I went back to my room. I sighed and closed the door behind me. I walked to my desk and pulled out my computer and FaceTime Elena.
"Hey!" She said dancing. I laughed at her dance moves.
"Hey there El." I said softly.
"I guess he left." Elena knew that my dad was leaving.

"Yeah. But anyways, Marco said he'll come over!" We screamed.
"Oh my god! Maya will be so jealous!" Then in the background, I heard Elena's mom calling her. "Motherships calling me, we'll talk later! Bye Stark!" And she exits out.
"Ms. Stark, a Marco Ward is here to see you." JARVIS said. I was panicking! Do I look okay? Then seconds later Pepper came in.
"Crystal, a Marco is here to see you." She said and left. I got up and walked downstairs. I saw him sitting down in the living room.
"Hey Marco!" I reached downstairs.
"Hey Crystal!" We both laughed. "So what should we do?" He asked.
"I don't maybe watch a movie or something?" Movie? Really Crystal is that the best you can do? Movie?
"Sure I'll love to watch a movie." He smiled. Oh my his smile! God is this real? "And Crystal, I was wondering if we can um I don't know? I like you, Crystal."
"What is it?"
"Since we met in school, I like you. I've been wanting to say this, you're a beautiful girl, and I was wondering if will you be my girlfriend?" I smiled. It was a little too soon, but to make Maya jealous and he's good-looking, why not! What can happen!
"Marco, I like to be your girlfriend." His eyes widen.
"Really?! Wow! I thought that a girl like you will say no like a guy like me." He rubbed his neck. I smiled at him.
"Come on, let's go watch that movie."
back to Tony's phone call
My dad's called scared me. Gunshots and explosions I heard. I think that I had a panic attack.
"Crystal? It's okay." Elena looked worried.
"Pepper? Elena?" I asked. Pepper rushed towards me. Pepper's eyes were red. Red eyes? Wait is she high? No, wait, she's crying. "What's going on?" I asked.
"Crystal, your dad, had been in an explosion and he might be kidnapped, or-" Pepper stopped. I took a deep breath. Elena looked at you, her eyes was telling me that's it's all going to be alright. I looked into her's and I shook my head. It's not going to be okay.
