Tony's POV

After having a good talk with Phil I make my way up to our floor to see what Pepper is doing, on the way I stop at my lab to check on an experiment, needless to say I get a little distracted and spend more that a few minutes in the lab before getting back on my way. When I reach our floor I find Pepper sitting at the kitchen table doing some paperwork, I sneak up and hug her from behind. She turns her head around to face ma and I give her a quick kiss.

"Did you get our guest settled in okay?" I ask as I walk to the fridge and grab some cheese.

"Yes, she's is in Peter's room for now until I get the other room ready. But I asked her about half an hour ago if she wanted lunch and she said no, you might want to go check on her."

"I'll just ask F.R.I.D.A.Y. how she's doing."

"Don't you think you should go up and make an appearance?" she insists.

"I made an appearance when she first got here." I argue. Pepper just gives me that look that tells me I should just do as she says. "Alright, alright, I'll go up." I surrender and jump back in he elevator riding it up to the guest floor. I knock on the door to Peter's room, there's no response. I open the door and go in, the girl is nowhere to be seen. Next I try the bathroom and closet, nope she's definitely not in here. Great, she's only been here an hour and she's already escaped.

"F.R.I.D.A.Y. where's the girl?"

"Miss Kennedy is currently on floor 90." As soon as she responds I am in the elevator pressing the button for the right floor. As I neer floor 90 I hear voices shouting, what's going on up there? When the doors open I can hear the voices better.

"That's not fair you cheated!"

"I did not, I'm just better at it than you."

"Come on Kennedy, best two out of three." I scan the room until I find the source of the voices, Peter and Kennedy at a foosball table. I stalk over to them.

"Peter, how long have you been here, why did you let her out?" Both teens are startled by my sudden entrance.

"What?" Peter asks in confusion, but I ignore him.

"And you," I point at Kennedy, "You've only been here an hour and you're already trying to escape?"

"What?" Peter asks again.

"First of all," The girl starts, "I didn't escape, Pepper said to stay in the room till someone came to get me, Peter came and got me. Second of all, you think that I would be given the chance to live with the Avenger, and then escape to go back to being a hobo? So as you can see, I didn't really break any rules."

"What's going on here?" Peter demands.

"She was sent here to be put under house arrest." I explain to the confuzzled boy.

"You said you were a guest." he addresses the redhead across from him.

"I am, I'm just sort of an unwanted guest." She defends.

"Okay, you had your fun now back to your room." I cut in, pointing toward the elevator, the girl reluctantly obeys, with Peter and I following right behind her.

"A little warning that you we're keeping a prisoner in my room would have been nice." Peter complains.

"Well if i'd have known you were coming I might have warned you." I counter. Kennedy and I continue wordlessly to the guest floor and Peter retreats to who knows where, to avoid a lecture. When Kennedy is back in the confinement of the room, I stand in the doorway staring at her.

"Alright kid, let me make this clear, that was strike one, so if you want your stay here to be enjoyable I suggest you not get any more, that means no more leaving the room without permission, and no hacking into. . . well anything, It you hack so much as a toaster you're through, just stay out of trouble. Okay?"

"Yes sir Mr. Stark, It won't happen again." She apologises. That was unexpected, I was expecting some kind of snappy remark, I decide to lighten the mood a little before I leave.

"Oh and Kid," She looks up at me with reverent eyes, "I told you to call me Tony." I say with a wink before leaving the room.

I watch Tony leave, and smile to know that he's not permanently mad at me. I really am sorry, but I don't know why Tony got so upset about it, I thought he was supposed to be the carefree, reckless one. Well all I know is that I'm stuck in this room again. But that's not so bad, there's probably tons of things to do in here. After debating with myself for a few minutes I turn on the small TV in the corner and flip through the channels until I land on a channel playing beauty and the beast.

In what seems like only a few minutes the movie is over and something else comes on, I turn off the TV and look over at the clock to see that it has actually been a few hours. Just as I am about to pick up my book again I hear a knock at the door.

"Come in." I say, looking to see who it is. THe door opens and in comes Peter holding some stuff in his arms.

"Hey, Pepper told me to bring you this stuff, there's some dinner and some pajamas." I walk over and take the stuff from him, throwing the pj's on the bed and taking a look at the food which turns out to be a hamburger and french fries.

"Thanks." I say quietly, unsure if he's mad at me.

"I already ate to I thought if you were bored I could sit with you while you eat if you want." He offers. Relieving some of my fear with that sentence.

"Sure, so you're mad at me for lying to you?" I ask as I sit down on the couch.

"Nah, it's okay. Besides, you didn't technically lie." He sits down next to me.

"I home I didn't get you in trouble with Tony."

"No, I ran away to the lab before he could lecture me. But I'm curious, why are you actually here?" He asks leaning back into the couch and preparing to hear the story.

"I got curious and hacked into S.H.I.E.L.D. they didn't like that very much." I explain, getting a snort out of Peter.

"Hacking into S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't seem like a very well thought through plan."

"I don't know, look where it landed me, I went from hobo to living with the Avengers, I'd say it was a pretty good plan." I protest. Starting to dig into the food on my lap.

"Oh I see, that was your goal all along, getting sent to Avengers Tower."

"Actually no, I just wanted to know more about S.H.I.E.L.D. the rest just sort of happened." Just then F.R.I.D.A.Y.'s voice sounds from the ceiling saying,

"Mr. Parker, Mr Stark left the following message 'Peter what did you do to my lab?! This is a mess! You'd better get down here and clean this up before I kick you out for good!"

"Oh no, I forgot I left that down there! Thanks F.R.I.D.A.Y. I gotta go Kennedy, see ya." Before I can respond he darts away out of the room.

"Bye I guess." He left the door open behind him but i'm not about to leave the room and get yelled at again, so I get up and close the door then go back to eating my dinner. After I eat I read a few more chapters of my book then go to bed and fall asleep instantly after such a busy day. 

😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Okay guys I kinda feel like this chapter was short and boring and the tittle sucked and the ending sucked and, I don't know, I don't like it, tell me what you think I did wrong.

(P.S. I forgot to mention, in this fic Pepper and Tony are married, so If I refer to her as miss Pots, its just because she prefers it I guess.)
