We landed in Monaco the day before the grand prix, and Tony kept his word and took my shopping, because I literally didn't bring anything other than jeans and t-Shirts. After our shopping trip we went and check into our hotel.
"Hey, do you want you go down to the restaurant for dinner or order up?" I asked Tony as walked into the living room area. He was standing at the window but he didn't respond
"Tony?" I walked over and touched his arm and he snapped out of it
"Did you say something?" He asked finally looking at me
"Are you ok?" I asked looking up at him he looked a little pale
"Yeah." He said and I reached up to check his temperature he wasn't warm like the other night
"I'm fine." He said hugging me I laid my head against his chest, hoping that whatever it was he was hiding was serious.
"Let's just order up for dinner, I want to spend sometime with you." He said and I nodded in agreement

Happy pulled up to the hotel that was hosing the grand prix, and I felt myself get a little nervous. This was my first public appearance since being named C.E.O.
"Don't sweat it, you're going to be perfect." Tony said taking my hand I smiled as Happy opened the door Tony stepped out first and gave a wave then he gave me his hand and helped me out. I smiled and waved to the crowd and we posed for a couple of pictures before going inside. Once we inside Tony stopped me right before we entered the ballroom.
"Whatever happens in the next twenty minutes, just go with it ok?" He said in my ear
"What are you talking about?" I asked as he placed a hand on my waist and guided me in. I literally saw red when Natalie Rushman walked up to us.
"How was your flight Mr. Stark?" She asked with a smile.
"It was excellent." He said then looked at me I gave him a tense smile I cannot believe he did this. Thankfully one of the waiters walked over with a trey a drinks and I quickly grabbed one but just as I was about to take a drink Natalie took it out of my hand.
"We have one photographer from the ACM, that has been dying to get a picture of the two of you." She said.
"Sounds good." Tony said then put his hand on my waist it took everything in me not to slap him
"Relax honey, smile."
"I can't believe you did this." I said through my teeth as the photographer took our picture.
"You kind of made me do it." He said let out a fake laugh
"Oh, I'll make sure to use that one when I kick you in your balls later."
"I have your table ready this way." Natalie said and I rolled my eyes as Tony let me go and followed her like a puppy and I bit my lip and followed
"Oh Gianna." I looked up to see Elon Musk
"Elon how are you?" I said shaking his hands
"I heard you're the women to talk to now, congratulations."
"Thank you so much."
"I have been trying to get in contact with that one, about an idea for and electric jet." He said pointing at Tony
"I'll bet you have the only thing that's been on his mind is the expo, and we're looking forward to your presentation on those merlin engines next week."
"Well, the expo is a wonder,"
"I told her it was worth it." Tony said walking over shaking his hand, and wrapped his arm around my waist
"Well send me those jet plans and we'll see what we can come up with together." I said ignoring Tony
"Sounds good." He said and I pushed Tony off me and walked towards the bar
"You're tense, do you want a massage?" Tony asked following me
"I'll get Natalie to make an appointment."
"I don't want Natalie to do anything for me." I said shaking my head
"I didn't mean to spring this on you."
"But you did I don't why I'm even surprised by you doing things like this anymore." I said as we reached the bar and I ordered a vodka cranberry
"Will a couples massage make it better?"
"I don't want a massage!" I snapped before he could respond
"Anthony is that you?" Justin Hammer appeared from behind him, to be honest it made me feel knowing how much Hammer got on his nerves
"If it isn't my least favorite person on earth." He said as he turned to face him
"You know you're not the only rich guy here with a fancy car.' He said patting Tony on the back, I laughed a little to myself
"Hello Gianna."
"Hi Justin."
"Do you guys know Christine Everhart from 'Vanity Fair'?" He asked and my smile fell, as he motioned her over Tony looked at me. I shook my head and downed my drink once it was placed in front of me, then ordered another.
"BTW the big story, the new C.E.O. of Stark Industries. Congratulations." He said pointing at me
"I know and my editor will kill me if I don't get a quote for our 'Powerful Women' issue." She said smiling at me
"'Powerful Women' A long way from getting dry cleaning, isn't it?" I said giving her a fake smile and she looked down
"Um yes it is."
"Oh, do you guys know each other?" Justin asked
"Vaguely." I said taking a sip out of my new drink
"She's actually doing a big spread on me for 'Vanity Fair'"
"Oh Well she did quite the spread for- I mean on Tony last year." I said looking at Tony, who was looking anywhere but at me
"She wrote a story as well.' Tony added and I rolled my eyes
"I'm just going to go somewhere... far away from here." I said grabbing my drink leaving the goof troop behind.
