You wanna risk one of them trying to come after us later and wishing they hadn't? Alright.
[ It's only fair, after the time spent where people thought they should get their shit together and finally get together. There had been a little meddling here and there - not just from Sam, who'd gotten them those tickets to that musical, but others - but there's always been a layer of shit-giving amongst the people who were first Steph's friends and later become Bucky's, despite all his attempts at declaring them acquaintances or reluctant co-workers. It means they'll be looking for an opportunity to tease the couple and they might wish they hadn't intruded when they do. ]
Obviously we don't have to do it in the Tower. We can get home in 10 by bike, less if we don't give a fuck about speed limits. They'll know what it means if we're gone long enough.
[ She actually doesn't mind, but he might, and that's important to her. ]
If you think we're making it back to the party after we do all that, you've got another thing coming. And when Wilson starts complaining about me taking you from your own party, I'll tell him to take it up with you.
[ The way he sees it, he's got all those years when they were kids, before the war and even after, before falling off that train and then the years since coming out of Hydra's brainwashing to make up for. They have all that time to make up for. It means that after looking out for everyone a majority of his life ( not including time spent brainwashed ) he'll allow himself these moments of being selfish and then deal with what comes of it later. ]
[ Look, she doesn't intend to go back either if they do leave early, but she doesn't want to put him off by being so obvious that she wants to be around him so much. ]
Yeah, I'll make sure to remind him who got us those tickets in the first place.
I've gotta make sure my best gal has a decent birthday. I'm making up for the ones I wasn't there for.
[ When she came out of the ice and he was a brainwashed assassin, when he was still on the run or when he was in Wakanda or when he was gone for five years - there's plenty of time where they were apart be it by chance or by choice or burden, now they're not and it means he really ought to make sure this birthday is all she wants it to be.
He's also saving her from Sam making her blow out 100+ candles. ]
[ Her mother had always cooked and baked a cake for her, and he was invited to her birthday dinners, but he always had something else to surprise her with. That had meant so much to her. ]
Tell him we need it to buy a stroller.
[ They're not pregnant, but now that they're married of course everyone's asking about kids. ]

He still owes us some of the money from that bet.
