G: Gullible
"California Girls" –Katy Perry-
"Are too!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Yes you are."
"No. I'm. Not."
"Potts, yes you are." Tony argued with a laugh.
"I am not gullible." Pepper defended.
"Need I remind you about the time I said the baby was crying and you jumped awake looking around for one. Or how about the time I convinced you leprechauns stole my gold watch."
"They're crafty bastards." Pepper murmured.
"Or when I told you I was gay."
"Well, it's not that far of a stretch nowadays." She said.
"How about the time with the Wii?" Tony asked an eyebrow raised.
"Don't go there Stark." Pepper said glaring him hard enough to give him third degree burns.
Tony just grinned. "I still have some of those lovely photos too." Pepper's cheeks flamed a bright red instantly. "Don't worry Potts," Tony whispered into her ear. "That memory is for me and me alone." He said with seductively before walking away with a wink.

Pepper was inside the mansion, in her office, typing up some reports with the AC on full blast. It was a scorching hot mid-July day. A heat wave had hit Malibu and knocked out most of the city's power, but of course her boss was one of the few who actually had power and she was extremely grateful at the moment that she worked for someone with enough money to have a lot of backup generators. There was so much work to be done and she was already melting in her clothes so much that she'd had to shed most of what she was wearing, sans white dress.
Tony wasn't complaining about it, of course, because it was the shortest and most revealing dress she owned but it was the only clean one she had. It stopped mid-thigh and scooped down to expose more cleavage than she wanted to expose (which was none and this revealed a lot) to her very visually stimulated boss. Speak of the devil.
Tony came bounding into her office in nothing but a pair of shorts with cow bells around his neck. "What in the name of Sam hell are you wearing?"
"Uh, shorts." He replied looking down to his shorts as if the answer was obvious.
"But why do you have cow bells around your neck?" She questioned. She noticed Tony's eyes that began to wander over her chest and paused. She rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers at her boss.
"Eyes up here."
"You should wear that more often. It's very…sexy." He purred with a grin.
"Oh shut up. It was the only thing I had left."
"Well, you could have come with nothing on. I wouldn't have stopped you." He grinned.
"Tony, why do you have cow bells around your neck?"
"Oh yeah! It helps you get a better score when you actually dress like the song you're dancing to." Tony said with a sparkle in his eye and a wide smile.
"That's bull." Pepper scoffed with a roll of her eyes.
"Say that to my perfect score." Tony said smugly with a proud grin.
"Whatever." Pepper mumbled with a roll of her eyes.
"Suit yourself. I have to go change now so I can win Cotton Eye Joe." Tony said taking another healthy look at Pepper's exposed legs and breasts before he took off to his room.

TWO WEEKS LATER
Pepper grabbed her small bag and dart a look around before sneaking down to Tony's workshop. Tony was supposed to be gone and at lunch with Rhodey, but she still looked around just to be sure. Once she gained entrance into the workshop she went into the bathroom with a dress on and walked out in hot rod red stilettos and a matching bikini.
"JARVIS, can you turn on Mr. Stark's Wii please."
"Certainly."
Pepper grabbed a Wii remote and strapped it onto her wrist securely. She scrolled through the songs until she found the one she had pre chosen. She had wanted to see if Tony's claim that dressing for the song actually helped. Her chosen song, California Girls, because it was pretty close to home. She was after all, a California girl. As the song played Pepper sang along second naturedly while focusing on the dance.
"I know a place. Where the grass is really greener. Warm, wet, and wild. There must be something in the water. Sippin' gin and juice, laying underneath the palm trees, undone. The boys break their necks, trying to creep a little sneak peek at us. You can travel the world, but nothing comes close to the Golden Coast, once you party with us, you'll be falling in love. Oooohh oh ooooh. California Girls we're unforgettable, Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top. Sun kissed skin so hot we'll melt your popsicle. Oooooh oh ooooh. California girls we're undeniable. Fine, fresh, fierce, we got it on lock. West coast represent now put your hands up. Ooooh oh ooooh. Sex, on the beach. We got sand in our stilettos. We freak in my jeep. Snoop doggy dogg on the stereo oh oh. You can travel the world, but nothing comes close to the Golden Coast. Once you party with us, you'll be falling in love. Ooooh oh oooooh. California girls we're unforgettable. Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top. Sun kissed skin so hot we'll melt your popsicle. Ooooh oh ooooh. California girls we're undeniable. Fine, fresh, fierce we got in on lock. West Coast represent now put your hands up. Ooooh oh ooooh. California, California girls. California, California girls."
As Pepper did the final pose she heard clapping from behind and jumped with a gasp. She wheeled around and there sitting precariously perched on his desk was Tony Stark himself. "Very sexy Potts, I'm digging that color. You should wear this more often. I think I'll change the dress code because that just became my new fantasy." He said with a grin.
Pepper's cheeks flamed red and she tried to excuse herself to preserve what little bit of dignity she had left.
"I can't believe you actually fell for that, not that I'm complaining. The view is absolutely spectacular." He said unabashedly looking her up and down.
"Fell for…" She trailed off as Tony raised an eyebrow and continued to look her over. She blushed again and instead questioned, "Why are you here?"
"Uh, I live here. And I forgot my phone on my desk so I came back to get it and when I came down here I found just the single sexiest thing I've ever seen anyone do." He said again with a smile but Pepper knew her boss far too well to fall for that playboy smile even if he was changed.
"I'm going to get back upstairs; I have some work that needs to be done after I change." She said as she began to walk over to the bathroom. Tony stopped her and began to move very close to her. To anyone else in the room it would appear that Tony was moving in for the kill. Their foreheads were pressed together and his lips were inches from her as their noses were pressed together.
"You can work on me Ms. Potts."
"What are you doing Mr. Stark?"
"I call it, very close talking." He said softly.
"Could you stop?" She asked softly as her heart pounded, her mind too frozen to form complex sentences. The effects of Tony Stark. He pressed his lips together and she could feel them just above her upper lip.
"Mmmm." He answered in a tone that said maybe. After what seemed like a lifetime, Tony moved away and could tell he had left his assistant very flustered and for a brief second he regretted not just kissing her Pepper blinked her eyes and recovered quickly before retreating into the bathroom.
"So gullible." Tony said with a chuckle.
