Ch.4

But now it's all good baby
Roll that Backwood baby
And play me close

liana sang loudly sitting on Tony's work table swinging her legs to the rhythm of the loud music as Tony came spinning towards her, lifting her with one arm and with the other he held the hammer he was using as a microphone.

'Cause girls like you
Run around with guys like me
'Til sundown, when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah

"Umm sir there might be some problem with the-" came Jarvis's voice but Tony cut him "Not now Jarvis"

"Yes mr. Stark"

Liana giggled as he discarded the hammer and started dancing with her, which comprised only of weird and funny steps on his part and jumping on her.

Girls like you
Love fun, yeah me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah

BOOM

They both cried hugging each other, when there was a blast on the other side of the lab, a small fire has erupted in place of Tony's latest project.

Dum-E was already there with his fire extinguisher using it on the part where There was no fire.

"Tony" came pepper's muffled Shout followed by her footsteps

"We're just playing Dodge ball " Tony called back, clearly panicking over what she would do to him if she finds out that he has fire and Liana in the same room.

He looked pleadingly at liana and mouthed 'help Me'. Liana sighed and shook her head dramatically before running upstairs to distract pepper.

"I knew you will always have my back, pal" he called after her.

*****

Tony staggered inside the Stark tower with a bag of take out shwarma, the lift door opened to a hyperventilating pepper, who was walking back and forth.

She half ran to him and smashed her lips to his, putting his hands on her waist he pulled her closer to him and deepened the kiss.

He smiled into the kiss even though he  had to face her wrath later, Tony looked around at his destroyed home, he can't even describe how grateful he was that they were not here when it happened.

Grateful that he agreed to pepper's proposal to take Liana with her on the business trip.

Speaking of which, pepper nudged him "go talk to her"

He walked to Liana who was standing in front of rubble that used to be her room, a cute little pout on her lips, Tony put his hand on his shoulder "hey", she looked up and smiled before hugging his legs

"Come here" he said lifting her and giving her a proper hug.

"That was cool" she said after a few seconds of silence, though her red rimmed eyes were the proof that she had been crying.

"You think so" Tony said sitting on a couch with her, she nodded

"your friends, can I meet them"

"umm let me think" Tony rubbed his cheek then with a mischevious smile he added "kidding, I already invited them tomorrow, they will help us fix this mess"

"Really" she asked

" I suspect that they can though " he looked around turning silent, they have been lucky once to not be here and from what he has seen up there, he was certain that those things will be back again and Stark tower was a center of attraction wasn't it, that's why Loki choose it.

He sighed when Liana leaned at him yawning, he ruffled her hair "listen about your room"

"Its ok, it was too pink for my taste" she mumbled closing her eyes, making Tony smile
