Third Person POV

After Tony and Sophia catched up on everything they had been missing, he invited her to stay there with him for a couple of days and be together, making up for the lost time. Of course she agreed.

They had gone out to the beach, to the city, and they had bought things together for Sophia's new apartment in Downtown.

Yes, she now had an apartment in the city limits. Even though she only went there to visit Tony once in a while, the idea of an apartment seemed the best for them and more comfortable. Also it was 25 minutes away from Tony's house, which was convenient. Only thing is, Sophia didn't know she was getting an apartment, at least not until three nights before.

*FLASHBACK*

It was currently 21:45 and Sophia was at Tony's workshop working on a new project of his. He had the great idea of creating a robot-servant that could help him do stuff, so he asked Sophia for help, and being the genius she was with technology and engineering, she said yes.

-Hey, J, can you tell Tony that I've been holding this wrench for at least 15 minutes and I can't move it until he gets his ass down here? We need to tighten this nut so that the caliper does not fly off and kills someone.- Sophia said while trying to tighten the nut with the wrench as much as she could.

Tony said he was going to order some pizza for them to eat while working and some soda. That was 15 minutes ago. Sophia could not believe he was taking this long on just ordering a pizza and grabbing some sodas from the kitchen.

-Right away, miss Dumont.- The A.I answered Sophia.

-Oh, and J?.- Sophia spoke again before the AI left.

-Yes, miss?.- Jarvis answered.

-Can you please, please, call me just Sophia? Or Sophie? Miss Dumont is way too formal and we've known each other for really long.- Sophia said while looking at the ceiling. Even though Jarvis was not in the ceiling, she never knew where to look when speaking to the AI so she looked everywhere.

-Even though my matrix is programmed to speak this way, I guess I can try.- Jarvis responded to Sophia and she smirked.

-Thanks, J.- She said while going back to work.

-No problem, Miss Sophie.- Jarvis said.

Sophia just laughed and shook her head. Not exactly what she had in mind, but it was something.

After another 5 minutes, Tony finally made an appearance through the workshop door, with his jacket on one hand and Sophia's on the other. She turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow.

-You going somewhere?.- Sophia asked, while still holding the wrench between her hands.

-Nope. Not me. We are going somewhere.- Tony said, throwing the jacket towards Sophia, this landing in her head.

-I'm still holding the wrench, you know?.- Sophia asked her brother, her voice muffled because of the jacket on her face.

-Yeah, just put it around somewhere. C'mon, we need to get going.- He said while walking to where Sophia was, taking the wrench out of her hands and throwing it somewhere on the workshop floor.

She glared at him and huffed. Both of them exited his house and hopped on his car.

-You still haven't told me where we're going.- Sophia pointed out as she buckled her belt and Tony started the car.
