Elf ignored her older brother as he started to flirt with women who were about her age. Meaning around twenty-two years old girls who are blonde, big breast, flawless skin, long legged, etc etc. Whenever she sees his conquest of the night before she asks how she felt being with the manwhore.
Such a nice sister.
"What are we going to do with him." she heard their driver, Happy (Tony's idea not hers), muttered as he opened the limo door for her.
"I can always get him neutered." she quipped to the man who acted more like a brother then his boss ever was to his sister.
"Then we have to deal with a sex deprived Stark. Do you really want to deal with him like that?"
"I don't want to deal with him at all." was the simple reply the youngest Stark replied.
Happy closed the door when his young charge was in the limo and looked to his boss. He felt sorry for both Starks, neither knew how much they hurt each other. Elf was just a baby when Howard and his wife died, leaving Tony to take charge. Only to take care of the family company and not the family. That was also the time when he started to drink and, as Elf put it, 'manwhore' about.
"Come on in, beautiful." Tony purred as he took the most beautiful girl out of the four women gathered around him. The other three women pouted and walked away while the tall curvy blonde clung to the billionaires arm with a wicked smile. Tony opened the door and let the women in and got in himself, smiling and keeping his sunglasses on.
Both got to work on each other quickly, all the while ignoring the brunette young women who was starring out the window.
"Please drive Happy. I need to get away from the carrier of the Black Plague as fast as I can." Elf said quietly. Even though the couple who were stuck together like glue and moaning like crazy the driver could still hear her.
Elf was lost in her own mind, ignoring her brother and his conquest. All the while rubbing her wrists raw and reopening the thin cuts that littered her wrists beautifully. She started cutting when she was 11, it was after one of the women Tony was with got the bad end of the break-up and went too far with the insults. She ran and didn't come out until Pepper, new personal assistant, came in and looked for Elf. Elf emerged from a kitchen cabinet with two new cuts in attempt to end her life, but only managed to get shallowed cuts.
No one ever noticed the cuts, or the new ones that appeared three weeks later. No one noticed anything.
"We're here Elf." Happy said to the young girl who hadn't move since they started driving nearly 45 minutes ago.
The only response he got was her holding out her arms out for him to carry her. He smiled and picked her up and headed towards the large house to her room.
People would expect a girl who's a billionaire to have a grand and expensive room, but Elf had it plan and simple. Her room was in dark colors of green, blue, purple, and black. They all tied together with silver. There were two bookcases on two different walls of the largish room, one held regular books while the other held art supplies and notebooks.
Happy walked across the dark stained wooden floors to her bed and gently laid her on it, took of her shoes, and pulled a light weight throw blanket on her. Making sure she was comfortable on her dark green and blue bed, he left quietly.

Tony sat in his master bedroom just starring off into space. He left that reporter in one of the guest rooms, he didn't like random girls coming into his private room.
He starred at the clear sky and thought back to when he went into the limo earlier. That girl who was standing their with this dense air around her sort of freaked him out. And she came into the limo! And Happy let her come in! Tony didn't know if his old friend drove her home or not, but he was irked that that girl was in the limo with them. Although he didn't really pay attention to her due to the hot blonde in front of him, but he felt the sorry and sad feelings rolling off her in waves.
"JARVIS?" Tony said softly. Old habit being in a large, mostly empty house.
"Yes sir?" the british AI replied almost instantly.
"Who was that girl?"
"The blonde or brunette, sir?" JARVIS replied like he was talking to a three year old.
"Brunette. And watch the tone, I could easily give you to a elementary school." Tony snarked at the robotic butler.
"Of course sir. That was Elf Stark sir, your twenty-one year old sister."
That clicked in the genius' mind. NOW he remembered her, the little kid always asking for attention like wanting to play or to watch him work. It was a pity that he easily forgot about her. Tony dimly remembered that she was very smart for her age level. He thought she was a pest so he hired people to watch over her, only to be told that she did nothing when they were there. He stopped hiring people and just let her be, only after setting JARVIS up.
Tony then lost what little interest he had in her.
"Thank you JARVIS." sleep was taking over him now.
"Your welcome sir." was the last thing Tony Stark heard before he was lost to the word of sleep.
