Chapter 4: The Date part 1

DAY 2

A warm yellow shade streamed through the clear glass windows, beckoning Tony awake from his peaceful slumber. He lay in bed, propping up his head with his hands, for a few minutes just staring out at the clear, blue, sky thinking. A small smile appeared as he thought of Virg- Pepper, and he could have sworn the sun shone just a bit brighter as he thought of her. His smile grew into a grin a he thought of their date and how Pepper had easily dodged his kiss. He wouldn't give her enough time to react the next time around.

Tony sat up in bed and swung his feet over the side so he could look at the clock resting beside him on the mahogany nightstand. He was taken aback by the time the green LED's displayed. 8:02 am. He never woke up this early especially after staying up until one in the morning. But he especially never felt as well rested as he did now, unless he had slept for a minimum of twelve hours. He snatched his phone from the nightstand and scrolled through his contacts. He paused for a moment a he reached Pepper but decided he should call Rhodey first to plan to eat breakfast. He continued to scroll down and stopped at Rhodey before pressing 'call'. The phone rang five times before Rhodey finally answered and Tony could tell he had been asleep.

"Go for Rhodes." He called out through the phone eyes closed.

"Rhodey! Great you're up." Tony said enthusiastically.

"Tony?! Why would you wake me up? It's only...8! Why the hell are you up at 8?!"

"Uh I'm hungry, duh. So when are we eating?" Tony asked.

"You could have gone without me Tony." Rhodey said annoyed. Tony answered with silence and a grin. "Okay yeah I didn't mean that. You alone on the ship is not safe. I'll meet you in your room in an hour."

"We'll what am I supposed to do for an hour?" Tony asked.

"I don't know. Take a shower, watch a movie, or try getting dressed. I'll see you soon Tony." Rhodey said annoyed.

"Yeah bye." Tony replied hanging up. He sat holding his phone for a moment, staring at the ocean before deciding to shower and dress before texting Pepper.

Twenty minutes later Tony emerges from his bedroom showered and dressed in jeans and a Black Sabbath shirt sporting his black high tops. Ignoring the call from the liquor cabinet Tony plopped into the couch kicking his feet up onto the coffee table and crossed them. He withdrew his phone and looked briefly to the time displayed. 8:28. Deciding he had ample time, Tony spun the dial in the right corner of his phone with his thumb until he reached the messaging icon and tapped it open. He pressed on Pepper's name displayed at the top and smiled as he began to text her.

This is ur morning wakeup call from the greatest mind this world has ever seen :)

For two minutes Tony sat impatiently drumming his fingers onto his phone until it vibrated. He quickly opened the message an grinned.

Why the hell are you waking me up this early?! I went to bed late too because someone kept me up an I'm on break!

Just as Tony was about to reply, a knock resounded on his door and he looked questioningly at it. Tony quickly put his phone down and walked over to the door opening it to reveal Rhodey.

"Rhodey, what are you doing here?" Tony asked confused.

Rhodey rolled his eyes. "Of course you'd forget already. Breakfast, remember. You called me and some me up saying you we're hungry."

"Oh right yes. I'm famished. I just have to go grab my room key and then we can leave.

Tony walked into his room and quickly grabbed out his phone shooting Pepper a goodbye text.

Going 2 breakfast w/ Rhodey. Ttyl :)
-The Definition Of Sexy: Tony Stark-
3/23/2013 9:08

Tony only had to wait a moment for the reply to come and smiled.

Don't get sick on bacon. I need you looking nice tonight. :)
"You become what you believe. You are where you are today in your life based on everything you have believed."
3/23/2013 9:08am

"Are you coming?" Rhodey called out from the living room where he sat on a chair by the mini bar.

"Yeah! I found it." Tony called out sliding his phone into his back pocket and grabbed his room key from the nightstand.

XxxxxxxxxSpringBreakxxxxxxxX

Pepper didn't want to admit that every time she thought of her date with Tony a blush came to her cheeks, her heart sped up, and butterflies tumbled in her stomach. To admit that happened would have been to admit they had chemistry and Pepper refused to believe that she could be so attracted to someone without really knowing who they were. She didn't want to admit she had no control over her emotions that were quickly spiraling out of we grasp. She didn't believe in feeling such a connection to someone from a completely different world. He was born and raised a privileged child with Daddy's money and anything he wanted at his fingertips. She grew up as the middle child of three to a father who was an F.B.I. Special Agent in the Homicide division and a mother who ran a bakery. She grew up with just enough money to have a nice Christmas and live comfortably.

But a little voice in her heart kept whispering sweetly and softly, Tony. It was these thoughts that ran through Pepper's mind as she lay on her back in her bikini poolside tanning as her friends swam in the crowded pool. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail and swung over her shoulder, resting comfortably behind her. Dark shades shielded her eyes from the blinding noon sun. Her phone lay beside her on the chair calling to her to text Tony. She ignored the continuous call and repeated in her mind that she was there to have fun with her friends, not text Tony. Deciding that swimming with her friends would successfully take her mind off Tony; she sat up, removed her shades, and hid her phone underneath her towel. She silently crept up behind her friends whose backs were all to her.

A mischievous grin appeared on her face as she yelled, "Geronimo!", and jumped into the pool cannonball style successfully splashing her friends who squeaked and jumped in surprise at her voice.

For nearly an hour Pepper laughed, chased, raced, and played in the water with her friends with not so much as an iota of a thought of Tony; until they all got out of the pool and there was a message from him on her phone.

8pm meet me on the top deck of the Haven. Dress formal :) oh and if anyone gives you trouble just tell them ur meeting me and ur name is Pepper ;) can't wait 4 r date 2nite. :D
-The Definition Of Sexy: Tony Stark-
3/23/2013 1:23pm

A blush quickly spread to her cheeks and a small smile that Nelia took note of, "Who ya textin there Ginny?" She said with a grin.

Pepper jumped a little and cleared her throat set down her phone and locked it. "No one."

Nelia eyed her for a moment before a knowing grin spread on her face. "It's him isn't it?"

Pepper tried feigning innocence. "Him? Him who?" Nelia shot her a 'seriously' look and crossed her arms over her still wet chest. She gazed intently at Pepper until finally she broke. "Ok fine yes it was him. God, stop staring at me like that. I feel like you're going to steal my soul." Pepper said exasperated and unnerved. Nelia just smirked and began to dry off. She waited until Pepper had picked her phone back up and turned her body facing away from her friends. Nelia silently tip-toed up behind Pepper and attacked at the last second, successfully snatching the phone from Pepper's hands whom had immediately lunged after the phone. It was too late. Nelia had already begun to read the text aloud amongst the group.

"Hey guys, this is what Tony just texted Ginny. 8 pm. Meet me on the top deck of the Haven. Dress formal. Smiley face. Oh and if anyone gives you trouble just tell them you're meeting me and that your name is Pepper. Smiley face. Winky face. Can't wait for our date tonight. Big smile." Everyone's mouth was open in shock except for Pepper who had a mad blush on her cheeks.

"Whoa." Was all Michelle could say.

"Date?!" Marissa exclaimed.

"Pepper?" Nelia asked.

"He has terrible grammar." Michelle mused aloud. The two girls looked to Michelle and shot her a 'are you really going there' look.

Then as if they all shared a single mind spoke, "Explain!"

Pepper snatched her phone back from Nelia, her cheeks still a Mars shade of red and cleared her throat. "Can we change first?" She asked in a desperate attempt to prolong the impending conversation.

They all spoke with fervor, "No!"

Pepper sighed and set her towel on her chair and sat. Everyone else grabbed their own towel and set in on the chair adjacent to Pepper's, huddling together so they all fit on the same chair.

"Well…" Pepper began with a small smile. It took only ten minutes for Pepper to actually tell the story but with everyone's comments and questions it took twenty-five.

"You know I'm gonna start calling you Pepper too, right?" Nelia said with an amused grin.

"Me too." Michelle added with an equally amused grin.

"So when do we get to meet him?" Marissa asked.

"What?" Pepper asked in confusion.

"We're not going to let you go on a date with some guy you just met yesterday. I don't care if he is Tony Stark; we get to meet your dates before you leave. That's how we always do it whenever one of us has a date." Michelle said to which Nelia and Marissa agreed with a nod of their heads and an mmhhhmm.

"Uhhh." was all Pepper could respond with.

"Oh I know, instead of meeting up with him have him come to you and while you're finishing getting ready we can met him." Marissa chimed in.

"Oh yeah, great idea." Nelia agreed.

"Guys, slow down. First of all, I have nothing formal to wear!" Pepper practically screamed.

"Well I guess it's a good thing that I do." Marissa said with a smile. "We'll do your hair and make-up and everything." Marissa added with a sparkle in her eye as she envisioned what Pepper would look like.

Pepper knew there was nothing she could do to keep her friends from Tony and relented with a sigh. "Fine. But Nelia, no threatening him with your butter sock."

"Aww, why not?" She pouted disappointment in her eyes.

"Because he doesn't need to be emotionally scarred on the first date." Pepper answered.

Nelia made a disappointed clicking sound and answered begrudgingly, "Fine."

Pepper released a sigh of anxiousness and grabbed her phone to text Tony about the change in plans.

"Don't tell him we're gonna meet him. I want to see how he responds with no time for planned answers." Marissa said as Pepper texted.

"This is gonna be so fun." Nelia said rubbing her hands together with a devilish grin on her face.

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSpringBreakx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

His heart was beating faster than a speeding train. Every step he took became heavier and heavier as he neared Pepper's room. To him, time seemed to be moving in slow motion. He stood nervously in front of her door and fidgeted with his tie and brushed over the lapels of his suit jacket and ran a shaky hand through his hair. He looked himself over once and shakily knocked on the door.

Tony had dressed in a black suit with an Egyptian cotton red shirt and silky golden tie. He wore his black Armani shoes and gold Jaeger watch. His face was freshly shaved, hair combed off to the side. He was wearing his favorite cologne and combined with the smell of his aftershave he thought he smelled…delicious. What he'd never admit was the fact he had changed outfits twice and took nearly two hours to actually get ready. He felt so nervous and he couldn't explain why. Sure, it was technically the first date he had ever been on and he had absolutely no idea what to do, but he still couldn't explain why he felt the way he did. It might have also been the sense of dread he was feeling that made him nervous. He was afraid he'd do something wrong and ruin his chances at getting to see Pepper again.

The effect she had on him was un-paralleled to anything he had ever experienced. It both thrilled and scared him. The man standing in front of her door was someone that people would not have guessed was Tony Stark. Tony Stark was suave, confident, care-free, playful, inappropriate, always late, and calm. The person standing, waiting was insecure, nervous, freaked out, self-conscious, fashionably early, stressed, and panicked.

The door opened, only instead of revealing Pepper, he saw all three of her friends standing there and gulped.

"Ah, you must be Tony, come on in." The girl he recognized as Nelia said. "Pepper will be out in a minute." She said with a grin. Tony's face immediately became pale. They knew about his nickname for her. How did they know? He followed them inside and awkwardly stood beside the couch. It was a one room place with a single bathroom which is where he assumed Pepper was.

"I'm Marissa by the way; and this here is Michelle and Nelia." Marissa introduced gesturing to each person respectively who nodded in turn.

"Hi." Tony said awkwardly shifting.

"So what exactly are your motives for asking out Pepper?" Michelle asked.

"Actually, can I ask a question first?" Tony asked.

"You just did, moving on, answer the question." Nelia said eyeballing him with a sharp stare.

Tony shifted uncomfortable from her intense stare but mentally shook himself. He had to get a grip. He was Tony effing Stark, not some nervous school boy. He wasn't easily intimated and he adjusted his demeanor as such. "I'll answer yours after you answer mine. How do you know about her nickname?"

Nelia answered. "Who Pepper? That's easy. I stole her phone and read the last text. Now, answer Michelle's question, Stark."

Tony didn't feel like giving a mushy answer that they were probably expecting and instead answered, "Why not? She intrigues me. My turn."

"Uh bup bup bup bup buddy. Hold up. This isn't a conversation, it's an interrogation. You don't get to ask the questions, we do." Nelia interjected.

"I see. I know where this is going. You guys are wondering how Pepper is going on a date with such a strapping, young, handsome devil such as myself. Well I'm sorry to say but it's a family secret. We Starks have a kryptonite for red heads." Tony said playfully with his cocky playboy grin.

Nelia grinned and reached behind her and held up a sock. "Tell me Tony, do you know what this is?"

Tony feigned pensiveness before answering, "I'd have to say a potential noose or a sock."

"A butter sock to be exact. So what do you think of when you see this?" She asked as Michelle and Marissa rolled their eyes. Tony grinned. He liked Nelia.

"Well, two things come to mind; delicious and dangerous. And if I had to pick a third, epic." Nelia's face morphed into a huge grin.

"I like him." She said to Marissa and Michelle.

"I like me too." Tony played and Nelia laughed.

"Now, back to the interrogation." Marissa said after clearing her throat.

"Ah yes." Tony said now feeling completely relaxed and more like himself. "The interrogation." He mused with a wink to Nelia.

"We're going to ask a series of questions and all you have to do is give the immediate answer, do not elaborate." Michelle explained the first bit.

"Then we're going to say a few things to which you reply with the first thing that comes to mind." Marissa finished.

"I'll start. Favorite color?" Michelle asked.

"Hot rod red." Tony quickly replied.

Nelia eyed his shirt and commented, "Sexy color." Tony replied with a grin.

"Favorite movie?" Marissa inquired.

"The Italian Job." He replied after a moment of thought.

"Favorite video game?" Nelia asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Hmmm…I'd have to say Halo."

"Which one?" Nelia asked now very interested.

"Everyone knows the fourth is the best." Tony replied with a scoff.

"I love him."

She quickly said to Michelle and Marissa to which Tony grinned and answered, "Everyone does."

"Okay Stark, favorite T.V. Show?" Michelle grilled.

"Magnum P.I." He watched as Michelle practically froze and died on the spot.

"Favorite episode?" She quickly asked.

"Did You See The Sunrise."

"Which part?" She asked again ready to explode.

"one, no scratch that, two then one."

Michelle squealed loudly making everyone cover their ears. "Oh my gosh!"

"You're a P.I. too?" Tony asked curiously.

"Are you kidding me? Is Tom Selleck the only guy who can pull off wearing short shorts?" Michelle asked in full fan girl mode.

"Oh my gosh yes! Can you believe that-" Tony began, ready to go in full fan boy mode.

"Hey we don't have time for you two to start gushing over some old show." Marissa said with a clap of her hands to regain the two's attention.

"First of all it is a classic and it is amazing!" Tony defended.

"Finally someone who understands me." Michelle said with a happy tear in her eye.

"Anyways," Marissa said as her voice raised an octave, "Favorite music artist?"

"We'll continue this later." Tony said to Michelle who nodded with a smile. "That's a tough one. I can't really pick just one. It's between AC/DC and Black Sabbath."

"Nice!" Nelia said with an approving nod of her head.

"Favorite food?" Nelia asked hungrily.

"Stuffed portabella mushrooms." Tony replied far off imagining the mushrooms.

"Alright, now we move on to word association." Michelle informed. "Sports."

"Football." Tony replied easily.

"Clothes." Marissa said.

"Top of the line." Tony answered.

"Bars." Nelia said with a funny grin.

"Sexy women, cheap drinks." Tony blurted unashamed.

"Vegetables." Michelle said.

"Pepper." Tony responded with a smile.

"Pepper." Nelia quickly said so Marissa was unable to speak.

Tony paused as his eyes were drawn to someone emerging from the bathroom. "Beautiful." He said breathlessly as he stood up from the couch. The girls turned to see what he was looking at and saw Pepper standing just outside the bathroom. She had a blush that had begun to creep onto her cheeks at the way Tony stood looking at her.

"Looking good Pepper!" Michelle called out with a woot. Pepper laughed and Tony was struck silent. Her smile illuminated her beauty tenfold.

"I told you it would fit." Marissa said proudly as she looked over the knee length strapless, satin red dress that flowed freely and hugged her hips. Her red hair was curled and she wore brilliant red flats which allowed Tony to see even more of her legs. Her make-up was perfectly done which was a result of Marissa.

"You sure it looks okay?" Pepper asked nervously, aiming her question to her friends.

"Pep," Pepper shot him a quick look and Tony restarted his sentence. "Pepper, you look absolutely breath taking." She gave Tony an endearing smile and held his gaze until her friends interrupted her.

"So remember to have her home by one a.m." Marissa said with an approving smile.

Tony grinned and nodded. He held out his arm for Pepper on impulse and said, "Shall we?"

She smiled and took his arm, They were about to walk out the door when Nelia grabbed Tony and whispered in his ear darkly, "You hurt her in anyway and you'll feel just how dangerous the butter sock is when it's being smacked into your face."

Tony cleared his throat and nodded his head. "Understood."

Nelia clapped him on the back and smiled, "Have fun guys!" She said happily. Tony nodded and saluted her with two fingers and led Pepper out the door.

As they walked down the hallway and out of ear shot he grinned and said, "Well, you certainly have some good friends Pepper, very interesting too." Tony said whole heartedly.

"They didn't give you too much trouble I hope." Pepper said apologetically.

"Nothing I couldn't handle." He said with a cocky grin. Pepper rolled her eyes but had to smile. She couldn't wait to be alone with Tony in a nice restaurant.
