Peper Potts was really busy that night. She as president of Stark Company ought to attend to all the press that had attended a Christmas party for charity. Pepper confirmed that all benefits were reflected that night was directed to more needy orphanages in America. She was going to deal with this because she did not trust a lot of people who were in the company. She has only spoken twice with important businessmen of the company and the first impression she had them was the same. Leeches who just wanted more power and money.
For that night she had chosen an elegant white dress night tight curves of her body. Pepper caught the attention of all the young millionaires, movie stars and models who had attended the party. But she did not seem to notice or maybe she knew all the looks implied. Pepper served only to guests, the press, she went back and forth and asked herself where was Tony. He always was delayed in the parties. On the one hand she understood him, Tony had always been a bit antisocial and he liked to spend hours and hours working on his cars and his Iron Man´s armor. He was very independent, he was the man she loved in silence .
Pepper took a glass of champagne and took a long drink, she was nervous because that night was the first time which she appeared as President of the Company. But she was sometimes tempted to leave , just had time for her and not to be with Tony. Although she sometimes thought it was best not to suffer.
And Michael Bubble started singing 'Come fly with me' song and all couples began dancing under a beautiful star-studded ceiling and inviting mistletoe. Pepper sighed after turning down offers of attractive men dance and went to the balcony alone WORDS 309 word count TAG ?! For you OUTFIT ?! outfitie NOTES ?! i hope that you likes

Cable stood on the balcony looking out. All people saw was a man in a tux. He had shaped every one mind to see this as far as they knew he was not the hardened fighter but some one who was meant to be here. HE listened to the music closed his eyes it was strange it was not some thing he he was use to. HE could forget the mission if he was not careful.
He looked down at the city from here you could forget that you were part of the world. HE was here to work nothing more nothing less. He loved being this high but normally he was floating in the air. He smiled as he listened to people thoughts and what they were saying. Some of the people here were all about the back stab and greed. Some of them were here for all the right reasons he smiled this could be interesting.

Tony arrived from a business meeting from across town that needed his attention. He straighten out bow-tie, as he got out of his Audi R8, catching the sights of all the reporters around there. He smirked a bit as he walked passed them fixing his Sleeves. He walked up along his tower as he greeted a bunch of women kissing there hands along the way. The women seemed fixed their sights on him, watching as he moved and giggling as he looked towards them smiling. But with that also came the jealousy of the guys there staring him down. He chuckled a bit not really caring what they thought at the moment. He continued to walk around saying hi to different people. He even saw some people who he didn't like, such as the head of Hammer industries. Tony at the moment wondered why Pepper would even invite him. He cracked some jokes along the way as he went to the bar and drank some of the selection of alcoholic drinks there. He paid the guy, taking his drink and downing it quickly.
Before he knew it as he was drinking his second drink, they were playing some couple songs. He snapped his fingers remembering that he owed Pepper a dance. Looking around, he asked people where she might have gone seeing as she was the one who wanted him to come in the first place. They pointed him to the balcony where he noticed her just standing there overlooking the city. He smirked caring two drinks over towards her. But then before he could open the door a reporter girl cut him off asking him questions about Iron man. "Well you see I'm kinda in a hurry so if you don't mind I'll gloat that I'm Iron man later" he told her walking passed her.
She however wouldn't let it go tugging at his pants stopping him, he balanced the drinks to make sure they didn't spill. He shook his head smirking a bit turning around with a smile. "Listen princess galore, I have a meeting to get to I don't really have time" he stated backing up a bit. She got a bit closer, bring up how he and her were together for one night and had Pepper throw her out and wondering if he was doing the same with his company. He laughed, "I'll tell you something, the company has never been higher, and apparently we are still paying for you reporters to probe us, oh the fun". She gave him a bit of a stare before he walked off to the balcony.
"Hey Pepper, you know the view is better up inside you know where the reporters can get to me and suck the fun out of me" he told her smirking. He walked up to her placing the drink next to the edge but making sure that the drink didn't fall off. "So tell me what is a beautiful secretary like your self doing out here all by her lone some" he said smiling.

Pepper had been engrossed watching the vision of the city lit by Christmas lights, the view was beautiful. She sighed and dropped the chin on one hand and leaned slightly on the balcony. She saw that she was not alone in these moments, an attractive man in a tuxedo had gone perhaps for fresh air because the atmosphere was inside was a little congested. Pepper stared quietly out without looking like a blatant it. He seemed not to have noticed her presence. But Potts' attention was placed on the buzz that had been created in the room, Tony had arrived, there was no doubt. The laughter of women, the press was chasing him. But she had not expected him to appear on the balcony and in his two hands two glasses of champagne.
She smiled, feeling the heat in the body, that night he was very attractive. Pepper's heart began to beat violently. "Oh, I'm incredibly happy that you could come. I thought that you had caught a woman and she had been raped you in some corner of the room". She teased him watching him up and down watching the stylish black Armani tux. "You bow tie a little crooked". She moved closer to him and did this with fingers moving quickly to tighten over the loop around his strong neck. She inspired the sweet scent of his cologne, stunning.
"Thanks for coming Tony. I know that you're so busy." Smiling ironically taking the glass of champagne. "You know I still have a headache by the whiskey I have taken this afternoon?. But champagne is not going to feel bad. But if you're feeling a little overwhelmed you could put your shining Iron man ´s armor and leave here. Sometimes I feel oppressed myself and with wishes for what you takes your armor and take me away from here. Sometimes I'm too overwhelmed to face with everything. Errr ... me beautiful? . Came on, if even I have called attention to that handsome man who is there, Tony " .She pointed a finger at Cable down a little more word about Tony. Oh god, i love his smell .- She thought drinking all champagne and praying that he did not see the mistletoe that fell beneath them. WORDS 309 word count TAG ?! For you OUTFIT ?! outfitie NOTES ?! i hope that you likes

Cable smiled thoughts were the window t soul people needed things and tony stark was no different. The world was interesting and he had some thing that would make stark's mouth water as much as any woman. HE needed to aim stark in the right direction and this would do it. He looked out as he heard Potts point him out. well he had two plans for this night one of them would make an impact in a different and more aggressive way he did hope it would not come to that,
As far as stark thought he was advanced but if it came to it cables tech was far more advanced than anything Tony Stark could think up of. Most of his tech was made from Stark's stuff but he had 2000 years of advantages to help him out if it came to a fight.

He smiled at her as she turned his gaze at him from the bright city scape the shined on his estate. The Christmas lights to him had seemed to be put up to early seeing as it was still the beginning of December. Then again he always forgot the months he was in so it was a good indicator what time of the year it was. However that wasn't really on his mind, what was really on his mind was Pepper. She looked stunning in her dress, that made her grab his attention faster then his weapons over in the middle east. He couldn't help the smile that grew on his face due to her presence. Though the moment was kind of ruined when he heard the chatter in the back.
"Well you never fully know now would you, the night is still young" he responded to her comment about a women taking him. Though he wouldn't allow it tonight, seeing as he specifically came for Pepper. As he started to drink from his glass he saw Pepper approach him, fixing his tie. Tony looked to her and blinked a bit smiling seeing as they were a lot closer to each other now. He could smell her perfume from this distance and her beauty took him a bit. He also could see her figure which he looked over with his eyes.
"Eh it was no problem, even I got social obligations to up hold right?" he told her smiling a bit as she took her glass from him. He continued to listen to her explain how she was still a little wozzy from the whiskey earlier, him laughing a bit. "We could head to Venice you know, I could fly us there avoid all this. You know with being president, we could you know call it a..company retreat" he told her with a slight smile. Tony then listened to her saying how if she was so beautiful how come she didn't catch the guy's attention from a little ways from them. Before he could say anything to that however he took a slight glance at the man. Some feeling of knowing the person before over took him. He wondered where he met the man, or why he wasn't even invited, for Tony knew most of the important people here. Tony looked back at Pepper, "You are beautiful Pepper don't let anyone else tell you otherwise".

Pepper smiled shyly when he came to her. Even her eyes danced to see him perfect in his tuxedo. Pepper sometimes could not repress her looks but if she could repress her feelings, nothing was said and everything was hidden. "The night is always young for you, Tony.' You are restless" Accepted the champagne glass drinking the drink in one gulp to put the black tie well. Even her fingers brushed his neck accidentally, his skin was warm and hot. Instead her skin was icy cold was doing that night.
"Hope you do not tighten the bow, Tony. I will not drown, I need you by my side to deal with the company". They were very close to each other. If he could smell her perfume, she could smell him. Her blue eyes were fixed on his white shirt dimly lit by the lights of the battery. She looked worried. "Here you've changed before coming, right Tony?". She stroked his chest lightly feeling in the fingers of the battery recess. "I do not change this again, I did once and almost died. But if I have to do it again, I will". She was determined because knew he could die and she always was afraid every day, If he was going to end up dead, killed off by some crazy or if he was going to explode in the air while flying in his Ironman armor . She was always suffering from the man she loved, she had too much stress.
"Ehhhh, your obligations Tony is helping with the company, you by my side and always have been. I do not pay attention to the rose press that says we look like a marriage. And if we go to Venice as you have suggested, then if the gossip will spread everywhere. But I would love to go to Venice you, be at peace for a few days, resting ... "
But this was impossible. She ought to deal with a company that was one of the most important of America. In addition she also had to take care of Tony.
"Come on, Tony!, You say all women are beautiful. And do not you dance with me tonight?. We have brought Michael Bubble. Dance with me ...". She offered her hand to him. "Let us dance under the mistletoe, do you dare? ." Pepper dared approach him offering her body for him to grab. "You will not be shy with me, right?" WORDS 309 word count TAG ?! For you OUTFIT ?! outfitie NOTES ?! i hope that you likes

Cable watched the two of the dance it was time make an impact and he need it to be an interesting one he pulled some thing out of his belt and drooped it. stark had some thing he needed and he had some thing stark needed. the ball rolled to a stop slowly it grew legs and walked up the walls lucky no one had noticed because he had made them not see it. He felt sorry for Stark and pots they were going to have it bad over the next ten years and they would still not end togeather. destiny was cruel and they were the key example. he knew this would be a strain on him but he must. he took a drink and now he would wait for a moment before he did.

Adam moved around, interacting with the individuals here. He smiled as he took note of Cable. He saw him roll the ball and everything but ignored it. He had recently gotten engaged to Felicia and he was exuberant. Unfortunately, she hadn't felt like coming today. Adam had had many dealings with Stark Enterprise. He saw Potts and Stark dancing and smirked. He decided to see what Cable was up to, especially since he hadn't taken his offer. Adam walked up to Cable, standing beside him. "I apologize that I was unable to take your offer. I don't mess with the fabrics of time, my friend."

Tony simply smiled at Pepper who drank her champagne after she was done fixing his tie. He might not mention it a lot but he did in fact need Pepper by his side. And the day she married Happy tore his heart out, but in the end he never said anything, wanting her to be happy. But in the end he had a chance after all, or at least he thought he did. The winter winds blew lightly at them, up in his Stark estate. The party inside was in full swing, with the music playing and people talking. The chatter inside would mostly consist of business talk and the like. Which never fully grabbed his attention in the first place. It was either 'Hey Mr. Stark we should have a merger' or 'Hello Mr. Stark I have an idea to pitch at you'. He didn't want that tonight however, the evening was going smooth and Pepper looked wonderful. He took another look at her again, her nice blondish red hair brightened a bit under the light. Her skin glinting a bit in her dress which grasped his eyes over.
He began drinking from his glass again when she approached him touching where his arch reactor was. He could see her fingers trace around the thing that was firmly keeping him alive. "Yeah had to, been a couple of months since I did. I guess I can now same I'm a very enlightening guy" he answered with a joke at the end. "And you don't have to Pepper it's fine I can do it now I made it so you didn't have to again" he continued. Tony fully knew how that kind of disturbed her, I mean she did have her hand inside of her boss almost killing him. But in the end it turned out alright, he then heard heard her say something about the rumors of them being together and how she would love to go.
"Well that's great, but I have a feeling your just leading me on, I know how you are Pepper all work and no Play". He looked at her with a smile. She then approached him again telling him about the dance and if he would dare to try under the mistletoe. Tony grasped her hand lightly, smiling a bit as he walked closer towards her. "I don't think I would" he smiled as he put one arm around her as he danced with her.
He twirled her a bit as he kept on slowly dancing, feeling her warmth. Looking into her eyes he smiled a bit before looking up and seeing the same guy and a new person. The other he knew having some dealing with him, the other he had a strange feeling. Tony looked back at Pepper a bit serious getting a slight bad feeling. He didn't want to worry her so he smiled again. "You know Pepper, if you were any more beautiful I would think I was dancing with a model".

Pepper was not used to drinking but she did not care. Tony could take her home after the party without thinking that the press chose them relentlessly. And the next day the headlines: "This confirms Miss Peper Tony Stark and Potts have a romance!". She laughed at the thought and grabbed the tray of a waiter an glass, she quickly drank champagne. Her cheeks are rosy deliciously. Pepper was not aware that every time she was closer to him. Touched with concern the reactor arch of his chest . "I was so worried, Tony, when I had to do it." Pepper looked at his lips. Christmas was declared in many feelings and she thought about it, she thought of risk. "You know Tony that if something happens, or you're worried about something, you can tell me, right?". Said to him supporting a hand on his chest. She could feel the tight muscles and smooth tact of his suit.
"Yes, I am a machine. Always working, always be busy. But I'm tired. I have a lot of tension stored in the body, Tony" Pepper rounded his shoulders with one armand closed her more to him to start dancing. She ignored the curious looks, the murmurs, the flash of digital cameras from the press. Now she wanted to be with him, dancing under the mistletoe and feel close.
Pepper looked into his eyes and saw how he watched the two men who had appeared there. "You know these men, Tony?". She asked him in his ear. Again, she inspired his perfume that fell from his neck. Wonderful and unforgettable. "A model? ... You are a flatterer!". She started to laugh with happiness. "But I'm dancing with the most wanted man, the man that women wish they had in bed Ironman." Tempted joked about his lips. "Tony, you know that mistletoe can be dangerous if eaten?. But a kiss. It is much more dangerous".Pepper still dancing with him ever closer, she gently caressed his neck while meeting his eyes, she said without words what she really felt for Tony Stark.

" I knew you would say no but the offer of help is always open. It may be dangerous here in a moment. Thing have been put in motion. every thing is moving far to slowly for my plans and for the world safety. stark needs to stop thinking with his lower brain and needs to get of the drink."
He hated to say it but one of earth mightiest heroes was not going to be ready for his challenge that would face him soon. it was a worry to him and the planes. May be it was time to try ad talk with him. " i think i may have to crash this event. "

The place was of course crowded, and the noise could be heard all the way up inside the penthouse. Abby was trying her best to concentrate on her newest pet project, but the music and the lights kept disturbing her. She sighed, knowing it wasn’t going to let her finish her task and got up. She walked over to her big walk in closet and took a look around her newly acquired wardrobe. She spied a deep violet Jocelyn One-Shoulder Dress and took it off the rail and hanger. She then grabbed a pair of black evening pumps that goes real well with the dress. She quickly changed her closes from her tee shirt, jeans, and tennis shoes into her new outfit. She thought she was done, but then she spied herself in the mirror on the way out. Her hair was a mess, and she then dashed into the nearby bathroom and fixed it up into a formal bun leaving a few strands loose and free around her face. Once she had passed her own inspection she made her way toward the party.
Once she found the party, she knew she find her father and ask if she could stay. So she made it her mission to find him. Once the crowd came into view, she scanned it looking for him, but to her surprise he was not inside. She sighed and knew that this was not going to be easy. She approached the nearest adult and asked if they had seen Mr. Stark. ”You're Abigail Rasmussen, aren’t you?” The person asked, and she panicked inside. She just had to ask a report of all people about her dad. She swallowed and nodded her head. ”What do you plan on accomplishing next?” The reporter asked, and instead of answering, she took a look around the room. She saw that those nearby had noticed her as well and began to shout that she was here.
”That is not how my mind works. Now if you will excuse me, I have to find Mr. Stark.” She finally replied and escaped the crowd to an outside balcony. She leaned on the railing and took a deep breath. She wasn’t too good with being bombarded like that by reporters or a crowd. She always thought that they would end up touching her, and she just didn’t like that. Once she had calmed down a bit, she looked up and saw her dad with his personal assistant. Miss Potts she believed. She slowly approached them wondering if she would get in trouble for showing up. She had just happened to look out and saw the overgrown oaf who had caused her prison to crumble down around her with someone she didn’t recognize.
’First things first, Abby. Ask your dad if you can stay, and then worry about the other things.’ She thought to herself and closed the distance between the couple dancing and herself. She reached out a hand and tugged on his tux jacket gently. When she thought she had his attention, she asked her question. ”Can I please stay, Dad?” She asked with a pleading look, she really wanted to stay since the noise from the party is distracting her from her project.

Tony looked at Pepper when she said she was worried when she had to take the arch reactor out of his chest. It was true he did put her into an awkward situation seeing as one little miss hap could have killed him. But he trusted Pepper, knowing fully well that she was capable of doing the task, he knew her well. He looked up to the night sky again, of course not really seeing any stars. Why would you happen to see them it was in the city, the only time he could see as star if he was flying around in his Iron Man suit. But his thoughts broke a minute as he looked to Pepper who told him he could tell her anything. He smirked a bit at her, "Of course Pepper I know that, I know I can count on you".
He listened to Pepper say that she was stressed out from the long days of work. Of course she could take a break from all this put he knew Pepper wanted to get the work done. The flashes of light from the cameras hit his back. He noticed them only because they shinned off of Peppers skin. Tony then started to lean in a bit closer to her smelling her aroma, which got stronger. As he kept on dancing with Pepper he again took notice to her face. She was beautiful tonight and he wouldn't have change this for anything.
Tony then played it off that he didn't hear her point out the guys standing on the balcony. He didn't want any problems right now, but of course he had a feeling that there was going to be some. Catching her little description on the mistletoe , he smirked a bit at her as he got closer to her face. "Oh really now, then maybe we should try it Ms.Potts". He looked into her eyes for a moment before going in a bit closer to her so he could give her a slight kiss. But before he could he felt a slight tug at his tux jacket, he raised a brow and pulled away looking to the direction of where the tug came from.
It of course was Abigail, who he guessed either felt cramp in the penthouse, or the party was distracting her. Either way it was a surprise that she even wanted to come in the first place. He kneeled down slightly smiling a bit at her. "Sure Abby you can stay just try and stay out of trouble alright, we don't need much press today". After that he got up and looked to Pepper in which he knew she was going to have a look on her face of shook, or anger. "Yeah I know what your thinking, and I was just as surprised as you when I found out about a day ago".

Steve stood by two double doors near the rear entrance of the building, his blue eyes hidden behind black sunglasses, which linked him to Nick Fury, who was aboard the Helicarrier, monitoring everything, as always. Steve hated parties like these, never feeling comfortable around big wigs like these, always expecting one of them to stab him in the back, and steal his wallet. Luckily, he had his shield hidden in the back of his black, suit jacket, so he felt somewhat safer there. He didn't like the reason for this mission, as Nick Fury knew he wouldn't, when they spoke of it, just some five hours earlier.....
"Captain, glad to see. I was hoping you would drop by, please come in." Nick Fury had always been one of Steve's most trusted allies, one of the few that didn't wear a mask, so he glad to discover that when he woke up in this new and strange place, that his friend was still there, and waiting for him. He nodded, as he walked into the man's office, a smile on his face. It felt strange for him to see his friend, not only looking older, but also the fact that Nick was now his Commanding Officer, also took some getting use to. Sure he was happy that his friend had done so well, but to have such a drastic change, to go from CO to subordinate in what seemed only hours, well it was tough for him to wrap his head around. Still, Steve was a soldier, and he would behave and carry himself, like one, especially for Nick Fury.
"Colonel, I wanted to ask you about this new assignment, I have been given, playing bodyguard for a bunch of wealthy businessmen seems a little....well, a little bit of an..." Nick raised his hand, interrupting Steve, as he felt the same way, but he had his reasons for giving Steve the assignment. "It's a bit much, I know. However, the President felt that he couldn't leave Tony Stark, unguarded for long, even if Blackwidow was already tailing him. In fact, the truth is that he doesn't fully trust Natasha, and wants you to keep tabs on her, as well as protect Tony and his guests." While Nick trusted Natasha with his life, he was one of the select few that did, unlike the President, who was on less than friendly terms with Natasha's native and former home country, which was why he ordered SHIELD to keep a close eye on her, and why Nick gave the job to Steve.
(Now) Even from from halfway across the room, he had no trouble spotting Tony Stark, but even his well trained eyes had yet to spot the Blackwidow, which was why she was so dangerous and valued by SHIELD, and feared by them aswell. He adjusted his tie, feeling almost trapped in his suit, made more annoying by the music that was blaring over the loud speakers, and through the room. They call this music? What ever happen to Bing Crosby? This is just noise. He thought to himself, unaware of Cable's present, or the fact he was probably listening to his every thought, since SHIELD had no idea he was even there.
