29th May 2010. 21:00. Malibu, Los Angeles. CA.
Third Person POV.
Rhodey was walking inside the house with a look of bewilderment on his face. There were a lot of people at the party and he started to wonder if Tony actually knew all of these people or he just invited random strangers into his home.
Not that it was unusual.
He saw Pepper walking out of what must've been the main room and walked towards her.
-Hey Pepper.- Rhodey said as he got closer to the strawberry blonde.
-I'm... I'm going to get some fresh air.- Pepper said to the colonel and he furrowed his eyebrows.
-What's wrong?.- He asked and Pepper walked with him to the entrance of the main room.
The sound of glass shattering and a stumbling Tony in his Iron Man suit was the view Rhodey was greeted with as he saw what Pepper was referring to.
-I don't know what to do.- Pepper said as she shook her head, watching Tony almost fall from the stage he was drunkenly dancing in.
-You gotta be kidding me.- Rhodey said as he took in the sight that was in front of his eyes. He knew this was all because of what he found out a couple of days ago, but this was not a solution. Watching his best friend act like this only meant one thing.
He was giving up.
He was starting to accept the fact he was dying and he was giving up on finding a cure.
He thought that Sophia might've talked some sense into him. And if she did, then his best friend didn't listen. Like always.
Pepper and Rhodey shared a worried look and looked back at Tony. Without turning around, Rhodey spoke again. -That's it. I'm making...- Pepper grabbed Rhodey by the arm, asking him not to call anyone. -Pepper. This is ridiculous. I just stuck my neck out for this guy.- Rhodey said as he pointed his finger at Tony.
The veins on his neck popped out as anger started to take over him.
Pepper tried to calm the colonel down. -I know, I know. I get it. I'm gonna handle it, okay?. Just let me handle it.- Pepper said as she tried to ease Rhodey. He looked at her and she nodded.
-Have you called her?.- Rhodey said and Pepper knew instantly who was referring to.
-Yeah. She is on her way.- Pepper said as she kept her gaze fixated on Tony and all the mess he was doing.
Rhodey took a deep breath. He could not stand the sight of his best friend destroying everything, including himself. He waited for Pepper to handle Tony, but seeing it was a failed attempt with Tony being a stubborn mess, he sighed and left the room.
-------------------------------
When Sophia agreed to come to her brother's party, even though he was kinda dying, what she least expected was for him to be drunk and destroying everything. Drunk, she did expect, but not him, destroying his own mansion.
She had arrived with Michael just in time when she saw her brother breaking bottles in the air. She stood by the doorway, looking at Tony's mess with wide eyes.
-What the fuck.- She said, loud enough for her fiance to hear. She looked around the room at all the mess and she flinched a little when an explosion was heard and pieces of watermelon flew in the air.
Michael covered her with his arm and just as she lifted her gaze, she was met with the sight of a really happy Tony looking at her.
-Star! Hey Star!.- Tony said as he waved his hand in the air excitedly. Sophia just shook her head with a frown on her face. -Ladies and gentlemen, I might be the birthday boy, but the Star of the night has just arrived! My sister, Star Dumont!.- Tony screamed happily as the people turned around to look at the young woman.
