A/N: short one + it's a bit off a mess but I like it

"I'm going to take an interval but maybe (Y/N) will come up and play something?" You looked to Mike the musician who was leaving his piano. "On you go then." Your boss said and you set down the glass you were carrying. He knew he wouldn't be able to stop you anyway and he wasn't going to not let his little girl play the piano. "We're quite busy so just one song." You said down the mic.

"There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief."

You started singing and playing the piano to All Along The Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix, it was one of your favourites to play.

Tony's ears pricked up as you began to play, suddenly intrigued by the waitress. He blocked everything out listening to you play and he enjoyed it, a lot.

You were playing along to some Frank Sinatra, singing as you did. The song came to an end and applaud came from behind you. You shot up grabbing the gun from under the seat and pointing it to the source of the noise. You did not expect to be holding the gun at Tony Stark. "I didn't mean to scare you." Tony held up his hands in defence. "Sorry." You told him putting down the gun. "How did you get in." You asked him sitting on the piano seat. You put the gun back underneath. He gave you a look that said 'I'm Iron Man'. "Of course." You laughed turning back to the piano. "You're very good at it." Tony told you coming over to you. "Thank you, I love playing." You told him. "I can see it when you play, I saw you earlier play Watchtower." Tony never really listened to the song but he would listen to you play it everyday if he could. "Do you play?" You asked him as he took a seat. "No." Tony told you but it was a lie. It was something he kept to himself.

You were cleaning down after a long day of work. You liked to stay behind once everyone else had left, it was peaceful and you could play the piano to your hearts content.

"I never get bored of listening to you." Tony admitted, he would come by often, just to listen to you. Nothing ever escalated although you wished it would, Tony couldn't be interested in you. "Thank you." You told him. "I've been learning something new." You told him as he came over. "Can you play me it?" Tony asked as he sat, he loved it when you played one had haven't heard you do. "Sure." You cleared your throat and lined up your fingers. "I'm a little rusty still." You admitted and began to play some Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling In Love.

"That was beautiful." Tony complimented you as you finished the song. "I'm still a little rusty." You admitted to him again so he would know it wasn't fully finished. "No, I think it was really good." He told you again making you smile. "I'd like to take you out." Tony piped up, finally asking what he's wanted to ask from the very first night he heard you sing. "Dinner maybe?" He asked when you didn't reply. "I'd like that." You admitted to him and his watch started beeping. "Way to kill a moment." He mumbled and shut it off. "Not tonight, a night when you're free, I can call you." Tony rushed as he stood up. "Sounds good." You didn't reach to give him your number. "You're Iron Man, I'm sure you can get my number, if not you know where I am." You grinned as he smirked. He leaned over and gave you a soft kiss. "Incase this is worse than I think." He said and a suit came flying into the lounge. "I'll call you."

"I know I said not tonight." Tony said down your phone and you laughed. "Tony it's 2 in the morning." You sighed lying on your back. "But I brought food." A knock came to your bedroom window and you got up to get it, Tony flying in his suit. "It's really good." You let out a laugh and let him in. "You're such an idiot." You said as he came out the suit. "Fighting makes me hungry." He shrugged. "Plus I didn't want to wait. I waited long enough to ask you." He admitted to you and you walked him to your open living area, a piano in the corner. "Well that's true, I was wondering when you'd make a move." You looked back at him as you grabbed some plates and cutlery. "There was no way someone could like my playing that much." You laughed it off. "No actually I do. I didn't want to ask incase you said no and I wouldn't be able to hear you play." Tony told you the mental debate he was having as you sat down. "Shut up." You brushed it off thinking it was too get in your good books. "No, I'm being serious, I do love it." Tony reassured you and you blushed as you but into your food. "Well thank you, and I wouldn't have said no." You confirmed with him. "I'm glad, but I still would like to take you for a proper meal though." Tony told you and you smiled. "Maybe a little earlier than 2 then next time?" You suggested. "Deal."
