Hello, everyone! So I thought to update another chapter. It took me a great time to think about Pepper's dare for Drake but I really couldn't come up with something good and I am not happy about it. But I think this could work. And then Thanks to all the reviewers- someone, silverpedals, Gomezalexa, who is my seat partner at school, Runsha who is one of my closest friend, Dreamygirl, Faithful reader and others . So here I begin.
I don't own Ironman Armored Adventures.
Chapter4- Being Jealous.
Pepper smiled devilishly and said, "You Drake Thomson I want you to put a good amount of ice in your pants and enjoy it. Hey, why not accompany it with a dance?"
Everyone bursted with laughter looking at Drake's face and his stupid dance moves.
After all this drama, the trio headed outside the house, finally the party was over. "I brought my mom's car. Bye Tony. Um…Pepper do you want a lift?" Rhodey asked but to be honest he knew Pepper would never go with him if there was a choice and the other option will be Tony but he's her friend, more like her brother it was his duty to ask.
"Um…No it's fine Rhodey. Tony will." Pepper answered.
"You know what, I knew the answer already." Rhodey ended with a smirk and left to his home. "Shall we?" Tony asked. "Of course." Pepper smiled and they also left in the black SUV.AT SCHOOL, THE OTHER DAY
"Hey what's up" Rhodey called as he saw Pepper coming to her locker.
"Hey Rhodey!" Pepper greeted.
Then Tony came and was about to greet them both, when a voice called out from behind Pepper, "PEPPER!" And she turned to look for its source.
It was Samuel Swan, the cutest guy of the grade. (yeah yeah not more that Tony)
"Hey Samuel" Pepper said
"Hi. I just wanted to ask if you're free this Saturday." Samuel asked.
"Yeah." Pepper said. Samuel was with her in Chemistry class.
"Good! Actually I and my some friends are having an indoor rifle shooting competition sorta, so we need 4 teams. Like Rachael and Isaac, Deborah and Jake, Amanda and Adam so you can join with me Samuel and Pepper" He ended. Now that got Tony's attention and he moved a little forward to listen carefully.
"Yeah why not, it'll be fun. So, you're gonna pick me up?" Pepper asked.
"Oh shit! I can't, I've to pick Amanda and Adam also. I'm sorry, I hope you understand Pep!" Samuel said with a frown.
"Ok, till now it was quite fine, but now it's not. I think it is really I, who can call her that and if you're dumber than I think you are, let me clarify, by 'that' I mean Pep" Tony said trying to be very calm because at the moment he was boiling with anger.
"Whoa! Tony what was that? Well, hey! Tony can drop me. Can't you Tony" Pepper said turning to his direction.
Tony raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, Tony you are going on a date with Whitney so why not you just drop me at the shooting range?" Pepper asked.
Can Tony say no to Pepper? So his reply was "Yeah sure, why not Pep you are my friend" Exerting great deal of force on friend, which Pepper surely noticed. No doubt, Tony really wanted to have one more word before 'friend' and yes it starts with G.
The days of the following weak went peacefully, well, not peacefully if you're a part of Team Ironman. But it is to mean that nothing weird happened between Tony and Pepper.
Till it was Saturday.
SATURDAY
Tony waited with his other SUV which was dark blue in colour when Pepper came out. She was wearing a black T-shirt with brown knee length shorts.
"Hi" Tony said.
"Hey" Pepper said.
It was an awkward moment.
"Um… Pep I have to pick Whitney on the way so do you have any problem?" Tony said. Actually his idea was to jealous Pepper.
"Why would I have any problem?" Pepper said like she really didn't care.
She then opened the door of the backseat door (I don't know if SUVs have backseats? Maybe they don't, I don't know but this one has a backseat) and was about sit when Tony interrupted and said "Really Pepper are you going to sit at the back"
"Um…" Pepper tried to say something.
"I am not going to act like driver while you are sitting at back and I am in front driving." Tony said casually.
"Well, I don't want your girlfriend to try to taunt me or kick my ass or even try to murder me brutally, just because I sat beside you." Pepper said.
"Pepper just screw up and sit beside me!" Tony said.
"Fine…" Pepper said with a sigh and opened the front door and sat.
There was again an awkward silence which Tony broke and asked, "So you are going out with Samuel?"
Like he doesn't know Pepper thought and answered "Yes."
Even Tony thought the same thing and asked another question, "Is it a date?"
"Um…Not exactly coz there are other people also coming, but everyone is in pair so you can call it one if you really want to place it like that." Pepper said.
He then again raised a question, "Do you know any of them I mean really know them?"
"No, not exactly but…" Pepper was cut by Tony when he said
"O good! So they are somewhat like strangers for you." Tony said "Date with a stranger hmm…" He ended sarcastically.
Why in the world is he acting like this? Pepper thought.
"So what exactly are you going to do there?" He asked.
"I am not sure; maybe shoot a bullet at the right place?" Pepper said.
And I would be so glad if the right place will be Samuel's head Tony thought.
"Wow! Pepper so basically, you are going out with some strangers and don't know what you are going to do. Good! I am so very proud of you." Tony said.
Now Pepper was furious, "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM STARK?" She screamed.
"What is my problem? What is the problem with your mind Pep? What do you think you are doing?" Tony asked, frustrated.
"I know better than anyone about what I am doing. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ARE YOU BEING LIKE THIS?" Pepper shouted at him. She was very angry.
"Pep don't shout at me." Tony said sternly. Now Pepper was on the verge of falling a couple of tears.
They reached Whitney's place, she was standing there, waiting. Usually, Tony would get out of his car and open the door for Whitney to sit, this was not so this time. She leaned to see what the matter was and noticed that Pepper was sitting on, what she considered as her seat. She then noticed Tony and Pepper were having some kind of argument. She tapped her feet and waited some more but after getting no response she herself opened the back door and sat.
Whitney was greeted by Tony like this, "Whitney, no one in this world take such a long time to enter a damn car!" he said.
"Okay, I understand now, you are doing this to make me jealous because you yourself are feeling jealous about me and Samuel going out, right! This was the only reason you picked her up with me. FINE I get it now!" Pepper said.
Whitney was watching them both, aghast.
"No I am not jealous!" Tony said. He felt guilty for he was caught.
"YES YOU ARE" she screamed.
"NO I AM NOT." He shouted back.
"YES!" she screamed again.
"NO NO NO NO. HOW MANY TIMES SHOULD I TELL YOU, NO!" Tony was shouting really hard.
"You'll shout at me like this Tony? Like this?" Pepper said, tears were now rolling out of her eyes continuously.
Tony regretted his behavior and said, "Look, I am sorry Pep, I…I never meant it that way…"
"OH REALLY?" Pepper said wiping her tears.
"No, Pepper I am really sorry but why are you going out with him?" Tony asked.
"Because he asked me." Pepper said.
"So, it means that if anyone asks you to jump into a well, you'll jump?" Tony said.
"Of course not!" Pepper answered.
"But you just said it." Tony shot back.
"I said yes because he is my friend" Pepper answered.
"So it means you are leaving a two years strong breakless friendship on a two day stupid friendship." Tony said frustrated.
"Who said I am leaving? Why are you exaggerating this Tony?" Pepper asked.
"I'm not." Tony answered.
"Yes, you are. Listen, I would have never gone with him if you have asked me out before him and I would definitely come back if there is a mission, if that is the thing you are worrying about." Pepper said.
"I am not worrying about any mission Pepper I am worrying about you." Tony said.
"Okay now will anyone tell me what's going on?" Whitney asked from behind but was given no response.
They were now quite near the shooting range. "I still don't get why you are going with him" Tony said with a sigh.
"God Tony why don't you understand? Are you that jealous?" Pepper said.
"No I am not." Tony assured.
"OK, fine, just tell me why are you going out with her?" Pepper said while pointing at Whitney.
"Potts, you jerk, you you ass…" Whitney was cut down by Tony.
"SHUT UP! Whitney, we're trying to solve something here, just shut your hole for a while. Where were we?" Tony said angrily.
"I was just asking why you are going out with Whiney Stane?" Pepper said.
"Because she is my…um… my girlfriend" Tony said feeling sick, he could do anything to get rid of Whitney now.
"So as Whitney is your girlfriend just think Samuel is my boyfriend and with this you go with your so called girlfriend and I will go to my so called boyfriend." With these words Pepper got out of the car for they had reached their destination and kicked the door of the car.
There she saw Samuel waiting for her.
I will continue this. I didn't like this chapter a lot because of a lot of projects of school and other stuff made me busy and I got less time to think so I couldn't come up with something good. Maybe I will update it on the coming Saturday or Sunday.
And please review me. I would be really happy if you write anything or point out my mistakes.
Till then take care
WhitePeacock.
