Two updates in one day? Oh wow, I must really want to put off reading. No, I actually really like the book. I have a few more chapters started, so I might add them tonight too!

- Love-Me-Some-Pie

*Age 9*

Tony glances at his daughter and sighs, something's wrong with her, he just knows it. She isn't her usually chipper self, something is definitely wrong. "Princess," Tony says, sitting next to Margo on the couch. "Is something wrong?"

Margo sighs and looks at her Father. "It's not really something I can discuss with you Dad."

Tony gasps and frowns at Margo. "You know you can tell me anything young lady. You can discuss anything with me, it doesn't matter what it is."

Margo looks up at Tony again, violet eyes sad looking. "Not really Dad."

Tony sighs and wraps an arm around Margo's shoulders. "C'mon Princess, spill it. What's got you all upset?" Margo doesn't say anything and Tony resorts to different measures. He shifts his arm slightly, placing it around Margo's waist, affectionately dragging his daughter onto his lap. "Now that you can't hide your face from me, how about you tell me what's wrong?"

Margo buried her face just above Tony's arc reactor, placing her small hand on the glowing piece. She mumbles something into Tony's chest, tracing the metal frame of the reactor.

"What was that Princess?"

Margo lifts her head. "There's this boy at school."

Tony blinks down at Margo. "Boy? Is he causing you trouble Sweetheart? Making fun of you?" Margo shakes her head and Tony blinks again. "Then what is it?"

Margo's face suddenly becomes a bright shade of red and she fiddles with Tony's arc reactor again. Tony suddenly thinks he knows where this conversation is going. "Well...when I'm around him...I...umm...get butterflies in my tummy." Tony nods his head silently, he knows exactly where this is going. "And he makes me smile. He's really funny."

Tony rubs his eyes, this isn't exactly a conversation he wants to have with his little girl. In Tony's mind Margo will always be the violet eyed six year old he fell in love with at first sight, Tony never thought he could love one human being so much. Now, she's growing up, sure she's only nine, but point is, she's starting to like boys, at this age Tony thought she was still suppose to think boys had cooties. "Is he?"

"Yeah," Margo mumbles. "But there's a problem."

Tony laughs lightly, she's nine and she's having boy problems. Next time Margo needs boy advice he's sending her to Natasha, end of story. "What's the problem Princess?" Tony asks, running his fingers through Margo's hair.

"Well, Brittany gets butterflies in her tummy too when she's around this boy." Margo explains, fingers still tracing the metal frame of Tony's arc reactor.

Tony nods, a love triangle, sort of. "What's wrong with that? Can't you and Brittany like the same boy?"

"I never said I liked him Dad."

Tony rolls his eyes and taps Margo's nose with his index finger. "Unfortunately for you, Princess, I'm not stupid. You didn't have to tell me you liked him I can tell by the way you talk about him that you like him. Did you tell Brittany that you get butterflies in your tummy when you're around this boy?"

"Yeah," Margo whispers, laying her head back on Tony's chest. "I told her and she got upset with me. She said we both couldn't get butterflies in our tummy's around him."

Tony rubs his chin and pats his daughters head, trying to comfort her because it's obvious she's upset over this. "Well, it's not like you can help that you like this boy Margo."

"I don't like him Dad." Margo states, voice flat and dull.

"Right." Tony mumbles, continuing to talk. "If Brittany can't except that you get butterflies in your tummy-" Tony pokes Margo's stomach and the girl giggles. "Around this boy, then she'll have to get over it. She obviously isn't a true friend."

Margo looks thoughtful for a minute before she smiles. "You think so?"

"I know so." Tony smiles when Margo snuggles into his chest, he wraps his arms around her. "All better Princess?"

"All better Daddy!" Margo laughs out. "Thanks Daddy!"

"I told you Princess, you can talk to me about anything, doesn't matter what it is." Tony smiles and holds tighter to Margo. Next time she has boy problems he's definitely sending her to Natasha.
