AN: Thank you all for all the nice reviews! Every single one makes me smile =)

This time, the song is „Just a kiss" by Lady Antebellum


Opposite to what most people think, the first month in Tonys and Peppers relationship after the expo was completely innocent. They'd spent hours just sitting together and talking or lying on the couch, she in his arms, just enjoying every moment. She was always totally caught up in his smile, and even though Tony found it hard to breath with Pepper so close, they didn't take it any further.

They waited because Tony really didn't want to mess this up. Pepper was the best thing in his life, he knew that, she was the one human he could really open up to, and he didn't want to push her too far, to scare her away or – god forbid – make her feel like she was only one of his one-night-stands. So, even though it was sometimes hard for him to hold back when she was there in his arms, they took it slow.

There was no need to rush it. They had had ten years till now, and Tony knew, if he did this one right, there would be the rest of their lives for them to be together.

So, every evening, he brought her home, kissed her goodnight in the moonlight and was the honourable boyfriend she wanted him to be, even though he felt the fire burning on his skin every time they touched. When he got back home, he went to bed, alone, but never lonely, because he knew she would always be there in his dreams.

After all, he was okay with just a kiss goodnight.
