Pepper had gone to her room and was currently lying down on the couch. She wondered how she would tell Tony. She wasn't even sure if Tony even wanted to be a father or not. In this 8 year relationship, Tony had never talked to her or expressed any wish of having children. What if he didn't want a kid? Pepper felt her eyes fill up with tears. She had gone to Ray because she wanted to hear her opinion on this. But she stopped every time she wanted to bring up the topic. She would think I'm crazy.

Ray had gone back to the garage and had been working on her virtual screens. Both the other scientists of the lab, Bruce and Tony weren't there. She wondered where they could be.

Tony was genuinely worried ever since he say both his girls having some secret talk. He knew from Pepper's face that she was very nervous about something. 'Girl Stuff?' Seriously? he thought. That was the best Ray could comeup with. He raised her up. He knew very well that she was lying! He couldn't help but spy. He had talked about it with Bruce. "Maybe it really is some girl stuff that they don't want to tell you." he had said. Tony had rolled his eyes. "Bruce, trust me, I can alwayy tell when they are hiding something." he had insisted. Now he had made Bruce a part of his spying tour in his sister's room.

"Are you sure that we should do this, Tony?" Bruce asked.

"Yes." he said. "Ray is a master of hiding stuff. Trust me, I won't be shocked if a huge snake or something pops out from somewhere!"

Bruce only smiled. He was already uncomfortable about the fact that he had walked into a girl's room without her permission.

Tony looked at every nook and corner of the room. Her wardrobe, drawers, under the bed and every other place he could think of while Bruce stood there awkwardly. Be found nothing. "I can't see anything!" he exclaimed.

"Maybe it's just your imagination, Tony." Bruce said. He was actually glad that Tony hadn't found out anything embarrassing.

Tony wasn't satisfied but he modded anyways. He was about to walk out when suddenly something struck him. "The bathroom!" he exclaimed. "They were standing near the bathroom when I saw them." he said walked towards it.

"Tony, I don't think its a good idea to walk in a girl's washroom." Bruce said. He prayed that Tony doesn't find anything.

"She's my sister, hulk-head!" Tony pointed out.

"Not mine..."

It was a few moments later when Bruce heard Tony exclaim, "What the fuck?!" Bruce walked in to find him holding a pregnancy test kit with toilet paper in his hand. His eyes went wide too. He didn't know what to say.

"What's going on?" Both Tony and Bruce jumped in shock. They turned around to find Steve standing behind on the washroom door. He was apparently passing by when he saw the two team mates in Ray's room ans walked in wanting to know what's going on.

"Jeez, cap, don't you freak us out like that!" Tony said gaining himself back from the shock.

"Sorry." he said before his eyes shifted to what Tony was holding. "What's that?"

"It's a pregnancy test kit." Tony said running his fingers through his hair. He looked worried and irritated. He hated the idea that his sister was having sex with some guy whom he didn't even know about!

"And it shows positive results." Bruce added.

Steve raised an eyebrow. "You think Ray is pregnant."

Tony looked away in frustration. She isn't getting away with this! he mentally swore while Bruce just gave Steve an unsure smile. Both of them knew that Tony was very over-protective for Ray. In that case, they knew Ray was going to be in trouble.

"What are you guys doing in my washroom?" Ray asked. She had kusty walked in her room only to find the three men including her brother in her washroom. They jumped in response. Ray noticed the pregnancy test kit in her brother's hand and guessed quite easily what they were thinking. She rolled her eyes and then looked up to them with a sly smile. "Alright, I'm going to ask this ones. Who amongst you is pregnant?" she eyed them carefully noting each of their expression. "Steve?"

"I didn't do anything!" the super soldier exclaimed as the rest stared at him. "I...I mean, that's not possible."

"Stop it, Ray!" Tony said in a rather serious tone. "What is this?"

"That's a pregnancy test kit." she teased.

"WHY IS IT IN YOUR WASHROOM?" he demanded the answer. "Is this what you and Pepper had been talking about?"

"Yes." she said faking guilt. "This isn't how we wanted you to know about this but since you have already found out, I have to tell you..." she added. Tony impatiently stated at her as he threw the kit back in the bin from where he had picked it up. "Congratulate me folks!" she said with a wide smile. "I'm about to become an aunt!"

Tony had hardly heard her as he was making up his mind to explain her. "Ray, listen, you have to understand that..." he stopped mid sentence. "What?" he was shocked. For ones he thought that he had misheard her. Both Steve and Bruce stared at him. "I...I...what are you talking about?"

Ray's smile grew wider. She though ffeli bad for Pepper. She was supposed to be the one to break the news to him. "This is Pepper's test, shell head!" she said as his eyes went wide.

"Really?"

She nodded with a wide grin on her face. "Oh my god!" he exclaimed attacking her with his hug, picked her up and swung her around smiling gayly all the time. Then he put her down before rushing out of her room.

"I haven't seen him so happy eversince Ultron." Bruce said feeling equally happy for his friend.

"Hmm..." Ray said before turning to them with a complete change in tone. "And how dare you search my room?!"
