when we were on our first date."
"Hey, you said you liked it!"
"Because my grandfather has the same one. No, no. It's good. Most girls like being courted like they're eighty-five."
"We've only been together a month!"
"Yes, and I've been waiting the whole time. Don't you want to be rid of it?"
"Just the sex thing. Not our relationship, I promise. I won't leave you the broken shell of a woman on your bathroom floor."
"Thank you, Natalie Imbruglia."
"If you're gonna be grumpy about this I'm just gonna go."
"Wait. Don't."
"Changed your mind?"
"Just... another week? Let me prepare for this."
"A week. Your girlfriend shows up nudie in your bed and you tell her you need a week to prepare. Fine. You are the most ridiculous man I've ever met. How on earth did you not lose it already? No, don't answer that. It was rhetorical. There better not be trapeze acts involved in your deflowering, Robin."
"At least put the sheet back on."
"I seriously want chocolate for this. A lot of chocolate."
"You mean, like. In here? When we...?"
"Right. I'll be in the kitchen with my Phish Food if you need me."

When she gets to the kitchen Tony is already there, clutching a carton of Hubby Hubby. She's rummaging through the freezer when she hears Steve enter the room.
"Oh! Tony! You're here. I was, um. Hungry."
Curious, she turns around in time to watch Steve's face turn bright red when Tony gives his spoon an obscene lick.
"Shower!" Steve practically shouts. "I'm going to. And then, um. Maybe dinner, I think. Hi, Darcy."
He gives Darcy a pained smile before he takes in the fact that she's wrapped in a sheet. She watches Steve's eyes go wide before he backs through the doorway.
"Right. Um. Bye."
When she joins Tony at the table he holds his spoon out to her and grins ruefully when she clinks hers against it.
