Disclaimer: I wrote this story when I was like 13 and I've left it here for the nostalgia. Please proceed at your own risk. 😊

Thank you for clinking on my story! This is the start of my first series. This story going to be short, kinda like a preface. Mostly cause I hate writing oneshots. Enjoy!

Pepper felt enochlophobic, even though the only other person in the car was Rhodey. She rolled down the window of the car, letting the fresh air in.

"Are you okay?" Rhodey glanced at Pepper momentarily, before shifting his eyes back onto the road.

Pepper let out a sigh. "Yeah thanks for your concern, Cern. Rhodes."

"Pepper, this isn't a business meeting. Just call me James."

"Thanks...James." Pepper smiled.

Rhodey's stomach growled. "We should probably grab lunch. I didn't haven't eaten, and someone told me that you lost yours after seeing Tony's fall."

"No, I think I'll be fine."

Rhodey glanced at Pepper again. "Okay. Just, please, don't faint or pass out. You know how sensitive Tony is about you. He once he yelled at me for saying that sometimes he's too sensitive about you. Didn't talk to me for a week either."

Pepper laughed at the thought of Tony shunning Rhodey.
Just then, Rhodey's phone started to vibrate. He picked up the phone to hear Tony's voice blasting through the speakers.

"Rhodey! Rhodey! Where are you?" Tony yelled.

"I'm right here, man. What's the matter? You sound like sound like you washed down a bottle of Tylenol with a can of beer."

"I wish. Those guys wouldn't let me take a sip of white wine, even if it was made by the Virgin Mary."

"Nah, man, I'm being serious. I saw the footage. You put yourself way out there and you barely even made it back. It looked like you twisted your ankle on the way back down too."

"Well, I'm still walking, and I'm still talking. But Banner still put me on medical leave."

"It's for the best, Tony. Anyway, Pepper and I are on our to the Stark Tower right now and we'll be there in 10. See ya then." Rhodey hung up while Tony tried to protest. Lord, have mercy on his soul, Rhodey thought hopefuly.

I hope this first chapter wasn't to slow or short. I'll speed up a bit in the next chapters, so read on! Anyway, in the next chapter there'll be a little Clintasha jealousy going on, for all you Clintasha lovers!
