A/N: Here it is as promised.... and it's EXACTLY 12:00am XD
********** KRYS'S POV *********
After the conference, I went home. I sat there, thinking about life. Thinking about Reid. The "announcement" today got my mind going. Beside my teardrop-stained picture of us is my copy of today's paper. Of corse, Stark made the front page. I just can't get this feeling out of my head. Like those sad eyes connected with mine for a moment. And in that moment he saw someone who needed a shoulder to cry on, and i almost saw the same in him. What am i saying? The man is ridiculously rich, snobby, and most likely on drugs. Maybe Alchohol. Steroids? He could be crazy! Oh, where's reid's sensible side when i need it? I dive into more mint-chocolate chip ice-cream. He loved it. Soon, i cry myself to sleep. Some cuts are re-opened enough that they become scars.
+++++++++ TONY'S POV ++++++++++
"J.A.R.V.I.S, run a list of everyone at the conference. I want faces listed beside each name."
Soon, 203 faces came up, each with long profiles as T.V anchors, or reporters multiple times. After what seemed like years of scrolling, I saw it. A small profile with only one listing: Full time owner for Reid's Newspaper. I knew it was her.
"Jarvis, Basic background."
"Name: Krystiana Miller
Occupation: Full time Owner And Propriotor Of "REID's NEWSPAPER"
Birthdate: April 4, 1988
Marital Status: Engaged"
I stop J.A.R.V.I.S there. why am i even doing this? I down another glass of scotch. Why is this zo important to me? I can't answer these questions myself. I sigh and lean back in my chair. For hours i sat, tinkering with my cars, my suits, accomplishing close to nothing. I just couldn't get that face out of my head. Pepper allowed me extra scotch because she knew something was up. What was bothering her? someone who looked so free and independant, I don't know what it could be. She is engaged, young, beautiful, What is it? her past? I know how that can hurt but it seems like she has a fresh start ahead, not a fresh wound. Honestly, I'll never understand women.
