Hello again! Thanks to everyone who reviewed and a special thanks to Arrows the Wolf, fantasia-49, and Tola101; who all reviewed more than once! You guys rock! Also one correction: Maya's last name is now Hansen not Hanson. Enjoy!
Tony gasped, "Your right! Gotta go!" Then he hung up the phone and sprinted out the door back to a waiting Pepper and Maya. When Tony got back to the table the girls were eerily quiet. Tony could tell that something had occurred but he couldn't figure out what. "Okay what happened?"
"Nothing happened," Pepper said quietly still staring oddly at Maya as if seeing her for the first time.
Maya laughed. "Silly Tony Bear! We never talked about you!"
Pepper narrowed her eyes. "Don't call my man Tony Bear."
"Oh he doesn't mind! It's just a joke!" Maya took another sip of coffee. "Anyways I did have that new project I was supposed to show you. Take a gander at this." She handed Tony the folders. "Call me if you have any questions."
"Sure thing," Tony said looking through the folder. To his amazement some of the drawings and plans looked really cool.
"Well I gotta run. See you later Tony Bear and it was so nice meeting you Piper!" Maya exclaimed smiling innocently.
"It's Pepper," Pepper said through gritted teeth.
"Whatever!" Maya giggled before rushing out the door and blowing Tony a kiss. "Until next time Tony Bear!"
After Maya had gone Tony put the folder on the table for Pepper to see. "These projects by the USDA look really interesting! Look at this one— it's a nano-bot druid two thousand! That's the most advanced nano-bot in the world!"
Pepper blinked. "You—you're not seriously thinking of calling her about these, are you?"
"Why not Pep? These are so cool!" Tony replied looking at the folder. Then he looked up. "Wait are you uncomfortable with me calling my ex-girlfriend?"
Laughing awkwardly Pepper said, "No! I just think that you have other more important projects to look at." She pulled the folder away and stared into his eyes so he would know exactly what she was talking about.
Tony smiled. "Come on Pepper. Let's get out of this suffocating coffee shop and head up to the penthouse above the Stark building."
So the couple walked back the way they came to the stark building and headed for the elevator to go up. After the elevator doors closed Tony pulled Pepper into his arms and began kissing her. They didn't break apart until the doors opened at the top floor. "Welcome back Mr. Stark and Miss Potts." Came Jarvis' voice.
Tony stepped out of the elevator first and told Jarvis, "Miss Potts and I are engaged!"
"Congratulations to you both," Jarvis said in his computerized British accent.
"Thank you Jarvis!" Pepper said pulling Tony back in for a kiss that he gratefully returned.
"Mr. Stark my sources tell me that you missed all your appointments today," Jarvis informed them seeming unaware that the couple was too busy kissing to notice.
They moved to the couch and watched (or tired to watch) tv. "Let's move this party elsewhere." Pepper whispered.
"Mmhmm," Tony muttered as he and Pepper went kissing all the way into the bed room.
A few hours later…
Tony, while wearing his bath robe, was trying to cook. "I'm much better at building things than making dinner Pep."
Pepper was wearing his white shirt and sitting at the counter said, "Smells fine to me."
"Ah but that's because you haven't tried it yet," Tony smirked. "I think we might have to order out from now on."
Laughing Pepper said, "I can cook thank you very much!"
"Thank god for that! You can cook breakfast tomorrow morning." They both laughed.
"Mr. Stark there is a Miss Maya Hansen here to see you sir. She says it's urgent." Jarvis interrupted the couple.
Tony looked down at his attire and then at Pepper's. "Um Jarvis, Miss Potts and I aren't dressed properly for company."
"Miss Hansen has over ridden my system and is riding up the elevator to see you," Jarvis informed them.
"Can she do that?" Tony asked feeling shocked.
"She just did sir."
"We have to change—!" Pepper had begun to speak but then suddenly the elevator doors opened.
"Where are you Tony Bear?"
