The Sparrow

Chapter 17

A/N: WOOO I'm back! Sorry about not being on for so long! First I got grounded from my phone, then my NetBook broke and that sucked and I've had my phone back for a while but I completely forgot about updating! Sorry bout that, but now with out further ado, here's chapter 17 in Sparrow.



"What's your favorite color?" Tony asked me eating a scoop of ice cream. I thought for a moment.

"Blue, like the sky." I told him and he smiled. My turn.

"Cats or dogs?" I questioned and he laughed at me.

"Dogs obviously." He replied and I raised an eyebrow.

"Really? A dog person huh?" I semi-teased and he grinned.

"You know I was once told by a little girl I should make Iron Dog." he said and I burst out laughing.

"Oh kids." I commented and he nodded.

"Okay, if you could visit one place on this world, where would you go?" he asked and I had to put my spoon down to think.

"Um... I don't know really. London I guess. I would want to see Big Ben." I said, picturing the giant clock in my head. He nodded.

"Seems reasonable. I would want to go to Paris." he says and my head snaps over to look at him.

"Paris? Really? Isn't that like, every sappy teenage girl's dream?" I giggle at him and he placed a hand over his Arc-Reactor.

"No, for your information. Paris is a very rational place to choose." he defends and I giggle at him again.

"Mhm, I'm sure it is Tony." He puts his spoon down and stands.

"Oh you're getting it now Emma." I put my spoon down as well and try to scoot away from him.

"Now now Tony, think about this. Think of who you're dealing with." I tell him and he shakes his head lunging for me. I relax my body and he passes right through me. I laugh at his stoked face before standing.

"Catch me if you can pretty boy!" I call out to him and take off running down the hallway that led to the kitchen. I hear Tony's footsteps behind me as we race through the cafeteria. As a sudden decision I stop and let him pass through. He trips and I fall to the floor laughing. I try to calm down as I look over at his body sprawled out on the floor but only laugh harder. The look on his face is priceless! I slowly stand while taking deep breaths and walk over to him. I hold my hand out with a cheeky grin to help him back up. He grabs it and chuckles before pulling me down on him. I giggle again and we lock eyes. My face falls into a serious expression.

"You have the most beautiful eyes." he mutters and I feel a light blush brush across my cheeks. His eyes are a dark brown with a light hazel around the pupil, they're breath taking. Just as I'm about to return the compliment a voice interrupts.

"What the hell is going on in here?" I look up and Tony tilts his head back to see... Crap. Steve.
