Who: Remy and Tony
What: Comforting Tony and fixing him up
When: Tonight sometime after Pepper pushes Tony down the stairs.
Where: At their place
Warnings: Dunno.

Remy came down to the workshop, being as quiet as she could, though she didn't want to scare him or anything. She looked around for him, wondering exactly where Tony was. He was hurt, and though she should be angry, she just wanted him to feel better. She had a bag in her hands, full of doctorish supplies that would be needed to fix him up. She also had another couple of shots of morphine for him.

"Tony?"

"No, not cuts. Just bruises, mostly." He knew what broken ribs felt like so he was certain he didn't have any of those. He'd be fine once he got upstairs and into bed. Then he could just stretch out and fall asleep. "I've gone and made a mess of your first Mother's Day." Not that it was a surprise he'd done something like that. "I think I can walk upstairs just fine." He took her hand in his and pulled her a little closer so he could kiss her lightly on the lips. "Promise me that no matter what, you'll always be with me." Because one of the biggest fears he had was being alone.

"Don't worry about mother's day.. I've had.. shitty mothers day's my whole life and I wasn't even a mother.." she gave a crooked little grin and then leaned in and kissed him gently on the lips. "I promise I'm not going anywhere until you get rid of me.. I wouldn't leave you alone.." she took his hand and helped him up out of his chair and then grabbed up her bag so that she could take them upstairs. "Need anything before I put you into bed?"

"But you deserved your first one as a mother to be special, and here I am, the eternal fuck up, taking it away from you." He wouldn't dare bring up what Pepper had said about how he disgusted her and every hateful thing that had stung that she'd said. He returned her kiss over and over, "I'm never going to get rid of you ever." He whispered 'I love you' in her ear and stood up as straight as he could. "Probably an ice pack for my ribs and you in bed with me. That's all I need."

Remy shrugged her shoulders, "There will be others.. it's not like my daughter remembered.. she's just like you.." she smirked a bit and then helped him head across the floor so they could take the elevator upstairs. "I'll get you ice then.. come on.." she pushed the button and took him upstairs and then moved him to get into bed. "Into bed with you.. I'll get your pajamas.. and the ice.." she left him to his own devices so that she could go and get the things he needed.

He really didn't feel like he deserved the good woman he married. It was as if every wrong thing he could have done had compiled on him at once. He watched as she left the bedroom and flopped down on their bed, managing to jostle his arm in the process. Good thing the anesthetic had yet to wear off. He'd started to take off the rest of his clothing, stripping down to just his boxers, then wandered into the bathroom to clean up more. As he wiped off all of the dried blood, he paused to look at himself in the mirror, truly surprised at the state of himself. His skin was paler than normal and he saw the various degrees of bruising along his ribs with one dark one peaking out from the top of his boxers. His face and eyes were red from the tears he'd shed over his lost friend.

Once he'd finished cleaning, he ambled back over to the bed and crawled into the center of it, his limbs sticking out from him haphazardly across the bed, sighing as he just stared at the ceiling.

She should have complained about him getting undressed and everything else by himself, but she didn't really have the heart to chastize him. He looked so broken and she didn't think there was anything she could do. She felt awful, just not as awful as he apparently did. Finally she crawled into bed with him, though she didn't move up beside him just yet. She looked nervous, "What can I do? Is there anything I can do?" she just wanted him to feel better. But he wouldn't, not with Pepper. Maybe she did some of this herself, getting angry and jealous for no reason.

She sighed a little and gave him the ice, letting him put it where he needed it and then went to help him get into his pajama bottoms. "Anything else I can get you before we begin this moratorium of staying in bed for three whole days?"

"I don't need anything but you," he replied as he took the ice from her and set it next to him on the bed, then working his pajamas up his hips and on. "I just want to lay here with you and forget the stupid fucking world for one day at least." Once he'd settled back, he picked up the ice and laid it on his hip, that spot in particular hurting more than his sides. At this particular juncture of his day, he wasn't sure what he wanted from anyone.

	"All right then.." something about the whole thing really made her want to run away. And she didn't know why. Self-sacrifice, wasn't that what someone had told her. She was way too self-sacrificing. Instead of lying down, she went to get the morphine shot, "Do you want this now? Maybe you should get some rest. You should sleep.." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"No, I don't want the morphine shot. I don't want to sleep. I just want to lay here with you. Is that so much to ask now?" Shit, he'd snapped and he hadn't meant to but he was just tired. Was everyone going to avoid him now? Was she lying when she said she wasn't mad at him? As much as he was in pain, he ignored it and sat straight up, his hands propping him up on the bed. "Tell me if you are mad with me or hurt or ....any number of things. Just tell me if we're not alright right now. I need to know." And there was a pleading sort of look in his eyes that just begged her to be straight with him.

Pursing her lips together, she remained silent and put the syringe on her side of the bed. For a while she didn't say anything because she didn't know what to say. Eventually she decided to tell him that, "I don't know, Tony.." she said honestly. "I'm really not mad.. and I'm not hurt. I'm just.. I feel bad for her. Maybe too bad." she rubbed the back of her head, "I'm going to die, Tony.. eventually.. sooner then you will. And before that I'm going to be.. a total shell of myself. Sophie could have it.. the baby could have it.." she didn't know where she was going with it, so she just trailed off and shrugged.

Tony just stared at her, and he could just feel his eyes rim with tears again. He never liked to think about her dying, especially from the disease that would eventually plague her. He'd lost Pepper, and he would lose Remy too someday, to something he couldn't control or change. Then he'd be alone all over again. And he didn't even have words for the feelings raging through him when she'd said that.

"Why do you have to die and leave me behind?" and the question came out half like a child who didn't understand death and half like a man who wanted to fight his wife's fate. He looked down at the blankets. "Why can't I find some way to fix it or stop it or..." but as brilliant as he was, he couldn't beat her genetics.

Remy opened her mouth but words didn't come out for a while and eventually she just shook her head, "I don't know why.. I wish I did.. it's not.." she didn't know. She sat down on the edge of the bed, "I'm not going to remember you.. or the kids.. I won't know who you are.. and you'll have to do everything for me pretty much and I mean.. everything.. I never wanted you to have to do that. It was so hard on my Mom.. and on us.." she let out a breath.

She wiped at her eyes, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring this all up and it's not fair I just.. I keep feel like I've .. wormed my way in and then dumped all this on your lap and I feel like I should just run.. I can't.. I won't.. I just.." she shook her head again.

He knew it'd kill him when she reached the point where he was unrecognizable to her, but he would be prepared when that time came. "That doesn't matter to me. You know I would do anything for you. Even if I have to carry you everywhere, chew your food up...whatever." Pulling her closer to him, he wrapped his arms around her, fingers tracing up and down her back. "You know you couldn't run. I'd find you in a heartbeat. You didn't force yourself on me. If I had known in the beginning you had this disease, I wouldn't have turned my back on you." He pulled away and looked into her eyes, his hand smoothing over her cheek. "I love you, okay? For better or worse, sickness and in health, remember?" No matter how much Tony was in pain or upset, Remy's feelings would always take precedent.

"I know it doesn't matter to you.. but it matters to me. You didn't have to grow up with it.. you've no idea.. you've seen the videos and whatever but you.. don't know, Tony.." she let him pull her up against him. "Maybe you're right, but ..." she swallowed, "If she'd been here, you wouldn't have batted an eyelash.. okay that's not true, you would have for a night," she teased just barely, "But.. it's not that I don't believe you love me.. I do.. but I know you love her.." she looked away from him and put her hand on her stomach, "Your son's awake.. ow.. tell him to stop kicking me in the side.. he listens to you apparently.. through the womb.."

And there it was. He'd been waiting for her to say that. Pepper hated him for having said it, and he wondered if Remy resented him for feeling that way. He ran his hand through his hair. "I do love her, but I love you, too. That won't ever change. I'll always love both of you." Shame filled him when he admitted that, not because he loved Pepper too, but because he didn't devote his entire heart to his wife, who should have always been first in his life now. Lightly, he pressed his hand to her stomach and rubbed softly to try and soothe their son. "Shhh. Your mother is going to lay down right now and stop moving so much because Daddy upset her."

It didn't seem like she resented him, she wasn't mad of course. She said so. There wasn't any resentment, just, she didn't know. At least he admitted it to her or didn't try and deny it. So she just nodded her head. The baby seemed to listen to him, it settled down a bit, but he was still active, just not kicking. "Thanks.." she mumbled, and settled back into the bed. She was still for a moment before sitting up, "Do you want ice cream? I think I need ice cream.."

Now he knew she was just avoiding whatever was wrong, but he wasn't going to press the issue. "I'm not hungry." And he knew ice cream was their thing for fixing when they were mad or upset about something in their household. "You go on and get some for yourself, honey. I'll wait for you here." Not like he was moving much as it were. He slid back on the bed and propped himself up with pillows, putting the ice back on his hip, wincing from the cold but soon settling down.

Okay, that wasn't good. Really not good. Now they were both sulking and she didn't want to cry or do anything else. She got up and went to get herself some ice cream. Poor Sophie, having to put up with seriously retarded parents. She came back a couple of moments later with her ice cream and set it to the side so she could crawl into bed. This time she did move up next to him, "I'm sorry.. I guess there's nothing anyone can do about any of this right? It is how it is.. but I don't want it to be this way.. I don't want you to be upset.. I'd do anything to make you not upset.." she told him quietly and then leaned in and kissed him on the lips.

"I don't want it to be this way, either..." and he trailed off. He didn't want to be upset, he didn't want to upset her, because it was her and the fact she was pregnant. When she crawled up next to him, he could feel his heart beat faster just because he wanted her next to him, in his arms, their lives not turned as upside down as it was. "I'll be fine eventually," he said, kissing her in return, his fingers curling into her hair lightly. "You're soon going to be too big to make love to," he said as his other hand ran across the bulge of her belly, patting it and he felt a small kick to his hand.

Glad that he was actually kissing her back, she kissed him just a bit harder, if only to show him that she loved him and wasn't going anywhere. "By the time you feel better and are all healed up, you're not going to get a chance to, you're right.." she sighed a bit, "Thank you for making him kick me again.." she smirked. "At least that time he didn't kick anything important. You know.. even when he's not kicking I can tell when he's awake? And where he is.."

"Nonsense. I could have sex in a coma," he quipped as he smiled into their kiss. "That's my son, driving his mother crazy just like me. Chip off the old block, my boy." Tony seemed to be in better spirits now, especially since he was joking around. "I'm sorry. I can make him settle down again, though I think if I made love to you, it'd just wake him up again." He kissed her again, "Yeah? How can you tell?" he asked, curious if that was just a motherly instinct or not.

She smirked, "Don't make me ever find that out.. hey does that mean if you.. are in a coma that I can come in and have sex with you and won't get in trouble?" that was just a very scary place her brain went to and she winced, "Sorry, that was bad.. yep, a complete chip off the old block.. listens to you more then me. I think all our kids are just going to ignore me," she snorted a bit. Then she kissed him back because she wanted to keep kissing him, but she wasn't sure if he was really up for it. "Actually lots of movement puts him to sleep.. so the opposite. It's when I settle down it wakes him up.. um.. well.. purely as a doctor, I can feel his heartbeat slow down when he's asleep.. and.. when he puts his head here.." she took his hand and put it on the other side of her stomach. "And his feet here," she moved his hand again, "That means it's time for bed.."

"Ill-timed, I think, but not a bad one. But you'd have to do all of the work if I was in a coma or maybe it'd wake me from the coma. Wouldn't that be a miracle cure?" His joke wasn't much better. "Sophie doesn't ignore you. She loves you very much. I think the two of you just haven't figured out things you have in common, except insulting my armor with glitter," he said, giving her a pointed glance. "Is he in position for bedtime or should we rock him to sleep?" he grinned, chewing on the corner of his lip before pulling her on top of him, the ice sliding off of his bruised hip.

Remy shrugged a little, "She's a teenager. She doesn't want to spend time with her parents, she wants to make out with boys. You're an exception because she likes the same things you do .. I was god awful when I was her age, and I'm sure you were too.." she smirked back at him. "Uh.. well considering his feet are over there where your hand was, I'd say.. we should rock him to sleep.." she oof'd slightly when she was pulled on top of him. "Oh yes.." she giggled, "Because I can lay on top of you..if he comes out with a squished head it's your fault.." she muttered before kissing him slowly and moving herself so she was straddling him instead of on top.

"I wasn't too bad at her age. I was in college then, trying to rush through my courses so I could claim my father's legacy. I didn't really have a chance to be a kid like her." Which only brought up thoughts of his father, and how much he missed him and never got the chance to say goodbye. But then she was straddling him and she looked much happier than she had the entire night. Moments like this were the best reminders of why he'd chosen her. "I'll build him a new head then, and he can end up my arch nemesis." He plucked the ice pack away from them and tossed it to the floor out of the way, his hands going right to her hips. "I love you, and I love him and i love Sophie, and nothing will change that or take me away from any of you," he said, letting his hands push under her shirt to rub her stomach.
