Thank-you all for reviewing. Chapter 3, let's see what happens (: Let me know!
The taxi pulled up to Pepper's childhood home and Tony opened the door for Pepper to get out. He then rushed to get the bags from the boot and then pay the driver. They were both left standing at on the pavement, Tony managing to hold both their bags in his right hand.
"Let's do this" Tony said slipping his free hand into Pepper's and smiling, she smiled back. Pepper took a deep breath and pulled him up the path to the front door. Before they could reach it an excited looking, older women came rushing out and threw her arms around Pepper.
"Hey mum!" Pepper said chuckling and wrapping her arms back round the women. The women smiled and then looked at Tony and before he could react she threw her arms round him. Tony was shocked at first, but then hugged back enthusiastically.
"Hello Mrs. Potts-"Tony started, but was cut off.
"Oh don't start with all those formalities Tony" the women said waving her hand. "I'm Barbara and this is my husband, Simon" Tony looked from Barbara to a happy looking man walking towards them, Tony assumed was Simon. He put his hand out and shook it giving a gentle smile.
"Hey Tony, nice to meet you" Simon returned the smile and then turned to Pepper "and how's my little girl?" he said hugging Pepper.
"Great thanks Dad. I'm sure you two already know, but this is Tony Stark... my boyfriend" Pepper said looking at Tony's massive grin again. He then added the effect and put his arm around Pepper's shoulders and picked the bags back up from where they fell when Barbara hugged him.
"Shall we?" Tony asked, suggesting they go into the house. Simon agreed and took one of the bags from Tony's hand and then followed Barbara into the house. Leaving himself and Pepper to stand together, Tony's arm still wrapped around her waist.
"Thank-you" Pepper said, kissing Tony on the cheek and smiling, before following her parents in. Tony was left outside her house, grinning like an idiot.
"And this is your room; hope can make yourself comfortable Tony. Pepper you know where everything is and I guess I'll see you two tomorrow" Barbara smiled before kissing them both on the cheeks, walking out and closing the door behind her. Tony turned around and looked at Pepper, hand in his pockets.
"One bed" Tony stated "bit of a given as we are 'going out'. I guess I can take the floor" Tony said pulling a blanket that was draped over the chair in the corner of the room. He started to lay it down and as he went to pick up some pillows, he was stopped by a hand on his shoulder. He turned to see Pepper.
"Tony, don't be stupid. We're both adults and both need a good rest after that journey-from-hell" Pepper said smiling slightly. They had just been on a ridiculously long and uncomfortable flight; they both needed a proper bed. And this could be an excuse for Pepper to 'accidently' brush up against Tony.
"Well" Tony cleared his throat "Only if you're sure Potts, because i'll have you know I find it hard to sleep with clothes on. But I can make the exception of wearing boxers for you" Tony said winking and slowly nearing Pepper.
"I'm sure I can deal with that, if you can deal with me wearing an overgrown t-shirt and undies" Pepper answered, smirking and biting down on her lip.
"Oh, I think i'll manage" Pepper could feel Tony's breath on her when he talked, he was so close again. But she wasn't going to let him win this time so she took control. She put her hand on his chest and let it travel a path to his belt buckle. His eyes grew dark and followed the path her hand was making.
Tony thought this was it; he didn't need to do anything. Pepper was doing it all for him, no persuading this weekend. And by the rate she's going, they won't need to pretend at all at the wedding. It'll all be true! He was getting excited, but tried to suppress it. Pepper could see Tony was loving this, so that's when she decided she'd really tease him. She leaned in so they're lips were almost touching.
"I know we're trying to convince my family this weekend... but they don't need to see this Stark" and with that Pepper winked and walked into the en suite bathroom. Leaving Tony with his mouth hanging open in the middle of the room.
Damn! Well of course her family didn't need to see them doing... adult things. But, Tony sure didn't mind seeing something of that sort. Looks like he just needed to give her that little push and she'd be his. Tony snapped out of his daze, stripped to his boxers and jumped into bed.
The bathroom door opened and the lights were turned off. Tony was watching her from under the duvet and could see her silhouette walking towards the bed. His breath got caught in his throat when he saw that she just opted for a lace bra and undies. No t-shirt!
She crawled into bed next to him and snuggled up to him, pulling his arm around her waist and their bodies ever closer. Her eyes were closed and she looked intent on sleeping. Until she leaned up and pecked Tony on the lips, she then turned around and backed up against him. He still had his arm around her waist.
"G'night Tony" she yawned out and then fell asleep. Tony was in shock for a minute or two until he snuggled in and became comfortable.
"Goodnight Pepper" he said smiling, before falling asleep himself.
The parents like him, Pepper likes him, we like him. Tony's perfect! (: HAPPY WRITING ALL.x
