"You liked it, right?" Tony asked, as he stood next to Pepper, hand in hand, in the elevator that was currently heading to their penthouse in Stark Tower. He furrowed his eyebrows and stared at her, hoping that she'd say yes.

Pepper chuckled playfully. "For the one hundredth time, Tony, yes, I loved it."

His lips slanted. "Things didn't go exactly as planned, so..."

"So, you assume I don't enjoy things if they don't go perfectly as planned." She told him.

He looked at her and stared. "Considering you've worked for me for the last decade, uh, yeah. I assume that. And you know it's true."

"Only sometimes." She admitted.

"Mm, like that time the Board of Directors had you plan the annual charity ball, and... I sort of..." He wanted the sentence to finish itself, but instead, Pepper finished it for him.

"...crashed through the ceiling in your Iron Man suit?" She said quite sternly.

"Uh... yeah." He frowned a bit and shrugged. "But everyone loved it and the kids looked like they were having a blast." He shrugged. He didn't want to poke and prod at the subject of the event that gave him a one way ticket to Pepper's shit list. The list only lasted a few days. She didn't want to admit it, but his charm was hard to ignore, more so than ever since they became a couple.

"Mm." She hummed. The remembrance of that night made her agitated.

He noticed the mood turned a bit sour after that little conversation, so he decided to change the subject. "Hey, it's Valentine's Day." He got her attention. "Why don't we just relax and forget everything that I said?" His lips turned into the most cheesiest smile. This made a smile grace her lips, one that he always loved seeing.

"Only because it's Valentine's Day." She compromised.

"Great," He wrapped his arm behind her back and let his hand rest on her hip. "Then let's say you and I start the evening with a bit of wine."

"Mm," she hummed in delight.

"Maybe your favorite wine from Italy?" He asked, pressing a loving kiss to the side of her head. She leaned into his lips and widened her smile. She turned her head to gaze up at him.

"You really know how to spoil a girl." She responded. He grinned and kissed her cheek.

He wore one of his signature Armani tuxedoes, and completed it with a red tie that matched Pepper's dress. Pepper wore an elegant strapless knee length dress, along with black heels that complimented her endlessly long legs. It took a while for Tony to stop staring at her legs when they were walking towards one of the most expensive restaurants in Beverly Hills.

Pepper had to tell him a few times to stop staring.

As the elevator doors opened, a sparkle appeared in Pepper's eyes. Her mouth dropped as the entire living room of their penthouse was filled with red rose petals. The lights were perfectly dimmed to compliment their romantic evening and as they entered the room, the sound of light jazz music began to play.

"Wh—Did you." She looked at Tony. He simply smiled. "I honestly didn't know you had this in you."

"Hey," He said, feeling wounded. "I can be romantic when I want to be."

She smirked at him. "You didn't have to do this."

"Why wouldn't I?" He asked with a small smile. He pulled her in for a hug and linked his hands behind her waist. She wrapped her arms around his neck and grinned. "We're celebrating our relationship."

"Mm, with roses and wine?" She hummed in satisfaction.

They swayed with the soft Jazz music that played in the background.

"Yeah and maybe a kiss or two." He shrugged slightly.

She grinned down at his lips. "Maybe." She teased.

He leaned forward and pressed his lips to hers, basking in the warmth of her arms and the feeling of her soft lips on his. It was more of a passionate kiss than a sensual one. Usually they would be pulling at each other's clothes, but this time, they didn't want the night to end so soon. After a few more seconds, they pulled away. He led her over to the sofa where a bottle of wine was sitting, as well as a bouquet of red and white roses.

He kicked off his shoes as she did with her heels. He took off his coat, loosened his tie, and undid a couple buttons on his dress shirt. He wanted them to be as relaxed as possible; no SHIELD missions and no other interruptions that would delay, or maybe even ruin, their evening. He wanted everything to be perfect, despite the setback during dinner.

Simply put, their table wasn't ready for half an hour, their dinner came out less than perfect, and the service was a tad slow, even though Pepper thought everything was fine. It wasn't in Tony's eyes.

He poured a glass for Pepper and then one for himself, and sat beside her on the couch. He wrapped his arm around her waist and held her against his side. He shifted his body a little so he could somewhat face her. He tipped his glass towards her and celebrated the start of their night with a clang. She smiled lovingly at him and took a sip of her drink.

"Mm," She hummed in satisfaction. "Just as I remembered. How did you know what kind of wine I liked?"

"I'm your boyfriend, Pep. I know what I'm doing." He said with a small smile.

"Right." She grinned. "And that time you forgot we had dinner reservations?"

He pressed his lips together and shrugged. "I don't know what you're talking about." She giggled and snuggled further into his side. "Okay, that was one time, and I hadn't slept in three days."

"You're so cute when you're frustrated." Her lips formed a wide smile.

They spent the next few minutes talking, exchanging small kisses, snuggling on the couch, and drinking wine. It was the perfect ending to the night, but the night had just begun for the both of them. They were laying down when Pepper lifted her head off his chest; he initially thought she was going to bed, but her soothing and seductive voice said otherwise.

"Okay," She started out. "You've done your part for Valentine's Day." She swung her legs over his lap and straddled him. His eyes immediately widened as his mind went on full alert. She leaned in close and let her hair tickle his neck. Her breath was hot against his skin, and her hands were slowly unbuttoning the rest of his dress shirt. "I think it's my turn, now."

"Holy..." Tony began to say under his breath. Pepper tugged his tie loose and held it up beside him. She ground her hips against his, in efforts to get him to move a little, while she smiled seductively.

"Pick the spot, Tony." She told him.

He just stared at her with his mouth wide open. He wanted it too much to even think, which would explain the growing erection in his pants. "I—Anywhere."

She grinned. "Are you sure about that?" She asked.

"I don't know if I'll last even a few minutes if you keep grinding against me like that." He grounded out, not noticing his hips were moving with hers.

"Okay, then." She said with a sly and seductive smile. She leaned forward and pressed her warm mouth against his. He hummed against her lips and let her take control. While their lips were preoccupied, she gathered his hands and tied his tie around his wrists. He didn't notice until she pulled away. He looked above his head and noticed the red silk tie. He raised his eyebrow and looked up at Pepper.

"You love tying me up, don't you?" He smirked.

She leaned forward and whispered hotly in his ear, "It's something you should never forget, Mr. Stark."

The sound of his last name escaping her red lips made him squirm uncontrollably. His throbbing erection was beginning to make itself known. Thankfully, he didn't have to worry about it being trapped in a prison, as his dress pants were loose enough to accommodate its needs.

"Don't move these." She said, touching the tie that was around his wrists. Her voice sounded more threatening than provocative. He didn't nod or shake his head. He could only stare at her as she began to rid her self of her red silk dress. He watched as she unzipped the back and brought her dress over her head. His jaw completely dropped at this point.

Underneath her dress was the most elegant piece of lingerie Tony has ever seen in his life.

"Holy shit, Pepper." He swore, wriggling his body that was trapped underneath her legs. "You were—you were wearing that underneath your—"

"I take it you like it?" She asked, fluttering her eyes at him. His erection was almost at its peak at this point. The red lacey lingerie was merely the ice cream on top for him. He wanted nothing more than his hands on her body, so he could unwrap his present.

"Baby, if you don't fuck me soon..." He plead. "... God, you're so hot when you're like this."

She widened her grin at him and continued to undress him. She unbuttoned the rest of his dress shirt and opened him like a curtain. His breathing hitched when his bare chest felt the open air around them. His breathing only got worse when Pepper placed her finger in the middle of his neck, and slowly, but surely, dragged it down. Her finger slipped towards its goal, but it was too slow for Tony's pace.

"God damn it." He swore through his teeth.

She smiled down at him and bit her bottom lip. She kept his eyes on his face as her finger slipped past his bellybutton and towards his belt buckle. He watched as she undid his belt and unzipped his pants. He wasn't sure what held him from moving his wrists, pushing her back against the couch, and pounding into her. He wasn't sure how much he wanted this until he resisted the urge.

She slipped off his lap and sat on top of his thighs. She slipped her fingers underneath the waistband of his boxers and let it linger there for a few seconds. A few seconds was enough for Tony, since he began to groan in frustration and buck his hips upwards.

She could see his erection protruding from his boxers, and what made it even more enjoyable for her was that he was already beading at the tip. She pulled the waistband down and past his throbbing cock. She took his shaft in her hand and stroked it a few times.

Tony groaned lowly and threw his head back into the arm of the couch. She leaned in and slowly dragged her tongue across the slit to gather the pre-come. He hummed lowly and tilted his head forward to see what she was doing.

"Mm," She smiled. "You're always so hard for me, Baby." She licked at the slit again. This time, he shrieked. She continued to stroke his penis at this point. She wanted to see what kind of pretty sounds she could extract from him.

She roughly stroked him a couple times; fast and then slow, and then fast again. He completely lost it when she rubbed her thumb against the tip of his cock. She enjoyed the sounds of him moaning, begging, and pleading.

"God—Pepper, please..." He begged.

"Please, what?" She asked. She squeezed the base of his cock, making him squeal.

"Please..." He moaned. "Please, please, please..."

"Say it." She grinned.

"Please fuck me already!" He practically screamed. He wriggled his hands uncontrollably and practically bucked into her hand.

"So impatient." She teased. She released her hold on his cock, but that made him beg even more.

"No—Pepper!" He shouted. He bucked his hips upwards, hoping for some kind of friction, but there was none. He was going crazy. "Pepper... please..." He was on the brink of insanity.

She grinned deviously and lifted herself over his hips. She hovered over his cock when she found him bucking uncontrollably, trying to slip past her sopping wet folds. She held the head of his penis and rubbed it against her folds. He groaned and bucked. A satisfying grin graced her lips when she saw the sight in front of him. She sometimes wondered why she liked doing this to him. She assumes its because she's had to work with an uncontrollable and untamable man for the past decade; having him in the palms of her hands was more than satisfying.

She sunk down on him with a low groan. She almost didn't hear the sound of his irregular breathing and pulsing moans. He was throbbing insider her, and even though he wanted her to pound him into the sofa cushions, she was still taking her sweet time. He was past insanity now.

"Damn it, Pepper." He grounded out and moved his hips.

"So big. Mm..." She moaned, lifting herself up an inch and then slowly sinking back down on him.

"Fuck—Pepper!" He screamed. His arms moved on their own; he threw his wrists over her head and behind her neck. Thanks to his daily workouts, along with the habit of being in shape to operate Iron Man, he was able to push her back. To her surprise, she fell backwards and landed on the other side of the couch. Her back sunk into the cushions, while her head laid inches from the arm rest. He couldn't position himself well since his wrists were tied together, but he was still deep inside her, letting him relentlessly pound into her. He leaned forward and rested his tied hands on top of the arm rest.

She squeaked in surprise when his hips slammed against her. She kept her hands above her head, to keep it from hitting the arm rest, and moaned loudly as he effortlessly dived in and out, out of her.

"Oh, god, Tony." She groaned. "Faster." She begged him.

"You feel so good." He breathed hotly. "So tight—so wet—unh..." He groaned. "And all mine." He leaned forward and let out a low growl every time he slipped back into her depths. He kicked it up a notch and began to continuously hit her sweet spot, which only made her moan more.

Within a couple minutes, they were both seeing white. She shrieked and gushed all over him. He moaned loudly and slowed his thrusts a bit, but he kept going so he could ride out both of their orgasms. She pawed at his chest while the waves kept hitting her over, and over. Her walls squeezed him uncontrollably, which only made him groan and come even more. She could feel hot streaks of come erupt inside her, and the pleasure that came from it was definitely something to smile about.

Her lips formed a wide smile as his thrusts slowed to a halt, and both of their orgasms subsided. He panted as he tried to catch his breath, but all she could do was smile.

"Iron Man never seems to disappoint." She said seductively, letting her fingers trace patterns on his chest.

"You." He smiled, still trying to catch his breath. "You are such a tease." He leaned forward and captured her lips with his. "Such a god damn tease."

"You love it." She said as she pulled away. "Admit it."

"There's a reason why I marked this as something I shouldn't forget." He paused. "Ever."

She chuckled and reached up to untie the tie from his wrists. He collapsed on top of her when he was finally free. She wrapped his arms around him and held him against her. She basked in the warmth of his body and hummed lovingly.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Tony."

He lifted himself up to hover over her. He grinned wildly and pressed a small kiss against her lips. "Oh no, it's not over yet. I'm not letting you off the hook this time, Potts." She laughed in his arms and felt his lips against her neck.

Happy Valentine's Day! :)
