Her Heart: Part 2 (Tony Stark)

Tony Stark X Reader

Warnings: multiple parts

------------------------------------------------------------------

(Y/N) made her way down the hallway and once she was out of Bruce's line of sight, she glanced back to make sure he hadn't followed her.

"FRIDAY where is Mr Starks lab?" FRIDAY directed her down the hall. She wasn't necessarily breaking her promise to Bruce, when she left she wouldn't get caught. She just wasn't leaving yet.

She stopped outside Tonys lab windows and peered in only to see Sam and Steve standing in there. Tony caught her eye and she offered him a smile before ducking back round the corner.

He made an effort to usher both men out of his lab and once out he collect (Y/N) from the corner she was hiding behind.

"I'm 90% sure Bruce wouldn't like you being here" he stated as his lab door closed behind them.

"He doesn't have to know" she said, her voice was always so angelic like, even when she was being mischievous and Tony couldn't get enough of it.

"I won't tell if you don't" he smirked at her.

"You have a deal Mr Stark. So did the repulsors work?" He nodded.

"How'd you do it?" She began to explain, but he was so mesmerized by her that he only caught bits and pieces and he knew he'd have to get FRIDAY to repeat it all too him later.

He was sad to see her go, but helped her sneak out nonetheless. The following week she returned to help him with whatever he was working on. The next week she returned again only this time he helped her with a project she'd been working on.

The pair made a habit of this. (Y/N) would meet Bruce and then sneak into the lab to see Tony. Even on days where they didn't have anything to work on they'd just chat, occasionally (Y/N) even let Tony rest his head on her lap while he took a nap. She would run her hand through his hair to sooth him into some much needed sleep. Until one week she didnt show up.

(Y/N) was sat with Bruce talking over today's test results. It was nothing new of course. Bruce sighed running a hand through his hair.

"I'm going to talk to Dr Cho, get a second opinion" he said finally admitting defeat.
(Y/N) smiled widely at her brother.

"Does that mean I can meet the others?" Excitement laced her voice.

"No (Y/N), it means I can't figure out what's wrong with you and we're running out of time!" He yelled shoving things of off his desk and onto the floor. She immediately rushed over to him.

"I'm sorry Bruce, it's okay. I'll be okay, whatever happens. You don't need to worry." She helped steady her brother as he calmed down.

(Y/N) didn't feel like seeing Tony that week, or the next or any week after that. What was the point, she was a dying woman. Even Dr Cho couldn't work out what was wrong.

Sighing after almost a month of not seeing Tony she was on her way out of the tower when someone rudely grabbed her arm and dragged her down the corridor. Before she could register what had happened she was in the lab with Tony. He seemed angry, no hurt.

"Where the hell were you?" He snapped.

"Busy" he was angered at her reply, but when she lifted her head so her eyes met his, he could see how tired she looked and his anger melted away. He pulled her into a hug.

"What happened?" Tony murmured into her hair inhaling her scent like it was the last time he'd see her. He didn't know how accurate he was.

"Tony I- I'm sorry I shouldn't have let you get attached to me, it wasn't fair" he pulled back from her, placing his hands firmly on her shoulders.

"Why are you apologising?" He asked worry begining to overcome him.

"Tony it's my heart, it's not working properly and we don't know what's wrong. It's getting worse and hnfh-" as if on cue she doubled over in pain clutching her chest.

"What is it? What's wrong?" Tony asked frantically. (Y/N) shoved her bag into his hands.

"My- shit- meds, my meds. They-" she cried in pain once again, Tony got the gist of what she was saying and began rummaging through her bag. Upon finding the small pack of painkillers he shoved them into her hands. (Y/N) downed a few, grasping the glass of water Tony thrust into her hands and downing that too.

"Are you okay?" He asked concern still etched into his face. Before (Y/N) could reply Steve, Natasha and Bruce rushed into the lab.

"Tony are you okay, FRIDAY said someone was in distress?" Cap asked looking around shield in hand, before laying eyes on (Y/N). He lowered his weapon and gave Tony a confused look. Tony and (Y/N) were both too focused on Bruce and how he would react.

"How long have you two been-" Bruce started.

"Brucey I didn't fuck the guy if that's what you're asking" he laughed lightly at you, but his expression was cold.

"Yeah no shit, the test Dr Cho just ran. Any kind of physical activity could kill you (Y/N). This is why you-" he ran a fustrated hand through his hair and tried to calm himself down "you're supposed to tell me everything so I can factor it into my tests" he said calming himself down as best he could.

"I know, I'm sorry. It was just nice to have a friend and get to know at least one of the people you work with" she offered her brother a sympathetic smile.

"Who is she?" Nat asked. Tony looked at both Natasha and Steve.

"Out now" he stated when they didn't leave he raised his voice "Now!" They both begrudgingly obliged and left the lab.

Tony gestured to the seat next to Bruce and he sat down.

"What's wrong with her heart?" Tony asked bluntly. Bruce looked up at him.

"We- I don't know. She gets pains in it and it beats too fast and, I'll just send you the list" he gave a defeated sigh "it's like nothing I've seen before, none of her symptoms make sense" Bruce glanced over at his sister. He'd failed her.

"I might not be around much longer Tony" Tony shook his head at (Y/N)'s words.

"We'll take her to Wakanda, have Shuri look at her" he said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. Bruce shook his head.

"She won't know what's wrong either"

"She your sister Bruce we have to try damnit! Go arrange a flight over there and forward me and Shuri her test results" Tony stormed out of the lab (Y/N) hot on his heels, after checking her brother was okay.

(Y/N) placed a tentive hand on Tony's shoulder, turning him to face her.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked "I'm a lost cause"

"You're Bruce's sister" Tony replied pushing his feelings to the side.

"I know you'd hate to see your science bro upset, but that's not it" (Y/N) teased.

"Maybe it's because the world needs more smart and kind hearted people" he commented looking over (Y/N)s shoulder. She grasped his face between her hands and forced his gaze to meet hers.

"No, you wanna know what I think it is?" She said, that ethereal grin tugging at her lips. Tony hummed in response "I think it's because you love me" Tony returned her cheeky grin.

"Oh is it now?" He asked, she nodded with a smile.

"Normally I wouldn't be this forward, but I'm a dead woman walking so I thought why not and if I'm wrong then-" she was interrupted from her ramblings when Tony's rough lips met her soft ones.

The kiss was tender and slow, it was filled with love. Everything they'd imagined it would be. (Y/N)s hands moved from the sides of Tony's face, to tangle in his hair, his wrapped around her waist. He pulled away from her, but they stayed in each others embrace staring into the eyes of the other person like some cheesy rom com ending.

"I'll fix this" Tony hummed "I'll make you better" in that moment his promise was all she needed.
