First things first, thank you all for the wonderful reviews! You guys have actually mentioned things to me that I have planned out for later chapters! I wasn't too sure if this story was going to turn out the way I wanted, but with reviews like this, I must be doing something right!

Much love to you readers for your reviews and critics!

*Age 9*

Tony knows something is wrong, he can feel it, almost like he's forgetting something. He checks the clock hanging on the wall in his lab, 3:15 in the afternoon, what could he possible be forgetting? He checks a calendar next, it's Thursday, nothing special about it, just another Thursday. Tony taps his foot in desperation, what on earth is he forgetting? This is going to eat at him until he figures out exactly what's wrong. Then it hits him, it must be Pepper's birthday! Tony shakes his head. "Pepper's birthday was last month."

Tony lays his forgotten project down on the lab table as he walks up the steps and into the living room. "If it's not Pepper's birthday, when what is it? Oh God it's Margo's birthday! How could I possibly forget my own child's birthday!" Tony frantically runs around the house, grabbing his keys, phone, and wallet. Before another thought crosses his mind. "No...Margo's birthday is in November." He taps his foot again, speaking of Margo where is she?

Tony heads to the girl's room, figuring she's been sitting in there since she got home from school. Tony quietly knocks on the door. "Margo, Princess, you in there?" There's no answer and Tony pushes the door open, finding no Margo inside. If she isn't in her room, maybe she is in the kitchen. Bounding back down the steps he walks into the kitchen, searching every nook and cranny for his daughter. Nope, she isn't in there either. In a last attempt to find his child WITHOUT calling for help, he searches under the couch. Sure there were a few dust bunnies under it, but definitely no Margo.

"JARVIS, where's Margo? Did Pepper take her to the park or something?"

"No, Sir. Miss Margo's still at school." The AI replies.

Tony's eyes narrow. "Why is she still at school?" And before the AI can reply he panics. "It's my day to pick her up from school, isn't it?"

"Yes, Sir. Miss Pepper is picking her up tomorrow."

Tony runs as fast as humanly possible to his car, he KNEW he was forgetting something, and all be damned if it wasn't the most important thing in the world to forget. He glances at his phone, 3:55 p.m., if he speeds (like REALLY REALLY speeds) he can make it to the Elementary school by 4:05 (not that getting there now is going to make him look like any less of a jerk). What kind of father forgets to pick his daughter up from school? In his defense it's been a rather long day and all he really wants to do is sleep for the next twenty-four hours.

By the time Tony makes it to Margo's Elementary school it's 4:07 (a cop stopped him on the way there for speeding) and he sees the little girl sitting out front on a bench all by herself. Tony stops the car and smiles at Margo as she walks up to the car. "Princess, how was school?"

Margo doesn't utter a single word as she places her school bag in the front seat as she hops in the back. As soon as the door slams shut Tony peels out of the parking lot as fast as he can.

"Princess," Tony tries again, wondering just how mad Margo is at him. "Daddy's sorry he forgot you at school."

The only response Tony gets is a grunt from the girl, indicating she'd at least heard him. Upon hearing the grunt Tony sighs, that grunt means that Margo will ignore him until tomorrow morning, that's always what that grunt means.

If Tony was completely honest with himself (which is isn't very often), Margo has a right to be angry at him, after all this isn't the first time something like this has happened. Sure, he's always late picking her up from school, but he's never been THIS late before. He needs to start having JARVIS remind him of these things.

Upon hearing the car door slam again Tony sighs, this was definitely one of the worst things to forget.
