I Don't Care | Tony Stark ~ wrong number

Chapter 32

She was left alone again and not long after she got two calls at the same time. One from Harry and another one from her Manager. So she naturally picked up Harry's call.

"So I'm picking up the kid from school in an hour or so. Should I dress up in a Gucci suit or regular clothes?"

"The funny thing is, Gucci suits are pretty regular for you, but you can do whatever you want Haz. Do you know where the school is or do you need me to send you a location?"

"Send me, your location let's work on communication ~" he began to sing

"Cause I don't need the time and place to come through!" They sang that line together.

"Then I'll just wear an all black suit and pretend to be his personal chauffeur, but yes please, send me the location. Alright, bye luv."

"Bye bye darling." They hung up and she sent him the schools google maps location, then she called back her agent.

"I checked your revised schedule and it works. Did you see the email I just sent you?"

"Hello to you too. I haven't." Alana playfully rolled her eyes and opened her calendar notebook, expecting to write a new event down.

"Sorry, I'm a bit in a hurry. I'll just tell you. Chase's manager called, she has a proposition. He has a movie, you have a tour, it's perfect, don't you think."

"You mean Crawford? As in Chase Crawford my ex?"

"Yes, him. Who else?"

"How am I supposed to know Emily? And no, I'm not getting in a pr relationship with him. We ended things nicely, we don't have to make things awkward."

"Then don't make them awkward. I already replied to her saying you agreed. You're not in any current relationship, are you?"

"Emily how could you? I do not agree with this and I will be having a word with Chase about this. And you know I do not consent to anything being done behind my back. This is the second time you do this, the third time and you'll strike out I swear to god. So since I'm nice, I won't let you lose face and I'll be doing this, but as friends. I am not going to kiss him for photos or paparazzi. And for your information, no, I'm not in a relationship, I might have been, but you went a head and ruined my chances with him."

"Look, I'm sorry okay. But I know this will work out, trust me."

"Big words Em. I'll talk to you later." Alana hung up and groaned loudly. She did not want to do this.

She reluctantly got out of the studio and walked into the lab where Bruce was now working alongside Tony.

"Hey Brucie." She greeted the scientist and he warmly smiled at her before going back to his work. "Tony."

The tone at which she said his name had him look up in worry. Even Bruce momentarily stopped working.

She motioned back to the safety of the studio and started walking to it. He quickly got up and hurried after her.

"I'll be back Bruce. Hey, hey, is everything okay?" He reached for her hand before she stepped into the room, but she put them in her pockets and deeply sighed.

He sat on the couch and she sat on the spinning chair, bringing her knees up to her chest and hugging them.

"Did something happen? Did I do something wrong?"

"Nono you didn't, it's just, ugh, why does this feel like a break up?" She sighed again and looked at him. "I just got off the phone with my manager, and without my consent she set me up for a pr stunt with an old ex of mine."
