Sliver Sky

Part 13: To be fair

"Sky...Sky. Hello, Sky?" Tony questioned her as she stared at the wall blankly. "You are the worlds worst intern." Nothing. Tony walked in front of the girl and clapped in front of her face. Sky jumped up and looked at Tony confused. After moment she relaxed in her chair and gave him and apologetic look.

"Sorry." Her voice was quiet.

"What's up? You're even quieter than usual and apparently think that wall is pretty interesting." Sky shrugged which did not satisfy Tony. "Come on, you can tell me."

"I've had a rough life right?" She asked him.

"Yeah I'd say so." He agreed, both amused and very confused on the situation.

"And most of the people in my life were pretty crappy."

"Ok?"

"But I never really hated them. I mean I don't even know if I hate my mom, like she's still my mom." Tony nodded, his face showing how confused he was.

"Where's this going kid?"

"In all my tears of never hating people, I think I hate someone." She told him. Tony smirked and shook his head at Sky's foolishness. "It's not funny."

"Sorry, sorry. Who do you hate?"

"I can't tell you. You might kill him." Tony put his hands up in surrender and smiled.

"I promise I will not kill the man whom you hate." Sky laughed slightly and sighed.

"I hate Pietro."

"Don't we all." Tony mumbled in agreement. "What'd he do? Did he touch you? Did he hurt you?"

"No, it's just he's so mean to me. He threatened Brady to make sure he never went on that date with me. He got mad at me because I was ready to go on a date because about a month ago I wasn't ready to date him." It was obvious when the realization struck.

"He's in love with you. Got it."

"No, he's not in love with me. He doesn't know what love is. He's a jerk and he's toxic and I wish I never met him." Sky complained and let her head fall into her hands. Tony smirked slightly, but stopped when Sky began to glare at him.

"Right, not funny." Tony smiled at Sky before turning back to the screen. "Alright back to work, what do you think?" Sky looked at the screen, tilting her head slightly.

"It stinks." She told him. Tony looked at Sky and shook his head.

"Well you spare no time for feelings."

"Sorry, but no. It's terrible. I thought you were good at this?"

"I am!" Sky forced herself to hold back her laugh which made Tony roll his eyes. "You...you are mean."

"Alright, maybe rotate this and definitely a different color for this because, appearance is everything." Tony smirked as Sky took control of his work. "And this is a big no."

"Wait no, I like that part."

"No...no you don't."

"I'm starting to see how we're related." Sky smiled at Tony before getting up.

"Ok, you're welcome. I totally just saved your next suit and your reputation as a genius." She told him. "I've got to go."

"I finally get what people mean about my big ego...anyway see you later kid."

"Bye, and thanks for tolerating me and my stupid talking."

"Anytime." Sky left the lab and smiled all the way up to her room. Until she saw Pietro. Sky quickly opened her door, but Pietro was already in front of her.
