It didn't take Tony long to find the barn once he figured out that his phone had a map of the island on it. This phone was amazing and he was definitely going to keep it for when he got back home. There was a part of him that wanted to keep it for himself, but he knew he'd just end up showing it to his dad. Then Howard would take all the credit for it, as usual.

He walked into the barn and immediately sneezed. Something about the hay and the humidity. He didn't do outdoors very well. His time was spent in a lab or in a classroom. Or in his dorm room. Barns were where you took people to get rid of the body. His eyes went wide as he looked around and suddenly he didn't think it was such a good idea. But she had sounded nice so obviously he was just being paranoid, right? He suddenly desperately wished that his body guard had accompanied him to this strange place.

She had sounded nice enough, though. And she knew who he was, though that wasn't a stretch. Thanks to Howard most people did. He found a stack of hay bales that looked like a good place to sit and did exactly that, setting his bag beside him. It was full of books that he apparently wasn't going to need for a while.

	"I....um...." He cleared his throat. There wasn't much blood flowing to his brain just that moment. He looked down at his suit, still not sure why he was wearing it. "No, that's fine. We can go to the loft." He pulled off his jacket and undid his tie, setting them beside his bag. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh he wasn't help her little nibble of evil at all. Applejack was liking the reactions she was getting out of him just a little too much. She waited until he'd stripped himself of his jacket and tie, and she had his attention again, before she started climbing the ladder.

"There's blankets and stuff up here, so it's a bit more comfortable than it is down there." She glanced back, to be sure he was watching her. Yep, this was too fun.

	Tony made his way over to the ladder and couldn't help but stare at her ass. It was very nice. "Um, yeah." He nodded and then started to slowly make his way up the ladder. He actually had to concentrate on the simple task. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Applejack settled the bag down once she reached the top, and went over to open the hay drop door. She was turning back toward him as he reached the top, a nice breeze came through the open door. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"This is really nice." He nodded, then mentally cursed himself. It was a hayloft, it wasn't nice. He shook the thought away as he came up into the loft. "That breeze is great." He undid a couple of buttons on his shirt and rolled up the sleeves to his elbows. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yeah, I like to take naps up here." If it were anyone else, she wouldn't have been acting like this. She would have been bashful and blushy. But she was married to this man, so it was easy to flirt and tease. Moving over to the pile of blankets she shook one out and lay it over a soft patch of well worn unbaled hay. "Snag that bag?" She'd left it pretty close to the top of the ladder.

	"Yeah, sure." He nodded and grabbed the bag, bringing it over to the blanket. "I could see napping up here." He suddenly wished he'd had a barn somewhere on the estate to nap in because it sounded like the best idea ever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She settled down across part of the blanket on her stomach, her knees bent slightly so the heels of her boots settled in the air just over her backside. "Would you do it in your skin?" AJ wanted to see him blush, so she teased. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aedwardstark 2015-09-06 05:34 am UTC (link)
	"You mean....naked?" He cleared his throat and he did blush a little bit. Tony at seventeen was a very big difference to the man she married. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	applejack_ 2015-09-06 05:49 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, best way to take a nap." The teasing was clear in her tone, a devilish little grin playing over her lips. "Especially on a real hot day." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aedwardstark 2015-09-06 05:50 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, I mean. I could see the reasoning behind it if it were hot. I have slept naked a couple of times when the AC was out in the dorm." He cleared his throat, blushing a bit more. Had he just admitted that out loud? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	applejack_ 2015-09-06 05:57 am UTC (link)
	"Well you're welcome to try sleepin' up here naked, whenever you want." From what he'd told her on the CB he hadn't had many girls hit on him the way she was. So she let her eyes drift over him, slowly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I....um.....thanks." He scratched the back of his neck. He could really have used something to drink just then but instead he looked at the bag. "So...looks like more than just coffee in there." He needed to change the subject. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	applejack_ 2015-09-06 06:08 am UTC (link)
	"I'll quit teasin'." Applejack promised. "Yeah the stripey thermos is my tea, the black one is coffee, and there's cream and sugar, and a few spoons." And there was a ziplock stuffed full of cookies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aedwardstark 2015-09-06 06:11 am UTC (link)
	Tony smiled at her a little bit before going through the bag and getting the black thermos. As soon as he spotted the cookies, he opened up the ziplock and took a big sniff, sighing happily before pulling a cookie out and taking a bite. "These are really good." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	applejack_ 2015-09-06 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Applejack smiled proudly. "I made 'em. There's just a little bit of apple in the middle." She wondered if he noticed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aedwardstark 2015-09-06 06:22 am UTC (link)
	"They're really, really good." He popped the rest of the cookie in his mouth and grabbed another one. "I wondered what that was, but couldn't quite place it." He smiled, opening up his thermos and taking a little sip of the coffee. He had visibly relaxed and shifted so that he was laying on his side, propped on an elbow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I brought 'em over just for you." AJ beamed. Pleased that he liked them so much. Knowing he probably didn't get many homemade treats. She propped her chin in her hands. "Reckon you wanna talk more about what we were talkin' about on the CB?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Thanks." He smiled. He took another sip of coffee before he sighed a little. He closed up the thermos and set it down, laying on his back and staring up at the barn roof. His brain was already going over the various mathematical equations necessary to make the building so it would stay standing.

"About the girls?" The last word was said in a tone that was less than flattering.

	applejack_ 2015-09-06 07:07 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, or girls in general." Applejack swept her braid over her shoulder and started toying with the end. She had a feeling he needed to get a few things off of his chest. Especially with the way he had said 'girls'. "Or anything you wanna talk about, I'm all ears." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Tony sighed again. "The biggest problem is that I started college when I was fourteen. So there are all these eighteen and older girls around and they just kind of adopted me. I soaked it in because, I mean, what fourteen year old boy wouldn't, you know?" He blushed a bit. "But as I got older, it didn’t change. And now, even though I'm almost the same age as the freshman, it still hasn't. I still get treated like the little brother."

He rolled so that he could look at her. "Then there's the fact that first day of school I was a freshman and by the end of the first semester I was a junior. Then by the end of the second semester, I had three different bachelor's degrees."

It wasn't bragging, it was just fact. Most people seemed to take it as bragging, though. And he was expecting the same treatment from her because of it.

"I bet that made it right hard for you to fit in. Did they resent you, ya think?" She could see how people could. Not having the advantage of such a fast moving mind like he had. They no doubt had problems with things that he just whizzed through.

Applejack didn't, she never could have. She loved his marvelous brain, and how it worked. Even if she didn't understand half the things he did. It was almost like he was magic. Even if he wasn't.

"Oh they definitely resent me. Until they want me to do their homework for them." He shrugged. "That's the way it works, really. And it's not helping at all that I've managed to complete about 12 years worth of college in three." He ran his fingers through his hair. "I usually just test out of most of my classes. The only reasons it's even taking me this long is because I have to do my doctorate thesis and that takes forever." He groaned. He just wanted it to be over so that he could leave the school.

	"What are ya getting you goin' for?" His groan made her grin. He was cute. She kicked her legs a little. "And you're not really doin' their homework for 'em are you?" Applejack hoped he'd tell them to stuff it. Especially if they were going to treat him the way they were. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He looked over at her with a pained look on his face. "Maybe a couple of them, but they only got a C on it." He shook his head. "I hate school. I have always hated school. Since I got shipped off to boarding school I have hated it. I want to get out as quickly as I can. Just happens that I can get out faster than everybody else." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
