Summary: Bruce didn't like uniforms until he met Steve.
Notes I'm determined to finish all the drabbles. Hope I can do it!

Bruce never liked uniforms. It reminded him too much of Ross and the number of attempts the military made on his life. He could see them when they tried to capture him and lock him up for their experiments or as a weapon. He didn’t want to think about the medals decorating Ross’s uniform jacket as he sneered at him. Any uniform pushed the other guy very close to the edge. He heard about people being attractive to someone in uniform, but he couldn’t see it.

Until, he met Steve.

Bruce couldn’t take his eyes away the day Steve walked down in the kitchen in full uniform. He looked at the way the jacket stretched across his broad chest and fitted his shoulders. The way the pants formed to his sculpted behind all the way down to his legs. Bruce’s eyes followed him until he walked out the room.

Tony didn’t let him hear the end of it, but Bruce didn’t care. He found a reason to appreciate uniforms.
