Iron Man/Tony Stark and OC
Kindle Singer is Tony Starks best friend. His intellectual equal and collaborative partner. She has been by Tony's side for years and she has always loved him, but loving Tony Starks is never easy or simple. What happens...
When your mind and body experience excruciating pain your mind will protect itself in various ways. One of them is to block out the negative sensations with positive memories.
Tony remembered the first time he had seen Kindle. His Sophomore year at MIT he had started as a TA for the Engineering and Physics departments and on the first day of classes she had all but danced into his life.
With brandy brown eyes and waist length black hair Kindle had a air of wide eyed innocence at 15 that made Tony immediately protective. It was a new emotion for him but one he embraced, especially after she questioned the professors math on day one.
They had been inseparable for two years till Tony graduated at 17 and when his parents had passed away very suddenly it had been Kindle that had put him back together.

Flash back
Tony's head was splitting from a epic hangover and when he groaned and rolled over he immediately knew it was Kindle curled up in the bed with him. She had taken care of him when he stumbled home to their apartment last night, like most nights since the car wreak that had taken his parents life. Having her in his arms was pretty much the only thing that kept the nightmares away.

He had moved back to Cambridge with her after the funeral and finished dual masters degrees in engineering and physics while she completed her undergrad degree. They were only a few weeks away from graduating and afterwards we're heading out to California to the Stark Manufacturing offices there to begin working for and learning about Tony's dad's company.
Tony buried his nose in her strawberry scented hair and tightened his arms till she let out a little grunt of protest and smacked his hands. He loosened up enough so she could roll over and snuggle her head into his chest, her hair was a tangled mess and she was always adorably rumpled in the morning because she tossed and turned all night.
"I do anything extra embarrassing last night I should know about?" He asks quietly.
"If you're asking if I deleted the footage of you and the sorority princess skinny dipping in the fountain, I did. You won't end up in the tabloids again." She mumbles.
