WARNING: I REVAMPED THE LAST CHAPTER. IF YOU READ THIS WITHOUT RE-READING THE LAST CHAPTER, IT WON'T MAKE ANY SENSE!

Now, this is a very emotional chapter. I almost got a little teary writing it. I hope you like it. Ally lets her feelings out more in this chapter. Also thank you to my amazing reviewers. Love you all! Now enjoy!

I don't own Tony or the Avengers which is very sad.

Previously...

They just left me standing there, alone.


Waiting, waiting for either the news you want to hear or the news you are dreading, is the worst moments one can experience. You hope for the best, but expect the worst. Every time you see a doctor come towards you, whether they come to talk to you or not, you have this sinking feeling that never goes away. This is how I feel as I wait outside Tony's room. Falling through a never ending pit of despair. I had been waiting here outside Tony's room for the past 24 hours and the feeling of loss from when my parents died in a fire returned as I fought not to cry at the sight through the window into Tony's room. He looks peaceful, even though he has numerous tubes running in and out of his body, the little light of hope in the middle of his chest glowing brighter than ever. He has the same look on his face that my parents did. A blank, yet peaceful look. It was at this moment that I decided to be better to Tony. All he's ever done is be a great friend to me, and all I've been is a ginormous bitch. If he makes it, I will change. For Tony.

"Ally?" I heard a sorrowful voice. I turned to see Jex, watery eyed and clinging to Clint, who had his arms around her. We stared at each other for a few moments until she let go of Clint and flung her arms around me. I hugged her back crying all over again. I could feel her tears soaking my uniform, but I didn't care, I was doing the same thing to her uniform. We stayed that way for what felt like hours, just letting the tears flow, never stopping.

"I never got to tell him that he's my brother," Jex stuttered through the tears.

"I never got to tell him that I love him," I whispered, pulling away from her, looking at my hands that were crossed in my lap.

"You love him?"

"More than you know."

"I'm glad that Tony has someone like you to love him."

We both smiled weakly at each other as a SHIELD agent walked up to us. Holding a small piece of paper. He handed it to me with a serious look on his face. I took the note from his grasp and watched him walk away before opening it.

Agent Vega,

I know that Mr Stark is in a critical condition however, that issue I discussed with you about the extra-terrestrial disturbances has become direr. I need your team to go investigate. I know that this is a difficult time for you, but this is important. Please show this to Agent Luci and Agent Barton if possible.

Director Fury.

I finished reading the note, however I remained still afterwards. Once I had composed myself, I handed the note to Jex silently. As she read further into the note, I could see her face becoming more and more serious. I could tell that she was just as worried as I am.

"Clint and I will go," she said softly.

"What?"

"If Tony wakes up, better he see someone he loves, someone he has known for a while," she said, obviously holding back tears.

"But you are his sister, you need to be here for him."

"Yes, but he doesn't know that, does he? He would be happier if he woke up to see your face."

"Just be careful. When emotions come into a mission, it doesn't end well. Please be careful," I pleaded.

"Don't worry, Clint will be there to keep me in check."

She smiled at me as I nodded at her, tears starting to flow again. After one last hug, Jex and Clint walked away to carry on with the mission while I stayed with Tony. All of the crying made me sleepy, which was not what I wanted. I wanted to remain awake for Tony. But my eyes ended up betraying me by drooping. My vision blurs until all I see is black.

My eyes fluttered open to see a doctor lightly shaking me awake. He gestured to the door leading into Tony's room. I hurried over to the door and twisted the handle. The smell of antiseptic was the first thing to hit me as I walked into the room. I pulled a chair beside the bed and sat down. I gently took Tony's hand in mine, laying my head on our hands. They say that when people are in a coma state, they can hear you. Would that be the same for Tony? It's worth a try right?

"Tony, I know I probably sound like a lunatic right now, talking to an unconscious man. However, they say that unconscious people in a coma state can still hear things through a coma. So, maybe if I talk to you, you will come back to me. I can't lose you Tony. It's like losing my parents all over again. You mean the world to me, please don't leave me. I remember the first time we met. Fury was angry with you and sent me to straighten you out. There wasn't much straightening. You turned on the charm and what can I say, I couldn't help but be infatuated with your sarcasm and joking personality. I love the little moments of banter we have every day, it makes life interesting. I love the fire in you that has the passion to fight for what you believe in. I love that you never give up. I love your silly little smile and the warmth that you bring into my life. More than anything, I just love you, so much. Please don't leave me. I need you here with me. Please, please wake up," I pleaded through tears.

Please Tony, wake up. I hate having this sinking feeling all over again. I can't believe it's taken me this long to figure out how exactly I feel about him. I love him. As crazy as I am, I love Tony Stark.

Just as I was drifting to sleep, again, something startling happened and my heart skipped a beat.


Ooooooh, what is this mystery something that happened? I love this chapter! haha

Please review.

XOXO
