(Alright sooo I decided to do this story now since I won't have the weekend to write stories :( but that just means I'm gonna make this one awesome! :D enjoy!)
Tony, Pepper and Rhodey had graduated from high school and moved on to college. They all wanted to take a course that had them together so they decided to take a science course. They were in the last five minutes of class talking about what people were doing to the environment. "Did you hear they're cutting down that forest by that park in maple road?" said a student to the teacher. "Yes it's really bad they are half way done" said the teacher. That caught Pepper's attention a little and started tuning into what the teacher said.
"Also someone actually bought that park and is planning to make some store there" said the teacher. Pepper stood up. "Maplewood Park?" Pepper asked. "Y-Yes" said the teacher. The bell rang and Pepper rushed out with Tony and Rhodey following her. Tony grabbed her arm. "Hey slow down what's the rush?" he asked. Pepper stopped and paused for a bit. "Umm it's nothing" she said releasing her arm from him. "Pepper you know that doesn't slide by me" he said. "Really it's nothing, listen I gotta go I'll meet up with you later" she said giving him a peck on the cheek and ran out of the building.
Tony stared at the direction she ran in. "Go man" said Rhodey. "Will you be okay?" he asked. "Yeah I got some studying to do" Rhodey said. Tony walked out of the building and looked around. "Where did she go?" he asked himself. Tony looked around for about an hour or so and called and called. "I guess I'll just have to trust she'll come to the armory" he said. When Tony arrived to the armory he found Pepper sitting at the computer typing like crazy. "Hey Pep" Tony said walking to her. Pepper jumped and immediately ejected a chip from the table which was actually the computer, Tony made a holographic screen type mobile computer but of course since it was so small I couldn't hold much memory.
Pepper held it tight behind her back. "Hi" she said nervously. "Yeah you can't lie to me after that" he said running to her trying to snatch the chip away. Tony pinned her to the floor and got on top of her trying to get the chip. "N-No you can't see it!" she said struggling to keep him away. Tony fought her for it, Pepper finally got him off of her and ran for the door but Tony was too fast for her. He grabbed her by the waist and lifted her off her feet. "Let me go!" she said struggling. "Let go of the chip" he said. "No!" she said. Tony started squeezing her and she winced. "Let goooo" he said. Pepper shook her head no.
Tony put her on the floor again and grabbed her wrists and started shaking her. "Quit being so stubborn!" he said. Finally she grew tired and dropped the chip. "There we go finally!" he said picking it up. He inserted it back and looked through it. "Let's see what we have here" he said. Pepper sat up and faced away from Tony crossing her arms and sitting Indian style. "Why are you reading an article about that park?" he asked. Pepper ignored him. "Are you upset it's getting destroyed?" he asked but Pepper once again ignored. Tony drooped his head down. "Pepper don't be like that I wanted to know so that I could help you" he said.
She still ignored, Tony walked up behind her, got on his knees and wrapped his arms around her neck but she just stayed a straight face. "Tell me why you're so upset" he said in her ear. "Go away" she said. Tony smiled and started kissing her neck and Pepper was reacting. "Stop it that tickles" she said smiling. Tony hugged her tighter. "Please tell me why you're so sad" he said. Pepper turned around facing him. "That park means a lot to me because….." Pepper said and stopped herself. "Because what?" he asked. "I used to go there with my mom before she died" she said. "I had buried some photos we took at that park and other photos too in a box deep underground" she said. "I buried them there because it was our spot and I just couldn't see her face again or I would break down" she said. "Aw Pepper" Tony said hugging her. "That place is all that reminds me of her" she said letting out a tear. Tony wiped it from her face. "I'll help you" he said.
"But how…." She said. "Listen I know I'm smart and all but I can't think of plans that fast" he said. Pepper smiled and kissed him. "But in the mean time let's get some studying done the teacher did say they won't start until Thursday which is two days from now" he said. "Alright" Pepper said. Tony helped her up and went to the college library where Rhodey was.
