I was sitting alone in my room, waiting for Peter to show up. Tony's funeral was in a few hours but Peter was coming early so we could get all our tears out together before hand.

And as I was pulling my black sweater on over my black dress, the watch on my wrist buzzes and my Ai, Dana, begins to speak. "Tony Stark has sent you a message. Would you like for me to open it?"

My heart stops at her words. I look down at my watch, eyebrows raised in confusion. "What did you just say?"

And instead of responding, Dana decides to just play the message: "Hey, R. It's T."

Tears fill my eyes when I hear his voice. I just missed him so, so much. "If you've received this message, than something went wrong on the mission and I didn't make it. So... told you so." I can hear my heart shattering in my chest as I sit down on my bed because I was starting to get light headed. "Anyways, you didn't want to hear my death will when I was alive, so I guess you'll be hearing it this way."

I squeeze my eyes shut as tears ran down my cheeks, dripping down my neck. "R... I'm really sorry. I am... But you know what? You're going to be okay. I know you are. You're strong. Really strong." He pauses and I can hear him taking a deep breath. "Just... do me a favor, alright? Take care of Morgan for me, will ya? Look out for her. She's too smart for her own good. And she loves you and thinks your her sister. So, don't let her think otherwise..." He pauses. "And I'm just letting you know right now, that if you and Peter don't get married, I swear to god I'll haunt both your asses myself."

I smile at that, shaking my head, trying to picture Tony being in the room with me. "I know things are tough, and they have been for the past five years... but it's gonna get better. I promise you, okay? It will... And look, keep this message on the downlow, I didn't make one for everyone. I just knew that you'd need one last little pep talk from your old man."

I let out an ugly laugh at that, placing my hand over my mouth. "Be careful out there, R. I know that whatever you do next will be amazing. I'm counting on it. Alright, I love ya..." And then the message ends.

Just like that... he's gone again.

I sit there for a good few minutes, contemplating Tony's message. Even though it made me sad, it also made me happy. Proud, almost. I really needed that pep talk, like Tony said. It helped a lot.

Yeah, I'm gonna miss Tony like crazy. But I can't forget about what I have now either. Morgan, the Avengers, my friends, Peter. I just have to focus on the good things happening in my life, but I'll make sure no one ever forgets him. I'll make sure everyone knows his name.

Iron Man. A friend. A dad. A husband. A hero.

Tony fucking Stark.
