"No, Tony."
"Why?"
Pepper sighed. Yes, she loved that man, but oh God, he could be really irritating sometimes. She just wanted him to stop bothering her with that. It's been two weeks since he got this stupid idea, and he didn't want to give it up. Stubborn man.
"You know why. And please, can we stop talking about that?"
"But Pepper, think about how incredible it would be for Vogue's next photoshoot in April. People will see how involved I am with the environment and-"
"Oh, so the only thing that really matters is your public image?"
"No, Pep! I'm just trying to convince you. This would be great for a lot of reasons."
"Seriously? Because I think this would be anything but great for us..."
"This would be a new friend? I'm sure you'd love him like... like a son!"
She looked at him, sceptical. Did he just hear what he said?
"Tony, no means no. We're NOT going to adopt a snake."
He was about to say something, but she interrupted him by putting her hand over his mouth.
"Even if you're the one who feed it, it's still no."
"You know, I don't want one as big as an anaconda, just a cobra. That would be cool."
"No negotiations, Honey. And now, I'd like to sleep. I can't believe you woke me up at 3 a.m. for this..."
"It's not 'this', his name would be Tony Jr."
"Good night, Tony."
She removed her hand (even if it didn't prevent him from talking) before quickly kissing him. When Pepper closed her eyes and was about to sleep, she heard Tony whisper into her ear.
"Think about it."
"You're getting on my nerves..."
"Love you too, Pep."
THE END.
