Natasha or Natalie opens the door to Pepper's office. "Ms. Potts?" Natalie says. "We're not interrupting are we, Pepper?" Y/N asks and Tony turns around. "No, Hi, come on in." Pepper says and the two enter. "Wheels up in 25 minutes." Natalie says. "Thank you."

"Anything else, boss?" Happy asks stepping inside. "I'm good, Hap." "No, I'll be just... another minute." Tony and Pepper say at the same time. "I lost both the kids in the divorce." Tony says laughing. Tony looks back at Happy who shakes his head. "No."

"Are you blending in well, here, Natalie? Here at Stark Enterprises? And Y/N how are you doing? Those are your names, right?" Tony says causing Natalie and Y/N to look over at him. "I thought you two didn't get along." Tony refers to Pepper and Natalie. "No, that's not so." Pepper states.

"It's just me you don't care for. No? Nothing?" Tony says. "Actually, while you're here, maybe and you, Y/N and Natalie could discuss the matter of the personal belonging." Pepper says.

"Of course." "Absolutely."

Pepper walks out of her office and Happy follows while pulling her luggage. "I'm surprised you can keep your mouth shut." Natalie says. "Boy, you two are good. You two are mind-blowingly duplicitous. How do you do it? You just read things... You two are triple imposters. I've never seen anything like you two. Is there anything real about you? Do you even speak Latin?" Tony say to mostly Natalie.

Natalie says something in Latin before walking away. "Which means? Wait. What? What did you just say?" Tony asks. Natalie stops in front of the door "It means you can either drive yourself home or I can have you collected." Natalie says walking out of the office. "You're good!" Tony says to Natalie and Y/N starts to follow but Tony calls out to her.

"I can't believe you didn't tell me!" Tony says.

Y/N scoffs before turning around and facing Tony. "I could say the same damn thing about you. And it's, I don't....what do you call it, CLASSIFIED to tell you who I was and..." she says walking over to him and Tony cuts her off.

"But you lied to me." Tony says. "It's not lying, unlike what you did. You're sick, why didn't you even mention that to me?" Y/N frowns as she moves closer to the chair he was sitting in.

"I was waiting for the right time, and now..." he says looking down. "Now, what?" Y/N asks crouching down. Tony looks up and into Y/N's eyes. "Now, I'm not even sure if I trust you enough." he says and Y/N looks at him wide eyed before standing to her full height.

"Oh, ok. I see." She says turning around starting to leave again but stopping for a second time. "And hell, I was even considering telling you how I felt about you and maybe how I got that scar you asked about, but I guess I don't even trust you enough to tell you." Y/N says rephrasing Tony's words as she looked over her shoulder and scoffing before leaving.

...

After Y/N had that little discussion with Tony she rarely even spoke to him. Right now, she, Natalie and Happy get out of the car. Once out of the car Natalie opens the door for Pepper.

"I'll keep the car down here, all right?" Happy mentions. "Thank you, Happy." Pepper tells him as she, Natalie and Y/N walk towards the stairs. The PA system announces something on the system. "... Justin Hammer. His presentation will begin shortly in the main pavilion."

Inside the expo music plays and Justin walks onto the stage, actually trying to dance. (Tony Stark Dupe). "That's what I'm talking about. Thanks for coming." Justin says causing Pepper to look at Y/N and Natalie. Justin walks over to the podium "Ladies and gentlemen, for far too long, this country has had to place its brave men and women in harm's way, but then the Iron Man arrived, and we thought the days of losing lives were behind us. Sadly, that technology was kept out of reach. That's not fair. That's not right. And it's just too bad." Justin says.
