~Tick Tock, Time's Up~ Human! Tony The Clock X Reader

~Chapter Four~

"So, how are you?" Tony asked. The name felt strange coming off of your tongue since he was a CLOCK. You shrugged. You really weren't quite sure how you felt. You were talking to a man who had somehow been in your dream, and was also part CLOCK..?
He nodded. "Ah, I understand..I think." You chuckled at Tony's lack of understanding. "So...Tony, right? How long have you uh...been able to do that?"
"What?"
"The-the talking thing."
"Same as you, I suppose. I'm not much older than you, you know."
"You're older than me?"
"Indeed! Not by much, though. You're..twenty, correct?"
"Yup."
"I've been around for around 23 years or so. That makes me older than you." Tony smirked in arrogance. He was obviously happy to be older than you by a mere three years. You rolled your eyes and smacked his arm. He chuckled, sitting down on your bed. You took a deep breath and walked over, sitting beside him. He smiled at you. You took this time to get a good look at the man. His complexion was blue, like your clock, of course. His hair was dark and had blonde tips. You noticed a red mark that ran across his nose, looking not unlike the hands on a clock. He also had a bit of blonde stubble. This made you think that the longer his hair grew, the darker it became. Suddenly, you felt the need to touch his hair. It was quite the compelling urge. It was so compelling, in fact, that you did touch it. Tony was taken aback, scoffing and scooting away momentarily. Your face brightened as you realized how awkward your action was to him. You quickly apologized. "Heh...sorry." Tony smiled, scooting back over to you. This time, he was a bit closer. He looked at you warmly. "It's alright, dear. Next time, just ask." Your eyes stared into his, obviously asking if you could touch it. Tony smiled and nodded as he playfully rolled his eyes. You grinned and reached up towards his hair. Even though he was sitting down, Tony was still quite tall. You began to run your fingers through his hair, smiling. "It's so soft!" You said out of the blue (heh). He blushed, making his cheeks a darker shade of blue. He laid down on the bed, humming softly and closing his eyes. You continued playing with his gorgeous hair until Tony nodded off to sleep.

The next morning, you woke up in a blue man's lap. Your face immediately began burning as you quickly sat up. "T-Tony!" You blushed bright red. Tony woke up, groggily looking at you. "Mhmmm...yes, dear?" His eyes slowly opened and hurriedly widened. "OH SH-" "Shush." You whispered. "I don't think anything actually happened.. I can't remember anything happening, anyways."
"Me either. All I can remember is how nice it feels to have you playing with my hair."
You smiled, looking at Tony. He smiled back, patting your head lightly. "Well, I guess you should be getting up around this time." You nodded, looking to your wall for the time.
"It's about 9:00 on this fine Saturday." Tony said. You'd almost forgotten about the fact that he was a CLOCK. Sleepily yawning, you stretched and fell back onto Tony.
He stifled an 'OOF!' and fell backwards.  "Why are you..um...on me?" Tony asked. He was obviously confused. You smiled and looked at his blushing face. "You're comfortable." "I..am?" "Yep." To be honest, last night was the first night in a while where you didn't have a nightmare. You felt safer with Tony around...
Wait...
Your face burned red. "If y-you're the clock, have you seen me CHANGE?"
Tony's face seemed to burn with just the same intensity as yours. "WHAT?! No! I'm a classy man!" His blush only seemed to increase with every word.

You hummed softly while sitting on the bed with Tony. You scrolled though (Social Media) and found a funny video. It was basically a bunch of cats reacting to cucumbers. It was strange, but hey, you're hanging with a clock-man. Tony laughed as the cats glared at the vegetable menacingly. You grinned at the man's laughter. It was deep and manly, yet classy and gorgeous all at once. It kinda described Tony,too. Wait, what? Nonono. You couldn't be crushing on a clock.
But you could, and you were.
