Day of audition…..
Pepper auditioned for the role and of course got it. "Great now you must learn the real dance" said Mrs. Hester. "Now?" Pepper said. "We only have three days yes now!" she said. Pepper rolled her eyes as the dance teacher came in. "Did you stretch Pepper?" she asked. "Yes Ms. Lawrence" Pepper said. "Good no time to be wasted chop chop!" she said. Pepper worked on her new dance for an hour and thirty minutes, after she walked to the armory where Rhodey and Tony were. She dropped her stuff and plopped on the floor. "This is hell" she said covering her face.
Tony walked over to her and crouched next to her. "Couldn't be that bad" he said. "My thighs are killing me" she said. Tony started poking her back. "I thought you were ticklish" Tony said disappointed. "I'm too tired to react" she said. "Wow and not a lot of people could pull that off" he said. Tony hoisted her up with waist up dangling behind him and Tony's arms around her legs with his hands fairly close to her butt. "Don't you dare….." she said as she thought he was gonna do something dirty. "I wasn't thinking of anything" he said chucking. "Sick dude and with me here!" Rhodey said. Tony laughed and set Pepper on the comfortable chair.
Pepper shut her eyes wanting to sleep. Hours passed and Pepper was sleeping this whole time. "It's getting late I'm gonna head out" Rhodey said. "Later Rhodes" Tony said. Rhodey left the armory and Tony walked over to Pepper. "Time to wake up sleeping beauty" he said gently shaking her. Pepper's position was her head rested on the arm rest and her feet dangling on the other end. Tony smiled at her and bent down closer to her face. "Pepper time to wake up" he said. Tony gave her a kiss since it wasn't working then after she woke up to the strange feel on her lips. "Ah and the beauty awakens!" he said. Pepper rubbed her eyes. "What do you want?" she asked grumpily.
"Time to go home" Tony said. "Too lazy to move" she said. Tony chuckled and picked her up. "Sweet boy" she said. "For now you think that, then tomorrow you'll get all grumpy on me" he said. "Will not!" she said. 'Keep thinking that hon" he said. Pepper's cheeks shaded a light pink. Tony got to her doorstep and put her down. "Thanks" she said. "See you tomorrow" he said. Pepper gave him a kiss and entered her home. Tony walked to his home. "That little number is gonna be epic" he said laughing. The next day it was the same thing….school and dance. "And 1 and 2 and 3 and 4…" said Ms. Lawrence.
"Wrong!" she yelled. "Again" she said. Pepper was screaming inside as she was so annoyed. "And 1 and 2 and 3 and 4…." Ms. Lawrence counting her moves. "Good….." she said. Pepper accidently tripped and fell on her thigh. "Holy-"Pepper held back what she was going to say and just clutched her thigh. "That's what happens when you don't stretch now up, up!" Ms. Lawrence said. Pepper growled. She got up and finished her session.
Pepper walked home but was caught by Whitney. "So ready for the show?" she asked. "Umm not quite" Pepper said. "Well make sure of this, you will not steal my spot light!" Whitney said firmly. "I wasn't going for that" Pepper said. "That dance will take off the light from me I want you to mess it up!" she said. "Oh I'm gonna look like the idiot who can't dance? No way am I making a fool of myself and the teacher" Pepper said. "You will or else" Whitney said. "Or else what?" Pepper asked. "Or else something you won't like will happen" Whitney said smirking.
"Nice try" Pepper said walking past her. Whitney smirked and walked away. The day of the play came and Pepper worked hard the last day before the play because she didn't want to mess up because Whitney told her to. Everyone had rehearsed and memorized their lines and were ready, Tony knew who he was supposed to be in love with….it was the dancer but he didn't tell Pepper until she figured it out when she rehearsed her lines.
Everyone got into their costumes. Whitney wore scrubs and they guy that played Romeo wore a blue prince outfit. Rhodey wore elegant clothes too because the family would never accept him as Romeo's friend if he wasn't rich in the play. Tony played a man at the ball that wasn't acquainted at all with Romeo and his character's name was Nathan. The play began and it started with Whitney pretending to scrub the floors. "We have a ball to go to Cinderella!" said the girl who played the step mother. "Do I get to go?" she asked. "Of course not the prince cannot see someone like you" she said. The sister's snorted. "Now do these extra chores, we can't have you on breaks while we're gone" she said.
She threw her a piece of paper with chores on it. "We're off" she said. The three left to the ball. "I still have a chance!" she said. Cinderella finished the chores as fast as she could, she only missed half an hour of the ball. She put on the dress the mice made for her but as she walked to the ball her dress got caught on a bush thorn and tore it severely. "I can't go to the ball like this what do I do!" she said crying on the floor. A light brightened up to reveal a fairy, it was the fairy godmother. "Who are you?" Cinderella asked. "I'm you're fairy godmother I'm here to make your wishes come true!" she said.
"Bibbity bobbity boo!" she said. Cinderella turned into a princess and a pumpkin turned into an elegant carriage was waiting. "Go hurry now!" she said. The carriage took her to the ball and dropped her off.
"And now for our special entertainment!" said a servant. Whitney was standing in the crowd watching to see if Pepper was going to do what she said. Pepper walked to the center of the stage wearing a white frilly dress that was only see through from the waist down, she wore tights that almost blended with her skin and regular ballet shoes. The music started and Pepper danced her taught choreography as planned which made Whitney mad. "I warned you" she whispered. Whitney made her way to Tony and grabbed his tie that he was wearing and kissed him right in front of Pepper.
Everyone gasped in shock and Pepper stopped. "I'm in love with you Nathan!" she said. Rhodey covered his face with his hand. "Oh no" Rhodey said knowing what Pepper would do. Pepper was furious but she stayed in character as best she could, she twirled over to Whitney and did a turn with her leg 90 degrees which hit Whitney and made her fall. "Oh my I'm terribly sorry!" she said sarcastically in a British accent. Whitney glared at her, she couldn't take it anymore so she got up and dusted herself off and turned to Tony. "As I was saying I'm in love with you Nathan and I want you to be mine" she said kissing him again.
Pepper smiled and grabbed her from the back of her neck squeezing it. "Don't you think you should go to Romeo?" she asked smiling. Whitney was trying to release Pepper from her but it wouldn't work. "N-No I love Nathan" Whitney said. Pepper squeezed harder, Whitney got angry and went on a rampage. "PEPPER LET GO!" she screamed. Whitney tried to attack Pepper but she dodged her every move.
"UGH I HATE YOU!" Whitney screamed. Pepper did an aerial across the stage dodging Whitney. "Too bad you aren't flexible like me like you've always wanted to be you can't even touch your toes!" Pepper said. "TAKE THAT BACK!" Whitney said. The teacher didn't do anything because she saw the audience loving it. Whitney tried punching Pepper but Pepper caught her fist and tripped Whitney. Whitney quickly got up attempting to attack again but Pepper was just going all acrobatic on her, she back flipped and cart wheeled which made Whitney frustrated just like Pepper was going for.
"QUIT DOING TRICKS ITS ANNOYING!" she yelled. "Good its working!" Pepper said. Finally Whitney plopped on the floor and cried. "I just want spot light!" she yelled. Everyone laughed and video tapped the whole thing. When Pepper's guard was down Whitney quickly got up and kicked her slamming her side against the wall. The teacher finally broke the fight up and took Whitney to the principal's office.
"You alright Pep?" Tony asked kneeling next to her. "Ow..." Pepper said. "Where does it hurt" he asked. "My head the most" she said. Tony rubbed her head and helped her up, he put her arm around him and his arm around her waist giving her support. "Is she okay, does she need a doctor?" someone asked. "No thanks, I'm just gonna take her home" he said. Tony carried her to the armory and set her on the chair and examined her head for any marks.
"I'm fine now Tony" she said. "No you're bleeding" he said. Tony cleaned up the blood from the side of her cheek, sprayed it with disinfectant, put a small band aid and kissed it. "Better?" he asked. Pepper nodded smiling. Tony hugged her. "If it makes you feel any better she wasn't a very good kisser" he said. "Still I hated it" she said. "I'm sorry" he said. "Don't be" Pepper said kissing him. "Tomorrows Saturday we could sleep here together tonight if you want to" he said. Pepped nodded smiling.
The cuddled on the comfy chair with a blanket over them. "Night" Tony said kissing her head. "Night" Pepper replied.
