Chapter Two:
"Do you see Stark?" Jack whispered in Maggie's ear.
"No, do you?" she whispered back. They were at a party banquet for Tony Stark. He should be here.
"Nah, maybe he's not coming," Jack whispered back. As if on cue, Tony Stark walked into the building, surrounded by paparazzi, security guards, and of course, women.
"How does Boss expect us to do this??" Maggie whisper-hissed.
"Just stick to the plan," Jack said. They were at the bar in the building, sipping on martinis. Jack quietly handed Maggie a small chip that she placed in the inside of her ear.
"This will be our communication devise. I can hear you speak, and you can hear me. Understand?" he asked.
"I guess," Maggie said.
"Okay," he replied. Then, he gently placed his hands on Maggie's shoulders and said with a fatherly tone, "If anything goes wrong, I'll come okay?"
"Okay, deal," she replied with a small smile. She thought of Jack more as a father, than a co-worker. They did every mission together and just had a father-daughter bond. Plus, Jack was a lot older than Maggie.
"Stark's here and he's coming our way. We have to make this seem real," Jack said, not taking his eyes off the approaching billionaire.
"Is he coming our way or just to the bar?" Maggie asked, afraid to turn around.
"Just to the bar. Virginia Potts is following him."
"Anyone else?" Maggie asked, quickly adding more lip gloss and fluffing her fake-brown hair.
"No, it seems she stopped following him. Shhh, he's about to sit right next to us," Jack whispered, widening his eyes. He smiled though and murmured, "This couldn't have gone better."
Maggie smiled as well, but quickly frowned when they were about to start their 'break up'.
"Well, maybe you could have told me that in the first place!" Maggie growled, loudly. Tony slightly cocked his head in their direction and listened, casually.
"I couldn't!" Jack said.
"Oh, you couldn't now? Then why did you tell James and Frank? Why was I the last to know!?" Maggie raised her voice slightly.
"Jessie, it doesn't matter!" Jack couldn't help but smile when Tony seemed even more interested now.
"Doesn't matter? Doesn't matter?! How could you even say that?"
"Like this: It doesn't matter!" he replied, grabbing Maggie's hand.
"Don't touch me!" Maggie growled, snapping her hand away from him. "It's so over!" She was about to leave, but Jack put a hand on her shoulder and kept her in place. Tony was fully turned now.
"Wait honey! I'm sorry!" Jack protested, trying to keep from laughing.
"You're apologizes mean nothing! You're such a loser!" Maggie said, she smiled slightly, but immediately frowned again.
"I'm not a loser!" Jack protested.
"Hmm. You're right," she paused, apparently thinking. She grabbed her half-full martini and spilled it all over Jack's head. "Now, you're a loser!" She turned on heel and walked away from the bar. Leaving Jack and Tony alone.
"Who was that?" Tony asked, staring after the young brunette that was in the middle of the dance floor, alone.
"My girlfri-- I mean my ex-girlfriend," Jack replied, trying his best to keep from smiling.
"Really?" Tony sounded utterly surprised. That reaction didn't shock Jack because of the obvious age difference between the two.
"Yeah, but I'm glad it ended. She doesn't deserve me," Jack hung his head and acting terribly solemn.
"Don't be too hard on yourself. Got to go." Tony said, downing his Scotch and fading away in the mob of people.
"This is too easy," Jack murmured, seeing Tony offer to dance with Maggie. She eagerly accepted and then, they disappeared from sight.
Jack watched them dance for a little while and listening to their conversation. He tried to give Maggie advice, but whenever he talked, he would see her cringe. I wasn't talking that loud! Jack thought to himself, but he decided to lower his tone, especially because he was on a mission.
His phone started to ring and he took it out of his pocket. On the screen it said, Pete.
"Pete's calling," Jack murmured, clicking open his phone. He took the earpiece out of his ear so that Maggie wouldn't be bothered, and answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Jack. You and Maggie need to leave. Now," Pete's urgent voice whispered.
"Why?" Jack asked, looking at Maggie and Tony continuing to dance. Maggie shot a look across the floor at me, but looked back at Tony a second later.
"Because, it seems that we are not the only ones that are out to get Stark."
"Really?"
"Yeah, and they now know what we're doing, and they are trying to stop us, well I mean, they're trying to stop you."
"Hmm. So there is another group of people that are trying to kill Maggie and I, and Stark?"
"Correct, but for now, you need to get out of there!" the voice said urgently.
"Okay, okay." He shut his phone and put the earpiece back in.
"Maggie we gotta go. Now," Jack raised his voice, seeing a mysterious lady walk near them and stared at them.
"Ow!" I heard her screech and she rubbed her ear
"Get away from him now!" Jack said urgently.
"Yeah, something just came up. I have to go, but it was nice talking with you! Oh can I have your number?" Jack heard her ask. They sat there for a moment and exchanged numbers.
Jack saw Maggie dart out of the building and he followed her reluctantly. He saw that lady walk up to Stark and ask him to dance. Of course, he accepted.
"I guess this isn't as easy as I thought," Jack murmured as he took one last look at the billionaire and his dancing partner.
Hope you liked it! Please review!
