No matter how much Steve wanted to promise that wouldn't happen, that he would stand beside Tony and protect what mattered most to him, Steve knew that he couldn't. He hadn't been able to keep that promise to Peggy or Bucky.

As he struggled to think of something to say, he was blindsided by what Tony offered. Home. Tony was willing to give him what the vision had told him was impossible. For a second he couldn't believe it, ready to deny or refuse. Then he realized who had made that offer. Tony made the impossible happen.

Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

"I want a home with you." As he spoke, gave Tony an amused look while the elder curled up to use him as a pillow. It'd happened often enough in the Tower when Tony passed out from lack of sleep that Steve knew how to shift into just the right position.

"Then sleep. You need it." So did he. Pulling his shield off the gauntlet, he set it close enough that he could grab it easily before relaxing beneath Tony. Idly, he began playing with the hair at the back of Tony's neck. "That's why I'm the perfect pillow."
