Pepper was more than a little miffed about being stood up for the date that she didn't even want to go on in the first place. She had actually given in to that asshole. Sure, it had only been to get him to shut up about it, to placate him, but he could at least have the decency to show up instead of leaving her waiting by the door in a fancy dress. It was cruel. She knew Mr. Stark could be cold, but she didn't know just how cold until that moment.
Mr. Stark never really showed up to board meetings, even when they were at nice restaurants, so Pepper didn't think twice about going. She had a proposal on the table for a new wing at CHOC, so it was important she show up and do the necessary schmoozing. So, when she walked in to the 7th Door about fifteen minutes early Tony Stark was the last person she wanted or expected to see.
"Boy, you really got some nerve showing your face here," Pepper said, not even looking Tony in the eye as she sat down next to him at the bar to wait for the rest of the board members.
