Avengers, Assemble

The Call

Around 2 PM I came home. I walked out of the car towards the front door. Before I could open it Tony ran through it. "Hoo, what's wrong?" I said while I stepped to the back. "where were you?" Tony yelled. I looked confused. "my job application?" he stepped back and looked at me. "job application?" I sighed. "yes job application, did you forget?" I saw that he was thinking. I walked inside along Tony. "Wait, Luna!" he yelled, but I ignored it and went into the living room. How could he forget this? I sat on the couch next to Pepper. "How was it?" I looked at her with a smile. She didn't forget happily. "good, I think. The conversation went very well.'' She looked at me with a smile. "I'm proud of you" I stood up."I'm going to my room" she nodded, and I left the room. I walked up the stairs and took the second door to my left. My room. I walked in. Haley was laying on my bed. "Hey troublemaker," I said while I sat next to him. I patted his head. Suddenly my phone rang. I looked up. Anonymous caller? I thought about it for a minute. "shit" suddenly I remembered. I answered the phone. "hey is this Luna?" a familiar voice said. "Yes, hey Jackson'' It was quiet for a few seconds."Hey, I wondered if we could meet tonight. To eat something?" I smiled at my phone. "Yes, I would like that,'' I said with a big grin."Good, should I pick you up at 8?"I looked at my watch. It was 4 PM right now so I had enough time to prepare. "Sounds good" I heard him laugh."Great, I'll see you later Luna." "See you" I hung up the phone. Pepper appeared from behind the door. "You got a date?" I looked at her. "Have you heard it?" she smiled and nodded. "maybe"

I looked at the ground. I heard Pepper sitting next to me. "Is he cute?" I looked at her in disbelief. "MOM!" she laughed. "he actually is" we both started laughing."what's so funny?" I heard behind the door. I looked up. Tony was standing there. "your daughter met someone and has a date tonight" I looked ashamed."Where? How old is he? Does he have a job?"he said while looking confused and a bit angry. "I don't know he will pick me up, he is 24 just like me and he did the same job application as me today," he frowned. "hm, I want to see him first" I looked at him."no way" I stood up and walked out. "you don't have to ruin this too" I locked myself in the bathroom and sat down. Tony knocked on the door. "Luna, let me in" I hesitated but opened the door. He sat down on the same place as me. I joined him and sat next to him. "I just don't want to lose you, and I'm sorry I've been busy with something lately" I looked at him."it's okay, what are you busy with?"he looked down."I can't tell you, I don't want to bring you in danger" he looked at me while he stood up again. "that's okay" I never had problems with him having secrets. I knew he couldn't tell everything what happened. I stood up as well. I'm going to make myself ready. He nodded. While he walked out, he screamed: "I still first want to see him," I laughed and closed the door.

I heard Tony leaving. I walked towards my closet. I looked in it. I grabbed a few dresses to try on. I grabbed a red, light blue and black one. I stood before the mirror and tried the light blue one. It was a little too long for a date if you asked me. I grabbed the black one. I looked into the mirror again. The cut in the front was a little too deep. I grabbed the final red dress. I closed my eyes, afraid the last dress wouldn't fit as well. I opened my eyes slowly. The red dress fell just over my knees. It had a v-cut and spaghetti straps. It was perfect. I turned in a circle, so I could see the whole dress. I smiled. "perfect," I said again. I walked back to the bathroom and grabbed my hair straighter. I straightened my hair while I listened to some music. I was so excited! After a while I was finally done. I tied up half of my hair in a bun. After that I grabbed my makeup bag and put on some makeup. Not too much, I didn't want to look like a clown. I looked in the mirror. I looked kinda nice I guess. I smiled to myself and turned off the light. I walked to my shoe closet. I looked inside. I saw my new black boots standing. I bought them 3 days ago. I grabbed them out of the closet and put them on. They fitted amazingly with the red dress. I looked at my phone, 7 PM. I still needed to wait an hour. I sat down in the living room and turned on the TV. Suddenly my phone rang. I looked at it, dad <3. I picked it up. "Hey sweetheart, tell mom I won't be home for a few days. It's for work." Just before I could answer he hung up again. I sighed and texted Pepper.

After a while of waiting, I heard the bell ring. I quickly fixed my hair and opened the door. Jackson was standing there with some flowers. A big smile appeared on my face. "you look beautiful," he said while he handed me the flowers. "You don't look bad yourself," I said with a smile. I took the flowers and laid them on the stairs. "They are beautiful," he smiled at me. "should we go?" I nodded and grabbed his hand. "Let's go."
