Pepper hid a smirk as she watched the scene before her.

Tony Stark, CEO of Stark Industries, Iron Man and newly appointed father, was being reprimanded by a 12 year old boy. Kagome's tutor Ken to be exact.

It had been almost three months since Kagome arrived, and while things were still awkward, they were actually falling into place. And seeing Tony acting all fatherly, it was actually sweet to see that side of him. Even if he sometimes went overboard and left Kagome and herself exasperated.

Like now for instance, Kagome was correcting a mistake he had made, leaving Tony huffing that the brat had cheated.

Another thing that had surprised her, was how fast Kagome was actually learning. Soon enough the sessions with Ken were becoming shorter and shorter, as well as fewer and fewer.

Tony bragged that it was his genius flowing through Kagome.

That was somewhat hindered when they asked her how she was doing in her education, only to learn that she was failing a few classes. Pretty much the ones Tony himself took pride on.

Maths and sciences.

When asked, all Kagome said was that she missed a year of school due to personal issues. Reminding Tony why Kagome was there. Or his lack of knowledge of why she was there.


AN: Ah, bonding time. Well, I managed to bring back my back log up for this one, though I'm stuck for Unexpected. :| Other than that; read, enjoy, and review!
