MARVEL & DC IMAGINES

] salt 'n' pepper [

(A/N: This is set just after the first Avengers film, so we still have JARVIS as an android and everyone is happy. Also, Tony and Pepper aren't a thing, sorry Pepperony shippers.)

Summary: Tony can get so busy managing his company and being Iron Man that he sometimes forgets about his partner (Y/N). As she sees how close he becomes with Pepper Potts, she can't help the rising jealousy consume her, making her a very unhappy woman indeed.

Characters: Tony Stark x Reader, Pepper Potts x Reader (sort of enemies?), Bruce Banner x Reader (platonic)

Meanings: (Y/N)= Your name

(Y/L/N)= Your last name

Warnings:Bad words against Pepper, sad, fighting

"JARVIS, where is Tony?" I asked the android as I exited my shared bedroom with my partner.

He hadn't come back to bed that night and I had a feeling I knew where he was.

"Mr Stark is currently in his lab, Miss (Y/L/N)." he replied.

"Has he eaten anything?"

"Mr Stark has only consumed an alarming amount of coffee."

I sighed."Thanks JARVIS."

Of course he hadn't eaten. He never worried about himself, his brain was taken over with science. Stopping by the kitchen, I grabbed a glass of orange juice before making a bowl of cereal. My mind did think about making him some pancakes but he needed something relatively healthy. Carrying it down to the lab I knew what sort of mood he was going to be in. He would just want to get on with his work, not be bothered with anything or anyone else.

It was hard loving him though I wouldn't ever change it. We met at a party (surprise, surprise), I had tagged along with a friend, it was was for some sort of science convention; we bumped into each other and of course I knew who he was. We had talked the whole night, he too wasn't the most enthusiastic about the event. One thing led to another and then we ended up becoming a couple.

Unfortunately that did mean that paparazzi and journalists were following my every move. I was introduced to a whole new world, not only with the media but with his superhero side. I was an easy target for his enemies, he knew that and was so hesitant to announce us. However it accidentally slipped out after the battle of New York where he almost died; I couldn't help but dote on him afterwards, mistakingly showing off PDA, but what was done was done. He was fighting aliens and risked his life for the human race, there was no way I wasn't not going to show my affection.

When I arrived to the lab, the doors were locked which meant he didn't want to be disturbed. That didn't mean anything to me anymore.

"Tony?" I knocked on the glass door with my foot.

"Who is it?" he called out.

"(Y/N). Can you please let me in? I have food."

The doors slid open and I hopped in as if they would quickly trap me inside them. I found him standing at a desk which had tools laid about, he was tinkering with a circuit board.

"When you said food I thought you meant something interesting, not slop." he commented as he looked up at me.

I chuckled."It's not slop. This is better than nothing. Come on, put your stuff down and eat."

I took his arm, dragging him towards a table free of any technology, sitting him down and kissing his cheek. He whined like a child, only making me laugh more. Tony stared at it, not moving an inch.
