I'm so sorry that my updates are...chodey right now. I was at six flags all day yesterday and today is my first day of school. I don't have much free time. But I'am posting this at 6:30 in the morning so...atleast I'm thinking about you guys! :)

"How are you feeling Sweety?"Pepper asked. Looking at Tony lovingly. I pang in my chest continued.

"I'm...sore. I'm stuck here for a month, and then I'll have to have physical therapy for a few weeks then I'll be ok..." I looked down. I was tired, my body was sore, and now my heart was broken. Yet the only thing I could think about was that kiss, that magical kiss that made the sparks fly.

"Are you tired?" Tony asked. while sitting down at the edge of the bed.

"Yeah, but I've slept to much. You know being asleep for a week and everything."

"Listen Michaela, I want to thank you for everything you did for me back there. I want to thank you for everything really. You saved my life, without you I would probably be dead. I'm so sorry that it had to come to that...I should have been smarter then that."

"No, Tony don't apoligize. I did my job, I'm an Agent and part of The Avengers. My job is to protect my team mates. And you are a team mate. I would have done the same thing for all the rest." I said, completly emotionless. He made it clear that he wanted only to be friends, but I don't know if I could handle being only friends.

TONYS POINT OF VIEW

I woke up in a hospital room, with wires connected and Steve sitting down next to me with his head in his hands.

"Hey Cap'n whats up?" I croaked, feeling fully refreshed. He jumped but looked happy...sort of.

"Hey Tony...I knew you'd wake up soon, they had me stay here while everyone went to go check on Michaela. They just gave her a skin graft and, but don't worry everyone's worried about you too." He added quickly. My heart sped up. Michaela! She had to be ok.

"No it's fine, If I were them it wouldn't matter about me right now anyway. How is she? Please tell me that she's going to be ok?" I asked. I was so worried...and that kiss. I wanted to kiss her lips again. I wanted to hold her, I wanted to do so much more to her.

"Bruce said that she'll be ok, but she's pretty banged up from saving us.  Tony I can't believe she did that. She must really love all of us to do that. She could have died."

"I know..." I whispered and looked down. The door opened and everyone came shuffling in looked relieved.

"Good you're awake!" Natasha said.

I smirked, "Missed me?"

She rolled her eyes, "You've grown on my Stark."

"How ya feeling?" Bruce asked.

"Good, refreshed, alot better then before. When can I get out of this retched bed?" I asked.

"Sorry Tony but not for a week. You're body was pretty banged up."

I huffed, "How is she?"

"She's...stable. We managed to get her stomach fixed, but now it has to heal from the outside in. And that's gonna take awhile. She's in a medicated coma so her brain can register the changes, she'll be awake in about a week." Bruce sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Why couldn't you put her in a coma for the entire healing process? A body heals faster when they're asleep."

"Because we don't know how long it's going to take. She's already going to have to be technically in a coma for around 15 hours of the day."

"What are you gonna do knock her out at 7?" I joked.

"Unfortunetly that's the idea. If she sleeps as much as possible hopefully she'll heal soon. We need her to be ok."

I nodded. The week flew by and before I knew it, they let me go. I caught myself heading over to Peppers apartment, not mine. I don't know why, I guess I needed someone to listen.

I knocked, and she opened the door looking at beautiful as ever...not as beautiful as Michaela though...

"Tony...wha...what are you doing here?" She asked.

"I...I need someone to talk to...." I mumbled.

She nodded eagerly and let me walk in. It looked at it did before, except no pictures of us together. We sat down on the couch and she got me some tea.

"What happened?" She asked.

"I was taken, Hammer took me, some alien is helping him, they almost killed me. Michaela helped me, now she's in a coma. This whole thing made me realize that I can't continue to wait...I just need to live. I need to focus on my company, and...and making a family. I'm tired of going from girl to girl, I want a wife, and kids, and someone to be able to take over when I can't do it anymore..." I looked up at Pepper, hopeing that she'll help me figure out what I'm supposed to do. I know I said I was going to try with her again, but ever since that kiss, I know Michaela is all that I will ever need. She pulled me out of my thoughts when she kissed me. I didn't get the spark...I didn't get anything but familiarity. And I was at a moment of weakness so I kissed back. Things grew more intense and before I knew it we were laying in her bed naked. I felt guilt...like I had just cheated, but I technically didn't...right?

My phone rang, "Hello?"

"She's awake. And you aren't here. She looked devistated. What the fuck happened to you guys?" Clint snapped. I flinched.

"Uhm...nothing...Listen I'll be down there in alittle while bye." I hung up and started to get dressed.

"Whats wrong?" Pepper asked, pouting.

"Baby Dolls awake, I need to get over there." I said.

"Baby doll? I thought her name was Michaela..." She said looking down, "You never gave me a nick name...not even when we were together before..."

"It's because...shes just a baby and reminds me of a doll, I've called her that since we met sweety don't worry. Now I need to get down to the hopsital to make sure shes ok. Because she did save my life."

"What does this mean for us?" I hesitated...I didn't want to lead her on...but I really don't want to be with her like that...not anymore. Maybe I can make Michaela jealous! But...I don't want to do that to Pepper! I sighed...maybe I could learn to love her...

"It's whatever you want."

"Well what if what I want, and what you want are different."

"Either way, I'll find a way to be happy to be completly honest with you."

"See this is why I still love you Tony, you're always so honest. I want to give this one more go, maybe we can make it work this time? I mean I know you cheated on me and I said that I would never take you back...but I really do want to try again..." I got down on the bed and looked into her eyes.

"Then lets give it another go shall we? Now would you like to come with me to the hopsital?" I kissed her, hoping maybe I could forget about Michaela. And I did...until we got to the hospital. She was angry at me, livid even. And the worst part about it is that I knew that I would never be able live up to what I've done. I just pray that everything works out in the end. Michaela has done so much for me, and I'm here just doing what ever I want, and possibly playing with 2 girls emotions! Ugh...I hate myself right now. I will just have to go to the hospital and talk to Michaela alone tomorrow...
