Falling In Love With The Billionaire's Son

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

Walking home was definitely one of the most boring activities in the life of Tony Stark.

Being the quick-thinking genius he was, Tony had already planned out several different scenarios of the rest of the afternoon, right after he left school. Bruce was coming over in thirty minutes, so Tony had time to waste.

Perhaps he'd call in some favors that people owed his father and get Phil kicked out of school. But his father never wasted a favor, and they were all used up.

"Mom, I'm bored." He announced as he walked into the study.

"Shh, honey, I'm on the phone." She whispered before going back to her conversation. "No, not you... Yes, of course we would like the turkey fresh, not frozen. Why would you even ask that?"

Tony glanced at the notepad in front of his mother and saw some plans for Thanksgiving dinner.

In the Stark household, Thanksgiving was the number two most important holiday, it was only beat out by Christmas. He tried to look at the invitation list, but Maria quickly snatched it away.

Tony just huffed and left the room. Boredom was boring. Thinking about boredom was even more boring.

He decided the only thing to do was the thing that he did whenever he was bored.

Prank call people.

He dialed some random number.

"Hey, welcome to Tori's Tasty Tacos. What would you like to order?" A feminine voice on the other end said.

"Do you have fuzzy tacos?"

"... Is this Tony Stark, again?"

Tony hung up and looked at the call history on the landline.

He had indeed called that taco place more than once. The dates he called were random, and he realized that he subconsciously kept dialing it whenever he prank called. What an epic fail.

He got up from the couch when he heard the doorbell ring. Bruce had arrived.

"Hey my best friend forever! What's new?" Tony greeted with a grin.

"Tony, why are you talking like a teenage girl?" Bruce asked as he walked through the pristine white doorway.

"'Cause I wanted to. Anyway, I thought you were going to be late because you were quickly visiting Pepper, why are you not late?" Tony asked.

"Pepper's hanging out with that Phil kid. She ushered me out early." Bruce responded.

"Of course she is." Tony rolled his eyes before deciding to forget about it and spend some quality time with his best (Not to mention, only.) science bro.

Natasha stopped her running, breathless. This wasn't supposed to be how your first kiss was. You were supposed to kiss and then marvel at how amazing the other person is. Not run off to console your heartbroken best friend and leave the kissing partner in the hospital. Or that's just not how she imagined it. Still.

Natasha had 'followed' Clint all the way to the city park, but lost him. She sat on a bench to catch her breath.

Oh no, Thor.

She had been chasing Clint for at least thirty minutes, and the study date she was supposed to be at had completely slipped her mind.

"Might as well go now. Better late then never." She decided and walked slowly out of the city park.
