Here's The Valentine's Day Thingy for ya

Tony and Pepper were sitting on the couch, talking. When suddenly Tony starts apologizing to Pepper.

"I'm sorry, Pep." Tony leans his head against Pepper's shoulder and apologizes.

"For what, Tony?" Pepper wraps her arms around him.

"All those years that you were my PA I never let you have any plans that didn't involve me."

"Aww, Tony, baby. Don't apologize to me to me for this, please. I understand why you did that." Tony cuddles his face into Pepper's shoulder. "Tony, what is this really about?" Pepper doesn't even try to catch his eye because it's buried into her shoulder so instead she leans her head on his. "Tony?" Pepper starts to feel moisture on her neck. So he's crying? None of this adds up in Pepper's mind.

"I-I'm sorry. I-I shouldn't have even b-brought this up." Tony hiccups.

"Baby? What brought this on?"

"Y-your the b-best thing i-in my life... I-I didn't..."

"You didn't what, Tonnes?" Pepper's voice has taken on a gentle, loving tone.

"W-want you t-to find someone b-better than me. And e-eventually leave me." Pepper's features soften.

"Baby, it's ok. I would never be able to find someone better than you. You are the best."

"I d-doubt it."

"Well, Tony, what can I do to prove to you that I do in fact think you are the best I could ever find? I am so so happy with you. I want to love you."

"Y-you are the first girl t-to not only want me f-for my money...you're the first one to not b-be a g-gold digger."

"Aww...Tony, I love you, I love you so much."

"L-love you."

"I love you, I want you to trust me deeper than you already do. Let it all out. Your safe, I'm not gonna take advantage of you. I'm not like any of the others. I want to take care of you." Tony lets loose and cries heavily on Pepper's shoulder. Pepper rubs her boyfriend's back, trying to display some sort of gentle, loving comfort. "I'm here and I'm never leaving, not on my own free will." 'Thank god we live together,' Pepper thinks to herself, 'if we didn't it would not be fun trying to explain to him that I have to leave to get my stuff .'

"P-Pep?" Tony weakly mumbles.

"Yeah, baby?"

"I-I'm sorry."

"For what? You have nothing to apologise to me for."

"Y-you probably don't want m-me crying o-on your shoulder on Valentine's day."

"Aw, honey, it's ok. More than ok actually." Pepper raises one of her hands to Tony's hair and starts gently playing with it. "I love playing with your hair, it's so soft. And your adorable, you're the best boyfriend ever." Pepper kisses the side of his head. Tony hiccups and tries to snake his arms around her. She notices him trying to wrap his arms around her she leans forward so that he can.

Pepper moves so that they can lay down. Tony stays in his position just he's laying down down. He's still crying. Pepper cuddles him, hoping that it will show him how much she loves him. She doesn't really care that they didn't get to do anything special for Valentine's day, all she cares is that they're together and they're cuddling.

It's not really rare for them to cuddle anymore. When they had first started dating cuddling was rare, but when they started cuddling they realized that it worked as a destresser that worked for both. Now they are both more than willing to cuddle whenever.
