Tony Stark | Never Again

You were working upstairs taking care of some paperwork while Tony was downstairs in his lab doing whatever it is that he does. You were looking through some things on your tablet when Tony called, and you picked up.

"Hey [Y/N] how big is your hand?" He asked as soon as you answered.

You looked at your hand puzzled wondering why would he need to know such a thing. "Uh I don't know....why?"

"Just tell me how big is it."

"Tony is this really necessary?" You asked, hoping that the billionaire wasn't up to his usual pervertive ways.

He sighed and said, "Look just come down here real quick."

The call ended and you got to your feet to head downstairs. When you arrived, you found Tony lying back in a chair with various wires attached to his body as well as a heart monitor by him. His shirt was off and his hair was styled as usual. You had to admit that he looked good without a shirt on. You raised a suspicious eyebrow as you neared him and Tony of course said his formal hello's and then went straight down to business.

"I need you to help me out," He stated. "Can you help me take out this reactor?"

"Wait isn't that thing that keeps you alive?" You asked confused as you pointed to the glowing reactor in his chest.

He shrugged his shoulders. "Well yes but now I'm getting an upgrade." He took his old reactor out carefully and placed it on the side while he grabbed the new one. You were very nervous to be doing this but agreed anyways. It was not everyday you got to take a man's arc reactor out of his chest. "Alright now just reach inside and gently reach the wire out....can you do that?"

You stared into the hole in his chest and then into his eyes worriedly. "I-Is it safe? Are you sure I can do this?"

"Yeah, yeah it's fine. You'll have this done in no time."

Your hands nervously went over his chest but then you hesitated. Sure you had thought that this would be fun in the beginning but now you were terrified. The last thing you needed was to be the reason why Tony Stark was dead. Your hand plopped down to your side and your shoulders slumped down in defeat.

"Look I don't think I can do this...."

"Nonsense," He shook his head at you. "It's like Operation. Don't let it touch the socket wall unless you want to shock me. Even then, don't do it. Now just reach inside and gently pull the string out." For someone who was letting an inexperienced person have his life in their hands, he was oddly calm about it. He didn't seem nervous at all. In fact, he was confident in you. You however were a nervous wreck.

"Um okay then," You nodded understanding. You reached inside the socket and when your fingertips felt a sticky substance, you winced in disgust. "Ew is this puss?"

"It's not puss it's a residue from the arc reactor. A plasma thing so it's not coming from my body," He corrected you and remained still while you reached inside.

The substance smelled horrible and covered your fingers. When you found the wire you started to pull it out. You felt like it was attached to something but just yanked it out anyways. At the end of the string was a circle copper/metallic looking thing. The heart rate monitor sped up and Tony's eyes were wide with shock.

"I probably should have mentioned that you do not pull that out," He gasped.

"Oh my gosh!" You gasped, starting to freak out. "What do I do, what do I do?"

"Don't put it back in!" He ordered you. You tossed the thing to the side and tried not to panic as you waited for Tony to tell you what to do next. "Great now I'm going into a cardiac arrest."

"Oh no!" You said, panic started to seep into your body. Tony saw how panicked you were becoming and just handed you the new arc reactor.

"Here, here, just put in gently but quickly," He said in a soothing tone.

You nodded and started to gently put the reactor in the socket. "Alright Tony it's going to be okay. Nothing bad is going to happen."

"I know. I have full-a-ah! AH!" He shouted when the reactor was placed into the socket, his body getting a jolt of energy.

"You okay?" You asked concerned.

He blinked several times and then looked at you funny. "Yeah I'm great. See, that wasn't so bad."

You couldn't help but laugh at that moment and use a nearby towel to clean up your hands. "Never ever make me do that again."

"No promises," He grinned.

He got off the table and started taking the wires off of him while you took the other old reactor in your hands. It was old but to you it looked brand new. Technology like this always amazed you. The reactor glowed a bright white color and it looked so pretty in your eyes. You felt the smooth and cold surface of it, a part of you wanting to keep the thing as a nightlight. Tony approached you and slung an arm around your shoulder.

"Can I keep it?" You asked with a sly grin.

"Yeah sure," He nodded. "Just don't give it to any terrorists or something."

"Gotcha," You smiled. You started to toss it in the air, catching it gracefully each time. Tony eyed the reactor, his heart stopping each time he thought you were about to drop it. "Is this thing like your heart?"

He moved his head from side-to-side thinking. "Well not exactly. It keeps me alive yes but-"

"So cool!" You gushed. "I have Tony Stark's heart! The fangirls are gonna be sooooo jealous!"

At this point you were lost in your own world, playing with the reactor in your hands. Little did you know that Tony had mumbled, "Yeah you really do have my heart."

"I have Tony Stark's heart! I have Tony Stark's heart~!" You sang and even started doing a little dance. Then an idea came into your head that made you start laughing. You ran out of the lab and started to head to the other one that was just down the hall. Tony stayed followed you after registering what had happened in the last five minutes. Once he did he saw you run into the lab and say, "Look Brucie! I have Tony's heart!"

" [Y/N] what are you-WHAT THE HELL?!" He yelled disturbed when you waved the thing in his face by the string, catching him off guard since he was looking at some inventions.

A loud clatter was heard in the room and Tony had to try his best not to laugh his head off when he saw Bruce fall off the lab chair.

"Why oh why do I work with you people?" He groaned as he tried to get up.
