Elizabeth's T.A.R.D.I.S
12:35am

"Up and at'em Stark, we got a world to save"

Elizabeth stepped into the TARDIS, leaving the doors open for Tony to follow her in, Tony stood mouth agape as he watched her walk into a small white box. He was frozen in place, his mind racing and his palms begin to sweat.

"Tony?" Elizabeth shouted with question. "You gonna come in or stand out there all day?"

"Right - right" he mumbled to himself "Yeah!" He shouted to her, willing his feet to move forwards.

His eyes widened dramatically, slowly walked across the cream floor towards the glass stairs, his gaze slowly moving over every inch of the detail in the control room. From the silver panelling on the ceiling, to the white walls in which were encased with dimly lit purple fairy lights, twinkling softly against the stark white. A gigantic glass wall stood proud to the left of him, next to a glass door, which lead to the Doctors TARDIS, he could see the light blue ocean and the white mist that sprayed from the waves, Elizabeth had moved them to the top of the Heli-Carrier for a nicer view.

Elizabeth was stood at the controls watching his every move, from his eyebrows furrowing to his eyes widening, to his fish gaping mouth. She walked over to stand in front of him, waiting for him to finish marvelling her TARDIS, once his eyes landed back on her, his expression didn't change he just kept staring at her in disbelief, she chuckled lightly.

"Hey Sweetie, could you make me a room please, that Tony Stark would like? Oh and a bathroom with it" She spoke to her TARDIS gently, the TARDIS hummed happily in response, Elizabeth smiled in delight grabbing Tony's hand, pulling him towards one of the many long winding halls that resided within the TARDIS. She stopped in front of a door that was red with gold embellishments, his name engraved on a silver plaque that hung steadily on the door. Opening the door swiftly, she walked in still hand in hand with an astonished Tony.

"I'm going to help you okay?" She asked him sweetly. He nodded sleepily, walking over to sit on the queen sized bed as Elizabeth walked into the en suite and turned the cold and hot taps on and waited for the bath to fill up, she placed a bath bomb in making sure the temperature was nice.

Walking back out Elizabeth gave Tony an unsure look. "How do you wanna do this? Cause clearly your not awake enough to wash your own hair" She spoke gently.

"You got bubbles?" He asked, hearing her hum in reply. "Then I'll just get in, and you can sit on the outside?" He finished.

Elizabeth nodded, gesturing for him to walk into the bathroom to get in the bath, and to shout her when he was ready.

Tony was amazed how kind and loving she was being to him - he knew already he quite possibly loved her, she was a constant running theme in his mind, she plagued his mind and he didn't mind that. There were definite times in his life where he had declined any help from anyone, that was just the man he was. Stubborn, preferred to be alone, but with it being Elizabeth, he just couldn't say no.

Lazily he slouched his way into the bath, checking over himself to make sure everything was covered, once he was sure, he called out for her. Walking into the room, she gathered her soap, shampoo and conditioner in her hands, laying them on the bathroom sink, then sitting on the side of the bath.

Elizabeth reached for the coconut smelling shampoo, squirted some on her smooth palm and began to trace her fingers through Tony's hair, once the shampoo had lathered she began to gently rub at his scalp, he leaned more into her touch, a moan of appreciation left his mouth and she smiled at him, willing water to slowly leave her hand, pushing it through Tony's hair. She repeated the process with the conditioner, leaving him to wash himself.

Slipping out of them room, Elizabeth walked over to the wardrobe to get Tony a pair of boxers the T.A.R.D.I.S had provided, only to find a few pairs of Iron man ones, finding them funny, Elizabeth walked back into the bathroom quickly, shoving them on the side, then making her way back out to sit and wait for him on the bed.

Once he was out of the bathroom, he immediately dove for the bed, snuggling under the covers and blankets.

Elizabeth was about to walk out of Tony's new room until his hand grabbed her wrist, she stopped and turned around to see Tony sitting back up in bed. She gave him a confused glance, but was met with pleading brown eyes. She got under the duvet with Tony as he placed his head on her chest and hugged her waist. Her right hand reached up to play with a few strands of Tony's hair and her left was holding his arm that wrapped tightly around her waist.

As time passed, Tony woke up, feeling better than he had in a long time, he glanced up to see Elizabeth still sleeping and so he stayed still and watched the amazing woman in front of him, she stirred lightly feeling eyes on her, her eyes fluttered open to see the piercing gaze of Tony. She kissed his nose, leaving a lingering feeling for him.

"Up and at'em Stark, we got a world to save" she said half jokingly. He smiled up at her and kissed her jawline lightly before getting up and stretching.

"There's a whole a ray of clothing you like in the wardrobe to your left" She said, as she walked out of the room towards her own to freshen up and change.

Once he refreshed himself and changed, he made his way to the control room where Elizabeth was already looking at something on her screen.

Walking up behind her, he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into a warm hug. Spinning around into his chest she hugged him back.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" He whispered hesitantly in her ear.

She nodded at him and brought him in for a light kiss.
