Here's finally the story I promised when I was writing 'Reincarnated Into a Stark'! However, this is a new OC! This isn't Lillian Stark's story! Let's imagine a new universe, after all, there are a lot of them out there. This will definitely be a Peter ParkerxOC story, but since I'm writing every movie it's going to take a while since I get there.

I hope you enjoy this chapter. There is actually no dialogue here, it's a recap of everything, call it a prologue. The next chapter is already being written because I'm suddenly feeling the urge to write, and that is rare. Sorry about the mistakes!

Also, if you like PeterxOC stories then I suggest you read 'Some Things Never Sleep' by 'Lucky Strike's alter ego' because damn, now that's a good story.

[TRIGGER WARNINGS: MENTIONS OF POSSIBLE ABORTION]


Tony Stark was starting to get used to his hangovers and selective memories. It was January first, the new morning of a new year and as per usual, Stark threw a New Year's Eve small get together that turned into the fully crowded, drunken, mess his "small get-togethers" usually ended up like.

Between all the booze, women, shots and pretending these people liked him for not just his money and looks, Tony Stark's selective memory recalled a certain pair of innocent, brown eyes.

But she was not lying next to him when he woke up like he thought she'd be.

He didn't even ask her name. Or maybe he did and he didn't remember.

Tony Stark was thirty-two years old. How old had she been? More than twenty at least, he hoped as he prepared himself for a new day.

Six weeks passed, and everyone took a sigh of relief when January finally ended. Everyone was already past the New Year excitement and Tony was getting annoyed from the 'have a good year, sir' he'd get everywhere.

Obadiah Stane was Tony's mentor and his father's old friend. He trusted the man with business and he made Tony's life much simpler. And when Tony had hired Pepper Potts a few years back, it seemed that life wasn't as bad as he thought it was after his parents passed away.

So, six weeks had passed since that night with the brown eyes. And Tony would sometimes think about them, for some reason he couldn't take a bite from. Maybe because she had been his first hookup in two-thousand-and-two? That could be considered special.

Tony decided to avoid thinking about her, it made him feel strange.

Meanwhile, the woman whose brown eyes belonged to was in a state of misery. Not only she just found out that her roommate/best friend was dropping out and returning to her hometown but she also received shocking news that turned her world upside down: she was pregnant.

Emma Evans cursed at herself as she stared in the mirror of her own bathroom. Her long, blonde hair was messy and her mascara was all smudged around her eyes, not making them look so innocent anymore.

"You stupid whore!" she yelled at the mirror. If only Joan, the roommate that left, hadn't dragged her to that stupid Tony Stark end of the year party. The only reason they got in there was that Joan had been dating one of the waiters working there - which by the way, that relationship didn't even last two weeks afterward.

Emma's sudden anger for Joan dissipated as soon she let herself be rational, it wasn't her fault. She was the one that allowed Tony Stark to seduce her, she was the one that decided to start the year with a bang and finally lose her virginity - and to a famous billionaire nonetheless!

Now Emma regretted everything. She was twenty-one-years-old, almost finishing up her bachelor's degree in psychology and a baby was going to ruin her life.

She immediately pondered abortion, she had the right to do it. It's her life.

But then she lost the bravery to think about it. Emma could only watch the days pass by, her mind distracted on the life being created inside of her, and who the father of that life was. Could anyone believe Emma if she told them? Would Stark?

It was now April, she was now three months in. Emma decided to keep her child, but her relationship with her parents was almost severed when she announced her situation. She still kept secret who the father of the baby was, and in return, her mother called her a whore before hanging up.

They didn't talk for three weeks before her mother called her and apologized, both women cried on the phone for hours. Even her father was now calmer, accepting but still disappointed.

Emma changed her demeanor after that, she now wasn't concerned about her baby ruining her life. She wanted to be a clinical psychologist and move to New York City to work there. Her parents were from San Francisco and were a little concerned about having her living so far away and on a busy city but Emma was able to persuade them.

The only reason why she was in Malibu in the first place was that Joan had family there and they happily welcomed them in for the holidays.

Emma missed Joan, she hasn't told her about the pregnancy but they still talked through messages and e-mails. But it seemed that as the days passed, the less communication they held between each other, and Emma was expecting the day when they would just cease to speak to each other.

That day happened a month later when Emma was entering the fourth month and when she found out she was having a girl. Joan and Emma haven't spoken in three weeks by then, so the blonde just gave up on the friendship and continued with her life. A new start.

And that's when Emma began to think about telling Tony Stark because not only he deserved to know but she was also entitled to have his help, she wasn't wealthy like he was. Worst case scenario would be him not believing her, even if he did and did not want anything to do with the child, Emma knew his wealth would allow her daughter to have a good life.

We enter June, the fifth month, and Emma graduated with good grades and an expectant future. She would return to begin her master's degree because she was not giving up, but summer break allowed Emma to finally do what she wanted to do: tell Tony Stark he was going to be a father in three to four months.

The day when she got prepared, Tony woke up with a bad feeling. Which was strange because he luckily woke up with the model he had slept with the night before gone, he actually had a good breakfast and surprisingly did some work at Stark Industries. Pepper seemed to be a good mood because of that, and he liked when she was happy.

But he still had a bad feeling in his guts.

And when Pepper walked inside his office, giving him a warning look, with a woman trailing behind her, his heart fell.

The brown eyes, he recognized them right away.

Telling Tony Stark that she was pregnant and it was his had been easy for Emma, the hardest part was what came next. He laughed, in her face, but then explained that almost every week a woman calls implying that she's expecting his baby and that after a quick warning of a paternity test they never contact him again.

Tony became anxious when Emma didn't seem even bothered. She was confident that he was the father, she recalled him of the night at his end of the year party, they slept together. And he cringed when Emma told him it had been her first time as well, that also made Pepper almost murder him on the spot.

Pepper fell bad for the girl, she couldn't help to glance at the bump she carried with her, and if Emma was right then she was going to murder Tony for real.

Emma then said she didn't come here for money, but Tony's patience ran short when he asked why did she wait all this time to tell him, why not come here right away?

The blonde was speechless at the, and genuinely told him she had been scared. She almost lost her parents, she had lost her friend and she wanted to finish college. Bills were piling up and she felt guilty for letting her parents pay them, Emma bravely demanded Tony to pay for child support if he didn't want to be a part of their daughter's life.

Tony was so shocked at the gender's reveal that all he could think about was that.

Pepper saw how much agitated the girl was starting to become, she sat her down in front of Tony's desk and grabbed a glass of water, soothingly telling her to calm down. Pepper then told Tony to immediately get a grip, and that she warned him that this was his responsibility as well, she said that if Emma was indeed pregnant with his child that she expected Tony to act on with it, he made his bed and now he had to lie in it!

Tony laughed, he started to have a fit. He startled the two woman, he didn't find anything funny but he laughed. This was absolutely the last thing he wanted, to be a father. Somehow he had believed Emma, looking at her eyes it was obvious that the girl wasn't lying. What made Tony laugh was how quick Pepper was to protect her, how fast the two had each other's back. Christ, they just met.

He thought about how fascinating women were, and now he was going to be the father of a girl. That soon would become a woman. That soon would understand how much of a terrible father he was going to be. That would slam doors in his face, not want to see him, date sleazy guys just to get his attention.

He stopped laughing.

Not on his watch.

Tony apologized for laughing and immediately told Emma that he wanted to be part of their daughter's life, but for her not to take it personally when he said that he didn't want a steady relationship with anyone.

Emma cut him quickly, stating that she had no intentions of marrying him, he wasn't really her type.

Tony told Pepper to cancel the meetings for the rest of the day, and then he took Emma to his mansion for them to converse more calmly and freely.

And then Happy Hogan met Emma and when he saw his boss leaving the building with a pregnant woman the personal driver almost had a heart attack right there. He wasn't told anything, but Tony respected Happy's intelligence enough for the man to realize what was finally happening, and when Happy means finally he meant that he had a feeling this would occur after countless nights driving his boss's "dates" in and out of the mansion.

Tony Stark wasn't perfect. With so many women, he was bound to make a mistake.

Safe to say that Happy drove carefully and Emma took a liking to him.

Half a day passed, and Tony suggested a paternity test after the birth. Emma accepted without hesitating, it was clear that at this point Tony was impressed by how calm she was. They ended up talking for the rest of the day, and Tony actually got to meet the mother of his possible child.

She was almost twenty-two-years-old, and she was born in San Francisco. She was studying to become a clinical psychologist at the University of California-Berkeley, which was only fifty minutes by car and thirty-five minutes by train away from her house.

Tony realized that this woman liked to be near home.

Which it shocked him when Emma told him she wanted to move to New York City and get a job there when she graduated. So she was ambitious, he respected that.

From San Francisco, it was a six-hour ride to Malibu, but Emma told him she'd been fine with driving so long here, he deserved to know. Tony, however, refused to believe in that when she saw how tired she looked. He offered one of his guest rooms for her to stay the night, it was getting dark out there and he was worried about a pregnant woman driving back home for six hours by herself.

After dinner, and before going to sleep, Emma gave Tony something that he didn't know what it was. She amusedly explained that it was the baby's ultrasounds. From the first one to the most recent, and Tony could clearly see the growth and the confirmation that the baby was indeed a girl.

He waited until she left him alone for him to finally started wheezing, JARVIS, who had been quiet all this time, offered some comfort with a congratulations notice, and Tony accepted all of it.

As he watched the starry sky from his bedroom, Tony closed his eyes and listened to the waves from the ocean down below. His bad feeling vanished, but it was now replaced with anxiety.

Was he going to be able to be a good father?

Two months passed by, and Tony was now starting his plans for a nursery in his mansion. It wasn't confirmed yet if the kid was his but he found himself trusting Emma, also, Pepper seemed to have a feeling she was being honest as well. She helped her boss picking clothes, colors, toys - she also warned Tony not to buy too many toys, which he visibly ignored when he bought a giant 'welcome' teddy bear that would never fit in a hospital room.

Speaking of which, Tony already planned everything for the birth. But first he had asked Emma, the woman had temporarily moved in. After her approval, he managed to already book a private hospital room and arranged a doctor that would keep the birth confidential, or else.

Pepper and Tony had a conversation about what would happen if the child was his, how long would Tony wait until telling the world? Would Emma want that? The kid was going to be the most famous person without reaching the age of one as soon as she was born, so they needed to talk this through.

And Tony didn't want to stress Emma, she was so big and far into the pregnancy that he was scared she'd break. One time Emma missed the last step from the staircase and almost fell down, she didn't but Tony did when he tried to grab her.

Emma laughed for thirty minutes.

Not only their relationship improved during those two months, but it would have seemed that the two became rather close, they were friends.

Happy was excited of course, and when Tony told Rhodey the news, the man literally whooped with joy. Pepper would just tell Tony how lucky he was, he could have impregnated a girl that could've caused drama and too much attention.

Being seven months pregnant was tough, especially during August. California was hot and sunny all year and Emma took comfort inside the mansion, with the air conditioner.

On a warm night, Emma's parents were there. And Tony decided he liked them. Her father was a serious man that loved his daughter and wife more than anything, and Emma's mom was a very preoccupied woman that tended to be over-protective. They had a strong bond, Tony recalled his relationship with his own parents - it didn't sit well.

We were now in September, and everyone was on high alert. Emma decided to continue her studies online, starting her master's degree in psychology in her now high-tech laptop that Stark upgraded. Her belly was huge now, she liked placing cups on top and watching her daughter move it.

Emma and Tony came to terms with a name during a summer thunderstorm where they were both watching Pretty Woman.

Primrose Maria Evans-Stark.

Tony couldn't thank enough Emma for allowing his late mother's name in there, and her answer was to shush him because her favorite part was coming.

Emma turned twenty-two, there was a small party with her parents, Pepper, Happy and Rhodey. Obadiah Stane was not invited, Emma met him once and told Tony he looked at her like a creep, he laughed it off but didn't invite him anyways, out of respect for her.

October rolled in and on the sixteenth day, at nine in the evening, Emma's water broke.

Tony reacted by simply grabbing the bag that Emma and Pepper prepared and wait inside the car like he was told to do, Happy was there, talking to him and trying to calm down the panic look on Tony's expression. Finally, when Pepper and Emma got inside the car, Happy's driving went between careful to fast as Emma's screaming was making everyone anxious.

It took them half-an-hour to get there, and as soon as Tony yelled for help the nurses took Emma to the private room. The doctor that was going to give birth to his daughter rushed at him to get dressed, or was he going to wait outside?

Snarky.

Happy and Pepper didn't see either Tony or Emma for the following five hours. Rhodey arrived one hour after they got there, all sweaty and clearly concerned. And when Tony returned to grab a cup of coffee, Pepper, Rhodey, and Happy jolted up from their sleepy state on the uncomfortable chairs and bombarded him with questions because it was almost three in the morning and there were no signs of baby yet, Emma was waiting to start pushing and he told them she was getting impatient as well.

Tony returned to Emma after his coffee break, and three hours later he appeared again, tears still fresh on his cheeks and eyes as he told them Primrose was here, and that she was healthy and so small. The paternity test was being made as they spoke but none of them seemed to care because even though Happy was just his private driver, Pepper was just his P.A and Rhodey just his best friend – they were all attached to Emma and Primrose already.

And when the test returned positive, that Tony Stark was officially a father, he already knew that as he held his daughter while Emma rested. Primrose was his, he was her daddy. And even though that a small voice in the back of his mind was telling him that he was going to be a terrible father, Tony chose to ignore it for now as he enjoyed the sight of his baby girl sleeping peacefully in his arms.

Primrose Maria Evans-Stark, born on October seventeenth at six-thirty five in the morning, was the best thing that ever happened to Tony Stark after the tragic loss of his parents.
