"you know, it's actually, it's not that bad, even I don't think i'm Ironman" He says, walking over to Pepper.

"Your not Ironman" Pepper replies, trying to hold back a smile.

"I am so" He quickly says, a piece of paper in his mouth.

"your not" Pepper butts in, failing to hold back her smile.

"Alright suit yourself" He says, taking the piece of paper out of his mouth "You know, of I were Ironman, i'd have this girlfriend who knew my true identity, she'd be a wreck 'cause she'd always be worrying that I was gonna die yet so proud of the man I'd become. She'd be wildly conflicted, which would only make her more" He clears his throat "crazy about me" 

"I-is this your way of asking me on a date Anthony Stark?" Pepper asks, raising an eyebrow at him.

"I guess it is, Miss Potts" He replies, looking straight into her eyes, taking a step closer to her. They get lost in each others eyes for a good few minutes. Suddenly, Rhodey walks into the room, looking straight at Tony and Pepper. 

"Am I interrupting something?" Rhodey asks cautiously, slowing his steps. 

"Nope, perfect timing" Tony says, turning to face Rhodey "Continue this conversation later Miss Potts" He says, turning his head to look at her, giving her a wink. 

"Ok Mr Stark" Pepper responds, still trying to comprehend why THE Tony Stark just asked HER on a date. Tony walks out of the room while taking to Rhodey, leaving pepper alone.


Pepper's POV | 

She sat in the back of the car when her phone dings. She picks her phone up and reads the message, My house, 6pm, wear whatever TS. She sends a quick, see you then, back and puts her phone back down on the seat. Was she really going to go on a date with Tony Stark? 

Once she finally got back to her apartment she checked the time, 5pm, she had an hour. Tony's house was 20 minutes away which meant she really only had 40 minutes She decided to take a shower and then would pick on a dress to wear. After her shower, she had to make the hard decision on what dress to wear. She decided on the blue dress she wore back at that party, when she danced with Tony. 

Once she was finally ready, she grabbed her keys and headed out to her car. Finally 6 o'clock arrives and she pulls into Tonys driveway. She gets out, not bothering to lock her car since the security here was quite good, and walks up to Tony's door step. She knocks on the door and waits for him to answer.

Tony's POV | 

He hears someone knock on the door. "Who's at the door Jarvis?" He asks the A.I. 

"It appears to be Miss Potts sir" The A.I. responds "Some secret date I don't know about?" The A.I. asks.

"Oh shut up Jarvis, just let her in" Tony says, still messing around with something.

Pepper's POV | 

She hears the door click open so she pushes the door and walks inside. She was nervous. Why was she nervous? She'd been inside Tony's house hundreds of times, why was this time any different? Pushing away the voices in her mind, she focuses her mind on tonight.

"Hey Tony!" Pepper says cheerfully as she walks over to him.

"Hey Pepper! Glad you could make it!" Tony responds, putting whatever he was messing with down. Tony stands up and walks over to her, smiling. "So I was thinking a movie night? and maybe, depending on how tonight goes, you might even stay the night" Tony adds, winking at her.

"I'm not sleeping with you Stark" She jokes, giving him a smile. 

"Your saying that now, but you won't be able to resist me later" Tony says, smirking.
