Savior- A Tony Stark/ Ironman Love story

After Mack left Tony when into his office and looked out the New York skyline. Knowing that Nick Fury was Mack’s Godfather came as quite a surprise to Tony. He knew that he needed to know more about her.

“JARVIS, do background check on Dr. Mackenzie Piers. Start with Elkon research personnel files and expand out from there. “

“Yes Sir, searching now. How far would you like for me to go back?” The computer engineered voice asked.

“As far as you can. Get what you can.” Tony replied.

“How Interested are you, sir?”

“Very.” Soon Mack’s whole life came up on the screen before him. “So Mack, what else are you hiding from me?” He said to himself as he started to look at the info.

Meanwhile, on the way Elkon Research to pick up her car, Mack gave Pepper a call and both agreed to meet at their favorite café for lunch at noon. After going home to clean up, running back to the hospital to check on Jenna and a few errands, it was time to meet up with Pepper. Pepper was waiting at an outside table for her when she arrived. Mack saw that she was on her phone talking to someone.

“She’s here. I need to go. Ok. Ok. Bye.” Mack heard as she walked up to the table. Pepper hung up her phone and placed it in her purse. “Never guess who that was.” Pepper said with a smirk.

“My new best friend?” Mack said sarcastically.

“Hey, you were the one who decided to go home with him.” Pepper said.

“Excuse me?! You left me there.” Mack replied.

“No, I was there until 1 am. I watched you watch out the door with him.”

“Really?” Mack replied with disbelief. “Really? He told me that you could not find me so you left, and that he promised you that when he saw me he would make sure I got home.”

“Classic Tony. So did you have a good time?” Pepper said smirking.

“If you want to call doing a transplant a good time, then I had a fantastic time. He gave me a ride to the hospital. But I couldn’t get him to leave, even after I told him off. He was still there when I finished so he insisted that he take me home, somehow I ended up in his bed. Where I slept and I mean sleep for at least 18 hours. But here’s the best part, when I woke up, my godfather was there. And you want to know something, he doesn’t like Tony.” Mack said chuckling.

“How did you determine that?”

Soon a waiter was at their table and they placed their orders. As soon as he left Mack continued.
“Simple, Nick told me. He called Tony the enemy right in front of him. Mack said matter of factly. Pepper chuckled.

“Just be careful. This is Tony Stark your dealing with. Known genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist. But right now he isn’t the most stable person.” Pepper said.

“You forgot egoistical, manic depressive and narcissistic. I know. He’s a player. And he thinks I’m the one he going to play. What he doesn’t know is that I’m the one holding all that cards right now. I’m not going to sleep with him, now or ever. Besides he’s not my type.” Mack said.

“He’s everyone’s type Mack.” Pepper reminded her.

"He's not mine. I think that he just needs someone to talk with, confide in and trust. He's lost and needs to find his way again." Mack took in a deep breath. "Can we change the subject? How's Happy?"

Mack and Pepper continued to converse and eat, unknown that they were being watched by two pairs of eyes.
