Hey guys! Doing some updating tonight. I'll have to see what else I have to do, besides getting a bunch of other one-shot or otherwise ideas out there so I can build on them and stuff. So here we go.
Tess and Pepper arrived at the airport along with Pepper's dad and Tess' mom.
"Wow, Pepper, I loved visiting you in the big city! Your new life is so great. Your new boyfriend is a famous, genius billionaire inventor who's also Iron Man!" Tess said so no one but her and Pepper would hear.
"Tess, it's any other normal life of any other normal teenager," Pepper paused for a moment, "just with a few little differences here and there involving a metal man." Pepper said.
"Well, I had lots of fun with you and your friends this week, Pepper." Tess said sadly. It was hard to have to part again.
"It was fun having you. Thanks for visiting." Pepper sighed.
"Well, time to catch our plane, Tess. We have to go." Tess' mother explained.
"Bye Pattie." Tess said glumly.
"Please, it's Pepper now. I hate Pattie, and Trishie, and Pat, or whatever else." Pepper explained.
"Fine. Bye Pepper." Tess corrected.
"Thank you. Bye Tess," Pepper gave Tess a large hug. Tess picked up her bags and walked to security check with her mother. Pepper waved as she watched them disappear.
"Well, pumpkin, it's time for us to split too. Let's get home, okay?" Virgil said, patting his daughter on the back. Pepper nodded and started walking to catch a cab home.
After a ride home, Virgil went to work and Pepper went back to see Tony.
"Tony, I'm back from the airport." Pepper called into the armory. She found Tony working on fixing his exploded armor.
"Cool. Did they get to their flight okay?" Tony asked as he walked up to her and wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure." Pepper said.
"You know, you didn't have to be worried about me and Tess being a thing." Tony said after a short silence.
"What?" Pepper asked in confusion.
"I would've chose you over anyone in the world." Tony explained. Pepper smiled.
"You would?" Pepper asked. Tony nodded.
"Sure would. You're my girl now, right?" Tony said.
"Are we…you know, now?" Pepper asked.
"Only if you want it." Tony said with a smile.
"Of course I do."
"Then yes, we are." Pepper smiled and rested her head on his shoulder.
"Now, I love you, but I have to get back to working on the armor." Tony winked. Pepper giggled.
"Oh, I love you too."
And on that note, I will have to end this wonderfully fluffy epilogue for two reasons: one, it's my bedtime. Two: it seemed like a good place to stop for an epilogue. Review!
