HAY! I have adopted this story since SwedishTomboy no longer wants to continue this story.
Disclamer: I do not own Iron Man Armored Adventures. if I did there be alot more Pepperony. Also I do not own Chanel Smith, she belongs to Rhodey
Pepper walks with Rhodey to Social Studies.
"How did it go last night?"Pepper asks.
"Well, I had to fight since Whitney dragged him out."
"Out where?"Pepper looks confused.
"On a date. I thought you knew."Rhodey sighs.
The two friends don't like that Tony had given up and started to date Whitney. They've been dating for two weeks, and Whitney teases Pepper all the time because of it. Pepper acts like she doesn't mind, but she just want to smash her thru a wall.
"Well, I actually don't care. It's his life and he makes his choices."Pepper says, in a understanding."But I don't like it."
"Me neither."Rhodey smiles.
They walk into the classroom, where Tony and Happy talk to each other.
"Dude, Iron Man is so a robot!"Happy says stubborn.
"For the last time Happy, Iron Man is not a- Oh, hey guys!"Tony sees us and smiles.
"Hi!"Pepper says, very happy.
"Oh, what made you so happy?"Tony asks, smiling.
"Well, I got A+ on my Science report and I am going to the movies tonight."Pepper says.
"With who?"Happy asks.
"With my cousin, Barbara (Batgirl)."Pepper tries to hold in a happy squeal.
"Okay, enough with this, ladies."Rhodey laughs."Pepper and I are sitting in the back."
"Why don't you sit here?"Happy asks.
"I forgot to take my medicine."Pepper sighs.
"For what?"
"So I at least can be near that son of a-"Pepper says, but Rhodey covers her mouth.
"A girl shouldn't talk like that. Call her Whitney."Rhodey laughs.
"Sure sure. That son of a bitch."Pepper rolls her eyes and sits down in the back.
Tony smiles faintly and Rhodey follows Pepper. He drops his books next to her and sits down. Whitney walks in and sits down with Tony.
"I said that they are jerks."Whitney sighs with her honey-sweet voice."They are ignoring you because of me."
"They aren't ignoring me, Whitney. They are just-"Tony begins, but the teacher walks in to the classroom.
"Today, we are going to talk about the phenomena Iron Man."
Pepper smiles widely.
"Do you think he will screw up and tell his secret?"She whispers to Rhodey.
"If he can keep his mouth shut, we might get outta this alive."Rhodey chuckles.
"Is there something you two would like to say, Ms. Potts and Mr. Rhodes?"The teacher asks, angrily.
"Nothing, Sir."Pepper says polite and fires away a sweet smile.
The whole class, inclusive Tony Stark is paralyzed for seconds. Pepper's sweet side catches everybody in trance. It's a gift. Or a curse.
"Oh, then ehm…"The teacher stutters."You two can talk after class, Ms. Potts."
The teacher gives them an article on Iron Man.
"So, who is Iron Man?"The teacher asks.
"A robot!"Happy says.
Tony facepalms. Rhodey texts him fast. Tony looks at his pod.
Don't screw up now. Just shut up.
Tony laughs quietly.
"What?"Whitney asks.
"Nothing."Tony quickly replies and put his pod back in his pocket.
"I don't like it when you hide things for me."Whitney says.
"It's nothing, Whitney."
At the end of the day Tony walks up to his two best friends.
"I think Whitney is paranoid."He sighs."I don't have a personal life with her."
Pepper laughs.
"What?"Tony asks, a little irritated by the girl's lack of sympathy.
"I told you!"
"No, you didn't."
"I am saying it to Rhodey. She is like a fan girl. She will never leave you alone."
Tony rolls his eyes and turns to Rhodey.
"Don't look at me. I am agreeing with Pepper."He tries to not smile.
"Thanks for the support, guys."Tony laughs a little amused.
"Well, I am off to martial arts, see ya in the shop later?"Pepper sighs happily.
"Sure, bye Pepper!"Tony says and Pepper leaves the two boys alone.
Rhodey gives him an amused look.
"Do you really like Whitney?"He asks.
"I knew you would say that."Tony sighs."At least you spared me from saying it in front of Pepper."
"So you don't like her?"
"Nope. I like her like a friend, but I thought she'd break up with me by now, since I always ditch."
"Are you scared to break up with her?"
"A little. I mean, she got it bad enough as it is. And she-"Tony says low, but Whitney interrupts.
"What are you two whispering about?"She asks sweet.
"Ehm, nothing."Rhodey replies.
"Why do you guys hide everything for me?"She asks, with puppy eyes.
"We aren't hiding anything from you Whitney. We were talking about Iron Man."Rhodey smiles evil towards Tony.
"Oh! He's sooo cool!"
"Isn't he?"Rhodey says.
Tony sighs.
"I don't like Iron Man. He screws up to many times."Tony says.
"Oh, so you think he's a vigilante?"Whitney asks, overjoyed.
"I am going home, see ya tomorrow Whitney."Rhodey swings his bag over his shoulder.
"Where are we going today?"She asks Tony.
"Ehm, I have to study, so let's go home to me as well."Tony says.
I gotta break up with her. She's just annoying when she wanna be with me all the time.
Tony and Whitney catch up with Rhodey. They walk to the factory and sit down at the basketball court. Whitney doesn't of course, do her homework, so she sit and texts someone. Around 5'oclock Pepper runs in with another girl by her side.
"What took you so long?"Rhodey asks.
"Hi, I'm Chanel!"The girl with dark skin says.
She is slimmed, have green eyes and a "Foxxy Cleopatra" voice.
"Hey Chanel."Rhodey says.
"We're late 'cuz AIM is destroying half of New York."Pepper pants.
"What is AIM?"Whitney asks.
"Pepper, your imagination is fantastic."Rhodey sighs amused."Let's go and find us something to eat."
"Tag along, Chanel!"Pepper rolls her eyes.
When Whitney, Chanel and Rhodey are out of the room, Tony runs to Pepper.
"Where are they?"Tony asks, grabbing his armor backpack.
"Central Park. And I hate you."
"What is it now? I am kinda late."
"I can't believe you are so stupid."Pepper suddenly chuckles.
"Seriously, Pepper?"
"And you can spend some quality time with that bitch, while I save New York."She snaps the bag out of Tony's grip and runs towards the window.
"PEPPER!"
"See ya soon!"
She connects the backpack and pushes the button on her chest. She transforms in a second and flies out the window the second after.
"Crap."
Tony runs in to the shop, sitting down in the remote control chair. He connects with the suit and tracks her coordinates.
"Pepper!"He tries to reach her.
"What?"
"Ah."He sighs delighted."Get out of that suit."
"Nope."
"I am not asking you."
"And I am not stupid."
"Initiate Remote Control for Mark 002 armor."Tony sighs.
"Action failed."JARVIS, the computer system with a british voice, says.
"What?"
"Action fa-"
"I heard that, you stupid piece of junk, why is it failing?"
"The Mark 002 suit has broken free from this system."JARVIS replies.
"Awesome!"Pepper squeals and shoots down two henchmen.
"Damn, you're already there?"Tony facepalms."And don't break off with the system; it will take me hours to get it back online again."
"Well, go and spend some time with your wonderful girlfriend instead."Pepper laughs.
Damn, she is good for the first time. Much better than me.
"I gotta admit, you're pretty good for the first time."Tony smiles.
"And that what she said."Pepper laughs and slams a henchman down to the ground.
"Ha-ha Pepper."Tony rolls his eyes."I got a question for you."
"Shoot."
"Ehm, how do you break up with a girl without hurting her feelings?"
"You're breaking up with her? YESS! I mean yay…!"Pepper tries to control her emotions, but can't resist it.
"You seem happy."
"I hate her! She doesn't deserve you. You can get much better than her."
"Like who?"
"Ehm… I dunno. Chanel?"
"Rhodey got his eyes on her."
"Aww… Ehm… I don't really know a girl that really deserve you."Pepper stutters.
After the fight Pepper returns.
"Sorry about the suit."She apologized.
She smiles blushing.
Wow, she's really cute when she smiles. She's really cute whenever she does something. Her positive thinking, her smile and her way of talking. Stop it, Tony Stark. It's starting to sound like you got a chrush on Pepper.
"Oh, I maybe exaggerated the online reboot thingy."Tony mumbles."No worries."
"Okay. But I am still happy that you're breaking up with her. Or was that just trash talking?"
"I am just trying to find the right way to say it."Tony sighs."It's not easy you know."
"I can give you some tips, since Gene turned me down."
"You asked him out?"
"No, but he crushed me when he betrayed us and almost kill you two."
"Oh."Tony breathes.
"Aww Yeah."
"What?"
Pepper walks towards the exit. A text from Whitney.
Since you didn't show up and Pepper left, I am going home. See ya next time, jerk.
"It's not going to be that hard, she's pretty angry with me right now."
"Wohoo!"Pepper exclaims.
She struggles to get the door to open, and Tony walks to her.
"You have to twitch it like this… I haven't fixed it yet…"Tony says and shows her how to twitch it.
He puts his hands on hers and twitches the door. It slams open and closes fast again. They lose their balance and Pepper slams into the closed door and Tony can barely stop himself from landing on her. His right hand hit the wall over Pepper's head, which didn't break the fall so much. It's only 2 inches of air between them. When they understand the situation, they look at each other, their noses slightly touching.
Neither Tony or Pepper moves. Pepper's eyes sparkles in the shadow of him and Tony can't resist but planting his lips on hers. He leans in and their lips connect. He just waits for her hands pushing him away, yelling at him and angrily storming out. But she kisses him back.
Is she really kissing me back?
A pleasant feeling heats up Tony and he continues to kiss her. Pepper gently wraps her arms around his neck.
Don't screw this up Potts.
Their kiss deepens. Tony puts his left hand on her hip, making the gap between them disappear. After minutes of intense kissing, they part slowly. When their lips finally disconnects, Tony closes his eyes.
"I am so in trouble for this."He says low.
"I am so sorry, I shouldn't had kissed you-"Pepper blushes hard and stutters.
"Don't be. I'm not regretting it."Tony opens his eyes and locks onto hers."What I meant is that Rhodey is going to haunt me forever because of this. And Whitney will never forgive me."
"I can live with that."Pepper sighs.
Tony chuckles.
"But do they have to know?"She asks."Not that I am regretting this either."
"Well, Rhodey deserves to know."
"How are you going to break up with Whitney?"
"I don't know."
"When you've done that, I will wait for you."Pepper smiles wonderful.
"So you aren't gonna help me?"
"Sure, but then you'll have to be ready to take orders."
"That's what I am best at."
"Yeah right."
