I sat down at the coffee table in Starbucks, My wheel chair was so uncomfortable, and Tony insisted on being on the other side of the small coffee shop with sunglasses. Please like Pepper wouldn't notice. The moment she walked in time stood still. Her puffy red eyes, showing that she had been crying. Her pale flushed cheeks, and her messy bun on the top of her head. I internally sighed, I couldn't start dating Tony until Pepper was over him, and judging by the looks it seems like she won't be over him for a long time. My fingers drummed onto the cold frappichino as she made her way over to me. Avoiding eye contact.
"What did you want to talk about Michaela?" Pepper asked sitting down across from me, still avoiding eye contact.
I sighed, how do I start this? 'Hey Pepper I wanna date Tony, are you over him yet?' No. That would be weird, "I just, I wanted to see how you were doing. Tony told me what you did." I muttered just above a whisper. knowing Tony would try to listen in.
Her eyes lit up at the sound of that, "How is Tony? Are you guys together? Is he happy?" She started bombarding me with questions.
"He's fine, we aren't, and at the moment I don't think so." Her eyes fell at my words, she was sending me mixed signals now.
"Oh...I just...I thought that if I let him go to you, than he'd be happy..." Her eyes started to well up with tears.
I put a hand on hers, "Please don't cry, that's why I wanted to talk to you. Pepper I want to know if it's okay if I date him. You guys have alot of history and I know you like him alot. I don't want to start dating him if you aren't over him." I hoped she would understand.
She sighed and looked up at me, "You know to be honest I don't think I'll ever be over him. He was the first person I ever loved. But I know that it's only fair that I give him that chance too, Yes I wish he looked at me the way he looks at you, but I know he never will. I won't be over him for a long time. And I appreciate that you're caring about my feelings. I really do. But I know that the second time around was me just trying to get a kick out of something that I knew was never going to work ever again. I want you two to be together, that's why I let him go. I want you to be happy." She gave me a sad smile, and now it was my turn to start crying.
"Pepper you're such a sweetheart. I promise you that you're going to find someone a billion times better than Tony out there that will send sparks through your body every time you see him."
"I know I will, everyone has that special person. You just found yours before me." She giggled, I smiled back at her, "Hows your leg anyway?"
I looked down at my stupid cast that was filled with signatures from all of the Avengers. Some saying very stupid or provacative things, "It's fine, healing. It sucks that I'm being forced to be in this stupid wheel chair though. This thing is nothing but a nuisance." I snarled and glared at my uncomfortable seat.
She rolled her eyes at me, "You'll be fine....Can I tell you something that I don't want you ever repeating to anyone ever again?" She asked leaning in close. I nodded, "Well though I'm not fully over Tony and trust me! I won't do anything because I don't want him to be a rebound, but theres this guy at my new work. We haven't touched at all, but we've talked a few times. Mainly because he's well..the boss. But he I don't know theres something about him. And I think that when I get over Tony I want to...I don't know. I don't know why I'm thinking about this now! Gosh I'm so silly for thinking this!" She rambled on. I giggled. She glared at me and pursed her lips a little bit.
"Pepper calm down, if you think you like him already than just....let fate take over." I smiled and glanced back at Tony, "Just like I think I need to do." I murmured. Tonys eyes met mine and he smiled at me. I smiled back.
"Well I think I'll let you and Tony get reaquanted and Michaela?" She asked. I looked up, "Thank you." She left with a smile on her face. I smiled and wheeled my way over to Tony. He smirked and let me back to Stark Towers.
"Soo what did she say?" He asked.
"She said that we need to wait 3 years." I joked. He started to pout, "I'm joking. She said she didn't care basically. All she wanted was for you and I to be happy and if that meant being together now than that's what it meant."
"Sooo does that mean that we cann?" He asked as we got into the loft.
"Well it depends. Are you gonna ask me properly?" I joked.
"See now why should I do that when in reality all I have to do is kiss you." He mumbled, his face centimeters from mine.
"Because if we do anything it's gonna be going on a proper date and cuddling. I have a stupid fucking cast on Tony, the most I'm doing until I'm fully healed is cuddling." He huffed and moved away from me and turned on the TV. We sat in silence for awhile until my tummy decided to growl.
"What should we do for dinner?" He asked glancing at me and pausing the movie.
I shrugged, "I want a salad honestly."
He glared at me, I knew I couldn't get away with only eating a salad around him, "No. Pick some protien!"
I scoffed, "Fine, pizza."
He smiled, "That's more like it. So what movie do you wanna watch best friend?" He asked while emphasizing friend, and leaning me into him. I rolled my eyes.
"You already know what kind of movies I like sir." I snickered and leaned into his chest more.
"So Aladdin or Mulan?"
"Both?" I have him a stupid look. He snickered when the doorbell rang. He jumped up and ran over to a weird....talk into thingy.
"Come up to the top floor."
"Okay Mr. Stark." A few minutes later there was a knock at the door and he answered it. A few minutes of talking and passing the money and pizza he finally sat down and we started eating. Hours later we were laying on his bed trying to figure out how I was going to shower.
"What if we do what we did before? But this time...we shower together and just wrap up your cast?" He murmured pulling me close. I scoffed and pushed him away.
"Remember what I said Mr. Stark."
"Ughhh." I giggled and pulled him into a hug and kissed him cheek. His cheeks grew a bright red as he buried it into the crook of my kneck and hugged me closer.
"Tell you what, help me wrap up my ankle and than I'll do everything else okay?" He nodded after half a roll of duct tape and a very...awkward shower I was laying in bed with him. There was an awkward silence. Not because we had nothing to say, but because we had...way to much tension going on. But both of us were oh so horny. I blame him.
"Sooo Baby doll...uhm....Cuddling.. but no sexy time?" He pouted. I scoffed and looked at his lips. The sexual tension was unbelievable, I've already considererd breaking my promise to myself several times and it's only day one. I felt myself involuntarily bite my lip. I would have hoped Tony didn't notice. But he did. I watch his face come closer to mine, and I felt myself get closer as my eyes fluttered close, slowly he pulled me into a sweet gentle kiss.
