"Pepper!"
"No, just don't talk to me!" Pepper yelled over her shoulder as she made her way to the door, snatching her Blackberry off the couch in the way.
"Peps, what's wrong?" Tony stark objected as he followed his irate girlfriend/employee/general-manager-of-his-life across his living room.
"What's wrong?" She shrieked, spinning back around and nearly causing him to run into her. "Three days ago you flew off in that damn suit, and since then not a single phone call, email, not even a text! I was starting to think you were dead and now you just show up with a smile and not a scratch on you, expecting me to-to-"
She cut herself off and turned, running away, slamming the door behind her.
Tony stood there bewildered. Three days? It hadn't been three days, it was barely five minutes since he flew away from Stark Tower. The distress signal JARVIS had picked up had disappeared and he had come back immediately. What was going on?
AN: The plot bunnies were bugging me with this little . . . ficlet I guess. But now I'm sorta stuck on it. If you have any ideas on what should happen next leave a review and tell me! I'd really appreciate it! :)
