A/N: So this is the first in a little series of Tony and Pepper drabbles/one-shots that I'll be posting... I accidently fell into a rather intense Iron Man obsession and until it calms down I don't think Sammy and Gibbs will come out to play much... So yeah but I hope you enjoy these at least!

Shaving

oOoOoOo

Pepper heard a string of grunts as she came up the stairs. She followed to sounds to the en suite bathroom in the bedroom where she found Tony attempting to shave with his left hand, his right arm still being in a sling from an Iron Man stunt gone wrong a couple days before. She sighed as she watched him nick his chin again with the razor before walking up to take it from him.

"Hey!" Tony squawked when the razor disappeared from his hand, "I was using that."

"Judging from all the noise you weren't doing very well," Pepper said, setting the razor on the counter so she could clean up the couple nicks that were still oozing slowly.

"I would have gotten it done eventually," Tony countered but made no move to make her stop, "It's hard to shave with your non-dominant hand y'know."

"You could have asked me to help," Pepper chided softly as she wiped the remnants of shaving cream from his face before applying a new layer where it was needed and starting to carefully pick up where he left off.

"You looked busy," Tony insisted, "and besides I'm a big boy, I can shave myself."

"I'm never too busy for you," Pepper said as she finished clearing the last bit of stubble from his cheek, finding as she finished that he had gotten quite far before she found him.

She gently wiped his face before placing a soft kiss on his lips to punctuate her point.

"Promise?" Tony asked smiling against her lips.

"Yes," Pepper said placing another small kiss on his lips before pulling away, "Now come on, let's have some dinner."

She took his good hand in hers and led him down to the kitchen, sitting him at the island in the middle of the room before getting to work making dinner. She definitely felt like she was more of a mother than a girlfriend some days but she had also realized she didn't mind all that much.
